  • PM has ‘fled’ his ‘open book Rafale exam’ in Parliament: Rahul

    Escalating his attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the the Rafale deal issue, Congress chief Rahul Gandhi Thursday said it seems the PM has “fled” his “open book Rafale exam” in Parliament and is instead lecturing students in Punjab.
    Gandhi’s attack came a day after he said Modi faced an open book exam on the deal in Parliament and asked if he will show up at the exam or send a proxy.
    The Congress president had Wednesday also tweeted four questions related to the Rafale deal and demanded answers from the prime minister.
    “So it seems our PM has fled Parliament & his own open book Rafale exam & is instead lecturing students at Lovely University in Punjab, today,” Gandhi tweeted on Thursday.
    He also urged students at the university to ask the prime minister to answer the four questions posed by him.
    Gandhi had tweeted, “Here are the exam questions in advance: Q1. Why 36 aircraft, instead of the 126 the IAF needed? Q2. Why 1,600 Cr instead of 560 Cr per aircraft. Q4. Why AA instead of HAL? Will he show up? Or send a proxy?”
    He later tweeted another question, terming it as “The Missing Q3!”.
    In the third question, he asked the prime minister to tell why former defence minister Manohar Parrikar keeps a Rafale file in his bedroom and what’s in it.
  • PM attacks Cong on loan waiver promises

    Prime Minister Narendra Modi continued Saturday  with his attack on the Congress over its “unfulfilled” loan waiver promises.

    Addressing a public meeting here, Modi said only a small number of loans were waived in Karnataka after the recent assembly elections in the state, where a JD(S)-Congress government is now in power.

    He laid the foundation stone of a medical college here and released a commemorative postal stamp on Maharaja Suheldev.

    “Several important steps have being taken to transform Purvanchal into a big medical hub and to strengthen the small industries of UP,” he said.

    The prime minister will also address a meeting in Varanasi later in the day.

  • Yogi most sought-after campaigner in just-concluded Assembly polls

    Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath emerged as the most sought after star poll campaigner as he addressed 74 election meetings in the last 21 days in four poll-bound States.

    The poll results of these states will be announced on December 11. In an informal chat with this reporter, Yogi recently said that the public response was quite enthusiastic wherever he addressed rallies.

    “The election campaigning was hectic but the response of the people made my visits worthwhile,” Yogi told this reporter at his 5, Kalidas Marg official residence in Lucknow.

    “At some places, the response was unexpected. All grounds were full of audience and the people waited for me despite I being late for the meetings at certain places. Going by public response, the BJP is bound to do well in these elections,” Yogi said.

    The elections in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh and Telangana are being seen as the a semifinal before the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. The BJP used star campaigners led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi  in these elections. Among the other campaigners, Yogi Adityanath was the most sought after.

    Yogi addressed 17 rallies in Madhya Pradesh, 23 in Chhattisgarh and 26 in Rajasthan. He also campaigned in Telangana and addressed eight rallies there. Yogi’s overall tally of poll meetings was the highest for any star campaigner of the Bharatiya Janata Party.

    The saffron clad Mahant of Gorakhnath temple spoke on Ram and Hindutava in his speeches and even created a controversy by terming Lord Hanuman as a Dalit. His one-liner ‘Ali and Bajrang Bali’ made headlines when he said ‘Aapko Ali mubarak, hamare liye to Bajrangbali hi kaafi hain’.

    This may have been a part of design as the party faced tough challenge from a resurgent Congress in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh.

    The BJP worked on a two-pronged strategy. While Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath invoked Ram and Hindutava, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Shah talked about development.

    A senior BJP leader said that Yogi was much in demand in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh but he could not be accommodated properly because of tight schedule.

    “The CM used to address rallies the whole day and by the evening he used to fly back to Lucknow and hold meetings with officials,” he said.

    Another reason for his increasing demand was that he has a large followers of Nath sect in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.

  • Where have you got your knowledge on Hinduism, PM asks Cong

    Launching a stinging attack against the Congress for questioning his knowledge on Hinduism, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Monday used the dynast-worker analogy to ask the opposition party where it got its expertise on the religion.

    Addressing an election rally in this Rajasthan town, the prime minister said in a sarcastic jibe that he was a small “kaamdar” (worker) who never claimed to have full knowledge of Hinduism but the “naamdar” (dynast) has the right to speak.

