Political Clash Erupts in Chandigarh Over Dr. Ambedkar’s Legacy

Congress and AAP councillors moved a motion demanding the resignation of Union Home Minister Amit Shah.

A heated exchange erupted during the Chandigarh Municipal Corporation&rsquo;s general house meeting as Congress and BJP councillors clashed over Dr. BR Ambedkar's legacy.
The confrontation began when Anil Masih, the poll officer accused of tampering with ballot papers during the mayoral elections, targeted Congress and accused Rahul Gandhi of being out on bail due to the National Herald case. This sparked a brawl among Congress, AAP, and BJP members.
Congress and AAP councillors moved a motion demanding the resignation of Union Home Minister Amit Shah. In response, BJP members accused Congress of disrespecting Dr. Ambedkar, particularly during Jawaharlal Nehru's time as Prime Minister.

The BJP also claimed Congress was distorting Mr. Shah's recent Rajya Sabha speech to tarnish his image. Senior BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad criticized Congress for allegedly staging a "smear campaign" against Shah. He accused the party of hypocrisy, stating that while Congress had insulted Dr. Ambedkar during his life, it was now trying to exploit his legacy for political gain.
The BJP demanded an apology from Congress for its historical treatment of Dr. Ambedkar. In response, Congress launched a weeklong nationwide campaign, "Ambedkar Samman Saptah," to honor Dr. Ambedkar's contributions. Party members are holding marches and press conferences to emphasize his legacy and hold Amit Shah accountable for his recent comments.

Give up stubbornness, talk to farmers: Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann to Centre

Farmer leader from Punjab Jagjit Singh Dallewal has been on a hunger strike at the Khanauri border since November 26 to put pressure on the Centre to accept the farmers&rsquo; demands.

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Tuesday urged the Centre to give up its &ldquo;stubbornness&rdquo; and hold talks with farmers who are protesting at the state&rsquo;s border over various issues, including a legal guarantee of Minimum Support Price (MSP) for crops.
Farmers led by Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non-Political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha, have been camping at Shambhu and Khanauri border points between Punjab and Haryana since February 13 after their march to Delhi was stopped by security forces.
Farmer leader from Punjab Jagjit Singh Dallewal has been on a hunger strike at the Khanauri border since November 26 to put pressure on the Centre to accept the farmers&rsquo; demands.
As his fast entered the 27th day on Sunday, doctors termed his health condition &ldquo;critical&rdquo;.
In a post on X, Mann said the central government should give up its &ldquo;stubbornness&rdquo; and open the way for talks with the farmer organisations.
&ldquo;If Modi ji can stop the war between Russia and Ukraine, then can&rsquo;t he talk to the farmers sitting 200 kilometres away (from Delhi)? What time are you waiting for?&rdquo; he asked.
A &lsquo;jatha&rsquo; (group) of 101 farmers attempted to march to Delhi thrice between December 6 and 14 but was stopped by security personnel in Haryana.
On December 19 too, Mann urged the Centre to hold talks with the protesting farmers. He said it was the Centre&rsquo;s duty and any issue could be resolved through dialogue.&nbsp;

Goa may face beef shortage as traders on strike against cow vigilantism

Police have failed to take action despite receiving complaints, he said, adding that meat traders would continue the strike till they get an assurance from the government about their security.

Goa could face beef shortage ahead of Christmas and New Year with meat traders in the state going on a strike to protest against `increased harassment&rsquo; by cow vigilante groups.
The shutdown started on Monday under the banner of the Quraishi Meat Traders Association (QMTA).
In a letter to Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, the association claimed there was an increase in attacks from right-wing Hindu organisations on shops which sell beef legally.
&ldquo;The recent attack happened in Margao. We want action against these groups. We need protection from the government,&rdquo; said Abdul Bepari, a QMTA member.
Police have failed to take action despite receiving complaints, he said, adding that meat traders would continue the strike till they get an assurance from the government about their security.
As per government statistics, 20-25 tonnes of beef is sold in the coastal state daily, and the sales increase during tourist and festive seasons.
Congress MLA Carlos Alvares Ferreira told reporters on Monday that incidents of vigilantism were occurring across the state. &ldquo;Whether it is meat traders or any organisation, one must abide by the law,&rdquo; he said.
There have been instances where mobs suddenly entered houses to check the fridge or cupboard for beef, he said. &ldquo;This is absolutely trespassing and they have no authority to go there,&rdquo; the MLA added.
Cow vigilante groups also demand that they be allowed to inspect meat at shops though they do not have any authority, said Ferreira.
&ldquo;These people do not belong to any recognised bodies, and even if they are recognised (organisations), they have no right to enter shops and do such activities,&rdquo; he said.
Chief Minister Sawant on Monday had said the state-run Goa Meat Complex Limited will cater to the beef requirement. &ldquo;The meat complex provides hygienic beef,&rdquo; he had said.

