    How BJP MLA Raja Singh is bypassing his gag order on hate speech

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: Hit with a gag order from the Telangana High Court, suspended Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA T Raja Singh seems to be subverting his restrictions by passing communal and inflammatory remarks from outside the state. The legislator is currently out on bail after he was arrested for his derogatory remarks in Prophet Muhammad last year, which led to several protests.

    The High Court had ordered Raja Singh while quashing his detention in jail under the PD Act last year. As part of its bail order, the BJP MLA was told not to make provocative speeches or speak in public. So far, a case has already been registered against him in recent times for violating the court orders (with theMangalhat police station). He was served another notice by the Hyderabad police on January 29 for a hate speech in Mumbai.

    His statements come just months ahead of the Telangana state elections, which are due this year. With restrictions on him, Raja Singh is currently unable to carry out political campaigns or hold public rallies as he would have ideally done in the run up to the polls. It is unsure how the state judiciary will react to him making speeches outside, with the logic that it is beyond the HC’s jurisdiction.

    The suspended MLA represents the Goshamahal constituency under the GHMC area in Hyderabad.

    When asked if the party will lift Raja Singh’s suspension, BJP leaders from Telangana remained tight lipped and said that the decision is for the central leadership to make. “He is popular among some people and they want his suspension to go, so we have to wait and see,” said one leader.

    After his Mumbai speech, it is to be seen what Raja Singh does next or if he legally challenges his current inability to speak in public in Hyderabad and Telangana.

    Raja Singh’s hate speech came at a rally in Mumbai at a programme organised by the Sakal Hindu Samaj, a conglomerate of Hindutva organisations under the banner of the Hindu Jan Aakrosh Morcha. It commenced from Shivaji Park in Dadar and ended at Kamgar Maidan in Parel.

    The Sakal Hindu Samaj is an organization comprising of various groups like Vishwa Hindu Parishad, Bajrang Dal, Hindu Janajagruti Samiti and Sanatan Sanstha. As of now, the MLA has not made any plans public, neither is the Telangana unit of the BJP saying anything on the issue.

    However, one can expect some fireworks from his side in the upcoming state polls.

    During his speech in the public meeting held at T Kamgar Maidan, Raja Singh used repeated his typical aggressive rant and provocative language. This time around his comments were about the inter-faith love affairs. “The chingari (spark) that is lit here will turn into a jwalamukhi (volcano) if love and land Jihad is not stopped. Be aware about ‘love jihad’ and (religious) conversions,” he said while addressing the gathering.

    The MLA targeted Muslims and demanded for a financial boycott, “Do not buy goods with ‘halal’ tags on them. Even in Ola, Uber and Rapido check if the driver is a Muslim or a tilakdhari. Doesn’t matter if the commodity is of Rs 1 or Rs. 1 lakh, buy it from a Hindu. If the word halal is mentioned in any product, it should not be purchased,” he said demanding that even Ramdev baba remove the word from the products he sells.

    “Why should we have rules that are meant for Islamic countries,” he questioned. He spoke in praise of Shivaji Maharaj, his son Sambhaji and the late Shiv Sena head Bal Thackeray.

    The suspended BJP MLA was detained under the Preventive Detention (PD) Act by the Hyderabad police last year. After spending nearly three months in the Central Prison, Cherlapally, he was released after the High Court quashed his detention orders.

    Cases were registered against Raja Singh for passing derogatory statements against Prophet Muhammad that brought the city on the verge of a communal riot last year. Raja Singh had released a video with his objectionable remarks after the state government allowed comedian Munawar Faruqui, who had joked about Hindu gods earlier, to hold a show in the city.

    The BJP MLA’s video led to several protests for over two days, after which the Hyderabad police put him inside prison. Senior police officials said that they are keeping tabs on him after his release as well.

  • Air India urination case: Delhi court reserves order on accused Shankar Mishra’s bail plea

    Air India urination case: Delhi court reserves order on accused Shankar Mishra’s bail plea

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: A Delhi court on Monday reserved for January 31 its order on the bail application of Shankar Mishra, accused of urinating on a woman on board an Air India flight from New York to New Delhi.

    Police have opposed the bail application, saying India has been defamed internationally because of the incident.

    “It may be disgusting but that is another matter, let’s not get into that. Let’s go into how the law deals with it,” the judge said.

    The judge also observed that the witnesses named by the prosecution “are not deposing in your (police) favor”.

    Police have also alleged that the accused threatened the complainant.

    Mishra had sought bail, saying initially, the bail had been declined by a magisterial court because the investigation was pending.

