MODI TWEETS 8-YR REPORT CARD!
New Delhi: Prime Min-
ister Narendra Modi on
Saturday hailed the
government's reforms
to mark the eight years
of his government in
power. The prime min-
ister tweeted three
news pieces highlight-
ing the government's
achievements in mak-
ing India 'Atmanirbhar'
or self-reliant.
The article spoke
about the 'Atmanirbhar
Bharat' slogan which
the prime minister
coined during the peak
of Covid-19 pandemic.
It spoke about India's
initiative of exporting
medicines to 100 coun-
tries and dispatching
more than 20 crore jabs
to the needy countries.
Crediting the self-re-
liant India vision, it
spoke on how India's
exports hit record highs
while foreign invest-
ment in India reached
record level.
"Clearly, the world
wants to trade with In-
dia and considers it a
reliable partner in the
post-COVID world or-
der," the article read.
The Narendra Modi
government has been
hailed for its efforts to
protect the overseas In-
dians and Indian inter-
ests across the world.
Aditionally, there
have been several re-
forms to ensure a strong
domestic defence man-
ufacturing ecosystem.
The government has
also focused on ensur-
ing that India becomes
a major exporter of
arms. "From setting up
defence corridors to
corporatising the ord-
nance factories to in-
crease in FDI in the de-
fence sector, many steps
have helped in the pace
of development," PM
Modi wrote.

Sisodia accuses Assam
CM Sarma of corruption
AAP leader Manish Sisodia alleges that Himanta Sarma gave
govt PPE kit deals to firms of wife, son’s business partners
New Delhi: Hitting
back at BJP and union
government on the ar-
rest of Satyendar Jain
on “bogus charges of
corruption’, AAP leader
Manish Sisodia alleged
that while India battled
the Covid pandemic in
2020, the then Assam
health minister Him-
anta Biswa Sarma gave
contracts to companies
of his wife and son’s
business partners to
supply PPE kits above
market rates, AAP lead-
er Manish Sisodia al-
leged on Saturday citing
media reports.
At a press conference,
he claimed that while
the Assam government
procuredPPEkitsforRs
600 a piece from other
companies, Sarma gave
urgent supply orders to
the firms of his wife and
son’s business partners
for Rs 990 a piece “tak-
ing advantage of the
Covid-19 emergency”.
The firm belonging to
Sarma’s wife does not
even deal in medical
equipment, he alleged.
“While the contract
given to the firm of Sar-
ma’s wife was cancelled
as the company could
not supply PPE kits, an-
other supply order was
given to the firm be-
longing to the business
partners of his son at a
rate of Rs 1,680 per kit,”
Sisodia said citing the
media report.

SISODIA QUESTIONS
 The AAP leader asked why the members of the BJP
were silent on corruption by a chief minister of a state
ruled by the saffron party.
 “They talk of corruption and level baseless
allegations against members of opposition parties.
I want to probe their understanding of corruption…
want to ask them if they consider this (Assam case)
corruption or not,” Sisodia added.

Bhalswa fire releases toxic
gases; landfill removal sought
Locals residing near Bhalswa landfill site said they are facing breathing issues
New Delhi (Agencies):
Locals residing near
Delhi’s Bhalswa landfill
site said they are facing
breathing issues and
have demanded a per-
manent solution to the
frequent fires, which
often rage for days at a
stretch.
Yesterday, the
Bhalswa landfill site
caught fire in the after-
noon and since today,
plumes of smoke have
continued to emanate
from the site.
Earlier in April,
dense plumes of smoke
kept billowing out from
the site after a fire
broke out on April 26
and firefighters battled
to douse the flames for
six consecutive days.
“I have been living
here for the last 20 years
and have been seeing
this from that time. No
changes happened in
this landfill. We are fac-
ing many problems like
breathing and cough-
ing. etc. We want a per-
manent solution for
this,” a local resident
said.

New Delhi (PTI):The
Delhi High Court has
stayed a trial court or-
der allowing the pres-
ence of a lawyer at a
visiblebutnotaudible
distance during the
interrogationof Delhi
Minister Satyendar
Jain, arrested by the
Enforcement Directo-
rate in a money laun-
dering case.
Justice Yogesh
Khanna observed that
when there is credible
material to indicate
the real and live ap-
prehension of a pos-
sible threat or coer-
cion being employed
at the time of record-
ing of statement, such
a direction may be
passed but since there
is no apprehension
raised in the present
matter, the direction
ought not to have been
given as a matter of
right. The judge, who
had on June 3 re-
served its order on the
Enforcement Directo-
rate’s plea challeng-
ing the direction, fur-
ther noted that since
there is neither any
FIR nor a complaint
against the AAP lead-
er, he cannot as a mat-
ter of right claim to
have the presence of
his lawyers during
the course of record-
ing of his statement.
New Delhi (PTI): After
receiving a “large num-
ber of complaints” from
the general public and
civic employees, au-
thorities at the Munici-
pal Corporation of Del-
hi have decided that a
daily ‘Jan Sunwai’ will
be held at its headquar-
ters and the zonal offic-
es to address grievanc-
es, officials said.

the ‘Jan Sunwai’ cam-
paign on Friday and

prove to be a “milestone
in the dissemination of
civic services”.

cial order dated June 3,

New Delhi (PTI): The
number of retail liquor
stores in the city has
gone down by around
200, with many licen-
sees quitting the busi-
ness due to “financial
losses” and problems
faced by them under
new excise policy re-
gime, sources have said.
A total of 849 liquor
store licences were is-
sued by Delhi govern-
ment last year under its
excise policy 2021-22.
However, only 639 stores
were still open by May
end this year, according
to official figures
The latest list of re-
tail liquor stores shared
by the excise depart-
ment on its website
showed that the num-
ber has gone down to
464 in June.
The excise policy
2021-22 that ended on
May 31 was extended by
two months by the Del-
hi government’s excise
department offering the
retail licensees chance
to renew their licenses
paying fees on the pro
rata basis for the extra
period. However, many
license holders did not
opt for the extension
and shut shops as they
were already finding it
difficult to reach break
even after paying high
license fees, liquor trad-
ers claimed
“There were different
reasons that dampened
the spirit of retailers,
like the issue of open-
ing liquor stores in
non-conforming wards,
the cut-throat competi-
tion waged by heavy
discounts, and the en-
try of new brands in the
market,” said a liquor
trader.