    Modi has often referred to Congress president Rahul Gandhi as “naamdar”.

    He also brought up India’s first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru and first president Rajendra Prasad.

    Nehru objected to Prasad’s visit for the consecration of Somnath temple, which was destroyed by foreign invaders and renovated by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the prime minister told the gathering ahead of elections in the state on December 7.

    The country, he said, was celebrating Prasad’s birth anniversary.

    The Congress, Modi alleged, has become a university for spreading lies. People who lie more get new posts in the party, he said.

    Rahul Gandhi, he asserted, has great capacity for speaking lies.

    “The Congress’ dreams have been crushed in all states. This will happen in Rajasthan also,” he said.

    The opposition party thinks it can come to power because of the trend in Rajasthan of alternate parties forming government but this will be proved wrong in the upcoming state elections, Modi declared.

  • Editorial :- Did Imran Khan and Bajwa Beckoned Rahul Gandhi in Honey- Trap of 26/11 Gangster Hafiz Saeed?

    Is this the reason why Rahul Gandhi has done elanen jang war with Imran Khan to remove Congress and Pakistan are united to remove the Modi Government? Now, is Rahul Gandhi’s choice for any Pakistani girl after turning down the Colombian and Spanish girl? Like Shashi Tharoor’s Mehar Tarar and Amarinder Singh’s Arusha Alam.

    News of December 2, Sunday: – New weapon of terror, Honey Trap from social media. About two weeks ago, on November 17, a woman named Saeed Shajia was arrested from Bandipora. her age is 30-32 years. She used to trap youth in his network on social media and lured him to meet arms and ammunition from one place to another.

    Terrorist organizations in Kashmir valley are using Honey Trap to woo youth>> Beautiful women on social media lure young people to lure them with arms to smuggling

    >> Use as a guide for terrorists infiltrating stranded youth in Honey Trap>> On 17th November, the woman named Sayed Shazia was arrested, many other women in the valley are also active.

    Captain Sidhu said in Hyderabad that the caption (chief Minister of panjab) might be caption in the army. But he is not the caption of him. His Caption is only Rahul Gandhi   .Navjot Kaur Siddhu also said that her husband is a leader of the new generation of Congress, who believe only and only Rahul Gandhi’s words.

    Union Minister Smriti Irani has demanded an explanation from Rahul Gandhi that needs to answer about Navjot Singh Sidhu’s conduct. during his visit to Pakistan for the Kartarpur Corridor program and his statement insults the Chief Minister of his state.

    External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj also said that the ongoing dispute is between the “three captains” in the Congress. Congress President Rahul Gandhi, along with Pakistan, is making a dangerous conspiracy against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government. Rahul Gandhi’s nephew Navjot Singh Sidhu has disclosed this. Sidhu has said that he went to Pakistan only on the advice of Rahul Gandhi and met Pakistan PM Imran Khan there. Pakistan’s Imran Khan and Rahul Gandhi are one to pronounce  elanen Jung : Congress-Pakistan will joined hands remove Modi Government. Clearly, Pakistan has been disturbed by the siege of Prime Minister Modi and here in India the Congress party also wants to remove the Modi government at any cost.

    That is why Congress and Pakistan have joined hands. It is notable that it was noteworthy that on the instructions of the Congress high command earlier, Mani Shankar Aiyar also went to Pakistan and sought assistance from the ISI to remove the Modi government?

    It is also appropriate to remember one more incident in this context. During the Gujarat assembly elections, a secret meeting at Manishankar Aiyar’s house was organized to cover up a conspiracy. Manmohan Singh and Hamid Ansari on the directions of the Congress high command and some other blind devotees of Ten Janapatra, where present at that meeting to shake hand Foreign Minister Kasuri and Pakistani ambassador.

    Khalistani terrorist Gopal Chawla has taken his photographs with Sidhu and got viral in social media. But when criticized Sidhu said, I do not know Chawla. Similarly, in Hyderabad December 2, he had said that Congress President Rahul Gandhi had sent him to Pakistan.

    Not only that, Siddhu had also disclosed that after his returning from Pakistan, Congress leaders such as Shashi Tharoor, Surajwala and Harish Rawat raised their enthusiasm by patting his back. But today, the same  Navjot Sidhu who is saying that he did not go Pakistan by the instruction of Congress President Rahul Gandhi.

