filing his nomination
papers on Friday, he
was flanked by 30 lead-
ers, including Raj CM

last-minute twist after

out. The message was
delivered to him by KC
Venugopal, a trusted
leader of the Gandhis.
Though the Gandhis
said they would be neu-
tral, Mallikarjun
Kharge’s nomination at
the Congress office made
it clear that he has the
blessings of the leader-
ship. His papers were
signed by a galaxy of
leaders. Digvijaya Singh,
who was all set to file his
nomination until Mr
Kharge came into the
picture, was also one of
his proposers.
The others include AK
Antony, Ambika Soni,
AbhishekManuSinghvi,
Deepender S Hooda, Sal-
man Khurshid, V Naray-
anasamy, Tariq Anwar
and Rajiv Shukla.

Sonia Gandhi in 2020
calling for big reforms in

held a long consulta-
tion with Mallikarjun

minute twist after Gehlot dropped out.
The message was delivered to him by

Mallikarjun Kharge files his nomination papers for the post of party President, at the AICC HQ in Delhi on
Friday. Congress leaders Digvijaya Singh, Bhupinder Singh Hooda, Ashok Gehlot & others are also seen.

want to give my everything to strengthen the Congress. If it was under my
control, I would not take any position. —Ashok Gehlot, Rajasthan CM

the tale of the Congress
president polls, Digvijaya
Singh on Friday said he
was dropping out of the
race for the top post and
announced his support for
Mallikarjun Kharge, who
is likely to be in the fray.

criticise the Congress
government. In a relat-
ed development, Union

when Sachin Pilot had
rebelled in Manesar, the
writer of that script
was also the Chief Min-
ister and recently the
incident when MLAs
did not go before the ob-
servers of the party and
rebelled, even in this
the CM is responsible.

and said that the Con-
gress government in
the state is in minority
and it has no right to
continue in power.

dig at Chief Minister
Ashok Gehlot and said
that he has been boast-
ing of being a disci-

neurial Rajasthan so
that unemployment is
reduced in the state and

veloped. For this, the

ment. Industries De-

Jaipur: Chief Minis-
ter Ashok Gehlot on
Friday directed offi-
cials to resolve “anom-
alies” in reservations
due to which youths
belonging to the Other
Backward Classes
(OBCs) were facing dif-
ficulties in landing
government jobs.
His assurance
comes after the OBC
Aarakshan Sangharsh
Samiti staged a sit-in
led at the Shaheed
Smarak here on Fri-
day, demanding the
removal of all anoma-
lies in reservations.
The protesters also
held discussions with
officials in the Chief
Minister’s Office. Pun-
jab Congress in-charge
Harish Chaudhary
and Jat Sabha presi-
dent Raja Ram Meel
participated in the
dharna on behalf of
the protesters.
Congress state presi-
dent Govind Singh Do-
tasra, who attended the
meeting, tweeted, “The
youths are agitating
over discrepancies in
OBC reservations.”
The OBC Aarakshan
Sangharsh Samiti is de-
manding that the gov-
ernment amend the cir-
cular issued in 2018 re-
garding the reservation
to ex-servicemen. The
Samiti said in several
recruitments, general
OBC candidates did not
get the reservation ben-
efits because the OBC
quota was occupied by
ex-servicemen.

TOP TWEETS
FOURTH RAISE IN
RATES TO FIGHT
INFLATION, MORE
HIKE MAY COME
fter last week’s inter-
estratehike,thethird
in a row, by the US
Federal Reserve by 75
basis points the Bank
of England also raised its key in-
terest rate from 1.75 percent to
2.25 percent to combat inflation,
it was a matter of time for the Re-
serveBankof Indiatofollowsuit.
On Friday the Monetary Policy
Committee raised the interest
rate by 50 bps points since May to
fightinflationarypressures.This
is the fourth rate hike by the RBI
as the inflation continues to be
beyonditscomfortlevel.The“ag-
gressive” monetary policies be-
ing pursued by central banks of
developed countries facing the
threat of recession in view of
Russia-Ukraine conflict.
The Russian invasion has led
to prices of food, especially cere-
als, to go beyond the common
man’s reach. With August infla-
tion at 7 percent, economists
predicted that a rate hike was
inevitable. More such hikes can-
not be ruled out if inflation re-
mains beyond control.
A
he difference be-
tween a developed
and a developing
nation lies in how
much freedom
women are allowed over their
bodies. In a widely criticised
and regressive judgment the
USSupremeCourtoverturned
an over 40-year-old judgment
to ban abortion in the country
.
The 1973 Roe vs Wade order
whichmadeabortionaconsti-
tutional right cast aside that
verdict on June 24 with a six-
three majority to turn the
clock back on women. The In-
dian Supreme Court in a his-
toric judgment did the exact
opposite of the US court’s rul-
ing and allowed abortion un-
der the Medical Termination
of Pregnancy Act.
The ruling, which should
serve as template for the US
Supreme Court, allows a
woman who is in a live-in re-
lationship and also a married
woman to terminate a preg-
nancy from 20-24 weeks. To
ensure autonomy to a wom-
an, the court said that no
third party interference will
be required. The other first
in the judgment is that it rec-
ognises marital rape, which
has been much debated.
The progressive judgment
has been cheered by women
across the country. In con-
trast the US Supreme Court’s
verdict was condemned not
only by women but also by
President Joe Biden as a
near-total ban came into ef-
fect across half of America.
The so-called developed
Europe still has an abortion
ban in The Vatican and Po-
land, besides a couple of
other countries. Once Geor-
gia Meloni takes over as
prime minister the whole of
Italy could see a ban on med-
ical termination of pregnan-
cies due to her Catholic be-
liefs to take control of a
woman’s body
.
A PROGRESSIVE
VERDICT BY SC
The progressive judgment has
been cheered by women across
the country. In contrast the
US Supreme Court’s
verdict was condemned
not only by women but
also by President Joe
Biden as a near-total ban
came into effect across
half of America
T
ADOPT A NEW
DIRECTION TO SUCCESS
Be it Steve jobs or Harish
Hande, either if it’s a
company or an 0rganization
one thing was common in
such personalities; they
created their own path. A
known path is easy to tread
upon but there are very few
people who make their own
path. Risk-takers have such
intentions and so should
you to adopt a new way
of thinking for making
your own path
very unique way of thinking
starts with keeping in mind
the inclusion of all factors.
OnlyWhenwestartobserving
things from everyone’s per-
spective; new and innovative
imagination start forming in
our minds. Inclusion here
means taking into considera-
tion the feelings of people
whomwehateorignoresome-
times.Theonly waytochange
their perspective or respect
towards is generally through
our innovative work. Let’s
take an example of Nissan.
Nissan wanted to design a car
for the European market. So
in order to do so, the company
sent its auto designer to Eu-
ropeandhetookdifferentcars
on rent and travelled thou-
sands of miles to experience
what European motorists Ex-
perience while Driving.
They drove various areas
like Alps of France, the whole
of Italy
, Autobahn of German
in those cars. Then on arriv-
ing back, he designed a car
that was perfect for the Euro-
pean market. So innovative
thinking means considering
the end-users needs. Innova-
tive thinking has always had
risks. We feel unsatisfied if
our child won’t study in high
paying fields like engineering
and medicine, and also if he
is not superior to his cousins
and neighbors. But if we al-
low our child to follow his/
her then there are high pos-
sibilities of the child turning
out to be an Innovator. How-
ever, all of it is about taking a
risk. As Steve jobs once said
in a very apt manner, we
don’t allow our children to do
experiments; we don’t allow
them to fail in his subject of
interest. In India, there is no
respect of a person who failed
once, well in case of Silicon
Valley such person assumed
more valued.
If we take the e x -
ample of Harish Hande, Har-
ish Hande experienced the
importance of innovative
thinking while he was pursu-
ing doctorate at Boston Uni-
versity in the USA. He got a
chance to visit the Domini-
can Republic once. It was
there when he understood
the relationship between
poverty and darkness for the
first time. After that, his
heart belonged there and he
decided to contribute his en-
tire life in producing afford-
able energy sources for poor
and needy people.
After that he started spend-
ing sometime in the villages
of Sri Lanka to understand
the needs and struggles of
such people. There was no-
body who knew English over
there. He invented the solar
devices, not keeping in mind
how it would benefit the city
but from the perspective of
the village area. People of the
village of Sri Lanka told Mr
Harish that scarcity of heat
or solar light is not our prob-
lem. But the problem was of
the cluster of elephants that
comes in the night and they
destroy crops and harts and
also kill people many times.
Harish made solar operat-
ed fencing to protect the lives
and wealth of people. Then
he came to India to establish
SELCO. The main aim of tak-
ing this risk of Four Million
Dollars was only to identify
new uses of energy and im-
prove the lives of villages as
well as cities by that continu-
ous innovation.
Harish had the ability to
take a high paying job any-
where in the world. But he
took social responsibility for
people who were at the bot-
tom of the economic pyra-
mid by ignoring the strug-
gles. Be it Steve jobs or Har-
ish Hande, either if it’s a
company or an 0rganization
one thing was common in
such personalities; they cre-
ated their own path. A known
path is easy to tread upon but
there are very few people
who make their own path.
Risk-takers have such inten-
tions and so should you to
adopt a new way of thinking
for making your own path.
THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY
THE AUTHOR ARE PERSONAL
E
Every unique way of
thinking starts with
keeping in mind the
inclusion of all factors.
Only when we start
observing things from
everyone’s
perspective; new and
innovative imagination
start forming in our
minds. Inclusion here
means taking into
consideration the
feelings of people
whom we hate or
ignore sometimes

