New Delhi: Amidst the...
Going through their Instagrams and dissecting their ‘statements’ is not the astute political commentary you think it is—it is time for us to back off from targeting 20-year-olds.
Companies are borrowing more from banks and public. Economists say high capacity utilisation & growing new orders could set stage for renewed investment push by India Inc.
New Delhi has, in past, too, objected to Chinese construction activities in Shaksgam Valley. Work in this strategic region gathered pace after the 2017 Doklam stand-off.

Why should Mayawati be made to made to pay for the park and statutes?
Firstly, they serve a public purpose and have become the pride of Lucknow. A huge tourist attraction. The plan was passed by resolutions in elected body, approved and implemented by at least three independent bureaucratic committees and departments.
Secondly, it is an assertion of Bahujan/ Dalit identity; which has been overlooked for centuries. It is matter of pride that heros and saints of Bahujan population, 85%, are being finally acknowledged for their struggles and uplifting society. We have elephants on our currency notes, on your national emblem should we also remove those now? Why does it always pricks in the eyes of well to do casteist people when historically marginalised people assert themselves of equals. Present UP government spends 1 quarter of entire Ambedkar Park budget on celebrating Ram Nawami, and it do it for 5 years. So it now ends up being even more expensive than Ambedkar Park. Also, unlike public park what purpose does celebrating one day, with overly expensive light shows, celebrati performance and havans serve? That’s also a public’s money but even SC won’t interfere cause it is matter of belief now. But when it comes to Dalits we all are quick to jump the gun.
And lastly, Supreme Court hasn’t give judgment on this it was an oral observation, which honestly doesn’t hold much value in finality of things. As even SC is aware, this would open the flood gates and set a bad precedent in law. Also if we are hell bent on following oral observations then let’s start with when Court called Modi and Amit Shah as murderers and ask them to resign from their post as in law we can’t have a PM who has committed a heinous crime.
The only way to bring an end to corruption is to introduce NARCO Test to all the politicians and government servants annually. The test must be done along with filing of Annual Confidential Reports (ACR’s) of every employee and for all the elected representatives on the last day of assembly session each year. The Narco test proceedings must be made live to public. By this one can know about the intentions of all the politicians and government servants and also nothing can be hidden on the part of providing unnecessary benefits to others . It will make ensure the bribery acts being demanded or made to the public servants.