CRUCIAL READ
New Delhi (PTI): A
13-year-old boy, who
breathed through a tra-
cheostomy tube for over
10 years, underwent a
complicatedbutsuccess-
ful surgery at Sir Ganga
Ram Hospital here.
As a toddler, Shrikant
had suffered a head in-
jury and had to be kept
on a ventilator for a
long time.
The long-term venti-
lation narrowed his
windpipe. He then un-
derwent a tracheosto-
my in which doctors
inserted a tube into the
windpipe by creating
an opening in the neck.
Due to a long period
of tracheostomy and a
missing portion of the
windpipe, there was no
airway for him to
breathe normally. The
boy had neither spoken
nor eaten normally for
the last seven years,
doctors at Sir Ganga
Ram Hospital said.
“When I first saw the
patient, I felt it was go-
ing to be a very compli-
cated airway and voice
box surgery. I had not
seen anything like this
in my 15 years of prac-
tice. The child had 100
per cent stenosis (block-
age) of the cricoid and
tracheal complex (air
pipe),” said Dr Manish
Munjal, Senior Consult-
ant, ENT Department.

First India Bureau
Lucknow: Samajwadi
Party has 111 MLAs in
Uttar Pradesh and is
supported by eight
MLAs from Rashtriya
Lok Dal and six from
Suheldev Bharatiya Sa-
maj Party. Thus the to-
tal strength of the oppo-
sition is 125 MLAs.
Apart from this, Con-
gress has two MLAs and
Raghuraj Pratap’s
Jansatta Dal also has
two MLAs. SP will win
three Rajya Sabha seats
on its own and its allies,
but it is getting only one
seat. The national presi-
dent of SP has given two
seats to others due to
the compulsion of alli-
ance, legal force and the
compulsion of internal
politics of the party.
Think, Jharkhand Muk-
ti Morcha government
in Jharkhand is run-
ning with the support
of 17 Congress MLAs
and Sonia Gandhi her-
self called and talked to
Chief Minister Hemant
Soren, despite this He-
mant did not give one
seat to Congress, while
Akhilesh left two seats.
Three Samajwadi
Party MPs are retiring
as the tenure of Revati
Raman Singh, Vish-
wambhar Nishad and
Sukhram Singh Yadav
has come to an end. But
instead of these three,
SP
, of its own doing, has
got only one seat. Akh-
ilesh Yadav himself sat
down and nominated
Kapil Sibal and Jayant
Chaudhary
, but both are
not becoming MPs of
his party
. Sibal is an in-
dependent and Jayant
Choudhary will become
the RLD MP. Technical-
ly only one MP from SP
will be elected i.e. Javed
Ali. Therefore, SP is fac-
ing a direct loss of two
RS seats, even though
the number game is in
its favour.
If Akhilesh wanted,
he could have put pres-
sure on Sibal to go to
Rajya Sabha on SP tick-
et instead of as an inde-
pendent. But he didn’t.
One was the pressure of
Azam Khan and second-
ly he himself was feel-
ing the need of a big
lawyer in Delhi. The
compulsion to give tick-
et to Jayant Chaudhary
was because now he has
aligned with all the par-
ties in the state except
the BJP
.
He fought elections
with almost all parties
like Congress, SP, RLD,
Suheldev Bharatiya Sa-
maj Party
.
In politics, if one
keeps leaving every-
one’s side, then it will be
difficult to find a col-
league in the future. So
it was necessary for SP
to hold RLD’s side.
Why did Akhilesh settle for just one RS seat?

New Delhi: Congress
MP Karti Chidambaram
on Saturday moved the
Delhi high court seeking
anticipatory bail in the
case registered by the

alleged Chinese visa
scam, PTI reported. The
bail application comes
day after the trial court
dismissed his anticipa-
tory bail plea. On Friday,
the trial court had
rejected the bail plea of
Karti Chidambaram and
two others saying that
the offence was very
serious in nature. The
court had also vacated
the interim protection
from arrest granted to
the accused during the
pendency of the bail
plea. The ED hadbooked
Karti Chidambaram and
others in connection for
money laundering in
the case pertaining to
the issuance of visas to
263 Chinese nationals
to work on a project in
Punjab in 2011. The

HYDERABAD GANG-RAPE CASE: ARRESTS INCLUDE SON OF LEADER FROM CM KCR’S PARTY
THE STORY SO FAR
After victim’s
statement, police
say MLA’s son
not involved
The police arrested
Saduddin Malik (18)
on Friday. The juvenile
was also identified on
Friday but because
it was night time, he
could not be appre-
hended as per rules.
He was arrested on
Saturday morning.
Another key accused
has been identified as
Omair Khan (18).The
Deputy Commissioner
of Police (West Zone)
clarified that as per
the girl’s statement
and other evidence, no
MLA’s son was among
the accused.

reveal anything
except one name,
says police
DCP Joel Davis said

reveal anything about
the culprits except just
one name. They have
formed special teams
to arrest the accused.

culprits as per CCTV
footage and as per
the statement of the
victim,” Davis said.

involves children and
grandchildren of
politicians; one of the
juveniles is the son of
a prominent person

complaint after
noticing injury
marks on neck

the girl’s father said
that his 17-year-old
daughter had gone to
a non-alcoholic party
at a pub in Jubilee
Hills on Saturday.

turns to rape her while
others stood guard
outside the car. The
involvement of teenag-
ers belonging to vari-
ous affluent families
is expected.

