With Dotasra on side, Gehlot plans PCC restructuring
Naresh Sharma
Jaipur: The winds of
change have started
blowing for the Ra-
jasthan Congress. Per-
haps for the first time
since coming to power,
the ‘power’ and organi-
zation have given exam-
ples of moving in the
same direction and in
the same stride.
However, Sunday
brought with it an ex-
plicit example when for
the first time in over
one and a half years,
PCC Chief called on the
Chief Minister to chalk
out the ‘grand design’
for the days ahead. As a
result, a marathon four
hour long meeting took
place between CM Ge-
hlot and PCC Chief Do-
tasra where they dis-
cussed the future course
of action for the PCC
along with providing
feedback from Dotasra
and Maken’s recent
feedback meetings in
Jaipur and Ajmer.
Highly placed sources
reveal that the most im-
portant issue in the cur-
rent political environ-
ment is of PCC’s new
working committee and
it is believed that Gehlot
and Dotasra are of the
opinion of having a
small committee which
could be announced in
the ongoing month. It is
believed that Dotasar’s
team will be a mix of
young blood and experi-
enced leaders. Interest-
ingly, Dotasra had al-
ready done his ‘home-
work’ for district presi-
dents and ensured that
noplacewouldbeoffered
to rebels. Furthermore,
along with a dozen other
issues, Dotasra also dis-
cussedwithGehlotprob-
able names for impor-
tant positions in the or-
ganization. Gehlot and
Dotasra also discussed
the issue pertaining

First India Bureau
Pokhran: Sohan Singh

SIDR, STAR to eliminate waiting period for flights
Kashiram Choudhary
Jaipur: To eliminate
the waiting time for
flights to take off and
land, Jaipur airport ad-
ministration has start-
ed using Standard In-
strument Departure
Routes (SIDR) and
Standard Arrival
Routes (STAR) which
will allow the flights to
take off and land at the
airport without any
waiting period.
SID is a standard
ATS route identified in
an instrument depar-
ture procedure, by
which the aircraft
should proceed from
take-off phase to the en-
route phase whereas
STAR is a standard ATS
route identified in an
approach procedure by
which aircraft should
proceed from the en-
route phase to an initial
approach of the run-
way
When the air traffic
congestion is high,
flights have to wait in
the air for landing and
it consumes extra time
and fuel. Now, with the
STAR upgrade, the
flights will not be put on
hold and will land with-
out any wait.
For this, Jaipur-
bound flights at other
airports will have to
take permission for
take-off from the Jaipur
ATC. They will take off
only after clearance
from the Jaipur ATC.
Whenever a flight is
put on hold before land-
ing or halted at the
apron before taking
flight, it consumes time
and also puts extra bur-
den on fuel cost.
Apart from passen-
gers, airlines will also
benefit from the new
technical upgradation
as direct landing will
save fuel spent during
the hold, and will also
help in reduced carbon
emission.
A total of 63 flights
were being operated at
Jaipur airport before
lockdown in March and
there used to be traffic
congestion. Several
flights had to be put on
hold for clearing the
route for landing.

