    New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party leader and former Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi Manish Sisodia, who is in judicial custody for his alleged involvement in the Delhi excise policy case, said on Monday that no matter how hard the BJP tries, development work will not be stalled in the national capital.

    “Be it in Patparganj or other parts of Delhi, development work will not stop. No matter how hard the BJP people tries, no work will stop in Delhi,” Sisodia said after coming out of the Rouse Avenue Court, which extended his judicial custody till May 23.

    The court also allowed an application moved by his legal team seeking permisson for Sisodia to sign certain documents for approving the disbursement of funds for development work in his constituency (Patparganj).

    The ED had arrested Sisodia on March 9 after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrested him on February 26 this year in the same case.

    The ED has alleged that Sisodia was the mastermind behind the entire excise policy case and that he had deliberately leaked the policy to the co-accused to generate financial kickbacks.

  • PM Modi’s visit, BJP’s grassroots work lift party prospects in north Karnataka

    PM Modi’s visit, BJP’s grassroots work lift party prospects in north Karnataka

    [ad_1]

    Hubbali: Prime Minister Narendra Modi camping in Karnataka and addressing a gathering in Haveri has uplifted the spirits of the party cadres in north Karnataka. Coupled with this the organisational machinery of the BJP is functioning tirelessly and has almost completed four rounds of door-to-door campaigning.

    In Hubbali, BJP candidate Mahesh Tenginkai, the party state general secretary and the blue-eyed boy of senior leader B.L. Santhosh, has been working hard to defeat the Congress candidate Jagadish Shettar whose exit from the BJP has become national news.

    While Shettar has the support of the local people and their goodwill, being a six-term MLA and a former chief minister, the Hubbali seat is a stronghold of the BJP and the RSS. The arrival of the Prime Minister in the adjacent district of Haveri where he dwelt on the development measures undertaken by his government and a ‘double engine’ government in the state seems to have struck a chord with the voters.

    M.R. Krishan Tulangi, a farmer in Hubbali while speaking to IANS said, “The Prime Minister has said that the government of India is purchasing urea at a cost of Rs 50 per kg and distributing it to farmers at Rs 5 per kg. This is a very important gesture on the part of the BJP government towards the farmers. This time I will vote for the BJP even though Jagadish Shettar is a good person and a winnable candidate.”

    In Gadag also there is support for the BJP candidates and most of those whom this correspondent spoke to said that even though the Karnataka BJP is not up to the mark and corruption allegations are there, the Prime Minister was doing good work for the country. To support him they have to vote for the BJP.

    Basavaraj Pujar, a driver in Gadag told IANS, “The Prime Minister in his speech at Haveri said that our country is presently the fifth largest economy in the world and will soon become the third largest economy. This filled me with pride and I have decided to vote for the BJP.”

    In Belagavi, however, the presence of the Maharashtra Ekikaran Samithi (MES) which stands for the merger of the border districts of Karnataka with Maharashtra, is likely to play spoilsport to the prospects of the BJP in four seats.

    In addition to the Prime Minister’s roadshow and public programmes, the presence of grassroot RSS cadres is helping the BJP conduct door to door surveys, which the Congress is lacking.

    Another factor is the presence of a large number of youths for campaigning for the BJP while the Congress has middle aged people in its campaign team.

    With only two days left for the elections and with the campaigning ended today, the BJP and the Congress are in an all out mode to garner the maximum votes.

  • Will work out common minimum program to bring Opposition together: Pawar

    Will work out common minimum program to bring Opposition together: Pawar

    [ad_1]

    Baramati: A common minimum programme of the Opposition will be prepared ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Nationalist Congress Party president Sharad Pawar said here on Saturday.

    He will play a role in bringing opposition parties together, Pawar said in his hometown Baramati in Pune district a day after he withdrew his decision to give up the party post.

    “In the next 10-11 months, elections will be taking place in a number of places…..Leaders like Nitish Kumar, Arvind Kejriwal, Chandrashekar Rao, Mamata Banerjee are trying to unite the Opposition,” he told reporters.