JUDGMENT OR DECREE OBTAINED BY FRAUD
IS TO BE TREATED AS A NULLITY, SAYS SC
HOLD ROUTE MARCH ON NOVEMBER 6:
MADRAS HIGH COURT DIRECTS RSS
New Delhi: The Supreme Court observed that a decree
obtained by fraud is to be treated as a nullity. Non-disclosure
of the relevant and material documents
with a view to obtain an undue advantage
would amount to fraud, it said. In this
case, the Allahabad High Court had set
aside the order passed by the Deputy
Collector, Rasoolabad cancelling the
fair price shop licence of petitioner. It was found that the
cancellation was done without following the inquiry process.
Chennai: The Madras High Court on Friday directed the
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) to hold its ‘route
marches’ and public meetings in 51 places in Tamil Nadu
on November 6, instead of the originally proposed October
2. Justice GK Ilanthiraiyan, who gave the direction to this
effect, while entertaining a contempt application from the
RSS, also directed the state government and the police to
give the permission and inform the court on the same by
October 31. If no decision is taken or permission is not
given, the court will take up the contempt application and
proceed to pass orders, the judge warned.

BAIL TO OWAISI’S
ATTACKERS: SC
SEEKS UP’S REPLY
New Delhi: The Supreme
Court has sought the
response of UP govt
on a plea by AIMIM
chief Asaduddin Owaisi
challenging the bail to
two persons who are
accused of firing at
his vehicle in February
this year. A bench
issued notices to the
UP government and the
two accused — Sachin
Sharma, Shubham Gurjar
— on the limited issue.
SUPREME COURT
DISMISSES PLEA
OVER EVMS
New Delhi: The Supreme
Court on Friday dismissed
a plea which claimed
EVMs were “controlled”
by some companies
and not the Election
Commission, saying the
court is not a place where
everybody walks in just
to get “some publicity”. It
said the election process
under is monitored by the
Election Commission and
EVMs are being used in
polls for decades now.
Sharat K Verma
New Delhi: In West
Bengal, the sword of
Enforcement Directo-
rate (ED) hangs over
more than two dozen
MLAs and ministers of
Mamata Banerjee gov-
ernment. Apart from
this, Leader of Opposi-
tion in the Assembly
Shubhendu Adhikari
has said that he is going
to give a list of 99 such
MLAs to the ED, who
have assets dispropor-
tionate to their known
sources of income.
These 25 people are also
included in those 99
people. The sword
hangs on the current
list of 25 legislators be-
cause of the Kolkata
High Court where a PIL
to probe the alleged un-
accounted assets of
these leaders is pending
since 2017. This petition
has been filed by Biplab
Dev Choudhary
. Recent-
ly, state government
minister Partha Chat-
terjee’s establishments
were raided, cash was
found and he was ar-
rested, then Biplab
Chaudhary again
reached the High Court.
While hearing this
case, the High Court
has also made the ED a
party in it. Against
this decision of the
High Court, three min-
isters of the state gov-
ernment — Firhad
Hakim, Jyotipriya Ma-
lik and Arup Roy —
have reached the court.
They have contested
that the ED should not
be involved in this case
as the Election Com-
mission and Income
Tax Department have
not got any unaccount-
ed property from them.
However, from the
stand of the court, it
seems that the ED will
be a party in this and
the court will give its
investigation to the
ED. Those whose as-
sets are to be investi-
gated include Firhad
Hakim, Jyotipriya Ma-
lik, Malay Ghatak,
Bratyavrata Basu etc
and the name of BJP
MP Arjun Singh is also
included in this. He
has recently returned
to the Trinamool Con-
gress. The names of
big leaders like Gau-
tam Deb, Amit Mitra,
Abdur Razak Mollah,
Madan Mitra are also
included in this.

