Homeless NDA Ministers

IMC WEB DESK NEW DELHI: Indian politics defines transition. Elections saw Modi as the PM heading NDA-led coalition government. Soon after, former Union Ministers asked to vacate their designated homes

NDA goes through changes

Indian politics witnessed weighty changes in 2024. On 7th June 2024, Narendra Modi confirmed the support of 293 MPs to Droupadi Murmu, the President of India. This marked Modi’s third term as Prime Minister and his first-time heading NDA-led coalition government with the Telugu Desam Party of Andhra Pradesh and Janata Dal (United) of Bihar emerging as two primary alliances.

A noticeable step taken by the Directorate of Estates (DoE) under the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) surely makes up for a sweeping swap!

DoE served a notice to few of the former Union Ministers in Indian Politics to vacate their official accommodation in Delhi’s Lutyens’ by 10 July as requests for accommodation pour in from newly appointed ministers.

All Union ministers and ministers of state (MoS) in Indian politics are entitled to a ‘Type VIII’ bungalow in Delhi’s Lutyens’. Former ministers have to vacate such an accommodation when they lose their ministerial berth, according to the DoE rules.

NDA-led coalition government have removed thirty-seven formers ministers in from Narendra Modi’s Union Council of Ministers. Indian politics stands synonymous to shifting gears.

Significant leaders in Indian politics namely Smriti Irani, Arjun Munda, R.K Singh, Niranjan Jyoti, Sanjeev Balyan, and Rajeev Chandrashekhar, lost in the recently concluded Lok Sabha elections. Others, such as Anurag Thakur, Narayan Rane, and Parshottam Rupala, won but did not get a ministerial berth this time. Some, such as Meenakshi Lekhi, did not get a ticket to contest the polls as the BJP replaced them with new faces. When the nation asks what is politics, well this is the face of real Indian Politics.

The DoE notice will be followed by a show cause notice eventually leading to an eviction notice.

Indian politics is often referred as the dance of democracy! While few ministers might still be showing unwillingness to vacate, there are others who have been upfront in changing their designated accommodation.

Former Education minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank, who was served with an eviction notice by the Directorate of Estates recently, has also conveyed that he would be vacating the 27, Safdarjung Road bungalow.

Lutyens-Landmark in Indian Politics

Spread across an area of 23.60sqkm, The Lutyens Bungalow Zone is home to the luminaries of Indian Politics as well as high-net-worth individuals with about 3000 government-owned bungalows.

Serving NDA Union ministers were eligible for accommodation as allotted by the DoE. House committees of the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha secretariats are the competent authorities to allot accommodation to MPs.

Members are entitled to a licence-fee free flat or hostel accommodation throughout their term of office.

Members are entitled to water supply without payment of charges up to 4000 kl per annum. They are eligible for electricity up to 50,000 units (25,000 units measure on light meter and 25,000 units on power meter or pooled together) per annum beginning from January 1 every year.

Other facilities include- washing of sofa covers and curtains every three months. Furniture within the monetary ceiling of Rs 60,000 in respect of durable furniture.

They are also allowed for a 25 per cent remission in the rent on account of any improvement or addition made to it or any additional service provided thereto by way of furniture, electrical equipment and other services.

Editor’s Note

Around 50 former union ministers and MPs from the last Lok Sabha have been sent notice by DoE to vacate their official accommodation. Home is always closest to ones heart and when it is in the poshest locality of the capital and earned through valid eligibility, the address caries a myriad of meaning for the resident. Apparently it is just might be a regular governmental procedure but delving deep, slight feeling uprootedness might haunt souls of Indian politics.

Kejriwal Expresses Gratitude to Rahul and Kharge for Backing AAP on Delhi Services Bill

The Delhi Services Bill took center stage as Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal extended his heartfelt appreciation to Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge and MP Rahul Gandhi. Their resolute support for the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) against the GNCTD (Amendment) Bill, 2023, was acknowledged by Kejriwal with gratitude.

