19 new MoS, Javadekar gets elevated, 5 ministers sacked

Modi now has a bigger Govt Subhash Ramrao Bhamre, Jasvant Sinh Bhabhor, Mansukh Mandaviya, Faggan Singh Kulaste, Ajay Tamta, Anupriya Singh Patel, and Krishna Raj. Anupriya Patel, the Apna Dal MP from Mirzapur in Uttar Pradesh, is the daughter of party founder Sone Lal Patel, she has been veering the Uttar Pradesh party towards the BJP in the run up to the elections. There is widespread speculation that the party will merge with the BJP before the

elections. In Uttar Pradesh, the BJP is hoping to attract Other Backward Castes (OBC) votes by inducting Apna Dal MP from Mirzapur Anupriya Patel into the Modi cabinet. However, Apna Dal has its problems: it is in the throes of internal turmoil due to a feud between Anupriya and her mother, Krishna Patel. While Krishna had ‘expelled’ Anupriya from the party in May 2015, both Krishna and Anupriya still claim to be national

president of Apna Dal. The rift in the party, which has two MPs and is BJP’s ally at the Centre, surfaced in October 2014 when Anupriya had said that her mother’s decision to make her elder sister Pallavi Patel the party’s vice-president was illegal and arbitrary. Minister of State for Environment Prakash Javadekar was promoted to the Cabinet rank in the latest reshuffle of the Narendra Modi government. He took oath today at a function at the Rashtrapati Bhavan. Javadekar had earlier held the Information and Broadcasting portfolio also, but Finance Finance Minister Arun Jaitley was handed over this ministry.

The rath yatra, having chariots of Lord Jagannath, his brother Balbhadra and sister Subhadra, will roll out at around 7.30 AM tomorrow from the 400year old Jagannath temple

in Jamalpur of the walled city. The total length of rath yatra procession stretches up to 1.5 km and covers around 15 km route before returning to the temple after an almost 11hour journey in the walled city during which it passes through several Muslim dominated areas, such as Jamalpur, Kalupur, Del-

hi Chakla, Shahpur, Prem Darwaja and Dariyapur. The rath yatra will take a break for afternoon meal in Saraspur area of the city, which is considered as the Lord’s maternal home, where around five lakh devotees will take food before starting their return journey at around 1.30 PM.

This will be formally announced by the AICC (All India Congress Committee) in a day or two,” an informed source said. The reports came even as party spokespersons refused to say anything

on the speculation going on in the media regarding Priyanka’s expanded role – something which analysts see as Priyanka’s entry into full-time politics. “We refuse to indulge in speculation. If and when a decision is taken regarding the role of Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, we shall be happy to share it (with you),” Congress spokesman RS Surjewala had told the media earlier in the day. Congress leaders have so far remained tight-lipped over reports that Priyanka Gandhi would be the party’s star campaigner in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh and also on the issue of elevation of Rahul Gandhi as the party chief.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s Principal Secretary Rajendra Kumar and four others, arrested in an alleged corruption case, were on Tuesday remanded to five days CBI custody by a special court which was told by the agency that the IAS officer was “intimidating” witnesses. Special CBI Judge Arvind Kumar sent Kumar, Deputy Secretary in Kejriwal’s office Tarun Sharma, Kumar’s close aide Ashok Kumar and owners of a private firm, Sandeep Kumar and Dinesh Gupta, to CBI custody. During the hearing, CBI sought 10 days custodial interroga-

We cannot have a fair investigation without arresting him as he was intimidating witnesses,” the CBI prosecutor told the court.

Where to after 25 years of reforms?

Until a few years ago, a favourite story I would tell about India’s economic reforms was based on the telecom revolution. It was that an entire generation of hundreds of millions had grown up in something akin to a parallel universe. Surely, not having to ever resort to contacts or bribes to get something as basic as a phone—in fact, having quite the opposite condition of being wooed by service providers—must have caused a sea change in the psyche and life views of these new Indians? The subsequent scams and scandals that enveloped the telecom sector (among others) led me to stop citing this story of shifting attitudes to, say, corruption. Of course, similar transformations from scarcity to plenty have impacted India in many other sectors, including automobiles, air travel and so on. But the ongoing transformation in public attitudes towards the role of markets and the private sector suffered a grievous blow from which it is still recovering. This perceived ambivalence in public support for reforms has been mirrored among political parties, depending on whether they are in government or opposition. Which is why, even after a quarter of a century, India’s economic reforms are still very much a work in progress. Until recently, reforms at the national level had either been compelled by crisis, as in 1991, or attempted stealthily by a few leaders in successive governments. In addition to many other hurdles, they had to battle their own parties and coalitions, often unsuccessfully. The political dynamics surrounding economic reforms have been evolving. The past 15 years have already seen a metamorphosis at the regional level, with many state-level leaders repeatedly demonstrating that better economics leads to better political results. This was corroborated in a 2011 paper by Poonam Gupta and Arvind Panagariya, which documented better electoral results for incumbent parties in highgrowth states. At the national level, after a deadlock of a dozen years, there is traction once again. Parliament has recently passed several bills of consequence, with others on the horizon. A breakthrough on the biggest of them all, the goods and services tax (GST), is beginning to look feasible. The economy has begun to sizzle again, being lauded worldwide as the fastest growing among the bigger ones. Investment has also picked up and foreign direct investment (FDI) is pouring in. India’s strengths in services holds great promise for the future, and in fact are already contributing immensely to growth. But job creation remains far behind what is needed. The main reason for this is India’s relatively middling manufacturing sector. Despite having made big strides in some areas such as automobiles, India lags behind many middle income countries, with manufacturing contributing only 17% to the gross domestic product, compared to 30% in China and 28% in Thailand. According to Harvard University professor Gita Gopinath, “The fact that India has moved from an agricultural economy to a service-driven one with almost no growth in industry is not a virtue.” Some of the traditional barriers to manufacturing growth, like infrastructure, have seen much improvement.