Indians regained confidence of self
identity under Modi regime: Dr Singh
Dehradun: Indians,
both within the country
as well as those living
abroad, regained confi-
dence of self-identity
under the Modi regime
in 8 years.He said , prior
to 2014, there was an at-
mosphere of despera-
tion, pessimism and
hopelessness among av-
erage Indians and the
Indian youth living
abroad sometimes even
felt hesitant to reveal
their identity ,but after
the arrival of Narendra
Modi as PM, India and
Indians began to be
looked up with respect
and esteem.

Vadodara: Kshama
Bindu, the woman from
Gujarat’s Vadodara,
who is set to marry her-
self on June 11, received
a strong reaction to her
decision from the
(BJP) city unit’s deputy
chief Sunita Shukla.
Shukla said that if
Bindu was planning on
getting married in a
temple, that wouldn’t be
allowed as “such mar-
riages are against Hin-
duism.”
Shukla also called
Bindu “mentally ill.”
Citing the Hindu cul-
ture, Shukla said that
“nowhere in Hindu cul-
ture is it written that a
boy can marry a boy or
a girl can marry a girl.”
She said that she was
against Bindu’s choice
of the venue and that
“she’ll not be allowed to
marry herself in any
temple.”
“If anything goes
against religion, then
no law will prevail,”
Shukla asserted.

YADAVS HAVE EDGE IN AZAMGARH
Gyanendra Kumar Shukla
Lucknow: The Yadav-
Muslim factor has domi-
nated the Lok Sabha
seat of this city, which
has been the birthplace
of many eminent per-
sonalities of the literary
world. It is worth men-
tioning that the bye-elec-
tion was necessitated af-
ter Akhilesh Yadav, who
wasMPfromAzamgarh,
resignedafterhewonthe
recent assembly elec-
tions from the Karhal
seatof Mainpuridistrict.
According to the data
released by the Election
Commission for the
year 2019, the Azam-
garh Lok Sabha constit-
uency had around 17
lakh registered voters.
In terms of population,
out of these, the upper
castes constitute 17 per
cent, Dalits 25 percent
and OBCs are close to 40
percent. Among the
OBCs, around 21% are
estimated to be non-Ya-
davs. Of these, 19 per
cent Yadav and 18 per
cent Muslim voters to-
gether form the win-
ning combination,
which has been in the
role of kingmaker for
many decades.
As a result of these
casteequations,thewin-
ner or runner-up in this
seat for six consecutive
decades has been a can-
didate belonging to the
Yadav community
. In
the 15 general elections
and two by-elections
held since 1962, thirteen
times the candidates of
the Yadav community
won the elections.

A NAUSEATING
ADVERTISEMENT
THAT PROMOTES
RAPE CULTURE
perfume ad has
raised a stink for us-
ing double entendre
dialogue and the gov-
ernment has ordered
the ad to be taken down as it pro-
motes rape culture. The risqué
ad has been given thumbs down
on social media. One Twitter
user said that the communica-
tions agency has “messed up big
time.” The questions being
asked are about who cleared the
ad and if there are any ethical
checks on ad agencies. The Ad-
vertising Standards Council of
India has described it as a “seri-
ous breach of the ASCI Code.”
This is not the first time that
an ad with sexual overtones has
stirred a controversy. Starting
with Pooja Bedi-Robinson’s ad
for a condom in 1991 and Milind
Soman-Madhu Sapre advert of
a shoe brand, ad agencies have
attempted to cross the line.
They stirred a debate on nudity
but never ventured near rape
promotion. Whatever action is
being planned in the present
case, it should serve as a deter-
rent for others.
A
nforcement Direc-
torate’s summons
to Congress Presi-
dent Sonia Gan-
dhi and her son
Rahul for money laundering
in the National Herald case is
not a good omen if one goes
by the fate of opposition lead-
ers who have so far faced the
ED. Heading the list is P. Chi-
dambaram, former Finance
Minister, who was first ar-
rested by the CBI in the INX
Media case in 2019. After he
had spent over 50 days in
Tihar jail, the ED got his cus-
tody in the same case. Chid-
ambaram’s son Karti is now
in ED’s cross-hairs.
Relief from courts is diffi-
cult to come by as was seen in
Chidambaram and other po-
litical leaders’ cases. The lat-
est victim of the ED has been
Aam Aadmi Party leader
Satyender Jain who was ar-
rested towards the end of
May after several appearanc-
es before the investigating
agency in connection with
alleged hawala transactions.
Maharashtra’s Shiv Sena
leader Anil Parab, National-
ist Congress Party’s Nawab
Malik and Anil Deshmukh,
all ministers in the Maha Vi-
kas Aghadi government are
in jail under the Prevention
of Money Laundering Act.
All of them have been denied
relief by courts. Waiting in
the queue are Karnataka’s
DK Shivakumar and TMC’s
Abhishek Banerjee.
The Gandhis who, like oth-
ers, are facing accusations of
money laundering are lead-
ers whom Prime Minister
Narendra Modi and Home
Minister Amit Shah may
want to see pinned to finish
off the Congress before 2024
Lok Sabha elections. The ED
is best equipped to do that. At
this point there must be ap-
prehension in the minds of
party leaders, and for good
reason too.

