with big posters in Bho-
pal. He was also about to
launch this scheme in

engal’s po-
litical land-
scape has
been marred
by violence,
with disturbing reports of
manipulated narratives by
the ruling government
coming to light. As Bengal
completes its Panchayat
elections, a closer examina-
tion reveals a concerning
reality where the ruling
party controls the narrative,
distorting facts, and label-
ling violence as a “tradi-
tion.” This article aims to
shed light on the truth be-
hind the political violence,
emphasising the need for a
balanced approach, ac-
countability, and transpar-
ency during this critical
electoral process.
Skewed Representation
and Manipulation of
Narratives
One of the key findings is
the biased representation in
panel discussions, where
liberal parties dominate the
discourse while marginalis-
ing the BJP.This imbalance
undermines fairness and
objectivity, allowing the
ruling government to avoid
crucial questions and ac-
countability. To ensure a
comprehensive and unbi-
ased discussion, it is essen-
tial to include diverse per-
spectives and hold all par-
ties accountable for their
actions.
Rejecting Violence as
Tradition
Contrary to claims that po-
litical violence is a tradi-
tion, the absence of cultural
heritage in such acts be-
comesapparentuponcloser
examination. Bengal boasts
a rich cultural legacy en-
compassing delicacies like
Rosogolla and art forms
like Rabindra Sangeet, not
the brutal violence wit-
nessed during elections. It
is imperative to reject ex-
cuses and place responsi-
bility on the ruling govern-
ment for maintaining law
and order.
Media Complicity and
the Need for Truth
The report exposes the
complicity of the media in
covering up political vio-
lence, highlighting a histo-
ry of ignored incidents and
downplayed violence. This
raises concerns about trans-
parency and accountability
withinthemedialandscape.
The article calls for a re-
newed commitment to truth
and a courageous challenge
of prevailing narratives to
ensure accurate reporting
and avoid misleading the
public.
Central Forces and
Operational Command
Examining the role of Cen-
tral forces in Bengal elec-
tions, it becomes clear that
they operate under theWest
Bengal State Election
Commission (WBSEC),
appointed by the ruling
TMC government. Under-
standing this chain of com-
mand is crucial in holding
responsible parties ac-
countable for maintaining
law and order during the
completed Panchayat elec-
tions. Accurate reporting
and avoidance of mislead-
ing narratives are essential
to ensure transparency and
a fair electoral process.
Transparency in
Appointment Processes
The report raises questions
about the appointment pro-
cess of State Election Com-
missioners, emphasising
the need for transparency
and accountability in local
body polls. To ensure a fair
and independent process, it
is vital to address any im-
balances of power. The ar-
ticle urges a re-evaluation
of appointment procedures
to uphold the principles of
transparency and account-
ability.
Scrutinizing Motives
behind Advocating for
Ballot Papers
The motives behind advo-
cating for a return to ballot
papers are also examined in
the report. Incidents of
open plundering during
previous Panchayat polls,
expose vulnerabilities in
this voting method. The ar-
ticle calls for a critical ex-
aminationofthesedemands
and accountability for those
advocating for changes in
the electoral system.
Humanising Victims and
Fostering Empathy
A significant emphasis of
the report is placed on hu-
manising the victims of po-
litical violence. Their sto-
ries must be told to high-
light the profound impact
on families and communi-
ties. By humanising the
victims, empathy is fos-
tered, leading to a deeper
understanding of the true
cost of political violence.
The article emphasises the
importance of prioritising
personal narratives in the
pursuit of justice.
Avoiding Trivialisation
and Ensuring
Accountability
It is crucial not to trivialise
the actions of the state gov-
ernment. While incidents
like the arrest of a professor
for sharing a cartoon are
concerning, they should not
overshadow the lives lost
due to political violence.
The media has a responsi-
bility to hold the ruling
government accountable
for effectively addressing
political violence and en-
suring the safety of the
electoral process.
As Bengal completes its
Panchayat elections, it is
vitaltounmaskthetruthbe-
hind political violence and
manipulated narratives. By
demanding transparency,
humanising victims, and
promoting accountability,
the media plays a pivotal
role in uncovering the real-
ity. Empowering the public