Prevent enrolment of illegal Bangladeshi migrants: DoE to Delhi schools

It directed the heads of all government, government-aided and unaided recognised private schools to refer to the local police and the revenue authority in any case where they have doubts.

The Directorate of Education on Monday asked schools in Delhi to prevent the enrolment of &ldquo;illegal Bangladeshi migrants&rdquo; by ensuring a strict document verification process during admission.
&ldquo;Schools must ensure strict admission procedures, verification of students&rsquo; documentation to prevent illegal Bangladeshi migrants&rsquo; enrolment&hellip; implementation of greater scrutiny to detect and prevent unauthorised admissions of illegal Bangladeshi migrants, in particular,&rdquo; according to the circular.
It directed the heads of all government, government-aided and unaided recognised private schools to refer to the local police and the revenue authority in any case where they have doubts.
The Directorate of Education further instructed the school heads to ensure that a careful process is followed to verify and handle all necessary documentation when enrolling the children of migrants.
The District Directorate of Education (districts/zones) was directed to submit weekly reports of all such cases to the school branch headquarters and the Directorate of Education.
Delhi Chief Minister Atishi said BJP members are bringing &ldquo;Rohingyas to Delhi by crossing the border from Bangladesh, providing them with EWS flats and facilities that rightfully belong to the people of Delhi&rdquo;.
&ldquo;On the other hand, there is the Aam Aadmi Party&rsquo;s Delhi government, which is taking every possible step to ensure that the rights of Delhiites are not given to the Rohingyas. Today, the Delhi government&rsquo;s education department issued strict orders that no Rohingya should be admitted to Delhi&rsquo;s government schools,&rdquo; she posted on X.
Aam Aadmi Party national convener Arvind Kejriwal posted on X, &ldquo;We will not allow the BJP to settle Rohingyas in Delhi under any circumstances. We will not let the BJP give the flats, jobs, or rights of Delhi&rsquo;s poor to the Rohingyas.&rdquo;

Prime Minister Narendra Modi to initiate the Ken-Betwa river linking project, benefiting over 65 lakh people, enhancing irrigation, drinking water, and tourism in Bundelkhand.

 PM Modi to Lay Foundation for Ken-Betwa River Link Project

Ken-Betwa is the largest irrigation project in the country, adopting an underground pressurised pipe irrigation system.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will on Wednesday lay the foundation stone of the Ken-Betwa river linking project, the first such initiative under the national river interlinking policy, at Khajuraho in Madhya Pradesh.
Nearly 44 lakh people in 10 districts of Madhya Pradesh and 21 lakh in Uttar Pradesh will get drinking water under the project, which is estimated to cost Rs 44,605 crore, MP Chief Minister Mohan Yadav said on Tuesday.
Nearly 7.18 lakh farmer families of 2,000 villages will be benefitted from the project, which will also generate 103 MW of hydropower and 27 MW of solar energy, he said.
"Prime Minister Modi is coming to Khajuraho in Chhatarpur district on December 25 to lay the foundation of this project which will change the image and destiny of Bundelkhand in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh," Yadav said.
The Ken-Betwa Link Project is a unique example of cooperation and coordination between the central government, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh, he said.
Prime Minister Modi has taken the initiative to realise the dream of former PM late Atal Bihari Vajpayee of the river linking campaign, Yadav added.
Through this project, farmers will get ample water for irrigation and it will also provide sufficient water for drinking and industrial uses.
Along with the economic and social development of the area, tourism will also be promoted and new employment opportunities will be created. The situation of groundwater in the drought-hit Bundelkhand region will also improve, the CM said.
Yadav said Ken-Betwa is the largest irrigation project in the country, adopting an underground pressurised pipe irrigation system.
Under the project, a 77-metre high and 2.13 kilometres long Daudhan dam and two tunnels (upper level 1.9 km and lower level 1.1 km) will be constructed on the Ken river in the Panna Tiger Reserve.
The dam will store 2,853 million cubic metres of water, the chief minister said.
The surplus Ken water will be transferred to the Betwa river through the 221-km-long link canal from Daudhan dam, providing irrigation and drinking water facilities in both the states, he said.
With the project, 8.11 lakh hectare area can be irrigated in 2,000 villages of 10 districts - Panna, Damoh, Chhatarpur, Tikamgarh, Niwari, Sagar, Raisen, Vidisha, Shivpuri and Datia. Nearly seven lakh farmer families will be benefitted from this, the chief minister said.
The Ken-Betwa project will provide an annual irrigation facility in 59,000 hectare area in Uttar Pradesh and stabilisation of the existing irrigation in 1.92 lakh-hectare area, which will provide irrigation facilities in Mahoba, Jhansi, Lalitpur and Banda districts of UP, he said.
The project also includes the work of saving the historical Chandela era heritage ponds in Chhatarpur, Tikamgarh and Niwari districts of MP, where water can be stored during the rainy season.
The Daudhan reservoir will provide drinking water to wild animals in the Panna Tiger Reserve throughout the year, improve the forest ecosystem and bring relief to UP's Banda district from the flood menace, Yadav said.
The water crisis prevalent in the Bundelkhand region will end and migration for employment will also be checked, he said.
A tripartite Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed on March 22, 2021 by the chief ministers of MP, UP and the Union Jal Shakti minister in the presence of PM Modi for the implementation of the project.

