Stressing the impor-
tance of strong, self-re-
liant and a united coun-
try
, Uttar Pradesh Chief
Minister Yogi Adity-
anath said that all the
communities, religions,
sects may differ in their
beliefs and practices,
however, are contribut-

wards the development
of India.
While attending the
‘Jangam Bari’ pro-
gramme in Varanasi on

any Indian tradition
gains recognition glob-

ticular community be-
ing recognised, but it
becomes a matter of
pride for all the 135
crore Indians. India is
home to different sects,
religions and commu-
nities, however, all are
working towards the
development of the
country.” The CM also
referred to Prayagraj
Kumbh that gained rec-
ognition by the UNE-
SCO as India’s intangi-
ble cultural heritage.

BJP BRUTALISING MINORITIES, GLORIFYING
KILLERS OF GANDHIJI: SONIA AT CHINTAN SHIVIR
Aditi Nagar, Yogesh Sharma
and Naresh Sharma
Udaipur: Congress in-
terim president Sonia
Gandhi on Friday
launched a scathing at-
tack on the Narendra
Modi-led BJP govern-
mentattheCentrestating
that the Bharatiya Janata
Party (BJP) wants to keep
people in a “perpetual
state of frenzy” by pro-
voking and instigating”.
Gandhi further went
ahead and targeted PM
Modi’s slogan ‘Maximum
governance, minimum
government’, saying BJP
is viciously targeting and
brutalising the minori-
ties of the country
.
Theremarksof Gandhi
came while addressing a
three-day ‘Nav Sankalp
Chintan Shivir’ in
Udaipur, Sonia said that
wearenotoblivioustothe
failures we have received.
“Nor are we oblivious to
the struggles and difficul-
ties that we have to face.
We are not ignorant of
people’s expectations. We
have gathered to take this
pledge, we will bring our
partyinthepoliticsof the
country in the same role
it has always played, the
role expected by the peo-
ple of the country in this
deterioratingtime.Weare
introspecting.Decidethat
if you leave here, you will
leave inspired with a new
confidence and commit-
ment,” she said.
Urging members of
the party to combat BJP’s
divisiveness, Sonia Gan-
dhi said, “Most Indians
want to live in an atmos-
phere of peace, amity
and harmony
.”
It is “painfully clear” that PM Narendra Modi’s “minimum
government, maximum governance” policy meant keeping
the country in a permanent state of polarisation, roars Sonia

CONGRESS’ POLICIES AND PRINCIPLES
ARE LIKE INDIA’S DNA: GEHLOT
M
eanwhile, prior to Sonia’s address, Rajasthan
Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot said that during
the time of UPA government, care was taken
about people’s opinion
on government. “Today
these people have oc-
cupied the country in the
name of religion. Religion
and caste is such an
issue that you can incite
riots. Now Rajasthan
is number one in their
target. Their people
are clean of any wrong
doings as there is no raid on them. Where did the
country reach in 70 years. The principles and policies
of Congress are like the DNA of the country. They
shamelessly say what did Congress do in 70 years?
Our weakness is that we work but don’t do market-
ing. These are false fraud people, who work less and
indulge in more marketing of their work,” he said.

