Pakistan thrives on the dreams of killing Hindus and Ghazwa-e-Hind, the final conquest of Hindu-majority India: It is time we face the reality

Another Islamist is worried about ‘Nazi India’ under ‘fascist’ Modi rule. Pakistani  PM Imran Khan who earned the name of ‘Taliban Khan’ in Pakistan for his friendships, sympathies and links with the dreaded Taliban has concluded that RSS is a real threat to world peace after an ‘RSS man’ abolished article 370. Hypocrisy is a small word to describe this paradox.

Most people in India don’t understand Pakistan. There are two types of Indians:

1. The ones who hate Pakistan because of media reports, news and perception of Pakistan being an ‘enemy state’: common masses as well as people from defence who have had first-hand experience dealing with Pakistan.

2. The ones who want friendship with Pakistan: mainly liberals who believe good and bad people are found in all communities and bad people are present on both sides of the border (more on Indian side of course), Aunties in their 50s who wanted to marry the ‘hot’ Imran Khan in his cricketing days, many Punjabis (both Hindus and Sikhs) who believe partition of Punjab was worst thing to happen and we share the same culture, language, food, Bhangda etc, who tell stories how they went to see Ind-Pak cricket match in Lahore and next day went to visit their ancestral Haveli where nobody charged them for food, shopping etc. They conclude that partition was a dirty politics played on innocent Punjabis who otherwise wanted to stay together.

When Indian jets bombed terror camps at Balakot post-Pulwama, Imran Khan’s ‘gesture’ of returning Wg Cdr Abhinandan and sacking a Minister for anti-Hindu remarks won hearts of crores on the Indian side. There were Indian Bollywood intellectuals who demanded Nobel Peace Prize for Imran Khan and asked ‘Hindutva brigade in power’ to learn from Imran Khan and sack ‘Hindutva extremists’ from positions.

I wish to inform that both 1 and 2 are wrong, because,
a. Pakistan is not the enemy of India.
b. Pakistan will never be friends with India.

Looks paradoxical? Let’s begin with trying to understand the greatest paradox on the globe, Pakistan. Read till the end. There is some interesting food for thought for our agencies, forces, liberals and masses vis a vis Pakistan, its ideology and threats emanating from both. Test of “bad people are found on both sides” must also run in parallel. Let’s begin.

But first, the complete statements:

a. Pakistan is not enemy of India. Pakistan is the enemy of Hindus.
b. Pakistan will never be friends with India because India has Hindus in the majority.

Sit back and keep counting to know what these mean.

1. Constitution of Pakistan clearly says no Non-Muslim can become President, ever

Genocide of Hindus, natives, sons/daughters of soil started with Jinnah’s declaration of Pakistan being a Muslim state. Genocide was constitutionalised soon. Creation of Pakistan and bloodshed of millions required a justification. The demonisation of Hindus was thus the first step. Most liberals hide behind argument of “but bad people are on both sides”. Yes. But the constitution of one side sides with bad guys, that’s the problem.

2. Imran Khan – even cricket was Jihad

Let’s meet PM Imran Khan – Even in his cricketing days when some Aunties in India wanted to die for him, he saw every match against India as Jihad in Kashmir.

Imagine Virat Kohli saying – I score centuries against Pak coz Muslims drove my ancestors out of Lahore. I see Lahore as a part of Akhand Bharat.

3. Imran Khan’s Indian illegitimate children

Khan’s ex-wife shares some interesting features of this Nobel Peace Prize contender. Reham Khan writes that Imran Khan informed her of total 5 of his illegitimate children including Tyrian White. It’s interesting to see him boasting about some Indian illegitimate children of his, eldest being 34 years of age and how he ‘helped’ some Indian women get pregnant when their husbands failed to do so! This is a typical Pakistani mindset that considers victory in ‘winning’ women of others that forms the basis for rape, forced conversion, Nikah and disappearances of thousands of Hindu girls every year in Sindh and across Pakistan. And yes, this is the continuation of same rape tradition from Muhammad Bin Qasim to Ghazni to Ghori to Mughals that Pakistanis hail as heroes.

4. Imran Khan’s Minister who will destroy all temples

Meet Pakistan’s Railway minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed. He has been Pakistan’s minister 6 times. One of the most senior politicians, the right hand man of PM Imran Khan. He threatens Hindus of Pakistan and India with the demolition of all temples.

