TMC is Terror, Mafia, Corruption’, people will soon bid adieu: Nadda

[ad_1]
Purbasthali: Dubbing the TMC as a party that stands for Terror, Mafia and Corruption’, BJP national president J P Nadda on Sunday accused it of committing “massive” irregularities in the implementation of the PM Awas Yojana (PMAY) in West Bengal.
Claiming that the state has been brought to a “standstill” under the Trinamool Congress rule, Nadda said the BJP would end the “jungle raj of Mamata Banerjee”.
“As PMAY is being audited in West Bengal, massive irregularities have come up. It has shown that people who have two-three storey buildings received houses under the scheme. This is the situation in West Bengal,” he said.
Nadda also said that West Bengal, despite having a woman chief minister, “tops” the chart in terms of crime against women.
“The TMC stands for Terror, Mafia and Corruption. There is graft everywhere in West Bengal. Whether it is SSC recruitment or any other type of hiring, jobs are up for sale,” the BJP chief added.

2,789 people held so far as crackdown on child marriage continues: Assam CM

[ad_1]
Guwahati: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said that 2,789 people have been arrested so far during the ongoing crackdown on child marriage, which completed a week on Friday.
The government has also initiated a process to take measures for the rehabilitation of “victims” of child marriage.
“Now, total arrest 2789. Crackdown continues,” Sarma wrote on Twitter.
Though protests at various places by families of those arrested have been reported in the last few days, Assam Police spokesperson Prasanta Kumar Bhuyan had on Thursday said that no such incident took place anywhere in the state during the last 24 hours.
The Assam Police had launched the crackdown on child marriage on February 3, with over 2,000 people, including Hindu and Muslim priests who officiated these weddings, arrested within the first two days.
The arrests are being carried out on the basis of 4,135 FIRs registered across the state.
The state government has formed a cabinet sub-committee on the rehabilitation of “victims” of child marriage, and Sarma’s cabinet colleagues Ranoj Pegu, Keshab Mahanta and Ajanta Neog have been named as members of the panel.
Opposition parties have criticised the manner in which the drive is being carried out, terming the arrests of teenage husbands and family members as “abuse of law” for political gain, and equating the police action with “terrorising people”.

Sarma had earlier this week justified the crackdown and said nearly 17 per cent of over 6.2 lakh pregnant women in Assam last year were teenagers, according to the Reproductive and Child Health (RCH) portal.

Unity Crucial For Safeguarding Interests Of People Of J&K: Dr Farooq Abdullah

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference President and MP from Srinagar Dr Farooq Abdullah on Thursday asked people to unite against the divisive forces that are trying to disenfranchise them of their identity, land and resources.
This he said while stressing on the importance of maintaining unity in the ongoing struggle for restoration of J&K’s rights in Budgam. “I see no way of achieving anything in J&K without a lasting unity between different sections of our society. Unity in diversity must be our creed to last for all times and under all circumstances, otherwise there is no end in sight to our common problems in the shape of poverty, unemployment,” he said.
The cost of not forging unity will be borne out by our future generations, he said, “Recent developments across Jammu and Kashmir have heighten people’s fears. They talked of hand holding youth and bridging ‘Dil Ki Doori’. Hearts aren’t won by making poor and hapless people homeless. Far from winning the hearts, they have further alienated the people. Kashmiris, Gujjars, Dogras or Paharis are already suffering on multiple accounts. Snatching roofs from their heads will only precipitate the already grim situation. I hope the government retracts from the path it has chosen in Jammu and Kashmir.”
Provincial President Nasir Aslam Wani, and Chief Spokesperson Tanvir Sadiq were also present on the occasion.

If big people are scared of me, it means I am at par with PM Modi: Manish Sisodia

[ad_1]
New Delhi: If “big people” are scared of him, it means he is now at par with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said on Thursday, his first remarks on allegations of “political intelligence” gathering by the AAP government’s Feedback Unit.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has claimed that the Feedback Unit (FBU) set up by the Delhi government to check corruption allegedly collected “political intelligence”, a charge denied by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
Based on its preliminary inquiry, the agency in a report has recommended that an FIR be registered against Sisodia.
“The BJP has brought in new allegations against me that since 2015, I have been involved in snooping on them. If such big people, whose existence is dependent on using CBI, ED and Pegasus to conspire against opposition leaders, and if they are scared of me, it seems that I have also become equal to Modi,” Sisodia said in a tweet in Hindi.
His party has claimed that the BJP’s allegation that he was involved in “political snooping” is “completely false”. The arvind Kejriwal government has also said the matter is “politically motivated”.
The CBI has claimed that the AAP government had proposed setting up of the FBU in 2015 to gather information and actionable feedback regarding the working of various departments and autonomous bodies, institutions and entities falling under the jurisdiction of the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (GNCTD).
It further alleged that it was also to do “trap cases”. The unit started functioning in 2016 with a provision of Rs 1 crore for secret service expenditure, the agency has claimed.
The CBI has alleged that Chief Minister Kejriwal moved the proposal in a Cabinet meeting in 2015, but no agenda note was circulated. No sanction from the lieutenant governor was taken for appointments in the FBU, it has alleged.

“The Feedback Unit, in addition to collecting the mandated information, also collected political intelligence/intelligence qua miscellaneous issues,” the CBI has said in its preliminary inquiry report.
The CBI took up the inquiry on a reference from the Delhi government’s Vigilance Department that had detected alleged irregularities in the FBU. Prima facie, the agency has noted, there was deliberate violation of rules, guidelines and circulars by “delinquent public servants”.
“The nature of violations committed is inherently dishonest and as such materials disclose abuse of official position with dishonest intention by concerned public servants Manish Sisodia, Deputy CM, and Sukesh Kumar Jain, the then secretary (vigilance),” it has been alleged in the report.
According to the CBI, 60 per cent of the reports generated by the FBU pertained to vigilance and corruption matters, while “political intelligence” and other issues accounted for around 40 per cent.

It will be good if people respond positively to celebrate Feb 14 as ‘Cow Hug Day’: Rupala

[ad_1]
New Delhi: Union Minister Parshottam Rupala on Thursday said it will be good if people respond positively to the call given by the Animal Welfare Board of India (AWBI) to celebrate February 14 as Cow Hug Day’.
Rupala, who is Minister of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying, said nothing much should be read into the choice of February 14 as a date for this purpose.
February 14 is observed as Valentine’s Day across the world.
“This country has an age-old tradition of worshipping the cow and it is a matter of great happiness that people embrace the cow It is good if people respond positively to our appeal,” the minister told reporters.
Since February 14 is a day of love, it is good if people remember and love the cow on that day. “And if someone taunts on this, then one should not feel angry but feel pity…,” he added.
It is for the first time, AWBI — a statutory advisory body on animal welfare laws, has appealed to cow lovers in the country to celebrate ‘Cow Hug day’.
The Board noted that the appeal has been made because the vedic traditions are almost on the “verge of extinction” due to the progress of western culture.
The Board, established in 1962 under Section 4 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960, provides grants to animal welfare organisations and advises the Centre on animal welfare issues.
