editor October 11, 2023

NEW DELHI: Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi, claimed on Wednesday that there is a drive to delegitimize the AAP and that fabricated charges are being brought against party officials. After meeting the Delhi chief minister at his home on Tuesday, Amanatullah Khan, an AAP MLA whose residence was raided by the Enforcement Directorate (ED), made the allegations. In connection with a money-laundering probe involving Khan and some others, the ED searched Khan's Delhi property. Three to four locations were searched in accordance with the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, according to official sources.''There have been 170 charges brought against our (AAP) leaders, but the judgements in 140 of those cases have gone in our favour,'' the AAP chief told reporters after meeting Khan.They began detaining our key leaders and ministers in the past few months.The raids being conducted are a part of an effort to stop the AAP,'' he stated. Kejriwal said that neither the ED nor the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) are conducting any investigations in states where the BJP is in power, and that the saffron party's goal is to disturb opposition leaders rather than eradicate corruption. "We have observed how many who Modiji had referred to as corrupt have joined the BJP. He continued, "They have accepted corrupt individuals from opposition parties into their ranks. Kejriwal asserted that there is a climate of fear in the nation while reiterating that the AAP is a party of nationalists. He claimed that "people are leaving India and moving to other countries."

Pathankot attack mastermind Shahid Latif shot dead by unknown assailants in Pakistan

editor October 11, 2023

NEW DELHI: Shahid Latif, a Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) terrorist and the leader of the fidayeen squad that attacked the Pathankot airbase in 2016, was shot and killed on Tuesday inside a mosque in Sialkot, Pakistan, by unidentified gunmen. Latif was reportedly shot at close range by assailants who were familiar of the area topography, according to local news. This shows that local, homegrown terrorists were responsible for the murder, according to sources.Latif and 24 other terrorists were freed by India in 2010 as a result of efforts made by the UPA administration to mend relations with Pakistan. In fact, the same Jaish terrorists who hijacked Indian Airlines flight IC-814 and were successful in freeing their leader, Maulana Masood Azhar, along with two others in return for 154 passengers in December 1999, also demanded Latif's freedom. Latif and the other 31 people on Jaish's "wish list" were not, however, released by the Vajpayee administration at the time.

Shri Ram Janmabhoomi temple will be built with special bricks printed with ‘Shri Ram 2023’

editor October 11, 2023

AYODHYA: In Ayodhya, the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple is being constructed with unique bricks bearing Ram's name. These bricks are stronger and longer-lasting than regular bricks since they are created with a specific recipe. In addition, they bear the inscription "Shri Ram 2023" in honour of the year the temple is being built. Atul Kumar Singh, the proprietor of a brick kiln in the area, has been creating bricks with the help of his family for many years. Vasudev Narayan Singh, Singh's great-grandfather, contributed bricks to the construction of the first Ram temple in Ayodhya during the 16th century."When I visited the Ram Mandir to learn more about the unique brick called Shri Ram 2023, I learned that the bricks used here were demolished along with the disputed structure in 1992," said Atul Kumar Singh, the owner of Shri Ram Brick Kiln. The bricks discovered there were also discovered in VNS. Vasudev Narayan Singh, our grandfather, was named on it. When the temple was being built, he said, "Our contribution should be as great as that of our ancestors. When Ram Mandir Trust approached us and offered to create Shri Ram Brick, we accepted it and were informed that it is significantly more durable than regular bricks. "To reinforce the soil, a special equipment was employed. The soil that will be used to make the bricks has been kneaded by a special team. These bricks have been produced in the name of Shri Ram 2023 after they were lab tested and shown to be twice as strong as regular bricks before being utilised in construction. A contract was in place with Larson and Turbo to purchase around 8 lakh 50,000 bricks for the temple's construction. But these bricks are now also being used for other campus projects," he continued.The first phase of the construction of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya would be finished by December 30 of this year, according to Nripendra Misra, who heads the construction committee of the Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust. The temple is being built in three phases, according to Misra, who was previously Prime Minister Narendra Modi's principal secretary, and pilgrims will be able to enter the temple after the first phase is complete.
