Haryana Parties Rally Behind Vinesh Phogat After Paris Olympics Disappointment

Introduction

As the Haryana state elections approach, political parties are rallying in support of wrestler Vinesh Phogat, who faced a significant setback after being disqualified from the final bout at the Paris Olympics. The state is set to go to polls within a few months, and leaders are keen to align themselves with the popular athlete.

Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini’s Support

On Thursday, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini of the BJP announced that Vinesh Phogat would be honored at par with a bronze medalist, despite her disqualification. “Haryana’s courageous daughter Vinesh Phogat gave a brilliant performance in the Olympics and reached the finals. She might not have been able to contest the final match, but she is a champion for all of us. Our government will honor and welcome her the same as we do for a medallist,” Saini declared on X (formerly Twitter).

Under the government’s sports policy, Olympic gold medalists receive Rs 6 crore, silver medalists get Rs 4 crore, and bronze medal winners are awarded Rs 2.5 crore. Saini’s decision ensures Phogat will receive the same recognition and benefits as a bronze medal winner.

Opposition’s Take

Leader of the Opposition and former CM Bhupinder Singh Hooda of the Congress party suggested that Phogat should be honored at par with a gold medalist. Hooda also mentioned that if he had sufficient numbers in the Assembly, he would have nominated Phogat for the Rajya Sabha. Currently, the BJP holds a majority in the Assembly, making it likely that their candidate will win the upcoming Rajya Sabha seat election.

AAP’s Early Outreach

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, representing the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), was the first political leader to visit Phogat’s village in Charkhi Dadri after her disqualification. Mann criticized the BJP, suggesting a conspiracy behind Phogat’s disqualification and called for intervention from Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Congress and Wrestler Protests

The Congress party has been vocal about supporting the wrestlers' protests against former wrestling federation chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh of the BJP. Vinesh Phogat was a prominent figure in these protests, and Congress leaders have stood with the wrestlers. Recently, the Congress inducted a former woman coach who accused ex-sports minister Sandeep Singh of sexual harassment, further showcasing their stance on supporting athletes and women’s rights.

Conclusion

As the Haryana elections draw near, political parties are leveraging their support for Vinesh Phogat to resonate with the electorate. The widespread backing for Phogat reflects her influence and the broader political strategies at play in the state.

[ad_1] GG News Bureau New Delhi, 16 Jan: As the nomination process for the upcoming Delhi Assembly Elections is underway, BJP candidate from New Delhi, Parvesh Sahib Verma, has attracted significant attention following the disclosure of a massive surge in his assets. According to the affidavit filed by Verma, his assets have risen by over Rs 100 crore in the past five years, a figure that has raised eyebrows among political observers. The affidavit, available with the Election Commission, shows that Verma’s total assets increased from Rs 15.52 crore in 2019 to Rs 115.62 crore in 2025. Notably, his movable assets, which stood at Rs 3.2 crore in 2019, have now grown to Rs 96.50 crore, reflecting a substantial increase during the five-year period. The New Delhi constituency, one of the most high-profile in the capital, is witnessing a triangular contest this time. In the fray are Verma of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Arvind Kejriwal, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo and former Chief Minister of Delhi, and Sandeep Dikshit from Congress, the son of former Delhi CM Sheila Dikshit. It is a significant race as both Verma and Dikshit are scions of former Delhi Chief Ministers, with Verma being the son of Sahib Singh Verma, a former BJP leader and Chief Minister of Delhi. Meanwhile, Parvesh Verma’s campaign has been marred by controversy. On Wednesday, the Delhi Police registered an FIR against Verma for allegedly violating the Model Code of Conduct (MCC). The FIR was filed after an incident in which Verma reportedly distributed shoes to sanitation workers in the Valmiki colony in the Mandir Marg Police Station area, an act that was seen as a violation of MCC guidelines. The Election Commission had intervened, prompting the Mandir Marg SHO to lodge the FIR. Verma, however, defended his actions, claiming he only honored sanitation workers by placing shoes on their feet at a temple and did not distribute any footwear. Verma formally filed his nomination for the New Delhi seat on Wednesday, following prayers at the Gauri Shankar temple in Chandni Chowk and the Valmiki temple. He will now face the formidable challenge posed by AAP’s Arvind Kejriwal, who has been the Chief Minister of Delhi for two consecutive terms, and Congress’s Sandeep Dikshit in the February 5 elections.   The post BJP Candidate Parvesh Verma’s Assets Surge by Over Rs 100 Crore Ahead of Delhi Assembly Polls appeared first on Global Governance News- Asia's First Bilingual News portal for Global News and Updates.