Fresh snowfall in higher reaches of Kashmir

Kashmir is currently under the grip of 'Chillai-Kalan' - considered the harshest period of winter - which started on December 21.

The higher reaches of Kashmir received fresh snowfall on Tuesday as the cold wave conditions persisted across the valley and the minimum temperature plummeted several degrees below the freezing point, officials said.
They said light snowfall was recorded last night in the tourist resort of Sonamarg and a few other areas in the higher reaches of the valley.
The fall in mercury led to the freezing of water supply lines even as a thin layer of ice covered the surface of several water bodies.
Kashmir is experiencing intense cold conditions, with the maximum temperature in Srinagar on Monday settling over six degrees below normal for this time of the season.
The city recorded a maximum temperature of 2.8 degrees Celsius on Monday as the day temperature remained below the normal across the valley.
The bone-chilling cold continued throughout Monday night as well the minimum temperatures also settled below normal.
Srinagar recorded a low of minus 6.6 degrees Celsius on Monday night -- down three degrees from the previous night, the meteorological department said.
Pahalgam, the base camp for the annual Amarnath Yatra in south Kashmir, registered a minimum temperature of minus 7.8 degrees Celsius, down from the previous night's minus 5 degrees Celsius, it said.
The night temperature in Gulmarg, a tourist resort town known for skiing activities in north Kashmir, settled at a low of minus 7.4 degrees Celsius -- almost three degrees down from minus 4.8 degrees Celsius the previous night, the department added.
Qazigund, the gateway town to Kashmir, logged a minimum temperature of minus 6.2 degrees Celsius, while Konibal, a hamlet in the Pampore area, was the coldest recorded place in the valley at minus 8.5 degrees Celsius, it said.
Kupwara, in north Kashmir, and Kokernag, in south Kashmir, registered a low of minus 6.4 degrees Celsius.
The meteorological department has predicted a dip of two to three degrees in the minimum temperatures over the next few days till December 26.
There is a possibility of light snowfall over the higher reaches towards the later afternoon of December 27 till the forenoon the next day, the Met Office said.
While the weather would stay mainly dry on December 29 and 30, light snowfall is possible in the isolated higher reaches on New Year's Eve, and light snowfall could take place at isolated to scattered places in Kashmir from January 1-3.
Kashmir is currently under the grip of 'Chillai-Kalan' - considered the harshest period of winter - which started on December 21.
During the 40 days of Chillai-Kalan, the chances of snowfall are most frequent and maximum and the temperature drops considerably.
It ends on January 30 next year, but the cold wave continues even after that in the valley. The 40 days are followed by a 20-day 'Chillai-Khurd' (small cold) and a 10-day 'Chillai-Bachha' (baby cold).

According to a report by PTI, the airline clarified that sufficient food and liquor were available throughout the flight. 

Liquor Stock Allegedly Depleted on Air India Express’ Inaugural Surat-Bangkok Flight

According to a report by PTI, the airline clarified that sufficient food and liquor were available throughout the flight.