This minister in Imran Khan’s cabinet enjoys interesting company, as shown in the image below.

6. Imran Khan’s Minister vows “to kill ‘b*****d Modi”

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MO6ChQhOD98]

7. Imran Khan’s Minister reminds Hindus of the slaughter done by Sultan Gaznavi, Somnath, and Ghazwa-e-Hind

Meet Pakistan’s minister for Parliamentary Affairs,  Ali Muhammad Khan. He reminds 3.6 Million Hindus of Pakistan and 80 Crore of India of Sultan Mahmood Ghaznavi as to how he attacked, plundered and demolished the revered Somnath temple. He also reminds Hindus of Ghazwa e Hind, the bloody conquest of Hindus by Islamic forces, a Hadith in their holy books that says Hindus will be defeated, enslaved, killed or converted to Islam in the final war.

Imagine an Indian Minister threatening to attack Kaba in holy Mecca on Prime Time and wiping out all Muslim population.

9. Imran Khan’s Minister asks Hindus “when you are cow-piss drinkers and idolaters, how will you fight us (Muslims)”?

Meet Pakistan’s Punjab’s ex-cultural minister Fayaz Ul Hassan Chouhan. He tells Hindus that “you are cow-piss drinkers and idolaters and hence can’t fight us (Muslims)”. Before someone reminds me of his removal from ministry by Imran Khan, let me inform you that he has been back to the cabinet, with the Ministry for Colonies.

I think Imran Khan still deserves Nobel Peace Prize for keeping Hindu-hating minister away from a ministry for 4 months.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZvGWFc-tsk]

Another crucial point is that every India hater from Pakistani minister to suicide bomber Adil Dhar to Hafiz Saeed calls Hindus cow-piss drinkers. Even within the Indian border, it is important to identify and keep a vigil on such piss-obsessed traitors.

10. Imran Khan’s minister assuring Hafiz Saeed’s men, “no one can touch Hafiz Sahab till Imran Khan is in power”

11. Imran Khan’s Minister for Inter-faith harmony Noor Ul Haq Qadri in a spiritual discussion with Hafiz Saeed (also joined by Moulana Sami Ul Haq – father of Taliban)

Just to complete the list of Imran Khan’s non-Nazi companions/ministers, know about Pakistan’s Minister for Interior, Brig Ijaz Shah. According to the ex ISI Chief, Shah was the mastermind behind Osama Bin Laden’s safe years-long stay at Abbottabad near Pakistan Army’s academy. Former PM of Pakistan, Benazir Bhutto in a letter to the then President and Army chief – Parvez Musharraf wrote before her assassination that she fears she will be killed. Brig Ijaz Shah, the current Minister for Interior with Imran Khan was one among four she feared will get her assassinated!

Let’s come back quickly to Pakistan’s only narrative, hating Hindus.

12. Pakistani media admitting role in Pulwama, claim “they killed 350 Indian soldiers, not just 35”

Interestingly the same man earlier claimed that Pulwama was a false flag operation conducted by Indian agencies to trigger conflict with Pakistan for electoral gain for Modi. Now urge to become avengers-in-advance for Kashmiris on 370 made them forget what they peddled earlier.

14. Pak Army Brigadier Retd Haris Nawaz calls Modi – “Chai wala, Makkar, Dehshatgard Hindu PM (tea-seller, rascal, terrorist Hindu)”

Says no other faith could have done what they (Hindus of India) did. Although he is not aware that it is RSS and not RRS (a typical problem most Pakistani experts have in facts and pronunciation), still he knows enough about Hindu being a coward race.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6ZeUbIP94Q]

15. Imran Khan’s Brigadier will send non-state actors, Taliban and ISIS to teach ‘coward Hindu race’ a lesson in Kashmir

He says:

  • Pakistan has many non-state actors who can teach a lesson to ‘Hindu Kaum’. Hindu Kaum is such that it kneels down and touch your feet if you are strong. But if you show softness, they will start jumping on your heads.
  • They (Hindus) are not able to fight militarily
  • Pak will direct Taliban to Kashmir once the US withdraws from Afghanistan
  • Soon ISIS will be in Kashmir and Pakistan can’t stop it
  • Even FATF can’t do anything coz we will only send Mujahids in Kashmir but we won’t get involved in any terror financing! Genius! (If I kill someone, only 302 will apply. I will be protected from corruption charges.)

