amil Nadu has
decided not to
implement the
10 percent quo-
ta for the Eco-
nomically Weaker Section.
Chief Minister MK Stalin
views it as arbitrary and
exclusionary
. The DMK
leader called the Supreme
Court’s order upholding
the Central government’s
decision on the EWS quota
asasetbackforthecentury-
old struggle for social jus-
tice. Stalin has a strong
reason to oppose the ver-
dict as the interest of 82
percent of the population
comprising Scheduled
Castes, Scheduled Tribes
and Other Backward Class-
es is at stake. Implementa-
tionof theSupremeCourt’s
verdict could cut into the
existing quota in the state.
Boycotted by the main
Opposition, the AIADMK
and the BJP, an all-legisla-
tive party meeting called
by Stalin there was agree-
ment on rejecting the 103rd
Constitutional Amend-
ment which provides for
reservation for the EWS as
it “created caste discrimi-
nation” among the poor.
Tamil Nadu is not the
only state to be bothered by
thereservationissue.Inan-
other part of the country,
Jharkhand, the Jharkhand
MuktiMorchagovernment
of Chief Minister Hemant
Soren, a Bill was passed at
a special session of the As-
sembly to raise caste-based
reservation to 77 percent.
The Jharkhand Reserva-
tion of Vacancies in Posts
andServices(Amendment)
Bill, 2022 raised total reser-
vations from 60 percent to
77 percent.
Consequently
, the quota
of Scheduled Castes has
goneupfrom10percentto12
percent, of OBCs has in-
creasedfrom14percentto27
percent and Scheduled
Tribes from 28 percent to 30
percent. This decision will
besubjecttotheCentralgov-
ernment and the Supreme
Court’sapproval.Preparing
for 2024, Mr Soren?

SPIRITUAL SPEAK
For whatever things were written
before were written for our learning, that we
through the patience and comfort of the
Scriptures might have hope.
—Bible
Narendra Modi @narendramodi
Shri RL Kashyap was a multifaceted
personality and great scholar. He was
blessed with rich mathematical and
scientific knowledge. He was very
proud of India’s cultural roots and
distinguished himself in Vedic studies.
Pained by his demise. Condolences to his family. Om Shanti.
Dharmendra Pradhan @dpradhanbjp
The indecent remarks made by Mamta
didi’s minister on His Excellency
Rashtrapati ji shows his feudal
mindset. There is evidence of her
tribal and anti-women character. In a
democracy like India, there is no place
for this kind of inferiority complex and malice towards
women of colour, race and women.
TOP TWEETS
he outcome of the mid
term elections in the Unit-
ed States took almost eve-
ry one in America and
large parts of the world by
surprise. The Republicans,
i.e former President
Trump took victory for
granted. The incumbent
President, Joe Biden was
more or less written off. To
some extent the powerful
American media was re-
sponsible for the denigra-
tion of Mr Biden.
The vigorous, intellectu-
ally impressive and untir-
ing campaigning of for-
mer president Barack
Obama did much to put life
into the Democratic Party
.
The other factor that went
against the Republican
Party was the divisive, er-
ratic, irresponsible record
of Mr. Trump’s presidency
.
Apart from the Democrats,
the independent voters
had not forgotten, the un-
presented and violent at-
tack on Capital Hill, mas-
ter minded by the presi-
dent and his dangerous
and anti-national staff in
the White House. The
world watched the insur-
rection on TV and was
aghast. The world’s oldest
and greatest democracy
was being torn apart
by hoodlums. The life of
Vice President Pence
was in grave danger.
He had refused to declare
that the 2018 election had
been stolen.
The impartial voter in
the mid-term elections
made sure that Trump
should be taken care of by
the electoral guillotine.
This mercifully has hap-
pened. A rival has ap-
peared. The incumbent
Republican Governor of
Florida has been re-elect-
ed. He is no admirer of Mr
Trump. He is a dedicated
adversary. He will have
massive support at the Re-
publican Convention in
2024. This has changed the
political scenario of
America. Mr Trump is al-
ready been called a have-
been. A second Trump
presidency would have
been a cataclysm not only
for the United States, but
for the World.
President Biden lacks
charisma, but his politi-
cal carrier began when he
was twenty eight years of
age. He is a decent man
and an upright one. A vis-
it by him to India is over-
due. Humankind is facing
horrendous crises. The
most frightening is the
climate calamity hanging
over the globe. It is large-
ly man made. As the UN
Secretary General said at
the Sher-mal-Sheikh con-
ference, “time is running
out”. Pious resolutions
will not do. Drastic, im-
mediate action must be
taken to save humanity
and the globe. The two are
inseparable. Enough con-
ferences have been held,
endless speeches have
been made, the T.V
screens are working over
time to record the not so
inspiring oratory of a
hundred world leaders.
NO END TO RUSSIAN-
UKRAINIAN WAR
The end of Russian-
Ukrainian war is nowhere
in sight. The number of
child orphans and young
widows increase by the
day
. Has humanity gone on
an endless furlough.

