BJP govt in MP has `commercialised’ administration: Digvijaya Singh

[ad_1]
Bhopal: Congress leader Digvijaya Singh on Saturday accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government in Madhya Pradesh of `commercialising’ the administrative system.
A minister in BJP-ruled Karnataka had to resign due to accusations of corruption, but the BJP gave him ticket again for Assembly elections, he said, speaking to reporters at Jawad in Neemuch district.
“Commercialisation of the administrative system is the BJP’s way of functioning as it believes in khoob khao aur khoob khilao" (take bribe and give bribe) though the prime minister had saidna khaunga na khane dunga’ (won’t take bribe, won’t allow others to take bribe),” Singh said.

The former chief minister cited a recent case where a Janpad Panchayat president was held while accepting bribe from a sarpanch.
He also alleged that government was recruiting some people without conducting even interviews.
Asked for a reaction, MP BJP secretary Rajneesh Agrawal said Madhya Pradesh has achieved hundred per cent targets in several flagship public welfare schemes and other states are imitating it.
It was the BJP government that decided to use the direct benefit transfer (DBT) system, but Singh can not understand all this as he symbolised the worst governance the state had, Agrawal said.

Maha govt to install 10,000 rain-measuring devices to get accurate weather data

[ad_1]
Aurangabad: As many as 10,000 rain measuring devices will be installed across Maharashtra, which will provide accurate information about weather in real time, state Minister Abdul Sattar said on Saturday.
The state currently has 2,200 rainfall measuring devices, but the government is planning to take this figure to 10,000, Sattar told reporters after a pre-Kharif season meeting here.
Talking to PTI, Agriculture Commissioner Sunil Chavan said, “This project is under consideration and we are planning to install 10,000 rain-measuring devices in the state. One machine will be installed for four gram panchayats. The machine will not only provide data about rainfall, but also about wind velocity and other aspects of weather.”

A private company will be roped in for the project, while the state government will provide land for it, he said, adding that the company will also be free to share the data with crop insurance companies.
“The state will witness 96 per cent rainfall in the upcoming monsoon season. There will be no scarcity as such of rains this year. The state government will ensure that there is no shortage of urea, seeds and other essentials,” Sattar said.
In another initiative, drones will be employed to spray nano urea in the state, the minister said.
“At least 500 gm of nano urea, which is an effective equivalent to 50 kg of urea, will be mixed in water and sprayed with the help of drones. Drones will be provided at subsidised rates and operators will be trained at Rahuri Agriculture University for 15 days,” he said.
Speaking about the losses faced by farmers due to unseasonal rains, Sattar said, “Nearly 70 per cent of the crop loss survey has been completed. Once the rains stop in some parts of the state, we finish the remaining survey in a week’s time.”

Maha govt tells SC it has agreed to CBI probe into Palghar lynching case

[ad_1]
New Delhi: The Maharashtra government on Friday told the Supreme Court that it has already recommended a CBI probe into the alleged lynching of three persons in Palghar district in 2020.
Following the state’s submission, the court disposed of four petitions on the issue.
A bench comprising Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justice P S Narasimha took note of the fresh affidavit of the state government that a communication to this effect (regarding the CBI probe) has already been issued by it.

“In view of the decision taken by the state government, no further direction is needed on these petitions at this stage. The petitions are disposed of,” the bench said.
The pleas demanded a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), alleging that the investigation by the state police was being conducted in a biased manner.
Earlier, the erstwhile Maha Vikas Aghadi government had opposed the plea for a CBI probe into the incident. Later, with the change of dispensation, the state government agreed to the demand.
Three people from Kandivali in Mumbai were travelling in a car to attend a funeral in Surat in Gujarat amid the COVID-19-induced nationwide lockdown when their vehicle was stopped and they were attacked and allegedly killed by a mob in Gadchinchile village on the night of April 16, 2020 in the presence of police.
The victims were identified as Chikne Maharaj Kalpavrukshagiri, 70, Sushil Giri Maharaj, 35, and Nilesh Telgade, 30, who was driving the vehicle.

Three First Information Reports were registered at Kasa police station following the incident, naming a total of 256 persons.
The accused against whom charge sheet was filed included 16 juveniles. A total of 44 accused are still in judicial custody.

Why were Atiq, Ashraf ‘paraded’, not taken to hospital directly: SC asks UP govt

[ad_1]
New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday directed the Uttar Pradesh government to submit a status report on steps taken after the killing of gangster-politician Atiq Ahmad and his brother Ashraf in Prayagraj.
A bench of Justices S Ravindra Bhat and Dipankar Datta also sought a report from the UP government on the police encounter of Ahmad’s son Asad in Jhansi.
Asad was killed in an encounter by a special task force (ST) team of the UP Police on April 13.

Two days later, Ahmad and Ashraf were shot dead at point-blank range by three men posing as media persons when they were being taken to a medical college in Prayagraj for a health check-up under police escort.
Referring to the shooting of Atiq and his brother live on TV, the apex court questioned why they were not taken into the van till the hospital, why were they made to walk and paraded before the media?
The top court was hearing a plea, filed by advocate Vishal Tiwari, who has sought an inquiry into the 183 encounters that have taken place in Uttar Pradesh since 2017.
The petitioner stressed that “such actions by police are a severe threat to democracy and rule of law and lead to police state”.
The plea said extra-judicial killings or fake police encounters do not have a place under the law and further argued that in a democratic society the police cannot be allowed to become a mode of delivering final justice, as the power of punishment is only vested in the judiciary.

Delhi govt slams L-G for ‘causing delay’ in school takeover process

[ad_1]
New Delhi: The Delhi government, which is looking forward to takeover the Modern International School here in Dwarka, on Thursday criticised the Lt. Governor, accusing him of not clearing the necessary files, thereby causing a delay to the government’s takeover plans.
The Delhi government decided to takeover the school in December last year, after expressing dissatisfaction with some issues related to the overall functioning of the institute.
The Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP government said that the school was not providing free uniforms and stationary, and was also denying admission to EWS students.

The government said that teachers had been wrongly dismissed while fake and dummy registration were done in Class 11.
The Delhi government took the decision to takeover the school for failing to comply with the Right to Education Act 2009, Delhi School Education Act and Rules 1973.
Chief Minister Kejriwal and then deputy CM Manish Sisodia had earlier said that Education does not come under the purview of the L-G, saying he/she can either give a nod to a proposal or send it to the President.
The Delhi government said “it is quite unfortunate that the file that was sent to the Lt. Governor in January this year is still pending with him, and he is causing a roadblock in the process of takeover”.
Education Minister Atishi again submitted another proposal after the L-G’s observation and a request was made to allow the takeover of the school.

Expressing disappointment, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal again sent a proposal to the L-G regarding the “unnecessary delay”.
The Chief Minister has once again requested L-G V.K. Saxena to give his final opinion on whether he wants to refer the matter to the President.