In individual letters addressed to Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi, Kejriwal conveyed his thanks on behalf of Delhi's populace, numbering two crore. He lauded their party's stance in opposing and voting against the GNCTD (Amendment) Bill, 2023. Kejriwal's letters carried his profound respect for the Congress leaders' commitment to safeguarding the rights of Delhi's citizens both within the Parliament's chambers and beyond.

Kejriwal stated, "I would like to place on record the heartfelt appreciation for championing the rights of the people of Delhi inside as well as outside the Parliament. I am certain that your unflinching loyalty towards the principles of our Constitution will be remembered for decades."

The Delhi Chief Minister's remarks also hinted at his collaboration with the 'I.N.D.I.A' bloc, a coalition of 26 Opposition parties. He expressed eagerness for their continued support in the ongoing battle against elements that undermine the Constitution. Kejriwal's letters were in harmony with similar gestures extended to Nitish Kumar, Uddhav Thackeray, Mamta Banerjee, Sharad Pawar, MK Stalin, Hemant Soren, and KCR.

Notably, the Delhi Services Bill triumphed in the Rajya Sabha, garnering a significant victory for the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA). Securing 131 votes in favor, the bill surpassed the opposition coalition 'I.N.D.I.A,' which managed 102 votes against it. Following this outcome, Arvind Kejriwal passionately critiqued the Central government for their approach and interference in Delhi's governance.

Kejriwal's affinity for his role as 'Delhi ka beta' resonated as he highlighted the consistent support from the people, reinforcing his commitment to governance aligned with their aspirations. As the political landscape continues to evolve, the impact of collaborative efforts and the voice of the people remain integral to the fabric of India's democracy.

In the midst of the controversy surrounding a scene in Oppenheimer, where the titular character is depicted engaging in sexual activity while reciting verses from an ancient Sanskrit scripture, purportedly the Bhagavad Gita, Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut has stepped forward to praise Christopher Nolan’s biographical thriller film.

Taking to social media on Monday, Kangana lauded the movie as “Christopher Nolan’s best work so far” and expressed her admiration for the part in the film referencing Bhagavad Gita and Lord Vishnu. “Most important film of our time… I am so excited I just didn’t want it to end… It has everything I deeply love, I am passionate about physics and politics… For me, this was like a cinematic orgasm… beyond wonderful,” she noted while sharing a selfie video.

“The theme of the film is that when your nationalism rises, it precedes your religion; but when your humanity rises, it precedes your nationalism and you become a problem for the system. And the system that built you, starts disintegrating you. My favourite part is the reference to Srimad Bhagavad Gita and Lord Vishnu when he channelises his inner Vishnu. Go watch it… it’s a lovely film,” the Queen actor said in the video.

J Robert Oppenheimer, regarded as ‘the father of the atom bomb’, had learnt Sanskrit and was said to be influenced by the Bhagavad Gita. In the film, Oppenheimer, played by Cillian Murphy, is shown having sex with psychologist Jean Tatler (Florence Pugh) as she asks him to read a verse from what appears to be a Sanskrit book, whose title or cover is not visible.

The scene involving Gita in Oppenheimer had irked a section of social media users, who demanded the removal of the sequence from Christopher Nolan’s latest film.

Uday Mahurkar, information commissioner, Government of India, wrote an open letter to Nolan, terming the scene a “disturbing attack on Hinduism” and appealed to the director to remove the scene worldwide.

“We urge, on behalf of billion Hindus and the timeless tradition of lives being transformed by revered Geeta, to do all that is needed to uphold the dignity of their revered book and remove this scene from your film across the world. Should you choose to ignore this appeal it would be deemed as a deliberate assault on Indian civilisation. Eagerly await needful action (sic)” Mahurkar, founder of Save Culture Save India Foundation, wrote.

Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur has sought an explanation from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) on why it cleared the movie in its present form. According to sources, Thakur has demanded accountability from the CBFC, which functions under the aegis of the I&B Ministry, regarding clearing the movie with the controversial scene, which has hurt the sentiments of a section of the Hindu community.

