Prime Minister Narender Modi ruling BJP led central government had a well-deserved all-round land-slide victory because of first-ever multi-cornered bold steps against terror-generating Pakistan targeting militants and separatists in Kashmir valley in every possible manner. Country does hope of immediate abolition of article 370 and 35A from the constitution as also promised in BJP poll-manifesto for permanent solution of Kashmir-problem created by wrong policies of our first Prime Minister.

Five-star luxury of transit-accommodation of new MPs gone: Should be done away for others also

It refers to welcome news about Lok Sabha secretariat doing away with five-star transit-stay in hotels for newly elected Lok Sabha members who are not members of previous Lok Sabha thereby saving pubic-money of about rupees 35 crores. Earlier many newly elected members including appointed ministers misused the facility of transit-stay at five-starred hotels by not vacating even after allocation of regular government-accommodation. Now transit-stay will be done at luxuriously maintained state guest-houses and newly developed annexe at Western Court complex at New Delhi. It is noteworthy that the then Union Home Minister Indrajit Gupta used Western Court accommodation even holding the ministerial-post. But same should be system for others given luxury of stay at five-starred hotels at pub...

Re-defining patriotism and terrorism

Re-defining patriotism and terrorism

addtop, TOP STORIES, समाचार
It refers to Sadhvi Pragya Thakur forced to seek apology by her own party BJP for calling Nathuram Godse (the assassinate of MK Gandhi) a patriot. But those criticising Sadhvi Pragya Thakur overlooked the fact that MK Gandhi called Abdul Rashid, the killer of Swamy Shraddhand, as his brother stating that he did not consider Abdul Rashid guilty of murder rather blaming Swamy Shraddhanand allegedly for his purging the atmosphere of mutual hatred and calumny. If MK Gandhi can justify killing of social-reformer Swamy Shraddhanand who was only non-Hindu to be given opportunity to address gathering at Jama Masjid of Delhi, then it is unjustified to snatch right of freedom of expression and speech from Sadhvi Pragya Thakur. It has become a political fashion cutting across party-lines to ...

Congress not changing procedure for appointment of Election Commissioners in its long regime now (though rightly) demands such a logical change

It refers to Congress and other opposition parties strongly criticizing present Chief Election Commissioner for allegedly bias role in favour of ruling BJP during on-going elections for Lok Sabha. Leave apart merit in allegations if any, big question is why Congress in its long regime did not change system of appointing Election Commissioners. Congress was also alleged by the then opposition for appointing certain individuals of its favour as Election Commissioners. However with several other posts like Central Vigilance Commissioners and Central Information Commissioners having a system of appointments by a collegium also consisting opposition-leader, appointment of Election Commissioners requiring even more political neutrality must be selected by a collegium preferably consisting of no...

Rallies and road-shows be totally banned for future elections: TV debates and press-conferences be promoted It refers to confusing decision of Election Commission of India ECI on 15.05.2019 announcing a total ban on poll-campaign in West Bengal but with effect from 10 pm on 16.05.2019 rather than mandatory from 5 pm on 17.05.2019 considering heavy violence during road-show by BJP President Amit Shah on 14.05.2019. But it is beyond understanding why ECI did not impose ban with immediate effect just after its announcement on 15.05.2019. Election-rallies and road-shows are insensible style of poll-campaign involving extra-large heavy expenditure on unproductive mode of poll-campaign. Ban on banners and posters has provided remarkable results resulting in stopping wastage of money and keepin...

A Down To Earth magazine investigation points to an emerging threat facing the world’s vulnerable regions – climate change is changing the chemistry of cyclones in ways we do not understand yet. At speeds which are almost impossible to tackle Despite being better prepared this time, experts were left guessing by Fani about its trajectory till 24 hours before landfall. Cyclones are becoming more unpredictable and hence, deadlier A slowing down of wind speeds across the world is said to be one of the key reasons New Delhi, May 14, 2019: “All these years, we have been talking and warning persistently about the increasing intensity and ferocity of extreme weather events like cyclones, brought about by climate change.

It refers to shocking incident of killing of a 51-year old businessman on night of 11.05.2019 critically injuring his young son by miscreants when the victim approached the killer-family to oppose ugly remarks passed on his daughter by the miscreants. It is unfortunate that while politicians not only from UP but also from neighbouring Delhi hit news-lines by visiting Dadri on lynching of a person in the year 2015, political rulers avoided visiting house of victim either for expressing grief or for announcing compensation. Normally announced compensation of rupees one crore should be given to middle-income family of the victim apart from all other hep required and sought by the family. On the contrary, properties and other assets of the killer-family should be acquired by the government to ...

Calling Nathuram Godse as Hindu-terrorist

समाचार
It refers to Kamal Hassan calling Nathuram Godse as first Hindu terrorist. Such persons have neither read history nor the note written by Nathuram Godse on his killing MK Gandhi. Undoubtedly it cannot be justified to kill a person, even though it was pseudo-secularist policy and undemocratic decision of the uncrowned king-maker which provoked Nathuram Godse to take such bold but undesired step that too with full knowledge that he himself would be hanged. Everybody knows the person who deprived nation from a really capable Sardar Patel from becoming first Prime Minister of India. Big problems like that of Kashmir hanging and troubling India till now since independence would not have been there if Indian citizens would have been fortunate enough to be led by democratically elected but unf...