Lucknow (PTI): Him-
achal Pradesh Gover-
nor Rajendra Vishwa-
nath Arlekar on Friday
visited the famous Gita
Press in Gorakhpur.
Arlekar said the
press has been spread-
ing the fragrance of
spirituality all over the
country and world.
Gita Press has spread
the fragrance (of spiri-
tuality) in the world
and country and due to
the press, the books
which were once rare
are readily available,”
he said.
In the visitors’ book,
Governor Arlekar
wrote that Gita Press,
Gorakhpur is going to
celebrate the centenary
year of its working pe-
riod and it has played a
vital role in spreading
culture and national-
ism. It is inspiring for
the country
.
Gita Press trustees
Devidayal Agarwal and
Baijnath honoured the
governor by offering
him a shawl and Gita ki
Tika ‘Sadhak Sanjivni’
in Marathi language.
Other senior members
of the press were also
present at the occasion.
Located in Gorakhpur
city in eastern Uttar
Pradesh, Gita Press is
known to be the world’s
largest publisher of
Hindu religious texts.
Founded in April 1923
by Shri Jaydayalji Go-
endka, the press strives
to meet the aim of its
founder to spread the
knowledge emanating
from the Gita.
Striving at spreading
“Sanatan literature” at
the minimum possible
cost, Gita Press sells its
publications at a price
lower than their input
costs and it does it with-
out accepting any con-
tribution from any
source, the Press says
on its portal.
Till March 2021, it
had published 71.77
crore books, including
15.58 crore copies of
Gita and 11.39 crore cop-
ies of Ramcharitmanas
and Tulsi literature,
and 261 lakh copies of
Purans and Upnishads.
This institution is the
very image of the di-
vine resolve which
worked as the motivat-
ing force for its estab-
lishment.
Gita Press was estab-
lished in 1923 in order
to serve humanity for
truth, love and peace
and has been promoting
spiritulity since then.

PREPS BEGIN FOR GLOBAL INVESTORS SUMMIT
First India Bureau
Lucknow: Prepara-
tions have begun for
hosting the Global In-
vestors Summit in Ut-
tar Pradesh, which will
pave way for the state to
realise Chief Minister
Yogi Adityanath’s re-
solve of making it a one
trillion dollar economy
.
The state will also
hold national and inter-
national road shows in
the next two years and
three ground breaking
celebrations over the
next five years to boost
investment in the state,
said a press release on
Friday
.
In the last five years,
Chief Minister Yogi Ad-
ityanath has imple-
mented about two doz-
en policies while sim-
plifying procedures in
order to make the state
an investment hub.
The CM’s indus-
try-friendly move at-
tracted not only nation-
al but also internation-
al companies to invest
in Uttar Pradesh.
The Department of
Industries has received
investment proposals
worth Rs 20,559 crore
from 10 countries in-
cluding Singapore, US,
Japan, UK, Canada,
Germany and South Ko-
rea to invest in Uttar
Pradesh, a state that is
rich in human resource.
Land has also been
allotted by the depart-
ment to 39 projects,
which have the poten-
tial to provide employ-
ment to 36,000 people.
It is worth mention-
ing here that the UP
Government had re-
ceived investment pro-
posals worth Rs 4.28
lakh crore at the Inves-
tors Summit held in
Yogi 1.0 of which proj-
ects worth up to Rs 3
lakh crore have already
got off the ground. Be-
sides, in GBC-III, proj-
ects worth more than
Rs 70,000 crore will be
launched. As many bas
802 projects worth Rs
1.70 lakh crore are in
various stages of imple-
mentation whereas
commercial production
has started in 232 proj-
ects worth Rs 57,186
crore. The projects have
provided employment
to a total of 1.40 lakh
people.
With significant in-
crease in the number of
investors in almost ev-
ery sector, the impact of
Yogi Government’s ini-
tiative to transform UP-
into a producer state
from a consumer state
is visible today
.
Production is likely
to start soon in 570 proj-
ects worth Rs 112,513
crore in UP, including
149 projects worth Rs
47,484 crore and 421
projects worth Rs 65,029
crore. Th projects are
expected to offer em-
ployment to 12.30 lakh
people.
Negligence won’t be
tolerated: CM Yogi
Yogi has recently di-
rected officials to en-
sure hassle-free invest-
ment environment in
the state and timely al-
lotment of land and
NOC to investors. He
has warned against any
negligence and incon-
cerned departments to
conduct regular re-
views of work being
done in this regard.

