Khattar announces bus service to Haryana village after elderly woman complains

[ad_1]
Chandigarh: Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar’s visit on Wednesday to Thana in Kurukshetra has ensured that government buses now won’t skip the stop at the village.
During an interaction with Thana villagers as part of the ‘Jan Samvad’ programme, an elderly woman complained about buses not stopping there and Khattar took action, according to a government statement.
From now, Khattar said, at least eight buses from Pehowa and Kurukshetra depots would stop in the village and for the convenience of the villagers, the timings of the buses will be mentioned at bus stops.

The chief minister directed the Haryana Roadways general manager, Kurukshetra, to prepare a 12-hour route chart for the buses, and instruct the drivers and conductors to stop the buses on the fixed routes of Thana.
During ‘Jan Samvad’, two village residents told the chief minister that they were charged Rs 20,000-Rs 25,000 for treatment at private hospitals despite being covered under the Ayushman Bharat scheme.
On this, Khattar ordered the civil surgeon, Kurukshetra to investigate the entire matter and take appropriate action.
Pehowa MLA and Minister of State for Printing and Stationery Sandeep Singh also attended the ‘Jan Samvad’ programme.
Interacting with people in Kurukshetra’s Barna village, Khattar said sarpanches must hold meetings of the Gram Sabha once in three months.

Khattar said the ‘Jan Samvad’ programme is the best medium to take feedback from the public and see if the benefits of government policies and schemes are reaching the people.
He also met members of self-help groups (SHGs) in the village.
There are nearly 30 SHGs in Barna.
In Kurukshetra’s Karah Sahib village, the chief minister said public welfare policies will be framed on the basis of suggestions received through ‘Jan Samvad’.
The new policies will be in accordance with the hopes and aspirations of the people, he said.
Khattar started the ‘Jan Samvad’ programme in Rohtak district last year. Later, the programme was organised in Sirsa, Sonipat, Karnal, Fatehabad, Bhiwani and Palwal districts.
His three-day ‘Jan Samvad’ programme in Kurukshetra district concluded on Wednesday.

TN church priest held after nursing student complains of sexual abuse

[ad_1]
Chennai: A Church priest in Kanyakumari was arrested on Monday over alleged sexual abuse of a nursing student.
Based on a complaint from the nursing student, the Kanniyakumari police had registered a case against Benedict Anto but he was absconding since the past couple of days.
Sources in Kanyakumari police told IANS that he was arrested from a farmhouse in Nagercoil this morning.
Notably, scandalous videos of the priest exposing himself to women had gone viral on social media.
A few days ago, the priest was assaulted by a group of people and his laptop taken away. However, he did not file any police complaint against his attackers.
A couple of days after the laptop was seized, intimate scenes of Anto with young women appeared on social media sites.
The priest had earlier filed a false complaint against a youth, Austin Gino, and had sent him to jail.
Gino had earlier filed a complaint against the priest for having sent lewd messages and trying to sexually exploit a medical student who was a friend of Austin.

Anto had resigned from the post of parish priest earlier and will soon be replaced by another priest.

Mukul Sangma complains of life threat, security beefed up outside house

[ad_1]
Shillong: Trinamool Congress leader and former Meghalaya Chief Minister claimed that some National People’s Party (NPP) supporters have threatened his life.
In a letter to Chief Secretary D.P. Wahlang, Sangma said that certain NPP backers had allegedly threatened to set his home on fire as punishment for the ongoing events surrounding the creation of the state’s government.
“Deliberate incitement to spread hatred and do personal harm upon me being aggressively done. People engaged in the criminal conspiracy are inciting to create communal riots and personal harm to me. Just reported to the CS to take action as per law,” he said.
The state government has beefed security outside his home as a result.
Sangma received the threats as he held talks with Congress and other regional parties barring the NPP to form the next government in Meghalaya.
According to sources, one social media user on Facebook encouraged people to visit Sangma’s home and throw stones while also burning effigies. A few others also wrote in favour of violence.
In the 60-member house, the National People’s Party (NPP) won 26 seats, while the BJP got two. The United Democratic Party (UDP) got 11 seats, while the Congress and Trinamool Congress each won five, while the rest were won by regional parties and independents.

