Cooch Behar (West Bengal): While the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra made its way into Bengal, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi struck a conciliatory pose, declaring that the INDIA bloc would fight 'Anyay' together. The remarks were made the day after Mamata Banerjee, a prominent member of the opposition, declared that she would run her state's Lok Sabha elections alone. The Wayanad Member of Parliament expressed his happiness at visiting West Bengal. "I'm glad I travelled to West Bengal. We've come here to hear you out and support you.Injustice, violence, and hatred are being promoted by the BJP-RSS. Thus, INDIA formation will battle 'Anyay' collectively," he declared. Jairam Ramesh also struck a conciliatory note, restating Mamata's significance as a constituent of the INDIA bloc."As I mentioned earlier, TMC is a crucial pillar of the 28-party INDIA bloc. Mamata Banerjee is a tall leader of the nation, full of energy and expertise. We honour her.It is common knowledge that she occupies a unique position and identity within our nation's politics. We both want to beat the BJP, and I have every confidence that she does too. Together, we shall fight. We shall ensure the success of INDIA Alliance. That is our responsibility.

My Govt Took Country Out Of Darkness Staring At Youngsters: PM Modi

NEW DELHI, Jan 25: The nation was brought out of darkness ten or twelve years ago, according to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who made this claim on Thursday when informing young people that their votes will determine India's future course and strategy. In a virtual speech to young voters hosted by the ruling BJP's youth wing, he stated that it is their duty to ensure that the nation develops over the next 25 years in the same manner that the younger generation did for its independence 25 years prior to Independence. Taking a jab at the opposition parties, Modi stated that the younger generation rejects nepotism and corruption, adding that family-run parties never let other young people succeed."These parties' leaders have an anti-youth mentality. With the might of your votes, you must defeat these family parties," he declared. He claimed that things had changed from the conditions that existed in the nation ten or twelve years ago, which had cast doubt on young people's futures. According to him, the nation is currently discussing possibilities that the generation that lived before 2014—the year the BJP took power at the national level—had given up on. The prime minister stated that while credibility and success stories are now discussed, corruption and frauds dominated headlines back then. He also added that news these days comes from accomplishments in a variety of fields. Speaking about increased infrastructure and many development initiatives like Digital India and support for start-ups, he claimed that young people had an abundance of opportunities. He declared that the youth have always been his first focus, saying, "It is Modi's guarantee that your dreams are my resolve." He cited the removal of Article 370, the implementation of the GST, the reservation of seats for women in the Lok Sabha and assemblies, and the cessation of the practice of instant triple talaq among Muslims as examples of significant decisions and issues resolved during the last ten years of a stable and strong majority government at the Centre.

Justice PB Varale Sworn-In As SC Judge, Apex Court Gets Full Strength

editor January 25, 2024Leave a comment

NEW DELHI, Jan 25: Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud gave Chief Justice P B Varale of the Karnataka High Court the oath of office as a Supreme Court justice here on Thursday. One day after the Centre cleared his name for judicial office, the sworn-in ceremony took place on the Supreme Court's grounds. With the Chief Justice of India and three other sitting justices from the Dalit group, the top court now has 34 judges, including the Chief Justice of India. This is a first for the court. B R Gavai and C T Ravikumar are the other two judges currently in office who belong to the Scheduled Caste community. A five-judge SC Collegium chaired by Chief Justice CJI Chandrachud stated that it considered Justice Varale's seniority and status as the lone chief justice from the Scheduled Caste when supporting his nomination earlier this month. The retirement of Justice S K Kaul on December 25, 2018, left a vacancy in the top court. Within a week of the SC Collegium recommending Justice Varale, he was appointed. "The President is pleased to appoint Shri Justice Prasanna Bhalachandra Varale, Chief Justice of the Karnataka High Court, to be a Judge of the Supreme Court of India, with effect from the date he assumes charge of his office," a law ministry notification stated. This appointment was made in exercise of the powers granted by clause (2) of Article 124 of the Indian Constitution. The collegium recommended Justice Varale's appointment but noted that the Supreme Court had functioned at nearly full strength with 34 judges for the majority of the previous year. As a result, the court could record an unprecedented case-handling rate in 2023 by resolving 52,191 cases. It is now essential to make sure that the court always has judges on duty at all times due to the significant rise in their workload. As a result, the Collegium has chosen to suggest a candidate to fill the one open position," it had stated. Judge Varale was born on June 23, 1962, and on July 18, 2008, he was appointed as a judge of the Bombay High Court. On October 15, 2022, he was promoted to the position of chief justice of the Karnataka High Court. With Justice Varale's promotion to the highest court, the Bombay High Court will now have four justices representing it in the Supreme Court. The other three justices that sit in the Bombay High Court are Justices Gavai, Abhay S. Oka, and CJI Chandrachud.