28. Pak Administrative Services Officer and senior analyst says “according to Quran, idolater Hindu is the biggest enemy of Muslims along with Jews”

Orya Maqbool Jan (Ex-officer Pakistan administrative services, columnist, prime time analyst)- Muhammad said in Hadith & Quran to Muslims – Jews and those who do Shirk (idolaters/polytheists) are your enemies. Today, Hindu is the only one who does Shirk (idolatry). Hence Hindu is the biggest enemy.

29. Pakistani astrologer explains new dimensions of ‘rascal’ Hindus

He has definitely read some hidden text of Hindus that no Hindu is aware of according to which Hindus believe in Avaagan (only Pakistanis know what this Avaagan is, is it Aavaagaman by any chance?) Ram was a character in Mahabharat that happened in Satyug! Kalyug belongs to goddess Kali! Anyway, the major point to drive home is ‘Hindu is rascal’. And this must be broadcast in primetime on national television.

35. Imran Khan’s minister: “I won’t say Sushma Ji blushed at this age on meeting me. Imran Khan bowled googly with Kartarpur corridor for Sikhs”

This is the foreign minister of a country talking about a female foreign minister of the other. There is a reason women ended up being the worst victims of rape, abduction forced conversion, marriage and sex-slavery during Islamic invasion and partition of India. There is also a reason why Pakistan is the worst country for non-Muslim women, especially Hindu girls. Women of disbelievers are always on target of Pakistani faith. (Will cover women and Pakistan in detail in upcoming articles)

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFcea808Qvc]

I can go on and on. Will stop now. One thing is clear. An Indian sees a Pakistani as a Pakistani. But a Pakistani sees an Indian as Hindu who can never be a friend. This was the whole meaning and basis of Pakistan. Remember when Wg Cdr Abhinandan was caught by Pakistani forces, what was the first thing they made him say?

My name is Abhinandan and my religion is Hindu.

If this can’t teach us lessons, nothing will. Pakistan is not a country. It is part of India that was populated by Hindu-hating radicalised people and is now captured. They have extended their claims on Kashmir. Punjab was tried in the 80s. It is still in the queue. And as their ministers said, Delhi is the final destination. Pakistan is just a launchpad. The goal is something bigger. If we leave Kashmir, they will claim Punjab. You leave Punjab, they claim Himachal. It won’t stop until Delhi. The final destination is complete Islamisation of India. Complete genocide/conversion/persecution of Hindus as laid out by half a dozen sitting ministers on prime time.

Those who try to create false equivalence on “extremists on both sides”, please look closely. How many ministers or Indian intellectuals have you seen on TV declaring all Muslims as enemies, rascals, fit to be killed/converted? How many people have actually been killed by “lynch mobs” in India? 10? 20? 100? 1.5 Million Hindus were killed alone in Pakistan during 1971 oppression of East Pakistan. Where is the comparison? 10 against 15,00,000? Stop fooling yourself.

Imagine, the above is what they could speak on prime time on national television! How dangerous would the real plans be that lie in the darkness of their hearts and closed-doors? Listen from one of them and prepare. This war is going to be dirtiest and longest.

“There can’t be any brotherhood between Hindu and Muslim. We beheaded our fathers who refused to accept Islam”: This is the narrative that is spread in Pakistan and is widely accepted by their people.

Uttar Pradesh: Muslim man shaves beard, creates a fake attack story to save himself from family’s anger

In a strange incident, a Muslim man in Baghpat created a tense situation after he faked an attack on himself claiming that a group of miscreants had attacked and shaved off his beard in a train while he was returning to Baghpat from Delhi.

However, after the initial investigation, it was found that he had concocted a fake story and had falsely claimed an attack on himself. The man had shaved off his own beard and had claimed that some ‘miscreants’ had done it to him.

According to reports, Mohammad Farooq, a resident of new Basti Mughalpura of Baghpat, reached home on Thursday night and informed his family that he boarded the train from Baghpat Road railway station to Delhi. He claimed that four youths forcibly took him off the train and cut his beard at the Sunhera railway halt. He said the attackers also stole Rs10,000 from him.

Reportedly, Farooq had started growing his beard in an Ijtima that took place in the city five years ago. However, lately, he was uncomfortable with his beard due to the heat. He wanted to get rid of his beard. But, Farooq could not get his beard cut due to family and social pressure in the Muslim community.

