Topic: Jyotiraditya Scindia

This was first MP election since Scindia left Congress with 22 MLAs & joined BJP. The region has 34 of MP’s 230 seats, & the election was seen as a test of his clout.

The two had refrained from directly attacking each other, so far. Until his exit in 2020, Scindia was seen in the Congress as virtually No 2 after the Gandhi family.

Campaigning for BJP for 17 Nov assembly polls, Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia dispels rumour of rivalry with Narendra Singh Tomar, says Congress may call him betrayer, but BJP his family.

Kamal Nath-led Congress in Madhya Pradesh is using BJP leaders, who might be feeling neglected or overlooked, to weaken Scindia’s stronghold & avenge the fall of its govt in 2020.

Scindias put Gwalior on the air map of India and the world, bringing a large part of central India into contact with the rest of the country and international air routes.

The multi-plane deal announced by Europe’s Airbus on the opening day of the Paris Airshow on Monday is the biggest plane deal in history.

Under current regulation, airfares aren't regulated by govt or DGCA. On 5 June, civil aviation minister Jyotiraditya Scindia told airlines to keep fares on particular routes 'within limit'.

Before her rally, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra performed puja at Gwarighat on the banks of river Narmada, giving a clear sign of the shape Congress campaign for MP is likely to take. 

Civil aviation minister also said that airlines must proactively monitor their fares rather than wait for govt to step in. He attributed surge to seasonal demand, capacity squeeze.

While Congress leader Jairam Ramesh quoted a Subhadra Kumari Chauhan poem to claim the Scindias were ‘traitors’, Jyotiraditya Scindia cited Nehru’s book to argue otherwise.