Millions of people are
enthusiastic fans of our
cricketers. Tens of thousands
go to stadiums in Mumbai,
New Delhi, Calcutta, Chennai
and other cities to watch
them play. Test cricketers
have the same popularity as
film stars do. The TV audi-

Our bowlers could not
get a single wicket. The
fielding was dismal. The
T-20 players are payed
huge amounts for playing
in T-20 matches. So are
the commentators. The
BCCI is the second richest
sports organisation in the
World. One of the current
Vice-President’s, I have lit-
tle doubt does not know the
difference between a yorker
and a googly.
The Cricket Board should
meet immediately. Sack
six out of eleven of the
team that let down India at
Adelaide. Unless one is a
Bradman, Walter Hammond
or Tendulkar, none of the
T-20 team players should
be retained who are above
thirty five years of age.

Kashiram Choudhary
Jaipur: The protest
has intensified at the
Jaipur airport over
felling of around 5-dec-
ade-old 594 trees. On
the other hand, the air-
port administration
has now stopped the
entry of people here.
The airport adminis-
tration has stopped the
cutting of trees for the
last two days. But the
way the trees are being
cut here, there has
been anger among the
environmentalists.
The outline of tree cut-
ting was decided by the
airport administration
only last year.
After the privatisa-
tion of Jaipur Airport,
when the Adani Group
took over its opera-
tions, the airport colo-
ny was vacated. Within
3 months of taking over
the operations, all the
houses in the colony
were demolished.
Meanwhile, the ani-
mals and birds living
among the 700 lush
green trees in the colo-
ny had also started
leaving their homes.
Residents of the Air-
port Authority colony
said that until a year
ago, about 200 pea-
cocks used to live
among these trees in
the colony.