    Navjot Sidhu is now fame of social media: After the defectors, anti-country protesters now become Paltu Siddhu-Budhu. The media should now stop glorifying politicians as well. If a leader gives a statement before the media, then he should be brought to light. But later, if he speaks the white lie and rejects it then it would be good if the media did not discuss this to highlight the white lire.

    Rahul Gandhi is likely to be trapped in the Pakistani Honey Trap. This is the possibility we have expressed that before his party’s top leader Shashi Tharoor and presently Punjab’s Chief Minister Amarinder Singh have also been trapped in the Honey Trap.

  • India hopes for early resumption of dialogue between Palestine, Israel

    Expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said India hopes for an early resumption of dialogue between Palestine and Israel for moving towards a comprehensive and negotiated resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

    In his message on the occasion of the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian people, Modi said, “I wish to convey India’s strong support for the Palestinian cause and to express our solidarity with the Palestinian people in their efforts to establish a sovereign, independent and united State of Palestine co-existing peaceful with the State of Israel.

    He said as the Day is marked, “we hope for an early resumption of dialogue between Palestine and Israel for moving towards a comprehensive and negotiated resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.”

    Modi underscored that historical ties between India and Palestine have further strengthened in recent years, adding that his visit to Ramallah in February this year was the first visit by an Indian Prime Minister to Palestine.

    “The visit was an assertion of India’s strong commitment for the development of Palestine.”

    India has announced an increase in the annual scholarships for Palestinian students, six new projects including construction of a specialty hospital and an increase in its annual contribution to UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East).

    “Our financial and technical assistance is an expression of our strong resolve to strengthen Palestinian institutions,” Modi said.

    In his message Wednesday, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said a two-State solution where Israel and Palestine live side-by-side as sovereign nations is still “the only option” for lasting peace, and “containing the situation is not sufficient.”

    Guterres said more than 40 years ago, the General Assembly established an International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian people to remind “us of our collective, unfinished task of resolving the question of Palestine. Over the decades, this has become one of the most intractable challenges for the international community, and we know only too well the tragic results.”

    He called on Palestinian and Israeli leaders “to restore faith in the promise” of the UN General Assembly resolution of two States living side-by-side in peace and security, fulfilling the legitimate national aspirations of both peoples, with borders based on the 1967 lines and Jerusalem as the capital of both states – East Jerusalem being the capital of the Palestinian state.”

  • Modi, BJP raking up caste, religion as they have nothing to talk about development: Cong

    The Congress on Sunday alleged that BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi have nothing to talk about development, which is why they are raking up caste and religion in their public rallies.

    Former Union Minister Jitin Prasada claimed that people had expected the Prime Minister to speak on development issues at his rally in Alwar on Sunday, but instead of telling that what the BJP Government did for Rajasthan, he talked about religion and other such issues.

    This reveals that Modi and the BJP have nothing to say anything on development, he said, adding Modi’s rally in Alwar was full of “nervousness”.

    Prasada also accused the BJP Government at the Centre of failing to check rise in fuel prices, which affected every household in the country. Meanwhile, Raj Cong chief Sachin Pilot held public meetings in Jharapatan in support of party candidate Manvendra Singh and claimed that the people of the State were “betrayed” by Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje due to which there is extreme resentment the electorate against the Government.

  • BJP runs Govt ‘comparatively better’ than Cong: Rajnath

    Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Wednesday claimed that the BJP has run the Government “comparatively better” than the Congress and blamed the Opposition party for a “credibility crisis” in politics after Independence.

    Talking to reporters in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh, Singh asserted that the country was currently witnessing “achchhe din” (good days) and it was a matter of perception how people saw it.

    He also defended BJP-led Government at the Centre over the Rafale jet deal row.

    “Indian economy is the fastest growing economy in the world due to the charismatic work of our Prime Minister (Narendra Modi). India (people) has accepted that BJP is a political party which runs the Government comparatively better than the Congress,” Singh told reporters here.

    “I said comparatively… No political party is perfect, neither are we, I never made such a claim. All political parties have shortcomings. But this (BJP) is a political party which works better, comparatively,” he asserted.