or many years,
even decades,
before the cur-
rent global
pandemic, en-
vironmental advocates
have waged a war against
single-use plastic. We’ve
been winning that war.
More and more consum-
ers are carrying reusa-
ble bags for groceries
and other shopping
items, asking restau-
rants to use more sus-
tainable materials for
take-out containers, and
using fewer plastic
straws. Homeowners are
even rethinking and re-
placing plastic PVC (pol-
yvinyl chloride) in eve-
rything from home sid-
ing to piping.
As with so many other
things in 2020, the full-out
war against plastic has
abated. To be sure, some
plastic personal protective
equipment is utilized by
medical professionals and
others to prevent the
spread of the coronavirus.
Some recent scholarly re-
search used by the plastics
industry to bolster its
claim that reusable gro-
cery bags somehow spread
the coronavirus is “of
questionable applicabili-
ty.” Nevertheless, states,
cities and various munici-
palities have either sus-
pended or put on hold im-
plementation of bans on
single-use plastics. Accord-
ingly, there have been sev-
eral articles about how the
plastics industry is one of
the few winners from the
ravages of COVID-19.
OUR ENVIRONMENT,
OUR LIVELIHOODS,
OUR HEALTH
More than 120 environ-
mental leaders are ask-
ing food delivery compa-
nies to help restart our
efforts to reduce single-
use plastic by giving con-
sumers the option in mo-
bile apps and online or-
dering systems to make
utensils, straws, condi-
ments and napkins opt-
in only. This is a great
first step, and the Center
for Environmental
Health (CEH), on whose
board I sit, is proud to
have signed that letter.
I am concerned about
the environment and what
we will leave for our future
generations. There are
tens of millions of people
who think more like I do
than like the plastics in-
dustry. The days of ignor-
ing piles of debris littering
beaches worldwide and
pretending there aren’t is-
lands of trash floating in
the oceans have long
passed. The plastics indus-
try is scrambling because
it knows how bad it looks
having conducted what
amounts to tobacco and
asbestos-like schemes from
the late 1970s to purposely
manipulate consumers to
use more plastic with cam-
paigns based on lies. The
plan to make plastics seem-
ingly indispensable to our
lives sadly has traction, yet
it comes at the great ad-
verse expense against our
environment, our liveli-
hoods and our health.
Peer scientists and en-
vironmentalists have
worked tirelessly to
bring to light the lasting
damage that single-use
plastic does, and our ef-
forts have resulted in
hard-won bans and other
actions as consumers re-
alize the real price they
are paying. Yet the eco-
logical, economic and
public health costs of
plastics are not limited
to just bags.
Many municipalities
still consider plastic PVC
pipes to be an acceptable
option to use in the infra-
structure systems that de-
liver drinking water to our
homes. Consider that right
now, the water that comes
from your faucet may have
traveled through miles of
plastic pipes to get there.
Who knows what it’s
brought along with it.
As numerous viable
alternatives to single-
use bags, PVC pipes and
the litany of other plas-
tic products abound, we
can and must draw a line
in the sand against this
harmful concoction be-
fore more communities,
ecosystems and liveli-
hoods are compromised.

