    Visakhapatnam: In another U-turn on the disinvestment process of Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Ltd (RINL), the corporate entity of Visakhapatnam Steel Plant, the Centre on Friday said that the process is in progress.

    A day after Union Minister of State for Steel Faggan Singh Kulaste said in Visakhapatnam that the Centre will not go ahead with the privatisation, the ministry of steel on Friday issued a statement that there is no freeze on the disinvestment process of RINL.

    Clarifying about some media reports regarding hold on the disinvestment process of RINL, the Steel Ministry said that disinvestment process of the RINL is under progress and efforts are being made by the company and supported by the government to improve the performance of RINL and keep it as a going concern.

    Kulaste had said in Visakhapatnam on Thursday that the Centre will focus on strengthening Vizag Steel Plant (VSP) rather than privatising it.

    Meanwhile, protesting against the new U-turn, VSP employees took to the streets on Friday. They sat on a dharna on the national highway near Kurmannapalem crossroads and set afire the effigy of the Central government.

    Police tried to detain the protestors but they resisted the attempt. This led to mild tension. The VSP employees have threatened to intensify their protest.

    The employees, who have been protesting for more than two years, demanded that the Centre take back its disinvestment plan.

    Employees said people of Andhra Pradesh made many sacrifices for the plant and they will not allow the sale of the plant.

    Kangana takes U-turn, supports Uorfi Javed’s dressing sense

    Mumbai: The controversial celebrities of the entertainment industry, Kangana Ranaut and Uorfi Javed had an interesting exchange on Twitter on Monday. Kangana advocated for the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in the country while she was replying to a tweet from Uorfi Javed. On Tuesday, Uorfi again replied to the Queen actress and it seems that the duo are not going to stop exchanging opinions on the microblogging site.

    Both celebrities are attracting a lot of comments from Twitter users and even people are sharing memes in reply to their tweets. Kangana Ranaut who seems to be jealous of the success of SRK’s Pathaan tweeted against Muslim actors and actresses recently and Uorfi Javed reacted to her tweet. Uorfi replied to Kangana that art is not divided by religion and there are only actors and no Hindu or Muslim.  After reading Javed’s tweet , the Himachali actress tweeted her opinion. She said the country must introduce a Uniform Civil Code and till the time the constitution is divided the nation will remain divided.

    Now, on Tuesday morning Uorfi  reacted to Kangana’s UCC idea. She quoted Kangana’s tweet and wrote ”Uniform wound be a bad idea for me maam ! I’m popular only because of my clothes.”

    After Uorfi’s said that she is being recognised because of her dressing sense, Kangana reacted in an unexpected turn. The ‘Tanu Weds Manu’ actress gave an example of Mahadevi Akka who was a devotee of Lord Shiva. She said that Mahadevi Akka dropped her clothes and started living in the forest without covering her body. She wrote, ”In India there was Queen called Mahadevi Akka,who loved Shiva her husband before the court said if she loved Shiva n not him then she shouldn’t take anything from him,she dropped all her clothes left the palace and never covered her body again. Clothes and a lack of them (cont ).”

    She further wrote, ”Both are self expression, Mahadevi Akka is a shinning star In the world of Kannada literature she is the greatest, she lived in forests and never wore clothes. Don’t let anyone shame you about your body, you are pure and divine, my love to you.”

    It seems that Kangana advised Uorfi Javed that she should not let anyone shame her body and that Uorfi is divine and pure.

    Well, the exchange between the two on Twitter did not remain between them only as netizens have flooded the micro blogging site with their own opinions. Some users are targeting directly both Uorfi and Kangana while others are sharing memes. Check out below
