DIGVIJAYA SINGH MAKES CONGRESS SQUIRM WITH HIS PULWAMA REMARK

IS SHAH RUKH KHAN?

Amid the

Himanta Biswa Sarma, on Saturday said he doesn’t know ‘Pathan-Sathan’. He questioned, “Who is Shah Rukh Khan?” and said he doesn’t know anything about the film. Talking to the media, CM Sarma said, “I don’t know anything about him or his film Pathaan. I don’t know who is Shah Rukh. If there is any protest that has created a law-and-order situation in the state, we will see for it.” try. “Positivity is always welcome. And if our Prime Minister is saying something like this... He is India’s biggest influencer. If he is saying something and if things change it’ll be great for the industry.

Himanta Biswa Sarma @himantabiswa Bollywood actor Shri @ iamsrk called me and we talked today morning at 2 am. He expressed concern about an incident in Guwahati during the screening of his film. I assured him that it’s the duty of the state govt to maintain law & order. We’ll enquire and ensure no such untoward incidents.

“And why not, things should change, because we go through so much. We make films, go to the censor board, get them passed and then someone says something and phir gadbad ho jati hai (it becomes a mess). But now that he has said it, I think it’ll be better for us,” Akshay said. Sadly, Akshay “realised” this for his fraternity only after

Koshyari said that during a recent visit of PM Narendra Modi he conveyed his desire to relinquish his gubernatorial post to “spend the remainder of my life in reading, writing and other activities” leader Sanjay Raut claimed that Koshyari had offered to resign but the claim was refuted by the Raj Bhawan. This was in the backdrop of Koshyari calling Chhatrapati Shivaji as an icon of the past and calling Dr BR Ambedkar and Union Minister Nitin Gadkari as the modern-day icons.

Prime Minister’s positive comment came in .

The Prime Minister’s comment was the much-needed booster for the Bollywood industry. It may be noted that the entertainment industry had contributed Rs 50,0000 crore to the economy, equating to 0.5% of GDP way back in 2013, according to the report ‘Economic Contribution of the Indian Motion Picture and Television Industry’, by financial services firm Deloitte. The sector also supports 18.8 lakh jobs.

THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY THE AUTHOR ARE PERSONAL

He again hurt the Maratha pride when he said that Samarth Ramdas was the guru of Shivaji Maharaj contrary to the belief that the warrior’s mother was his guru. His earlier remark that Mumbai would cease to be the financial capital if people from Gujarat and Rajasthan were to leave the megapolis pitted the Marwaris against Marathis. His remarks against Jyotiba Phule and Savitribai Phule’s child marriage had also raised tempers.

After several run-ins with the MVA government, the offer to resign could be in search of happiness as Koshyari once told a Jain spiritual leader that he never got happiness as governor. “Only unhappiness came my way,” he said.

day after former MP CM Digvijaya Singh raised the Pulwama terror attack and sought proof of the surgical strike deep inside the Pakistan Occupied Kashmir, the senior Congress leader got strong rebuff from Rahul Gandhi at whose Bharat Jodo Yatra the remark was made. “They are his personal remarks, not of the party,” Rahul Gandhi said. Another senior party leader Jairam Ramesh also tweeted that the views expressed by “Digvijaya do not reflect the position of Cong. Cong has supported and will continue to support all military actions that are in national interest”. Singh obviously had caused huge embarrassment to party which is not raising any issues which would help BJP.

If Digvijaya thinks that divisive issues will work in favour of Congress he is grossly mistaken. Polarisation will only drive majority community towards BJP. Since 2014 polarisation has made BJP’s stronger. Singh cannot match what BJP has to offer its voters.