Jawaharlal Nehru replied to
Gandhiji’s letter on October 9, 1945
My dear Bapu,
have received today, on my return from
Lucknow, your letter of 5th October. I
am glad you have written to me fully and
I shall try to reply at some length but I
hope you will forgive me if there is some
delay in this, as I am at present tied up
with close-fitting engagements. I am
only here now for a day and a half. It is
really better to have informal talks but just at present
I do not know when to fit this in. I shall try.
Briefly put, my view is that the question before us is
not one of truth versus untruth or non-violence versus
violence. One assumes as one must that true coopera-
tion and peaceful methods must be aimed at, and a
society which encourages these must be our objec-
tives. The whole question is how to achieve this society
and what its content should be. I do not understand
why village should necessarily embody truth and non-
violence. A village, normally speaking, is backward in-
tellectually and culturally and no progress can be made
from a backward environment. Narrow minded people
are much more likely to be untruthful and violent.
Then again we have to put down certain objectives
like a sufficiency of food, clothing, housing, education,
sanitation etc. which should be the minimum require-
ments for the country and for everyone. It is with
these objectives in view that we must find out specifi-
cally how to attain them speedily. Again it seems to
me inevitable that modern means of transport as well
as many other modern developments must continue
and be developed. There is no way out of it except to
have them. If that is so, inevitably a measure of heavy
industry exists. How far will that fit in with a purely
village society? Personally I hope that heavy or light
industries should all be decentralised as far as pos-
sible and this is feasible now because of the develop-
ment of electric power. If two types of economy exist
in the country there should be either conflict between
the two or one will overwhelm the other.
The question of independence and protection from
foreign aggression, both political and economic, has
also to be considered in this context. I do not think it is
possible for India to be really independent unless she is
a technically advanced country. I am not thinking for the
moment in terms of just armies but rather of scientific
growth. In the present context of the world we cannot
even advance culturally without a strong background of
scientific research in every department. There is today
in the world a tremendous acquisitive tendency both
in individual and groups and nations, which lead to
conflicts and wars. Our entire society is based on this
more or less. That basis must go and be transformed
into one of cooperation, which is cut off from the rest of
world, but rather one isolated India may well be a kind
of vacuum which increase the acquisitive tendencies of
others and thus creates conflicts.
There is no question of palaces for millions of
people. But there seems to be no reason why mil-
lions should not have comfortable up-to-date homes
where they can lead a cultured existence. Many of the
present overgrown cities have developed evils which
are deplorable. Probably we have to discourage this
overgrowth and at the same time encourage the vil-
lage to approximate more to the culture of the town.
It is many years ago since I read Hind Swaraj and
I have only a vague picture in my mind. But even
when I read it 20 or more years ago it seemed to
me completely unreal. In your writing and speeches
since then I have found much that seemed to me an
advance on that old position and an appreciation of
modern trends. I was therefore surprised when you
told us that the old picture still remains intact in your
mind. As you know, the Congress has never asked it
to adopt it except for certain relatively minor aspects
of it. How far it is desirable for the Congress to con-
sider these fundamental questions, involving varying
philosophies of life, it is for you to judge. I should
imagine that a body like the Congress should not lose
itself in arguments over such matters which can only
produce great confusion in people’s minds resulting in
inability to act in the present. This may also result in
creating barriers between the Congress and others in
the country. Ultimately of course this and other ques-
tions will have to be decided by representatives of free
India. I have a feeling that most of these questions are
thought of and discussed in terms of long ago, ignor-
ing the vast changes that have taken places all over
the world during the last generations or more. It is 38
years since Hind Swaraj was written. The world has
completely changed since then, possibly in a wrong
direction. In any event any consideration of these
questions must keep present facts, forces and the hu-
man material we have today in view, otherwise it will
be divorced from reality. You are right in saying that
the world, or a large part of it, appears to be bent on
committing suicide. That may be an inevitable devel-
opment of an evil seed in civilisation that has grown.
I think it is so. How to get rid of this evil, and yet how
to keep the good in the present as in the past is our
problem. Obviously there is good too in the present.
These are some random thoughts hurriedly written
down and I fear they do injustice to the grave import
of the questions raised. You will forgive me, I hope,
for this jumbled presentation. Later, I shall try to write
more clearly on the subject.
I hope you are keeping well and have completely
recovered from the attack of influenza.
Yours affectionately
Jawaharlal

Rakesh Tikait has ac-
cused the BJP of plot-
ting to get him killed.
Tikait termed the ink
attack on him in Karna-
taka recently, a “well-
planned conspiracy”.
“Thegovtwantstoget
me killed to break the
Tikait family and the

this will never happen,”
he said. Tikait was ad-
dressing a review meet-
ingof BKUatDharmesh-

trict. He said that just as
Mahatma Gandhi was
shot dead by conspira-
tors , people who raise
the voice for the country
and the farmers of the
country are on the tar-
get of the conspirators.
“If some harm comes to
oneTikait,thenlakhsof

,” he said.
Targeting the Central
government, he said
that the government is
trying hard to disturb

cannot because of its

First India Bureau
New Delhi: Senior ad-
vocate Kapil Sibal has
now become available
for many more parties.
Earlier he used to fight
the cases of Congress
leaders. Only when he
got angry with the Con-
gress and left the party,
the Congress leaders
were left, for a moment,
to fend for themselves.
Several leaders began
to inquire whether
Sibal would contest
their case or not. Later,
everyone was assured
by Sibal that he would
continue to fight the
cases of Congress lead-
ers. The first trial in
which Sibal appeared in
court on his return to
Delhi after filing his
nomination with the
support of the Sama-
jwadi Party in Lucknow
was that of Congress
leader P Chidambaram.
After this the confi-
dence of the Congress
leaders returned.
Meanwhile, there is
news that now Sibal can
also fight the case of
Aam Aadmi Party lead-
ers. Keep in mind that
Congress and AAP are
on opposite ends of the
spectrum, but there has
been a lot of ‘friendship’
between AAP and SP.
SP’s Sanjay Singh had
also talked about an alli-
ance in the assembly
elections. Recently,
when AAP leader and
Delhi government min-
ister Satyendar Jain
wasarrested,thediscus-
sion started that Sibal
would fight his case.
Shortly after his arrest,
Sibal tweeted and ques-
tioned the Money Laun-
dering Act (PMLA) and
said that this law is be-
ing misused for political
purposes. So, Sibal is
now available for Con-
gress as well as Sama-
jwadi Party and Aam
Aadmi Party
.