PFI members, who
joined the dreaded ter-
ror organisation ISIS,
always took a long cir-
cuitous route to avoid
the security dragnet be-
fore arriving in conflict
theatres like Syria to
take part in jihad, gov-
ernment officials said.
The PFI was banned
on Tuesday for five
years for allegedly hav-
ing “links” with global
terror organisations
like the ISIS and trying
to spread communal ha-
tred in the country
.
According to docu-
ments prepared by NIA,
there were a few cases
of youths getting killed
or arrested at foreign
soil and later being de-
ported back to India.
In 2017, Kerala Police
received information
that some Muslims had
migrated to Syria and
some were planning to
join hands with ISIS in
its jihad and most of the
accused in the case
were PFI members.

Prez urges Indian DESO to utilize technology to the maximum possible extent for effective administration
New Delhi (PTI) : Pres-
ident Droupadi Mur-
mu on Friday said that
primary aim of public
servants should be to
serve the nation and its
people with utmost sin-
cerity
. She was speaking
to the officers/officer
trainees of Indian De-
fence Estates Service,
Indian Skill Develop-
ment Service, Indian
Trade Service and Indi-
an Telecom Service,
who had called on the
president at Rashtrapa-
ti Bhavan in Delhi.
Addressing the offic-
ers, Murmu said that
after becoming part of
the respective services,
their primary aim
should be to serve the
nation and its people
with utmost sincerity.
In their journey as pub-
lic servants, they will
get opportunities to
bring about changes
which can transform
the lives of people, the
president said. She was
confident that if young
offices pursue the path
of serving the people,
they will earn a great
deal of job satisfaction.
The president was
happy to note that the
Directorate General of
Defence Estates has
adopted technologies
like satellite imagery,
geo-spatial techniques
and artificial intelli-
gence for management
of defence estates. She
urged Indian Defence
Estates Service Officers
to utilize technology to
the maximum possible
extent for effective ad-
ministration of the can-
tonments. The presi-
dent said that technolo-
gy has even more cen-
tral role to play in the
career of Indian Tele-
com Service officers.
India has undergone a
telecom revolution dur-
ing the last two decades,
she said. Launch of mo-
bile telephony and fast-
er internet networks in
India have enabled the
country to tap its vast
digital potential.
Huge cache of ammunition

Will the decision regarding giving symbol to Shiv
Sena be different from ECI’s decision on LJP?
Mahesh Sharma
New Delhi: It is a mil-
lion dollar question
whether the Election
Commission will take
the same decision on
Shiv Sena as it has done
in the case of Lok Jan-
shakti Party or will its
decisiononShivSenabe
entirely different? This
question has been aris-
ing ever since the Su-
preme Court ordered
that the Election Com-
mission should decide
about Shiv Sena. At the
same time, it is also be-
ing said that the deci-
sion of the Supreme
Court is a major victory
for the Eknath Shinde
faction and a huge blow
to the Uddhav Thacker-
ay faction. It is also sur-
prising as to why is
there a perception that
the decision of the Elec-
tion Commission in the
Shiv Sena case will go
against the Uddhav
Thackeray faction?
The model of Lok
Janshakti Party is in
front of the Election
Commission. After the
death of Ram Vilas Pas-
wan, there was a split in
the Lok Janshakti Party
and five out of the six
MPs of the party came
together and claimed
themselves to be the rep-
resentatives of ‘real’
LJP. The Speaker also
gave them recognition
in the Lok Sabha. The
leader of that faction,
Pashupati Paras, is a
minister in the central
government. Later,
when the real party’s
claim reached the Elec-
tion Commission, the
commission gave a bal-
ancing decision. The
commission confiscated
the Lok Janshakti Party
name and election sym-
bol. So, the name of the
party of Pashupati Pa-
ras faction is Rashtriya
Lok Janshakti Party
and the name of the
party of Chirag Paswan
faction is Lok Janshakti
Party Ramvilas.
So, the commission
has a previous prece-
dent to take a similar
decision in the case of
Shiv Sena. Shiv Sena’s
name and its ‘arrow-
bow’ election symbol
should be confiscated
and separate names and
symbols should be allot-
ted to both the groups.
But if it has to happen
then how will it be a ma-
jor victory for the Shin-
de faction? A big victory
for the Shinde faction
will happen when it gets
the name and election
symbol of Shiv Sena.
Only then will it have
any advantage in the
municipal elections to
be held in the next few
days. Like LJP, in Shiv
Sena too, most of the
MPs and MLAs are with
the Eknath Shinde fac-
tion but the party organ-
ization is still with Ud-
dhav Thackeray
.

been shut for the oppo-
sition and media doesn’t
listen to us. There’s total
government control.
Our mics are muted in

tion and opposition is
harassed. In this situa-

Aditi Nagar
New Delhi: Chief
Minister Ashok Ge-
hlot, who has camped
in Delhi over the un-
certainty regarding
Congress president
election said on Fri-
day, that he has no de-
sire for any post. “My
job is to strengthen
the Congress party,”
Gehlot said to the me-
dia before Mallikar-
jun Kharge filed nom-
ination for the post of
Congress President.
He said that what-
ever responsibility he
gets from the party, he
will fulfill it and has
assured the High
Command of this. Re-
garding the election
of Congress Presi-
dent, Gehlot said,
“Gandhi family has
always been neutral
in this and my work is
only to strengthen the
Congress. Today the
country needs Con-
gress to be strong. I
welcome Kharge’s
nomination. He is a
very senior leader.”
Gehlot, who denied
contesting the presi-
dency election,
termed Kharge’s deci-
sion to contest as a
‘right decision’. “All
seniors took the deci-
sion to contest
Kharge. President
election is a friendly
match. I have become
a proposer of Mall-
ikarjun Kharge’s
election nomination.
I have been a Con-
gress loyalist for 50
years and whatever
happened is com-
pletely against my
nature. Position is not
important for me,
rather I want to give
my everything to
strengthen the Con-
gress. If it was under
my control, I would
not take any position.
Right now the party is
in trouble and I don’t
know to run in trou-
ble. It is very impor-
tant to have a strong
opposition in the
country. Rahul Gan-
dhi has set out to
strengthen Congress.
I am with Rahul Gan-
dhi in the campaign
to strengthen Con-
gress. For me, the de-
cision of the high
command is every-
thing,” he said.
Gehlot also said
that the Congress
never kept him empty
handed. “Always
some or the other re-
sponsibility has been
given by the organiza-
tion to me. One gets
tired even in a politi-
cal career of 50 years.
I have also apologised
to Congress Presi-
dent Sonia Gandhi
for the developments
that took place in
Jaipur on Sunday.
What happened is un-
fortunate,” Gehlot
said and expressed
full confidence in
Congress President
Sonia Gandhi and
said that whatever de-
cision the Gandhi
family takes, it will
be accepted.
Meanwhile, during
the day Gehlot met
Mallikarjun Kharge
at his residence. Ge-
hlot also met senior
Congress leader Am-
bika Soni at Jodhpur
House. Later in the
evening, Gehlot flew
back to Jaipur.
Be free, free to do your duty,
handle your responsibilities
and free to be happy!

