KOHIMA: Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Congress, slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday, saying that for nine years following the signing of the Framework Agreement in 2015, he did nothing to resolve the Naga political issue. Speaking at a public gathering on his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra in the town of Mokokchung, Nagaland, Gandhi stated that a solution to the issue cannot be brought about without the Naga people's trust and without having a conversation with them. "If you don't have a solution, you should not lie and say you have a solution," he stated, criticising the prime minister. You can tell the Naga people that we must and will strive towards a solution, but you must not tell them falsehoods." He claimed that the Congress is aware of how serious the problem is and how urgent a solution is. "What the Prime Minister promised nine years ago is an empty vow to the Naga people," the former president of the Congress stated, making reference to the Framework Agreement. On Tuesday, Gandhi declared at a press conference held at Chiephobozou that his party is dedicated to finding a resolution to the long-standing Naga Political Issue. In 1947, the Naga insurgency started. The Centre has been in separate talks with the NSCN-IM since 1997 and the Working Committee of the Naga National Political Group (NNPG), which is made up of at least seven groups, since 2017 in an effort to find a solution to the long-standing issue. The Modi administration signed an Agreed Position with NNPGs in 2017 and a Framework Agreement with NSCN-IM in 2015. The NSCN-IM remains steadfast in its demand for a distinct flag and constitution for the Naga people, therefore a definitive solution is still pending. Following a nearly 180-kilometer road trip from Khuzama hamlet in the Kohima district to Mokokchung, Gandhi said that he noticed uneven road conditions and inconsistent electricity supply."How can young Nagas compete with the rest of the country's youth who have better facilities?" he said. It is an act of treason towards the Nagaland people. With these roads, how can we hope to provide the people of Nagaland a bright future?" The Congress politician claimed that the BJP and RSS were targeting India's diverse cultures and religions, waging an ideological war against them. "As Indians, everyone should respect each other's tradition, culture, food habits and religious practices, but the RSS and BJP are attacking them and disrespecting them," he said. Gandhi also criticised the Prime Minister for failing to travel to Manipur in spite of the state's months-long ethnic unrest. "As an Indian, I am ashamed that the Prime Minister has not been to Manipur yet after what happened there," he stated. Weeks after the violence started in the state, in June of last year, Gandhi travelled to Manipur for two days and spent time with the displaced people who were staying in relief camps spread across multiple districts. According to him, the purpose of the Yatra is to draw national attention to the people living in Manipur, Nagaland, and other northeastern states. Rahul Gandhi is the soldier that Nagas have in New Delhi from now on, said the Congress leader. He continued, "If you need me to raise any issue in Parliament I will be happy to do it." In addition, he urged youth—particularly women—to pursue political careers and offer Nagaland a fresh outlook on the future. Gandhi will spend the night in Tuli and set out for Assam early on Thursday to continue his Yatra. [caption id="attachment_9204" align="alignnone" width="300"] PM Modi did nothing for 9…

NEW DELHI, Jan 17: The Centre for Policy Research (CPR), a preeminent institute for public policy research in New Delhi, has had its registration under the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) revoked by the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) due to purported violations of specific foreign financing guidelines. Yamini Aiyar, President of CPR, stated, "The FCRA has been cancelled via order received on January 10 and the institution will weigh its options to seek justice." One of the reasons for the termination, according to the MHA, was reports on "current affairs programmes" that were released by CPR. The FCRA registration of CPR was suspended for 180 days, and then the suspension was extended for an additional 180 days. The MHA took action about a year later. In February of last year, the MHA suspended CPR's FCRA licence. Since its founding in 1973, the CPR has been a preeminent policy think tank, focusing on the problems facing India in the twenty-first century while doing sophisticated and in-depth research on a broad range of policy-relevant topics. The Income Tax administration carried out a "survey" operation against CPR and two other charities earlier in September 2022 as part of an investigation into their foreign funding. The organisations were Oxfam India and the Independent and Public-Spirited Media Foundation (IPSMF), situated in Bengaluru. Due to MHA's refusal to renew its FCRA licence in December 2021, Oxfam India's foreign funding is likewise barred in India. In parallel, Oxfam India is being looked at by the Central Bureau of Investigation. Subsequently, the CPR challenged the suspension of its licence in the Delhi High Court.The MHA then argued that CPR should no longer receive foreign funds because of worries that the organisation would receive donations from outside for unfavourable uses that may harm the nation's economic interests. The MHA had further charged that the CPR had violated the FCRA by moving foreign contributions to other organisations and depositing them in non-designated accounts.