    “Now that’s done and they have examined other crew members and witnesses. Also, they asked for reimbursement of the ticket and sought no action against me,” the counsel said.

  • Karnataka: BJP issues gag order to rein in disgruntled MLAs

    Karnataka: BJP issues gag order to rein in disgruntled MLAs

    [ad_1]

    Bengaluru: The BJP party high command has issued strict gag orders to rein in the disgruntled legislators from giving damaging statements, which can tarnish the image of the party in Karnataka.

    Vijayapur MLA, Basanagoud Patil Yatnal’s statements against Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai and former CM, BJP Central Parliamentary Board member B.S. Yediyurappa not only embarrassed the party but also sparked speculations.

    He also targeted Minister for Large Industries Murugesh Nirani by using an inappropriate word, which triggered a bitter war of words between the two. Minister Nirani stated that if he does not mind his language, his tongue will be cut.

    Similarly, many seniors voiced their concern over High Command’s decision not to expand the cabinet. Former ministers and senior leaders Ramesh Jarkiholi and K.S. Eshwarappa made a demand that since they got clean chit in allegations against them, they should be included in the cabinet.

    BJP MLC A.H. Vishwanath had launched a direct attack on the saffron party by stating that BJP offered him money to quit JD(S). He also attacked senior politician, BJP MP Srinivas Prasad who called him a nomad. He also attacked BJP on its stand over boycotting Muslim traders.

    The party was worried about the series of damaging statements. Chief Minister Bommai, after being attacked by own MLA Yatnal, maintained that action will be initiated. But, no action was initiated. The development raised suspicion that one of the camps within the BJP is supporting Yatnal.

    However, as the assembly elections are fast approaching, as per the sources the high command taking no chances has issued a stern warning to all legislators not to issue any statements which will damage the image of the party and create confusion in public.

    Yatnal had stated that he will not indulge in issuing statements against Yediyurappa and he will stop at this stage.

    As per the sources, the party seniors have issued diktat on all legislators not to issue any damaging statements or give reactions on issues of leadership.

    The party, which stated that it will go to assembly polls under the leadership of Bommai is now maintaining that the party would seek votes in the name of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

    The opposition parties have taken potshots at the BJP over the stand and stated that there is no CM face in the saffron party in Karnataka.

  • Ahobilam Mutt temple: SC refuses to entertain plea against AP HC order

    Ahobilam Mutt temple: SC refuses to entertain plea against AP HC order

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: “Let the religious people deal with it,” the Supreme Court said on Friday while refusing to entertain a plea against an Andhra Pradesh High Court order holding that the state of Andhra Pradesh had no authority under law to appoint an executive officer to the Ahobilam mutt temple.

    A bench of Justices S K Kaul and A S Oka said Andhra Pradesh has no authority, jurisdiction or entitlement under law to appoint an executive officer of the ‘Sri Ahobila Mutt Parampara Aadheena Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy Devasthanam’ (Ahobilam Mutt Temple).

    “Let the religious people handle this. In every case under Article 136 (special leave to appeal by the Supreme Court), we need not try to settle the law. Sorry,” the bench told the lawyer appearing for the state that had challenged the high court order.

    One petition before the high court stated that the Ahobilam temple, situated in the Kurnool district of Andhra Pradesh, has been under the control of Sri Ahobilam Mutt, which is based in Tamil Nadu, since time immemorial.

    The state of Andhra Pradesh and others had challenged the October 13, 2022, high court order, which said the Ahobilam temple is an “integral and inseparable part of the Ahobilam Math, which was established as a part of the propagation of Hindu religion and for rendering spiritual service for propagating Sri Vaishnavism”.

    The high court had said appointing an executive officer for the temple, which is a part of the Mutt, is violative of Article 26(d) of the Constitution as it affects the right of administration of Jeeyars’/Mathadipathis.

    The high court had passed the order on separate petitions questioning the appointment of an executive officer of the ‘Devasthanam’.

    The state claimed in its plea that the high court had erred in holding that the Commissioner of the Endowments department does not possess the power to appoint an executive officer to take charge of the administration of the temple under section 29 of the Andhra Pradesh Religious Endowments and Charitable Institutions Act 1987 simply because the temple is affiliated with the Ahobilam Mutt.

    “The high court failed to appreciate that the subject temple and the Ahobilam Math are distinct, independent juristic persons and thus, the subject temple’s inclusion in the definition of ‘Math’ is simply incongruous,” it said.

  • Lakhimpur Kheri case: SC to pronounce order on Wednesday on Ashish Mishra bail plea

    Lakhimpur Kheri case: SC to pronounce order on Wednesday on Ashish Mishra bail plea

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: The Supreme Court would pronounce its order on Wednesday on the bail plea of Ashish Mishra, key accused in the 2021 Lakhimpur Kheri violence case and son of Union Minister Ajay Kumar Mishra.