Rajendra Chhabra
Jaipur: The search for
new Commissioner for
the Rajasthan State In-
formation Commission
has been initiated as
the current Commis-
sioner - 65 year old
Narain Bareth - retired
on Friday, September
30. He was appointed to
the position in Decem-
ber 2020 and at present
one Chief Commission-
er and 4 Commissioner
are posted in the Com-
missioner.
At present, former
Chief Secretary of Ra-
jasthan - DB Gupta - is
serving as Chief Secre-
tary. Along with him, a
total strength of five
Commissioners is
working here, includ-
ing Bareth, but with his
retirement, one post
has fallen vacant. The
state government has
already sought applica-
tions for the vacant post
and August 26 was the
last date for applica-
tion. Sources reveal
that more than a dozen
applications have been
received, among which
are four retired IAS and
2 journalists. Accord-
ing to the Act, the new
appointment is done by
Governor and the term
is either for five year or
65 years of age.
The previous BJP
government had ap-
pointed journalist
Ashutosh Sharma as
Commissioner and con-
tinuing this tradition,
the present Congress
government appointed
journalist Narain Ba-
reth as Commissioner.
Hence the journalists
who have applied for the
position, are keeping
their fingers crossed.
Meanwhile, the file
regarding starting pen-
sion of retired CIC and
Commissioners is also
doing the rounds in the
government. According
to sources, the file has
reached up to the Chief
Ministerial level for ap-
proval.
State to get new Information Commissioner soon!
Aishwary Pradhan
Jaipur: Prime Minister
Narendra Modi is on a
tour of poll-bound Gu-
jarat. However, his visit
would have an impact
on over half a dozen dis-
tricts of neighbouring
Rajasthan too. Besides,
Modi will cover a dis-
tance of 18-km inside
Rajasthan to reach Abu
Road airstrip before fly-
ing to New Delhi. BJP
welcomed PM Modi at
Abu Road in Sirohi dis-
trict bordering Gujarat
around 7pm on Friday
.
Sirohi’s adjoining
districts, including
Udaipur, Banswara,
Dungarpur and Jalore,
have a strong Gujarat
connection. The main
reason for this is that a
large population of
these districts fre-
quents or lives in Guja-
rat for education or em-
ployment. Moreover,
Abu Road where PM
Modi will reach this
evening has a sizable
tribal population. The
message of PM’s Guja-
rat trip is sure to perco-
late to parts of Ra-
jasthan too.
The subtle message is
also a beginning for Ra-
jasthan politics which
is bound to heat up be-
fore it goes to polls next
year. This assumes sig-
nificance in the light of
the recent dramatic de-
velopment within the
Rajasthan Congress.
BJP would surely want
to avenge its defeat in
the state and win with a
huge majority
.
PM MODI’S GUJ TRIP TO IMPACT
NEIGHBOURING RAJ AREAS TOO
My work is to strengthen
the Congress party: Gehlot
PM’s brief trip to Rajasthan will

prominent leaders of Raj BJP
The message is also a beginning for
Raj politics, which is bound to heat
up before it goes to polls next year
If it was under my
control, I wouldn’t
take any position.

Munishwar Nath Bhandari
New Delhi (ANI):
Amid a protracted
crisis in the Con-
gress, the supporters
of Sachin Pilot gath-
ered at the AICC of-
fice in the national
capital on Friday and
demanded that he be
elected as the party
president or be made
the chief minister of
Rajasthan.
As soon as Ra-
jasthan Chief Minis-
ter Ashok Gehlot ar-
rived at the All India
Congress Committee
(AICC) office, the sup-
porters began raising
slogans in favour of
Pilot.
“We want to see
Sachin Pilot as the
chief minister of Ra-
jasthan or as the na-
tional president of
Congress,”saidasup-
porter of Pilot.
“Rahul Gandhi is
also young; the future
of India is in the
hands of the youth.
Till the youth is not
given a top post, Con-
gress will not get
power. Pilot knows
about problems at the
ground level and
what the party work-
ers go through. We
demand he be made
the party president,”
he added. Gehlot
Thursday announced
he was pulling out of
the Congress presi-
dential polls follow-
ing the political tur-
moil in Rajasthan.
Pilot’s supporters
wanted to see him as
the next Rajasthan
CM in the event Ge-
hlot shifted to Delhi.
The young leader met
interim party presi-
dent Sonia Gandhi in
Delhi Thursday
. After
the meeting, he said
the decision of the
Congress chief will
be final on who will
be at the helm of af-
fairs in Rajasthan.
Pilot’s supporters raise
slogans outside AICC
office as Gehlot arrives
Modi addresses…
During this, Modi
bowed his head to the
people who attended
the program and prom-
ised that the ‘debt of
this love will be re-
turned with interest’.
Along with this, Modi
also promised to visit
Abu Road again. Inter-
estingly, as Modi
reached the main
stage, the crowd pre-
sent greeted him by
lighting the mobile
lights. During this,
many senior BJP lead-
ers and MLAs includ-
ing former Chief Min-
ister Vasundhara Raje,
BJP State President
Satish Poonia, Leader
of Opposition in the
Assembly Gulabchand
Kataria, Union Minis-
ter Gajendra Singh
Shekhawat, Kailash
Chaudhary, MP PP
Chaudhary and Jalore
MP Devji Bhai Patel
were also present.
FROM P1…
Gehlot to…
G-23 leaders also
agreed after talks with
Gehlot and all these
people became propos-
ers for Mallikarjun
Kharge. As a result,
now G-23 has not field-
ed any candidate and
thus now Kharge is al-
most certain to become
the Congress Presi-
dent. Notably, Kharge
is Gehlot’s old ‘ally’.
Meanwhile, as far as
the question of legisla-
ture party meeting to
elect a new chief min-
ister is concerned, now
that issue has also got
stuck because no CLP
meeting is taking place
for the next few days.
Thus the work of
choosing the new Chief
Minister has also been
postponed.
Meanwhile, a source
related to Delhi gave
indication that if Ge-
hlot continues to be the
CM, then Pilot could be
made PCC Chief a new
post, that of Organiza-
tion General Secretary
for the States of North-
ern India, may be cre-
ated. But the million
dollar question is:
Whether Pilot will
agree to this new ‘of-
fer’, which has already
been rejected by him,
more than once. The
Gehlot camp has adopt-
ed the strategy of ‘Wait
and Watch’ as Gehlot
returned to Jaipur on
Friday evening after a
three-day stay in Delhi
following which sever-
al ministers and MLAs
rushed to CMR to meet
Gehlot. Gehlot, focus-
sing back on Rajasthan,
has resumed his tours
to observe Rural Olym-
pics  will tour Bikan-
er, Sri Ganganagar Ha-
numangarh today.

