Mysuru: Attacking the Congress government in Karnataka as a commission government Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said the welfare of the people was never its priority and the state needs a government with mission under the BJP to ensure all-round development.Addressing a public rally in the city the prime minister said as long as there was a Congress government in Karnataka the state could not progress.Repeating his comment made earlier this month in Bengaluru where he had said that the Siddaramaiah government in Karnataka worked for 10 per cent commission Modi said: You have a choice to elect a party (BJP) which runs a government with a definite mission and reject a party (Congress) that works only for commission. Karnataka does not require a commission government but a mission government led by the BJP which will ensure all-round progress of the state. Congress has ruined the state and people will teach them a lesson in the elections he said speaking at the Maharaja College ground in the city after dedicating various railway projects.Assembly election is due in the state in late April or early May. Every day a new scam new corruption charges and new allegations are cropping up against their leaders and ministers or those related to government schemes. The Congress leaders spread lies and repeat them believing that the people would believe them. But the people are wiser and they never accept such lies for long noted PM Modi.Lamenting the lack of development in the states where the Congress was in power PM Modi said the grand old party would act like a bump on the path to speedy progress.Although the central government provided funds to the state the Congress government could not utilize them on development projects he said.The prime minister claimed that despite the Congress ruling the country for over half-a-century four crore families in the country were without power. For over 50 years it was only one party that ruled the country. What is the reason that about four crore families still lack power supply? Why they did not ensure their well-being all these years he asked adding that the country could never repose faith in the Congress. Over the years several schemes were discussed and debated in Parliament but never implemented on the ground. When we came to power we identified them and initiated work on such projects he stressed. CommentsClose X According to the prime minister creating a railway system which is modern and technologically advanced is vital. We are strengthening the railway networks across the country. Karnataka too is benefiting from it. The party s state leaders like B S Yeddyurappa and central ministers Piyush Goel Prakash Javdekar Ananth Kumar and D V Sadananada Gowda attended the rally and felicitated PM Modi with the famous Mysore peta (headgear).
New Delhi: The Congress on Monday sharpened its attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi dubbing him Maun Modi (silent Modi) for his continued silence on issues critical to the country and alleged that raids by agencies in the bank scam are a mere eyewash to befool the public. Leading the attack was Congress president Rahul Gandhi who fired yet another salvo at the prime minister over his silence on the multi-crore PNB bank fraud asking where the country s watchman was when jeweller Nirav Modi fled the country like liquor baron Vijay Mallya. Gandhi took the swipe at the prime minister for his refrain during poll rallies that he would act as a watchman for the country and cited his na khaoonga na khaane doonga (will neither do nor allow anyone to do corruption) statement. File image of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. AP The Congress chief said the entire country was keen to know the secret behind his silence and alleged that it screams out loud where his loyalties were. First Lalit (Modi) and then (Vijay) Mallya now Nirav (Modi) also fled the country. Where is the country s watchman who claimed Na khaoonga na khaane doonga (Will neither do nor allow anyone to do corruption)? The public is longing to know the reason of saheb s silence. His silence screams out loud who is he loyal to? he asked in a tweet in Hindi. पहले लल त फ र म ल्य अब न रव भ हुआ फर र कह ँ है न ख ऊँग न ख ने दूँग कहने व ल देश क च क द र? स हेब क ख म श क र ज़ ज नने क जनत बेकर र उनक चुप्प च ख च ख कर बत ए व क सके हैं वफ द र#ModiRobsIndia Office of RG (@OfficeOfRG) February 19 2018 The Congress on its official website also dubbed Modi as Maun Modi a term used by the BJP against former prime minister Manmohan Singh for his silence on various scams during the UPA Government. Congres spokesperson Manish Tewari said the government should tell who facilitated the escape of accused designer jeweller Nirav Modi and his partner Mehul Choksi despite a court order declaring Choksi as an absconder and a proclaimed offender. He said fresh revelations have come in the matter and the court of chief judicial magistrate had on 4 August 2017 declared Mehul Choksi the managing director of Gitanjali Jewellery and Vipul Chaitalia the company s authorised signatory as a proclaimed offender and absconding . How was this man allowed to leave the country? The question arises that how can a person who is a declared proclaimed an offender and an absconder by a court of law be allowed to leave the country and we would like to ask the NDA-BJP Government. We would like to ask