Talk of Delhi: Rajya Sabha elections today, excitement in four states


New Delhi: With the Rajya Sabha elections scheduled for Friday, June 10, there is great political excitement. This time there were elections for a total of 9 seats but with 21 members uncontested, now there is a fight for only 15 seats. Four states - Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Karnataka and Haryana - are all set to go to the polls.

The main battle in these four states is between the BJP and the Congress. Both the parties have used all their strength to keep their legislators from exploding and money is flowing like water. Shiv Sena, Congress, BJP, NCP have sent their MLAs to resorts and five star hotels to keep them safe. His hospitality leaves no stone unturned but no one trusts him. The Congress is more worried about losing its MLAs as the BJP can do anything to win.

Voting will be held in all the four states by noon on Friday and the results will be declared by evening, so everyone's life will be high till evening.

NDA's hand in the presidential election

As President Ramnath Kovind's five-year term ends on July 7, Raisina Hill is gearing up to welcome the new president on July 9. The Election Commission has today announced the dates for the presidential election. This election will be held on July 16 and the result will come on July 31. The NDA needs the support of BJD and YSRP to win this election and it is working hard for that. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has met BJD supremo Naveen Patnaik and YSRP leader Jagmohan Reddy. But they have not yet endorsed him.

In addition to Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha MPs, MLAs from the States and Union Territories vote in the Presidential elections. In terms of numbers, the NDA is far ahead of the Congress-led UPA coalition. The Congress-led UPA coalition has 5 per cent of the electoral college votes, while the NDA has more than twice as many votes as the UPA, or about 5 per cent.

Of course, if the opposition, including Mamata Banerjee and Naveen Patnaik, joins hands with the Congress, there will be a fierce battle. In this election, a total of 202 voters will be able to vote with 8 MPs and 203 MLAs. The whip will not apply in this election and voting will be completely secret so the BJP is confident of victory.

When to take action against the instigators?

Delhi Police has registered an FIR against a number of leaders, including Asaduddin Owaisi, for allegedly making provocative remarks. Police claim that legal action has been initiated against these people for hurting the feelings of people of other religions.

However, it is doubtful that any action will be taken against these leaders. Police are satisfied with registering FIRs on paper but there are criticisms that no action has been taken.

Corona Rising declares 28 districts red zones of the country

Concerned Modi government has asked the five states of Maharashtra, Kerala, Delhi, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu to remain vigilant as corona cases are once again on the rise in the country. New restrictions are likely to be imposed in Delhi. At present, the positivity rate in Delhi is 4.5 per cent.

In the last few days, the number of coronavirus patients in the country has increased by 20% every day. After about three months, the number of new infections in the country has crossed 6,000, so the government is worried.

The Union Ministry of Health has declared 4 districts of the country as red zones due to the increase in coronary infections. The district has four districts in Haryana and Maharashtra where the weekly transition is more than 3%. Corona is growing rapidly in seven states, including Arunachal Pradesh, so they too have been asked to take urgent action. The Civil Aviation Department has also ordered that unmasked people be evacuated from the plane. If a traveler violates the Covid-12 protocol, it can also be blacklisted.

Sinajori on congressional theft in the Herald case

Following the ED's summons in the National Herald case, Congressmen are criticizing the announcement of Rahul Gandhi to protest when he appears on June 15. Many Congressmen are even calling the protest a ploy to steal.

Congress has asked all MPs to be present at the party office in the morning on the day Rahul Gandhi is present. Along with Rahul, all the Congress MPs are also likely to go to the ED office. The Congress wants to send a message that the party is with Rahul by using force against the ED's summons.

The ED has also asked Sonia Gandhi to attend but she has asked for more time to attend as she is infected with Corona. The Congress says that Sonia and Rahul have nothing to hide so both will respond by appearing before the ED. The Congress also quipped that Amit Shah was on the run from 2012 to 2014 but we have no fear so Sonia-Rahul will be present and abide by the law.

Electric car batteries will be cheaper

While the government is also worried about rising petrol and diesel prices, the Modi government is planning to increase the use of electric vehicles. As part of this, the GST Council will reduce the tax rate on lithium-ion batteries.

Lithium-ion batteries are currently subject to 18% GST. In addition, 3% GST is levied on the total cost of an electric vehicle. Instead, a single tax system is being considered, but at present the tax on batteries is likely to be reduced to 5 per cent. EV batteries cost about 5% of the total cost of an electric vehicle, so a reduction in GST on EV batteries will reduce the cost of the car.

The central government convened a meeting on Tuesday with members of the policy commission, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, heavy industry and other government departments to discuss ways to reduce battery prices. At the meeting, suggestions were made to reduce taxes and make EV batteries cheaper. Based on this, the policy commission will prepare a draft policy and send it to the GST Council.

Increasing thirst in cities.