    MS Education Academy

    “I will participate in bringing the Opposition together by creating a common minimum programme,” Pawar added.

    Asked about rumours surrounding the plans of senior NCP leader and his nephew Ajit Pawar, he said, “An atmosphere of confusion is being created regarding Ajit Pawar. There was talk that he will join the BJP, but has anything happened?” Ajit Pawar is someone who loves to work on the ground, and there was no truth to the speculation about him, the NCP chief further said.

    Earlier, Pawar was welcomed by local NCP office-bearers amid slogan-shouting by workers on his arrival here.

    He would be meeting local NCP leaders and workers before heading to Solapur, party sources said.

    On Friday, the 82-year-old leader withdrew his decision to step down as NCP president, three days after the surprise announcement that had put a question mark on the opposition unity efforts ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.

    The veteran leader who is known for his deft political manoeuvring said that leaders of various political parties across the country requested him to continue as NCP president.

    He could not disrespect the sentiments of his colleagues and party workers who insisted that he withdraw his decision, he said.

  • A lot of work goes in: SC quashes plea against ‘The Kerala Story’

    A lot of work goes in: SC quashes plea against ‘The Kerala Story’

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Thursday rebuffed a fresh attempt by a petitioner seeking a stay on the release of the film ‘The Kerala Story, saying that a filmmaker invests a lot of money and time in making a movie and actors also put in a lot of work, and the market will decide if it is not up to the mark.

    A bench headed by Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud and comprising Justices P.S. Narasimha and J.B. Pardiwala said: “One, the CBFC has released the film; two, the Kerala High Court declined to stay the film; and three, yesterday we said we are not going to entertain a petition under Article 32. Now, after these steps have been completed and now for us to hear an application like this is not proper.”

    During the hearing on the plea, filed by journalist Qurban Ali, the bench emphasised that before rushing to the court against the movie, a thought should be given about the filmmaker and actors and how many times will this be challenged?

    MS Education Academy

    The bench told petitioner’s counsels, senior advocate Huzefa Ahmadi and Shoeb Alam, to look at the filmmaker, he cannot be made to face courts for the release of his film and the Kerala High Court had applied its mind while refusing interim relief of staying the film release.

    Ahmadi submitted that a letter was sent to the acting Chief Justice of Kerala High Court, who said that a bench has been constituted.

    The registry later informed the petitioner that the bench will not hold sitting on Thursday and also the Kerala High Court is on summer vacation, Ahmadi contended.

    However, the apex court refused to entertain the plea against the movie.

    The bench pointed out that the petitioner initially tried to challenge the release of the film through an interlocutory application in a pending hate speech case, which was turned down by another bench.

    Ahmadi requested the bench to allow him to argue his case in the court before the release of the film.

    The Chief Justice told the counsel to work out remedies before the high court.

    On Wednesday, the Supreme Court refused to entertain a plea by the Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind seeking a direction to the Centre and others not to allow the screening or release of the movie in theatres, OTT platforms and other avenues, and also that the trailer should be removed from the Internet.

  • Aamir Khan now seeks work in Hyderabad after Laal Singh Chaddha’s failure

    Aamir Khan now seeks work in Hyderabad after Laal Singh Chaddha’s failure

    [ad_1]

    Mumbai: Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha was a big failure and one among the big-budget movies that fell prey to the ‘Boycott Bollywood’ trend. Post this, the Fanaa actor announced a year-long break from acting in November 2022 to spend more time with his family members.

    The actor, who was spotted in a salt-and-pepper look earlier this year in Delhi, opted to produce RS Prasanna’s Campeones remake with Sony Pictures India instead of acting in it. And now, it is rumoured that Aamir Khan wants to play roles in Telugu movies instead of Bollywood for a while.

    Yes, you read it right! Speculations are rife that Aamir Khan is flying down to Hyderabad to meet with Telugu producer Allu Aravind to have a talk with him about upcoming projects. It is rumoured that the duo are planning to make Ghajini 2. Experts said that Aamir Khan wants to save his career by appearing in any South Indian movie as Bollywood is still under troubled waters.

