Why PM did not receive Justin Trudeau? If not him then by whom?

Image
C anadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau kicked off his journey to India when he arrived in India on Saturday for the long week visit. On Sunday, he also took a visit of Taj Mahal with its family. Apart from his engagements in Delhi, he will visit Ahmedabad, Mumbai, and Amritsar. He will also be visiting Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad, Akshardham temple in Gandhinagar and participate in an event at IIM-Ahmedabad. On February 21, the Canadian prime minister will visit Golden Temple in Amritsar. The next day, he will visit New Delhi’s Jama Masjid. Everything looks perfect, right? If you think so, you might be wrong then. Canadian PM got an opportunity to see other side of India's diplomacy when he landed at the Indira Gandhi International Airport. Guess who received Justin Trudeau? Trudeau, who arrived with his wife and three children, was received by Minister of State for Agriculture Gajendra Singh Shekhawat. He was not even received by any cabinet ministe...

My take on Punjab national bank scam- let all details come out first.

Image
My take on the scam is scam started in 2011 where fake LOUs was issued which is kind of bank guarantee where you can raise money from another bank. What I believe is such a big amount cannot have surpassed the eyes of even higher banking authorities. How can only Deputy Manager can do everything and that too of the only single or just a couple of branches without any other authority's Notice? Now, this scam may have extended till 2017 or 2018 as 11k crores are not given in one transaction only and Allahabad bank, State bank and Axis Bank is also in this chapter. Whether fresh LOUs were issued or not is not clear therefore it is too early to comment on it. If scam also extended during NDA tenure, it would be a blot on this govt that it failed to curb corruption in its tenure. It is also a big setback as finance ministry is trying to solve NPA crisis and trying to recapitalize banks but again someone just fled with the money. I also believe that Nirav Modi and Mehul Choks...

Real face behind the violence in Ahmedabad over 'Padmaavat' movie

Image
Protest against the film 'Padmaavat' turned violent on Tuesday evening when the unidentified group of people attacked after the march by Karni Sena. Single screen theatre complex of Cinemax and three malls Himalaya, Ahmedabad One and Acropolis was under attack by the mob. These happened even after the theatres had decided not to screen the film in their respective theatres. Windows of four-wheeled vehicles were smashed and bikes were set to fire parked outside these places. In the rampage, more than 150 four-wheelers and bikers were damaged. Police were left with no option but to fire a couple of rounds in the air.It directly raised questions over Karni Sena and the organisations who had threatened that they would go to any extent to stop the release of 'Padmaavat'. Let us see who were behind the attacks in Ahmedabad. A guy named Chavda Amitshin is seen saying on the post that rather than putting fire the ST buses Volvo buses should put on f...

"Put down weapons on border for one day to protest against release of Padmavat", asks Karni Sena president

Image
You need to see what Rajput Karni Sena asked "Kshatriya Jawans" to do to boycott the release of Padmavat. Mahipal Singh Makrana, who is the president of Rajput Karni Sena called on "Kshatriya" jawans to put their arms on the border and not to eat mess food for one day to show their protest against the release of Padmavat. As soon as I read the news, it took no time to realise that to what extent can they go to ban a movie. They are seen openly threatening theatre houses who'd release the film anywhere in India even after the rule out of Supreme Court. Whether it is the distortion with the history or not is a different matter and debatable issue as well but to threaten the cinema houses in national televisions, provoking people and especially army jawans is the most disgusting thing they could ever do. I don't even understand the logic behind calling on "Kshatriya" jawans to put down their weapons on borders and not to eat mess food for one day. ...

Is Democracy in DANGER?

Image
On 12th January, Four senior judges of the country’s apex court – Justice Chelameswar, Justice Gogoi, Justice Kurien, and Justice Lokur – called for a press meet and declared that the administration of the Supreme Court was not in order. Their main concern about which they talked about openly was allotment of cases to the bench of junior judges over senior judges means they were not happy with the decisions taken by Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra. Media widely covered this press conference and the issue was widely debated but media failed to put few things and connect them with the press conference intentionally or unintentionally. Let me remind you what was said at the press conference, that " there was an immediate need to preserve the judiciary system in the country if democracy has to be protected." This is what the judges said in the press conference: 1. This is an extraordinary in the history of the nation. It is an extraordinary event in the history of ...