Around seven o’clock on Thursday morning, he boarded a truck from Baghpat to Delhi and met his friend Hasim after reaching the capital. Farooq asked his friend to shave his beard but his friend refused to shave. Later both of them reached a hair salon shop and Farooq got his beard cut.

Later in the evening, he had returned home from Delhi. As he landed at the bus stand in Baghpat, he got scared of his family following his new look without his usual beard. Fearing a strong reaction from the family, Farooq allegedly concocted a false story and tore off his clothes to convince the villagers that an attack had taken place on him in the train. He claimed that the attackers forcefully shaved his beard.

Farooq’s relatives soon complained about the matter by posting a tweet where they had tagged the Home Minister, Chief Minister, Railway Minister, DGP and the local SP.

Image Source: Twitter
On the information, SP Pratap Gopendra Yadav directed ASP Anil Kumar Singh, police officer Ompal Singh to reach the spot and take action.
When interrogated about the details of the attack on him, Farooq admitted that there was no attck and he had concocted the story to claim victimhood and save himself from his family’s wrath.
It is notable here that there have been many such incidents of claiming false attacks involving religious angles to claim victimhood.
There have also been many incidents where petty criminals had complained that there were beaten up after being forced to chant ‘Jai Sri Ram’, in an attempt to hide their crimes and claim victimhood by exploiting the religious hatred angle.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey’s Twitter account hacked, hackers post racist and abusive tweets

The account of Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey was hacked on Friday afternoon, reportedly sending racial and abusive tweets and retweets to over 4 million followers before Twitter secured the account.

Reportedly, a group called ‘Chuckling Squad’ claimed responsibility for the attack and the objectionable tweets from Jack Dorsey’s Twitter account. They posted racial slurs and content that was anti-Semitic in nature.

Further, the group also tweeted from Dorsey’s account stating that the Twitter headquarters had a secret bomb planted in its premises, sparking off alarms regarding the safety of the premises. One of the tweets from the hacked account said Nazi leader Adolf Hitler was innocent, while others contained derogatory comments about black people and Jews.

According to reports, the supporting channel set up by the hackers to mock the hack was subsequently taken down, and the racially abusive tweets from Dorsey’s account were removed. According to Twitter, an official investigation has now been launched into the incident.

The micro-blogging site, co-founded by Dorsey, said the phone number associated with his account was compromised due to a security oversight by the mobile provider. Dorsey’s account was restored within an hour and all the controversial tweets posted by the hackers were deleted. Some handles named in te compromised tweets were suspended by the company too.

“This allowed an unauthorized person to compose and send tweets via text message from the phone number. That issue is now resolved,” the company said. The tech-company also added that there was no indication that Twitter’s systems had been compromised.

This is not the first time that Jack Dorsey’s Twitter account has been hacked. In 2016, his account was compromised by a group that also hacked the Twitter accounts of Google CEO Sundar Pichai and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

Ayodhya: Shia Waqf Board stakes claim on disputed land, offers to give it to Hindus

0

The Shia Waqf Board has also staked a claim on the one-third share of the 2.77 acres disputed land at the Ramjanmabhoomi site in Ayodhya. As per reports, the board has claimed that they have a claim on it too and they are ready to give away their share to Hindus.

As per reports, advocate MC Dhingra, appearing for the Shia Central Waqf Board stated in court yesterday that in the 2010 verdict given by the Allahabad High Court, a one-third share of the disputed land was given to ‘Muslims’, and not specifically to Sunnis.

Dhingra stated before the 5-judge bench headed by CJI Ranjan Gogoi that in Shia Board’s records, the disputed Masjid at the site was listed as Masjid Mir Waqi and as a Shia property till 1944.

Dhingra further argued that the Mosque was wrongly enlisted as a Sunni Waqf property after 1944 and after that, the Sunni Waqf Board started staking a claim over the site.

Dhingra further argued that the Sunni Waqf Board had listed the property as theirs without giving any notice to the Shia board and the Shia Board had lost the 1946 case on ‘very slim grounds’.

The day-to-day hearing of the Ayodhya land dispute has been continuing in the Supreme Court. On Friday, advocate PN Mishra, representing the Akhil Bharatiya Sri Ram Janma Bhoomi Punarudhhar Samiti had concluded his arguments saying that Islamic Law does not allow for the adverse possession of any property, especially a Mosque if the landowner does not own the land completely. He also explained how the construction, design and practices at the place all indicated that it could never be a Mosque.