As Bengal completes its

All’s not well in
simmering Manipur
MANIPULATEDNARRATIVESEXPOSED
AMIDSTPANCHAYATPOLLS
BHAGWAT’S PLEA ON
TEMPLE CONTROL
anipur is still simmering. With two more
cases of gang rape having been reported and
people’s protests continuing, the situation
can’t be described as normal. Adding to the concern
is the threat to Meiteis in Mizoram where Mizos have
a close affinity with Manipur’s Kuki-Zomis. The
government of Mizoram has assured Meiteis of se-
curity. The threat to Meiteis was issued by an or-
ganization of former militants which asked them to
“leave for their own safety”.
This situation could have been averted had the gov-
ernment of Manipur acted swiftly and with a firm hand
without any bias. Mizoram government made quick
security arrangements in the Meitei-dominated areas
to nip any trouble in the bud. Such preventive meas-
ures were not taken in Manipur when protests began.
Women have been soft targets for perverts and the
victors. Comparing Manipur gang rapes with any
other may win a brownie point or two but it should
not be used to deflect criticism against one heinous
act or another.
M
ontrol of Hindu temples has been a conten-
tious issue ever since the CP Ramaswami
Aiyar Commission, constituted by the Gov-
ernment of India in 1960, declared that gov-
ernment control over temples was essential to pre-
vent maladministration.Article 25 (2) of the Consti-
tution also provides for limited control of affairs of
temples.Approximately 400,000 of the total 900,000
Hindu temples are under government control. The
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and other Hindu or-
ganisations have been persistently demanding that
government control over temples must. The control,
they say, should be handed over to devotees.
It is not that only devotees mismanage temple af-
fairs. Governments
are also blamed for
improper manage-
ment of temples. In
2014 the Supreme
Court had divested
the Tamil Nadu gov-
ernment of its con-
trol over the
1400-year-old Nata-
raja temple in Chid-
ambaram. While
hearing a case on
temple control, Jus-
tice SA Bobde ob-
served, “We do not
know why govern-
ment officers should
run the temple in Ta-
mil Nadu, there are
many cases of theft
of idols. What are government officers doing?”
Devotees are also not above such lax mismanage-
ment which is why the government thought it was
prudent to keep control of temples in its hands. One
attraction for a hold on temples is the amount of
money offered by devotees. Whoever controls tem-
ples sits over huge piles of cash like in Tirupati and
there are chances of pilferage.
Mohan Bhagwat, the RSS Chief, also insists that
governments should stay away from temples and al-
low devotees to run them. “It is the need of the hour
that temples supply both bhakti and shakti,” Bhag-
wat said.

Prime Minister Narendra
Modi is likely to inaugu-
rate on July 26 the rede-
veloped ITPO complex
here, which will host the
G20 leaders' meeting in
September, official
sources said on Sunday.
The venue, also known
as the Pragati Maidan
complex, has a campus
areaofapproximately123
acres and is India's largest
MICE (Meetings, Incen-
tives, Conferences, and
Exhibitions) destination.
In terms of the covered
space available for
events, the redeveloped
and modern IECC com-
plex finds its place among
the top 10 exhibition and
convention complexes in
the world, rivalling colos-
sal names such as the
Hannover Exhibition
Centre in Germany, the
National Exhibition and
Convention Centre
(NECC) in Shanghai,
they said.
The magnitude of the
IECC's stature and infra-
structure is a testament to
India's capability to host
world-class events on a
grand scale, they said.
At Level-3 of the Con-
vention Centre, a grand
seating capacity for
7,000 people exists, mak-
ing it even larger than the
seating capacity for ap-
proximately 5,500 in the
iconic Sydney Opera
House in Australia.
This impressive fea-
ture establishes the IECC
as a venue fit for hosting
mega conferences, inter-
national summits, and
cultural extravaganzas on
a global scale, they as-
serted.
Officials noted that
exhibition halls offer
seven innovative spaces
for showcasing prod-
ucts, innovations, and
ideas. These state-of-
the-art halls provide an
ideal platform for ex-
hibitors and companies
to engage with their tar-
get audience, fostering
business growth and net-
working opportunities,
they added. Among its
many exceptional fea-
tures, the IECC boasts of
a magnificent amphi-
theatre with a seating
capacity of 3,000 indi-
viduals, they said.
BHAGWAT OVER RISE OF THE COUNTRY
‘40 times more talk of good things happening’
PTI
Mumbai
SS chief Mohan
Bhagwat on
Sunday said the
discussion on good things
happening in the country
now is at least 40 times
more than the talk on the
bad things happening.
He was speaking after
inaugurating Shrimati
Dhankuvrben Babubhai
Dhakan Hospital (Suvar-
na Hospital) in Kandi-
vali suburb of north
Mumbai in the presence
of Maharashtra Deputy
Chief Minister Devendra
Fadnavis.
“Many times negative
discussions are heard.
But when we go around
the country and see, then
we come to know that
there is 40 times more
discussion about the
good things that are hap-
pening, than there is talk
of the bad things happen-
ing in India,” Bhagwat
said. “The reason for the
utkarsh (rise) of the
country today is due to
government’s policies
and the work of responsi-
ble people in govern-
ment. Things are also
running smoothly be-
cause some people don’t
do anything. If they
work, then there will be
problems,” he said.
Bhagwat said that the
desire among people to
see India gain glory is
more powerful today than
it was 40 years ago. “This
should increase. We are
rising but we are yet not
that powerful,” he added.
There are people who
don’t want to see our rise,
the RSS chief said.