Air India Express' inaugural flight from Surat, Gujarat, to Bangkok, Thailand, became the centre of attention on social media after passengers claimed they had consumed the entire stock of liquor and snacks during the four-hour journey. The flight, operated with a Boeing 737-8 aircraft on Friday, carried 175 passengers and six crew members, marking the first-ever direct air connection between Surat and Bangkok.
Viral Social Media Claims
Videos and posts on X (formerly Twitter) showed empty liquor bottles and happy passengers, with many joking about the &ldquo;spirited&rdquo; start to the service. One viral post read, &ldquo;Air India&rsquo;s first flight from Surat to Bangkok received 98% passenger occupancy on the first day. Passengers finished their stock of whiskey and beer&hellip; drank 15 litres of alcohol worth more than ₹1.8 lakh in a 4-hour journey.&rdquo;
Surprisingly, the incident sparked intrigue due to Gujarat&rsquo;s prohibition laws, which strictly limit alcohol consumption in the state.
Airline Denies Liquor Shortage
Contrary to the claims, Air India Express officials dismissed the allegations of running out of stock.
According to a report by PTI, the airline clarified that sufficient food and liquor were available throughout the flight. Officials explained that passengers are typically served no more than 100 ml of alcohol each and emphasized that the social media claims were exaggerated.
Alcohol Pricing and Options Onboard
The airline offers a limited selection of liquor, priced as follows:
<ul>
<li>Chivas Regal (50 ml): ₹600</li>
<li>Red Label, Bacardi White Rum, Beefeater Gin (50 ml each): ₹400</li>
<li>Bira Lager (330 ml): ₹400</li>
</ul>
Passengers can also purchase food onboard or pre-book meals in advance.
Gujarat's Alcohol Prohibition and Recent Changes
The Surat-Bangkok flight adhered to international aviation norms, allowing alcohol service onboard, despite Gujarat&rsquo;s prohibition laws.
Since 1960, the state has prohibited the sale and consumption of alcohol. However, in early 2024, limited alcohol consumption was permitted within designated &ldquo;wine and dine&rdquo; zones in Gujarat International Finance Tec-City (GIFT City), Gandhinagar. Residents above 21 years of age can now obtain annual liquor permits for ₹1,000.
Passenger Experience Highlights
The incident reflects the challenges of managing high expectations and varying passenger behaviours in economy class. As Air India continues to expand its network, this story underscores the importance of managing passenger satisfaction and ensuring smooth operations onboard.

The findings, published in The Lancet Regional Health Southeast Asia, showed a "significant improvement in timely initiation of cancer treatment as a result of the introduction of PM-JAY".

Study finds enrolling in Ayushman Bharat Scheme increased access to timely start of cancer treatment

The findings, published in The Lancet Regional Health Southeast Asia, showed a "significant improvement in timely initiation of cancer treatment as a result of the introduction of PM-JAY".

Enrolling under the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY) -- India's national health insurance program -- increased access to timely initiation of cancer treatment by 33 per cent, a study has found.
Researchers, including those from the Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER), Chandigarh, also found that under the scheme, patients diagnosed with cancer after 2018, when the program was launched, were at a 36 per cent higher chance of timely initiation of treatment within 30 days, compared to those diagnosed between 1995 and 2017.
The findings, published in The Lancet Regional Health Southeast Asia, showed a "significant improvement in timely initiation of cancer treatment as a result of the introduction of PM-JAY".
The researchers analysed responses of almost 6,700 cancer patients, recruited between October 2020 and March 2022, from "selected seven leading cancer care hospitals" across six states, such as Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and Delhi.
The patients were interviewed on aspects, including health care costs and quality of life, as part of the protocol 'National Cancer Database for Cost and Quality of Life', developed in 2018 and described in a study published in the British Medical Journal Open.
Overall, the typical duration before initiating cancer treatment following diagnosis was found to be 20 days.
The duration was observed to be highest among patients with head and neck cancer (29 days), followed by that observed among breast cancer patients (25 days) and lowest among patients with haematological cancers (11 days), the researchers found.
They also found an overall declining trend in delays in the time taken before starting cancer treatment over the years, and the "slope of this decreasing trend was notably higher among patients availing benefits under AB PM-JAY".
This suggested a higher chance of timely treatment initiation for cancer patients as a result of enrolment, the authors said and attributed it to the "expansion of cancer care services under national flagship insurance program".
The team also found lower chances of delays in timely treatment initiation among those having a higher income, compared to those having a lower income.
This was the "first-ever study to cover all types of cancer patients in a nationally representative sample", according to the authors.
"Our study recommends expanding AB PM-JAY cancer packages to include cost-effective treatments, increasing population coverage under screening programs and promoting e-RUPI to reduce financial constraints associated with diagnostic services to address delayed treatment initiation due to unknown cancer stages," they wrote.

Allu Arjun Questioned Over Stampede at 'Pushpa-2' Screening

A 35-year-old woman died during the stampede at the Sandhya Theatre in Hyderabad on December 4 and her eight-year-old son was hospitalised.