SHOULDERS
TAKETHE
WEIGHTOFFYOUR
here is a reason
why off-the-
shoulder cloth-
ing is fashionable
today. They’ve
been popular for
a very long time
and are going out of style
anytime soon. People are
still rocking them with
formal attire, casual at-
tire, and even at parties.
Off shoulders can be
worn in a variety of ways
depending on your com-
fort level and what looks
best on you. They provide
an incredibly elegant and
feminine appearance
with complete comfort,
which explains why they
are very in style.
Off-shoulders actually
help you increase your
style quotient. The best
thing about them is their
adaptability. Even in cas-
ual office attire, they are
deserving enough to set
standards at formal even-
ing meetings or parties.
This fashion makes you
look incredibly astonish-
ing and conventional at
the same time. It’s a per-
fect costume for any for-
mal occasion, and it has a
touch of sophistication
and elegance.
It can be accessorised
with some classy picks
such as pointed heels and
a basic watch to complete
the look. An off-shoulder
is definitely appropriate
for a casual outing. An off-
shoulder is always com-
fortable and simple to
wear for the ideal summer
appearance, whether it’s
for a luncheon or a day of
shopping. It’s incredible
how this straightforward
design can be dressed up
to seem utterly edgy. The
nicest aspect is that they
are so versatile because
they are made of so many
different materials and
patterns. Without experi-
mentation, one cannot
improve their style, but if
that has failed, blacks ap-
pear to be the best option.
Keep in mind that you can
wear practically any col-
our if you are confident.
Remember to always ex-
periment to see what
matches your personality
the best.

TOP 10 HEALTHY WEIGHT
GAIN FOODS FOR KIDS
BREAST MILK
The unique composition
of breast milk makes it a
perfect source of nutrition
for the infant. Six months
of exclusive breastfeed-
ing in the first year of life
is recommended. Breast
milk contains long-chain
polyunsaturated fatty acids
that help in the normal
growth and development of
the baby. These fatty acids
also help the immature
brain to develop. Breast
milk increases the concen-
tration of growth factors
in the body, which cause
weight gain in underweight
infants.
EGGS
Eggs are power-packed
with high-quality
proteins and healthy
fats. One egg contains
approximately 6 grams of
protein. Daily consumption
of eggs enhances muscle
gain and weight gain in
underweight children.
Whole eggs also contain
vitamin A and vitamin B12,
which are required for the
growth and development of
a child. It further promotes
the healthy development
of the brain and the central
nervous system.
BANANAS
Bananas are a great
source of energy and
one banana has around
100 calories. Bananas con-
tain less moisture content
and more carbohydrate
content that help in healthy
weight gain. You can give
this energy-dense nutri-
tious fruit to your child in
different forms, like:
Mashed banana
Banana milkshake or
smoothies
Banana topped with
peanut butter
Or plain banana
PURE GHEE WHEN
Added to the diet of
underweight kids,
helps in weight gain and
boosts immunity too. It
strengthens the bones and
improves hair and the skin.
Though it is one of the
foods known to help gain
weight, initially start with
a half teaspoon and never
give more than a teaspoon
because it can render the
digestive system sluggish.
Replace other cooking oils
with pure ghee once in a
while to boost weight gain.
POTATOES
Mashed potatoes or
baked ones can be
a good snack option for
kids who are underweight.
Potatoes are a rich source
of carbohydrates, which
can help in putting on
weight. Children who are
underweight tend to get
tired soon. Starchy foods
like potatoes increase
the muscle glycogen
stores, which is the
main source of energy
for most activities. How
to Get Your Kids to Eat
Healthy? Make your child
eat small, frequent and
nutrient-dense meals.
Eating just deep-fried
foods and sugar-laden
foods can cause unhealthy
weight gain. Give your
little one food contain-
ing protein and healthy
fats to promote healthy
weight gain. Introduce
new foods slowly and one
at a time. If kids are not
eating plain vegetables
or fruits, pair them with
hummus, avocado dip
or nut butter. Often kids
do not enjoy plain milk.
Add some fruits or dark
chocolate to the milk to
enhance its taste. Parents
can replace water and add
milk to soups or use milk
to knead the dough.
How do we Increase
Weight in Kids?
Weight gain in kids can
be difficult because they
do not eat everything
that is put on their plate.
With a little planning
and the addition of ener-
gy-dense healthy foods to
their diet, weight gain is
achievable. Parents need
to first find out the child’s
weight status category:
Less than the 5th per-
centile: underweight
5th percentile to less
than 85th percentile:
normal or healthy
weight
85th to less than 95th
percentile: overweight
Above 95th percen-
tile: obese
With the help of this
“Height and Weight Cal-
culator for Children”,
parents can easily calcu-
late the ideal height and
weight of the children
according to their gender
and age.
What Is the Need for
Introducing Healthy
Foods in Kids’ Diet?
The best time to estab-
lish healthy eating pat-
terns is early childhood
because these habits and
patterns will impact how
kids eat as adults. A nu-
tritionally-balanced and
wholesome diet is re-
quired for optimal growth
and development.
Being underweight or
malnourished increases
the risk of acquiring in-
fectious diseases. There-
fore, it is important to
introduce healthy foods
one at a time and speak
to your little one about
their amazing benefits
for the body.