Govt to strengthen
PRD teams for better
law order in villages
First India Bureau
Lucknow: The Uttar
Pradesh Government
has decided to revital-
ise the Provincial
Guard Team known as
Provincial Rakshak Dal
(PRD) to ensure com-
munal peace and har-
mony as well as to pre-
vent crime in rural ar-
eas of the state.
The Government has
announced that it
would not only give
more facilities and in-
crease daily allowances
of the jawans of the
team, but also strength-
en the team by induct-
ing more youths into it
and giving them more
responsibilities than
they are currently
handling.
The Provincial Rak-
shak Dal, which was
formed in the year 1947,
aims at strengthening
the youth movement in
rural areas to groom a
disciplined, self-reliant
and responsible young-
er generation.
It is worth mentioning
here that CM Yogi has
time and again reiterat-
ed his Government’s
determination to
strengthen the PRD and
Mangal Dal. At present,
the total number of
trained PRD jawans
across all the districts
of the state is 43,835 of
which 30,004 are cur-
rently active. Of the
30,004 active jawans,
28,054 are males and
1950 females.
The PRD personnels’
daily allowance was
earlier increased from
Rs 375 to Rs 395 and the
Government plants to
increase it further. The
details of a total of
31,294 jawans and infor-
mation related to pay-
ment of allowances to
them as well as their
district-wise duties are
available on the depart-
ment’s website.
According to the de-
partmental action plan,
20,000 PRD personnel
will be put on duty ev-
ery month in the next
100 days.

VACANT POSTS OF LECTURERS WILL
BE FILLED BY AUGUST THIS YEAR
First India Bureau
Lucknow: The Uttar
Pradesh government
has said that the va-
cant posts of teachers
in government col-
leges would be filled
up by August this year.
“Written examination
has been completed
for 2002 vacant posts
in government col-
leges and the selection
process will be com-
pleted by August,”
said a government
spokesperson.
The stat govern-
ment has appointed
766 lecturers in vari-
ous colleges between
2017 to 2022, he said
adding that the Yogi
has undertaken com-
prehensive reforms in
higher education and
has made record ap-
pointments of lectur-
ers in the last five
years in private and
government colleges.
At the same time, the
appointment of prin-
cipals in aided col-
leges has been done
after 14 years and in
five years, 290 princi-
pals were selected.
The Yogi govern-
ment, which is run-
ning on the policy of
zero tolerance on cor-
ruption, has appoint-
ed maximum degree
teachers in the last
five years through a
transparent selection
process.
Making a compara-
tive assessment, the
spokesperson said 557
lecturers were select-
ed by the SP govern-
ment (2012-2017) and
487 by the Mayawati
government. From
2003 to 2007, only 147
were selected.
The Yogi government
has also appointed re-
cord teachers in
non-government (aid-
ed) colleges, which is
more than three times
the number of ap-
pointments made
during the tenure of
the SP-BSP govern-
ment. In the last five
years, 2802 lecturers
were selected, while in
Akhilesh Yadav (2012
to 2017) this number
was zero as not a sin-
gle teacher was
appointed.

Lucknow: With sing-

in all Madarsas in UP,
All India Majlis-e-Itte-
hadul Muslieen presi-
dent Asaduddin Owaisi
said the CM Yogi Adi
and the BJP need not
give the certification of
patriotism to the Mus-
lim community
.
Pointing out that
Muslim community had
participated with shoul-
der-to-shoulder during
freedom struggle and
Madarsas had played
significant role in fight
against British, Owaisi
said there was no
“Sangh Parivar” then.
“On August 15 and Jan-
uary 26, all madrassas
talk about patriotism.
In madrassas, love for
the country is being
taught. You look at them
with suspicion, that’s
why you are making
such laws,” Owaisi said.
So far, these institu-
tions were singing
“Hamd” and “Salam”
before the start of the
classes. However, the
govt, while issuing
“must do” order, has not
prioritize which one
wouldbesungfirst.This
could create sequence
problem in its imple-
mentation.

