MODI’S EYE ON
DISCIPLINE
n 1996, Municipal
Elections were
round the corner in
Punjab, Haryana,
Chandigarh and
Himachal Pradesh and Narendra
bhai was appointed in-charge for
these states. Modiji addressed all
the karyakartas in a meeting and
said “All the workers will func-
tion in their respective wards
only. No karyakarta will go into
any other ward.” And then, he
took time out to hold meetings
with every single ward individu-
ally in order to address specific
issues of each of the wards. Nar-
endra Modi visited my ward once
to meet all the workers. His in-
structions were already very clear
that no karyakarta from any other
ward should be present in the
meeting. Well, I have such vivid
memories of the day! One kar-
yakarta named Satinder Singh
from some other ward happened
to be present in the meeting of my
ward that day.
As soon as Modiji stepped into
the meeting room, he immedi-
ately pointed out that Satinder
Singh did not belong to my ward
and asked me “How is Satinder
present in this meeting?” I was
speechless. I was simply aston-
ished to see that Modiji recog-
nises people individually and
there was just one karyakarta
from another ward and Narendra
bhai was able to identify him.
Only he can have such a sharp
outlook towards life. Narendra
bhai is extremely attentive to-
wards his workers and his man-
agement skills, levels of efficien-
cy are beyond the ordinary. This
meticulous planning and execu-
tion resulted in us winning 15 out
of 20 seats in the municipal elec-
tions of Chandigarh.

MODI HAS SHOWN
PAKISTAN ITS PLACE
hen I was joining the
BJP, I met him late
night in his office.
Even though it was
10 o’clock, still the
office was buzzing with activity.
It was difficult for anyone to dis-
tinguish whether it was daytime
or late in the night around 10 pm
since the office so alive. He is a
workaholic and believes in spend-
ing most of his time thinking
about the nation, thinking about
the problems, trying to find a solu-
tion to those problems. I think
India needed a strong leader like
Narendra Modiji. He believed that
Pakistan had to be shown its place
and the surgical strike was a mas-
terstroke of Narendra Modi.

‘MODI HAI TO MUMKIN HAI…’ UNTOLD STORIES OF PM MODI — PART 51
APRIMEMINISTER
EXTRAORDINAIRE!
Our readers will get a look into some inspiring aspects of PM Modi’s persona
and his thought process through these stories. His sharp insights, his vision
and his innovative ideas coming from the ground realities of the nation he is
leading, make him the most successful and loved PM India has ever had!
PRIME MINISTER NARENDRA MODI
MODI’S DESI IDEA
TO SAVE TREES
M Modi said that it
was very essential
to curb deforesta-
tion and conduct
plantation drives. I
felt there was a great need to cre-
ate awareness among the citizens.
A tree plantation drive must be
held on a massive scale to in-
crease public involvement in this
cause. We took out the “Seva
Yatra” and I used to go out along
with the people in the yatra. Peo-
ple used to walk barefoot and I
too would do that intermittently.
We also got support from many
social and political organizations.
When the yatra had reached its
point of culmination, PM Modi
himself visited the event and ap-
preciated the initiative. He was
very pleased with the way the
drive was conducted. He also said
that this will help in maintaining
a continuous flow of water in
Narmadaji. When I told PM Modi
that we planted these many trees,
his first statement was “It is very
good to plant trees but it is equal-
ly important to save trees.”
He also said that several trees
tend to dry up during the summer
season due to lack of water. For
this he suggested that we must fill
up an earthern pot and dig it next
to the roots of tree. This will en-
sure that water reaches the roots
of a plant, drop by drop. Also,
there is no wastage of water if we
use this method of providing wa-
ter to the plant. What can we call
this other than PM Modi’s deep
love for the environment and his
interest in preservation of nature?
He suggested us methods that
would not only save the trees
from drying up, but would also
conserve water.

MODI’S TRIBUTE TO KARGIL MARTYR
fter the Kargil war,
Lok Sabha elec-
tions were to be
held and Modiji
suggested that we
select someone from one of the
martyrs’ families as a Lok Sab-
ha candidate of BJP from Hary-
ana. After a deep search spread
over five to six days, we sug-
gested a name to him and that
was of Sudha Yadav. And the
kind of thumping response we
received after she received the
ticket, is something that we can
never forget and it was indeed
worth the applause. Modiji de-
cided to convene a meeting to
arrange resources for Sudha Ya-
dav. Modiji started with saying
“When I go home, my mother
puts some money in my pocket
out of sheer love that she has for
me! So whenever I feel some-
one is doing something good, I
contribute money to that cause.”
And then he put his hand in his
pocket, and took out all the
money there was in it, and put it
in the kalash. What happened
next was unbelievable! A queue
started building up and moti-
vated by the gesture shown by
Modiji, people started dropping
money into the kalash. 7 lakh
rupees were collected in cash in
just that one meeting and we
won the election.

