HAVEN’T DONE ANY SUCH WORK IN 8 YEARS THAT WOULD
MAKE INDIANS HANG THEIR HEAD IN SHAME, PM SAID
Rajkot: PM Narendra
Modi on Saturday said
he has spared no effort
while serving the coun-
try in the last eight
years, and not done any
such work that would
make people hang their
heads in shame. Modi
was addressing a gath-
ering after inaugurat-
ing a 200-bed multi-spe-
ciality hospital at Atkot
town in Gujarat’s Ra-
jkot district.
“I have spared no ef-
fort in my service to
the nation in the last
eight years. I have nei-
ther allowed, nor per-
sonally done any such
work that will make
you or even a single
person of India hang
head in shame. In the
last eight years, we
have made honest at-
tempts to build the
kind of India that Ma-
hatma Gandhi and
Sardar Patel dreamt
about,” he said.
We served the coun-
try’s poor through vari-
ous pro-poor schemes
and tried to make their
lives better,” he said.

Shimla: PM Modi will virtu-
ally interact with all the Chief
Ministers of the states on May
31 from Himachal Pradesh on
the occasion of the comple-
tion of eight years of the
BJP-led Central government.

Himachal Pradesh are very
excited and it is a matter of
pride that the Prime Minister
is coming to the state on the
completion of eight years of
the Central government.”
Following the mantra of
Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas,
Sabka Vishwas and Sabka
Prayas, we have given a new impetus to
the development of the country. These
are your sanskaras, sanskaras of this
holy land of revered Bapu (Mahatma
Gandhi) and Sardar Patel that in 8
years no such a thing was done even
by mistake so that any citizen of the
country has to bow his head. No
stone was left unturned in the
service of the motherland.

Ashok Gehlot will in-
augurate the stadium
today. Chandna said it
is a privilege for them
that the Chief Minister
would be there.
In a free-wheeling in-
terview with First In-
dia after the Twitter
controversy over bu-
reaucratic interfer-
ence, Chandna talks
about the CM’s zealous
approach to take the
government’s schemes
to the people and how
bureaucrats will have
to work at a break-neck
speed to keep pace.
 What pained you
regarding bureau-
cracy?
Chandna: There are
many good officers in
the bureaucracy like
Akhil Arora, Abhay
Kumar and Bhaskar
Sawant. Though they
lack a few things, un-
der Gehlot’s rule, the
officers will have to
work at a bullet’s speed.
The CM has opened the
state’s coffers for the
public. In such a situa-
tion, if leaders, bureau-
crats and employees do
not work with speed
and accuracy, we will
not be able to take
schemes to the public.
 How do you think
the CM would deal
with bureaucracy?
Chandna: I posted two
Tweets which included
everything. Gehlot is
busy providing facili-
ties to the players of
Rajeev Gandhi Gra-
meen Olympics. If any
officer becomes a dicta-
tor or tries to create
obstacles in his agen-
da, the CM won’t let
that happen. He will
not let anyone hinder
Mission 2023.
 How was your
meeting with the CM?
Chandna: No matter
should be that impor-
tant as long as it is for
or against the interest
of the public. Small
things keep happening
in big systems. This
happened before and
will continue to happen
in future as well. Al-
though some things are
clear from such inci-
dents, the way forward
is also decided. It’s not
an issue to demean
someone.
 Is there any rift be-
tween you and Poon-
ia over tender?
Chandna: I do not have
even one percent dis-
pute with Krishna Poo-
nia. We are working
together here. This is a
controversy created by
the media.
 Is all is well in the
sports council?
Chandna: There was
never anything wrong.
Everyone has to do
their own work. Those
who have the post, their
work is prescribed. A
person is assessed on
the basis of the posi-
tion and work. One per-
son cannot enter the
jurisdiction of another.
 CM says that there
is pressure on you?
Do you actually feel
so?
Chandna: I have nev-
er felt pressure of any
kind to date. You may
call responsibility a
burden. But I will nev-
er have any problem in
fulfilling the responsi-
bilities. I might have
tweeted anything but
the CM has full faith
in me.