Linking CPI(M) General Secretary
Sitaram Yechury, eminent
Academics Jayati Ghosh,
Apoorvanand and Yogendra Yadav
to Delhi riots is shocking abuse of
authority and law.
ndia has a made very strong
appeal for permanently re-
moving the Jammu & Kash-
mir issue under the outdated
agendaitemof theIndia-Paki-
stan question from the United
Nations Security Council
(UNSC) agenda. India’s de-
mand is fair and justified.
Since the abrogation of spe-
cial status for the erstwhile
state of Jammu and Kashmir
and bifurcation into 2 union
territories in August 2019, Pa-
kistan along with China tried
to raise the matter 3 times.
The attempts have met with
failure with informal closed-
door discussions happening
with no outcomes and other
members of the council reit-
erating that Kashmir is a bi-
lateral India-Pakistan issue.
As per the UN records Kash-
mir was formally raised at
UNSCthelasttimeonNovem-
ber 5, 1965. It was first taken
as an issue on January 6, 1948,
after India declared a unilat-
eral ceasefire consequent to
the Pak aggression to forcibly
annexJ&Kthatbeganformal-
ly in October 1947. Pakistan
launchedOperationGibraltor
in 1965 to once again forcibly
annexKashmirbutfailedmis-
erably this time as well.
After the signing of the
Shimla Agreement as an af-
termath of the Indo-Pak 1971
war, the issue was accepted to
be resolved by both the na-
tions bilaterally. But Pakistan
like the earlier UNSC resolu-
tionsshowedscantrespectfor
the Shimla Pact also and
waged a proxy war backed by
“religious terrorism” in Jam-
mu & Kashmir in 1989-90.
Immediately after the sign-
ing of the Shimla Agreement
India informed the UNSC of
the futility of continuing with
the United Nations Military
Observers Group (UNMOG)
but UNSC continued to retain
it at the insistence of Paki-
stan.ForthirtyyearsPakistan
played havoc in Jammu &
Kashmir through state-spon-
sored terrorism resulting in
lossof valuablelivesandprop-
erty. Taking advantage of the
special provisions in the Indi-
anConstitutionforJ&K,Paki-
stan promoted separatism
through the Hurriyat Confer-
ence, a creation of the Deep
StateinPakistan.Indiafinally
acted on 05 August 2019 by ab-
rogating the special provi-
sionsandbifurcatingthestate
into two Union Territories. It
wasauniqueandhistoricstep
towardsremovingallbarriers
which prevented the state’s
complete integration with the
nation and also settled the is-
sue for once and all. Pakistan
was made irrelevant except
for the fact that it remained in
illegal occupation of more
than half of the erstwhile
state’s territory referred to as
Pakistan Occupied Jammu &
Kashmir (POJK). Pakistan,
the aggressor, was told in no
uncertain terms that it would
have to vacate POJK. Rattled
Pakistan tried to internation-
alise the issue and seek inter-
national support but suffered
shameful humiliation includ-
ing from its Muslim allies. Ex-
cept for China and Turkey, no
othercountrybacksPakistan.
China being a permanent
member of the UNSC, has
tried unsuccessfully to raise
the issue at the insistence of
Pakistan.Thelastfailedeffort
was made in August this year
to coincide with Pakistan’s
Black Day celebrations to pro-
test against India’s unilateral
action of 05 August 2019. In-
dia’s stand was firm and une-
quivocal that all its actions
were justified as it was India’s
internal issue and Pakistan
had no locus standi to object.
India in its statement in the
Reportof theSecurityCouncil
for 2019 has demanded Kash-
mir’s permanent removal
from the United Nations Secu-
rity Council’s agenda, some-
thing Pakistan keeps on rak-
ing. India minced no words
whenitsaid,“thereisadelega-
tion that repeatedly attempts
to rebrand itself as contribut-
ing to international peace, but
unfortunately fails to recog-
nise that it is globally known
for being the fountainhead of
international terror and the
hub of terror syndicates.”
In the statement, India also
hit out at Pakistan and said
that a delegation keeps push-
ing for discussions on an out-
datedagendaitemintheCoun-
cil which for all matter needs
to be removed from the Coun-
cil’s agenda permanently. Pa-
kistan blames the UNSC for
failure to ensure implementa-
tionof itsownresolutionsand
decisions but the whole world
recognises the fact that the
sole defaulter is Pakistan.
Undoubtedly, the issue is
outdated as suggested by two
former secretary generals of
the council. Secretary-Gener-
al Boutros Ghali wanted to
remove the Kashmir issue
from the UN agenda in 1995
and his successor Kofi Annan
had declared that a resolution
under Chapter VI passed half
a century ago is “unimple-
mentable”.BoutrosGhalihad
even gone as far as to say that
“starting negotiations on a
new slate is more important
then relying on past legalistic
interpretations of UN resolu-
tions.” He was clearly hinting
at both nations to talk and
mutually resolve but Paki-
stan never displayed the po-
litical will to talk except dur-
ing the period of Musharraf
but his suggested formula
was unacceptable to India.
As far back as 1957, Gunnar
Jarring, UN mediator on
Kashmir, had stated that “the
implementation of interna-
tional agreements of an ad-
hocnaturewhichhasnotbeen
achieved fairly speedily may
become progressively more
difficult because of the situa-
tion with which they were to
cope has tended to change”.
Really prophetic words and
there is no doubt that much
water has flown through the
Jhelum since then.
Even in 2002, when US-Pa-
kistan relations were strong,
the then US assistant secre-
tary of state while disposing
before the US house interna-
tionalrelationssubcommittee
had admitted, “in the US view
the UN resolutions of the 40s
on Kashmir had been super-
seded by the Shimla Agree-
ment.” India on its part had
repeatedly told Pakistan to
stop abetting and promoting
terrorsothatallissuesinclud-
ing Kashmir can be discussed
bilaterally and resolved. But
Pakistan persisted with ter-
ror and continued with its
tactics of using terror as an
instrument of state policy.
China has its own axe to
grind. While it needs the
POJKtodeveloparoadlinkto
the Arabian Sea, it also needs
Pak as a proxy against India.
Hence, China encourages Pa-
kistan to keep the pot boiling
inKashmirandkeeptheissue
alive. It uses its permanent
seat in the UNSC to further
Pakistan’s nefarious designs.
While demanding the perma-
nent removal of the issue of
J&K under the outdated agen-
da, India rightly said, “Such
irrational exuberance has no
takers in a dignified world.”
Pakistan, backed by China,
has only been able to bring up
the issue informally under
closed-door meetings which
carry no meaning since these
meetings have no records and
there is no outcome. Pakistan
as usual has reacted to Indian
demand by saying that Indi-
ans are “deluding” them-
selves. But the absolute fact is
that the issue of Kashmir has
not been discussed by the
UNSC for last 55 years. As
mentioned earlier the last
three meetings eluded by Pa-
kistan are inconsequential
and mere time wasters.
The entire equation of the
Kashmir issue has changed
now consequent to the reso-
lutions passed by the Indian
parliament on August 5&6,
2019. Pakistan’s reason that
“The UN Military Observers
are stationed in Kashmir and
ceasefire violations are re-
ported daily to the Security
Council. This is proof that
this dispute remains under
the active consideration of
the UNSC and is no way out-
dated,” is highly illogical and
false since the ceasefire vio-
lations are unilateral and
unprovoked and initiated by
Pakistan to internationalise
an issue that is otherwise bi-
lateral as agreed at Shimla.
Even the current UN Secre-
tary-General Antonio Gu-
terres in his statement last
August clearly referred to the
1972 bilateral Shimla Agree-
ment. Thus time has come for
the UNSC to accede to Indian
demand and permanently de-
lete the issue of J&K from the
outdated agenda item of the
India-Pakistan question from
its agenda. Along with it the
UNOMG should be perma-
nently closed. This would
also help India to resolve the
issue of POJK speedily.