Sharat K Verma
New Delhi: Under the
pressure of RLD leader
Jayant Chaudhary, by-
election has been an-
nounced for Khatauli
assembly seat in west-
ern UP. In
fact, on Oc-
tober 11,
theverdict
c a m e
against
B J P
MLA Vikram Saini
from this seat in the Mu-
zaffarnagar riots case
and he was sentenced to
two years jail. But nei-
ther his membership
was terminated nor his
seat was declared va-
cant. On the contrary,
the verdict against SP
leaderAzamKhancame
on 27 October and on 28
October the Speaker of
the Assembly declared
his Rampur seat vacant.
At the same time, Jay-
ant Chaudhary raised
the question as to why
Vikram Saini’s seat is
not being declared va-
cant. Speaker did not
declare Vikram Saini’s
Khatauli seat vacant,
despite his repeated
questions. Then on No-
vember 5, the EC an-
nounced by-elections to
Rampur assembly seat
of UP and the Mainpuri
LS seat vacated due to
death of Mulayam Sin-
gh. After this, the con-
troversy escalated as
Jayant Chaudhary and
other leaders expressed
their Oppn and a day
later Speaker declared
the seat vacant.
Mahesh Sharma
New Delhi: There are
some areas in Uttar
Pradesh, which have
been a stronghold of
the Samajwadi Party
for a long time. Main-
puri is one such region
from where Mulayam
Singh Yadav won the
Lok Sabha elections.
Another similar SP fort
was Azamgarh, which
has now ‘collapsed’.
Akhilesh Yadav won
the Lok Sabha elec-
tions from Azamgarh.
But after becoming an
MLA this year, he re-
signed from his seat.
On that seat, the party
had contested Mulay-
am Singh’s nephew
Dharmendra Yadav,
who was a multiple-
time MP from Badaun,
but he was defeated by
Bhojpuri film actor and
BJP candidate Dinesh
Lal Yadav Nirhua.
However, he lost by a
small margin of eight
thousand votes and it
was largely due to
BSP’s Muslim candi-
date Shah Alam getting
2.66 thousand votes. Yet
a fort of the Mulayam
family has collapsed.
This time, SP names
Dimple Yadav as its
candidate from Main-
puri. This seat is be-
lieved to be more se-
cure than Azamgarh
and yet, the SP is wor-
riedaboutmanythings.

long run is the sense of
compassion, sense of
empathy and ability to
answercriesof citizens,
he said.
“When you have the
ability to hear unheard
voices in your system,
(see)unseenfacesinthe
system and then see
where the balance be-
tween the law and jus-
tice lies then you can
trulyperformyourmis-
sion as a judge,” Justice
Chandrachud said.
Social media has
posed one of the great-
est challenges as there
is real-time reporting
of every little word that
a judge says in court-
roomsand“youarecon-
stantly evaluated as a
judge”, he said.
“There is real-time
reportingof everyword
that a judge says in the
court.Thoseof youwho
are lawyers will be able
to tell your colleagues
that everything said by
a judge during a course
of conversation in the
court does not reflect
either the mind of the
judge or the ultimate
conclusion that the
judge would arrive at,”
the CJI said.
“The process of judg-
ing that goes on in the
courts is dialogic.
There is free flowing
dialogue between law-
yers in the court and
the judges between
themselves in an effort
to unravel the truth,”
he said.
“So, I do believe that
we need to fashion, re-
engineer, find new solu-
tions, retrain, recoup,
rethink our role in try-
ing to understand how
we meet the challenges
of the age we are living
in,” he said.
Sometimes the law and justice do
not necessarily follow the same lin-
ear trajectory. The law can be an
instrument of justice but the law can be an
instrument of oppression as well. We know
how in colonial times the same law, as it
exists in the statute books today, could be
used as an instrument of oppression.

Upcoming decade going to

Bengaluru: UnionFinance
Minister Nirmala Sithara-

Delivering the keynote
address at YourStory’s 13th
Edition ‘ Techsparks’ here,
she also stressed on frugal-
ity and scalability of inno-
vation. “.... technology driv-
en innovators are the ones
we need, who are going to
look at local solutions
which are affordable and
have scaling up probabili-
ties,” Sitharaman said.
She said that unless solu-
tions are cost-effective and
scalable, that typical thing
about India innovation is
not going to be there, and
without these features,
things cannot be achieved
as aspired. Noting that the
coming decade is going to
be a “techade”, and technol-
ogy is what is going to drive
us, the Minister said, “in