ROW ALL SET TO
ESCALATE OVER
CHANCELLORSHIP
here’s no need for a
vice-chancellor of
any university to be
an illustrious acade-
mician. Political af-
filiation and proximity to power
are of greater importance than
excellence in academic fields.
Governments want vice-chancel-
lors of their choice to have a hold
on campuses to propagate ideol-
ogy
.Thisleadstofrictionbetween
a government and the governor
who is the Chancellor of state
universities. Last year there was
a row between the Kerala Gover-
nor Arif Mohammed Khan and
Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan
over the appointment of a VC.
Vijayan later assured the gover-
northathispowersasChancellor
won’t be curtailed.
A similar row is in the mak-
ing in West Bengal where Chief
Minister Mamata Banerjee is
planning to replace Governor
Jagdeep Dhankhar, who has
been raising questions about
VCs, as Chancellor. The West
Bengal Cabinet unanimously
decided to move a Bill in the As-
sembly to the effect. When
passed, the Bill will have to be
approved by the Governor who
may not oblige.
T
ujarat elections
are to be held in
December 2022
but Prime Minis-
ter Narendra
Modi and Union Home Minis-
ter Amit Shah have reached
their home state to prepare
the ground for their party’s
success. Not that they have
too much to fret about by way
of opposition--- Congress is in
a disarray and the Aam Aad-
mi Party is pushing to find a
foothold. The Congress re-
cently lost Hardik Patel, a
Patidar leader, due to the non-
seriousness of its top rung
leaders. Hardik Patel has so
far not opened his cards about
which party he will join but
he is expected to switch over
to the Bharatiya Janata Party
.
Hardik Patel’s leaving Con-
gress could mean a sizeable
dent in Patidar’s support for
the party although it is said to
be in touch with another
PatidarleaderNareshPatidar.
In contrast Modi, who was in
Gujarat on Saturday
, is going
all out to win over the Patidar
community which voted
against the BJP in 2017. The
BJP may even have a Patidar
chief minister. It is trying to
ensure that the Patidars do
not feel alienated. The prime
minister on Saturday inaugu-
rated a hospital run by a
Patidar Charitable Trust. In
April, the prime minister had
inaugurated another hospital
belonging to the Patidar com-
munity and also addressed
the Gujarat Patidar Business
Summit 2022.
Modi and Amit Shah are
personally focusing on the
Patidar community who con-
stitute over 12 percent of the
state’s six crore population.
In some constituencies their
percentage is especially high.
No party
, barring perhaps the
Congress, can take Patidars
lightly in an election year.