Jaisalmer
cientists have
unearthed fos-
silized parts of
the world’s oldest her-
bivorous dinosaur “Tha-
rosaurus” in Jaisalmer.
Scientists of the Geo-
logical Survey of India
have discovered these
fossils in the hills of
Jethwai village. It is
claimed that the fossil
found in Jaisalmer is
older than the fossil
found in China.
Earlier, dinosaur claw
marks were also discov-
ered in the hills of Thai-
yat village in Jaisalmer
around 2014. The latest
discovery has drawn the
attention of scientists.
The GSI started the
program in the year 2018
for the discovery of fos-
sils. During research in
the hills of Jethwai vil-
lage, the fossils of Tha-
rosaurus were found by
GSI officers Debasish
Bhattacharya, Krishna
Kumar, Pragya Pandey
and Triparna Ghosh. The
dinosaur fossil found in
the Thar Desert has been
named ‘Tharosaurus In-
dicus’ – The dinosaur of
Thar of India.
The scientists claimed
that the world’s oldest
vegetarian dinosaur used
to live here 167 million
years ago. GSI scientists
found fossils of the
spine, neck, trunk, tail
and ribs.

fore that because without
planning you will not en-
joy the journey,” said

ing the tourists in mind.

also increased a lot in the
state because the Sarvad-

ism in the state.

RAHUL GANDHI PUT ACROSS VOICE OF INDIA IN
LOK SABHA: CONG CHIEF MALLIKARJUN KHARGE
“MY FRIENDS IN BJP NEED NOT BE SCARED, MY
SPEECH IS NOT ON ADANI”: RAGA IN LOK SABHA
New Delhi: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge
on Wednesday said Rahul Gandhi put across the
voice of the people in Lok Sabha on the Manipur
issue and asked whether the Modi government feels the
suffering of the people or its politics is only aimed at getting
votes. He alleged that the people of Manipur are suffering
due to the “insensitivity” of the BJP. “Pandit Nehru had said
- ‘Bharat Mata’ are the people of India only. Our brothers
and sisters are facing violence in Manipur, they are suffering
due to the insensitivity of the BJP. “Does the Modi govern-
ment have nothing to do with the suffering of the people? Is
all their politics just aimed at getting votes,” he asked.
New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on
Wednesday took a veiled dig at PM Narendra Modi.
Gandhi referred to Congress accusations against the

Sir, When I spoke the last time, I focussed on Adani - maybe
your senior leader was pained...That pain might have had an
impact on you as well. I apologise to you for that. But I spoke
the truth. Today, my friends in BJP need not be scared
because my speech today is not on Adani...” Gandhi said.

Ashok Gehlot on
Wednesday, announced
that OBC reservation
limit will be increased
from 21% to 27% and
6% reservation will be
given for basic OBC for
which process will start
soon. “The OBC class
has been demanding for
a long time to increase 21
percent reservation to 27
percent and to reserve 6
percent reservation for
basic OBCs. It will be
tested. The state govern-
ment is in favour of con-
ducting caste census in
Rajasthan. It is the inten-
tion of the government
that whoever has the
right, should get that
much right,” he said
while addressing the

brations at Mangarh
Dham in Banswara on

Expressing deep con-
cern over Manipur vio-

“Tribals should get the
right to dream any dream
in country. Former PM
Indira Gandhi had a lov-
ing feeling towards the
tribals. She had taken
many important decisions
for tribal upliftment,” he
said. “The ideology of
BJP has set Manipur on
fire. People are being
killed, women are raped.
IfPMModiwants,thefire
in Manipur can be doused
in two-three days, but he
wants to keep the fire rag-
ing,” he said.
Gandhi also praised the
welfare schemes of Ra-
jasthan and said, “We
work to connect people,
andtheyspreadhatred.We
run a shop of love in the
market of hatred. Con-
gress is committed to ful-
fill the dreams of tribal
brothers. When I was
young, my grandmother
gave me a book about the
life of a tribal child and
how his family lived. This
was 45 years back. I asked
grandmother what is the
tribal word. She used to
love the tribals. Indira
Gandhi told me, they are
the first resident of India.
Tribals were the first in-
habitants of India. Earlier
tribals lived all over India.
They were martyred by
beingshothere.BJPwants
you to stay in the jungle
and the BJPshould gradu-
ally make the forests dis-
appear. You are tribal and
will remain so. Tribals
should get right to dream

