    Lobby associated with RSS inciting protesting doctors in Rajasthan: CM

    Kota: Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Saturday alleged that a “lobby” associated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) was inciting and misguiding private doctors agitating against the Right to Health Bill in the state while patients are suffering.

    The protesting doctors have claimed that the execution of the legislation will create hurdles in their smooth functioning and the involvement of local authorities will increase.

    People have been given the right to access health services for free up to Rs 25 lakh as the government will pay for the treatment under the Bill, the chief minister told reporters here when asked about the ongoing strike. He also appealed to the doctors to end their protest.

    “The recommendations given by the doctors to the finance secretary were all agreed upon but later on some four to five doctors, who are associated with the RSS, raised objections. It is not an allegation but the truth that they are people from the RSS,” Gehlot said. He also said the “four to five people, associated with the RSS, who misguided the doctors, are ‘gaddar’ (traitors)”.

    The chief minister claimed that two people came from Delhi and called him up to meet him.

    “They were directed to Finance Secretary Akhil Arora, but instead of meeting with the secretary, the two went to the governor. They after misguiding doctors here, returned to Delhi,” Gehlot said and claimed that the two persons from the national capital are also associated with the RSS.

    The chief minister said that “a lobby of the RSS is ruining doctors, misguiding them…”. The notification for the RTH is yet to be issued and if there are doubts and confusion, they could be cleared, he said.

    “It is not the time for politics as people are suffering and they should immediately end their strike,” Gehlot said

    A delegation of the protesting doctors met the chief minister at the Kota airport. Gehlot listened to the doctors while trying to clear their doubts and appealing to them to end their strike.

  • Migrant labourers attack: Tamil Nadu BJP chief booked for inciting violence

    Migrant labourers attack: Tamil Nadu BJP chief booked for inciting violence

    [ad_1]

    Chennai: A day after Tamil Nadu Bharatiya Janata Party chief K Annamalai held the ruling DMK party responsible for the ongoing stir over alleged attacks on migrant labourers in the state, the police have booked him on charges of inciting violence and promoting enmity between groups.

    The Cyber Crime Division have booked the BJP state unit chief under sections of inciting violence and promoting enmity between groups among others.

    As per officials, a case is also registered against the BJP Bihar Twitter account holder over the incident.

    Annamalai yesterday released a statement on the migrant labourers’ issue saying they are safe in Tamil Nadu but the Chief Minister Stalin led-Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) and its alliance party leaders are the reason for the hate against them.

    He also opposed the spread of false news on the attack on the people from Bihar in the state, saying that Tamils don’t support “separatism” and “vile hatred” against north Indians.

    “It is disheartening to see fake news spread in social media about attacks on Migrant workers in Tamil Nadu. We, the Tamil people, believe in the concept of “The World is One” and do not endorse the separatism and vile hatred against our North Indian friends,” Annamalai said in a series of tweets.

    Hitting out at the state government, he said, “DMK’s MPs’ vile comments on North Indians, DMK minister calling them Panipuri Wala, and their alliance partners demanding their exodus has triggered what we see today.”

    He further said that the people, the Government and the police, do not endorse the views of DMK and their alliance partners.
    Besides, Annamalai, the Tamil Nadu police have also booked four persons including a BJP spokesperson Prashant Umrao and two journalists.

    Prashant Umrao, an Editor with Dainik Bhaskar, a Patna-based journalist, owner of ‘Tanvir Post’ Twitter handle Mohammad Tanvir, and Shubam Shukla were booked at different police stations on the charges of spreading “false” news regarding attacks on migrant labourers in Tamil Nadu.

    A statewide panic was created among migrant workers, working in Tamil Nadu, after several purported videos, showing attacks on migrant workers, circulated on social media.

    The panic was triggered after Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Thursday, raised concerns and took note of the purported videos of “attacks”.

    The panic affected the industries in Tamil Nadu, which rely on migrant workers, badly as many workers stayed off work.

    Taking cognizance of the panic, Tamil Nadu’s Director General of Police Sylendra Babu released a statement, saying that the video doing rounds of social media was “false” and “mischievous”.

    “Somebody in Bihar posted false and mischievous videos saying that migrant workers were attacked in Tamil Nadu. Two videos were posted. Both are false as these incidents happened at an earlier date in Tiruppur and Coimbatore. One was a clash between two groups of migrant workers from Bihar while another was from a clash between two local residents in Coimbatore,” the top cop said.

    The DGP also said that the persons behind this rumour-driven panic will not be spared.
