"If My Remote With Someone Else...": Congress Chief's Counter To PM Modi

Hitting back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's "remote control" jibe at him and the Congress, AICC President Mallikarjun Kharge on Monday asked as to where was BJP chief JP Nadda's remote control.

Accusing the Modi-led BJP government of "troubling" party leader Rahul Gandhi for "speaking the truth", the Congress President said he doesn't fear such things and was ready for everything.

"PM Modi came to Belagavi and said - Kharge has become President (Congress), but remote control is with someone else. Okay, my remote control is with someone else, but where is Mr Nadda's (BJP national President J P Nadda) remote control?" Mr Kharge asked.

Addressing the 'Yuva Kranti Samavesha', a youth convention, organised by the party's state unit here, he said: "Mr Nadda speaks under control of whose remote? There are lots of weak spots about you (BJP), for us (Congress) to speak about. You lack courage..." Claiming that Mr Kharge, who hails from the state, was insulted and disrespected by the Congress in favour of a "family", despite his seniority and age, PM Modi while addressing a public meet on February 27 had said, "This shows Mr Kharge is Congress President just for the sake of it, and looking at the way he is treated, everyone can see and understand, as to whose hands the remote control is in." Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, General Secretaries KC Venugopal and Randeep Singh Surjewala, state unit chief DK Shivakumar, Legislature Party leader and Leader of Opposition Siddaramaiah among several leaders were part of the mega rally organised at CPED ground.

"Your (BJP government's) ED, CBI or CVC cannot overpower us, we don't fear them. Rahul Gandhi has never feared and will never fear. He speaks the truth, and such a person is being troubled. Let them do it, will they jail him? We are ready for everything," he added.

Pointing out that during the course of the nationwide Bharat Jodo Yatra from Kanyakumari to Kashmir, Mr Gandhi met farmers, youth, women, and every strata of the society, Mr Kharge said: "Forty-six days after the speech made by Rahul Gandhi in Jammu and Kashmir about the problems shared by the people, Delhi Police came to his door seeking for proof regarding his statement on alleged rape or sexual harassment on a women, quoting her."

Despite the Karnataka contractors' association giving proof for their 40 per cent commission charge in the state, no action is being taken, Mr Kharge claimed. "Modi and Shah (Amit Shah) should take action here and make an inquiry as the proof is already given here, then come to Rahul Gandhi." This was Mr Kharge's first visit to Belagavi after taking over as the Congress President.

He pointed out that Belagavi was a "sacred land" for Congress, as Mahatma Gandhi was elected as the party's President in the district in 1924, and Jawaharlal Nehru was appointed as the General Secretary.

Mr Kharge, seeking the blessings of the people of the state for the upcoming assembly polls, asked the party leaders and workers to fight the polls with unity.

He also accused the BJP government in Karnataka of rampant corruption, and praised the KPCC's poll 'guarantees' including the unemployment allowance for the youth, which was announced today as the fourth 'guarantee', in the event of the party coming to power.

The party has already announced three poll 'guarantees' — 200 units of free power to all households (Gruha Jyoti), Rs 2,000 monthly assistance to the woman head of every family (Gruha Lakshmi), and 10 kg of rice free to every member of a BPL household (Anna Bhagya).

Foreign Lawyers, Firms Can't Appear In Indian Court, Says Lawyers' Body

The Bar Council of India (BCI) assured Indian lawyers on Sunday that foreign advocates and law firms will not be allowed to appear in any court or judicial forum and that they can only advise their clients about foreign laws and international laws.

The BCI assurance came after its recent decision to permit foreign lawyers and law firms to practise in certain areas evoked mixed reactions and created "some misgivings".

Recently, the apex bar body took a significant decision to permit foreign lawyers and law firms to practise in areas such as foreign law, international legal issues and arbitration matters, saying that the legal fraternity here may be left behind if it sleeps over the matter.

The BCI decision to notify the Bar Council of India Rules for Registration and Regulation of Foreign Lawyers and Foreign Law Firms in India, 2022 evoked mixed reactions from bar leaders.

"There are some misgivings in circulation about the recently published Gazette notification by BCI regarding entry of foreign lawyers and law firms in India. BCI, therefore, deems it appropriate to clarify the issue and place the following facts for the information of all advocates and the general public, so that there is no scope of any misapprehension or misinformation,” it said in a release.

"Foreign lawyers and law firms shall be allowed to advise their clients about foreign laws and international laws only," the statement issued by Srimanto Sen, the BCI secretary, stated.