the prime minister of India and the finance minister of India that who facilitated the exit of this man from the country despite the order of a competent court which brings us to certain other questions that we would like to ask he told reporters. The Congress asked on Twitter Is it too much to expect Maun Modi who had promised to be the chowkidar of the nation to speak one word on this systematic loot of the banking system? In an article headlined Maun Modi: The Art of Silence the Congress said the age-old proverb Silence is golden has caught the fancy of the verbose Prime Minister while the nation ponders over the reasons behind his reticence. PM Modi has mastered the art of remaining silent while scam after scam hits the nation. He possibly believes that his silence will help distract the nation. #MaunModihttps://t.co/mEPHzKUOvw Congress (@INCIndia) February 19 2018 What could explain this? When the country s biggest banking scam hit the airwaves Narendra Modi was found passing on unsolicited tips to students on how to cope with exam stress inaugurating the swanky new headquarters of BJP and holding forth on artificial intelligence. It looks like the chowkidar of the nation s wealth has abdicated all responsibility moral and otherwise it said. Tewari said Modi speaks on everything referring himself as chowkidar (watchman) of the country and its pradhan sevak (servant). But we would like him to answer some questions on issues that are critical and the country is demanding answers the Congress leader said. Tewari demanded that the government issue a white paper on the health of the banking sector and a complete list of all NPAs of banks be published on their website to enable people who have invested money in these banks to know their fiscal health. On the country-wide raids launched by various agencies in the bank scam case he asked Who are they attempting to fool? This is an activity merely for the sake of activity for creating a smoke-screen for trying to give an illusion of action when the horses have already bolted. This activity is merely an eye-wash. It is for the benefit of cameras he alleged. Tewari demanded answers from the prime minister on Amit Shah s son s company the Rafale price at which the aircraft were purchased the purchase of stake by ONGC in Gujarat Petroleum Corporation and on the issue of death of Justice Loya asking why he has not answered questions of the The Congress said Whenever the prime minister speaks it is either to dish out more rhetoric or to badmouth the Congress party or to point towards the past and claim victimhood . The Opposition party also took out a video of Modi sleeping while scamsters like Mallya and Nirav Modi fled. Have you heard of this amazing scheme by the Modi govt to create more billionaires? PM Modi has mastered the art of remaining silent while scam after scam hits the nation. He possibly believes that his silence will help distract the nation the party said.
CHENNAI : Prime Minister Narendra Modi likely to visit Chennai to launch the AIADMK government s Amma scooter scheme on February 24 former chief minister J Jayalalithaa s birth anniversary. The event is being held at a time when a couple of important high court verdicts are set to be delivered by the Madras HC. The PM s interest in the state s welfare will be on display at Kalaivanar Arangam in Chennai when the scheme will be officially launched. Modi s visit assumes significance as the HC is expected to come out with a ruling in the case of disqualification of 18 MLAs by the Tamil Nadu assembly speaker. The fate of the one-year-old Edappadi K Palaniswami government hinges on the outcome of the case. Highly placed sources told TOI that the state government officially invited Modi a few days ago for the event and the PMO confirmed participation on Monday morning. PM advised me on merger due to his affection for Jaya A senior minister who wished to remain anonymous said A tentative schedule has been received by the government. Modi who will be attending Auroville s 50th anniversary celebrations and a public meeting in Puducherry on February 25 has agreed to participate in the TN government event in Chennai to be held the previous day. The function will be held at Kalaivanar Arangam at 5.30pm. Meanwhile on Monday deputy CM O Panneerselvam sought to clarify that Modi had asked him to join hands with EPS to save the government. During my visit to New Delhi Modi asked me about T T V Dhinakaran s attempt to topple the government with the help of 18 MLAs. When I consulted him about joining hands (merging with the EPS faction) he said it will be good. It reflects the goodwill he has for us the deputy CM told reporters in Madurai. When parties want to benefit out of creating divisions Modi has offered advice because of his affection towards the former chief minister. There is no hidden agenda and it only shows his magnanimity Panneerselvam said. His rival Dhinakaran took a dig at the BJP leadership saying the party was controlling the ruling AIADMK. While the PM s visit is seen as an attempt to put to rest speculations about strain between BJP and the ruling camp AIADMK MP V Maitreyan said the visit by PM was to be seen as a goodwill gesture. He is the PM of the country. This is a programme announced by Amma on her birthday and to inaugurate it on her birthday is a good way of paying obeisance to the departed leader Maitreyan said.