to be looking at some funda-
mental things you are going

things using several of
those, which are yet not
available for many of the

‘Economy remains resilient’
New Delhi:Reserve Bank
Governor Shaktikanta
Das on Saturday exuded
confidence that India will
continue to be the fastest-
growing major economy
with a likely growth rate
of 7 per cent in 2022-23 on
the back of strong macro-
economic fundamentals
and financial sector sta-
bility.
Speaking at the HT
Leadership Summit 2022,
Das emphasised that the
country’s economy re-
mains resilient, supported
by the banking and non-
banking sectors.
Das said the entire world
has withstood multiple
shocks. “I call it the triple
shocks of the COVID-19
pandemic, then the war in
Ukraine, and now the fi-
nancial market turmoil.”
The Governor said the
financial market turmoil
is mainly emanating from
the synchronised mone-
tary policy tightening
across the world by central
banks, especially those in
advanced countries, led by
the US Fed, and the spillo-
vers are being felt by the
emerging market econo-
mies, including India.
He further said in this
kind of successive tur-
moil, European Union is
facing a recession situa-
tion, but there are possi-
bilities that it will avoid
that.
The US is holding stable,
but there are other coun-
tries where the growth has
slowed down.
“So far as India is con-
cerned, economy, overall
macroeconomic funda-
mentals, the financial sec-
tor stability, all these as-
pects remain resilient. The
banking sector that is the
financial sector is stable
because of all the param-
eters with regard to bank-
ing or the non-banking
lenders or the other major
financial sector players,”
he said.
The growth numbers
are looking good in the
current context, he noted.
“The IMF has projected
that India will grow by
about 6. 8 per cent in the
current year. And that
puts India among the fast-
est-growing major econo-
mies in the world,” he said.
Das, however, added
that India has a major
challenge with regard to
inflation.
RBI GOVERNOR SAYS
MAJOR
CHALLENGE
Our estimate is India will
this year grow by 7%. IMF
has projected India will grow
by about 6.8% in the current
year which puts India among
the fastest growing major
economies in the world,” the
RBI governor said.
Das said India has a major
challenge with regard to
inflation. Retail inflation in Sept
raised to 7.4% from 7% in Aug
on higher food and energy costs
The Governor also said India
is taking over the presidency
of the G20 at a time which is
perhaps the most challenging
year in modern times.
The trade between the two
countries stands at about USD
175 billion at present.
While 13 member countries
have joined all four subjects
trade, supply chains, clean
economy and fair economy
under IPEF
India has opted out of the
trade pillar as of now. It has
joined the other 3 subjects.
TRADE PILLAR
New Delhi: Terming price
rise as a major challenge,
Reserve Bank Governor
Shaktikanta Das on Satur-
day expressed hope that
inflation print for October
will be lower than 7 per
cent. Retail inflation in
September increased to 7.4
per cent from 7 per cent in
August on higher food and
energy costs. Das attributed
the expected moderation
in inflation in October to
measures taken by both the
government and RBI in the
last 6-7 months. Speak-
ing at the HT Leadership
Summit, Das said there is
no need to change the goal
post for inflation targeting
as higher than 6 per cent
inflation would hurt growth.
The rate-setting Monetary
Policy Committee headed
by the RBI Governor has
been mandated by the gov-
ernment to keep inflation
within 2-6 per cent range.
On the Indian economy, Das
said the macroeconomic
fundamentals remain strong
and growth prospects are
looking good. “We ex-
pect the October number
which will be released on
Monday to be lower than
7 per cent. Inflation is a
matter of concern with
which we are now dealing
and dealing effectively,”
he said.The RBI on its part
increased the interest rates
and the government also
announced several supply
side measures, he added.

ing OBC reservation.
Former Minister Har-

to take up this issue
with Chief Minister
Ashok Gehlot.
Harish Chaudhary
said that despite in-
principle approval of
the Chief Minister and
subsequent approvals
from legal, RPSC and
the Department of Per-
sonnel, it is unfortu-
nate that the rules were
deferred in the cabinet
meeting. “In many
states such as Uttara-
khand, Punjab, and
Madhya Pradesh, rules
have been made for
OBC reservation on
the same lines. Minis-
ters have expressed
their views, but the
Cabinet approval is
necessary. Our de-
mands were never
termed unreasonable
at any level,” said Har-
ish Chaudhary
.