10 SUPER HEALTHY WEIGHT GAIN FOODS FOR KIDS
DAIRY PRODUCTS
Dairy products like milk, curd
and cheese are packed with
the goodness of proteins
and calcium and other vital
nutrients as well. Calcium
supports the healthy growth
and development of bones in
children. Make sure you give
your little one two glasses of
milk per day. If your kid does
not like plain milk, give milk in
the form of milkshakes.
CHICKEN
Chicken is an amazing source of
protein, iron, zinc, vitamin B6,
B12, copper, phosphorus and
selenium. This power-packed lean
meat helps in building muscles,
which is the best way to make
your child put on weight. Muscle
gain does not make your little one
look flabby.Chicken is easy to cook
and a versatile ingredient. It can
be used to prepare curries, pulao,
sandwiches, soups or chicken can
be simply grilled or baked.
NUTS AND
DRY FRUITS
Dry fruits are a dense source
of calories and nutrients. They
are a healthy snack option,
which can give your little one a
much-needed energy boost.
They are rich in dietary fibre
and other nutrients, which
strengthen the immune
system and keep infections at
bay. Besides this, nuts contain
healthy fat that promotes
weight gain as well as the
healthy development of the
brain and the central nervous
system.
OATS
People think oatmeal is diet
food, but when combined
with whole milk and topped
with healthy nuts and dry
fruits, oatmeal porridge can
be a perfect recipe to boost
weight gain. This nutritious
food ingredient is loaded
with dietary fibre that aids
healthy bowel movements
and prevents constipation.
If the bowel movements are
healthy, your child will feel
hungry and eat properly from
time to time. A proper eating
timetable can help your little
one gain a healthy weight.
AVOCADOS
Avocado is a fruit
with high amounts of
healthy fat. Unlike other
whole fruits, its sugar
content is low, whereas
its fat content is on the
higher side. Loaded with
vitamins, minerals and
antioxidants, avocado has
a creamy and rich texture.
Such a composition of avo-
cado makes it calorie dense
and promotes weight gain.
You can make the avocado
dip, milkshake or simply
bake avocado slices for
your toddler.

TOP TWEETS FOURTH RAISE IN RATES TO FIGHT INFLATION, MORE HIKE MAY COME fter last week’s inter- estratehike,thethird in a row, by the US Federal Reserve by 75 basis points the Bank of England also raised its key in- terest rate from 1.75 percent to 2.25 percent to combat inflation, it was a matter of time for the Re- serveBankof Indiatofollowsuit. On Friday the Monetary Policy Committee raised the interest rate by 50 bps points since May to fightinflationarypressures.This is the fourth rate hike by the RBI as the inflation continues to be beyonditscomfortlevel.The“ag- gressive” monetary policies be- ing pursued by central banks of developed countries facing the threat of recession in view of Russia-Ukraine conflict. The Russian invasion has led to prices of food, especially cere- als, to go beyond the common man’s reach. With August infla- tion at 7 percent, economists predicted that a rate hike was inevitable. More such hikes can- not be ruled out if inflation re- mains beyond control. A he difference be- tween a developed and a developing nation lies in how much freedom women are allowed over their bodies. In a widely criticised and regressive judgment the USSupremeCourtoverturned an over 40-year-old judgment to ban abortion in the country . The 1973 Roe vs Wade order whichmadeabortionaconsti- tutional right cast aside that verdict on June 24 with a six- three majority to turn the clock back on women. The In- dian Supreme Court in a his- toric judgment did the exact opposite of the US court’s rul- ing and allowed abortion un- der the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act. The ruling, which should serve as template for the US Supreme Court, allows a woman who is in a live-in re- lationship and also a married woman to terminate a preg- nancy from 20-24 weeks. To ensure autonomy to a wom- an, the court said that no third party interference will be required. The other first in the judgment is that it rec- ognises marital rape, which has been much debated. The progressive judgment has been cheered by women across the country. In con- trast the US Supreme Court’s verdict was condemned not only by women but also by President Joe Biden as a near-total ban came into ef- fect across half of America. The so-called developed Europe still has an abortion ban in The Vatican and Po- land, besides a couple of other countries. Once Geor- gia Meloni takes over as prime minister the whole of Italy could see a ban on med- ical termination of pregnan- cies due to her Catholic be- liefs to take control of a woman’s body . A PROGRESSIVE VERDICT BY SC The progressive judgment has been cheered by women across the country. In contrast the US Supreme Court’s verdict was condemned not only by women but also by President Joe Biden as a near-total ban came into effect across half of America T ADOPT A NEW DIRECTION TO SUCCESS Be it Steve jobs or Harish Hande, either if it’s a company or an 0rganization one thing was common in such personalities; they created their own path. A known path is easy to tread upon but there are very few people who make their own path. Risk-takers have such intentions and so should you to adopt a new way of thinking for making your own path very unique way of thinking starts with keeping in mind the inclusion of all factors. OnlyWhenwestartobserving things from everyone’s per- spective; new and innovative imagination start forming in our minds. Inclusion here means taking into considera- tion the feelings of people whomwehateorignoresome- times.Theonly waytochange their perspective or respect towards is generally through our innovative work. Let’s take an example of Nissan. Nissan wanted to design a car for the European market. So in order to do so, the company sent its auto designer to Eu- ropeandhetookdifferentcars on rent and travelled thou- sands of miles to experience what European motorists Ex- perience while Driving. They drove various areas like Alps of France, the whole of Italy , Autobahn of German in those cars. Then on arriv- ing back, he designed a car that was perfect for the Euro- pean market. So innovative thinking means considering the end-users needs. Innova- tive thinking has always had risks. We feel unsatisfied if our child won’t study in high paying fields like engineering and medicine, and also if he is not superior to his cousins and neighbors. But if we al- low our child to follow his/ her then there are high pos- sibilities of the child turning out to be an Innovator. How- ever, all of it is about taking a risk. As Steve jobs once said in a very apt manner, we don’t allow our children to do experiments; we don’t allow them to fail in his subject of interest. In India, there is no respect of a person who failed once, well in case of Silicon Valley such person assumed more valued. If we take the e x - ample of Harish Hande, Har- ish Hande experienced the importance of innovative thinking while he was pursu- ing doctorate at Boston Uni- versity in the USA. He got a chance to visit the Domini- can Republic once. It was there when he understood the relationship between poverty and darkness for the first time. After that, his heart belonged there and he decided to contribute his en- tire life in producing afford- able energy sources for poor and needy people. After that he started spend- ing sometime in the villages of Sri Lanka to understand the needs and struggles of such people. There was no- body who knew English over there. He invented the solar devices, not keeping in mind how it would benefit the city but from the perspective of the village area. People of the village of Sri Lanka told Mr Harish that scarcity of heat or solar light is not our prob- lem. But the problem was of the cluster of elephants that comes in the night and they destroy crops and harts and also kill people many times. Harish made solar operat- ed fencing to protect the lives and wealth of people. Then he came to India to establish SELCO. The main aim of tak- ing this risk of Four Million Dollars was only to identify new uses of energy and im- prove the lives of villages as well as cities by that continu- ous innovation. Harish had the ability to take a high paying job any- where in the world. But he took social responsibility for people who were at the bot- tom of the economic pyra- mid by ignoring the strug- gles. Be it Steve jobs or Har- ish Hande, either if it’s a company or an 0rganization one thing was common in such personalities; they cre- ated their own path. A known path is easy to tread upon but there are very few people who make their own path. Risk-takers have such inten- tions and so should you to adopt a new way of thinking for making your own path. THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY THE AUTHOR ARE PERSONAL E Every unique way of thinking starts with keeping in mind the inclusion of all factors. Only when we start observing things from everyone’s perspective; new and innovative imagination start forming in our minds. Inclusion here means taking into consideration the feelings of people whom we hate or ignore sometimes BHAVESH UPADHYAY The writer is a Businessman and HR Expert