elections and was in a direct fight with the BJP at 373 seats.
BJP had contested the 2019 polls on 435 seats while rest of

The ethnic violence in

The despicable May 4

that the victim had been
murdered by tribals in
Churachandpur.
The picture was later

was witnessed the next

It is good to enjoy
your success but
only for a brief
period, every success has
to be a stepping stone for a
higher aim.
Dr Jagdeesh Chandra,
CEO Editor-in-Chief, First India
zYour government is
considered to be sensitive
to human suffering. We
have heard about you
that if an untoward inci-
dent takes place, you
reach the spot immedi-
ately.
Pushkar Singh Dhami:
I believe that my stand-
ing with my people in
difficult times does not
end the pain, but some-
where the aggrieved get
some confidence to face
the calamity. I consider
myself one among the
people and it is always
my effort to stand with
my people in happy as
well difficult times.
zYou are a son of
‘Devbhoomi.’ When you
were born in 1975, did
the people from your vil-
lage ever think that this
child would someday go
on to become the Chief
Minister of the state?
See, I also never
thought that I would ever
become something sig-
nificant. I am the son of a
soldier and was born in a
village on the border in
Pithoragarh. Since child-
hood I have seen my
mother working in the
fields, bringing grass and
fodder home and my fa-
ther working as a soldier
in the Army. When I was
a child, I wanted that I
should get to sit in my
parents’ laps and talk to
them, but somehow we
never got the chance. So,
I never thought that I
would become some-
thing one day, but yes, I
had thought that I would
definitely do something.
PM Modiji and the Al-
mighty have given me
the chance to serve the
people of ‘Devbhoomi’
and I strive to spend each
moment of my life for the
people of this state.
zDid you never want to
join the Army? Did your
family members never
ask you to?
I wanted to join the
Army and I prepared ex-
tensively for it as well.
But some situation devel-
oped in the family that
my father stopped me
from joining. He had
served for a long time in
the Army and because of
certain responsibilities at
home, I could not join.
Well, I could not give my
contribution as a soldier,
but I try to make a differ-
ence in the lives of our
people with the same zeal
as a soldier.
zFrom where did you
get the inspiration to en-
ter politics?
I had never thought
that I would be in poli-
tics. I have been a work-
er of the ABVP and
while studying in Luc-
know University, I was a
trained Swayamsevak of
RSS. I have done OTC.
So from there, I contin-
ued working and carry-
ing out the roles assigned
in ABVP and after that
when Uttarakhand was
formed, I had the chance
to fulfil the responsibil-
ity of State President of
BJYM. I travelled to
each and every corner of
Uttarakhand and met
people. That time ND
Tiwariji’s government
was in power and I
worked on protests and
campaigns for youth,
unemployed and the
general public and re-
ceived cooperation from
people. The party as-
signed me work and now
this work has been hand-
ed over to me.
zWhen did you contest
your first election?
In 2012. In the first
election, the voters of the
region gave me a chance
to represent them. It was
a backward region and to
help that region come
forward, I picked up sev-
eral projects and issues.
zBut this time around,
you lost while helping
other candidates win.
You must have felt bad
when the results were
announced.
Not really. However, it
was there that the people
of that constituency had
given me a chance, re-
peatedly, to represent
them.Iwasnotconcerned
about my personal result.
I did feel for sometime
since the overall result
was positive and my own
result was not good, but
still deep down in my
heart, I was not too con-
cerned or pained with the
result or de- motivated. I
felt that my party and PM
Modiji had trusted me so
much that they gave me
such a major responsibil-
ity of contesting on be-
half of the party and BJP
came to power again. So,
I felt that the work as-
signed to me had been
fulfilled. So I never wor-
ried about what will hap-
pen in the future, but I am
indebted to our PM and
party leadership that they
give me a chance to lead
the government.
zWhat makes PM Modi
and Home Minister Amit
Shah trust you so much
that they made you CM
even after you faced de-
feat from your constitu-
ency?
I never asked them for
any responsibility. Nei-
ther did I ask them prior
to the election and defi-
nitely not after the polls.
But I am indebted to
them that PM Modiji,
Amit Shahji, Nadda ji
and all of our leadership
gave me a chance to
serve the people.And the
promises that we made to
the people of Uttara-
khand, we are fulfilling
those promises.
zYou are the youngest
CM of the country and
the face of Uttarakhand.
When was the first time
that you met PM Modi?
I met him several times
in various programmes
and he has been the ‘Star
Campaigner’ for the par-
ty in various elections.
Without his presence, no
election, in which I con-
tested, would be com-
pleted. But after the re-
sponsibility of CM was
given to me, I went to
meet PM after taking the
oath. The meeting time
was a little restricted, but
when I went, I felt this
too was enough. It was
not official, but I was told
that about 15 or 20 min-
utes would be my time
with PM, but then I
thought that since I am