The Dhaakad actor’s comments come a day after she locked horns with former Rajya Sabha MP Subramanian Swamy after the latter questioned her Y-plus security status. He tweeted, “The SPG knows, and has kept a register of her movements. I wonder why since it is no business of SPG to track Bollywood stars. In her case, on a special dispensation, she has a high level of security provided.”

Kangana replied, “I am not just a Bollywood star sir, I am also a very vocal and concerned citizen, I was the target of political malice in Maharashtra, at my expense nationalists could make a government here. I also spoke about tukde gang and strongly condemned Khalistani groups. I am also a filmmaker, writer and producer and my next production Emergency involves operation Bluestar… there is evident treat to my life hence I requested for extended security… Is there something wrong in this Sir?”'

Anil Ambani: A Glimpse into His Political Journey

Anil Ambani, widely recognised for his business acumen and contributions to India’s industrial growth, also dabbled in politics during his tenure as a Rajya Sabha member. Though his stint in the Upper House of Parliament was brief, it provided a unique insight into his views on governance, policy-making, and public service. Serving as a Rajya Sabha MP from 2004 to 2006, Ambani’s entry into the political arena added another dimension to his multifaceted persona.

Anil Ambani’s nomination to the Rajya Sabha in 2004 as an Independent candidate from Uttar Pradesh was a significant milestone in his career. Supported by the Samajwadi Party, his candidature reflected his growing influence beyond the corporate world. His election to the Rajya Sabha was not merely a personal achievement but a recognition of his potential to contribute to national policy-making, especially in infrastructure, economic growth, and technology.

Ambani’s political journey began during a transformative phase in Indian politics, with the country witnessing rapid economic liberalisation and global integration. His corporate experience and vision for India’s development made him a promising addition to the Rajya Sabha.

Although his tenure lasted only two years, Ambani’s time in the Rajya Sabha allowed him to advocate for reforms and policies aligned with his expertise. As a businessman, he brought a pragmatic perspective to discussions on economic policies, infrastructure development, and industrial growth.

One of his key areas of focus was the enhancement of public-private partnerships (PPPs) to accelerate infrastructure projects in India. Having spearheaded several large-scale projects in his corporate life, Ambani was vocal about the need for policy frameworks that encourage private sector participation in public development. His emphasis on modernising urban infrastructure, including metros and highways, stemmed from his belief that robust infrastructure is the backbone of a thriving economy.

Ambani also advocated for initiatives that could foster entrepreneurship and create employment opportunities. Recognising the untapped potential of India’s youth, he highlighted the importance of education and skill development in shaping the workforce of tomorrow.

Anil Ambani’s Rajya Sabha tenure coincided with a turbulent personal and professional life period. The much-publicised division of the Reliance empire between him and his elder brother Mukesh Ambani in 2005 demanded his attention, leaving little room to actively engage in politics. The complexities of managing a sprawling business empire, coupled with the challenges of navigating political dynamics, eventually led to his resignation from the Rajya Sabha in 2006.

Ambani’s resignation was attributed to his desire to focus on his corporate responsibilities, particularly during a critical juncture for the Reliance Group. While his political stint was short-lived, it underscored the challenges of balancing the demands of business and public service.

Though brief, Anil Ambani’s time in the Rajya Sabha highlighted his aspirations to contribute to national development beyond the corporate sphere. His focus on infrastructure, economic reforms, and public-private collaboration resonated with his professional expertise and vision for India’s progress.

Today, as Ambani continues to navigate the challenges and opportunities in his business ventures, his political stint remains a reminder of his willingness to step beyond his comfort zone and explore avenues for public service. It underscores his belief in the power of leadership, whether in the boardroom or the corridors of Parliament, to drive meaningful change.