Image
Until today rural areas and scattered settlements like Bundelkhand were surviving without water while the cities looked proudly towards the villages and considered themselves safe RO. Blessedly drank the water purified by and Adyapi drank. But now the thirst of those rural areas has begun to expand and reach the cities, which have the potential to eclipse the cities in the coming decades. 40 percent of people in Chennai are suffering from water scarcity. The situation is the same in about 24 thousand villages of Maharashtra. Obviously, the public is facing the real problem of environmental destruction and climate change, but these problems have no place in the manifestos of our political parties, nor do the general public have any idea of ​​their magnitude. All of us still don't consider it a threat or maybe even ignorant after knowing. Why is water such a problem? In fact, we are behaving like crazy in the rush of development. The problem is not development, it is blindly follow

Uproar in UP politics due to attack on Chandrasekhar Ravan

Image
There is talk on social media that Chandrasekhar Azad himself staged the attack in an attempt to gain political advantage. - Chandrasekhar Azad Ravan is one of the most interesting characters in UP politics. Chandrasekhar is only 36 years old but has made more enemies than anyone else in UP politics. Ravana is very unpopular with the upper castes especially the Thakurs and Kshatriyas because Azad speaks harshly against the upper castes. Chandrasekhar has been speaking in the same aggressive tone against those who have been playing vote bank politics in the name of Dalits for years. Leaders who have been running their shop in the name of Dalit vote bank in UP for years feel threatened by Chandrasekhar and dislike him. Chandrasekhar is also considered by many as a pawn of BJP and Yogi Adityanath. The attack on Chandrashekhar Azad Ravan, known as the chief of Bhim Army and an extremely aggressive youth Dalit leader, in Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh, has created an atmosphere of tension and

Jaishankar's severe test.

Image
The death sentence awarded to eight former Indian Navy personnel detained in Qatar since last year has naturally shocked the entire country. The news of his arrest also shocked everyone, but the Government of India not only took notice but also initiated necessary action. After which these people were also made to talk to their family members on the phone and they were also given the help of a counselor. But the way a court there suddenly sentenced him to death makes it clear that the case is going to prove to be a major diplomatic challenge for the Indian government. This decision of the court of Qatar has come after a long inquiry of a year or so. The retired Indian Navy officers were arrested and charged with espionage last March before Qatar's Central Intelligence Agency began questioning them on suspicion. The reason for the arrest of these eight Indians has not been disclosed yet. Reports circulating in the local media suggest that they were involved in an important Qatari

Ukraine war annuity.

Image
It has been a year since the war in Ukraine. When it started, the NATO countries on Ukraine's side, including the twin brothers America and Britain, were very vocal in their warnings to Russia and threats of Russia's self-destruction if the spark of war was ignited. But in this war, which the whole world is witnessing, America has kept itself on the sidelines and neutrally i.e. sat on the bank and only watched its friendly country, Ukraine, being scattered in the current of war. The US has so far given millions of dollars in aid to Ukraine as normal, and some of it has given it third-class weapons. The weapons provided have proved to be like toys given to a child to fight against Russia. Due to this, the entire country has become largely empty. The US has not really helped internationally except by pro-Ukraine lectures. Against this, Russia has continued to send convoys of armed forces. Russia has carried out dangerous attacks to gain control over certain geographical locatio

Haha, now it's fun to dump all the blame on Shani!

- Agdam Bagdam-Baba Adam - If given the task of picking vegetables at home, refusing saying that my Saturn is bad now, there are full chances of being cheated. An employee came late to the office on Friday. Before the boss could ask anything, he said, 'Today Shani has moved.' A man might lose his job due to Shani Nadava, but the boss did not understand how he could be late for work. The employee said with a smile, 'Nowadays there are a lot of news that Saturn has changed the sign, so in my mind Saturn is only Saturn. I think today is Saturday so it is a weekend holiday. That's why I was sleeping with a cool rug in this cold. The wife informed late that today is Friday, reach office. Otherwise whether Shani moves or not, the boss will definitely move. I said no, our boss is not as harsh as Shani. ' The boss stopped running for the day, but Shani is a boss who does not stop someone once he decides to run. Again everyone knows this nature of Saturn. So a Gujarati

Mithali used to resort to books to ease the tension

Image
- This sounds like a sweet weirdo in the desert - Occasionally - Where there is competition there is strong tension. Mithali Raje has proved that book reading is an excellent medicine Every crisis lives a life. People come up with ideas, and to see them flush it out, it's really fun. Some smoke cigarettes or bidis, some take a single dose of intoxicants and some sniff drugs. But Mithali Raje, who recently said goodbye to every level of women's cricket, said nicely and exemplaryly that she reads a book to ease pre-match tensions. This sounds like a sweet weed in the desert. On the one hand, people's reading is declining and the best books are not being sold. People either watch TV or spend time doing activities they like to divert their attention during tensions. But by talking about reading a book to ease the tension, Mithali has set a new expectation. Diverting attention elsewhere tends to sidestep the issue with the original tension. So the mind gets peace. He was m

Talking about Delhi: The government was shocked by the report about the China border

Image
New Delhi: There is peace on the border between India and China now, but the report presented during the DGP conference has shocked the government. According to this report, Indian Army is not patrolling 26 points out of the 65 patrolling points of the Line of Actual Control (LAC). The areas from Karakoram Pass to Chumur are not being patrolled by the Indian Army so China can intrude and claim these areas. Areas that are not patrolled become buffer zones, thus weakening India's claim over them. There is a threat that China will gradually enter the region and eventually take over it. China's military is clever in taking advantage of this situation. China keeps a close watch on Indian Army movements by installing cameras on high peaks. Then the infiltration starts as soon as the opportunity arises. Voices of discontent against Yogi Adityanath in UP Ahead of the Lok Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh, voices of dissatisfaction against Yogi Adityanath have started to rise. The B