minister Sharad Pawar
praised Union cabinet
minister Nitin Gadkari
as the voice of Maha-

growers in the Centre.
Pawar, who was speak-

vocacy for the sugar in-
dustry, especially in
production of ethanol,
has helped many mills
get profit.
Earlier, Pawar had
talked about the need to
increase cane acreage
in the Vidharbha re-

also said that the Gos-
ekhurd project would
help in increasing the
availability of water in
the region. “Cane was a

region but over the
years, farmers have di-
verted to other crops.
5-year-old girl’s sample sent for testing
Ghaziabad (Agen-

five-year-old was col-
lected for monkeypox
testing as a precau-
tionary measure after
she complained of
itching and rashes on
her body, the chief
medical officer (CMO)
of Uttar Pradesh’s
Ghaziabad told ANI on
Saturday
.
The CMO added the
girl didn’t have any
other health issues
and nor had she or any
of her close contacts
traveled abroad in the
past month.
The World Health
Organisation on
Thursday said that the
monkeypox virus has
spread to more than 30
nations and about 550
confirmed cases have
been reported.
The WHO classifies
non-endemic coun-
tries as those which
are reporting chains
of transmission for
the first time without
any known epidemio-
logical links.
Recently, the Indian
government also is-
sued guidelines relat-
ed to the disease.
THE STORY SO FAR
MONKEYPOX
GUIDELINES
WHAT ARE THE
SYMPTOMS?
FIRST HUMAN CASE
IDENTIFIED IN 1970
The Union Health
Ministry on Tuesday
had issued “Guidelines
on Management of
Monkeypox Disease.”
Even though India
hasn’t reported any
monkeypox cases yet,
the ministry has acted
proactively to ensure
advance preparedness
across the country. It
stressed surveillance,
rapid identification.
There is no
confirmation of
monkeypox case in
India as per the
government. After the
sample of the minor in
Ghaziabad was sent
for testing for
monkeypox,
government health
sources said it is
“unnecessary panic
mongering” as no
cases are reported.
According to the WHO,
the incubation period
for monkeypox is
usually 7−14 days but
can range between
5−21 days, too.
Following this, fever,
rash, severe headache,
backache, muscle
aches (myalgia),
intense asthenia (lack
of energy), and
swollen lymph nodes
kick in.
The first case of human
monkeypox was identified
in 1970 in a Congo boy
(9), two years after
smallpox had been
eradicated from the region.
WHAT IS THE
DISEASE EXACTLY?
CONTAINING
INFECTION
Mostly transmitted to
humans from animals,
monkeypox is a viral
zoonotic disease. Most
cases of the
monkeypox infection
are found in West and
Central Africa.
According to the WHO,
the monkeypox virus
is similar to human
smallpox. Although
monkeypox is said to
be much milder than
smallpox, with a
mortality rate of up to
10%, it can be fatal in
rare cases. Monkeypox spreads
through “close
contact with
lesions, body fluids,
respiratory
droplets.” Since it
is spread by close
contact, it can be
contained through
measures such as
self-isolation.
Getting threats: Bengali

post became viral after
KK passed away post
performing live at Kol-
kata’s Nazrul Mancha.
Soon after, the video
spread like wildfire and
Rupankar Bagchi was

actors took a stand
against the singer. After
facing online furore
and threats, Rupankar
issued a public apology
to KK’s family
.
Bengali singer Ru-
pankar Bagchi made
certain controversial
remarks against KK,
hours before his live
concert at Kolkata’s
Nazrul Mancha on May
31. While Rupankar was
already receiving social
media flak for his com-
ments, KK’s passing
further created an up-
roar. Rupankar was
brutally trolled on so-
cial media. He received
threats for his com-
ments against the late
singer. At a press con-
ference, the Bengali
singer issued an ‘un-
conditional apology’ to
KK’s family. Speaking
to the media at Kolkata
Press Club, Rupankar
said, “My uncondition-
al apology for KK’s fam-
ily, the people of Mum-
bai and scores of his
fans, people who loved
him in Kolkata and all
over the country. I re-
gret the momentary in-
discretion as I was mak-

Chandigarh: Calls for
a consensus candidate,
including Sidhu Moose-
wala‘s father, having
fallen through, the San-
grur Lok Sabha bypoll
is set to be an interest-
ing contest. With a day
to go for the deadline to
file nomination papers
ending, the Congress
and BJP were the only
parties yet to field can-
didates.
The Aam Aadmi Par-
ty has fielded its San-
grur district president
and a sarpanch, Gur-
mel Singh. The seat
holds high stakes for
the ruling party, having
been vacated by Chief
Minister Bhagwant
Mann on being elected
to the Assembly. AAP
zeroed in on Gurmel,
after toying with other
names, and the CM was
present for the filing of
his nomination papers
Saturday
.
Veteran SAD (Amrit-
sar) leader Simranjit
Singh Mann also filed
his nomination papers
Saturday, ignoring an
appeal for another joint
candidate. An Akali Dal
delegation led by for-
mer CM Sukhbir Badal
had called on him at his
Sangrur residence Fri-
day seeking that a fam-
ily member of one of
the Sikh political pris-
oners languishing in
jails be fielded by them
together.
On Saturday evening,
the Akali Dal an-
nounced Kamaldeep
Kaur Rajoana, the sis-
ter of Beant Singh as-
sassination convict Bal-
want Singh Rajoana, as
its candidate.

New Delhi (Agen-
cies): Steel prices in
the domestic market
have fallen by almost a
tenth in the two weeks
since the Centre levied
export duty on the al-
loy, a trend under-
scored by the seasonal
slowdown in demand.
Prices of domestic
benchmark hot-rolled
coil (HRC) steel at the
traders’ end have
slipped by about 8% or
5,500 to about 63,800
per tonne since May 18,
according to SteelMint,
a market intelligence
agency. Top steelmak-
ers have also quoted
prices for June that are
lower by 4,500-5,500 a
tonne, said people with
knowledge of the mat-
ter.
The government lev-
ied a 15% export duty
on steel, effective May
22, to rein in prices in
its bid to arrest infla-
tion. It also levied a
steep duty on the ex-
port of iron ore while
cutting the import duty
on key raw materials
such as coal to reduce
the cost of steel pro-
duction. While these
measures have helped
tame prices in the do-
mestic market, the de-
cline began before the
changes.
“Globally too, prices
have been correcting,”
said Ranjan Dhar, chief
marketing officer, Ar-
celorMittal Nippon
Steel India.
“Prices have come
down in the US, UK,
and China, thus there
is a correction in India
too,” Dhar said. “We to-
tally understand and
appreciate the govern-
ment’s concern on in-
flation and hope with
these corrections,
which have already
happened, these con-
cerns are more than ad-
dressed.”