On Thursday, Mishra had put forth that the said Mosque was not constructed by Babur and there is no evidence that the Mosque was built in 1528. He furthered that Babur was also not the owner of the disputed land and hence the Sunni Waqf Board has no claim on the land.

The Sunni Waqf Board will present its arguments on Monday. The 5-member constitution bench has CJI Ranjan Gogoi, justices SA Bobde, DY Chandrachud, Ashok Bhushan and Abdul Nazeer.

Uttar Pradesh: BJP MLA’s grandson and fresher in Aligarh Muslim University alleges ragging, lodges complaint

0

Vijay Singh, the grandson of BJP MLA from Barauli, Dalvir Singh, has registered a complaint with the Civil Lines police station and the university authorities, alleging ragging by seniors in the Aligarh Muslim University (AMU).

Vijay, who is a fresher in the department of foreign languages in the university, alleged that on the first day of college, seniors entered his class, interrupted it and started ragging the juniors. He complained of being verbally assaulted by seniors during the introduction at Aligarh Muslim University.


“It was the first day of class when the seniors entered the class and interrupted it. The teacher was made to go out and they started ragging us. They asked students to stand up and sit down, to go outside and come in. I have complained to the police and to the Proctor and Pro-Vice-Chancellor,” said Vijay.

The Dean of the International Language Department, Professor Mohammad Gulrez, however, trivialized the matter by saying that it was not a very serious matter. “It was a trivial matter. The second-year students just wanted to get an introduction and unfortunately, he took it as ragging. He also got into a verbal spat with a senior. The anti-ragging committee is looking into it and the matter will be resolved soon.”

Meanwhile, AMU spokesperson Shafey Kidwai has said: “AMU has a strong system in place against ragging. Vijay Singh’s complaint was received at the office of proctor & has been forwarded to the department of foreign languages. Their anti-ragging committee has sent notices to involved students”.

Recently, another case of ragging at a medical college in Uttar Pradesh had surfaced where around 150 MBBS students studying at Saifai Medical College in Etawah, Uttar Pradesh were forced to tonsure their heads and salute their seniors in the name of ragging.

Last year too, a similar case had come to the fore in which around 100 first-year students of Motilal Nehru Medical College in Allahabad in Uttar Pradesh were forced to tonsure their heads and were thrashed if someone dared to disobey the orders.

On 22 May 26-year-old Payal Tadvi, a second-year MD in gynaecology at BYL Nair Hospital in Mumbai Central, hanged herself in the college hostel room alleging harassment by seniors.

Hong Kong solidarity march taken out by Tibetans in New Delhi

0

The Tibetan Youth Congress (TYC) on Friday held protests in New Delhi to express solidarity with Hong Kong against China. About 200-300 protestors marched between Connaught Place (CP) and Jantar Mantar as an expression of support to the ongoing pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong.

The protestors hit the streets of the national capital holding umbrellas that had slogans printed on them. They held a protest at Jantar Mantar after reaching there. Hong Kong has been witnessing protests consistently since March-end against China and in favour of restoring democracy. At present Hong Kong is a special administrative region of southern China. It’s sovereignty was transferred to China in 1997 by the UK.

The Dharmasala based Tibetan Youth Congress (TYC) is a worldwide Organisation of Tibetans in exile struggling for the restoration of complete independence for the whole of Tibet, currently occupied by China.


The protests first erupted after China proposed an extradition bill paving way for China to extradite suspects to the mainland for trials. The bill has been shelved, however, the protests have now taken a pro-democracy shape with people demanding investigations for alleged police cruelty.

Ever since the protests broke out, more than 800 protesters have been arrested by the police including Joshua Wong, the popular pro-democracy leader.


Reports about the protestors being treated with pepper spray by the police have also emerged. The police has also resorted to batons and water cannon to scatter the crowd.

China while criticizing the protests has called for peace in Hong Kong.

Octogenarian professor writes to advocate Rajeev Dhavan cursing him for “blasphemy” of appearing for Muslim parties in Ayodhya hearing

0

Senior Advocate Rajeev Dhavan, who has been representing the Sunni Waqf Board in the Ayodhya-Babri dispute case, filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking action for criminal contempt against a Chennai-based professor. In the petition, Dhavan alleges that he was being threatened by the professor for appearing for Muslim parties in the Ayodhya case.

