Kindly Vote for all the 5 BSP Candidates
contesting in the Karnataka State By - Election on 18-08-2009
Dr. Subash Bharani (Kollegal)
Theentry of former IPS officer Subhash Bharani, to BSP has made the parties sit up. The BSP has a fairly good presence in
Chamarajanagar and Kollegal. If Bharani notches up an impressive number of
votes, it is an indicator of SC/ST unity and a boost to BSP.
BSP candidate Subash Bharani, the former IPS
officer, accused the opposition of indulging in malpractices including use of
money power. But there is wave for the party and people will vote for change, he
stated. The segment has rejected the politicians it elected once and will
continue the tradition since Congress nominee Jayanna is not active, JD(S)
candidate N Balaraj merely indulged in film activities when he was an MLA and
BJP candidate G N Nanjundaswamy was never close to the people.
He
said he is fighting to help the party open
its account in the state assembly. This should pave for the growth of BSP here,
he stated.

Little Prince No-father
[The
Power of Truth]
Once
upon a time, the King of Benares went on a picnic in the forest. The beautiful
flowers and trees and fruits made him very happy. As he was enjoying their beauty,
he slowly went deeper and deeper into the forest. Before long, he became separated
from his companions and realized that he was all alone.
Then
he heard the sweet voice of a young woman. She was singing as she collected firewood.
To keep from being afraid of being alone in the forest, the king followed the
sound of the lovely voice. When he finally came upon the singer of the songs,
he saw that she was a beautiful fair young woman, and immediately fell in love
with her. They became very friendly, and the king became the father of the firewood
woman’s child.
Later,
he explained how he had gotten lost in the forest, and convinced her that he was
indeed the King of Benares. She gave him directions for getting back to his palace.
The king gave her his valuable signet ring, and said, “If you give birth
to a baby girl, sell this ring and use the money to bring her up well. If our
child turns out to be a baby boy, bring him to me along with this ring for recognition.”
So saying, he departed for Benares.
In
the fullness of time, the firewood woman gave birth to a cute little baby boy.
Being a simple shy woman, she was afraid to take him to the fancy court in Benares,
but she saved the king’s signet ring.
In a few years,
the baby grew into a little boy. When he played with the other children
in the village, they teased him and mistreated him, and even started
fights with him. It was because his mother was not married that the
other children picked on him. They yelled at him, “No-father!
No-father! Your name should be No-father!”
Of
course this made the little boy feel ashamed and hurt and sad. He often ran home
crying to his mother. One day, he told her how the other children called him,
“No-father! No-father! Your name should be No-father!” Then his mother
said, “Don’t be ashamed, my son. You are not just an ordinary little boy.
Your father is the King of Benares!”
The
little boy was very surprised. He asked his mother, “Do you have any proof
of this?” So she told him about his father giving her the signet ring, and
that if the baby was a boy she should bring him to Benares, along with the ring
as proof. The little boy said, “Let’s go then.” Because of what happened,
she agreed, and the next day they set out for Benares.
When
they arrived at the king’s palace, the gate keeper told the king the firewood
woman and her little son wanted to see him. They went into the royal assembly
hall, which was filled with the king’s ministers and advisers. The woman reminded
the king of their time together in the forest. Finally she said, “Your majesty,
here is your son.”
The king was ashamed in front of all the ladies and gentlemen of his court. So,
even though he knew the woman spoke the truth, he said, “He is not my son!”
Then the lovely young mother showed the signet ring as proof.
Again
the king was ashamed and denied the truth, saying, “It is not my ring!”
Then
the poor woman thought to herself, “I have no witness and no evidence to
prove what I say. I have only my faith in the power of truth.” So she said
to the king, “If I throw this little boy up into the air, if he truly is
your son, may he remain in the air without falling. If he is not your son, may
he fall to the floor and die!”
Suddenly,
she grabbed the boy by his foot and threw him up into the air. Lo and behold,
the boy sat in the cross-legged position, suspended in mid-air, without falling.
Everyone was astonished, to say the least! Remaining in the air, the little boy
spoke to the mighty king. “My lord, I am indeed a son born to you. You take
care of many people who are not related to you. You even maintain countless elephants,
horses and other animals. And yet, you do not think of looking after and raising
me, your own son. Please do take care of me and my mother.”
Hearing
this, the king’s pride was overcome. He was humbled by the truth of the little
boy’s powerful words. He held out his arms and said, “Come to me my son,
and I will take good care of you.”
Amazed
by such a wonder, all the others in the court put out their arms. They too asked
the floating little boy to come to them. But he went directly from mid-air into
his father’s arms. With his son seated on his lap, the king announced that he
would be the crown prince, and his mother would be the number one queen.
In this way, the king and all his court learned the power of truth. Benares became
known as a place of honest justice. In time the king died. The grown up crown
prince wanted to show the people that all deserve respect, regardless of birth.
So he had himself crowned under the official name, “King No-father!”
He went on to rule the kingdom in a generous and righteous way.
The
moral is: The truth is always stronger than a lie.
three IAS officers with immediate effect for their
involvement in corruption in land allotment for hotels
in Noida in year 2006 and causing Rs. 4721.14 crore
loss to state exchequer
Suspended officers include the then
Chairman Noida Mr. Rakesh Bahadur
and CEO Mr. Sanjeev Saran
Stringent action ordered against former
divisional Commissioner (retired) Mr. Devdutt
Registration of criminal case against
all individuals and concerning officers ordered
Lucknow: August 10, 2009
Taking a serious view of the land allotment scam that took in
the allotment of plots to hotels in Noida, the Uttar Pradesh Chief
Minister Ms. Mayawati ordered suspension of 16 senior officers who
were responsible for the allotment of plots with immediate effect.