Saina Nehwal Steals the Show at Chiripal Foundation Day

In a splendid celebration of sport and community spirit, Chiripal Group's Foundation Day on October 18, 2024, stood out not just for its festive atmosphere but for the inspirational presence of badminton icon Saina Nehwal. Held at the spacious campus of Shanti Business School in Ahmedabad, the event served dual purposes—a ceremonial acknowledgment of corporate milestones and a robust conclusion to the Chiripal Sports Fest 2024.

The sports fest, a multi-disciplinary event featuring competitions ranging from badminton to chess, underscored Chiripal's commitment to fostering a culture of health, teamwork, and resilience among its employees. The inclusion of Saina Nehwal as the chief guest added a significant layer of inspiration, connecting the themes of professional excellence and personal endeavor.

The day was further dignified by the presence of Rajya Sabha MP Narhari Amin and all the Chiripal Group promoters—Vedprakash Chiripal, Jyotiprakash Chiripal, Jaiprakash Chiripal, Brijmohan Chiripal, Deepak Chiripal, Vishal Chiripal, Ronak Chiripal, and Vansh Chiripal—who shared the stage.

Nehwal, whose achievements on the global stage have inspired a generation of athletes, shared insights from her journey in professional badminton. With stories of her early beginnings and the challenges she faced, she emphasized the critical importance of support systems, both familial and professional, in nurturing sporting talent. Her message resonated deeply with the audience, highlighting the parallels between sports and business in terms of dedication, strategy, and mental strength.

Ronak Chiripal reflected on the company's growth and future ambitions. The speech intertwined the group's history of innovation and resilience with a forward-looking vision that includes sustainable practices and continuous learning, mirroring the discipline sports require.

The event also featured a personal interaction segment where Nehwal engaged with employees more intimately, sharing advice and laughter, which brought a sense of closeness and community to the gathering. This interaction was not just about celebrating achievements but also about encouraging a healthy, balanced, and ambitious approach to both professional and personal life.

Conclusion:

As the event concluded, it was clear that the Chiripal Foundation Day was about more than commemoration—it was a reaffirmation of the group's ethos, "Empowering to achieve more," embodied by Nehwal’s participation and the spirit of the Sports Fest. Through this event, Chiripal Group reiterated its commitment to nurturing talent and championing growth, making it a memorable day of celebration and motivation.

[ad_1] Paromita Das GG News Bureau New Delhi, 13th November. Bharat’s democratic landscape is abuzz as the first phase of assembly elections in Jharkhand, a high-stakes by-election in Kerala’s Wayanad, and 33 bypolls across 11 states are set to begin. With significant candidates and strategic shifts, the outcome of these elections will offer crucial insights into party strengths, voter sentiments, and the political momentum leading up to the 2024 general elections. Jharkhand’s Assembly Elections: A Battle of Regional Powerhouses Jharkhand, a state often marked by political volatility, begins its two-phase assembly election on November 13, with 43 constituencies in contention. The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is determined to reclaim power from the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-led coalition. Among the prominent candidates are former Chief Minister and BJP candidate Champai Soren, Congress leaders Ajoy Kumar and Banna Gupta, and JMM’s Rajya Sabha MP Mahua Maji, highlighting the fierce competition between established leaders. The stakes are high in constituencies like Seraikella, where Champai Soren seeks to regain influence, and in Jamshedpur East, where Congress’s Ajoy Kumar faces Purnima Das Sahu, who carries the legacy of former Chief Minister Raghubar Das. In Jamshedpur West, Congress leader Banna Gupta is pitted against JD(U) leader Saryu Roy, a politician who famously defeated Raghubar Das in the previous election. This race will be a litmus test for the BJP, which is vying to reassert itself after a challenging political tenure in Jharkhand. Security arrangements are extensive, with 200 companies of Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) deployed to ensure smooth polling. Sensitive booths across 31 constituencies have been flagged, with special monitoring to safeguard the integrity of the electoral process. Jharkhand has a history of closely contested elections, and the outcomes here will likely impact the regional political landscape profoundly. Wayanad’s Parliamentary Bypoll: Priyanka Gandhi’s Debut in Rahul Gandhi’s Stronghold The Wayanad parliamentary bypoll in Kerala is capturing national attention as Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra makes her electoral debut from a seat that has traditionally been a Congress bastion. Priyanka’s candidacy follows her brother Rahul Gandhi’s decision to retain his Raebareli seat, leaving Wayanad open for new leadership. Rahul, the current Leader of Opposition, has been actively campaigning in support of his sister, signaling Congress’s intention to solidify its foothold in Kerala. Priyanka Gandhi faces a formidable lineup, including Satyan Mokeri of the Left Democratic Front (LDF) and Navya Haridas of the BJP. Kerala remains a challenging landscape for the BJP, where the Congress and Left Front traditionally dominate. However, with national support and Priyanka’s campaign efforts, Congress is determined to retain its grip on Wayanad, an outcome that would reinforce its political base in South Bharat. Bypolls Across 11 States: Testing Grounds for National and Regional Parties Alongside Jharkhand and Wayanad, by-elections are set to take place in 33 assembly seats across 11 states, including key constituencies in Rajasthan, West Bengal, and Assam. These bypolls provide valuable testing grounds for both national and regional parties, revealing voter sentiment ahead of crucial assembly elections in 2024. In Rajasthan, where seven assembly seats are up for grabs, the by-elections will indicate whether the Congress-led state government retains public favor amid criticisms over governance issues. In West Bengal, where six seats are contested, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) is eager to reaffirm its dominance despite facing resistance from the BJP, which has made significant gains in the state over recent years. Assam’s five bypoll seats similarly serve as an important battleground, with both BJP and Congress vying for influence in the region. The outcome of these by-elections

