Former CM & opposition leader Bhupinder Singh Hooda said the protesting wrestlers, mostly from Haryana, had brought glory to the state & nation, but state govt wasn't listening to their grievances.
Statement by Maneka Gandhi, who along with her son & Pilibhit MP Varun Gandhi has been sidelined by BJP in recent years, comes in backdrop of the party's studied silence on the issue.
Modi didn’t mention wrestlers in Sunday’s Mann ki Baat. But the message was unmistakable: his govt’s women empowerment record can't be blemished by partymen's alleged misdeeds.
The last time this matter flared up was when Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, in a very similar directive in April, called for the relocation of stray dogs in the capital.
Finance ministry says the proposed revamp will focus on structural reforms, rate rationalisation & ease of living, & will be deliberated upon in the coming weeks.
The project is meant to be a ‘protective shield that will keep expanding’, the PM said. It is on the lines of the ‘Golden Dome’ announced by Trump, it is learnt.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