    MS Education Academy

    As it is not officially confirmed whether Aamir Khan is going to play a role in the Allu Aravind project but meeting the latter second time in three months gives credence to the suspicions that the 3 Idiots actor will star in any big Telugu project soon.

    A source close to the actor revealed to PeepingMoon, “Aamir Khan is discussing a project with producer Allu Aravind of Geetha Arts, and they met last week again for the same. They have discussed several project ideas and are eager to work together. But at this point, it is just a mere conversation, with no concrete development so far.”

    The report quoting the source also reads, “Aamir and Allu Aravind have met on numerous occasions during the last 4-5 months. However, everything has been kept so secretive that nobody is aware of what is actually cooking. Ghajini 2 is definitely one of the projects under consideration, but it’s not yet certain what the other projects are. When things fall into place, we might learn about some developments, but for the time being, it’s all been kept under wraps.”

    Whatever, but can any Telugu movie help Aamir Khan drag the audience towards cinema halls after two consecutive failures? Do share your thoughts in the comments section.

    Hyderabad: Harish Rao directs officials to expedite work ahead of NIMS expansion

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: Telangana Health minister Harish Rao, has directed officials to expedite all necessary arrangements for the construction of a new 2,000-bed building as part of the expansion of the Government NIMS Hospital.

    The foundation stone for the new building will be laid by Telangana chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao.

    The expansion of NIMS has been initiated by the chief minister to cater to the increasing population needs, along with the construction of 1,000-bed TIMS hospitals on all sides of Hyderabad. It is recommended to complete all necessary departmental approvals for this new building, which will provide OP, IP, and emergency services in all three blocks, and commence the construction process, a press note from the health ministry said.

    MS Education Academy

    The Finance and Health minister held a review with senior officials of the Health Department at Dr. BR Ambedkar’s Telangana State Secretariat on Tuesday.

    On this occasion, Minister Harish Rao mentioned that the new NIMS structure, built on eight floors, will increase the total number of beds from 1,500 to 3,500. He also stated that once the recently laid foundation stone for the super speciality MCH is completed, 200 more beds will be made available, bringing the total number of beds in NIMS alone to 3,700. This expansion will provide better access to health services to the people.

    The NIMS MCH works should be expedited, and apart from this, the minister directed the completion of the 200-bed super specialty MCH being constructed at Gandhi Hospital by the end of this month. If completed, it will be the first super speciality MCH in the country, he said.

    The government wants to accelerate the work of the Government Fertility Center and the State Organ Transplant Center is set up in Gandhi Hospital to provide better access to health services for the people, he said.

    The minister directed the superintendent to take steps to improve transplant surgeries like those performed at NIMS hospital in Gandhi. Brain-dead declarations should be made, and organs should be given to those in need to give life. Despite the central government not supplying vaccines, the state government has mobilized them and made them available in PHC, Basti Dawakhana, and CHC. He called for their efficient use.

    The minister emphasized that ideal directors and superintendents are those who arrive at the hospital before everyone else and leave after everyone else. He suggested that by making rounds in hospitals for two hours every day and visiting all the departments, most of the problems can be solved. He also mentioned that serving the people is a rare opportunity, and he wants to work responsibly, earn their forgiveness, and bring a good name to the government.

    Furthermore, the finance and health minister issued an order to conduct the online process (CBT) for the recruitment of 5,204 Staff Nurse posts in various departments of the health department. He said that the recruitment process should be completed transparently and efficiently.

    The review meeting was attended by Health Secretary Rizvi, Arogya Sri CEO vishalakshi, DME Ramesh Reddy, DH Srinivasa Rao, TSMSIDC MD Chandrasekhar Reddy, TVVP Commissioner Ajay Kumar, CM OSD Gangadhar, NIMS In-charge Director Birappa, Gandhi Superintendent Raja Rao, MNJ Cancer Hospital Director Jayalatha, and other officials.

