Congress on Saturday snubbed AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi for his recent 'will have to take everyone along to defeat BJP' remark saying the party will be against anyone who does politics on the basis of religion."Ask him what kind of politics he wants to do.

Sridhar Babu criticises BRS leaders for trying to politicise Musi riverfront development  

Industries and IT Minister D. Sridhar Babu has criticised the opposition Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leaders for trying to provoke the people against the Musi riverfront development project for their political gains.The riverfront development project was in fact started during the previous BRS government way back in 2016 and the then government had constituted the Musi Riverfront Development Corporation Limited in 2017. It was the BRS government that released GO Ms. 7 demarcating 50 m abutting riverbed at the buffer zone and it went on to constitute teams of the Revenue and Irrigation departments to identify illegal structures that came up on the riverbed and buffer zone.The then government constituted an expert committee to identify the maximum flood level discharge of Musi river based o...

Bihar | Prashant Kishor walks the big poll talk

It’s 11:15 pm on a Sunday. But the guard at the grand bungalow in Sheikhpura, Patna, has his hands full. Late-night visitors throng the gate. The driveway is packed with over two dozen vehicles, some sporting the flags of Bihar’s big local parties. The sprawling lawn is agog with the chatter of a motley jumble. Aspiring politicians, academics, businessmen, rural folk whose next train is in the morning, youth with no job but with big ideas, males, females, about 100 faces, all lit up by their mobile phone screens and by the glint of hope. Finally, there emerges the man they are waiting to meet, smiling, clad in a simple white kurta-pajama, dispensing handshakes and pats on the shoulder, wearing the ease of a well-rehearsed neta but with the brightness of a new act. Prashant Kishor, the ace ...

West Bengal | Mamata’s darkest hour

How the mightiest have been shaken up! Just three months after the citizens of West Bengal handed the Trinamool Congress 29 out of its 42 Lok Sabha seats, the incumbent government is at the receiving end of unprecedented and ever-growing waves of protests over its handling of the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at the state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital (RGKMCH). If there has been one focal point of public ire, it has been Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. Since August 9, the dark night of the gruesome deed, Mamata has been perceived as being at the root of the rot in an administration that allegedly tried to cover up the crime. As a number of questions related to the death of the 31-year-old remain unanswered and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) uncovers alleged corru...

Caste census aim must be welfare, not politics: RSS | India News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, (RSS) has supported the idea of caste census, asserting that collection of caste data has already been going on and is a "well-practiced" effort by the govt but it should always be aimed at uplifting communities and never be treated as a "political tool" to gain electorally."RSS thinks... yes definitely for all welfare activities, particularly addressing a particular community or caste which is lagging behind.For which special attention is needed. For that, if some govt needs the numbers it is very well practiced," Sangh's chief spokespeson Sunil Ambekar said on Monday in what can potentially have a bearing on govt's decision on whether to have caste-wise enumeration in the long-delayed decennial census.The stand, coming amid a growing demand by oppo...

Aam Aadmi Party | Kejriwal at a crossroads

It was during the India Against Corruption (IAC) agitation in 2011 that Arvind Kejriwal shot to national fame. The movement, allegedly backed by the RSS-BJP, gave voice to the public anger against graft at a time when the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government at the Centre was fighting allegations of several scams. Social activist Anna Hazare had been the face of the campaign but, by the next year, Kejriwal had shaped the public antipathy towards the political class into a creation of his making—the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). Its election symbol, the broom, was an apt representation of its intent to clean up Indian polity, resonating widely with the capital’s disillusioned electorate.Source link

Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini | Younger legs for the race

The unexpected is to be expected: that’s by now a motto in the BJP’s tactical playbook. But it always leaves a vast pool of possibilities. Where—rather, against whose name—would the roulette’s needle stop? The tall, lanky, bearded figure of Nayab Singh Saini is where it decided to stop on March 12. Soft of manner and speech, and perhaps even of ambition, the 54-year-old MP from Kurukshetra may have been as surprised as Manohar Lal Khattar was back in 2014 when picked as the chief minister of Haryana. The latter had an equally surprising exit clause sprung on him, six months short of a decade in office. Just the previous day, as he walked down the spanking-new Dwarka Expressway with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the 69-year-old Khattar had seemed supremely secure in saddle and stirrup. Sain...