Jaipur: Lok Sabha
Speaker Om Birla on
Saturday said that go-
ing by the experience of
covid pandemic, more
research in the field of
medical sciences is re-
quired.
Birla was speaking at
the convocation pro-
gramme of Mahatma
Gandhi Medical Uni-
versit at Sitapura in
Jaipur.
“Corona has taught
us a lot, seeing the kind
of situation we have
gone through, it is clear
that there is a great
need for research in the
medical field,” he said.
“PM Modi himself
wants that there should
be more progress in
medical science and
there should be more
innovation in India,
that is why the focus is
on the medical sector
after the Corona pan-
demic,” he added.
In the programme,
Birla awarded degrees
to medical and dental
students.
He motivated stu-
dents to face the chal-
lenges.
“The kind of chal-
lenge that came during
the Corona pandemic,
the whole world was
worried but doctors and
other medicos in India
served well this is the
reason why we were
able to fight a pandemic
like Corona,” he said.
Birla said that the
students have earned
the degrees with great
effort and their parents
and teachers have a spe-
cial contribution in
this.
The LS speaker said
that there is a need to
open research centers
in the private medical
sector. He also said that
it is expected that Ra-
jasthan will become the
center of medical tour-
ism.
Om Birla presents degree to students at the Convocation
ceremony of MGUMST in Jaipur. Also seen here are Dr ML
Swarankar, Dr Vikas Swarankar, Dr Sudhir Dadhich and others.

Ahmedabad: Releas-
ing the manifesto for

polls, Rajasthan CM
Ashok Gehlot said that
the party has prepared
this manifesto as per
the people’s choice rath-
er than the committee
that used to be formed
for the work. “As Rahul
Gandhi told us that peo-
ple should be asked
what should be there in
the manifesto, they
have been asked and
over six lakhs people
have come forward for
this,” Gehlot said.
Hitting out at the rul-
ing party in the state
over the Morbi bridge
accident that occurred
recently, CM Gehlot
said that the govern-
ance in the state was
“zero”. “Apart from 8
promises of Rahul Gan-
dhi, some more points
will be included in the
manifesto,” he said.
Gehlot also entrusted
that the party would
win 125 seats in the up-
coming election.
“There is a storm in
Gujarat as well like
Himachal Pradesh.
Congress is forming the
government and the
party’s mission is to
win 125 seats that would
be accomplished,”
Ashok Gehlot added.
The elections will be
held in two phases on
December 1 5. The
counting of votes will
take place on Dec 8. BJP
is in power in state for
last 27 years and is con-
sidered as BJP bastion.
If one can laugh wholeheartedly
once a day with one’s family
and friends, one will have little

Jaipur: Children suf-
fering from deadly dis-
ease like cancer are an
integral part of the so-
ciety. In order to fight
this disease with full
willpower, along with
proper treatment and
care, they equally need
love, caress, social af-
fection and emotional
support. With the ob-
jective of providing
emotional support to
the children suffering
from this disease, a car-
nival will be organised
today at 11.30 a.m. at
Jaipur Chaupati in
Pratapnagar. About 100
children suffering from
cancer will be present
in this program organ-
ized on the eve of Chil-
dren’s Day.
Rajasthan Housing
Board Commissioner
Pawan Arora said that
through this event an
attempt has been made
to give the message that
this disease is not in-
curable. Patron of Can-
cer Care Cell of Bhag-
wan Mahavir Cancer

and Trustee Anila Ko-
thari will also be pre-
sentinthisprogramme.
Arora said that there
will be attractive per-
formances by live

rated in an elegant
manner to welcome the
children. To enable the
children to cherish the
memory of this carni-
val with them for a life-
time, the kids will be
presented mugs with