She also ordered departmental action against them. These officers
included the then Noida Chairman Mr. Rakesh Bahadur, I.A.S.,
Divisional Commissioner Meerut Mr. Devdutt, C.E.O. Mr. Sanjeev
Saran, Additional C.E.O. Mr. K. Ravindra Nayak, Chief Law Officer
Mr. H.N.S. Sengar, Dy. C.E.O. Mr. C.P. Singh, Chief Finance and
Accounts Officer Mr. S.C. Sangal, Accounts Officer Representing
Chief Finance and Accounts Officer Mr. V.K. Jain, Regional Tourism
Officer Mr. V. Kumar, Chief Project Engineer Mr. L.K. Gupta, Dy.
G.M. (Industry) Mr. D.V. Malik, Mr. Jay Prakash and Mr. L.K. Jha,
Chief Architect Planner Mr. V.A. Pujari and Mr.S.K. Jaman, Desk
Officer Mr. S.K. Kulshreshtha.
Ms. Mayawati has directed officers to immediately register
F.I.R. against these officers for causing damage of Rs. 4721.14
crore to State through illegal and irregular allotment. She has also
ordered an inquiry for determining causes of delay for taking action
against these officers and who were responsible for it. A detailed
report should be submitted in this regard at the earliest, the C.M.
directed the officers.
It may be recalled that the State Tourism Department, with a
view to attracting capital investment in the Tourism Industry, had
issued a G.O. in year 2006. The Noida Board, in its 135th meeting,
accepted the G.O. and decided to implement this policy in Noida. In
this light, plots were identified in sector 96, 97 and 98 of Noida. In
October, 2006, advertisements were issued for the newspapers for
25 plots for setting up three, four and five star hotels in Noida. As
many as, 31 applications were received for allotment of plots, out of
which 14 plots were allotted for various categories of hotels on 12
January 2007.
Against these allotments, two P.I.Ls were filed in Allahabad
High Court. It was brought to the notice of High Court that the land
allotment rate for these plots was Rs. 7400 per sq.m. as against a
market rate of Rs. 1,69,000 per sq.m. For that, no tender was
invited. Taking cognisance of these facts, the Chief Minister in July
2007, ordered immediate cancellation of the plots allotted in an
illegal manner. She had also ordered to identify the guilty and take
action against them within 15 days. In this light, the Noida
Authority, through its order dated 03 August, 2007, cancelled
allotment of plots.
Against the cancellation of the allotment, 14 hotel owners
filed their writs in High Court. On 13 May 2008, the High Court
quashed the cancellation order of the plots and directed the State
Government to accord personal hearing to the plaintiffs and issue
rational orders within six weeks. In this light, the State
Government, between 12 to 24 June 2008 held hearing in which ten
hotel owners appeared and the remaining four hotel owners did not
appear for hearing despite that they were allotted different dates.
All the hotel owners filed S.L.P. in Hon’ble Supreme Court.
On behalf of the State Government, after conducting hearing,
serious irregularities came to light in the allotment of plots for
hotels through order dated 08.09.2008. It was also discovered that
with the connivance of the officers, certain persons had bungled
about Rs. 4721.14 crore. Taking this matter very seriously, the
decision to suspend officers involved in the scam was taken
yesterday. It was also decided to file criminal case against all
persons involved in it.
Mayawati criticises central government on I-Day
LUCKNOW - Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati Saturday accused the
central government of not aiding in the state’s development schemes,
while pledging to improve the law and order situation and find a
“permanent solution” to the power shortage.
She unfurled the tricolour in front of the state assembly and in her
speech alleged that the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government
was “not co-operating in the development schemes of the state”.
“The central government has still not released the Rs.80,000 crore
(Rs.800 billion) package we sought for undertaking development schemes
in the state, particularly for the backward regions in Bundelkhand and
Poorvanchal,” Mayawati said.
“I want to make it clear that non-cooperation by the central
government will not come in the way of Uttar Pradesh’s development as
our government is determined to carry out development with its limited
resources,” she added.
Expressing concern over the scanty rainfall in Uttar Pradesh and its
effect on crops, Mayawati said: “Our government has earmarked Rs.580
crore to carry out relief measures in all the drought-hit districts. I
have instructed an additional responsibility to senior officials to
ensure farmers, labourers and financially weak people in the
drought-affected districts do not face any kind of problems.”
Of the 71 districts in the state, 58 were declared drought-hit in three phases in the last week of July.
The chief minister said her government was aiming to make Uttar
Pradesh a “power-surplus’ state. “For this, we are making war-footing
efforts. By 2014, we aim to provide a permanent solution to power
cuts.”
Highlighting a number of welfare schemes launched by her, Mayawati
said her government was working on several projects for improving the
education of girls, upgrading health infrastructure and creating more
jobs.
She said maintaining law and order would remain her government’s
priority. “I want to make it clear that under any circumstances my
government will not compromise with law and order.”
Mayawati later awarded three ‘Utkrisht Sewa Medals’ to policemen who had shown exemplary courage.
Governor B.L. Joshi hoisted the national flag at the Raj Bhawan and all government building were decked up for the occasion.
While a number of cultural programmes were held in schools and
colleges, patriotic songs blared from loudspeakers installed at
different parts of the city.
