via Today Bharat Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the nation today morning and said that the existing lockdown will be extended till the 3rd of May with the positive cases in the nation and increasing at a rapid phase. The positive cases in India have surpassed the 10,000 mark. nbsp; With everything across the nation being shutdown the daily wage workers and the poor people will get affected the most as they will not get any work until the lockdown is not lifted.Modi did not announce any schemes or plans to help them but urged the countrymen to help the poor people with food so that they will not starve for the food.This news did not go well with the Congress leader and former Finance Minister P. Chidambaram who took to Twitter to lash out at the BJP government for not trying to help the poor people. In a series of Tweets, he came down severely on the BJP party headed by Modi."The poor have been left to fend for themselves for 21+19 days, including practically soliciting food. There is money, there is food, but the government will not release either money or food. Cry, my beloved country," his tweet read."Amazing PM address. Exhortation, rhetoric, inspiration.....yet hollow on specifics! No financial package, no details, no concrete item. Neither for poor nor middle class nor industry nor businesses. Lockdown is good but cannot be end in itself! Where is single livelihood issue," the former Finance Minister said in a series of tweets.

PM Modi ‘thankful’ to Congress over no-confidence, says opposition helped to expose their own immaturity

Taking a dig at the Congress over no-confidence motion, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said he was “thankful” to the party for allowing him to expose their hollowness and giving a chance to the government to highlight its successes before the nation. Modi said that by initiating a no-confidence motion in the lower house of the Parliament, the Congress has shot itself in the foot. The prime minister’s views came during a BJP parliamentary party meeting which was attended by top party leaders.

In criticism of the motion in the parliament, the PM said that it showed the opposition’s political immaturity as even the numbers were against them. He said that his government neither lacked numbers nor faced any hostile political environment in the country, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ananth Kumar told reporters.

PTI quoted a source as saying that PM Modi offered ‘badhai’ (congratulations) to party members and allies for the motion’s defeat and ‘double badhai’ to those who brought it.

At the meeting, Union ministers Nitin Gadkari and Sushma Swaraj, besides BJP president Amit Shah felicitated the prime minister for the party’s victory and expressed their views over the motion’s defeat in Lok Sabha.

The prime minister also said that no mature political party would ever commit such mistake, referring to the motion that was brought against the NDA dispensation. He said that now the opposition parties are trying to cover up for their mistake by attacking the government over Rafale deal.

Meanhwile, backing PM’s views, BJP National President Amit Shah said there was no reason for the opposition to sponsor such a motion, which was comprehensively defeated with 326 members voting against it and only 126 supporting. Swaraj made a reference to the wide margin to attack the opposition, while Gadkari said it was spreading confusion over a host of issues among the masses as it lacked a real agenda, reported PTI.