Chennai: The Madras High Court on Friday directed the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) to hold its ‘route marches’ and public meetings in 51 places in Tamil Nadu on November 6, instead of the originally proposed October 2. Justice GK Ilanthiraiyan, who gave the direction to this effect, while entertaining a contempt application from the RSS, also directed the state government and the police to give the permission and inform the court on the same by October 31.

Sharat K Verma New Delhi: In West Bengal, the sword of Enforcement Directo- rate (ED) hangs over more than two dozen MLAs and ministers of Mamata Banerjee gov- ernment. Apart from this, Leader of Opposi- tion in the Assembly Shubhendu Adhikari has said that he is going to give a list of 99 such MLAs to the ED, who have assets dispropor- tionate to their known sources of income. These 25 people are also included in those 99 people. The sword hangs on the current list of 25 legislators be- cause of the Kolkata High Court where a PIL to probe the alleged un- accounted assets of these leaders is pending since 2017. This petition has been filed by Biplab Dev Choudhary . Recent- ly, state government minister Partha Chat- terjee’s establishments were raided, cash was found and he was ar- rested, then Biplab Chaudhary again reached the High Court. While hearing this case, the High Court has also made the ED a party in it. Against this decision of the High Court, three min- isters of the state gov- ernment — Firhad Hakim, Jyotipriya Ma- lik and Arup Roy — have reached the court. They have contested that the ED should not be involved in this case as the Election Com- mission and Income Tax Department have not got any unaccount- ed property from them. However, from the stand of the court, it seems that the ED will be a party in this and the court will give its investigation to the ED. Those whose as- sets are to be investi- gated include Firhad Hakim, Jyotipriya Ma- lik, Malay Ghatak, Bratyavrata Basu etc and the name of BJP MP Arjun Singh is also included in this. He has recently returned to the Trinamool Con- gress. The names of big leaders like Gau- tam Deb, Amit Mitra, Abdur Razak Mollah, Madan Mitra are also included in this.

Mahesh Sharma New Delhi: It is a mil- lion dollar question whether the Election Commission will take the same decision on Shiv Sena as it has done in the case of Lok Jan- shakti Party or will its decisiononShivSenabe entirely different? This question has been aris- ing ever since the Su- preme Court ordered that the Election Com- mission should decide about Shiv Sena. At the same time, it is also be- ing said that the deci- sion of the Supreme Court is a major victory for the Eknath Shinde faction and a huge blow to the Uddhav Thacker- ay faction. It is also sur- prising as to why is there a perception that the decision of the Elec- tion Commission in the Shiv Sena case will go against the Uddhav Thackeray faction? The model of Lok Janshakti Party is in front of the Election Commission. After the death of Ram Vilas Pas- wan, there was a split in the Lok Janshakti Party and five out of the six MPs of the party came together and claimed themselves to be the rep- resentatives of ‘real’ LJP. The Speaker also gave them recognition in the Lok Sabha. The leader of that faction, Pashupati Paras, is a minister in the central government. Later, when the real party’s claim reached the Elec- tion Commission, the commission gave a bal- ancing decision. The commission confiscated the Lok Janshakti Party name and election sym- bol. So, the name of the party of Pashupati Pa- ras faction is Rashtriya Lok Janshakti Party and the name of the party of Chirag Paswan faction is Lok Janshakti Party Ramvilas. So, the commission has a previous prece- dent to take a similar decision in the case of Shiv Sena. Shiv Sena’s name and its ‘arrow- bow’ election symbol should be confiscated and separate names and symbols should be allot- ted to both the groups. But if it has to happen then how will it be a ma- jor victory for the Shin- de faction? A big victory for the Shinde faction will happen when it gets the name and election symbol of Shiv Sena. Only then will it have any advantage in the municipal elections to be held in the next few days. Like LJP, in Shiv Sena too, most of the MPs and MLAs are with the Eknath Shinde fac- tion but the party organ- ization is still with Ud- dhav Thackeray .

He said that what- ever responsibility he gets from the party, he will fulfill it and has assured the High Command of this. Re- garding the election of Congress Presi- dent, Gehlot said, “Gandhi family has always been neutral in this and my work is only to strengthen the Congress. Today the country needs Con- gress to be strong. I welcome Kharge’s nomination. He is a very senior leader.” Gehlot, who denied contesting the presi- dency election, termed Kharge’s deci- sion to contest as a ‘right decision’. “All seniors took the deci- sion to contest Kharge. President election is a friendly match. I have become a proposer of Mall- ikarjun Kharge’s election nomination. I have been a Con- gress loyalist for 50 years and whatever happened is com- pletely against my nature. Position is not important for me, rather I want to give my everything to strengthen the Con- gress. If it was under my control, I would not take any position. Right now the party is in trouble and I don’t know to run in trou- ble. It is very impor- tant to have a strong opposition in the country. Rahul Gan- dhi has set out to strengthen Congress. I am with Rahul Gan- dhi in the campaign to strengthen Con- gress. For me, the de- cision of the high command is every- thing,” he said. Gehlot also said that the Congress never kept him empty handed. “Always some or the other re- sponsibility has been given by the organiza- tion to me. One gets tired even in a politi- cal career of 50 years. I have also apologised to Congress Presi- dent Sonia Gandhi for the developments that took place in Jaipur on Sunday. What happened is un- fortunate,” Gehlot said and expressed full confidence in Congress President Sonia Gandhi and said that whatever de- cision the Gandhi family takes, it will be accepted.