ALLAHABAD HIGH
COURT GIVES
PIL ON TAJ THE
TREATMENT IT
DESERVED
he Lucknow Bench
of Allahabad High
Court threw out a pe-
tition unlocking 22
sealed rooms of Taj
Mahal and used strong words to
discourage such frivolous pub-
lic interest litigation in the fu-
ture. Justices DK Upadhyay and
Subhash Vidyarthi wasted no
time in junking the petition
with the observation, “Tomor-
row you will ask for permission
to see our chambers. Please,
don’t make a mockery of the PIL
system.”
Certain forces have been mak-
ing sustained efforts to prove
that Taj Mahal is a temple of
Shiva and call it Tejo Mahalay
and snip its Mughal past. The
recent PIL “to find the truth be-
hind” the locked rooms was one
such attempt. Fortunately, the
high court sharply advised the
petitioner to “do some research
first...do MA, PhD, enroll your-
self somewhere. Don’t make a
mockery of this”.
It is tragic that a set of people
is seeking the conversion of a
mausoleum to a temple. Global-
ly, these moves are viewed as
retrograde and polarizing.
T
aking a strong
pitch to revitalise
the Congress, par-
ty President Sonia
Gandhi’s impor-
tant message to the partici-
pants at the Nav Chintan Shi-
vir was to speak freely and
frankly here, but “let only
one message go outside” as
the Congress leader remind-
ed members that it was time
for them to pay back the debt
which they owe to the party.
A better part of Sonia Gan-
dhi’s speech was targeted to-
wards the BJP and Prime
Minister Narendra Modi for
brutalising minorities, “sub-
jugation of institutions and
reinventing history”. Polari-
sation, as Sonia Gandhi said,
has indeed driven minorities
to live in fear.
The party President is So-
nia fully aware of the issues
dogging the party and hinted
about them in her speech.
“Changes in organisation are
the need of the hour, we need
to change the way of our
working,” she said, urging
participants to keep the or-
ganisation above personal
ambitions. It was an obvious
reference to the G23 group of
dissenters who are seeking a
non-Gandhi as the party
leader. They are also demand-
ing “open elections” to the
Congress Working Commit-
tee. This group will be keenly
watching the development.
The brainstorming comes
after a failed attempt to get
poll strategist Prashant
Kishore on board. It is the re-
vival of the Congress and en-
suring unity at all levels is
whatthepartyleadershipwill
be focusing on. Her emphasis
on “meaningful self-intro-
spection” is important as the
party will have to prepare for
upcomingassemblyelections.
AmbitiousCongressleaders
would do well to heed Sonia
Gandhi’s advice and put up a
joint front to take on the BJP
.

M
esearches have shown that an
average Indian is spending
approximately 5 hours online
everyday
, out of which 30% of
the times they are uploading
content. This fact emphasizes
the era of Web 2.0 where com-
panies (mostly social media
apps) develop and provide
products and services in a
centralized manner.
Google provides content
based on your geography,
which is a testimony to its
design and the fact that they
track everything. Hope you
don’t believe that you own
your IG content! It might be
shocking to you that Face-
book owns everything on the
platform, and they have com-
plete control of all the con-
tent there. So if they want to
ban you or block you, they
will do it instantly
. Moreover,
no Gamer worldwide owns
their in-game assets!
The clash between owner-
ship rights has been going on
for a decade, and the Netflix
documentary “The Social Di-
lemma” highlighted this
very well. Hence the birth of
new alternatives: Web3
which is more democratic,
where the internet or virtual
worlds merge and integrate
into our lives empowering us
to interact seamlessly
.
In my opinion, Web 3.0 is a
concept for the next genera-
tion of the internet. Evolving
users are able to control, own
and monetise their online
content, digital assets and
identities. Their creativity
will have no bounds and con-
nect no limits.
I’m sure you’ve heard of
Bitcoin! It was introduced in
2008 and designed as a pio-
neer in decentralized crypto-
currency and digital payment
system without the need for
central banks or trusted in-
termediaries. All transac-
tions were based on the
Blockchain technology that
was introduced in a white pa-
per as the digital ledger for
managing and certifying the
validity of bitcoin.
Blockchain technology has
enabled users to interact with
online services governed by
peer-to-peer networks. Which
essentially means a decen-
tralized network of comput-
ers instead of the server of a
single entity. In such a set-
ting, users can own their data
and have permissionless
transactions without any in-
terference, along with the full
control of digital identities
and how and when data is
shared or returned to users
through their private keys.
Over the years blockchain
has transcended its original
objectives, and has evolved in
two major directions. On one
hand it continues to focus on
blockchain as the underlying
platform for bitcoin, thereby
becoming a platform for the
large number of cryptocur-
rencies, digital tokens and on
the other hand, it is focused
on the use of blockchain as a
trusted distributed data base
for private and public sector
applications involving multi-
ple institutions, such as sup-
ply chains, financial services
and healthcare.
Over the past few years,
Web 3.0 has been given a
number of delphian descrip-
tions, ranging from ‘the new
age of the internet’ and ‘the
semantic web’. It has left eve-
ryone bewildered and con-
fused to wonder what exactly
is it and how will it work?
Why should business leaders
be thinking about it now?
Let’s take a look at the time-
lines…Web1 was the original
Internet and the World Wide
Web of the 1990s and early
2000s.Itwasprimarilyfocused
on publishing and accessing
information on web pages us-
ing open protocols like HTTP
.
Soon after came Web2 in 2005,
itdefinedthenextphaseof the
Internetbygivingitsusersthe
ability to create and publish
their own content through
blogs, personal websites and
social media platforms like
YouTube,Facebook,andTwit-
ter. However, most of this ac-
tivity became dominated and
monetized by a small number
of global companies.
There are various views
floating around on what Web3
is all about! Some critics view
it as a hype, a rebranding ef-
fort to shed some of the cul-
tural and political baggage of
crypto. And others believe
that it is a dystopian vision of
a pay-to-play internet, in
which every activity and so-
cial interaction will become a
financial instrument - to be
bought and sold. A freedom
that no one has seen before
and will democratize the
whole mindset of using the
Internet. A blockchain based
network that will usher in a
more open, entrepreneurial
Internet and a middleman
free digital economy
.
I think Web3 is here to stay
andwiththepowerof earning
your own dime without any
regulation will make it more
popular over time. So either
we can embrace the change or
be obsolete, there are enough
case studies to prove on how
Web3 will soon be a signifi-
cantcomponentof ouroverall
digital strategy
. Regardless of
the industries, organisations
will have to adapt most effi-
ciently to remain competitive
and profitable.