TRAI defers
implementation
of new tariff order
The Telecom Regulato-
ry Authority of India
(TRAI)hasextendedthe
deadline for the imple-
mentation of New Tar-
iff Order (NTO) 2.0 for
broadcasters to Novem-
ber 30. Earlier, NTO 2.0
was supposed to be im-
plemented from June 1.
This means the new
consumer pricing for
TV channels and bou-
quets for subscribers
will now come into ef-
fect from November 30.
Under NTO 2.0, Trai
has reduced the cap on
the maximum retail
price of individual
channels that can be
part of a bouquet to Rs
12fromRs19permonth.
The order also sets con-
ditions for formation of
channel bouquets.
TheIndianBroadcast-
ing Foundation is op-
posed to this move but
has failed to get any re-
lief from the court.
Trai has initiated an-
other consultation pro-
cess in the matter to
address the concerns of
stakeholders. It said the
decision was taken
“keeping in view the
ongoing consultation
process”.
Trai had received
several representations
from distribution plat-
form operators, which
are MSOs and DTH ser-
vice providers, and
local cable operators,
which highlighted
the challenges in the
implementation of the
NTO 2.0.

The Open Network for

Without an open plat-
form like the ONDC, the
existence of small retail-

Essar power to sell transmission
line to Adani for `1913 crore
New Delhi (PTI): Es-
sar Power said it has
entered into a definitive
agreement with Adani
Transmission to sell
one of its two transmis-
sion lines for `1,913
crore.
Essar Power Trans-
mission Company has
465-km transmission
lines across three Indi-
an states. The asset
transacted is an opera-
tional 400 kV inter-state
transmission line link-
ing Mahan to Sipat
pooling substation. The
project operates under
the Central Electricity
Regulatory Commis-
sion (CERC) regulated
return framework.
In a statement, Essar
Power said it “has en-
tered into a definitive
agreement with Adani
Transmission Ltd to
sell one of its two trans-
mission lines for `1,913
crore”.
In the last three
years, Essar Power has
reduced its debt from a
peak level of around
`30,000 crore to `6,000
crore. It has also been in
the process of curating
a green balance sheet
around renewable en-
ergy, which is in line
with its strategy of in-
vesting in future-cen-
tric businesses which
give a superior rate of
return within the ESG
framework. New Delhi (Agen-
cies): Tata Group’s
acquisition of Air In-
dia is likely to run into
a regulatory wall in
Singapore and now
the Indian conglomer-
ate needs to convince
that the takeover does
not violate the coun-
try’s anti-competition
laws.
The country’s anti-
trust body
, Singapore’s
Competition and
Consumer Commis-
sion (CCCS) on Friday
observed that Air
India and Vistara,
which is a 51:49 joint
venture between Tata
Group and Singapore
Airlines, are two of
the three key market
players that operate
flights on Singapore-
Mumbai and Singa-
pore-Delhi routes,
resulting in overlap-
ping of both air pas-
senger and transport
routes.
“Both airlines are
likely to be each oth-
er’s close, if not the
closest, competitor,”
the CCCS has ob-
served.
About 2,600 workers of
Ford India Pvt Ltd’s
plant at Maraimalaina-
gar continue their pro-
test demanding better
compensation as the
company has decided to
shut down its Maraim-
alainagar plant near
here, said a union offi-
cial.
“The management
has offered 85 days pay
for every completed
year of service. Also, a
fixed sum of Rs 42,500
for every completed
year of service. Earlier
they had offered 75 days
of salary and the fixed
sum at Rs 20,000 for eve-
ry completed year of
service,” a worker un-
ion official told IANS
preferring anonymity
.
However, the Ford In-
dia workers citing an-
other car maker’s com-
pensation scheme are
demanding about 135
days of salary for every
completed year of ser-
vice and also taking
care of the income tax
burden.

New Delhi (ANI):
Withtheaimtostrength-

said party OBC Morcha
national president K

Laxman said, “The

Working Committee
meeting in Hyderabad
in July after 20 years
carries much signifi-
cance. Recently top lead-
ers like PM Modi, Home

Now party's top leader-

give a message that the
BJP govt will be formed
in Telangana next year
and people will get solu-

“Whether Assembly
polls in Telangana oc-
cur in 2023 or before,
BJP is confident to win.
In the by-elections in
the state, the BJP per-
formed well. In the last
Hyderabad municipal
polls, BJP registered a
record win with 48 cor-
porators,” he said.
Laxman said BJP is
the only alternative in
Telangana since Con-
gress has no existence
in the state and country
.
“In case Cong wins
one or two seats, the
MLAs will join TRS. So,
people have lost trust in
Congress. BJP is the
only alternative,” said
Laxman.
After Karnataka and
Puducherry in the
south, it has been de-

government in Telan-

the BJP leaders said,
“Today there is a family

Naqvi’s candidature
for Rampur Lok Sabha
seat had gained curren-
cy in party circles after
he was denied a berth in
the Rajya Sabha. But
with that possibility
also coming to an end,
the only Muslim Minis-
ter in the Modi govt will
now have to resign from
the Union Cabinet.
In fact, the BJP which
has — MJ Akbar, Syed
Zafar Islam and
Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi
— will not have any
Muslim representatives
in the Rajya Sabha as
the term of these three
lawmakers comes to an
end by July
.
Akbar, who was also a
junior minister of exter-
nal affairs till October
2018 will retire on June
29, and Islam and Naqvi
will retire on July 4 and
7 respectively
.
In the Lok Sabha, Me-