GADKARI PRAISES DR MANMOHAN SINGH
CONG STILL TREADING THE OLD PATH
RAHUL PUTS
CHAVAN IN AN
UNCOMFORTABLE
POSITION!
When Rahul Gandhi,
heading the ‘Bharat
Jodo Yatra’, reached
Nanded in Maharashtra,
he was received by the
former Chief Minister of
the state, Ashok Chavan,
for whom it was being
widely discussed that he
would be joining the BJP
along with 12 of his sup-
porting MLAs. The names
of senior Congress
leaders Balasaheb Thorat
and Vijay Vadattiwar were
also being mentioned.
Anyway, these specula-
tions were strengthened
when Chavan along with
his 12 supporting MLAs
reached there late during
the trust vote motion
of Shide-Fadnavis. His
meeting with Fadnavis at
a friend’s house during
Ganesh festival was also
in news. Chavan is look-
ing for a suitable platform
to bring his daughter
Sreejaya into active poli-
tics. When Ashok’s father
Yashwant Rao Chavan
wasn’t declared as Maha
CM by Congress, he
reportedly got angry
formed a new party.
So, this time as soon as
Ashok Chavan received
Rahul in Nanded, the
Gandhi scion headed
straight to a Gurudwara
then held an important
meeting of party leaders.
While speaking in that
meeting, Rahul pointed
to Chavan sitting next to
him and said, “Look, he
is sitting here, till recently
there was talk of joining
BJP.” Chavan was left
without words.
Someone should learn from Nitin Gadkari the skill of
‘hooking or pulling’ dangerous bouncer balls coming
towards him on political pitches that bounce uncontrol-
lably. On November 8, at an important event of ‘TIOL’
at the Taj Palace Hotel in New Delhi, in the presence of
several corporate leaders, Gadkari heaped praises on
former Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh. Giving the
‘TIOL Fiscal Heritage’ award for
the year 2022 to former Prime
Minister Dr Singh, Gadkari said
that ‘The economic reforms initi-
ated by the then Finance Minister
Manmohan Singh in 1991 worked
to show India a new direction, the
country will always be grateful
for it.” Gadkari advocated a liberal
economic policy whose benefits
would reach the poor and the
farmers. Gadkari also disclosed that he intended to raise
money from the common man for the construction of
Indian National Highways, for which people would be able
to make monthly payments at an interest rate of 8 percent
per annum. It should be noted that on the previous day,
Gadkari was campaigning for the party in Himachal
Pradesh. But to honour Dr Manmohan Singh, he had
come straight from airport to the venue of the event.
The Congress may have got a new president in the
form of Mallikarjun Kharge, but the functioning looks
the same. In the Delhi civic polls, the responsibility of
distributing tickets has again been given to the same
troupe, which was accused of selling tickets indirectly
in past. The chairmanship of Screening Committee
for polls has been handed over to Avinash Pandey.
Dr. Ajoy Kumar has been made co-incharge of Delhi.
The other two members are Dr KK Jayakumar and Qazi
Mohammad Nizamuddin, ex- MLA from U’khand. It is
this team that becomes active in every election, which
is said to have received the blessings of Alankar Sewai,
an important member of Rahul’s team. Later Jagdish
Tytler’s name was also added. BJP accused Congress of
neglecting Sikhs.
...AND FINALLY
In Bihar’s Gopalganj seat, Lalu Yadav’s party’s candidate Mohan
Gupta had to face defeat at the hands of BJP by just 1,794
votes. In this election, two undeclared friends of BJP i.e. BSP
and Owaisi’s AIMIM played an important role in making BJP win.
At the last moment, BSP fielded Lalu’s brother-in-law i.e. Sadhu
Yadav’s wife Indra Yadav, who single-handedly got 8,008 votes,
as long as Sadhu was with Lalu, he used to handle the responsi-
bility of Gopalganj and still holds some influence there. Owaisi’s
candidate got more than 12 thousand votes, Nitish Kumar did
not even go for the Gopalganj by-election campaign because
Mohan Gupta is a liquor businessman.

