High Court refuses to
lift stay by single bench
RCA ELECTIONS
First India Bureau
Jaipur: A division
bench of Acting Chief
Justice MM Srivastava
and Justice VK Bhar-
wani in the Rajasthan
High Court on Monday
refused to lift the stay
on the RCA elections
ordered by a single
bench, saying that the
petitioners should place
their objections before
the single bench.
The division bench
has now posted the next
hearing on the appeal
after a week. But now
the hearing will proba-
bly take place only after
Diwali vacation.
Hearing the appeal of
RCA, the division bench
said that the single
bench will hear the mat-
ter on October 11, in
which case the appel-
lant should present its
side in the single bench.
In the appeal, RCA
said that the single
bench has stayed the
RCA after the election
process started.
Whereas once the elec-
tion process starts, it
cannot be stopped.
Also, the district un-
ions can approach the
Ombudsman and the
arbitrator with their
objections.
However, no allega-
tions have been made
directly against the
election officer. There-
fore, the order of the
single bench should be
quashed.

MSY CHANGED UP’S POLITICAL CONTOUR
amajwadi Par-
ty patriarch
Mulayam Singh
Yadav, who
passed away at
the age of 82, will always be
remembered for his astute-
ness which changed the
political landscape of Uttar
Pradesh. The wrestler
from Saifai, his village in
Etawah, spearheaded the
movement to bring back-
ward classes into the main-
stream of state politics in
the Nineties. When the
Ram Janmabhoomi move-
ment began to peak he took
the BJP head-on and went
to the extent of ordering
police firing on kar sevaks
gathered in Ayodhya in
1990 in which several were
killed. That single incident
led to the gradual margin-
alisation of Congress and
rise of the BJP in the Hindi
heartland as caste and reli-
gious politics took root.
The Ayodhya movement
gave Mulayam the politi-
cal opportunity to endear
himself to Muslims as
their protector and well-
wisher. His socialist image
and Muslim-Yadav combi-
nation helped him become
the chief minister of UP
three times beginning in
1989 when Congress was
voted out.
Mulayam Singh Yadav
was a politician of the old
school and maintained cor-
dialrelationswithhispoliti-
cal rivals across the aisle.
Ironically
, Bahujan Samaj
PartyleaderMayawatiprob-
ably became the only excep-
tion to the rule. In 1991 Mu-
layam had helped Kanshi
Ram win the Lok Sabha by-
electionfromEtawahforthe
Dalit leader’s foray in na-
tional politics for a future
OBC—Dalit—Muslim com-
bination. After Mulayam
formed the Samajwadi Par-
ty in 1992, he joined hands
withKanshiRamtosuccess-
fully stop the BJP jugger-
naut in 1993. The infamous
State Guest House case of
1995changedtheSP-BSPdy-
namics until Mayawati al-
lied with Akhilesh for the
2019 Lok Sabha polls.