India in its

demanded
Kashmir’s
permanent

Pakistan keeps on

EVEN THE CURRENT UN SECRETARY-GENERAL
ANTONIO GUTERRES IN HIS STATEMENT LAST
AUGUST CLEARLY REFERRED TO THE 1972
BILATERAL SHIMLA AGREEMENT. THUS TIME HAS
COME FOR THE UNSC TO ACCEDE TO INDIAN
DEMAND AND PERMANENTLY DELETE THE ISSUE OF
J&K FROM THE OUTDATED AGENDA ITEM OF THE
INDIA-PAKISTAN QUESTION FROM ITS AGENDA

PM inaugurates 3 petrol sector
projects in poll-bound Bihar
New Delhi: Prime Min-
ister Narendra Modi on
Sunday dedicated three
petroleum sector pro-
jects in poll-bound Bi-
har to the nation.
These projects that
will help meet the de-
mand for domestic
cooking gas in the state
include state-run Indian
Oil Corporation’s 193-
km long Durgapur-Ban-
ka section of the Parad-
ip-Haldia-Durgapur liq-
uefied petroleum gas
(LPG) pipeline that will
supply cooking gas for
bottling at the new Ban-
ka plant in the state.
Apart from the pipe-
line and the bottling
plant at Banka, PM
Modi also dedicated
state-run Hindustan Pe-
troleum Corporation
Ltd’ LPG bottling plant
at Harsidhi in East
Champaran district
through video confer-
encing, that was also
attended by the state’
chief minister Nitish
Kumar.
With the critical Bi-
har state assembly elec-
tions on the anvil, there
has been a flurry of an-
nouncements and inau-
gurations for and from
the state. Last Thurs-
day, PM Modi launched
initiatives related to
animal husbandry and
fisheries in Bihar.
PM Modi said that
around Rs 21,000 crore
have been spent on the
10 large petroleum and
gas based projects that
are a part of the PM’s
package for Bihar.
According to govern-
ment, the LPG penetra-
tion in Bihar has expo-
nentially increased to
76.9% now from 23.5%
in 2014. This in turn has
also resulted in low ker-
osene usage in the state
that has declined to 2
lakh kilo litre (kl) from
8 lakh kl in 2014.
Modi also spoke
about the PMUY that
provides free cooking
gas connections to poor
families and has been
hailed as the NDA gov-
ernment’s version of
the MGNREGS. The
scheme has become a
mainstay of the BJP’s
political messaging and
has increasingly been
leveraged to add to the
political optics.
Bihar is all set to go
for assembly elections
in October-November.