SC Admits Appeal Challenging Verdict on Salman’s 2002 Hit and Run Case

The Supreme Court on Tuesday admitted Maharashtra government’s appeal challenging Bombay High Court verdict acquitting Salman Khan in the 2002 hit-and-run case. However, the court refused to fast-track the final hearing. The Attorney General (AG) Mukul Rohtagi on behalf of the Maharashtra Government urged the court to put the hearing on fast track but the SC bench headed by Justice JS Khehar refused. ”If you want hearing on fast track, you can approach CJI for the same,” Justice Khehar told AG, said.

‘all charges’, overturning the trial court’s order sentencing him for five years. In April this year, asking the Supreme Court to dismiss the Maharashtra government’s petition challenging his acquittal, Salman Khan said that the Mumbai Police was trying to falsely implicate him in the case.

Mumbai Jul 5 () Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan has heaped praise on his “Dangal” co-star Sakshi Tanwar. Sakshi essays the role of Aamir’s wife in the wrestling drama, which is slated to release on December 23. The 51-year-old star says the film’s director Nitesh Tiwari was impressed with Sakshi’s test following which she became a part of the project. “My mother watches television serials and she loves Sakshi. I told Nitesh (Tiwari) to try her (Sakshi for the role of my wife in ‘Dangal’). Nitesh liked the test and that’s how she came on board. She is fantastic and unbeliev-

able. She gives the best shot in just one take,” Aamir told reporters here. “She (Sakshi) is skilled, she feels the emotions while doing the scene. I found it rare in an actor. I was struggling and she was all OK. I was taking seven-eight takes and she used to do things in one take. She is such a joy to work with,” the “Dhoom

Here’s a news to rejoice; unlike popular beliefs, pasta consumption does not contribute to obesity. On the contrary, it is associated with a decrease in Body Mass Index (BMI). A study, conducted by the Department of Epidemiology, IRCCS Neuromed in Pozzilli, Italy, does justice to this fundamental element of the Mediterranean diet, showing how pasta consumption is actually associated with a reduced likelihood of both general and abdominal obesity. The research examined over 23,000 people recruited in two large epidemiological studies: Moli-sani and INHES (Italian Nutrition & Health Survey), conducted by the same Department. ”By analysing anthropometric data of the participants and their eating habits, we have seen that consumption of pasta, contrary to what many think, is not associated with an increase in body weight, rather the opposite.

Modi Cabinet expansion: The Ahmedabad to turn “zero-negotiations for home-buyers before Diwali importance of Parshottam Rupala market” H.S. Agency | Ahmedabad Sunvilla News | Ahmedabad

Parshottam Rupala, 62, belongs to the Kadva faction of the Patidar community and is believed to be an Amit Shah loyalist who was elected to the Rajya Sabha only last month. Since then his inclusion in the cabinet was a certainty. Belonging to the Kadva faction of the Patidar community, Rupala was part of Modi’s campaign team in Varanasi during 2014 Lok Sabha elections. Rupala is considered a powerful Patidar leader who can infuse a sense of confidence into BJP workers at the state level. The Patidar agitation and the embarrassing protests against BJP leaders across the state during many public functions have hit the morale of party workers. Recently, during the BJP

Rupala is considered a powerful Patidar leader who can infuse a sense of confidence into BJP workers at the state level

state executive meeting in Mehsana – the epicentre of Patidar quota stir – Rupala was heard asking the party workers and leaders to work with confidence for the party without fear of the Patidar protests. He had said that if the party could hold its two-day executive in ‘Mehsana’, the workers could easily work in other parts of the state. Rupala – from Amreli dis-

In the next three months, hefty discounts being provided to home-buyers will completely disappear, as Ahmedabad turns into a “zero-negotiations market” before Diwali, say real-estate experts while pointing to the rising sales and escalating prices of new homes being built in and around the city. “A year ago, real-estate developers used to provide discounts in the range of 15-20 percent. Currently, the quantum of discounts have come down to 5-7 percent. In the next three months, negotiations will completely go out of the table, as developers will refuse to give discounts,” said Saurabh Mehrotra, National Director (Advisory Services), Knight Frank, a global real-estate consultancy firm.

