Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi on Monday launched his party’s campaign for the Gujarat assembly elections with an audacious claim that the party would return to power in the state and that it will give tickets largely to grassroots workers. “Grassroots workers will be fielded for the assembly elections,” Gandhi said during a direct interaction with party member from all the 182 constitu-
encies at the Sabarmati riverfront in line with the party’s focus on strengthening and revving up the organisation in Gujarat. The Congress has been put of power in Gujarat for almost two decades. But Gandhi sounded confident that the party would come to power after the polls scheduled later this year. “This time, I firmly believe no one can stop the Congress from forming the next government in Gujarat,” he said at the
outreach programme. He also said that the party will soon select the candidates for the polls likely to be held in November-December. He added that no leader from any other party joining the Congress ahead of the polls will be given ticket. Gandhi answered 10 pre-selected questions from thousands of workers from all the 182 constituencies. Congress unit chief in Gujarat, Bharatsinh Solanki read out the questions, which
Gandhi answered from a T-shaped stage erected at Sabarmati riverfront. Except two questions - one on whether candidates with muscle and money will continue to get the tickets and what the party do if senior leaders try to defeat own party candidates - the other questions were framed in a way that gave Gandhi the chance to attack the ruling BJP. “There is no place in party to those who try to damage the party’s
49 infants die in Farrukhabad hospital: Probe blames lack of oxygen
Agency | Lucknow
In a case similar to Gorakhpur hospital tragedy, 49 children have reportedly died in another Uttar Pradesh hospital — allegedly due to a shortage of oxygen supply. The deaths at the newborn unit of Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital, Farrukhabad, took place over the past month. The Uttar Pradesh government, however, denied that the deaths took place owing to lack of oxygen supply but attributed them to various caus-
es. The deaths came to light after the City Magistrate of Farrukhabad, Jaytendra Kumar Jain, on Sunday night asked the Station House Officer of City Police station in Farrukhabad to take necessary action against the hospital and its doctors, citing that he had found in
his preliminary inquiry that the 49 deaths took place because of lack of oxygen supply. An FIR was immediately registered at city Police station following which the government on Monday removed District Magistrate Ravindra Kumar along with Chief Medical Of-
Kejriwal’s response as to why the defamation proceedings should not be initiated against him. During a cross-examination by Jethmalani of the Union Minister before Joint Registrar in the Delhi High Court on May 17, Jethmalani had used the term ‘crook’ to which the senior BJP leader took
offence and filed a civil defamation case. The Joint Registrar had asked the AAP leader to file his reponse by July 26. Due to an apparent delay by Kejriwal in filing his reply, Jaitley’s counsel Manik Dogra brought the delay to the court’s notice. The counsel further submitted that these were delay tactics on the part of the chief minister. The court has now fixed the matter for October 12.
ficer of the district and Chief Medical Superintendent of the hospital. The FIR has been registered under Sections 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) and 176 (ommission to give notice or information to public servant by person legally bound to give it) of the IPC. The city magistrate, on the basis of the initial findings, has cited “perinatal asphyxia” as the reason for death in 30 cases. The findings also quote parents alleging that their children were not given adequate oxygen and medicines during treatment.
prospect in the poll,” said Gandhi in one of the answer. When the question and answer session began, Solanki mentioned the names of a couple of workers whose questions were selected. But he did not name the others whose questions were selected. Among the questions were those on the Congress’s stand on GST, unemployment, condition of farmers and small-medium scale industries. The Congress vice president said the BJP’s socalled ‘Gujarat model’ has failed to benefit commoners. “We all know the Modi government works for handful of wealthy industrialists,” Gandhi alleged. “Tata Motors’ Nano project was given a sum by the BJP government which was double the Gujarat’s farmers’ debt of Rs 30,000 crore,” said Gandhi.