    According to the cause list uploaded on the apex court website, a bench comprising Justices Surya Kant and J.K. Maheshwari will pronounce the order on January 25.

    The apex court had reserved its order on Mishra’s plea on January 19.

    Additional Advocate General for Uttar Pradesh Garima Prashad opposed Mishra’s bail plea. She had submitted that it was a grave and heinous crime and granting bail will send a wrong signal to society.

    Senior advocate Dushyant Dave, appearing for those opposing the bail plea, said grant of bail will send a terrible message to society.

    “It is a conspiracy and a well-planned murder. I will show it from the charge sheet. He is the son of a powerful man being represented by a powerful lawyer,” he said.

    Senior advocate Mukul Rohatgi, appearing for Mishra, strongly opposed Dave’s submission, saying: “What is this? Who is powerful? We are appearing every day. Can this be a condition to not grant bail?”

    He submitted that his client has been in custody for more than a year and the way the trial is going, it will take seven to eight years to complete it.

    He said that Jagjit Singh, who is the complainant in the case, is not an eyewitness and his complaint is just based on hearsay.

    “Jagjit Singh is the complainant and he is not an eyewitness. I am surprised that when there are many people saying we ran over people mercilessly, an FIR is registered on the version of a person who is not an eyewitness?” Rohatgi said, adding that his client is not a criminal and there are no past records.

    On October 3, 2021, eight people were killed in Lakhimpur Kheri district’s Tikunia in a violence that erupted when farmers were protesting against UP Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya’s visit to the area.

    According to the Uttar Pradesh Police FIR, four farmers were mowed down by an SUV, in which Ashish Mishra was seated.

    Following the incident, a driver and two BJP workers were allegedly lynched by angry farmers. A journalist also died in the violence.

    On December 6 last year, a trial court had framed charges against Mishra and 12 others for the alleged offences of murder, criminal conspiracy and others in the case of death of the protesting farmers in Lakhimpur Kheri, paving the way for the start of the trial.

    A total of 13 accused, including Mishra, have been charged under IPC sections 147 and 148 related to rioting, 149 (unlawful assembly), 302 (murder), 307 (attempt to murder), 326 (voluntarily causing grievous hurt by dangerous weapons or means), 427 (mischief) and 120B (punishment for criminal conspiracy), and section 177 of the Motor Vehicle Act.

    The other 12 accused are Ankit Das, Nandan Singh Bisht, Latif Kale, Satyam a.k.a Satya Prakash Tripathi, Shekhar Bharti, Sumit Jaiswal, Ashish Pandey, Lavkush Rana, Shishu Pal, Ullas Kumar Trivedi, Rinku Rana and Dharmendra Banjara.

    All of them are in jail.

  • Israeli PM dismisses key minister, ally after court order

    Israeli PM dismisses key minister, ally after court order

    [ad_1]

    Jerusalem: Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has dismissed a senior cabinet ally to comply with a Supreme Court ruling that disqualified the minister from serving.

    Netanyahu on Sunday announced he is firing Aryeh Deri, the minister of health and minister of interior affairs, during his weekly cabinet meeting, Xinhua news agency reported, citing a statement by the Prime Minister’s office.

    The move follows a Supreme Court ruling on Wednesday that Deri, an influential and veteran leader of the ultra-Orthodox party Shas, cannot serve as a minister due to a conviction in February 2022 over tax fraud.

    “I am forced, with a heavy heart, great sorrow and a very difficult feeling, to remove you from your position as a minister in the government,” Netanyahu wrote in a dismissal letter to Deri.

    The Supreme Court’s decision “ignores the people’s will,” Netanyahu told Deri. “I intend to find any legal way for you to continue to contribute to the state of Israel,” Netanyahu said.

    Deri said in a statement after the meeting that he would continue to serve as the leader of the Shas party and help the government to advance its agenda, including a controversial judiciary reform to weaken the Supreme Court.

    Deri’s Shas became the third-largest party in the parliament after winning 11 seats in parliamentary elections in November. If Netanyahu loses its support, he might lose his majority in the parliament as his far-right coalition only has 64 seats in the 120-seat parliament.

    The legal decision deepens an already unprecedented rift between the new hard-right government and the judiciary over the government’s reform plan to weaken the Supreme Court.

    On Saturday, at least 120,000 Israelis, as estimated by police, protested in Tel Aviv and other cities against the legal overhaul which they claim will undermine the autonomy of the courts and threaten Israel’s democracy.