BAPU’S LETTER TO NEHRU
ON OCTOBER 5, 1945
Promoted by
Shree Cement Limited
October 5, 1945
My dear Jawaharlal,
have been desirous of writing to you
for many days but have not been able
to do so before today. The question of
whether I should write to you in English
or Hindustani was also in my mind. I
have at length preferred to write to you
in Hindustani.
The first thing I want to write about is
the difference of outlook between us. If the difference
is fundamental then I feel the public should also be
made aware of it. It would be detrimental to our work
for Swaraj to keep them in the dark. I have said that
I still stand by the system of Government envisaged
in Hind Swaraj. These are not mere words. All the
experience gained by me since 1908 when I wrote
the booklet has confirmed the truth of my belief.
Therefore if I am left alone in it I shall not mind, for
I can only bear witness to the truth as I see it. I have
not Hind Swaraj before me as I write. It is really better
for me to draw the picture anew in my own words.
And whether it is the same as I drew in Hind Swaraj
or not is immaterial for both you and me. It is not
necessary to prove the rightness of what I said then.
It is essential only to know what I feel today. I am
convinced that if India is to attain true freedom and
through India the world also, then sooner or later
the fact must be recognised that people will have to
live in villages, not in towns, in huts, not in palaces.
Crores of people will never be able to live at peace
with each other in towns and palaces. They will then
have no recourse but to resort to both violence and
untruth. I hold that without truth and non-violence
there can be nothing but destruction for humanity.
We can realise truth and non-violence only in the
simplicity of village life and this simplicity can best
be found in the Charkha and all that the Charkha con-
notes. I must not fear if the world today is going the
wrong way. It may be that India too will go that way
and like the proverbial moth burn itself eventually in
the flame round which it dances more and more furi-
ously. But it is my bounden duty to my last breath to
try to protect India and through India the entire world
from such a doom. The essence of what I have said
is that man should rest content with what are his real
needs and become self-sufficient. If he does not have
this control he cannot save himself. After all the world
is made up of individuals just as it is the drops that
constitute the ocean. I have said nothing new. This is
a well known truth.
But I do not think I have stated this in Hind Swaraj.
While I admire modern science, I find that it is the old
looked at in the true light of modern science which
should be reclothed and refashioned aright. You must
not imagine that I am envisaging our village life as it
is today. The village of my dreams is still in my mind.
After all every man lives in the world of his dreams.
My ideal village will contain intelligent human beings.
They will not live in dirt and darkness as animals.
Men and women will be free and able to hold their
won against anyone in the world. There will be neither
plague, nor cholera nor smallpox; no one will ideal,
no one will wallow in luxury. Everyone will have to
contribute his quota of manual labour. I do not want
to draw a large-scale picture in detail. It is possible to
envisage railways, post and telegraph offices etc. For
me it is material to obtain the real article and the rest
will fit into the picture afterwards. If I let go the real
thing, all else goes.
On the last day of the Working Committee it was
decided that the matter should be fully discussed
and the position clarified after a two or three session.
I should like this. But whether the Working Com-
mittee sits or not I want our position vis-a-vis each
other to be clearly understood by us for two reasons.
Firstly, the bond that unites us is not only political
work. It is immeasurably deeper and quite unbreak-
able. Therefore it is that I earnestly desire that in the
political field also we should understand each other
clearly. Secondly, neither of us thinks himself useless.
We both live for the cause of India’s freedom and we
would both gladly die for it. We are not in need of
the world’s praise. Whether we get praise or blame
is immaterial to us. There is no room for praise in
service. I want to live 125 for the service of India but I
must admit that I am now an old man. You are much
younger in comparison and I have therefore named
you as my heir. I must, however, understand my heir
and my heir should understand me. Then alone shall
I be content.

Mahesh Sharma
New Delhi: The recent
development of senior
Congress leader Kapil
Sibal leaving the grand
old party and going to
RS on SP’s ticket speaks
volumes about Sibal the
politician. Just imagine,
at this time when a doz-
enveteranleadersof the
Congress party are rub-
bing their heels for a
seat in RS, Kapil Sibal
had offers from three
parties. In three differ-
ent states, three differ-
entpartieshadproposed
to send Sibal to the RS.
But Sibal gave a chance
to the Samajwadi Party
.
He will go to the Rajya
Sabha as a candidate of
SP and with that his ties
with the Congress have
also ended.
Anyway, this time Con-
gress was not sending
him from any state to
the Upper House. Keep
in mind that Congress
has only two MLAs in
Uttar Pradesh this time.
Last time Congress had
27 MLAs, so SP
had sup-
ported his
candida-
ture as a
Congress candidate.
This time SP is away
from Congress and Con-
gress has only two
MLAs,henceSibalcould
not go to Rajya Sabha as
congress candidate.
Therefore, he left the
Congresspartyandrode
on the SP’s cycle.
The Samajwadi Party
also saw the advantage
in making him its Rajya
Sabha MP. By the way,
Jharkhand Mukti Mor-
cha leader Jharkhand
CM Hemant Soren and
RJD chief Lalu Prasad
could also visualise the
‘benefit’of fieldingSibal
to Rajya Sabha, but
Sibal gave a chance to
the SP. He did not con-
sider it necessary to
change the state this
time. Significantly,
Azam Khan, who was
recently released from
jail, had put pressure
on Akhilesh Yadav to
send Kapil Sibal to RS as
Sibal had helped him a
lot in the Supreme
Court. Akhilesh also ac-
ceptedAzamKhan’srec-
ommendation because
he saw two benefits in it.
Firstly, a big face and
strong lawyer will be
with him in Delhi and
secondly Azam Khan’s
displeasure will be re-
moved. In any cse,
Sibal’s RS seat was en-
sured. Now it has to be
seen what happens to
Ghulam Nabi Azad and
Anand Sharma, who
questionedtheCongress
leadership with Sibal?
‘Sharp advocate’ Sibal advocates own RS
nomination on Samajwadi’s ‘cycle’!