2 / Dt. 05-09-2017, Tuesday Editors’ Picks tuesday, 05 september, 2017 Cabinet reshuffle shows nobody knows what PM Modi will do next There is only one clear, unequivocal message from Sunday’s reshuffle of the Union Cabinet. India has never seen a Prime Minister like Narendra Modi. One reason why all predictions about his likely actions fail is that there is no precedent for many of the things that Modi does and, therefore, no reliable way of assessing what he will do next. For days before the reshuffle, television channels ran wall-to-wall coverage of what was likely to happen. With one possible exception (the inclusion of former Mumbai Police Commissioner Satyapal Singh), nearly every prediction was wrong. Even after the new ministers were sworn in, journalists made fools of themselves by declaring that there would be no defence minister and that Arun Jaitley would keep the portfolio. I did not see one report that predicted the elevation of Nirmala Sitharaman. Weak governments leak all the time. During UPA II, everybody, from the PMO to the CAG to the lowliest junior minister, leaked. It is a mark of the strength of the Modi government that nothing ever gets out — unless he wants it to. Ministerial appointments are one example. Nobody expected Smriti Irani to be made HRD Minister, nobody thought she would be shifted to textiles and nobody predicted her sudden return to prominence. This is as true of the states. One reason why the BJP avoided naming a chief ministerial candidate before the UP elections was because Modi had Yogi Adityanath in mind all along. And hardly anyone guessed what he was up to. So it has been with many of the prime minister’s other initiatives. Who knew that he was flying off to Pakistan to wish Nawaz Sharif on his birthday? Even as massive an enterprise as demonetisation was kept secret till the moment that Modi went on TV to announce it. Disappointed journalists have made the point — in the aftermath of the media’s humiliation — that neither Modi nor his key aide, Amit Shah confide in the press. This is indisputable. But, to focus on the Modi-Shah duo’s allergy to the media is to miss the big picture. Many of the (completely wrong) reports about who was in and who was out emerged out of briefings from top BJP sources. Clearly these people also knew nothing. But equally some people must have known. Many of those being elevated were consulted. Modi’s bureaucrats, who apparently prepared performance reports about his ministers, must have had some idea of what was going to happen.

Katrina Kaif doesn’t make the same mistake twice, she makes it 5 or 6 times Agency | New Delhi
Katrina Kaif doesn’t make the same mistake twice, she makes it 5 or 6 times Happy-go-lucky actor Katrina Kaif has never shied away from expressing her true self to the fans on social media. That is precisely the reason why she has become one of the most popular celebrities on Instagram, even though she joined it only in April. And this time, more than Katrina’s drool-worthy picture, her caption is winning hearts. The caption reads, “I never make the same mistake twice …. I make it 5 or
6 times just to be sure.” Though we don’t know which mistake Kat is referring to here, we are sure this quote is going to resonate with a lot of movie buffs out there. Katrina is shooting for the last leg of Tiger Zinda Hai opposite Salman Khan in Abu Dhabi and she also shared a still from the sets on social media with the caption, “Desert life …” The actor had also shared a string of monochrome pictures with some unheard words as their headers like, “Anoesis”, “Oneirataxia” and “Melorism.” While Oneirataxia means the unability to distinguish between reality and fantasy, melorism refers to the belief that the world can be made a better place by the efforts of human beings. Having a good time understanding what that means! Well, talking of Katrina’s free-spiritedness, another post of her’s deserves a special mention here.

Indian captain Virat Kohli has kept his stranglehold on the top spot in the ICC ODI batsman rankings and has also equalled Sachin Tendulkar’s record of highest rating points pocketed by an Indian. India pacer Jasprit Bumrah has made handsome gains in the bowlers’ rankings, jumping as many as 27 places to be fourth behind Mitchell Starc, Imran Tahir and leader Josh Hazlewood. The latest rankings were released today, a day after India completed a 5-0 whitewash of hosts Sri Lanka in the ODI series. Kohli was in sublime touch in the series, scor-
ing two hundreds to complete 30 ODI centuries. Kohli, who is also top-ranked in T20Is, has increased his lead over Australia’s David Warner from 12 to 26 points and is now on 887 points, equalling the highest ODI rating points by an India batsman, recorded by Tendulkar in 1998. Rohit Sharma, the second highest run-maker in the se-
ries with 302 runs, and former captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni are both back in the top 10. Sharma, who struck two centuries in Sri Lanka, has gained five slots to reach ninth place while Dhoni’s 162 runs have lifted him two places to 10th position. Meanwhile, Bumrah has moved to a career-best fourth position in the bowlers’ rankings.