Lok Jan Shakti Party is
the only Muslim repre-
sentative of the NDA.

man Swati Maliwal.
“The said advertise-
ment shows a boy and a
girl, apparently a cou-
ple sitting on a bed
when four more boys
enter the room. One boy
asks, “Shot mara lagta
hai!”, the boy sitting on
the bed says, “Ha mara
na “. Then the first boy
says “Ab hamari bari”
and moves towards the
girl. The girl appears to
be shocked and uncom-
fortable on the series of
events. Thereafter, the
boy picks up a bottle of
a body spray named
‘Shot’ and the girl looks
visibly relieved as she
just got saved from get-
ting gang raped!”, said
DCW. The Information
and Broadcasting Min-
istry on Saturday or-
dered the suspension of
the controversial deo-
dorant advertisement
and has also initiated
an inquiry as per the
advertising code.
According to DCW,
this advertisement is
clearly promoting sexu-
al violence against
women and girls and
encouraging a rapist
mentality amongst
men. “The advertise-
ment is cringe-worthy,
and should not be al-
lowed to be played on
mass media”, wrote
DCW.
The DCW has regis-
tered an FIR into the
matter and has also
sought detailed action
taken report on the mat-
ter by June 9.
The DCW has also
written to IB Minister
Anurag Thakur about
the controversial adver-
tisement.

‘Vote for Subhash Chandra’:
RajBSP’swhiptoitsturncoats
First India Bureau
Jaipur: The Rajasthan
BSP Saturday issued a
whip asking six MLAs
who had won as BSP
candidates but later
merged with the Con-
gress to vote for only
Independent candidate
Subhash Chandra who
is in the fray for the
June 10 Rajya Sabha
elections.
Issuing the whip, BSP
state president Bhag-
wanSinghBabasaidthe
six MLAs had won their
seats in the 2018 state
polls on BSP symbol and
“are bound to work as
per the party whip”.
“The BSP does not
agree with the policies
of the Congress and the
BJP, and therefore op-
poses their candidates.
The party has issued a
whip directing the
MLAs to vote for the In-
dependent candidate,”
he said, adding appro-
priate action will be
taken if the whip is vio-
lated. The six MLAs are:
Rajendra Gudha,
Lakhan Meena, Deep-
chand Kheria, Sandeep
Yadav, Joginder Awana
and Wajib Ali.
However, legal ex-
perts claim that the
whip does not hold any
authority since iot has
no legal base.

WHY IS
‘SAFFRONISING’ OF
GANGULY NOT A
TRIVIAL MATTER?
Since it is vital for the
BJP to maintain its
presence in Bengal, the
party felt the need to
paint a living Bengali
icon like Sourav Gan-
guly in the ‘deep saf-
fron’ colours. Interest-
ingly, the ‘open chal-
lenge’ thrown by Mama-
ta Banerjee that ‘now
there is ‘no entry’ for
BJP in Bengal is being
taken a bit seriously by
the BJP
. So Ganguly can
prove to be a trump card
for the BJP and word is
that ‘development’ is
afoot. This can be said
from the recent tweet of
the cricketer
in which
h e
has said in gestures, ‘He
is planning to do some-
thing new’. Few days
back when Home Minis-
ter Amit Shah visited
Bengal, Ganguly invited
him over for a meal at
his house. In fact, the
BJP was running be-
hind Ganguly for many
years to join the party,
but Ganguly did not
seem interested then.
However, this time, be-
hind Ganguly’s changed
expressions, his com-
pulsions are more visi-
ble. Ganguly’s tenure as
the President of BCCI
ends on July 27. Before
becoming the President
of BCCI, he was the
President of ‘CAB’ i.e.
Cricket Association of
Bengal, then he
took over the
charge of
BCCI in
2019. Ac-
c o r d -
ing to
the rec-
ommen-
dations
of
the Lodha Committee, a
person will have to take
a mandatory break of
three years after being
president for six con-
secutive years. Ganguly
hasservedasBCCIPres-
identfor3years,butthis
time the BCCI has gone
to court to ‘wave off’ the
‘cooling period’ of 3
years for Ganguly
. The
BCCI says that Ganguly
is such a big name that
he should be seen as an
exception to this rule
and now the matter is
pending in the court. Bi-
har Cricket Association
secretary Aditya Ver-
ma, who took this whole
matter to court,
has also
changed his colours in
support of Ganguly
. He
has also argued in the
court to compromise on
some names. Given his
uncertain future, Gan-
guly has also agreed to
go saffron. And perhaps
Ganguly’s inclusion
will solve the real prob-
lem before BJP, i.e. to
retain its current 18
seats in the 2024 general
elections.
WHY DID NAQVI
HAVE TO LEAVE?
No one can deny the
important role of
Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi
in giving a headline to
the journey of BJP’s
wishes. His media
friendly person-
ality has come
in handy for
BJP many
times, so when
he was not giv-
en the Rajya
Sabha ticket
this time, it be-
came the
m o s t
surprising development
in the party
. 22 seats
were vacant, many such
individualsalsowonthe
RS ‘lottery’ who had no
hope of reaching the
hallowed upper house,
however, Naqvi’s name
was not one of the lucky
leaders, even though he
also ran the minority
ministry in such a way
that the ministry’s spir-
its rose high. Naqvi’s
ambitious project ‘Hu-
nar Haat’ added to the
popularity of the gov-
ernment. Ever since the
Gyanvapi controversy
took hold, the Sangh
and the BJP have tried
to formu-
late a
new
‘Hindu Narrative’ i.e.
Muslim Mukt Party,
Parliament and Govern-
ment. But there is also a
section in the party that
wanted to field Naqvi in
the Rampur by-election.
Rampur has 47 percent
Hindu, 4 percent Sikh
and 49 percent Muslim
voters. Owaisi is also
thinking of fielding his
party’s candidate from
there. If any of Azam
Khan’s wife or son does
not enter the fray, then
they too will knowingly
or unknowingly help
the BJP
. And it will also
be a question of Modi
government’s honour,
so the entire adminis-
tration including CM
Yogi will also be ‘ac-
tive’ there. But even
after this Naqvi
was not fielded
from Rampur,
rather BJP has
fielded Ghanshy-
am Lodhi in his
place. Is this a fare-
well time for the
graceful and
media
friendly Naqvi?
WHERE IS RAHUL?
Away from the
scorching heat of
India, Rahul Gandhi is
abroad, but his wherea-
bouts are unknown. Yes,
he was to appear before
theEDonJune2,buthis
lawyer Abhishek Manu
Singhvi has sought time
of June 13, citing his be-
ing abroad. Here in In-
dia, Rahul’s mother So-
nia and sister Priyanka
have contracted corona,
while party MLAs are
being taken to Chhattis-
garh to avoid cross-vot-
ing in Rajya Sabha elec-
tions, but Rahul Gandhi
is unconcerned about
these things. He is in his
own world and is dedi-
cated to the cause too. In
London, he met Tejash-
wi Yadav and his newly
wed Rajshree. Tejashwi
had also reached Cam-
bridgetospeakonIndia.
As soon as Rahul met
Rajshree, he first
asked her name
and got the answer
- ‘Rajshree’. To this
Rahulquippedsoft-
ly
, “But before mar-
riage, your name
was Rachel?” Ra-
jshree remained
silent while
Tejashwi was
also getting
un-
comfortable. Then Ra-
hul said, “There was no
need for you to change
thenameaftermarriage
ortokeepaHinduname.
Look at my mother, even
before marriage her
name was Sonia, even
now she is Sonia.” Un-
comfortable with this
openness of Rahul,
Tejashwi thought it ap-
propriate to move away
from there immediately
with his wife. After this,
Rahul entered the con-
ference hall with Sitar-
am Yechury, and sat be-
hind Yechury
. After
some time, Rahul said to
Yechury, “I know what
you are thinking right
now?” Yechury wanted
to know what was on Ra-
hul’s mind and asked,
“What?” To this Rahul
quipped, “You are think-
ing that you will go out
of this hall and light a
cigarette.” Hearing this
Yechury couldn’t stop
laughing.