Locals, families mourn Army officers killed in encounter with terrorists in J&K's Anantnag

Three Army personnel, including the colonel and the major, and a deputy superintendent of the Jammu and Kashmir Police were killed in the gunfight with terrorists in Anantnag.

CHANDIGARH: Scores of people turned up on Thursday at the residences of Colonel Manpreet Singh and Major Ashish Dhonchak, killed in a gunfight with terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir’s Anantnag, to mourn the loss, with some saying the Army should give a befitting reply to the ultras for the cowardly act.

A number of villagers turned up at the houses of Singh (in Mohali’s Mullanpur) and Dhonchak (in Panipat) in the morning.

The families of the two slain Army officers were inconsolable.

Officials said the bodies of the two deceased officers have been brought to the Army’s 92 Base Hospital in Srinagar.

The mortal remains of the two are expected to reach their respective places by the evening or early next morning, the family members said.

They said Singh’s wife, a school teacher in Panchkula district, was given the news of her husband’s death in the morning, after being told on Wednesday that he was seriously injured.

A third-generation soldier, Singh has also left behind a two-year-old daughter and a six-year-old son.

Dhonchak’s family includes his wife, a two-year-old daughter and three sisters.

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and his Haryana counterpart Manohar Lal Khattar took to X and paid tributes to the slain officers.

Those who turned up to express grief and be with the families in this tragic hour said the Army should give a befitting reply to the terrorists.

“Everyone knows that Pakistan has waged a proxy war. Our Army should give a befitting reply once and for all, so that no mother has to mourn the loss of her son, no sister loses her brother again in this manner, no wife loses her husband and no child loses its father,” an elderly man who lives in Dhonchak’s neighbourhood told reporters in Panipat.

In Mullanpur, Singh’s wailing mother Manjit Kaur said, “The government should eliminate terrorists. It should take a tough decision now.”

“My colonel, my son has been killed,” she said.

Kaur said she spoke to her son on Sunday afternoon and he had told her that he would soon come home on leave.

She said he was around 40 years of age and she has lost him after losing his father, also an ex-serviceman, in 2014.

Singh’s sister said she spoke to him on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan recently.

He had only a few months left for his present tenure in his current place of posting, she said with tears rolling down her eyes.

Manpreet Singh’s uncle Harmel Singh said his nephew was always keen to join the Army.

“We are proud of his supreme sacrifice for the nation. He was a brave officer. In another encounter earlier, he had neutralised two terrorists,” he said.

The slain colonel’s brother Sandeep said the former had visited home in January for a week.

He had said he would again come home in December, he said.

While Dhonchak’s family lives in Panipat’s Sector 7, his native village is Binjhol in Panipat district.

His family said he was supposed to come home on leave next month.

Manpreet Singh’s in-laws live in Panchkula’s Sector 26.

His wife’s brother told reporters in Panchkula that they received information of the tragedy on Wednesday evening.

However, Singh’s wife was informed about it only on Thursday morning, he said.

Holding on to his two-year-old granddaughter Bani, Singh’s father-in-law Jagdev told reporters that the slain officer had received the Sena Medal last year.

Harmel Singh told reporters that since childhood, the deceased officer had shown leadership qualities.

“He was always smiling and ready to help others,” he said.

Another relative of the slain colonel said they spoke to him on Wednesday morning and never knew that this would be their last conversation with him.

A relative of Dhonchak told reporters in Panipat that he sacrificed his life for the sake of the country.

His brother Ashish said he was lucky to have him as his elder brother.

Ashish was to shift to a new house in Panipat in October.

The family got the house built as it was living in a rented accommodation.

Three Army personnel, including the colonel and the major, and a deputy superintendent of the Jammu and Kashmir Police were killed in the gunfight with terrorists in the higher reaches of the Kokorenag area in the valley.

Singh, the commanding officer of 19 Rashtriya Rifles, Dhonchak and Deputy Superintendent of Police Humayun Bhat were critically injured in the gunfight that ensued in the Garol area of Anantnag district in the morning hours of Wednesday.

The officers succumbed to their injuries during treatment.