  • Hyderabad: Govt mandates Qazis to work within specified jurisdictions

    Hyderabad: Govt mandates Qazis to work within specified jurisdictions

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: The government of Telangana has mandated that all government Qazis, who are appointed under Section 2 of the Qazi Act, must strictly adhere to the limits specified in their appointment letter. The Collector of Hyderabad was asked to issue instructions to all official Qazis to work within their jurisdictions.

    The RDO Hyderabad has ordered all subordinates and Tehsildars of Amberpet, Asif Nagar, Bahadurpura, Bandlaguda, Charminar Golkonda, Himayatnagar, Nampally, and Sayeedabad to issue instructions to the government Qazis in their respective Tehsil boundaries with a copy of the government’s memorandum dated 23 January. The Qazis are expected to perform nikah only in the areas and boundaries mentioned in their appointment letter and adhere to the tax areas listed on the appointment letter.

    The government’s move comes after receiving several complaints about some Qazis who have been interfering in the territories of other Qazis by misusing Section 4 of the Qazi Act. The Minority Welfare Department has contacted the government, which has taken this drastic step to address the issue. Secretary, Minority Welfare Department, Ahmad Nadeem has issued a memo, clarifying that the Qazis appointed under Section 2 of the Act must strictly adhere to the scope of their appointment and should not interfere with the boundaries of other Qazis.

    MS Education Academy

    The government has made it clear that the public is free to hire private Qazis, but Qazis appointed under Section 2 should not interfere with the boundaries of other Qazis by resorting to Section 4. The government has warned that any further complaint against them will result in action being taken against them without any notice, and their services will be suspended.

    It is worth noting that the government had divided the then seven Qazi Zones and established 32 new Qazi Zones on 20 March 2022. Since the approval of the appointments, the government has appointed new Qazis in 13 Qazi Zones by implementing GO 13.

    The Collector of Hyderabad has issued these orders to all official Qazis in the jurisdiction, and it is expected that the Qazis will comply with the government’s mandate. Any Qazi found to be violating the government’s order will face disciplinary action, including suspension of their services.

  • BJP’s intimidatory tactics won’t work, TMC will in 2026: Abhishek

    BJP’s intimidatory tactics won’t work, TMC will in 2026: Abhishek

    [ad_1]

    Kolkata: Senior TMC leader Abhishek Banerjee on Sunday asserted that more the BJP uses “intimidatory tactics” against West Bengal’s ruling party, the more number of seats it will get in the 2026 assembly polls, as people will resist the saffron camp’s “gameplan”.

    Banerjee, while addressing a rally at Chopra in Uttar Dinajpur district, claimed that the Trinamool Congress will win not less than 240 seats in the next assembly elections.

    He also maintained the BJP government at the Centre was intimidating opposition parties through frequent CBI and ED raids.

    MS Education Academy

    “From 184 seats in 2011 assembly polls, we got 211 seats in 2016. It went up to 213 seats in the 2021 elections. And keep in mind, TMC will not get less than 240 seats in the 2026 polls. The more the BJP’s conspiracy against us grows using its agencies, the more our seats will go up, with people resisting their gameplan,” he said.

    Banerjee recalled that during the 2021 polls, people had ignored the repeated visits by BJP leaders to Bengal and their “audacious display of power”, to vote the TMC to power for the third time.

    “We will not cower due to their (BJP’s) threats unlike other parties. We will hit the streets with more protests,” he said.

    Banerjee also accused the saffron party of withholding the release of Rs 7,500-crore dues to the state, and said he will lead TMC activists to Delhi next month for an “indefinite sit-in to force the Centre to take note of the woes of the people of Bengal”.

    He said in stark contrast to the Centre’s “step-motherly” treatment to Bengal, the state government has spent Rs 3,500 crore under the rural roads housing project, irrespective of whether a region had elected TMC representatives to power in the last panchayat polls.