T
he newly ap-
pointed division-
al commissioner
of Jodhpur division -
Samit Sharma - is ex-
tremely ecstatic and
highly energetic there
days and for the past
fortnight, he has been
working extensively
in the field leaving
the comfort of his of-
fice.
It appears that he has
focussed himself on
bettering the adminis-
trative system in his
division and as a result
he has been working
like a ‘guerilla’ ie he
reaches any district
suddenly and taken im-
mediate, on spot action
against corrupt or ir-
responsible public
servant.
Recently, he reached
Barmer and handed
chargesheets to eight
officials including
CMHO and CEO.
Moreover, he busted
fake mawa and clari-
fied butter factory,
found electricity thefts
and also took action on
liquor shops operating
after 8 PM.
He also got a doctor
suspended who was
taking a bribe.
Then at 9.30 AM he
reached Jodhpur De-
velopment Authority
where he found only
two staff members pre-
sent in a staff of 250
while those who were
absent were issued a
warning while written
orders for timely start-
ing of district Collec-
torate were issued to all
five Collectors of the
division.
Identity cards have
been made of all staff
and officials and a
dress code will also
come into effect. But
this is not one of a kind
situation for Samit
Sharma rather his en-
tire career has been full
of such sudden inspec-
tions and surprise vis-
its.
Such was his ‘effica-
cy’ that senior officials
and even the minister
while Sharma was in
the labour department,
was miffed at his style
of functioning.
It has only been two
months that Sharma
has become the Divi-
sional Commissioner
of Jodhpur division.
Jodhpur is also the
home district of Chief
Minister Ashok Gehlot
and now that Sharma
has become active and
‘aggressive’, it is spec-
ulated that he has been
given a mandate of bet-
tering the administra-
tion.
However, probably
the most important as-
pect of this is that
Sharma has tried to
breathe life into the
otherwise defunct
institution of Division-
al Commissioner and
perhaps other division-
al Commissioners can
take a cue from Samit!

tor Kangana Ranaut,
who is locked in a bitter
battle with the ruling
Shiv Sena in Maharash-
tra, met state Governor
Bhagat Singh Koshyari
here on Sunday to ap-
prise him of the “injus-
tice” done to her.
She said she ex-
plained to the governor
her “point of view” and
sought “justice”.
The meeting took
place days after the Se-
na-ruled Brihanmum-
bai Municipal Corpora-
tion (BMC) demolished
alleged illegal altera-
tions at Kangana’s bun-
galow at Pali Hill in
suburban Bandra fol-
lowing a verbal spat be-
tween the ruling party
and her over her re-
marks on Mumbai and
the city police.
Talking to reporters
after the meeting at Raj
Bhavan, the actor said,
“I met the governor. He
heard me as a daughter.
I came to meet him as a
citizen.Ihavenothingto
do with politics.”
“I told him about the
injustice meted out to
me and what happened
was improper. It was in-
decent behaviour,” she
said. Kangana was ac-
companied by her sister
Rangoli Chandel.
Both of them re-
moved their masks for

point of view to him and
also requested that jus-
tice be given to me. It
will restore faith of
common citizen and
particularly daughters
in the system.”
The trouble between
the Sena and Kangana
started after the actor
recently said she feared
theMumbaipolicemore
than the “movie mafia”
and likened the Maha-
rashtra capital to Paki-
stan-occupied Kashmir
(PoK).
Reacting to her state-
ment, Sena leader San-
jay Raut had purport-
edly said, “We kindly
request her not to come
to Mumbai. This is noth-
ing but an insult to

The actor, who re-
turned to Mumbai on

TRADITIONAL SEAT
‘USURPED’!
The tussle of ego and supremacy
is not an unknown phenomenon
in the bureaucratic circles and
the latest from the long list of
such tussles is the ‘marathon’ for
hold over a room in the Rajasthan
Secretariat. The tussle, going on
between ACS Rohit Kumar Singh
and Abhay Kumar, has also resulted
in breaking of the long-standing
tradition surrounding the room
of ACS Home. The room, located
on the upper floor of the main
building, had been allotted to
Rohit Kumar Singh when he was
appointed as ACS Home after
Rajeeva Swarup was appointed as
Chief Secretary. Sometime later, the
state government shifted Rohit to
the position of ACS Panchayati Raj,
and with this development, Rohit
would have shifted out of the room
reserved for A S Home. But it was
not to be. A minor tussle went on
for sometime over the ‘ownership’
of the room since Abhay Kumar
was chosen as the administrative
head of the Home department.
The matter was reported to the
Chief Secretary who called both
the officers and an agreement of
sorts was also reached, however,
the old ways soon returned. A
spat again broke out and finally,
putting an end to the entire drama,
the ‘traditional seat’ of ACS Home
has been ‘usurped’ and shifted
elsewhere, in a much smaller office
where Abhay continues to function
from.
WILL HE, WON’T HE?
SAHAB’S WHIMS ON
MEETINGS ANNOY ALL
There is an intense debate going
on in the bureaucratic circles
in Rajasthan as to why a ‘sahab’
is mighty miffed these days that
his anger has crossed the ‘seventh
heaven’, figuratively. Well, it
appears that the Sahab suddenly
became extremely aggressive and
annoyed since his removal from the
election department and sent out
of the Secretariat. However, he was
brought back to the power centre
or the Secretariat but as the Chief
of ARD, but since his return, the
man refuses to meet anyone and
spends hours in his office sitting
alone! Those who come to meet
him have to wait for hours and
still have to leave empty-handed
since the whimsical Sahab denies
meeting after making the person
wait. Crusted with this behaviour,
the people who come to meet vent
their anger on the sahab’s ‘poor’ PA
and now since the water has gone
over the head, even sahab’s staff is
in a rebellious mood!