He is connecting civil
society with himself
and contacting peo-
ple of Bihar who
have made a name for

Congress is also
working on exactly
same formula. Con-
gress party has also
decided that it will
contact the people of
civil society and will
take them along in its
‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’.
Some social workers
are being contacted
by Congress.

well-known people
opposing the policies
of BJP. Apart from
this, Congress will
also contact smaller
political parties and
especially such re-
gional parties, whose
base is in a very small
area in a state. In-
stead of big parties,
Congress wants to
give a big shape to its
India journey by in-
volving small parties
and NGOs working in
a particular area.

HAS RAHUL’S
CORONATION BEEN
POSTPONED
AGAIN?
Where it was decid-
ed that in August
2022, Rahul Gandhi
would take over the
reins of the Congress
party and the loyalists
of the Gandhi family
had made elaborate ar-
rangements as to how,
following the conven-
tion of the party’s con-
stitutional beliefs, Ra-
hul would be elected
unopposed as the par-
ty’s president and Sonia
Gandhi has already
started ‘adjusting’ the
rebel voices of protest at
various forums of the
party
. But the results of
the opinion polls con-
ducted by an agency for
the party regarding the
assembly elections
in Gujarat and
Himachal have
shaken the in-
tentions of
the Gandhi
family
. In the
preliminary
trends of this
o p i n i o n
p o l l ,
Congress seems to be
lagging behind in these
two states. Sources re-
veal that Sonia Gandhi
has first taken cogni-
zance of this and she
does not want Rahul to
take over the reins of
the party in August and
be blamed for the defeat
of the elections in De-
cember. So Sonia has
urged that Rahul takes
over the reins of the
party before the Karna-
takaelections.InKarna-
taka, the party expects
to perform better than
the BJP, so the credit
can be given to Rahul’s
‘enthusiastic leader-
ship’.Ontheotherhand,
there is Priyanka Gan-
dhi, whose thinking is
that in the December as-
sembly elections, from
all the posters to the
pamphlets, Rahul
will be at the cen-
tre of Con-
gress’s think-
ing, policies
and rallies, so
whether Rahul
is the president
of the party or
not, no matter
what, he will have
to take the responsi-
bility of victo-
ry or defeat, and there-
fore why not accept this
challenge by becoming
the president. Priyanka
has also insisted on the
party forum that Con-
gress should not post-
pone the presidential
elections, and now the
final call on this is to be
taken by Rahul.
BJP CAN CHANGE
ITS THREE CMS!
Thesaffronparty
,rid-
ing on the storm of
victory, have still not
lost its focus and vision
even in this charged and
upbeat festive atmos-
phere. Keeping the up-
coming general elec-
tions of 2024 at the cen-
tre, the round of intense
discussion in the BJP is
going on from
now on. If re-
liable sourc-
es are to be
believed,
s e v e r a l
rounds of
meetings
of the top
leadership
of the
par-
ty have been held in the
last few days. PM Modi,
Home Minister Amit
Shah, Party President
JPNaddaandOrganiza-
tion General Secretary
BL Santosh took part in
these high profile meet-
ings. It has been decided
in this meeting that ‘de-
cision will be taken
about the future of BJP
ruled Chief Ministers,
keeping in view the re-
port card’. Although no
official disclosure has
been made about this,
but sources tell that this
sword of the high com-
mand is hanging on the
Chief Ministersof Mad-
hya Pradesh, Himachal
and Karnataka but Har-
yana Chief Minister
Manohar Lal Khattar
may once again get
bail. The BJP
leadership is
being stress-
ing that
such CMs
should be
made who
can get victory in the
elections on their own.
Sources reveal that in
this high profile meet-
ing there was also a seri-
ous review of the elec-
toral defeat of Uttara-
khand CM Pushkar
Singh Dhami and Kes-
hav Prasad Maurya and
it was concluded that
Dhami had little time to
prove himself, whereas
Maurya had got five full
years as Deputy Chief
Minister, yet he lost the
election. The ‘Modi
magic’ may have
brought the BJP back in
UP and Uttarakhand,
but the party’s seats
have come down from
previous numbers.
WILL THE
CHAUTALA
FAMILY BE
UNITED?
It was al-
most a
week before
the sentence
of former
Hary-
ana Chief Minister Om
Prakash Chautala was
pronounced in the dis-
proportionate assets
case that Chautala
called his entire family
and told them that ‘if
they really want to
fight the Congress-BJP
in their home state,
then the family will
have to unite.’ He wants
to see his family united
further and he thinks
that everyone should
fight together on
Chaudhary Devi Lal’s
party and his election
symbol. Sources reveal
that Chautala had also
called his younger
brother and State Pow-
er and Jail Minister
Ranjit Singh Chau-
tala to attend
this meeting,
but he did not come.
Whereas it is said that
he had won this elec-
tion as an independent
only after negotiating
with Om Prakash
Chautala and also got
two important minis-
tries in the Khattar gov-
ernment. But Ranjit
Singh did not come to
the meeting and indi-
cated to his elder broth-
er that he was fine as an
independent. But in
this meeting too, family
tensions began to cause
friction when JJP Gen-
eral Secretary Digvijay
Singh Chautala told his
grandfather that ‘he
would be happy that his
family unites,’ but he
also wanted to make it
clear that the either he
or his father Ajay Singh
Chautala would be the
president of this newly
formed family party.
On the other hand, the
Chautala family feels
that by sending the el-
der Chautala to jail
again, the sympathy of
the Jats of the state will
be with the Chautala
family, whose loss may
ultimately be borne by
the BJP.
...AND FINALLY
When Union Steel
Minister RCP
Singh met Amit Shah,
BJP agreed to send him
to Rajya Sabha from its
quota seat. Dharmen-
dra Pradhan reached
Patna to talk about this
and he made Shah talk
to Nitish, but Nitish
spoke with Shah in a
changed manner. While
talking to Shah, Nitish
asked, “Why are you so
interested in our for-
mer party president?”
Shah immediately un-
derstood the matter
and told RCP that he
should first please Nit-
ish and once he agrees,
only then BJP will
move forward since he
does not want to topple
his government in Bi-
har. RCP is now in a fix
while BJP has once
again offered Nitish the
Vice President’s post.