CM QUESTIONS
KEJRI’s EXIT
FROM HP POLLS
Ahmedabad: CM Gehlot
has targeted Delhi CM
Arvind Kejriwal ques-
tioned Kejriwal’s deci-
sion to withdraw from
Himachal polls. “What
is the reason. You are
in collusion with BJP.
Kejriwal has withdrawn
his campaign from
Himachal. AAP had
fielded candidates to
break Congress votes.
Kejriwal’s trick has been
exposed. Gujarat people
will never accept such
a person,” CM said in
a press conference.
Gehlot asked media
persons to question
Kejriwal that the drive
was aggressive more in
Himachal than Gujarat.
“Because after winning
Punjab there was a lot
of enthusiasm in AAP.
Their party did a lot of
road shows. Like they
are doing in Gujarat.
Lots of promises were
made, but all of a sud-
den AAP has have made
this a very big point.
Why did it withdraw
completely from
Himachal polls? What
is the reason for this?
Either you have collu-
sion with BJP thus
withdrew its campaign
from Himachal,” he
said, adding BJP ruled
states have decided
that OPS will not be
restored.

SANGH ENSURES HIMACHAL’S
REBELLION DOES NOT REACH GUJARAT
The Sangh had taken command of the Gujarat
elections a year ago, reliable sources related to the
Sangh revealed that after consulting the BJP top, the
Sangh had entrusted
the responsibility of
Gujarat to more than
6,000 of its volunteers,
one in each assem-
bly. More than 40
volunteers are active.
Two main centres of election management have been
set up, one in Ahmedabad and the other in Rajkot
for the Saurashtra region. The BJP High Command
had clearly told its workers to work in coordination
with the Sangh. Perhaps this was the reason that in
the Gujarat elections, the BJP cut off the tickets of its
established leaders on a large scale, but there was no
squabbling anywhere, the Sangh did not allow Gujarat
to become Himachal, the Sangh itself took up the task
of convincing the angry leaders.
Yogesh Sharma
Jaipur: Will Priyanka
Gandhi contest the Lok
Sabha elections in 2024?
According to highly
placed sources, Priyan-
ka may contest Lok
Sabha elections from
Rajasthan, but will she
contest from Tonk-
Sawaimadhopur seat of
Rajasthan? Earlier Pri-
yanka had an offer to
become a Rajya Sabha
candidate from Ra-
jasthan, but she made
up her mind to contest
the Lok Sabha elec-
tions. However, final
decision will be taken
only after discussing
with Gandhi family and
Gehlot.
STADIUM NAMED AFTER PM WOULD HAVE BEEN BUILT ELSEWHERE: CM
Ahmedabad: CM Ashok Gehlot has alleged
that the name of Sardar Patel Stadium
was changed, hinting that PM Narendra
Modi may be behind the name change.
“Modi is the PM of the country. A separate
stadium could have been built in his name.
We have no objection. You would have
kept Sardar Patel’s stadium and a stadium
named after the PM could have been built
anywhere other than Gujarat. How can you
change the name. We have started a cam-
paign in Gujarat. People of Sardar Patel’s
village came to me to say that name has
been changed, it should be corrected,”
Gehlot said before releasing party’s
manifesto in Guj, adding that this type of
tradition is being put by BJP in Guj. “I do
not consider it appropriate in any way.”
Priyanka Gandhi
First India Bureau
Jaipur: Minister Rajen-
dra Gudha, who showed
rebellious attitude
against the State gov-
ernment, has now sof-
tened with the arrival
of Congress’ Bharat
JodoYatrainRajasthan.
Gudha has also denied
the talk of factionalism
in the party
. Gudha said
that he is not afraid of a
ticket, being minister or
a chair.
Gudha had come to
participate in the ongo-
ing Sahastrachandi
Yagya at Devpura Bala-
ji Dham in Sikar. After
attending the Yagya,
Gudha while talking to
the media said that
there is nothing like
Sachin Pilot faction and
Ashok Gehlot faction in
the Congress.
“On December 3, un-
der the leadership of
Rahul Gandhi, all the
leaders of the party will
walk together in the
Bharat Jodo Yatra com-
ing to Rajasthan,” he
said.
Two days ago, Gudha,
while targeting the Ge-
hlot government, had
said that if Sachin Pilot
was not made the Chief
Minister, the party
would win less than 10
seats in the upcoming
assembly elections.
Gudha softens his
stand towards govt
CM’s OPS to spearhead
Congress’s electoral
strategy in future too?
Raj govt engaged
in saving itself,
says Shekhawat
On Dec 3, all will
join Bharat Jodo
Yatra under RaGa’s
leadership, he says
First India Bureau
Jaipur: Highly placed
sources related to Mall-
ikarjun Kharge have
hintedthattheCongress
High Command has tak-
en an important deci-
sion that Gehlot’s OPS
Scheme will be enforced
in all Congress ruled
states. The party has al-
ready made OPS an is-
sue in Gujarat
Himachal Pradesh as
main point of their poll
manifesto on Satur-
day, Gehlot even re-
leased manifesto in
Ahmedabad. In
Himachal too, Priyanka
included OPS in mani-
festo it is believed that
OPS will become a ma-
jorissueinallupcoming
polls. Gehlot is the
‘founder’ of OPS and
thus, this decision of
High Command means
just one thing that the
2023 polls in Raj will be
contested under his
leadership because OPS
will be the main issue
here too. This raises an-
other question: What
will happen to Sachin
Pilot’sdemands? Willis-
sue of disciplinary ac-
tion against Dhariwal-
Mahesh Joshi-Dhar-
mendra Rathore be bur-
ied in the noise of OPS?