http://ift.tt/2fVOMvl Journalists often aim to change things through their work, which is also a revolution of sorts. My Leftist friend considers the Sangh Parivar his enemy and wants to see it routed, at least democratically. But when this desire starts clouding one’s judgement as a media professional, then it becomes problematic. The visceral hatred for one man who is now the Prime Minister of India is making many observers of politics lose their objectivity and sense of proportion. In their desperation to see Modi on his knees, they find meanings where none exists. They experience unwarranted euphoria over insignificant victories such as the ABVP losing a seat in Delhi University student’s union election; they are even willing to hear bugles of war in Rahul Gandhi’s Berkeley speech. It is not as if before 2014 the roads in India were paved with gold and that milk flowed through its rivers. It is not as if previous governments had done wonders for the welfare of the poor and marginalised. Of course this government has problems and one of them has been intimidation in the name of cow vigilantism. Of course the Modi dispensation needs to be called out on promises that have turned out to be hollow. In other words, roads in India are not paved with gold and no milk flows through its rivers even after 2014. But reporting this has to be done realistically without spelling a constant sense of doom and without conveying this impression that Modi is personally supervising an imagined Armageddon. Biases and hate crimes against Dalits, for example, have existed since the very beginning; farmers have committed suicide for years; law-and-order has been non-existent in many parts and continues to remain so; there has always been tension with Pakistan. Nobody, including Modi, has a magic wand to make these things disappear even if he and other leaders before him have given us such an impression. Journalists doing their job must nevertheless highlight the failings of this government. But it should not feel as if we have his voodoo doll inside our drawers into which pins must be stuck every day. It is sometimes vital to take a step back and look at how certain things have worked for Modi even as most of us predicted that they would prove to be his Achilles heel. It is okay to be anti- authority, but that should not be only because there is a particular man at the helm of affairs. The idea is to write about the wrong policies of any government, not to hold meetings on how to bring it down CONSIDER DEMONETISATION. We have written and spoken about it extensively. We have shot videos of long queues outside banks and of marketplace gloom with our cellphone cameras. We still don’t know the long- term effects of this decision, but it also needs to be recognised that Modi’s BJP has scored a spectacular win in UP despite the disruption caused. This should make us pause and wonder if we are disconnected from how the people of this country think. Somehow Modi has managed to convince people that this is going to pinch the rich more than the poor. He has managed to impress upon them that he seeks no personal gain, that he has no Robert Vadra in his family who requires fancy bikes and cycles and expensive SPG cover, but only a mother who wears a worn sari and whom he goes to meet occasionally. Instead, some of us seem to have turned antagonism towards Modi into a sort of spectator sport without realising that Modi would not be who he is if he was not hated so much. A journalist friend speaks of her colleague who, while travelling through UP, would ask for her driver’s opinion on demonetisation and when told he had a good feeling about it, shouted at him for being so ‘ignorant’. Earlier in September, Pratik Sinha, founder of AltNews, a website that exposes fake news, published a clarification over a post put up by former police officer, Sanjiv Bhatt, a known critic of Modi. Bhatt had claimed that believers were stopped from offering prayers at the Sidi Saiyyed mosque in Ahmedabad when Modi accompanied Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe there on a visit. Presenting evidence that no such thing had happened, Sinha writes: ‘It is absolutely irresponsible on part of those who circulate such rumours on social media without cross-checking facts. Such rumours lead to communal polarisation. As it is, we are living in times when the strife between various religious/cultural communities is alarmingly high. We do not need social media rumours to further magnify this divide.’ Immediately afterwards, Sinha was trolled on social media, with many telling him that Bhatt and he were on the same side and that they should not be fighting among themselves but with their ‘common enemy’. One Modi critic went on to tell him that he was growing too big for ‘your boots’. Sinha had faced similar criticism for taking on the Left activist Shehla Rashid for asking a TV reporter to “get out” from the parking lot of the Delhi Press Club where she was making a political speech. We have written and spoken about demonetisation extensively. We still don’t know the long-term effects of this decision, but it also needs to be recognised that Modi’s BJP has scored a spectacular win in UP despite the disruption caused Modi bashers often use a term, ‘Godi media’, for those who they think sit in the proverbial lap of this government, doling out a favourable narrative of its efforts and achievements. But they sometimes forget that they themselves have become ‘Goop media’, turning to jelly whenever they try looking at the failings of non- BJP politics. Before her death, Gauri Lankesh had tweeted, ‘Ok some of us commit mistakes like sharing fake posts. Let us warn each other then. And not try to expose each other. Peace...comrades’ [apparently referring to photoshopped pictures of a Lalu Prasad rally which some had shared].

via Today Bharat Attacking the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government for the current economic slowdown and rural distress, former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said that merely "passing the buck to Congress would not work". "The present government should have learned and provided credible solutions to resolve the problems confronting the Indian economy. Five-and-half years is sufficient time to solve issues. Passing the buck to the Congress for India's problems does not work," Singh said in a stern admonition to the government.He said that the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi "talks about a lot of things, that two crore jobs will be provided, etc", but exactly the opposite is happening. "Now, people are losing jobs. The government believes in headline management and not taking concrete steps to resolve the problems," Singh said sharply. Taking a swipe at the BJP, he said that for "reaching the goal of five trillion dollar economy by 2024, the country would require a 10-12 percent GDP growth, but under the BJP government, the growth rate is declining steadily year after year". The internationally-acclaimed economist pointed out that with a growth rate of 5.5-6.0 percent, economic problems would not be solved and the BJP's goals of achieving "double-digit targets will prove to be hollow". Painting a grim picture ahead of the October 21 Maharashtra assembly elections, Singh said that the current slowdown in the country coupled with government apathy has badly hit the Indian economy."There is gloom in the automobiles hub of Pune, slowdown has led to a large number of factories shutting down in Maharashtraa. The state is hit by a grave economic crisis, but the government seems obsessed with trying to fix blame," said Singh. He said that from being No. 1 in investments, Maharashtra has now become No. 1 in farmers suicides, and urged for setting up labour-intensive industries, among other measures, to tackle the economic crisis. Interestingly, Singh's comments in Mumbai, the country's commercial capital, came a day before Prime Minister Modi is scheduled to address an election rally here on Friday. Referring to the Congress stance on the abrogation of Art. 370 for Jammu amp; Kashmir, Singh said that the party was "opposed to the high-handed manner in which it was implemented". To a question, the ex-PM stated that "nobody is more patriotic than the Congress, and it doesn't need a certificate on nationalism from anybody. "Our role in the struggle for Independence of India is well known. BJP's presence in the freedom was non-existent", Singh declared. On Maharashtra BJP's proposal to confer Bharat Ratna on Veer Savarkar, Singh said that the late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had issued a postal stamp to commemorate the Hindu leader. "We are not against Veer Savarkar. We do not agree with his ideology," Singh asserted, in a purported response to the oft-repeated charges levelled by the BJP top brass in the state and centre.