tation’of Tiwari,ordoes
the high command want
togiveanypoliticalmes-
sage? After all, why did
Satish Poonia and Ra-
jendra Rathore have a
happy faces?
However, sources re-
veal that there is anoth-
er side to this whole in-
cident. Tiwari has been
a hardline and ‘militant’
BJP leader who has
playedanimportantrole
in building the party in
Rajasthan.Thenoneday
in the atmosphere of de-
spair, he suddenly left
the party and even
reached Ashok Gehlot’s
door. In the year 2019,
Rahul Gandhi got Ti-
wari to join Cong but
Cong did not like Tiwari
owing to Tiwari’s ‘saf-
fronised past’ and the
common Cong worker
could not accept Tiwari.
Thereafter, upon his
‘ghar wapsi’ into the
BJP, Tiwari was lost in
oblivion. But today the
tables have turned and
the BJP once again em-
braced its old worker.
Now everyone’s eyes on
Tiwari’s next role in
BJP?Willthe75-year-old
Tiwari take charge of
campaigning in 2023
polls? And what will be
the effect of all this? In-
terestingly, at present,
Rathore’s stature has
also increased.

From P1…
I had a gold medal in
M.Com and topped the
RAS. Then I got promot-
ed into IAS and got sev-
eral chances to work
while also receiving
honours from the peo-
ple. I am a proud 72 year
old man, still young and
energetic.”
Remembering his
days as IAS, Dr. Chan-
dra said, “In 2008, when
I was 58 years old, I was
serving as Transport
Commissioner. A re-
tired IAS used to live
next door to me. He
came to me one day and
complaint about my
other neighbour saying
that he does not greet
the former IAS any-
more. So I spoke with
this neighbour who was
a little straight forward
and said that he does
not feel like greeting a
retired officer. Two
years later when you
retire, I will not greet
you as well. I was sur-
prised and immediately
visualised my future. I
felt that if anyone re-
tires from a big posi-
tion, their humiliation
at the hands of society
would be more. So I de-
cided to work in a field
from which I would
never have to retire. Af-
ter that the almighty
made me the first per-
son in the nation who
launched 18 regional
channels across the na-
tion.”