Moni Sharma
New Delhi: In his pres-
entation to the Con-
gress party, election
strategist Prashant
Kishor had remained
silent on the issue of
presenting a leader or
face from the opposi-
tion. His emphasis was
on the fact that the op-
position should create
a narrative and keep
that narrative running
continuously. By doing
this, even without a
face, BJP and Narendra
Modi can be chal-
lenged. This part of his
advice is right that the
opposition should cre-
ate a narrative and
keep it running, but af-
ter that the face will be
formed automatically,
this aspect doesnt seem
to be right. Along with
making the narrative,
the opposition and es-
pecially the Congress
will also have to pre-
sent a face. That is why
the Chintan Shivir of
Udaipur is important,
in which the Congress
party declares Rahul
Gandhi as the leader.
Anyway, whether
Congress declares it or
not, BJP has made Nar-
endra Modi fight
against Rahul Gandhi.
That’s when in every
poll or in every debate,
Rahul is projected
against Modi. Whenev-
er there is a survey on
the functioning of the
Modi government or a
survey of the populari-
ty of leaders, only Ra-
hul is kept in compari-
son to Modi. Propagan-
da is made by the BJP
that as long as Rahul is
there, Modi wont face
any difficulty. In social
media, jokes are circu-
lated stressing Rahul to
be the biggest asset for
the BJP.
Right now BJP has
chosen Rahul Gandhi
knowing him to be a
weak wrestler from
Congress’ side. Now is
the time for Congress
to go ahead and chal-
lenge on its own behalf
and announce the con-
test between Rahul and
Modi. Remember how
Narendra Modi fought
and got his name
stamped from BJP?
Udaipur’s Chintan Shi-
vir is a Goa moment for
Congress and Rahul.
Just as Narendra Modi
became the President
of BJP’s election cam-
paign committee in
2013 Goa session de-
spite opposition from
LK Advani and other
leaders of his camp
and then became the
prime ministerial can-
didate, so the Congress
needs Rahul Gandhi to
be the party president
and declare him to be
the prime ministerial
candidate.
Rahul Gandhi keeps
saying that he does not
want power, but it will
not help the Congress.
It will be good for the
Congress when they
walk their side and
challenge. The BJP has
already made him a
contender, so there is
no problem in becom-
ing a claimant from
Congress’ side. If there
is courage, commit-
ment to its agenda, con-
fidence in the strength
of the organization,
then Congress should
announce Rahul as
their leader in the par-
ty and contest election
under him as the PM
candidate. Modi had
the courage to get his
name announced, con-
test the election and is
ruling today. Rahul and
Congress also have to
show the same courage.
CONGRESS NEEDS TO HOLD THE BULL BY THE HORNS!
An ‘aggressive’ Fadnavis emerging as New Delhi’s ‘point man’ in Mumbai
Renni Abraham
Mumbai: With the
fast-changing political
scenario in Maharash-
tra, especially in Mum-
bai, over the last couple
of months, a fresh
lease of life was given
to “silent performer”
and former Chief Min-
ister Devendra Fad-
navis who, for the first
two years since the fall
of his government,
maintained an ex-
tremely low profile de-
spite being the leader
of the opposition in the
state legislative assem-
bly
.
According to sourc-
es, amid the ongoing
BJP-Shiv Sena-NCP
political war, Fadnavis
has suddenly emerged
as New Delhi’s “point
man” in Mumbai to
take on the saffron par-
ty’s political oppo-
nents, “by hook or by
crook”, and was re-
cently advised by the
party high command
to “perform or perish”.
With the growing num-
ber of CBI, ED and In-
come-Taxcasesagainst
leaders of the Shiv
Sena, NCP and Con-
gress, it is believed in
relevant circles that
