  • Scindia family pulled down Congress governments in MP twice: CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan

    By PTI
    BHOPAL: Jyotiraditya Scindia was the second member from his clan to pull down a Congress government in Madhya Pradsh, decades after ‘Rajmata’ Vijaya Raje Scindia toppled the “anti-people” Congress government in the state, Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said on Monday.

    He also said the entire Scindia family is now part of one party (BJP).

    “Rajmata, who was one of thefounding members of the BJP, had toppled the anti-people DP Mishra-led Congress government in the state (in 1967). She would have been happy to see that her grandson (Jyotiraditya Scindia) helped in bringing down the minority government of Congress (in year 2020). Now, the entire (Scindia) family is in one party,” Chouhan said.

    He was addressing a programme organised at the state BJP headquarter to mark the death anniversary of Vijaya Raje Scindia, popularly known as the Rajmata of Gwalior.

    Chouhan was referring to the collapse of Kamal Nath-led Congress government in March last year, after 22 MLAs, who were loyalists of Jyotiraditya Scindia, resigned and quit the party.

    They later joined the BJP, which returned to power under Chouhan.

    Meanwhile, the Congress has taken a dim view of Chouhan’s remarks.

    “The sense of glory and pride in toppling an elected government is a shameful expression of democratic values. People’s verdict should be respected,” he said.

  • Madhya Pradesh cabinet expanded, two Scindia loyalists return as ministers 

    By Express News Service
    BHOPAL: The wait of BJP old warhorses to get ministerial berths in the Shivraj Singh Chouhan-led government in Madhya Pradesh is getting longer. 

    The third cabinet expansion of the Chouhan government happened in Bhopal on Sunday, with the Governor Anandiben Patel administering oath of office and secrecy to just two new cabinet ministers, Tulsiram Silawat and Govind Singh Rajput — both Jyotiraditya Scindia loyalist former Congress legislators. 

    Ex minister Silawat (whom Scindia wanted as deputy CM in the Congress government in December 2018) and Rajput had retained their assembly seats Sanver (Indore) and Surkhi (Sagar) respectively by massive margins in the November 2020 assembly by-polls. 

    Importantly, the duo was among the four ministers who were inducted in the Shivraj Singh Chouhan cabinet in the first expansion in April 2020. But they had to resign from their posts in October as they failed to get re-elected as MLAs within six months of being made cabinet ministers. 

    The resignation by both of them as ministers in October and loss of three Scindia loyalists, Imarti Devi, Aidal Singh Kansana and Giriraj Dandotiya in the by-polls had created five vacancies in the council of ministers in addition to one existing vacant spot, meaning a total of six vacancies. 

    The defeat of the three Scindia loyalist ministers in the November 2020 assembly by-polls (in which BJP won 19 out of the 28 seats to reach comfortable majority of 126 seats), had raised hopes of several BJP veterans from Vindhya, Bundelkhand, Malwa-Nimar and Mahakoshal region to finally get a place in the council of ministers. 

    The multiple-time BJP MLAs who were eyeing the six vacant slots in the council of ministers, included Nagendra Singh-Nagod, Nagendra Singh-Gurh, Kedarnath Shukla, Rajendra Shukla, Girish Gautam and Ramlalu Vaishya (all from Vindhya region which was swept by BJP in 2018 assembly polls), Ajay Vishnoi (Mahakoshal region),  Pradeep Laria and Shailendra Jain (Bundelkhand), Sitasaran Sharma and Rampal Singh (Central MP), Yashpal Singh Sisodiya and Ramesh Mendola (Malwa-Nimar region). 

    These BJP old timers were also eyeing the posts of Vidhan Sabha speaker and deputy speaker, but the three-day State Assembly winter-session (December 28-30) was postponed on December 27 evening owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    The election to the post of the speaker and deputy speaker was scheduled during that three day session only.

  • Editorial :- Rod Sho Ke Baad Rahul Ne Apanee Chammach Se Bachchon Ko Khilaee Ice-cream

    PM Modi had tweeted on Rahul’s tweet, “People born with a spoon of gold, make fun of poor sweat
    Today’s news is: Walking on the streets of Indore also came out. Here Rahul Gandhi also took the pleasure of ice cream, where he himself also dug ice-cream and drew kids too.

    Rahul came to the famous 56 shops of Indore with Jyotiraditya Scindia and Kamal Nath. This shop is famous all over the country for its delicious dishes. Here, Rahul first dug ice cream and later he even snatched ice cream from his spoon (false). In this context, I am remembering two other pictures.

    Palitana / Ahmedabad: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday rebuked Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi for tweeting on his forearm, saying that those born with a spoon of gold are now making fun of poor sweat. Modi Gandhi was responding to his Hindi tweets on Monday, showing wrinkle on face, perspiration on the forehead, scare away from fear, Shah Jada (son of Amit Shah), on Rafael’s questions, let’s know why his lips Go. Modi is called by his supporters and subordinates often as sahib.

    Addressing a rally in Palitana, Bhavnagar district, Modi said, “You will not consider the cost of the sweat of the poor person because you are born with a spoon of gold. Since you can not understand the pain of the poor, you are making fun of their sweat. He said, you always have hostility against Gujarat. People know how you behaved with Sardar Patel and Morarji Desai. Now Modi is on your target. Due to this hatred, you are uneasy about sweating on Gujarati’s forehead. Taking the spoon of gold, the royal family will never understand the true value of our sweat.