D

evAnand and
Hema Malini
first acted to-
gether in the
super block-
buster Johny
Mera Naam, the movie re-
mains one of my all-time
favourites and we have al-
ready done a full feature
on it inThrowbackThurs-
day earlier. Of all the
Dev-Hema films like
Amir Garib, Joshila,
Tere Mere Sapne,
Chhupa Rustam, Sha-
reef Budmaash, Cen-
sor, Jaaneman and
Aman Ke Farishtey,
Johny Mera Naam is
by far the best. I
think there is some
film Sachhe ka
Bol Bala too.
Tere Mere
Sapne was a
movie before
its time and the questions it
throws up are very much rel-
evant today for the medical
profession and society. The
quandary of doctors who fight
for survival with their ideals
intact versus the funeral pyre
of principles to earn money is
beautifully portrayed by Dev
Anand and other doctors in the
movie. The path of the film
where moral decline impacts
the personal life negatively
leading to all-round despair
makes one think even to-
day as we see the situa-
tion all around us.
Doctors wear the
mask of a Life-Giver
and in real and reel
life we expect them
to deliver, disre-
garding the emo-
tional needs of the
doctor, who is, after
all, a human. Tere
Mere Sapne, with
Mumtaz as the
wife of the ideal-
istic Dr Dev
Anand and
Hema Malini
as the ailing
Superstar
of the ‘un-
principled
but cater-
ing to the
rich’Dr Dev, has some beauti-
ful songs, namely Jaise Radha
ne mala japi, Haan Maine
kasam li…
Chhupa Rustam has all the
features of a patriotic potboiler
and is a bit confusing as we
have a treasure hunt for aTem-
ple of Gold, abductions galore;
in fact multiple abductions of
the Hema Malini and a mys-
tery to boot. Shot in Himachal,
the movie was scenically a
treat and so was Hema Malini-
absolutely gorgeous. We have
Vijay Anand too in a cameo
role and of course, the com-
plete battery ofAjit, Premnath
and Prem Chopra, so the vil-
lainy is a scream. Dheere se
jana khatiyan mein by Kishore
Kumar is funny even today,
Hum Chhupe Rustom hain is
delightfully apt as it leads to
Hema’s abduction.
Jaaneman has Hema Malini
in a double role whereas, un-
like Seeta aur Geeta, she plays
a negative/positive role. Dev
Anand plays a taxi driver and
he wore the uniform the entire
film, except the climax and
believe me, Dev Anand did
bring his own style to the drab
taxi driver uniform. It features
a song Allahabad mein paida
huyi main which tickled me to
no end as I too was born in the
holy city of Allahabad now
Prayagraj (like crores of others
but you understand what I
mean).
Amir Garib features Dev
Anand playing Robin Hood
where he lives a dual life.
Meets Hema, both fall in love
and then we have another mys-
tery about a rich dad and then
a dead dad. None of the songs
made much of a mark on me
so I am not mentioning them
here. Joshila has one of my fa-
vourite songs, Kiska rasta
dekhe… the movie is a murder
and romantic mystery with a
lot of twists and turns. We
have Hema Malini, Raakhee,
Pran, Padma Khanna, Bindu
and at the centre of it all Dev
Anand, who is very stylish
with sunglasses and that debo-
nair style.
Shareef Budmash is again
full of twists and turns, im-
posters with an Indian govern-
ment’s plan for a new kind of
super aircraft thrown in.Aman
ke Farishtey has a patriotic
plot which includes a police
officer, a dancer and a jailbird.
Censor is a film that satirises
film censorship in India along
with Dev Anand Shammi Ka-
poor, Hema, Rekha and Jackie
Shroff. Johny Mera Naam had
everything – the plot, the stars,
the songs, the music, the vil-
lain – perfection personified!
Let’s just watch it…again!