PALASAMUDRAM (ANDHRA PRADESH): Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated on Tuesday that the nation is deeply religious ahead of the Pran Pratishtha event at the Ayodhya temple on January 22. He also noted that Lord Ram is a symbol of good governance in society and that his influence extends well beyond devotion. The Prime Minister expressed optimism that NACIN will expand the scope of good governance and advance trade and commerce in India during the official opening of the National Academy of Customs, Indirect Taxes, and Narcotics' new campus. The prime minister declared that the entire nation is "Rammay" throughout his speech, which included multiple allusions to the Ramayana. The whole nation is called Rammay and is devoted to Lord Ram, yet the scope of Lord Ram's existence, his source of inspiration, and his faith go far beyond devotion. "Lord Ram is a representation of socially responsible governance, and your organisation may find great inspiration in him," he remarked. The prime minister also mentioned his earlier in the day visit to the Veerbhadra Temple in the Lepakshi region of the state, where he claimed to have heard passages from the Telugu version of the Ranganatha Ramayan. He mentioned that many think that somewhere around here, Lord Ram had a conversation with Jatayu. "You are aware that I am performing an 11-day special ritual in front of Pran Prathistha at Ayodhya. I consider myself fortunate to have visited the temple at this fortunate time," the PM remarked.It is believed that Jatayu fell at Lepakshi after suffering severe injuries at the hands of Ravan, who had kidnapped Sita. It's also reported that Jatayu informed Lord Ram that Sita had been taken south by Ravan and that Lord Ram had afterwards bestowed moksha upon her. On January 22, there will be a Pran Pratishtha ceremony for Ramlala at the Ayodhya temple. According to PM Modi, NACIN ought to give India access to a cutting-edge trade and commerce ecosystem. In order to establish India as a significant global trading partner, he added, amicable conditions must be created. This includes facilitating business dealings with taxes, customs, and drugs. "We ought to fund social welfare with the money raised through taxation. India's tax system was once very convoluted. We introduced transparency and a distinctive tax structure to the nation with the GST. We started a system of anonymous tax assessments. The amount of taxes collected has increased to an unprecedented degree as a result of all these initiatives. The collections are held in the State treasury and given back to the public through a variety of programmes," he stated.

BARAMULLA, Jan 16: On Tuesday, Manoj Sinha, the lieutenant governor of Jammu and Kashmir, declared that panchayat and urban local body elections would "definitely" take place in the Union territory following the implementation of the Other Backward Classes (OBCs) reservation. He claimed that people who denied local bodies funding while they were in power were now politicising the matter and calling for a return to the previous state of affairs, but "we will not allow that." "I wish to inform my colleagues who served as panchs, sarpanches, and ULB representatives that the administration has begun the process of reserving seats for other backward classes, as required by the constitution following the enactment of the State Reorganisation Act."I want to reassure you that ULBs and Panchayat elections would undoubtedly be held in Jammu and Kashmir following the conclusion of this exercise. Here, Sinha stated, "I want to state that they will undoubtedly be held. Speaking to a crowd, he had just opened a stadium in the Baramulla area of north Kashmir that bears the name of General Bipin Rawat, the nation's first chief of military staff. People are aware of their objectives, according to Sinha, who said that some were engaging in political posturing due to the votes' prolonged delay. Politics is being played by some on the topic. People who strangled Panchayats and ULBs are now beginning to recall them. I don't want to say anything, but I believe that everyone in this room is well aware of those individuals' identities and motivations.He declared, "I want to assure you that we will not allow Panchayats to return to the same situation and that everything should happen through them." He urged everyone to take part in Republic Day ceremonies and fly the tricolour proudly, especially the younger generation. "I implore you to participate heavily in the 'Jhanda Ooncha Rahay Hamara' initiative. "I desire for Tiranga to fill the skies above Baramulla," he declared.