holds significant implications not only for individual states but also for the broader political landscape. The BJP is keen to demonstrate its ability to retain and expand its voter base, while Congress is working to stage a comeback in regions where it has seen dwindling support. Key Issues and Challenges Shaping the Election The assembly elections and bypolls touch on diverse issues that reflect the unique socio-political landscape of each region. In Jharkhand, the primary issues include unemployment, development, and resource allocation, with tribal representation and local economic conditions heavily influencing voter decisions. Kerala’s Wayanad election resonates with concerns over environmental protection, sustainable development, and educational infrastructure, issues that Priyanka Gandhi has vowed to address in her campaign. In Rajasthan and West Bengal, governance effectiveness and regional autonomy are focal points, particularly in light of each state’s distinct political dynamics. For BJP and Congress alike, these elections are a chance to demonstrate their commitment to local development and to make inroads in states dominated by regional players. Security and Infrastructure: Ensuring a Smooth Polling Process Given the scale of these elections, authorities have implemented robust security measures, especially in regions deemed sensitive. In Jharkhand, for instance, returning officers have ensured that all polling stations are equipped with basic facilities, including drinking water, sanitation, and webcasting for transparency. CAPF deployments at sensitive booths in Jharkhand and tight security measures in other states underscore the Election Commission’s commitment to maintaining order and fairness. Conclusion: A Glimpse into Bharat’s Political Future As voters cast their ballots in Jharkhand, Wayanad, and bypolls across Bharat, these elections serve as a snapshot of the nation’s political sentiments. The results will gauge the strength of the BJP, which seeks to retain influence, and the Congress, which is making strategic moves to reclaim its presence. Priyanka Gandhi’s debut in Wayanad represents Congress’s focus on consolidating its base, while Jharkhand’s assembly polls will reveal whether regional alliances or national parties hold sway. The by-elections across multiple states will also offer early indicators of voter alignment ahead of 2024, where national security, economic growth, and state governance will be central campaign issues. The stakes are high, and these elections not only highlight the dynamic nature of Bharat’s democracy but also underscore the evolving challenges and opportunities faced by both national and regional parties.   The post Wayanad to Jharkhand: Priyanka’s Debut and Fierce Assembly Bypolls Set the Stage for Bharat’s Future appeared first on Global Governance News- Asia's First Bilingual News portal for Global News and Updates.