there is a “hidden and
discreet” role played
by Fadnavis as “princi-
pal informer” also
working as a “friend,
philosopher and
guide” to central intel-
ligence agencies.
Fadnavis, as Maha-
rashtra CM for five
years, is reportedly in
possession of highly
sensitive documents
and tapes which can
put quite a few senior
Sena, NCP and Con-
gress leaders in a tight
spot. There is a general
feeling in the opposi-
tion that Fadnavis is
working as the “coor-
dinator” for central
revenue intelligence
agencies having thor-
oughly done his
“homework”, in addi-
tion to having gener-
ated his own “data
bank” to nail political
opponents.
This was in fact one
of the aspects on
which he was grudged
by his party high com-
mand: for not exploit-
ing the sharp intelli-
gence gleaned from the
home department
which was under his
charge to neutralise
political opponents in
Maharashtra. Fad-
navis chose to main-
tain good political
equations and a steady
boat instead of going
after his political ri-
vals outside the BJP.
In one particular
case, when Fadnavis
was asked by the media
how he was in posses-
sion of a “secret tape”
related to phone tap-
ping, he “innocently”
replied that the con-
cerned video, and au-
diotapes were received
by him on his mobile
through Whatsapp,
while some were sent to
him by post. All these
“developments” have
virtually forced the
Mumbai business and
corporate world to ac-
cord an equivalent sta-
tus, importance and
recognition to Fad-
navis on par with Ud-
dhav.
The reasons are very
clear: Most business
bigwigs are suitably
“concerned” about the
operations of the ED,
I-T department and
CBI and, at this stage,
believe that any “com-
munication gap” with
the former BJP CM
can prove fatal to their
business interests. All
said and done, despite
clarifications and con-
tradictions made by
Fadnavis, almost eve-
ryone in India’s finan-
cial capital now be-
lieves that there is
close coordination and
understanding be-
tween the central agen-
cies and the BJP in
Maharashtra, which is
closely monitored and
supervised by the pow-
erful and strong ‘Num-
ber Two’ in Delhi.
According to politi-
cal observers, by now
Union Home Minister
and master strategist
Amit Shah has as-
sumed complete com-
mand and control of
all “developments” in
Maharashtra and it is
likely that he may
spring a major politi-
cal surprise in the
coming months to vir-
tually compel Uddhav
to enter into a “power-
sharing compromise”
with the BJP once
again, with Fadnavis
back at the helm as
Chief Minister of Ma-
harashtra.
In Mumbai’s business world,
Fadnavis’s ‘say’ is no less than
CM Uddhav Thackeray’s
Congress chief Sonia Gandhi with party leader Rahul Gandhi.
Srinagar (Agencies):
Jammu and Kashmir
police used tear-gas
shells and mild lathi-
charge to foil the pro-
test of dozen of Kash-
miri Pandits at Sheikh-
pora, Budgam, who
were marching to-
wards Srinagar Inter-
national Airport.
There are nearly
1,500 Kashmiri Pandits
living in government
constructed flats at
Sheikhpora in Budgam
district besides other
clusters in various dis-
tricts across Kashmir.
Chunni Lal Bhat,
head of the Mandir
committee at Sheikh-
pora said, the local ad-
ministration, particu-
larly deputy commis-
sioner Budgam Shah-
baz Ahmad Mirza, is
not paying attention to-
wards the problems of
the KPs who have re-
turned from Jammu
and other parts of the
country to stay back in
their mother land.
“There are hundreds
of government employ-
ees who got jobs under
PM package putting up
in government flats at
Sheikhpora in Bud-
gam. The migrant offi-
cials should have been
posted at the headquar-
ters particularly in-
side deputy commis-
sioner’s office which is