he demise of Mulayam
Singh Yadav is the end of
an era of politics. He was a
genuine person with a very
kind heart. I believe this,
understandingthewarmth
of a relationship, he was a
rare person to take care of
the relationship diligently
.
I do not remember when I
first met him, but from the
early days of politics, I had
a close relationship with
him.Lateron,thisrelation-
ship deepened and went on
getting absorbed in deep
meanings of love and re-
spect. We may have always
been separate under the
political parties, but the af-
fectionandloveandrespect
that he gave, can never be
forgotten. I remember he
also suffered a lot during
the emergency and was put
in jail. After the formation
of Bharatiya Janata Party
,
the National Democratic
Front of BJP and Lok Dal
was formed in Uttar
Pradesh. Its President was
Mulayam Singh Yadav and
I was the General Secre-
tary
. We worked together
on many levels. While in
politics, I also felt closely
that not only did he have a
geographicalandsocialun-
derstanding of Uttar
Pradesh, but his political
vision was also very broad.
I also saw an attachment in
his mind for the workers
from the very beginning.
Even during elections, he
used to interact with them
everynowandthenanddur-
ing this discussion new av-
enueswerealwaysopened.I
also constantly felt his deep
attachment to nationalism.
Many times I used to jok-
ingly tell him that you
should have been in our
party
, and he used to laugh.
Hedidnotsayanything,but
I know that on many levels
his vision was related to the
cultural concerns of the na-
tion and society
.
There are very few grass-
roots leaders in politics at
this time, and hence they
are remembered even more
in such times. He was a tru-
ly grassroots leader who
connected with the masses.
Not everyone called him
‘Netaji’fornothing,theybe-
lieved he had amazing lead-
ership qualities and took
everyonealong.Thatiswhy
everyone was also ready to
work under his leadership.
Remember,whenMayawati
ji was the Chief Minister in
Uttar Pradesh, I used to be
the Minister of Public
Works Department there at
thattime.InEtawah,wegot
the buildings made by the
Public Works Department.
In those days an All India
Conference of the Sama-
jwadi Party was going to be
heldthere.Hehadcalledme
and requested to provide
those buildings to the peo-
ple coming to the confer-
ence and make some other
minorarrangements.There
was no question of not ac-
cepting his request. I per-
sonally went there and
made arrangements imme-
diately after asking my
principal secretary
. I re-
member whenever he met,
he used to mention it. Al-
thoughitwasnotsuchabig
deal,butitwashispersonal-
ity that if anyone cooperat-
ed at some level, he would
never forget it.
In Uttar Pradesh, when I
wasaministerinthePublic
Works Department, once
duringthebudgetspeechin
the House, a Samajwadi
Party MLA spoke some
rudewordsaboutmewhich
were far from the truth. I
too had resigned then for
the sake of my reputation.
I remember Mulayam Sin-
ghjicalledmeimmediately
and said that I should not
have resigned directly on
this matter. He also repri-
manded the MLA of his
party in strong words. He
publicly said that talking
like this about Kalraj ji is
against the dignity of a
chaste person like him.
He was very much above
party politics and for peo-
ple who were close to him,
he would not think twice
before doing anything,
even if it was beyond the
party line. There are many
other such incidents with
him in which I gave him
some advice politically
and he accepted it without
thinking. Rather, at times
he used to discuss with me,
even when he had to make
some big decisions under
his own team. I remember
that he never even forgot
my birthday! Wherever I
would have been, but he
would not take rest until
he found me on the phone
and congratulated me. I
wonder, where is the per-
son who maintains such
relationships and under-
stands the dignity of rela-
tionships! I also accept
thatwhenhewastheChief
Minister, whenever he was
told any kind of work, he
did it immediately and he
accepted my opinion, my
words even at such levels
which no one can think of.
He was deeply interested
in the development of vil-
lages and in the upliftment
of the poor. Along with the
expansionof basicfacilities
in the villages, he was also
closely engrossed with the
traditional life there. Per-
sonally
, his relations with
thepeopleweresodeepthat
even if his party leaders
joined any party later, they
never broke ties with him.
So many memories and an-
ecdotes of him are still
flashing in my mind at this
time. I believe that the inti-
macy and affinity that re-
mained with him is an in-
valuable asset of my life.
Hisdemisehasleftavoid
which can never be filled.
His merging into infinity
means going away of a per-
son who has followed the
principles and dignity of
relationships. His absence
is a personal void that will
never be filled.

Sharat K Verma
New Delhi: Arvind Ke-
jriwal once staged a
road dharna in front of
Rail Bhawan in Lu-
tyens’ Delhi. He had
been on a dharna in
front of Rail Bhavan
with his party leaders
during the night in cold
weather. Then he called
himself an anarchist.
However, later his atti-
tude changed after con-
testing elections, win-
ning and forming the
government in Delhi.
He had stopped calling
himself an anarchist
and started talking
about the system of the
constitution. Now again
he has started a bid to
create chaos and not
only is he making state-
ments indiscriminately
,
at the same time he and
other leaders of her
party have also started
ignoring the Constitu-
tion and the traditions
of democratic politics.
Recently there have
been two incidents in
which he and his party
insulted the President
by not following the pro-
tocol attached to the
President. As per tradi-
tion, on October 2, on
Gandhi Jayanti, the
Chief Minister and
Lieutenant Governor of
Delhi have to be present
and welcome the Presi-
dent. This time Kejriwal
was absent from the
program. His Deputy
Chief Minister Manish
Sisodia did arrive but
he also did not stop to
welcome the President.
When the Lieutenant
Governor wrote a letter
about this, Kejriwal did
not feel the need to reply
to the metter.
The second incident
is from Chandigarh,
where President Drau-
padi Murmu had ar-
rived to take part in the
parade on the occasion
of Air Force Day. The
President was to be wel-
comed before the Air
Force parade, for which
Chief Minister Bhag-
want Mann was invited
from the Raj Bhavan. He
also accepted the invita-
tion but he did not come
to attend the ceremony
.
Instead he went to Guja-
rat to campaign for his
party. On October 2, on
the occasion of Gandhi
Jayanti, Kejriwal had
gone to Gujarat for cam-
paigning. Moreover, the
kind of language Kejri-
wal has used for the
Lieutenant Governor of
Delhi and opposition
parties is also no less
objectionable.
Is ‘petty politics’ the new political ideology of Kejriwal?