trusted lieutenant Dr
RaghuSharma.This,ac-
cording to observers is a
huge strategic move
since Gehlot will get
first hand information
and it will be compara-
tively easy for him to
manage ‘Tonk’.
The second important
district is Bharatpur for
which the Chief Minis-
terhasgivenresponsibil-
ity to another of his
trusted lieutenant Dr
Mahesh Joshi. Bharat-
pur,fromwhereTourism
Minister Vishvendra
Singh hails, is also the
home town of Joshi’s
wifeandthereforehehas
agoodconnectinthedis-
trict. With Joshi, Gehlot
has not only ‘balanced’ a
‘firebrand’ rebel, he has
alsomanagedtodelegate
thewellbeingtoaperson
who is well versed with
thechallengesof Bharat-
pur. Today is Mahesh
Joshi’s birthday and this
new charge is being con-
sidered as a birthday gift
toJoshibecauseperhaps
for the first time, the
chief minister has as-
signed the responsibili-
ties of district incharge
to someone who is not
even a minister. Similar-
ly, in Jodhpur also, the
current minister in-
chargeLalchandKataria
has been replaced by an-
other Gehlot loyalist Ma-
hendra Choudhary, who
is also not a minister.
Meanwhile, the re-
maining important ‘re-
bel’ camp is in Karauli
from where Ramesh
Meena,Pilotcampmem-
ber, was a minister. In-
terestingly, here Gehlot
has assigned Ashok
Chandana the responsi-
bility to swing the
‘young’ crowd towards
itself since Ramesh en-
joys the backing of simi-
lar age group.
However, possibly the
biggest and most impor-
tant aspect in this entire
shufflewhichpertainsto
the recent visit of AICC
RajasthanInchargeAjay
Maken. Highly placed
sources reveal that the
changehasbeenbrought
about after the feedback
received by Maken dur-
ing his meeting with
leaders from Jaipur and
Ajmer division. It came
to light that the minis-
ters incharge were not
handling their tasks
properlyandseveralpar-
tyleadersandevenparty
legislators had opened
their fronts against their
respective minister in-
charge. Maken also real-
ised that the caste equa-
tion and locality related
issue were also some-
thing that played a huge
role in dissatisfaction of
the workers and as a re-
sult the district units
were divided into two
heads. Maken’s feed-
back was one of the rea-
sons along with other
administrative and po-
litical requirements,
whichinspiredGehlotto
bring these changes.

Vishal
Jaipur: With the num-
ber of Corona patients
steadily increasing af-
ter the withdrawal of

forms so as to provide
the general public, upto
the level of gram Pan-
chayat, could listen to
the advice of renowned
doctors on precautions
to be adopted for pre-
vention of Corona in-
fection.
It has been seen from
past experience that

tremely important for
prevention of virus
spread and contain-
ment of the pandemic.
To address these con-
cerns, the DIPR is or-
ganizing a public dia-
logue with eminent
doctors.
The seventy minute

ers, district Collectors,
mayor’s and several
others.
During the discus-
sion the doctors will
share details of impor-
tant measures to be
taken by the general
public for prevention of

sioner Soni says that it
is going to prove to be a
major andnunique ini-
tiative on the entire
country to fight the
ways to handle a dredg-
ing pandemic like co-
rona under the leader-
ship of a concerned
chief minister Ashok
Gehlot.

Jaipur:AccordingtoPi-
lot camp sources, their
leader Sachin Pilot is all
set to extensively tour
almost 150 assembly
constituency in the next
couple of months. The
exactdetailsarelikelyto
be worked out by end of
this month. He is likely
to start this massive
travel plan preferable
from eastern Rajasthan,
where he thinks that he
has a large base. Accord-
ing to sources, Gehlot
camp is keeping a close
eye on these develop-
ments. However, in
Jaipur and New Delhi,
Pilot’sthis‘gameplan’is
being considered as a
pressure tactic cam-
paign on CM and as well
as on Congress high
command.Veryrecently,
intelligence agencies
and Gehlot camp had
minutelymonitoredand
supervised Pilot’s blood
donation campaign’ on
his birthday. Now Pilot’s
‘Rajasthan Yatra’ may
prove to be one more
‘headache’fortheruling
setup because it will di-
vert and distract CM’s
attention from his devel-
opment agenda.