Modi asked me to join hands with Edappadi
Nearly six months after he merged his breakaway faction with the ruling camp of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam Tamil Nadu Deputy Chief Minister O Panneerselvam (pictured above) said on Friday that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had asked him to do so.Modi told him that the two factions should merge to save the party Panneerselvam claimed according to ANI. I agreed but said that I will not become a minister and will only take a party position he said. Modi however did not agree and told him to continue with politics . That is why I am a minister today the deputy chief minister said. I don t want to be a minister The Hindu quoted him as saying. Amma former Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa had made me an MLA four times and chief minister twice. I can live with that pride. In August 2017 the two factions of the AIADMK announced their merger after months of political drama that followed Jayalalithaa s death in December 2016. The announcement was made by O Panneerselvam and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Edappadi Palaniswami the leaders of the two camps. After the merger Panneerselvam became the deputy chief minister and got the finance ministry portfolio.The problems I faced harassment I faced was limitless. If anybody else would have been in my place he would have committed suicide. I faced it all only because of Amma: O Panneerselvam Deputy CM Tamil Nadu pic.twitter.com/XbhHOAloQ9 ANI (@ANI) February 17 2018
Let me stick my neck out to make a prediction. Tamil Nadu can brace itself for a sequel to Dharmayuddham (Holy war) a pompous title that O Panneerselvam chose for his revolt against VK Sasikala in February last year. Expect the footfalls at Jayalalithaa s samadhi at Marina beach in Chennai also to go up with Panneerselvam s utterances an indication that he wants to launch Dharmayuddham 2.0. On Friday the day Tamil Nadu was unhappy with the Supreme Court verdict that reduced its share of Cauvery water by 14.75 TMC feet OPS chose to talk politics in his backyard of Theni. But while he continued to harp on his erstwhile position as a trusted minister of Jayalalithaa and on his dislike for Sasikala he bowled a googly by revealing Narendra Modi s hand in the merger of the two AIADMK factions last year. OPS quoted an anecdote reportedly related to him by the Prime Minister to pat himself on the back. The prime minister told me that when he came to Chennai Amma had invited him for a meal. He told me that Amma said a lot of things to me about you and that I should take charge to protect the party OPS quoted Modi as saying. File image of O Panneerselvam. PTI Having established that Jayalalithaa held him in high esteem OPS then went on to showcase his monk-like attitude to positions of power. I said okay but explained to him that I did not want a minister s position and that just a party role would do. He said No no you have to take up a minister s role and be part of the government. It is because of this that I took up the minister s position. I told the other ministers about this who said I should not say no to him. That is why I am a minister today. Not because I have the desire to be a minister. Amma made me chief minister twice. That honour is enough for me said OPS who is now deputy chief minister in the Tamil Nadu government. Even though the BJP indulging in backseat driving in Tamil Nadu is the worst kept secret in Chennai party spokespersons have repeatedly denied playing any role in facilitating the AIADMK merger. This assertion by OPS shows they were either lying all along or were completely ignorant of the moves of their party bosses in New Delhi. But the important question is why did the usually reticent OPS decide to reveal this critical detail now exposing the prime minister s advisory role. It is not as if he does not know that it will embarrass the BJP as a party with no MLAs in the Tamil Nadu assembly and less than 3 percent vote share in the 2016 elections. By invoking Modi and highlighting the prime minister s friendship with Jayalalithaa OPS is making two things clear. One that contrary to the perception that he hankered after power and therefore waved the white flag with EPS he did so only when compelled by Modi. Two OPS is sending across the message to EPS that not only he was Amma s chosen one but he also has New Delhi s blessings. This is possibly a precursor to OPS moving closer to the BJP in Tamil Nadu expecting that the AIADMK government s days are numbered. Ahead of the elections the grand plan could possibly be to create a rainbow coalition of Rajinikanth BJP and the OPS faction of the AIADMK. OPS also targeted Sasikala and her family accusing them of trying to ensure his defeat in the 2016 elections. It was his attack on Sasikala that gained him traction a year ago and elevated his stature from that of a permanent nightwatchman under Jayalalithaa to someone who had a spine to protest. A year later OPS is falling back on the same formula to raise his political stature. What do his statements in Theni indicate about the goings-on in the AIADMK? Sources say AIADMK senior leaders are on tenterhooks with the impending judgment of the Madras High Court in the case relating to the disqualification of 18 MLAs belonging to the TTV Dhinakaran camp. If the Speaker s decision disqualifying the MLAs is upheld it will push the government into a minority. Tamil Nadu is also abuzz with rumours of EPS reaching out to Sasikala s Mannargudi family asking it to back him while keeping Dhinakaran out. While the possibility of it happening is very remote sources say OPS is feeling marginalised within the party power structure and fears he could be the fall guy in case EPS strikes a deal with his former friends. The Mannargudi clan has never forgiven OPS for backstabbing Sasikala. Why would EPS strike a deal with Sasikala when he knows it won t amuse the BJP? In Tamil Nadu given the state s aversion to the Hindi and Hindutva template of the BJP Palaniswami has realised that being seen as remote controlled by the BJP is not helping his political equity. He is already witness to Dhinakaran MK Stalin and Kamal Haasan trying to occupy the anti-BJP space that because of the fellow traveller arrangement overlaps with the anti-AIADMK space. The question however is whether a second OPS revolt will have any credibility. The latest revelations are a move by Panneerselvam to capture the rebel space once again.
Following Prime Minister Narendra Modi s session with students preparing for exams Pariksha Par Charcha on February 16 schools have been asked to submit photo or video proof that students watched the national telecast of the PM s counselling.