Dhavan mentioned in his petition that he had received a letter on August 14 penned by one professor named N Shanmugham, threatening him for appearing for the Muslim parties.

Shanmugham in his letter has allegedly accused the senior advocate of “betraying his faith” by appearing on behalf of the Muslims, fighting for their “so-called right in Ayodhya”. In the letter, the 88-year-old professor allegedly cursed the advocate and wrote that he “will pay for his blasphemy”.

The professor in his letter to the advocate allegedly wrote: “Hindus will not forgive you [Dhavan] for your present Role. If you have a conscience, recuse yourself immediately from (illegible) go back home and sit quietly ruling over your fate. Waiting for the lord’s judgment.

From Feb 1941 till today, I have chanted Gayatri Mantra 50 lakh times. From Sept 1958 till today, I have read Chapter 10 of GITA 27000 times. With that tongue, I curse you. Very soon my Lord will give you the punishment you deserve. You will live like a vegetable and a burden on Earth laughed and derided at by society. Your family shall perish without anyone to lit (sic) the fire.

That shall be the price you will pay for your blasphemy. I can’t but pity you. I am ashamed of you,” stated the petition.

Dhavan submitted that this is not an isolated instance of threats being made to him over his appearance in the Ayodhya case. He added that he had been also receiving intimidating messages on Whatsapp by one Sanjay Kalai Bajrangi. “It needs to be mentioned that the petitioner has been accosted both at home and in the court premises with intimidating behaviour by several people”, read the petition.

Notably, Rajeev Dhavan is the same advocate who had raised objections to the Constitution Bench hearing the Ayodhya case in a day-to-day format. Threatening to leave the case if the court continues to follow the five days a week hearing in the Ayodhya case, Dhavan had submitted before the court that he will “not be able to assist” the court if the hearing is “rushed through”.

The day to day hearing in the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land dispute case began on August 6. The case is being heard by a 5 judge Constitutional bench comprising of Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi and Justices SA Bobde, DY Chandrachud, Ashok Bhushan and Abdul Nazeer.

The daily hearings were prescribed by the Constitutional bench on August 2 after taking note of the failed mediation by a three-member panel led by former Supreme Court judge FMI Kalifulla, also comprising of spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravishankar and senior advocate and renowned mediator Sriram Panchu.

The panel had said in its report that the Hindu and the Muslim parties had not been able to find a solution to the long-standing title suit.

Congress’ internal feud exposed as Scindia faction threatens mass resignation if he is not made MP Congress chief

Discontentment within senior Congress party ranks has started surfacing after a group of state leaders from Madhya Pradesh came out to demand that Jyotiraditya Scindia be made the president of Madhya Pradesh unit. The Scindia camp has threatened to resign en masse if their demand is not fulfilled.

Following the resignation of Chief Minister (CM) Kamal Nath as the Madhya Pradesh Congress Committee president, the post remains vacant.

Despite losing his home seat of Guna in the Lok Sabha elections this year, Scindia continues to command a large following of supporters within the party. His supporters have issued a statement saying if Scindia is not made the state unit chief, they would tender mass resignations.

“The party workers who have threatened to resign have the right to put forward their thoughts within the party. Under the same rights, I would also like to say that Scindia ji should be made the Madhya Pradesh Congress Committee chief by the high command. We request Sonia ji and Rahul ji to do the same. If this is not done, then I, along with other senior office bearers in the state, will tender our resignations,” a Congress leader stated.

“If Jyotiraditya Scindia is kept away from state politics then I, along with 500 others, will resign from the party,” Congress leader Ashok Dangi from Datia said in a press note.


According to a News18 report, even though Scindia declined to comment on the issue, reports have come out that he has issued an ‘ultimatum’ to the party’s central leadership that he should be made the head of the state unit or else he may have to pursue other options, an indication that he himself may leave the party.

Madhya Pradesh CM Kamal Nath who is in Delhi for a meeting with Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi today denied any trouble with Scindia amid reports of a tussle over who will lead the Congress in the state. “I don’t think Jyotiraditya Scindia is unhappy,” the CM told reporters after his meeting with Gandhi at her home.

Court records CBI’s submission that Chidambaram is non-cooperative and evasive, extends his custody till September 2

Seems like former Finance Minister and Congress leader P Chidambaram‘s troubles are not going to end any time soon. A Delhi court has extended the CBI custody of the Congress leader by another three days till 2nd September, considering that the Supreme Court is also set to hear the Special Leave Petition (SLP) against remand order on that day.