ring to the experiments
and achievements made
by Dr. Jagdish Chandra
in the field of television,
said that all this is result
of Dr. Chandra’s dedica-
tion and hard work.
“No one can become
of any value without
education. I congratu-
late Jagdeesh Chandra
ji for achieving this
feat,” the Education
Minister said.

VALOROUS AND
RAVISHING
escribe your-
self, and
what would
you say are
some vital
skill or char-
acteristics to
have to make it in the
modelling world?
I’m an active thinker and a
confident girl, I like learning
and exploring new things
and that describes my active
learner. Apart from model-
ling I love interacting with
people and putting forward
my views.
What inspired you to find
the Supermodel in you.
Share some insides of
your journey.
From my childhood I am into
fashion, for me dressing up is
very important, it is a way
through which we can
representourselvesand
When other activities
that help us to feel
‘like us’ – such as
hobbies, seeing
friends and going to
work – are unavailable,
getting dressed up may help
people to reinforce their sense
of self, Clothing impacts how
people think and behave. Put-
ting on a ‘work’ outfit might
help with motivation and con-
centration,andwearingsome-
thing special might help to
break the monotony of lock-
down, and lift people’s mood.
During Covid days, I realised
that I should click my pictures
in my favourite attires and
then I participated in some
beauty pageants.
What was the biggest
rookie mistake you made
when just starting out?
During my initial days, I have
done many unpaid shoots for
many designers and that is
my biggest mistake. People
like to spread negative ru-
mours about modelling
and because of that I
was restricting my-
self from entering
this field and I am
still regretting it.
What has been
the most
memorable
or re-
warding
moment
in your
career?
Wa l k -
ing the
ramp as a
model was
like dream come
true moment for me
and I still cherish it.

KARWASRA, A SUPERMODEL AND A QUICK LEARNER FROM JAIPUR GIVES A SNEAK PEEK
ABOUT HER JOURNEY AS A MODEL IN A CANDID TALK WITH CITY FIRST
D
UTTKARSHA SHEKHAR
cityfirst@firstindia.co.in

