While BJP has challenged Akhilesh Yadav to fight, SP's local unit also worked to convince him to contest from Kannauj saying his candidacy would bolster INDIA bloc's chances in Yadav belt.
Akhilesh Yadav served as Lok Sabha MP from 2000-2012. He resigned from the Kannauj parliamentary seat in 2012 after he became the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh.
FIR filed Saturday against MP Subrat Pathak, 9 supporters & dozens of unknown persons in connection with alleged altercation at police post over people detained in kidnapping case.
The suspect, Ramji Verma, has at least 4 cases against — two of these for sodomising & killing minor boys. In March 2018, he was arrested for trying to rape a minor girl, say cops.
Clips of the girl, bleeding and pleading for help from onlookers, went viral on social media. The clip shows several people busy making videos even as she cries for assistance.
Dilshan, 15, died days after he was allegedly beaten by 2 teachers & a school principal, but police say no injuries found. With police yet to file FIR or question teachers, family demands new autopsy.
International Perfume Museum and Park (now called Attar Park) was conceived of as an exchange of technical expertise between Kannauj and the French perfume capital, Grasse.
Ancient city of Kannauj traces its perfume-making history to Mughal empress Nur Jahan. It continues the legacy of making ‘attar’ through hydro-distillation technique.
The issue of inequality has assumed the blazing limelight at a time when inequality in India is said to be higher than it was in the British Raj. It's a ripe situation for half-truths and incendiary statements.
Speaking at launch of economist Surjit Bhalla’s book, S Jaishankar also highlights Gen Z’s engagement with ‘reel culture’, which has 'promoted awareness, created interest in many subjects'.
Germany’s erstwhile Christian Democratic Union govt, led by Angela Merkel, prevented sale of small arms to police forces in states they perceived had ‘bad human rights record’.
A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
