Question against the sarcasm of Modi's revdy culture
This issue is in discussion as Narendra Modi mentioned Revadi again in handing over housing to the beneficiaries of PA Awas Yojana of Madhya Pradesh. Modi said that tax payers will be happy if their hard earned money is not spent on dirty politics.
Modi has indirectly hit out at Arvid Kejriwal who is currently announcing the provision of services including free electricity in Gujarat. BJP leaders have supported Modi's words but people are questioning on social media. People are asking that the central government has now extended the free food grain Scheme for three months, is it called Revdi or not? People are also questioning the promises made by BJP in Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat including free gas cylinders, bus travel.
Some people are questioning that, in the name of helping the poor, it does not seem wrong that the central government is looting the country's treasury, but why is there any objection to helping the middle class?
BJP furious as AAP turns to old pension scheme
By announcing the implementation of the old pension scheme in Punjab from Diwali, Kejriwal has spoiled the BJP's situation. Currently, Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat are two important states for the BJP. In these two states, the issue of old pension scheme has become acute.
Government employees are demanding re-implementation of old pension scheme but BJP is not ready for it. Now when Kejriwal comes to power in both the states, announcing to implement the old pension scheme immediately, the BJP is facing a threat that the government employees will switch to AAP.
In Himachal Pradesh, Chief Minister Jairam Thakur himself has become involved in the issue of Aam Aadmi Party's old pension scheme announcement. Thakur claimed that AAP is making false promises as it is the central government's job to approve the old pension scheme. The old pension scheme cannot be implemented without the approval of the central government. Against this, people are asking that, if you have a government at the centre, why are you not implementing it?
Conversion of Dalits in Rajasthan too after Delhi
The controversy that ten thousand Dalits have left Hinduism and adopted Buddhism in Delhi has not subsided, while 250 Dalit families have left Hinduism and adopted Buddhism in the twelfth district of Rajasthan. To express their anger against the beatings by the people of the upper caste, the Dalit families announced their abandonment of Hinduism by immersing the idols and photos of gods and goddesses from their homes in the Bethli river.
15 days ago in Baran district, in a fight over performing aarti of Mother Durga, upper castes beat people of the Dalit community. Dalit families have demanded justice from the President, but no action has been taken against the accused perpetrators of assault. Because of this, there is a lot of outrage among the Dalits. On October 5 in Bhulon village, Dalit youths Rajendra and Ramhet Erwal were attacked when they organized Maa Durga's aarti.
BJP is also silent on this issue. If the BJP takes the side of the Dalits, it is afraid that it will not get the upper caste votes, so it is sitting quietly.
Print the photo of Netaji not Gandhiji on the notes
Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha has struck a new note by demanding to print Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose's photo instead of Mahatma Gandhi on Indian rupee notes. Following this announcement, political accusations have also started. Allegations have started that BJP is conspiring to destroy the name of Gandhiji by leading the Mahasabha.
The Hindu Mahasabha claims that Netaji's contribution to the freedom movement was no less than the father of the nation, Mahatma Gandhi, so Gandhiji's picture should be removed from the currency notes and Netaji's picture should be inserted.
The Trinamool Congress and the Congress have alleged that the BJP is behind this demand and that the BJP should stop the politics of division in Bengal. Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said that Gandhiji's ideals are being killed every day and this demand has been made as a part of it.
However, Mahasabha said that leader Goswami claims that he has nothing to do with BJP. Rather Hindu Bengalis are being attacked and even BJP is not able to protect them.
BJP's situation worsened due to the demand of separate state
BJP's situation has worsened with Chief Minister Neifu Rio supporting the demand for a separate frontier Nagaland state in Nagaland. The BJP is against the demand, while Rio, who runs the government with their support, has publicly said there is nothing wrong with the demand for a separate state.
Elections in Nagaland are scheduled to be held in March next year. Even before this, 20 MLAs have threatened that if this demand is not accepted, they will boycott the elections and will not allow the elections to take place in the state. The demand for a separate state from Nagaland has been going on for a long time. These demanding leaders claim that the six districts of Nagaland, bordering China and Myanmar, have been completely ignored. There is no development in this area so it should be developed by creating a separate state.
BJP argues that there is no need to create a separate state for development. The central government is trying to develop the North Eastern states so very soon this region will come out of backwardness.
Congress worried over Owaisi's biryani-samosa scheme
Asaduddin Owaisi's party has launched a campaign to recruit members following its success in local Swaraj elections in Madhya Pradesh. The Congress leader is worried because of the overwhelming response he is getting. Traditionally, Muslim voters are believed to be with the Congress, but gradually these voters seem to be shifting towards Owaisi's party. In Bhopal itself, the number of Owaisi's party members is said to have crossed one lakh.
Owaisi's party has introduced a scheme to make new members eat breakfast. Everyone who comes to the office of AIMIM is welcomed with biryani or tea-samosas.
It was started by Pirzada Taukir Nizami in Narela, Bhopal. Nizami claims that twenty thousand members of AIMIM have been registered in his constituency. Taking inspiration from Nizami, other leaders started holding tea-breakfasts in their respective areas, and they are getting a lot of members there as well.
Madhya Pradesh is going to polls in November next year, so the Congress' concern is understandable.

People trashing even Central Vista!
New Delhi, dated 23
Visitors do not hesitate to throw garbage even on the green (loan) of the newly constructed and recently opened central vista in the capital city of Delhi, which is the pride of the entire country!

Ramayana Politics of Congress: Join India Video Ravana Modi
Even though the Dussehra celebrations have ended with the burning of effigies of Ravana across India, the Congress party is now attacking 'Ramayana politics'. The party, on Friday, posted a one-minute video on its official YouTube channel comparing Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Ravana. The video starts like this. The politics of this country need you. After that, a surprised Rahul Gandhi seems to be leading the Join India Yatra, then Modi appears. And heard. Ravana will come in the guise of a gentleman from time to time in Kali Yuga. An attempt has been made to reveal the contrast between Rahul and Modi. In this video, Rahul has been described as a necessity of Indian politics. He is shown playing with children, walking with women and thus meeting the public.
Congress angered by party MP's comments
As Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra is about to enter Telangana, Bhongir Congress MP Komatireddy Venkat Reddy's comments implying that the Congress will not win the Munugode assembly seat by-election on November 3 are causing the party to blush. The video of the above mentioned Congress leader making a statement in Australia has gone viral. He was interacting with Congress supporters abroad. Earlier, Venkat Reddy's brother Komatireddy Raj Gopal Reddy held this seat. But he has to hold this by-election by leaving the Congress and taking the edge of the BJP. The MP from Bhongir did not join the campaign of any candidate but met Union Home Minister Amit Shah along with his brother. Meanwhile, the Congress has made a strong push to retain Munugode's seat, but its chances of success are slim.