pared other far flung
areas like Khan sahib
and other villages,”
Chunni Lal said.
He said, unfortu-
nately the terror vic-
tim Rahul Bhat was
recently shifted from
deputy commissioner’s
office to Tehsil office at
Chadoora by the DC
Shahbaz Ahmad Mirza
even though he had
pleaded for his stay in
the DC’s office.

ta dispute broke out be-
tween the two countries

new map showing parts
of India in its territory

KILLING 2 BIRDS
WITH 1 STONE
By showing the door to the
State’s top cop, DGP Mukul
Goel, codename: Rocket, chief
minister Yogi Adityanath seems
to have killed two birds with
one stone. It is well-known in
the State’s power corridors that
Goel was the Centre’s choice
for the top job 11 months ago.
But by shunting him
unceremoniously, Yogi has
shown he means business on
his perform or perish
approach, no matter how
politically well-heeled one may
be. Consequently, apart from
sending a message down the
line to the men in uniform to
pull up their socks on his
zero-tolerance for crime
approach, the UP CM has also
made it clear as to who will call
the shots in appointments of
officers for key posts,
henceforth. This also sends a
clear signal to good and
competent officers awaiting
their turn for the top slot in the
State that days of ‘para-
dropping’ civil servants from
other States are also over
unless, of course, Adityanath
himself picks one. As for Goel,
he still has two years to go
before hanging up his boots.
Whether he will spend that time
here on a nondescript posting
or look for options outside the
State, only time will tell.

ing darshan at Kedar-
nath Temple after a

that more than 20,000
devotees are visiting
the temple daily and
due to the pilgrims’
rush places such as Son-

tions, are keeping a
close eye on the move-
ment of the yatris, he
said. “It’s been a week
since the portals of the
temple were opened on
May 6, 2022, and more
than 1,30,000 pilgrims
have so far visited the
Kedarnath Temple,”
Pandey added. The
ITBP has also alerted