Bengal MP complains of getting threats for protesting against coal smuggling

[ad_1]
Kolkata: Dibyendu Adhikari, two-time Trinamool Congress Lok Sabha MP and younger brother of leader of opposition in West Bengal Assembly Suvendu Adhikari, alleged on Saturday that he is receiving life threats over phone for raising his voice against coal smuggling in the Haldia Dock Complex which comes under his constituency in East Midnapore district.
Adhikari levelled the allegations on the the same day his father and three-time Lok Sabha MP, Sisir Kumar Adhikari, wrote to Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman about a fictitious bank account opened in his name without his knowledge at a public sector bank in the district.
Although both Sisir Adhikari and Dibyendu Adhikari continue to be Trinamool Congress MPs as per Lok Sabha records, their connection with the party snapped since Suvendu Adhikari joined the BJP from the Trinamool before the 2021 Assembly polls.
On Saturday, Dibyendu Adhikari told mediapersons that late on January 24 night, a Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) assistant commandant was injured in clashes with coal smugglers operating in the dock area in Haldia.
“As the local Lok Sabha member, I informed the matter to Home Minister Amit Shah. I also raised my voice demanding greater coordination between the CISF and the local police to check the menace of coal smuggling in the dock area. Since then, I have been receiving regular threat calls on my mobile,” he said.
However, Adhikari added that he is not scared by the threat calls.
“I will continue doing my duty as Tamluk MP as long as I continue in that chair,” he said.
However, Adhikari said that he has not filoed an official complaint with the local police on this count.

“I had approached the local police on many issues before, but the problems were not solved. So what is the point in informing the police on this matter,” he asked.
Trinamool Rajya Sabha member Santanu Sen said that levelling such ‘wild’ allegations without informing the police is meaningless.
“He should come clean first on his current political stand. He has maintained liaison with the BJP while continuing as a Trinamool member officially. Why didn’t he resign first as an MP,” Sen asked.

Cong team meets EC, complains about violence against Oppn candidates in Tripura

[ad_1]
New Delhi: A Congress delegation headed by party general secretary Mukul Wasnik met Election Commission officials on Wednesday and complained about violence in Tripura, alleging that Congress workers were being targeted by the ruling party.
The Congress alleged that it’s party candidates and supporters were being attacked by the BJP cadres.
The Congress is contesting the Tripura election in alliance with the Left parties which were unseated by the BJP in the last election.
Tripura goes to the polls on Thursday.
Unlike the previous elections, triangular or multi-cornered contests would be witnessed in 57 seats between the Bharatiya Janata Party-Indigenous People’s Front of Tripura alliance and the Congress-CPI(M) led Left Front coalition.
Straight contests between the BJP and the opposition alliance are on the cards in three Assembly segments — Barjala in Agartala, Jubarajnagar in north Tripura and Sabroom in south Tripura.
The influential Tipra Motha Party, which is now governing the politically important Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council, is contesting 42 seats, 22 beyond the areas inhabited by the tribals, who constitute one third of Tripura’s over four million population.

Rebel MLA of YSRCP complains to Centre over phone tapping

[ad_1]
Amaravati: Rebel MLA of Andhra Pradesh’s ruling YSR Congress Party (YSRCP), Kotam Sridhar Reddy has complained to the Union Home Ministry about phone tapping.
The MLA from Nellore Rural constituency, who raised a banner of revolt against the party with the allegation of phone tapping, said on Wednesday that he has written a letter to the Union Home Ministry, seeking a probe.
He said after getting an appointment, he would visit Delhi and personally meet home ministry officials to submit the details.
Sridhar Reddy said ever since he stated that his phone was being tapped, ministers and YSRCP leaders started criticising him. He alleged that he was receiving threatening calls.
Alleging that false cases were being booked against him, the MLA said he was not afraid of cases and was determined to continue his fight without bothering about the consequences.
The MLA reiterated that his phone tapping started after he raised people’s issues and spoke about roads, drinking water and other civic problems in his constituency.
He had earlier stated that phone tapping was not possible without orders from the chief minister.
He claimed that four months ago an Indian Police Service (IPS) official had told him that his phone was being tapped but he did not believe this as he was not indulging in any illegal business or anti-party activity. He said he later found evidence of his phone being tapped.

Sridhar Reddy also made it clear that he would not stay in the party where he was looked with suspicion.
YSRCP leaders have dismissed the allegation of Sridhar Reddy and claimed that he was trying to join Telugu Desam Party (TDP).