Telugu actor Allu Arjun was on Tuesday grilled by police for over three hours when he appeared before them for questioning in connection with the death of a woman in a stampede during the screening of 'Pushpa-2' in Hyderabad on December 4.
Arjun reached the Chikkadpally police station accompanied by his father Allu Aravind and lawyers a little after 11 AM and the questioning was held till 2.45 PM. A police team led by Central Zone DCP Akshansh Yadav questioned the actor.
Tight security arrangements were made at the Chikkadpally police station in view of the star's appearance. Heavy police deployment was made, while police also imposed restrictions on traffic on the roads leading to the police station.
The actor was issued a notice on December 23 to appear before the police at 11 AM today.
The police, in their notice for the appearance of Allu Arjun, said his presence is essential before the SHO of Chikkadpally police station to elicit answers about the stampede incident and if necessary for visiting the scene of offence, in order to ascertain the facts.
Earlier in the day, security was stepped up at his residence at posh Jubilee Hills in Hyderabad and the actor waved to media before leaving for the police station. Allu Arjun has earlier said he would cooperate with the investigation.
The notice to Allu Arjun on December 23 came a day after police commissioner C V Anand released a video showing the sequence of events at the theatre. A 35-year-old woman died during the stampede at the Sandhya Theatre in Hyderabad on December 4 and her eight-year-old son was hospitalised.

Driver to be questioned by SIT after deadly LPG tanker explosion

The container truck collided with the tanker while taking a U-turn on the Jaipur-Ajmer highway, breaking its outlet nozzles which released a white cloud of gas.

The driver of an LPG tanker that was involved in an explosion in Jaipur last week which claimed 13 lives has appeared before police and will be questioned by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the case, a senior official said on Tuesday.
The driver, Jaiveer (40), a resident of Mathura in Uttar Pradesh, managed to get out of the tanker in time after sensing the impact of the collision, which broke the tanker's outlet nozzles.
According to police, Jaiveer called Delhi-based tanker owner Anil Panwar after the incident and then switched off his phone.
"We cannot blame the tanker driver immediately as the container truck driver had hit his vehicle. He saw that the tanker's nozzles had broken and realised that there could be an explosion as other drivers were turning on the ignition of their vehicles. So, he fled to save his life," said Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) Amit Kumar.
An FIR was registered in the matter on December 20, the day the explosion took place, and now the tanker driver is being questioned. The driver of the container truck which rammed into the tanker died in the explosion, he said.
Jaiveer appeared before police on Monday. The SIT probing the case will question Jaiveer, Panwar and the tanker company about the vehicle's condition and the driver's employment history, he added.
The DCP said Jaiveer was among the nine drivers present at the accident scene who managed to escape.
The container truck collided with the tanker while taking a U-turn on the Jaipur-Ajmer highway, breaking its outlet nozzles which released a white cloud of gas.
Within minutes, the gas ignited and a massive ball of fire engulfed over 30 vehicles stuck in the jam.
More than two dozen people were injured in the accident and 23 are undergoing treatment at Sawai Man Singh (SMS) Hospital.
Police have registered a case under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS), including rash and negligent driving, causing death by negligent act, and causing hurt by endangering life.
The Rajasthan High Court has taken suo motu cognisance of the matter and sought replies from the state government and the Centre. It will hear the matter on January 10, 2025.

Congress files plea in Supreme Court against amendments to election rules

AICC general secretary Jairam Ramesh, who filed the petition, said, &ldquo;The integrity of the electoral process is fast eroding. Hopefully, the Supreme Court will help restore it.&rdquo;

The Congress on Tuesday filed a writ petition in the Supreme Court challenging the recent amendments to the Conduct of Election Rules, 1961 and expressed hope that the apex court will help restore the &ldquo;fast eroding&rdquo; integrity of the electoral process.
The government has tweaked an election rule to prevent public inspection of certain electronic documents such as CCTV cameras and webcasting footage as well as video recordings of candidates to prevent their misuse.
AICC general secretary Jairam Ramesh, who filed the petition, said, &ldquo;The integrity of the electoral process is fast eroding. Hopefully, the Supreme Court will help restore it.&rdquo;
&ldquo;A writ has just been filed in the Supreme Court challenging the recent amendments to the Conduct of Election Rules, 1961,&rdquo; he said in a post on X. Ramesh said the Election Commission, a Constitutional body charged with the conduct of free and fair elections cannot be allowed to unilaterally, and without public consultation, amend such a vital law in such a brazen manner.
&ldquo;This is especially true when that amendment does away with public access to essential information that makes the electoral process more transparent and accountable,&rdquo; he said.
Based on the recommendation of the Election Commission of India, the Union law ministry on Friday amended Rule 93(2)(a) of the Conduct of Election Rules, 1961, to restrict the type of &ldquo;papers&rdquo; or documents open to public inspection.