Foreign lawyers and law firms would render advisory work about such laws for their foreign clients only, it said, adding that they will be allowed to function in “non litigation areas only”.

"Foreign lawyers and law firms shall not be allowed to appear in any Court, Tribunal, Board, before any Statutory or Regulatory Authority or any forum legally entitled to take evidence on oath and/or having trappings of a court,” it said.

The entry of foreign lawyers would be on reciprocal basis only, it said, adding that they would be allowed to appear for their clients in international commercial arbitration.

"Experience and facts show that MNCs and foreign commercial entities, in case of International Commercial Arbitration, don't prefer India as a venue of arbitration proceedings, because they are not allowed to bring lawyers and law firms from their own countries to advise them in International Commercial Arbitration Proceedings, thus, making them to prefer London, Singapore, Paris, etc. as the venue for arbitration proceedings,” the statement said.

The BCI rules will now encourage India being preferred as a venue for such international arbitration proceedings, thus helping India become a hub of international commercial arbitration, it said.

“The BCI stands committed to protect and safeguard interest and welfare of advocates in the country and requests the entire advocate fraternity to welcome these rules in national interest,” it said.

The BCI rules should not be misconstrued to allow any non-lawyer or any BPO or agent to come here and start practising in any field of law, the statement said.

Moreover reciprocity is the very essence of the rule, which may be kept in mind, it added.

"There's A Limit": Eknath Shinde's Scathing Attack On Uddhav Thackeray

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Sunday launched a scathing attack on Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray accusing him of attempting to destroy the careers of leaders of his own party.

Addressing a rally at Khed in Ratnagiri district from the same venue where Mr Thackeray had addressed a gathering a fortnight ago, Mr Shinde said he was the true inheritor of the legacy of Bal Thackeray, founder of Shiv Sena.

The Election Commission recently recognised the faction led by Mr Shinde as the Shiv Sena and allotted it the "bow and arrow" poll symbol.

Mr Shinde, whose coup against Uddhav Thackeray had split the Shiv Sena last year and toppled the MVA government led by Mr Thackeray, said he had never seen a leader who conspires with other political parties to destroy the political careers of his own people.

He took the names of Raj Thackeray (MNS chief) and Narayan Rane among others, who had quit Shiv Sena a long time ago.

''How will the party grow in such a situation? I am not 'gaddar' (traitor) but 'khuddar' (a self-respecting person). Uddhav Thackeray doesn't have the right to call us traitors," he said.

Senior leaders like Gajanan Kirtikar, Ramdas Kadam and others had worked shoulder to shoulder with Balasaheb to strengthen the Shiv Sena, but you call them traitors. "There is a limit to exercise restrain,'' Mr Shinde added.

"I am not a chief minister who gives orders sitting at home but I believe in going to the field during the time of crisis. I was infected with the coronavirus twice. I have always worked on the field, but you call me a traitor,'' he said targetting Mr Thackeray.

Mr Thackeray was accused by the Opposition BJP and the Shinde camp of running the government from the comfort of his private residence in Mumbai during his tenure as the chief minister when the pandemic had wreaked havoc.

"Uddhav Thackeray may be the heir to Balasaheb Thackeray's wealth but not to the ideology which he has mortgaged to the Congress and the NCP to become the chief minister (in November 2019). I am the inheritor of Balasaheb's ideology and legacy," Mr Shinde said.

He said Uddhav Thackeray should know that Balasaheb was much bigger than just being his (Uddhav's) father and he should stop harping on the same to gain "sympathy".

"I don't want your wealth. Balasaheb may be your father but don't keep harping on that to gain sympathy. Balasaheb was much bigger than just being your father,'' Mr Shinde charged.

He also targeted the Congress party and said Shiv Sainiks need to choose between Rahul Gandhi "who can't win state elections and cannot take responsibility for his party and the nationalist and patriotic prime minister Narendra Modi".

बंगाल शिक्षक भर्ती घोटाला : सीबीआई ने नियुक्ति में अनियमितता को लेकर एक और प्राथमिकी दर्ज की

केंद्रीय अन्वेषण ब्यूरो (सीबीआई) ने पश्चिम बंगाल के प्राथमिक विद्यालयों में वर्ष 2020 के दौरान सहायक शिक्षकों की नियुक्ति में कथित अनियमितता के सिलसिले में एक और प्राथमिकी दर्ज की है. अधिकारियों ने रविवार को यह जानकारी दी.
उन्होंने कहा कि कलकत्ता उच्च न्यायालय के आदेश पर अज्ञात लोगों के खिलाफ प्राथमिकी दर्ज की गई है, जिसमें जांच एजेंसी को आरोपों की जांच करने का निर्देश दिया गया है.