Condolences to family members
and supporters on the demise of
Raghuvansh Prasad Singh ji, for-
mer Rural Development Minister
and one of the prominent leaders
of socialist ideology.
It is unfortunate that supporters of certain
political group for decades, have spread lies
that Bapu and Pandit ji did little to prevent the
division of India. They intentionally choose to
ignore the real villain of partition - Jinnah

TWINNING, WITH LOVEBringing you the brief history of ‘Mommy-and-Me-Fashion’ and how ‘twinning outfits’ never
fail to grab attention. Not to forget- this fashion brings the child closer to their Mom!
he trend and phase
of ‘Twinning’ is
something that eve-
ryone has been
through. You would
have definitely had
sight of someone or
the other
twinning-
may it be
a mother
twinning with her child, a
couple twinning with each
other, or even best friends,
for that matter of fact, twin-
ningwiththeirfavouriteout-
fits.
You must have understood
by now that ‘twinning’ is
whentwopeopleappeartobe
twins because they dress up
wearing the same outfit.
Morethananyone,mother
twinning with her daughter
has been cycling in and out
of fashion for more than a
hundred years now, and peo-
ple do find it adorable, no
matter what.
Doyourememberthetime
when you were young and
your mom made you and
your sister wear the same
clothes? Yes, that’s what
we’re talking about here-
that’s the form of pure love.
Similarly, mothers twinning
with their children is the
best way to showcase love,
apart from making them
emotionally feel it.
It is a proven fact that
mothers who often twin with
their children are more at-
tached to them, as it some-
how helps in boosting up the
self-confidence of one anoth-
er. Twinning is entire palat-
able,andtherearenumerous
joys to be found in the coor-
dinating attire.
There are a few celebrities
in the Bollywood and Holly-
wood industry who weren’t
afraid to go full-on twinsy
withtheirkids,andnottofor-
get, they absolutely nailed it.
AishwaryaRaiandAarad-
hya Bachchan, Kim Kar-
dashian and North West,
Katie Holmes and Suri
Cruise, Coco Austin and
Chanel Nicole, Beyonce and
Blue Ivy, Lara Dutta and Sai-
ra Bhupathi, Kareena Ka-
poor and Taimur Ali Khan,
Isha Koppikar and Rianna,
and Manyata Dutt and her
twins Shahraan and Iqra,
among many others.
So what are you waiting
for? No matter how old you
are,orderthatamazingoutfit
so you can twin with your
child, or if you are old
enough, order something for
yourself and your mom, and
make the bond of love even
more special!