meeting the PM for the
first time, so I was writ-
ing down several issues
and reading them also.
Frankly, I was a bit nerv-
ous too since he has a
great persona and is a
‘Global Leader,’so I was
wondering what he
would ask me. So when I
entered his room, I
though PM might be in
another room, but I was
suddenly greeted by his
voice and he said ‘Aaiye
Dhami ji,’ and I was sur-
prised that PM was al-
ready sitting there. Since
it was Corona time, he
was wearing a mask and
I too was wearing a mask.
In fact, I was so nervous
that I was not even look-
ing towards him. He
asked me to take off my
mask and we sat on a
nearby sofa. For the first
few minutes, I felt that I
am in presence of the
biggest leader of the
world, but after that,
when he started talking to
me, I don’t know what
happened, he perhaps has
some sort of a magnetic
quality about him, some
divine power, that I for-
got everything else and
got so engrossed in talk-
ing with him. I had about
20 minutes time sched-
uled with him, but I did
not even realise when
that time swelled to al-
most two hours. He
would say something
once and I would respond
to that. It was the most
engaging and memorable
meeting I had with PM
Modi.
zAs a citizen, how do
you see the nine-year
tenure of the Prime Min-
ister?
I can say that in the
history of Independent
India, the amount of
work he has done for the
poor, for the destitute,
for women, for the back-
ward classes, for tribals,
for the scheduled classes
and for every section of
our society, in the nine
year tenure of PM
Modi’s government,
none of the sections has
been left untouched.
Governments that have
ruled the nation in the
past used to make poli-
cies and projects for
some sections, but in PM
Modiji’s time, plans and
policies have been made
for those, who actually
need such plans and pol-
icies.
zWhy does he like Utta-
rakhand so much? He
has said that the next
decade is of Uttara-
khand.
See, PM Modi has a
‘Karma aur Marma’rela-
tion with Uttarakhand. I
was born and raised in
Uttarakhand and have
seen majority of the state,
but there still are several
areas and places about
which not much is
known, but PM Modiji
knows about those areas
and places which people
like us also do not know.
And every month, I go
and meet him for guid-
ance and each time he
asks me for information
about everything. Look
at the rebuilding of Ke-
darnath Temple after the
calamity that hit us! We
appeal to people to com-
plete the journey once the
weather changes, but it is
the feeling of people to-
wards Baba Kedar and
PM has added another
factor the Kedar Temple.
Work on Badrinathji’s
master plan is going on
along with all-weather
roads for Char Dham. Be
it ropeway for Hemkund
Sahib or Kedarnath, in
the coming times, it will
be nothing less than a
miracle for the people
coming here from across
the world. Right now it
takes a few days to com-
plete the yatra, but in the
coming times, it will only
take a few hours to com-
plete it, be it Hemkund
Sahib or Kedarnath
yatra. Similarly, Kailash
Mansarovar yatra would
be done through road.
Apart from this, railways
in the hills, the kids today
might have seen it on the
phone or television, but
not in person. Now work
is going on for rail tracks
from Rishikesh to Kar-
naprayag due to PM Nar-
endra Modiji.
He has approved
‘Navratnas’ of develop-
ment for Uttarakhand
and work on them is go-
ing on in full swing and
he himself says that he
has a ‘Karma and Mar-
ma’ relation with ‘Devb-
hoomi’ Uttarakhand.And
thus, in these nine years,
all that has happened in
Uttarakhand, if we com-
pare it with the 66 years
of works done after Inde-
pendence, these nine
years would outweigh
those nearly seven dec-
ades of works. So, people
from Uttarakhand love
PM as much as PM loves
this land and its people.
And there is a reason for
that. Since the time PM
Modi started leading the
nation from 2014, the
five Lok Sabha seats of
Uttarakhand were won
over by BJP by a huge
margin. After that in
2017, when the Uttara-
khand Assembly elec-
tions were held, BJP
formed the government
with a massive majority
of 58 seats. It was PM’s
charismatic leadership.
Then the election for
2019 Lok Sabha came
and in those general elec-
tions, our party received
more votes as compared
to 2014. Now you will
see that in the 2024 elec-
tions, people from ‘Devb-
hoomi’ will give an even
bigger vote share to PM
Modi because people
here have seen that
Modiji has not worked
like a Prime Minister, but
like a son or a brother and
he has taken care of peo-
ple like a guardian during
Corona times. So, the
love he has for the people
of Uttarakhand is im-
mense and the people
reciprocate the same love
for him.
In a tête-à-tête with Dr Jagdeesh Chandra, CEO and Editor-in-Chief, Bharat24-Vision of New India and First India
CMD, First India News, Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami reveals how Prime Minister Narendra Modi
patiently groomed him from a nervous youth into a mature Chief Minister, how PM has acted as a son, brother
and a guardian to the people of Uttarakhand, especially in times of calamity, how Dhami himself wanted to
join the Army but fate had other things planned for him and how he believes that in 2024 elections, people
will give an even bigger vote share than 2014 and 2019 elections as a token of love for PM Modi. Excerpts....