Sources reveal that more than a dozen applications have been received, among which are four retired IAS and 2 journalists. Accord- ing to the Act, the new appointment is done by Governor and the term is either for five year or 65 years of age. The previous BJP government had ap- pointed journalist Ashutosh Sharma as Commissioner and con- tinuing this tradition, the present Congress government appointed journalist Narain Ba- reth as Commissioner. Hence the journalists who have applied for the position, are keeping their fingers crossed. Meanwhile, the file regarding starting pen- sion of retired CIC and Commissioners is also doing the rounds in the government. According to sources, the file has reached up to the Chief Ministerial level for ap- proval. State to get new Information Commissioner soon! Aishwary Pradhan Jaipur: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is on a tour of poll-bound Gu- jarat. However, his visit would have an impact on over half a dozen dis- tricts of neighbouring Rajasthan too. Besides, Modi will cover a dis- tance of 18-km inside Rajasthan to reach Abu Road airstrip before fly- ing to New Delhi. BJP welcomed PM Modi at Abu Road in Sirohi dis- trict bordering Gujarat around 7pm on Friday . Sirohi’s adjoining districts, including Udaipur, Banswara, Dungarpur and Jalore, have a strong Gujarat connection. The main reason for this is that a large population of these districts fre- quents or lives in Guja- rat for education or em- ployment. Moreover, Abu Road where PM Modi will reach this evening has a sizable tribal population. The message of PM’s Guja- rat trip is sure to perco- late to parts of Ra- jasthan too. The subtle message is also a beginning for Ra- jasthan politics which is bound to heat up be- fore it goes to polls next year. This assumes sig- nificance in the light of the recent dramatic de- velopment within the Rajasthan Congress. BJP would surely want to avenge its defeat in the state and win with a huge majority .

Munishwar Nath Bhandari New Delhi (ANI): Amid a protracted crisis in the Con- gress, the supporters of Sachin Pilot gath- ered at the AICC of- fice in the national capital on Friday and demanded that he be elected as the party president or be made the chief minister of Rajasthan. As soon as Ra- jasthan Chief Minis- ter Ashok Gehlot ar- rived at the All India Congress Committee (AICC) office, the sup- porters began raising slogans in favour of Pilot. “We want to see Sachin Pilot as the chief minister of Ra- jasthan or as the na- tional president of Congress,”saidasup- porter of Pilot. “Rahul Gandhi is also young; the future of India is in the hands of the youth. Till the youth is not given a top post, Con- gress will not get power. Pilot knows about problems at the ground level and what the party work- ers go through. We demand he be made the party president,” he added. Gehlot Thursday announced he was pulling out of the Congress presi- dential polls follow- ing the political tur- moil in Rajasthan. Pilot’s supporters wanted to see him as the next Rajasthan CM in the event Ge- hlot shifted to Delhi. The young leader met interim party presi- dent Sonia Gandhi in Delhi Thursday . After the meeting, he said the decision of the Congress chief will be final on who will be at the helm of af- fairs in Rajasthan. Pilot’s supporters raise slogans outside AICC office as Gehlot arrives Modi addresses… During this, Modi bowed his head to the people who attended the program and prom- ised that the ‘debt of this love will be re- turned with interest’. Along with this, Modi also promised to visit Abu Road again. Inter- estingly, as Modi reached the main stage, the crowd pre- sent greeted him by lighting the mobile lights. During this, many senior BJP lead- ers and MLAs includ- ing former Chief Min- ister Vasundhara Raje, BJP State President Satish Poonia, Leader of Opposition in the Assembly Gulabchand Kataria, Union Minis- ter Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, Kailash Chaudhary, MP PP Chaudhary and Jalore MP Devji Bhai Patel were also present. FROM P1… Gehlot to… G-23 leaders also agreed after talks with Gehlot and all these people became propos- ers for Mallikarjun Kharge. As a result, now G-23 has not field- ed any candidate and thus now Kharge is al- most certain to become the Congress Presi- dent. Notably, Kharge is Gehlot’s old ‘ally’. Meanwhile, as far as the question of legisla- ture party meeting to elect a new chief min- ister is concerned, now that issue has also got stuck because no CLP meeting is taking place for the next few days. Thus the work of choosing the new Chief Minister has also been postponed. Meanwhile, a source related to Delhi gave indication that if Ge- hlot continues to be the CM, then Pilot could be made PCC Chief a new post, that of Organiza- tion General Secretary for the States of North- ern India, may be cre- ated. But the million dollar question is: Whether Pilot will agree to this new ‘of- fer’, which has already been rejected by him, more than once. The Gehlot camp has adopt- ed the strategy of ‘Wait and Watch’ as Gehlot returned to Jaipur on Friday evening after a three-day stay in Delhi following which sever- al ministers and MLAs rushed to CMR to meet Gehlot. Gehlot, focus- sing back on Rajasthan, has resumed his tours to observe Rural Olym- pics will tour Bikan- er, Sri Ganganagar Ha- numangarh today.

Six months of exclusive breastfeed- ing in the first year of life is recommended. Breast milk contains long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids that help in the normal growth and development of the baby. These fatty acids also help the immature brain to develop.

One egg contains approximately 6 grams of protein. Daily consumption of eggs enhances muscle gain and weight gain in underweight children.

Potatoes are a rich source of carbohydrates, which can help in putting on weight. Children who are underweight tend to get tired soon. Starchy foods like potatoes increase the muscle glycogen stores, which is the main source of energy for most activities. How to Get Your Kids to Eat Healthy? Make your child eat small, frequent and nutrient-dense meals. Eating just deep-fried foods and sugar-laden foods can cause unhealthy weight gain. Give your little one food contain- ing protein and healthy fats to promote healthy weight gain. Introduce new foods slowly and one at a time. If kids are not eating plain vegetables or fruits, pair them with hummus, avocado dip or nut butter. Often kids do not enjoy plain milk. Add some fruits or dark chocolate to the milk to enhance its taste. Parents can replace water and add milk to soups or use milk to knead the dough. How do we Increase Weight in Kids? Weight gain in kids can be difficult because they do not eat everything that is put on their plate. With a little planning and the addition of ener- gy-dense healthy foods to their diet, weight gain is achievable. Parents need to first find out the child’s weight status category: Less than the 5th per- centile: underweight 5th percentile to less than 85th percentile: normal or healthy weight 85th to less than 95th percentile: overweight Above 95th percen- tile: obese With the help of this “Height and Weight Cal- culator for Children”, parents can easily calcu- late the ideal height and weight of the children according to their gender and age.