    “We produce our report card before the people where every electoral promise from Lakshmir Bhandar, Swastha Saathi’, Aikashree’ to Students Credit Card is accounted for. Can the BJP MPs, MLAs and panchayat members show such a report card? I challenge them. They only know to discriminate,” the TMC national general secretary said.

    The Diamond Harbour MP also claimed that while the state government is providing Rs 500 or Rs 1,000 to women under the Lakshmir Bhandar’ scheme, the Narendra Modi government is “extracting Rs 1,000” from citizens for linking Aadhaar with PAN.

  • Govt should work to realise Ambedkar’s ideals: KCR at TS Secretariat launch

    Govt should work to realise Ambedkar’s ideals: KCR at TS Secretariat launch

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: The new Secretariat of Telangana has been named after B R Ambedkar with the intention that people’s representatives and the entire government machinery should work to realise the ideals of the Architect of the Indian Constitution, Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao said on Sunday.

    Rao inaugurated the new Secretariat complex, which stands 265 feet tall and is spread over an area of 10, 51,676 square feet in a sprawling of 28 acres of land here.

    Speaking after the inauguration, the Chief Minister said he considered it the opportunity of a lifetime to have inaugurated this “magnificent secretariat complex”.

    MS Education Academy

    “In order to take forward his (BR Ambedkar) ideals, to make all the employees and ministers who regularly come to the Secretariat to remember his name and keep his message in mind while working, we named our Secretariat, the epicenter of the State administration after BR Ambedkar,” Rao said.

    He further said that the Telangana agitation for a separate state had been peaceful following Gandhian ideology, and statehood was achieved due to Ambedkar’s vision of enshrining Article 3 in the Constitution.

    Slamming his detractors, KCR said rebuilding of Telangana does not mean that old structures will be demolished and new edifices will be erected.

    “I want to tell some (political) dwarfs who do not know about the reconstruction of Telangana. Reconstruction of Telangana means reviving all the lakes in the State that remained dry due to lack of attention in the undivided Andhra Pradesh,” he said.

    He alleged that some forces, which could not digest the urge for reconstruction of Telangana, failed to see the overall development that the State is achieving.

    Recalling the Telangana development, KCR said the State attracted investments worth lakhs of crores of rupees and was making rapid strides in the IT sector, even surpassing Bangalore as its hub.

    The Chief Minister said the total paddy cultivation in the State stood at 56 lakh acres against 94 lakh acres all over the country during the current Yasangi (Rabi season).

    He said that the earlier Planning Commission (since replaced by NITI Aayog) had kept nine districts of Telangana under the backward districts category, but now there were no villages as progressive as those of Telangana.

    According to the Chief Minister, the per capita income of Telangana is the highest among all States in India even as per capita power consumption is also high which are the growth indicators and good economic development.

    The Chief Minister thanked officials and stakeholders for striving hard for the development of the State.

    A ‘Sudarsana Yagam’ was performed from 6 AM and Rao occupied his chambers in the sixth floor after the rituals concluded at around 1.30 PM. The Ministers of the State government also occupied their respective chambers.

    Considering the inadequacies of the former Secretariat complex built during undivided Andhra Pradesh, a government-appointed expert committee favoured construction of a new building.

    The Chief Minister had laid the foundation stone for the construction of the Secretariat on June 27, 2019 but the works started only in January 2021, delayed by the covid-19 pandemic, court cases and other issues.

    The building stands 265 feet tall, and a press release issued by the government said no state had such a tall Secretariat. It is also one of the largest Secretariats in the country, the release added.

    The domes of the new Secretariat have been built in the styles of the Neelakanteswara Swamy temple of the Kakatiya period in Nizamabad, designs of the palaces of the royals of Wanaparthy ‘Samsthanam’ in Telangana and the pattern of the Hanuman temple in Sarangpur, Gujarat, according to the release.

    The construction was done “flawlessly” with the instructions of Roads and Buildings (R&B) department, IGBC (Indian Green Building Council), Telangana State Technological Services and the State police department, the release added.
