Civic bodies in Delhi should follow Ghaziabad civic-body for licence fees and other regulations for pet dogs also as unavoidable part of Clean-India movement

राज्य
All the civic bodies in Delhi should follow Ghaziabad civic-body of UP for imposing a licence-fees of rupees 5000 for pet dogs apart from other regulations like compulsion of tying shit-bags and taking measures that these dogs do not cause hygiene in public-places. If people are fond of pet dogs on lines of advanced nations, they must made to feel duty-bound like civilised people there to feel responsibility that their pet dogs do not cause unhygiene for others.

With election-dates announced for state-assemblies of Haryana and Maharashtra, no approach towards much-needed simultaneous elections as favoured by Prime Minister

With election-dates announced for state-assemblies of Haryana and Maharashtra, no approach towards much-needed simultaneous elections as favoured by Prime Minister

addtop, TOP STORIES, राज्य
Election Commission has announced election-schedule for Haryana and Maharashtra state assemblies with single-day poll to be held on 21.10.2019, meaning thereby that idea of much-needed simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and all state-assemblies as also strongly advocated by Prime Minister, may not be a dream-come-true. A smart beginning could be made by imposing short-term President-rule in Haryana, Maharashtra and Jharkhand till February 2020 (Jammu-Kashmir is already under President-rule) when elections to all these state-assemblies could be held along with Delhi state-assembly in February 2020. Even Bihar state-assembly could be dissolved a bit earlier so that elections in Bihar could also be held in February, 2020. There would not have been resistance to such step because all th...

Welcome decision of UP government to abolish Income Tax payment of ministers from public-exchequer be followed by rest five remaining states

addtop, BREAKING NEWS, राज्य
Yogi Adityanath deserves all compliments for doing away with totally illogical practice of paying Income Tax of ministers from public-exchequer. It is beyond understanding why and how some former state Chief Minister adopted the anti-public policy which is unfortunately still prevalent in five other states namely Madhya-Pradesh, Chhatisgarh, Haryana, Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh while Punjab Chief Minister abolished the practice with effect from 19.03.2018. Remaining five states must also abolish the practice. At least Prime Minister can advise BJP-ruled states to do so, when remaining states will also be compelled to do so. Salaries, perks, privileges and post-retirement benefits including pension to all those in legislature (including centre and states) should be transferred as a ...

Handcuffed parade of guilty policemen in Siddharthnagar (UP) rather than mere formality of suspension necessary with immediate non-bailable arrest and termination from service It is beyond understanding if we are living in a civilised nation where video of two policemen in Siddhartnagar (UP) mercilessly beating a young man with legs and blows in front of his crying five-year old niece just for alleged violation of recently imposed dictatorial traffic-rules, went viral. Fortunately some one made video-clipping of the police-torture in open public, and put it on social media to make authorities fulfilling formality of suspending two police-men. It is a bitter fact that after formal enquiries, such suspensions are usually revoked after public-memory fades down. Otherwise there may be numer...

It is indeed regretting that Supreme Court has to spend precious court-hours on issues like encroachments and parking-space in Delhi. It was welcome to note that the Division Bench of Apex Court gave Delhi government notify its parking policy in short time by 30.09.2019 with compliance-report to be submitted in the court by 04.10.2019. Concerned authorities in Delhi should also look into large-scale commercialisation of earlier purely posh residential colony Bhagirath Palace in Chandni Chowk area of Old Delhi with total buildings in the colony re-built with high level illegal constructions. Bhagirath Palace with adjoining Lajpat Rai Market, New Lajpat Rai Market and Pleasure Garden Market have thus become largest wholesale markets in India for so many commodities like medicines, surgica...

  एक समय था जब भाजपा से जनता कश्मीर, 370, राम मंदिर जैसे विषयों पर सवाल पूछती थी। 370 के हटने के बाद अब जनता का ध्यान विभिन्न राज्यों की गतिविधियों पर आकर टिक गया है। कर्नाटक में भाजपा सरकार बनने के बाद मध्य प्रदेश की उठापटक कुछ ऐसा संकेत दे रही है कि वहां भी भाजपा सरकार में आ सकती है। बिहार में नितीश कुमार हालांकि भाजपा के साथ गठबंधन में तो हैं किन्तु उनकी भाजपा के साथ पटरी नहीं बैठ रही है। केन्द्रीय मंत्रीमंडल में भी उनको उतना प्रतिनिधित्व नहीं मिला जितने कि वह अपेक्षा कर रहे थे। अब बिहार के राजनीतिक हालात कुछ ऐसे बन गए हैं कि नितीश कुमार न अकेले चुनाव लड़ कर सत्ता में आ सकते हैं और न ही भाजपा के विरोध में जाकर आरजेडी से हाथ मिला सकते हैं। पूरे देश में जिस तरह से भाजपा ने विपक्ष को साफ किया है उसी तजऱ् पर अपने सहयोगियों को भी विपक्ष बनने से रोकने में भाजपा कामयाब दिख रही है। इन ...