यह मामला शिक्षक पात्रता परीक्षा (टीईटी) उत्तीर्ण और प्रशिक्षित अभ्यर्थियों के लिए 23 नवंबर, 2020 को पश्चिम बंगाल प्राथमिक शिक्षा बोर्ड (डब्ल्यूबीबीपीई) द्वारा शुरू की गई 16,500 प्राथमिक शिक्षकों की नियुक्ति प्रक्रिया में कथित अनियमितताओं से संबंधित है.

बोर्ड ने अभ्यर्थियों के साक्षात्कार और योग्यता परीक्षण (एप्टीट्यूड टेस्ट) के बाद 15 फरवरी, 2021 को पहली मेरिट सूची प्रकाशित की थी.

प्राथमिकी में आरोप है कि, ‘‘ डब्ल्यूबीबीपीई ने पश्चिम बंगाल में प्राथमिक विद्यालयों के लिए सहायक शिक्षकों की नियुक्ति में भ्रष्ट तरीके अपनाए. ऐसा करने के लिए और अभ्यर्थियों को अंधेरे में रखने के मकसद से बोर्ड ने सफल उम्मीदवारों की पूरी योग्यता सूची प्रकाशित नहीं की.''

इसमें कहा गया है कि ऐसा करना पश्चिम बंगाल प्राथमिक शिक्षक भर्ती नियम-2016 के नियम और इसमें बाद में किये गये संशोधनों के प्रतिकूल था.

प्राथमिकी के मुताबिक अयोग्य अभ्यर्थियों को मेरिट सूची के जरिये उन्हें आगे बढ़ाने के लिए छेड़छाड़ करके उनकी श्रेणियों को सामान्य से बदलकर ‘छूट प्राप्त' कर दिया गया. पश्चिम बंगाल में शिक्षक भर्ती घोटाले से संबंधित मामलों की निगरानी कलकत्ता उच्च न्यायालय कर रहा है.

Reporters Must Not Become Activists With "Vested Interests": Minister

The news reporters must not become activists with vested interests, Union Minister Jitendra Singh said on Sunday as he called for showing the brighter side of the government which had taken many historical decisions for public good.

He also said under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the COVID-19 adversity turned into an opportunity as world's first DNA vaccine and nasal vaccine for the coronavirus was indigenously developed bolstering India as a vaccine development and manufacturing centre.

The Minister of State in the Prime Minister's office was speaking at two separate functions.

"The media must show the brighter side of the government like the DoNER model of development in the North-East which has changed the development paradigms of the region, the 'StartUp Stand-up' revolution, historical decision of abolishing interviews for non-gazetted posts and the deep sea mission under the leadership of Modi," said Mr Singh, a former minister of Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER).

"The socio-economic reforms made by this government like the family pension to the divorce daughter, family pension to the families of missing government employees especially in J&K and North East and the digital life certificate must be brought to the public by the media so that information is disseminated to the deserving," he said at the launch of J&K chapter of Public Relations Society of India (PRSI).

He said the reporters must not become activists with vested interests as biases can creep in making news not newsworthy.

"Communication is emerging now as an institution and it becomes the responsibility of PRSI to place the institution above the individual for the welfare of the people," the minister said.

He said the greater responsibility of PRSI is to fill the gaps in government communication in such a manner that the people are informed by the media according to the development communication models.

Calling Modi as the "best communicator in the world", Mr Singh said he has initiated new areas, laid the foundation of unexplored areas which were never in news, the best example being the 'Swachhta'.

Attending Medicos Meet 'Celebrating the Multi-faceted', he said under Modi, the COVID-19 adversity turned into an opportunity in India when world's first DNA vaccine and nasal vaccine for coronavirus was indigenously developed in India which has not only strengthened 'AtmaNirbhar Bharat' but also bolstered India's status as a worldwide vaccine development and manufacturing centre.

On the occasion, the latest 2023 edition of the RSSDI Text Book of Diabetes Mellitus for postgraduate students was released. The book has the foreword and an exclusive chapter by Mr Singh, who is also a nationally known diabetologist and Professor of Diabetes and Medicine.

"The path breaking decisions by the Modi-led government will be written in the golden words in history not done from the last 70 years, be that the done away with the attestation by a gazetted officer," he said.