Rajendra Chhabra
Jaipur: It has been
seen that young IAS,
who have been appoint-
ed first or second time
Collector of a district
are full of enthusiasm,
are highly motivated
and look to undertake a
new step for better-
ment. With this ‘new
thinking’, they carve a
niche for themselves in
the bureaucracy and
polity alike. One such
young IAS is the 2016
batch officer Ravindra
Goswami, who has been
appointed as Bundi Col-
lector, for the first time.
He has taken up a
new project to better
the handwriting of pri-
mary class students. He
believes that since
handwriting is suffer-
ing in the early age, due
to this, ultimately aca-
demic outcomes suffer.
He believes that bad
handwriting is a hurdle
to development.
Primary class stu-
dents of government
schools sit on the floor
and write in their copies
by placing them on their
laps, as they are devoid
of tables and desks re-
sulting in unequal dis-
tribution of force on the
pencil and notebook,
which damages the
hand writing. Goswa-
mi’s project revolves
around providing desks
to school kids and ar-
rangements are made
through donations. One
desk of steel and iron
costs an average of Rs
900 and one desk can
accommodate 5 chil-
dren.
There are total 1,200
primary schools in
Bundi and among these,
6,000 desks have been
provided in 400 schools.
Goswami says that by
January 2023, the pro-
ject would be imple-
mented in all 1,200
schools as local
‘Bhamashahs’ have
come forward to sup-
port the project.
Goswami is excited
that a positive result of
the project has come
forward and in reality
the handwriting of chil-
dren has improved
manifolds. It has mere-
ly been 4 months since
Goswami took over the
reins of Bundi Collec-
tor and apart from the
handwriting improve-
ment project, he is also
working on two more
missions - ‘Coffee with
Collector’ and ‘Behta-
reen Bundi’.
Coffee with Collector
means an informal con-
versation with people
wherein, people from
different walks of life
and communities are
called in groups and
are given a chance to
say what they want to
without any worry. As
a result, people also
share their opinions
and advices.
In the ‘Behtareen Bun-
di’ mission, the people
of the city are made to
realise that their city is
their home. Whatsapp
groups have been creat-
ed details of all prob-
lems, including cleanli-
ness related issues, are
noted. The monitoring
of thisaspectisassigned
to officers are worked
upon.Themissionisget-
ting peoples’ support in
every possible manner.
Goswami, who be-
came IAS after leaving
post-graduation study
of Surgery, is a native
of Jaipur. Before head-
ing to Bundi, he has
served on the important
position of Joint Secre-
tary in DoP from July
2020 to July 2022 in the
State Secretariat.
Bundi Collector’s new initiatives resonate with locals!

Jaipur: After successful
organisation of Invest
Rajasthan Summit, CM
Ashok Gehlot seems
quite satisfied. Gehlot,
while thanking all
those associated with
it tweeted, “I express
my thanks to all the
investors, CII, officers,
employees, administra-
tion, general public,
media persons includ-
ing everyone for making
Invest Rajasthan a
success. This summit
has projected an image
of forward and develop-
ing Rajasthan and I
am happy that it will
bring new employment
opportunities for our
youth.” On the rhetoric
about Adani’s coming
to the summit, CM said,
“Although a section of
media Opposition
tried to create unneces-
sary controversy about
some investors who
attended the summit,
our leader Rahul Gandhi
had said that Congress
party isn’t against trade
investment, but
against benefiting any
particular person.”

AGAINST TRADE, BUT

Churu: Former CM
Vasundhara Raje
while addressing a
rally in Churu on
Monday, said that if
the Code of Conduct is
removed, then only
350 days are left for the
Gehlot government.
“Congress is not Raj
for the people. There is
no rule. Still do not
consider the enemy
weak. Do not divide
into castes. If we fight
unitedly, historical
victoryiscertain,”she
said.
The former CM said
that Gehlot govern-
ment has failed in
every field. Under his
leadership, the State is
number one in atroci-
ties on women, cor-
ruption, inflation, die-
sel petrol prices, ex-
pensive electricity
and paper leaks. “And
these people are also
number one in mak-
ing false promises,”
she said.
Raje was speaking
at the statue unveiling
ceremony of former
sarpanch Late Bhan-
war Lal Jyani and so-
cial worker Dayala
Ram Ji Jyani in Bam-
bu village of Churu

INTERNAL TURMOIL FOR CM POST IN CONG
RAJE TO CONDUCT AERIAL SURVEY TODAY
Raje said that on one hand, the State is lagging
behind in the race for development, while on
the other, the ministers and MLAs of the Congress
government are in the race to become the CM. All
the blame for its failures is being put on the Modi
government, which in the country, established new
records of development that are discussed not only
in the country, but the entire world.
Jhalawar: Vasundhara Raje will conduct an aerial
survey today regarding crop damage due to rains.
She will land land on parade ground at 12:30 pm and
discuss the crop damage with the District Collector
and party workers. She will return to Jaipur in the
evening, said District BJP President Sanjay Tau.
Our Rajasthan has lost its sight.
Farmers are repenting. Where
our fight should be against
crime, atrocities, injustice and
terror, this government is fighting with
its own people to save itself.

Jaipur: The Winter
Season sale of Shree

allotting 266 shops of
this market to the Ti-
betan Refugee Hosiery

ion last year. Under the
leadership of Union
President Lhamo, vari-
ous office bearers of the
organisation met RHB

the 266 Tibetan shop-
keepers have a lot of
enthusiasm to operate
the shop in the perma-
nent market.

that for the last 40
years, they have been
coming to Jaipur for
the business of woolen
garments. They said
that all the allottees be-
longing to the Union
would operate shops in
Shri Jhulelal Tibetan
Market only and
claimed that the Union
has nothing to do with
the Tibetan market be-
ing set up on Kalwar
Road. No shopkeeper
belonging to the Union
is setting up shop there,
they said.