Anushka pepped up for
CHAKDA 'XPRESS
A
ctress Anushka Sharma
has been prepping for
Chakda 'Xpress over the
past few months. On Sat-
urday, Sharma decided to give
fans a sneak peek of what is hap-
pening behind the scenes at the
table ready of Chakda 'Xpress
with a video. The gorgeous star
shared how she was spending
time prepping for her role as Jhu-
lan Goswami in the film. Along
with Anushka, actors like Renuka
Shahane and Mahesh Thakur also
were seen in the video. Taking to
her Instagram handle, Anushka
wrote, Will strive to bring my all
to the table #TableRead #Chak-
daXpress #FilmPrep. All pumped
up for the Jhulan Goswami biop-
ic, Anushka promised to bring
her A-game to the film.
S
hruti Haasan is an avid social me-
dia and often takes her Instagram
as a medium to interact with fans.
Today
, she made us all go aww with
her adorable answer when a fan
asked whom she loves the
most. Well, we bet you to
guess. And it's none other
than her boyfriend Santa-
nu Hazarika. The actress
has revealed that she loves
her beau the most in this
world. How cute right? In a
QnA session with fans, a fan
asked Shruti Haasan, 'whom you
love the most in this world.' The ac-
tress with a smile on her face turned the
camera towards Santanu and showed him.
The couple looks super cute and we just
can't stop replaying the video, pure goals.
M
ajor is a film based on Major Sandeep
Unnikrishnan, who was martyred dur-
ing the 26/11 terror attacks in Mumbai
in 2008. To play the role of Major’s wife
comes with great responsibility
. The role is es-
sayed by the young actor, Saiee Manjrekar and
she has made a credible mark. She is fearless
and she is subtle, she emotes with her eyes and
holds herself throughout the narrative. She
supports and she leads and she does it all with
the grace and panache of a seasoned actor.
Therefore, when Sandeep
Unnikrishnan’s moth-
er heaped praises on
Saiee, it is a mat-
ter of great hon-
our for the lat-
ter.

shoutout to all the
mango lovers.
Whether one is look-
ing for a healthy
breakfast smoothie,
delicious fresh
snacks, mango pre-
serves, pickles or baking a
dessert there is a recipe for
all in this collection.
Mango, the king of fruits,
appears once a year during
summers. It is consumed in
different forms both ripe
and unripe. Ripe sweet
mangoes are either con-
sumed as it is or mango des-
serts are made with them.
Unripe mangoes are used to
make different forms of
pickles in many homes.
They are also utilised to
make recipes such as chut-
ney and beverages. Multi-
ple varieties of Indian man-
goes such as kesar, badami,
dasheri, langda, safeda, to-
tapuri, chausa, neelam and
alphonso, etc are available
in the markets. Here are 10
easy ways to make sum-
mers scrumptious.
MANGO SMOOTHIE
It is a smooth drink made
with a mix of mango, milk,
yoghurt, ice and a little bit
of honey. It is mixed till it
gets smooth and frothy. The
whole process is very simple
and takes five minutes.
MANGO CHIA
PUDDING
Mango can be utilised as a
healthy and quick breakfast
option. Put mango, chia
seeds, milk and maple syrup
in a jar and let it refrigerate
overnight. Chopped mangoes
can be added to it the next
morning.
EGGLESS MANGO
MOUSSE
This dessert requires mango
puree and cream which can
be put in layers in a glass. It
is then refrigerated for
around six hours. The des-
sert is ready to be consumed.
MANGO ICED TEA
Take some black or green tea
bags, water, mango, sugar
and some ice cubes. Blend
mango pieces and water and
place the mixture with sugar

ute. Prepare black tea sepa-
rately and mix them
after they get