ABOUT “X OR Y”
MOVIE
After so much struggle, she is
finally making her debut with
Iqbal Khan in the “X or Y”
movie. This movie deals with
society’s evil mentality about
the girl child and women’s
health. Naaz is an independ-
ent, strong and self-made
woman. When asked why she
chose to do this film, she said,
“Every girl has the right to
live her life according to her
and she should be set free to
choose.” Naaz said, “ Being a
girl, I have seen all these
things all these years. I am an
actor hence I have the medium
through which I can spread
the word amongst the masses.
And I consider myself lucky
that I have got a chance to
work on something like this. I
feel we lack in a lot of aspects.
The subject was so strong that
I did not even think twice to
say yes and the movie will
very soon be out on the OTT
platform. Apart from this,
other big projects are also in
the pipeline.
LEARN AND MOVE
FORWARD
The actress believes that one
needs to accept challenges and
learn from them to sustain in
the entertainment industry
where experience and deter-
mination are required to
prove oneself. During my ini-
tial days, while I was shooting
for a show and the producer
would want to scold the main
lead but unfortunately he
would scream at me for no rea-
son after pack-up. He would
say, “Kya tumhe acting nahi
aati hai? Itna kharab scene
kiya hai tumne. Not only pro-
ducers but also the casting
team, people on the sets would
speak nuisance about new-
comers. It is like ragging and
criticism that every newcom-
er faces in the industry. Once
I was about to break down and
also contemplated whether I
am in the wrong field. Soon, I
did realise that I will learn
from all these experiences to
move forward and don’t let
anybody bully me.
DATING MY WORK
When asked about marriage
plans and love life, Naaz said,
“Currently, I am dating my
work, myself and I love
spending time in my self-care
routine. I have no pressure
from my parents regarding
this. I feel one should get
married when they feel that
they are ready.
COMEDY OR
DRAMA
Having worked in both drama
and comedy Naaz said, ‘’I love
doing emotional scenes be-
cause through this I can con-
nect myself to the character. I
enjoy doing that because I get
to feel the emotions of differ-
ent situations.’’ But likewise,
comedy is not at all easy. One
of the most difficult things is
to make someone laugh. Sign-
ing a show like Chidiya Ghar
taught me a lot about working
in two different zones.
SOCIAL MEDIA
TROLLS
Naaz said, ‘’I think people
should understand that we
actors also have a personal
life where we are free to do
whatever we like. Even today
I get trolled for posting pic-
tures on social media wear-
ing clothes of my choice. Peo-
ple write negative com-
ments such as Kunti Mata
ye Kya Phen Liya, etc.
However, nothing
can be done in
the end be-
cause it is
p e o p l e ’ s
m i n d s e t s
that cannot
be changed in
one day, So I take these com-
ments in a positive light and
keep doing my work.”
hafaq Naaz has
been in the
world of show-
biz for a while
now. The ac-
tress started
her acting ca-
reer with TV shows.
She has been active in
the television industry
since 2010. In a decade-
long career, she has
done a lot of recogniz-
able work which in-
cludes her role as Kunti
in Mahabharat (Star
Plus), Guni in Sapna
Babul Ka Bidaai (Star
Plus), Mayuri in Chidi-
ya Ghar (Sab TV), Ni-
yati in Kulfi Kumar Ba-
jewala (Star Plus) and
currently Shruti in
Ghum Hai Kisikey
Pyaar Meiin (Star
Plus). However, before
she became an actor,
Shafaq went through
her own set of hard-
ships.
In an exclusive inter-
view with City First,
Shafaq Naaz said that it
was difficult as no one
in my family is part of
the film industry but I
have confidence in my-
self and I believe in
destiny because every-
thing happens for a
reason.

STRIPE LINEN COTTON
BEACH DRESS
I’m currently obsessed
with striped linen-cotton
dresses. This is one of the
first beachwear brands that I
see get it right. Most of their
clothing is well-priced and
made from fabrics that are
breathable like linen, cotton,
or rayon vs. The majority of
overpriced beach cover-ups
on the market that is made
from polyester, the worst
fabric in the heat!
EKOUAER WHITE BEACH
COVER UP DRESS
My favourite beach dress is one you can
wear on and off the sand such as a clas-
sic shirtdress cover up! Wear it over your
bathing suit at the beach or layer it over
a slip dress with strappy sandals in the
evening. For bonus points, wear it as a top
tucked into denim shorts topped off with a
sun hat to complete the casual chic look!
SMOCKED WOMEN'S
BEACH DRESS
It’s easy to see why this smocked
cotton dress is a hit. It has an
easy to wear fit and adjust-
able straps for a relaxed,
comfortable seaside look.
Layer it with a light
cardigan or throw a
denim jacket over it
for a look you can
wear at home or
on vacation. If
you’re looking
for cute beach
dresses, consid-
er a midi-length
as a fresh and
airy option.
SHORT
TROPICAL
BEACH DRESS
The Patagonia June
Lake swing dress
looks so comfy for
hot weather, it’s just
the type of thing
I’d love to wear at
beaches. I’d wear
it at home, to
run errands,
as a beach
cover-up, and
as a casual
outfit to meet
up with friends
for coffee. This
kind of relaxed,
the lightweight
dress is definitely
on my wish list!
When the heat
and humidity go
up in the Carib-
bean, the lighter,
looser, and more
breathable the
dress the better!
O
ne of the biggest mistakes I see trav-
ellers make when travelling to hot
and humid beach destinations is that
they mostly pack or wear denim
shorts with tees. While I love this clas-
sic beach outfit, dresses are so much
easier to pack and they are much
more comfortable than a fitted t-
shirt. Trust me on this one! I prefer
light and floaty beach dresses and
prioritize breezy fabrics that will
keep me cool and ready for any-
thing, from day tonight.

shorts for an afternoon adventure.