Lucknow: After BSP’s
drubbing in UP assem-
bly polls, Mayawati has
been toiling to devise
an effective strategy for
the revival of her party
.
Along with the over-
hauling of the organi-
zation, the BSP chief is
focusing exclusively on
the Dalit-Muslim vote-
base. Azam Khan’s sup-
port on social media is
considered as a part of
Mayawati’s well
thought out strategy.
For the past decade,
the graph of BSP’s elec-
toral performance has
taken the shape of a
downward trajectory
. In
the 2014 general elec-
tions, it could not win a
single seat. In the 2019
general elections, de-
spite the alliance with
the SP, the party’s vote
share did not increase
but it got five seats. In
the year 2017 assembly
polls, Mayawati’s party
got 19 seats with 22.24
percent vote share. In
the recent elections, the
performance of BSP
has reached its worst
level since 1993. With
the victory in just one
seat, its vote share came
down to around thir-
teen percent. After the
results, Mayawati
blamed shifting of Mus-
lim voters to the SP for
such dismal perfor-
mance. Now, from the
Rajya Sabha to the Leg-
islative Council of the
state, there is a serious
crisis of maintaining
representation for the
BSP. Political experts
believe that the BSP
chief is doing damage
control exercises in
such odd circumstanc-
es. Under which the
party organization is
being revamped, the
work is going on for the
return of the leaders
who have left the party
.
At the same time, spe-
cial attention is being
paid to the Dalit-Muslim
combination to increase
vote share. In this con-
nection, Shah Alam ali-
as Guddu Jamali, who
left the BSP and contest-
ed from Owaisi’s party
duringtheelections,has
returned to the party
. He
has also been declared
as the BSP candidate for
the by-election to Azam-
garh parliamentary
seat. Munkad Ali has
been given the responsi-
bility of Chief Coordi-
nator. Despite all these
effortss, the party lacks
a prominent Muslim
face. Since Azam un-
doubtedly has a signifi-
cant influence among
the Muslim community
in western UP. BSP
strategists are assessing
that if this political
stalwart,whose anger
towards SP Chief is
clearly reflected, joins
their party, then the
electoral equations
can be balanced in their
favor.
This view point is
evident from the fact
that Mayawati, who
had criticized Azam for
his derogatory remark
against BJP MP Rama-
devi 3 years ago, has
now come out in for-
mer’s support.
Mayawati’s attempt to
target BJP in support
of Azam Khan through
a series of tweets is be-
ing judged a big game
plan for the future.

ences (AIIMS) here in

monial site, where he
introduced himself as
a bachelor and an or-
phan. He convinced her

gineering and MBA,

ning a business. On the

edly borrowed Rs 15

SHRUTI PAREEK, AN ALL-ROUNDER
HAILING FROM RAJASTHAN, IS
TAKING THE FASHION WORLD BY STORM,
WITH HER STRIKING LOOKS AMAZING
PERSONALITY. CITY FIRST CAUGHT UP
WITH HER TO ASK A LITTLE MORE
ABOUT HER JOURNEY!
hruti Pareek, a
r u l e - b re a ke r,
fashion lumi-
nary, and eternal
icon of the su-
permodels be-
lieves in following her
heart and passion and
has imposed her majestic
beauty on the catwalks of
a lot of fashion houses, as
well as participated in
the Queen of Cosmos
beauty pageant held re-
cently, with a gentle
strength.
When asked about her-
self, the beauty began by
saying, “As an explorer
and dauntless follower of
my heart, I always stay
happy and satiate. I’m a
medical student and en-
joy dancing a lot. Apart
from this, I’m a black belt
holder in Taekwondo.
Having such a vast expe-
rience, I can affirmative-
ly say that this has helped
my confidence grow to a
huge extent. As a girl my-
self, I focus on teaching
young girls how to defend
themselves.”
She further added,
“My journey began as an
underconfident anxious
girl who was so afraid of
stepping out. Earlier as a
kid, I was even bullied
for being physically
weak. But I did not stop
there, I decided to be-
come the best version of
myself. I fought a war
with my low self-es-
teem and believed
in myself which
made me a part
of such a pres-
tigious pag-
eant. I may
not have
won the queen
of Cosmos Pageant
but I’m already a win-
ner who came so far
fighting with the anxiety
issues.
On her achievements,
the young diva said, “I
am a NSO gold medallist,
Taekwondo gold medal-
list ( district, state), na-
tional-level player and
have bagged the Miss
India Glam RU also.
When asked about the
challenges faced during
her career, Pareek re-
plied, “When I came
up with the dream of
being a taekwondo
player I often received
statements like “ladki
ko ye sab shobha nhi
deta”, but I believed in
myself and my dreams
and I finally made it to
the Nationals.
When asked how she’d
like to see herself a few
years down the line,
Shruti said, “I see
myself to be a
confident wom-
an of substance
just like my mom,
who is an ideal ex-
ample for me.”
When asked about
what message she’d like
to give to the coming
generation, the beauty
said, “For me it’s always
about the confidence you
carry.
Failures are stepping
stones to success. One
should believe in them-
selves and never be both-
ered about what the soci-
ety says, be the better
version of yourself, fight
for your rights and win
one day at a time.”