STAY HYDRATED
While the cooler weather might make you
feel less thirsty, it's essential to stay hydrat-
ed during the monsoon. Drink an adequate
amount of water throughout the day to flush
out toxins from your body and maintain
proper bodily functions.
NUTRITION-RICH DIET
Incorporate a balanced diet rich in vitamins
and minerals to boost your immunity.
Include seasonal fruits like apples,
pears, and pomegranates,
which can provide essen-
tial nutrients and help
protect against com-
mon monsoon
illnesses.

Stagnant water becomes breeding
grounds for mosquitoes and other in-
sects, leading to the spread of diseases
like dengue and malaria. Ensure that
there are no waterlogging issues
around your home and take preventive
measures against mosquito bites.
MAINTAIN PERSONAL
HYGIENE
With the increased risk of bacterial and viral
infections during the monsoon, maintaining
personal hygiene is vital. Regularly wash
your hands with soap and water, especially
before eating, after using the restroom, or
after touching public surfaces.
EXERCISE REGULARLY
Don't let the rainy season deter you from
staying active. Engage in indoor exercises or
opt for outdoor activities during brief breaks
in the rain. Regular physical activity helps
improve immunity and overall well-being.
PROPER FOOT CARE
Monsoon often brings muddy and water-
logged streets. Ensure to keep your feet
clean and dry to prevent fungal infections
like athlete's foot. Use antifungal powders
or creams if needed.
AVOID SELF-MEDICATION
If you experience any symptoms of illness
during the monsoon, avoid self-medicating
and consult a healthcare professional for
proper diagnosis and treatment.

spaces to prevent the accumulation of
moisture.

while safeguarding your health
and well-being in Jaipur.
Embrace the beauty of the rainy
season while staying fit and
fine!