he Food and Hos-
pitality Awards,
meticulously or-
ganised by First
India and
Bharat24, Vision
of New India and
sponsored by Bikaji, is set to un-
fold with grandeur on Saturday,
August 12 at Rambagh Palace in
Jaipur.
The esteemed Indian television
actress Mallika Singh will grace
the occasion with her presence
as celebrity guest and will
present the awards to deserv-
ing individuals and organi-
zations that have shown
exceptional dedication
in the food and hospi-
tality industry.
The event promises
to be a showcase of
excellence, as in-
dividuals and
organizations
that have
showcased re-
m a r k a b l e
d e d i c a t i o n
within the
food and hos-
pitality industry
will be hon-
oured.
M a l l i k a
Singh has
carved her
name in
the annals of the industry through
her notable portrayals of Devi
Radha and Devi Lakshmi in the
acclaimed TV series “Rad-
haKrishn” and “Jai Kanhaiya Lal
Ki,” respectively.
Mallika Singh’s presence in the
Hindi TV industry has garnered
immense popularity, positioning
her as one of its standout
and captivating fig-
ures. Her consistent
delivery of exceptional perfor-
mances has ensured her promi-
nence, and she continues to be at
the forefront of the industry, dem-
onstrating her undeniable potential
and leaving an enduring impact.
Notably, Mallika Singh played
a pivotal role in Star Bharat’s cel-
ebrated mythological drama series
“Radha Krishn,” which made its
debut in 2018 and stands as one of
Star Bharat’s lengthiest and cher-
ished shows. Throughout her jour-
ney within the show, Mallika Sin-
gh has fostered strong bonds with
her fellow cast members, and their
collective spirit has been instru-
mental in overcoming challenges.
Both her on-set and off-set experi-
ences have contributed immensely
to her artistic growth, making her
a well-rounded artist.
Mallika Singh’s versatility is
evident in her portrayal of various
roles. Her appearances encompass
not only her portrayal of Aameen
in Zee TV’s “Janbaaz Sindbad” in
2016 but also a spectrum of recur-
ring characters in “RadhaKrishn.”
From Sita and Lakshmi to Bhude-
vi, Ashtalakshmi, Shitala, Alak-
shmi, Vallabha, Vrindavanesh-
wari, Madhavi, and Kishori, she
has showcased her acting prowess
with finesse.
Her journey took another com-
pelling turn in October 2021 when
she reprised her role as Devi Lak-
shmi in the prequel series “Jai
Kanhaiya Lal Ki.” This series,
which aired on both Star Bharat
and Disney+ Hotstar, concluded
its run in July 2022, adding an-
other noteworthy chapter to her
career. Mallika Singh’s indelible
contributions to the television in-
dustry have not only earned her
admiration but have also left a
lasting legacy, firmly establishing
her as a revered figure within the
entertainment landscape.

ijay Deverakonda and Samantha Ruth
Prabhu are star-crossed lovers in the
highly anticipated trailer for the Shiva
Nirvana directorial. Produced by Mythri
Movie Makers, the trailer for the film
reminds you of the old-school romance
movies that are no longer getting made. Meanwhile, the
film is all set to release on September 1. The makers have
been treating the audience with glimpses of the stunning
chemistry between the two leading stars.
Early in the trailer, there is a reference to Mani Ratnam’s
Roja. The film is made to take you back to a time when
romantic comedies were plentiful, with the biggest stars
getting paired opposite one another.
‘Kushi’ is as cute as it can get. The trailer takes the
audiences into the heartwarming world of Aaradhya and
Viplav who create a relatable but adorable world of ro-
mance. Vijay Deverakonda and Samantha’s chemistry
in the trailer is simply unmissable. Vijay is seen cutely
pursuing Samantha. It has beautiful shots
of Kashmir. The trailer reminds us of
Alai Payuthey because the couple,
who is madly in love with each other,
get married against the family’s wish-
es. However, later, things go downhill.

Ariana
cheats her
husband?
A
mid the public divorce
of American actor
Ethan Slater with wife
Lilly Jay, Ariana
Grande seems to be acting pretty
insensitive on the matter. Days
after the reports of the two dating
each other came out, Ethan’s wife
had jarring comments to make
about the singer. She had said that
her family was only ‘collateral
damage’ for Ariana. Despite all
the backlash that the American
singer has been receiving for her
affair with Ethan, it seems like
she is in no mood to retreat. Ac-
cording to Entertainment To-
night, the Wicked co-stars con-
tinue to date as the legal pro-
ceedings of the divorce take
place. The word broke out
on Twitter, and Ariana has
been facing backlash yet
again. Once before,
when the dating ru-
mors of the two had
come out, theAmer-
ican singer was
criticized for her
actions but yet
she remains
unaffected.

the first day of the shoot, I was

on my shoulder, I turned to see
and it was Hrithik in Rohit’s

to see him. It only then struck
me that Hrithik was on set all
along, it was just that I did not
recognise him.”