Bikaner: Taking a dig
at the Gehlot govt, Un-
ion Minister GS Shek-
hawat on Saturday said
that the Rajasthan gov-
ernment is engaged in
saving itself.
He alleged that the
State Government is
not able to bring the
schemes worth crores
of rupees of the Centre
on the ground.
Shekhawat, who was
on a visit to Bikaner to
attend a programme,
said that the state gov-
ernment is not able to
do any work and minis-
ters are engaged in ex-
posing the government.
“A minister is saying
that if the CM isn’t
changed, then the num-
ber of MLAs of Con-
gress will reduce to
such a small number
after polls that they can
travel together in a For-
tuner vehicle,” he said.

JAIPUR, SUNDAY,
NOVEMBER 13, 2022
lthough the shirt may
appear unassuming
and unimportant, it ac-
tually plays a crucial
role in the history and
culture of women. A
shirt is more than just
a top-of-the-body garment;
women have used shirts to rein-
vent themselves throughout
history. Shirts and blouses
came to represent women’s
freedom and equality, but let’s
face it, we still adore shirts. The
development of shirts closely
parallels the advancement of
women and their social roles.
Early on, women’s shirts only
served the purpose of covering
the upper body
, but men’s shirts
evolved into status and power
emblems. Women’s shirts fell
behind when it comes to fash-
ion for a very long period.
Women’s shirts have
changed over time, moving
away from being only
functional clothing and
toward being more about
style and flair. Women’s
shirts evolved and took
on a more feminine shape with
the addition of finer fabrics
and other aesthetic altera-
tions. The shirt’s focus shifted
from pure functionality to el-
egance and beauty. The gar-
ment started to draw atten-
tion to women’s femininity.
Shorter sleeves and lower
necklines started to high-
light rather than conceal a
woman’s body. The idea
that a woman’s body
should always be hidden
was disproved by this re-
vealing, which gave
women a more sensual and
attractive appearance.
The shirts were once
again at the forefront of
social problems in
the last ten or so
years. A shirt was
used to break
down gender bar-
riers and became a
representation of
even greater equal-
ity
. Men and women
started to find com-
mon ground as the
gender divide started to con-
verge and blur. In the world, the
shirt stood for the strength and
equality of women. Shirts have
always represented particular
decades and times they repre-
sent. They are worn by all. In
their closets, everyone keeps
shirts of various styles and
colors. The shirt is a fantastic
way to show off the wearer.