GIOGIN JACOB
ansraj Basiya (17)
from Bhawanipura
Sutda village in Bun-
diwas15whenhewas
married off to a girl
younger than him. A
farmer’s son and dai-
ly wage worker, Hansraj
was able to study till the
ninth standard only since
his father could not afford
any further. And the wed-
ding threw open new chal-
lenges and questions - both
physical and mental in na-
ture and Hansraj had no
answers.“Iwastotallyigno-
rantof thephysicalchanges
and issues that adolescence
brings with it,” he said.
That is when Hansraj
was introduced to FAYA
(Feminist and Youth-Led
Action) Program - an initi-
ative by Population Foun-
dation of India which is
working in 4 districts of
Rajasthan – Dungarpur,
Karauli, Bundi and Tonk.
The program aims to en-
hance knowledge of ado-
lescents about their sexual
and reproductive health
(SRH) and build a condu-
cive environment so that
they can access SRH ser-
vices and information.
After consistently speak-
ing to FAYA volunteers,
Hansraj relaxed and was
able to make sense of the
changes in his life and that
of his wife’s. “I was totally
ignorant of the physical
changes and the issues
that adolescence brings
with it. After connecting
with the FAYA project,
itwasinitiallyveryhardfor
me to even talk about my
problems in a session with
others. Butwiththehelpof
the FAYA coordinator, I was
able to understand the com-
plexities of sexual and re-
productive health.”
For Hansraj, it was not
just the changes that came
withpubertyandearlymar-
riage which were hard to
comprehend, it was also a
situation of abject poverty
whichhadclosedmostdoors
of sourcing information.
According to Aradhana
Singh, FAYA, Project coor-
dinator from Bundi, Han-
sraj is now much more
forthcoming about his
health related queries.
“The information provided
in group meetings has im-
pacted his personal life
positively. He is empowered
to be able to make impor-
tant decisions along with
his young wife. They
have decided to delay the
birth of their first child un-
til they are physically and
mentally prepared for it.”
In the absence of ade-
quate technology, support-
ive networks of informa-
tion are safe, encouraging
and non-judgmental - oth-
erwise it is hard for the
young to access facts about
sexuality and reproductive
health services.
And the numbers of
those who need this kind of
information is vast. If we
just take the example of
BundidistrictinRajasthan,
thepopulationof theyoung
aged between 10 to 19 years
is 2,57000. This roughly
amounts to over 23 per cent
of the total population. Go-
ing by this estimate, every
fourth person in the dis-
trict is an adolescent.
According to the Nation-
al Family Health Survey
India (NFHS-4), Bundi also
has 35 percent of women
aged between 20 to 24 years,
who were married off be-
fore the age of 18. This
number far exceeds the na-
tional average of 27 per
cent. What is alarming is
that over 5 percent of ado-
lescent girls are either
pregnant or have already
given birth to children.
These girls are the most
vulnerablesegmentof soci-
ety who are deprived of
their basic right to primary
health care and education.
In Bundi district FAYA is
reaching 3000 adolescent
boys and girls directly and
1000indirectlybyimparting
health education to them.
As result of this intensive
work,manyadolescentsare
now able to discuss and talk
about their sexual and re-
productivehealthproblems.
They also come forward to
share the information with
their peers.
Hansraj is grateful that
he found the help he needed
attherighttimeandhasthe
final word, “When young
people like me are provided
adequate and timely re-
sources to educate them-
selves about puberty and
adolescence related issues,
they can help co-create
a far more progressive
and self -aware society.”

Ankita fulfills
SSR’s dreamushant Singh Rajput had a list of 50 dreams
that he wanted to fulfill, but unfortunately,
he couldn’t carry out all of them during
this lifetime. One of the late actor’s dream
was to plant 1,000 trees. Now, after his un-
timely demise, Sushant’s sister Shweta
Singh Kirti has started an initiative,
‘#Plants4SSR’ to fulfill his dream. Shweta
has requested Sushant’s fans, loved ones,
and followers to plant saplings and help to
fulfill one of the late actor’s dreams. The
recent to take part in this campaign is An-
kita Lokhande.
On Sunday morning, Ankita took to her
social media handle to share pictures of
her planting saplings at her home with her
doggo, as she joined the #Plants4SSR cam-
paign. In the pictures, Ankita can be hap-
pily seen planting saplings at her Mumbai
residence as she made her contribution in
trying to achieve SSR’s dream. She was ac-
companied by her furry friend ‘Hatchi’ in
her planting session in the remembrance
of Sushant Singh Rajput. Along with the
pictures, Ankita also wrote a note for the
late actor. She captioned her pictures as,
“Hatchi and mamma My partner In almost
everything Planting plants. It is our way to
remember him by fulfilling his dream.”
Earlier Shweta had urged people to plant
saplings to not only fulfil SSR’s dream but
also remember their ‘star’ in a wonder-
fully constructive way by fulfilling his
dreams. —ANI

ABOUT CAULDRON SISTERS
Ratika & Richa Khetan, two
sisters, started Cauldron Sisters
in 2015. It started as an exotic
food gift hamper business, but
their love for food encouraged
them to start culinary workshops,
food deliveries, and slowly and
gradually it turned huge as
restaurants and cafes started
approaching them for consultancy.
NEW MENU ALERT!
Parents again SCROLL THROUGH

on 27 August,Anushka Sharma

I
t hasn’t been long since
Chris Evans made his Ins-
tagram debut. The Aveng-
ers: Endgame star debut-
ed on the platform during
the lockdown. He had previ-
ously revealed that he was
going to use the platform to
flood us with photos of his
adorable dog. However, the
actor left the world in shock
with he posted an NSFW pho-
to on his Instagram Stories
and caused a social media
platform. The Avengers:
Endgame actor posted a bare
it all photo in a now-deleted
story.
The Captain America star
shared a short video where
he and his friends were play-
ing Heads Up. The innocent
share ended with a glimpse
of the actor’s phone camera
roll. The roll gave a close look
at his “package”. In another

shot of Chris with the words
“Guard That P***y” written