Indian badminton star PV Sindhu has turned producer for a digital film paying ode to her coach Pullela Gopichand for his relentless pursuit of excellence. For Teacher’s Day which falls on Tuesday, the Olympics silver medalist has tied up with sports drink brand Gatorade to celebrate those who keep pushing you. She has done so through a digital film titled #IHATEMYTEACHER. The story is that of Sindhu’s journey and her equation with Gopichand. “Coach has worked relentless-

Working with Gatorade on this film has hit close to home, and I can’t help but feel indebted to coach for his relentless pursuit of excellence,” Sindhu, ambassador of the drink brand, said in a statement. “This Teacher’s Day, I dedicate all my success to him and urge everyone else to also honour the driving force in their lives. Let’s hate our teachers for pushing us further and believing in us more than we believe in ourselves,” added Sindhu, who

JGujarat Chief Minister Mr. Vijaybhai Rupani today extended the Gujarat Textile Policy (GTP) for one more year, till September 03, 2018. Originally the GTP was announced for five years’ term from 2012 to 2017. The Chief Minister said that the objective of extending the policy for one-year is to strengthen the
entire chain of farmto-fiber-to-fabric-tofashion-to-foreign of cotton producing and clothes industries in which the Gujarat is the front runner. This was a positive response from the government to the representative committee of these units and stake holders. It should be noted that Gujarat has earned the prestige of becoming manufacturing hub of the
country, in which the textile industry has contributed the lion share. With an idea to give more scope to this field, the Gujarat Government had announced five-year long textile policy in year-2012. The GTP has completed its full term today, thus, the representative committee and former textile industrialists met the government and made representation.

According to the Congress, the NCP members from across the state, going to polls later this year, were “miffed” since two MLAs of the Sharad Pawarled party--Jayant Patel and Kandhal Jadeja--voted for the BJP nominee in the last month’s Rajya Sabha election against Congress leader Ahmed Patel. However, the NCP’s
official line was that only one of its two MLAs had voted for the BJP during the Rajya Sabha elections. The NCP and Congress contested the 2012 assembly polls in Gujarat as coalition partners. “Among prominent local leaders of the NCP who joined the Congress are its state spokesperson Manhar Patel, the core committee members Jeevanbhai Kabariya and Takhatsinh Solanki, Rajkot district president Lalitbhai Katodiya, Tarunbhai Gadhvi, Vijay Patel, and Rajesh Patel among others,” the Congress said in a statement.

Deceased MP Sultan Ahmed was ‘under stress’ due to CBI probe
angry over their party acting as the “B-team of the BJP”. “Several senior NCP leaders were formally inducted into the Congress along with 500 party workers in presence of state Congress unit president Bharatsinh Solanki and the party’s election in-charge
Ashok Gehlot,” it said. Solanki said the NCP members were unhappy over the “undemocratic” activities of the ruling BJP and they were not interested in continuing with the NCP party leadership. “The way the BJP and NCP came together during the
Rajya Sabha elections is a matter of a grave concern. NCP was an important ally in the UPA government at Centre and in Gujarat, as the party contested the 2012 polls with the Congress. So it was expected from its two MLAs to support Congress’ Rajya Sabha nominee Ahmed Patel, but they betrayed us,” Gehlot said. Ahmed Patel has welcomed the new inductees, saying their support will strengthen the party ahead of the assembly elections, as per the statement.