A Syrian national, part of 18-member crew of an Iraq origin ship, is missing from somewhere between Hazira port and Kandla port since June 18. Both the port authorities are refusing to own up the case compelling the Kandla Marine police to register a missing complaint for further investigation. The security agencies are tracking the case closely given that there is no trace of the person identified as Ali Adel Ibrahim, a fitter on board,

as yet. Sources said that following some dispute Ibrahim was locked up in the cabin of the ship MV Melimass and probably jumped off the ship through the window of the cabin mid sea somewhere around 28 nautical miles off the coast. “Ibrahim is a fitter in the ship. It is highly unlikely that he survived after jumping into the mid sea. The closest ship was 28 nautical miles from him so his survival chances are dim. It has been more than two weeks and there

is no trace of him. Still, we have alerted the local police and other agencies responsible for guarding the coast,” said a senior police officer. A letter purportedly written by an official of the shipping management firm, dated June 24, says otherwise, “Ibrahim was missed on board and suspected has swam fm Hazira Anchoage Area (sic) upto the shore, since they noticed his presence on board after sailing fm Hazira port on 17.06.2016 while dropping anchor at outer anchorage position.” The letter also mentions that the “ship owner and shipping management company have taken all necessary measures and notified all concerned parties of this incident…but we are surprised fm the reaction of the local agent at Hazira who freed completely agent responsibility fm this matter (sic).”

Minister Narendra Modi’s ministerial council, on Tuesday said he had no idea on the reason of his ouster, but admitted that he was working in a hostile environment. The minister said that three months back, in a letter to Gujarat Chief Minister Anandiben Patel, he had threatened to quit the post if his complaints regarding tribal welfare in the state were not addressed. “I have no idea why I was asked to leave,

will seek clarity from the party high command. As a tribal minister, I did all that was required for the benefit of tribal community and regions, under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” Vasava said. “But I was working in a hostile condition in my own ministry,” he said. During the Union Cabinet expansion and reshuffle on Tuesdsay, Modi dropped Vasava and in his place inducted another tribal face from the state, Jas-

out strongly against the Gujarat government for not acting on his repeated pleas to improve the condition of tribals in the state’s eastern belt. “The Centre’s Eklavya schools are not functioning properly in many states, with Gujarat being among the worst. Being my home state, I was particularly concerned about this and wrote to Chief Minister Anandiben Patel but received no response from her,” he said.

Gujarat On Alert After Syrian Man Goes Missing From Cargo Ship

Sunvilla News | Ahmedabad

Security agencies in Gujarat have been alerted after a Syrian man on board a cargo ship was reported to be missing from near the Hazira port in South Gujarat. According to officials, the Cooks Island-registered ship coming from Egypt had offloaded rock phosphate, used in fertilisers, at Hazira port on June 18 and had left for Kandla port in Kutch for its next consignment. About 25 nautical miles off Hazira port, officials said that following a tiff between some crew members, the Syrian man Ali named Ibrahim Aden was locked

up in a cabin. When the shop reached Kandla port on July 2, the staff informed the Kandla coastal police station that they had found Ibrahim missing from the cabin. A team of investigators which examined the ship said that the window of the cabin had been broken indicating that Ibrahim may have jumped off the ship. The crew of 19 comprised of seven Indians and the rest were Syrians. Marine police in Hazira and other security agencies have been alerted by the Kandla coastal police and a search operation has been launched in the coastal areas for the missing Syrian.

Paternity doubts make DNA testing big business in Gujarat

Sunvilla News | Ahmedabad

Naran Vasoya was driven to desperation by a nagging suspicion that he had nursed for decades. Suspicious of his wife’s fidelity and the parentage of his 33-year-old son Dipesh, he finally hired two assassins for Rs 5 lakhs last month to kill his son. His arrest on June 26 by the Rajkot police for the inexplicable crime sent shock waves across Gujarat. But experts say that though extreme, his angst over his child’s lineage was

not entirely uncommon. Many parents in the state, silently battling such similar anguish, are now approaching laboratories for paternity checks of their children. The upshot has been a mushrooming of centres for collection of DNAs across the state. By rough estimates, some 100-odd such centres have sprung up in Gujarat in the last four years. Many local pathological centres are also extending similar facilities, collecting DNAs for testing in laboratories located in cities outside the state.

The 10 per cent reservation provided by Gujarat government in jobs and education for economically weaker section (EWS) from unreserved category is “unconstitutional and violative of Supreme Court order”, the high court was told today. This submission was made in the Gujarat High Court by the lawyers of petitioners who have challenged the va-

lidity of the reservation for EWS announced in the wake of Patel quota stir. A Division Bench of Chief Justice R Subhash Reddy and Justice V M Pancholi heard their submission and later adjourned the hearing. Lawyer I H Syed said the ordinance (on EWS quota) is a reminder of the Supreme Court’s 2000 ruling on similar Government decisions wherein the SC said.