Maharashtra devotees offer giant 7-foot sword, weighing 80 kg to Ram Lalla

editor January 25, 2024Leave a comment

AYODHYA: In Ayodhya, devotees from Maharashtra gave Ram Lalla a massive sword that measured seven feet three inches in length and weighed eighty kilogrammes. The present demonstrates the strong bond between Ayodhya and its adherents throughout India as well as the profound respect and devotion that Lord Ram Lalla's followers have for him. Nilesh Arun Sakar, a devotee who had brought the sword, introduced himself, saying, "I am a collector of ancient weaponry from Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra. I've displayed my weaponry in a number of locations. To dedicate to Lord Ram, I brought a sword today that resembles the Nandak Khadag, the weapon of Lord Vishnu. This sword is unique in that it is 7 feet 3 inches long and weighs 80 kg.""If you will look closely, you will find that the Khadak has been made with a dedication to Lord Vishnu Narayan and all of his 'Dashavatara' have been incorporated into this," he continued, discussing the specifics of the blade. The sword's handle is constructed of brass with a gilded covering, while the blade is composed of steel." The Hindu god of preservation, Lord Vishnu, has 10 avatars, collectively referred to as Dashavatara. The terms "dasa," which means "ten," and "avatara," which means "descent," are the roots of the word "Dashavatara." In order to restore cosmic order, Vishnu is thought to descend in the form of an avatar. Over the ages, these avatars have had a significant impact on how humans have evolved. Occasionally, the god Vishnu takes on human form in order to drive out bad forces, bring back the dharma, and free his devotees or worthy ones from the cycle of births and deaths. He went on to say that he took 1.5 months to create this sword, which is dedicated to Lord Ram.

SRINAGAR, Jan 25: According to officials on Thursday, there could be a lengthy dry spell in Jammu and Kashmir over the next few days despite the forecast of rain and snowfall in sporadic to widespread locations. Because of the cloud cover, the Kashmir valley's nighttime temperatures increased. According to reports, the minimum temperature in Srinagar city on Wednesday night was - 3.6 degrees Celsius, which was an increase from the previous night's negative 5.3 degrees Celsius. According to the meteorological service, Jammu and Kashmir will see mostly cloudy conditions on Thursday night, with sporadic higher areas experiencing light snowfall. It indicated that there is a probability of light rain on Friday over the plains and light snow in the early morning hours of the upper elevations.The MeT office predicted that on Saturday, conditions will likely stay cloudy with a chance of light snow in isolated higher reaches late in the evening. On Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, there will most likely be light to moderate rain and snow across extensive areas. It said that on February 1 and 2, there may also be light snow and rain in some areas. According to the weather office, the system may cause the temporary closure of significant passes, including the Mughal Road, Sinthan Pass, Razdan Pass, Sadhna Pass, and Zojila Pass, especially between January 28 and January 31. Due to cloud cover, the nighttime temperature in the Kashmir Valley improved in the meantime.According to officials, the minimum temperature in Srinagar city on Wednesday night was - 3.6 degrees Celsius, which was an increase from the previous night's negative 5.3 degrees Celsius. A minimum temperature of minus 6.3 degrees Celsius was recorded in Pahalgam, which is one of the base camps for the yearly Amarnath Yatra and is located in the Anantnag region in south Kashmir. The town of Qazigund reported a low temperature of minus 4.2 degrees Celsius, while the Gulmarg ski resort in north Kashmir recorded a low temperature of minus 4.5 degrees Celsius. At 1.6 degrees Celsius below zero in Kokernag town and 3.7 degrees below zero in Kupwara, it was the lowest temperature ever recorded.In Kashmir, a dry and mostly snowless winter has produced frigid nights and warmer-than-normal days. Due to the protracted dry season that Kashmir has been experiencing, there was a 79% rainfall shortfall in December. For the first three weeks of January, most of the valley has seen no precipitation. The majority of Kashmir's plains have not seen any snowfall, while the upper valley has had less snowfall than normal. Currently, Kashmir is experiencing "Chilla-i-Kalan," a 40-day severe winter season during which a cold wave saturates the area and low temperatures cause water in pipes and bodies of water to freeze. During this time, there is a greater likelihood of snowfall, and most places—especially the higher reaches—get a lot of snowfall. The last day of "Chilla-i-Kalan" is January 31. After that, though, there will be two further cold spells: a 10-day "Chilla-i-Bachha" (baby cold) and a 20-day "Chilla-i-Khurd" (little cold).
