New Delhi, April 26, 2024:

Among the seven Lok Sabha seats in Delhi, the North West Delhi seat is quite significant; it is the lone Lok Sabha seat in Delhi which is reserved for Scheduled Castes. This Lok Sabha constituency came into existence in 2008. Congress candidate Dr. Udit Raj has been victorious from this seat earlier and is receiving substantial public support this time as well. On Friday, Swami Nityanand, also known as Mahendra Shastri, the National Secretary of the World Council of Arya Samaj and spokesperson of the United Farmers Front, announced his support. Not only will he campaign for Dr. Udit Raj while residing in the North West Delhi Lok Sabha constituency, but he has also decided to campaign in support of Dr. Udit Raj until the end of the elections.

Supporting Dr. Udit Raj, Swami Nityanand said, “Rahul Gandhi is fighting for the rights of 95% of the population of the country, including the common people, marginalized, and poor. We need to fight together and also succeed.” He said, “In the last 10 years, the BJP has not only deprived the rights of the poor, middle class, traders, small shopkeepers, women, youth, farmers, and laborers but has also distressed the public with record-breaking unemployment and historic inflation. The government has only worked for the interests of the capitalists. Therefore, there is a need to fight together now.”

It should be noted that the North West Lok Sabha seat includes 10 assembly constituencies. These assembly constituencies include Narela, Badli, Rithala, Bawana, Mundka, Kirari, Sultanpur Majra, Nangloi Jat, Mangolpuri, and Rohini.

ELECTORAL BONDS

Electoral Bonds Saga Unfolds as SBI Reveals Buyer and Beneficiary Details

The Electoral Bonds data of buyers and beneficiaries will be available on the election commission’s website by 5 p.m. on 15th March

New Delhi, 13 March 2024

In compliance with the stringent order from the Supreme Court given on Monday, the State Bank of India (SBI) has given the Election Commission of India (ECI) access to the Election Bonds data on Tuesday. The Election Commission has received the detailed information from the State Bank of India (SBI) on the buyers and beneficiaries of the now-cancelled electoral bonds. The data will be available on the Election Commission’s website by 5p.m. on March 15. The bank’s chairman and managing director, however, have failed to turn in the affidavit attesting to their adherence to the court’s directive.

SBI has issued electoral bonds totalling an astounding Rs.16, 518 crore in 30 different issuances since the scheme’s launch in 2018. The government’s electoral bonds program, which allowed for anonymous political contributions, was abolished by the Supreme Court on February 15 in a landmark ruling that was deemed “unconstitutional.” Additionally, the Election Commission was ordered by the court to provide the names of contributors, the amounts they gave, and the recipients of their contributions.

The State Bank of India had earlier appealed for an extension until June 30 to provide these facts, which was rejected by the Supreme Court directing the bank to provide the Election Commission with all relevant data by Tuesday.

New Delhi, March 11, 2024:

On the occasion of International Women’s Day, a ceremony was held at the Constitution Club of Delhi to honor women who have made significant contributions in their respective fields. Supreme Court Justice Gyan Sudha Mishra, a former judge of the Supreme Court of India, chaired a felicitation ceremony and symposium on women’s empowerment in advancing India. Lubbna Asif, National President-All India Minority Front, introduced guests and highlighted the achievements of women at various levels in the country. Among the attendees were Her Excellency Jenish Darbari, Consul General of the Republic of Montenegro in India, former Member of Parliament Anita Arya, Dronacharya Award-winning national kabaddi coach Padma Shri Sunil Dabas, and Himangi Sakhi, among others.

On the occasion, Lubna Asif was presented first copy of the book based on the life of Jagdishwar Nigam (IAS) titled , “The Real Story of the Administrator – (Jagdishwar Nigam IAS) Versus the British Rule on August 19, 1942,” by H.E.Dr. Janice Darbari , Honorary Counsel General of Montenegro in India.

The program was organized by Social Welfare Society Chairman Abhishek Mishra, Lubna Asif, President of All India Minority Front, Drishti Gupta, were among the organizers who attended the program and praised its success.

The committee organized a beautiful program on the occasion of International Women’s Day, where women from all sectors were present. A spectrum was prepared for women that made it seem like a celebration was being held at the Constitution Club’s auditorium. The committee selected women who had achieved special positions in their respective fields for recognition and honored them with awards. The awardees included Mrs. Parul Garg, Dr. Mehrun Nisa, Ms. Kalpana Jha, Deepti Ray, Sundar Ray, Akriti Singh, Alka June, Pallavi Mishra, Ruhi Bhati, Sonia Datt, Rita Singh, Manjari Jha, Himani Varma, Sangita Chanu, Charu Sharma, and Vibha Chintale among water women.

On the occasion, women speakers said that although they are considered half the world, they are actually the whole world. They said that they have achieved many successes and have reached the pinnacle in various fields. The reservation of 33% for women in Parliament has raised hopes and great expectations. The progress of women will continue in this way. They take on tasks with great skill and now women in the field of sports are achieving new heights for India. This is a matter of satisfaction for us.

Justice Mishra said that efforts must continue to change society’s mindset so that a sense of equality is fostered at the mental level throughout society. Speakers in the program praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s excellent contribution to the advancement of women. A speaker said that formerly Mrs. Indira Gandhi was our inspiration, and now Prime Minister Narendra Modi has become a source of inspiration. He is bringing various plans for the upliftment of women, and due to this, the status of women has improved. If this process continues, we will soon stand on the pedestal of equality.

The seminar did not see the mentality of ‘Walk Alone’ and did not deny the contribution of men; rather, it was said that women and men are two tracks like the rails of a railway track, and if the train is to be run, both have to remain parallel in the same direction. This is happening. Women who deliver religious sermons and other devotees said that in the field of religion, they are not lagging behind anyone. The number of listeners and viewers is in the millions. This means their dominance is increasing in every field. This is the achievement of International Women’s Day and the country.

Women insulted again at MP Rakesh Singh’s rally, playing dirty politics amid lack of support from people

Aaj Tak underlines lack of support for MP Rakesh Singh at West Jabalpur seat

Jabalpur, 9th November, 2023 :

In one of its reports on Thursday, famous TV channel Aaj Tak underlined that MP Rakesh Singh will be facing difficulties in winning the upcoming elections. Following that, last night, BJP candidates arrived in Hathital for campaigning and were disheartened when they saw empty chairs. To salvage their dignity, they hastily gathered a crowd from other wards, which led to a clash with the residents of Hathital, who began speaking ill due to not supporting Rakesh Singh. This caused a conflict between the residents and BJP workers. It is said that during this altercation, BJP leader Anju Bhargav used derogatory words against the local women, which forced the police to intervene.

Just a few days ago, during Rakesh Singh’s campaign, there was an incident of assault on a woman. Rakesh Singh is not receiving the expected public support, neither on the ground nor on social media. As a result, tensions are rising, and wherever he goes, controversies seem to follow.

To suppress this incident, the entire BJP machinery is claiming a conspiracy by the opposition. However, one thing is clear: Rakesh’s politics is at stake, and he is determined to win by any means necessary, even if it requires taking extreme measures.