P Chidambaram, who was arrested on August 21 and sent to Central Bureau Investigation (CBI) custody in connection with the INX Media case, will now stay in the CBI remand till Monday. Earlier he had been remanded for 4 days twice, and his second remand was to end today.

Earlier in the day, the CBI had sought an extension of P Chidambaram’s custodial interrogation by five days in a Delhi court in the INX Media case. He was produced before Special Judge Ajay Kumar Kuhar on Friday after the expiry of his 4-day CBI custody.

Additional Solicitor General (ASG) KM Natraj, who appeared for CBI, submitted before the court that Chidambaram has been partially interrogated. He said that though Chidambaram was being interrogated for 8-10 hours a day, however, since  the volume of documents were huge, CBI pleaded for an extension of his custody. “He needs to be confronted with more evidence”, argued Natraj in court.

The court recorded CBI’s submission that P Chidambaram was non-cooperative and evasive.

It is notable to mention here that CBI, displeased with Chidambaram’s evasive answers to their questions, has been contemplating on securing court’s permission to conduct a lie-detection test on him.

Interestingly, SG Tushar Mehta, as well as Senior Advocates Kapil Sibal, Abhishek Manu Singhvi, who are representing Chidambaram in court, were missing from action today.

The court has granted the CBI repeated extensions to interrogate the senior Congress leader. Earlier, on August 26, a special CBI court at the Rouse Avenue court complex had extended the CBI custody of Congress leader P Chidambaram by four more days. Accepting CBI request to extend the custody, the court allowed them to keep him for custodial interrogation till 30th August.

On 22nd August, the special CBI court had granted CBI four days custody of P Chidambaram, against the agency’s request of five day’s custody. CBI had presented him at the court after his dramatic arrest on 21st August.

Notably, while the Congress era scam-tainted leader remains in CBI custody, the Supreme Court is hearing his petition against Delhi High Court order rejecting his anticipatory bail plea against arrest by ED on August 28, further extended his interim protection from arrest by Enforcement Directorate.

The apex court granted protection to Chidambaram from ED arrest even while the CBI continues to interrogate him in custody in his culpability in the INX Media case.

Nirmala Sitharaman announces PSU bank reforms, mergers brings down their number to 12 from 27 in 2017

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman briefed the media on Friday afternoon making some significant announcements. Continuing with her big bang announcements to assist the economy last Friday, she made significant announcements today as well.

Sitharaman announced the merger of several banks which will bring down the number of public sector banks from 27 in 2017 to 12 two years later.


The Oriental Bank of Commerce and United Bank will be merged with Punjab National Bank, Indian Bank will be merged with Allahabad Bank, Syndicate Bank will be merged with Canara Bank, while Andhra Bank and Corporation Bank will be merged with Union Bank of India.

The objective of the mergers, she said, was to turn them into global sized banks. “Consolidation of Bank of Baroda, Vijaya Bank and Dena Bank has brought about wide-ranging benefits,” said Nirmala Sitharaman.

She stated, “Punjab National Bank, Oriental Bank of Commerce and United Bank will be brought together and they shall form the second largest public sector bank with the business of Rs 17.95 lakh crore”. Canara Bank’s merger with Syndicate Bank will make it the fourth-largest public sector bank. The mergers are expected to help create ‘next-generation banks’. It would help India become a $5 trillion economy, she said.


“We shall continue with 2 banks which will have a national presence, Bank of India with Rs 9.3 Lakh Crores of business size and Central Bank with Rs 4.68 Lakh Crores of business size,” added Sitharaman. “Staff should be dedicated at the branch level to make sure last Friday’s announcements are implemented and this consolidation is smoothly applied,” she stated.


Sitharaman also told the media that in this financial year, 14 of the 18 public sector banks are in a profit-earning situation. Furthermore, she stated that the Board Committee of National Banks will appraise the performance of General Manager and above. After consolidation, boards will be given the flexibility to introduce CGMs as per business needs.


Finance Secretary Rajeev Kumar stated, “In amalgamation process, number of banks have been brought down to 12 from 27. There has been no retrenchment so far, there is no chance of retrenchment. The benefits of employment & HR will improve, with amalgamation the best combination will be taken up.”

The finance minister asserted that no jobs will be lost and the mergers will be a significant step to bring down NPAs.
