SONIA GANDHI & RAHUL GANDHI GET ED NOTICES IN NATIONAL HERALD CASE

CONGRESS CRIES

‘VENDETTA POLITICS’  Rahul Gandhi has been summoned today  Sonia Gandhi has been summoned on June 8 Moni Sharma New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday summoned Congress president Sonia Gandhi and her MP son Rahul Gandhi for questioning in a money laundering case linked to the National Herald newspaper, officials said.

The case was registered recently to probe alleged financial irregularities in the party-promoted Young Indian that owns the National Herald newspaper. Statements of other Congress leaders, who were then office bearers of the National Herald and Associated Journals Limited (AJL), have also been recorded by the ED. The case only involved the conversion of debt into equity to pay off dues like salaries, the Congress said, accusing the government of trying to deflect attention from “real issues” like inflation.

RaGa SEEKS MORE TIME FROM ED Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has sought more time to appear before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) after the agency summoned him in the National Herald money laundering case on June 2, said sources.

Jaipur: CM Ashok Gehlot fired salvos on central govt on Wednesday over notice issued by ED to Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi.

On Wednesday, Gehlot tweeted, “During freedom struggle, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru started National Herald & Qaumi Awaaz newspapers, which have contributed a lot to the freedom struggle. After independence, Gandhi &

Nehru started Navjeevan newspaper. NDA govt is taking retaliatory action against Sonia and Rahul by attacking efforts made to carry forward the legacy of these newspapers. The giving of notice by ED in case already going on in court is culmination of suppression of Opposition being done by Modi govt by misusing the power. Such notices cannot stop Sonia & Rahul from raising voice of common man against the dictatorial govt.”

‘KASHMIRI PANDITS PROTESTING, BJP BUSY CELEBRATING 8 YEARS’

Kashmiri Pandits are protesting but the BJP is busy celebrating 8 years of Modi govt. Security personnel and civilians are dying in Kashmir and this is the truth and it is not a film, he said.

“In Kashmir, 15 security personnel have been martyred and 18 civilians have been killed in the last five months. Yesterday too a teacher was murdered,” he said in a tweet in Hindi.

Cabinet allows procurement by co-op through GeM portal: Thakur New Delhi: The Union Cabinet, chaired by PM Modi on Wednesday approved a proposal to expand the mandate of Government eMarketplace (GeM) by allowing procurement by cooperatives. Move will help over 8.54 lakh registered cooperatives and their 27 crore members as they would get products at competitive rates from GeM portal. These cooperatives will be benefitted from the decision, said I&B Minister Anurag Thakur.

By targeting National Herald every now and then, BJP has disgraced and disrespected freedom fighters as their [BJP’s] predecessors didn’t play a role in India’s Freedom Movement. National Herald newspaper was started in 1942. At that time British tried to suppress it. Today, Modi govt is using the ED to do the same. A money laundering case has been registered when there is no money laundering. Move reeks of a vendetta, pettiness, fear, and political cheapness.

ON ED NOTICE TO SONIA-RAHUL, NADDA SAYS ‘CRIMINALS DENY’ THEIR CRIMES

their crimes. “Have you ever seen a criminal say I’m (a) criminal? They will, (Sonia and Rahul) of course, deny it.” he further said agency’s documents were “proof” of Gandhis’ crimes.

“If chargesheet is filed, you would approach court to get it quashed,” Nadda said.

‘MODI HAI TO MUMKIN HAI…’ UNTOLD STORIES OF PM MODI - PART 7

MODI SAINIK EK

‘MODIJI GOT ME A LIFT ON A SCOOTER SO THAT I COULD MAKE IT TO SABHA IN TIME’ Modiji organised a sabha in my LS constituency. Modiji rode on a scooter the entire day to gauge the pulse of the people and the response to our campaign. My car was stuck in jam as people were gushing in for the sabha and hovering of Atalji’s helicopter could be heard signaling his arrival. Modiji got me a lift on a scooter too that took me through the narrow lanes so that I could make it to sabha in time.

‘I GREW EMOTIONALLY ATTACHED WITH MODIJI FOR HIS BROTHERLY PROTECTION’ The first karyakarta meeting was to be held in Gurgaon. I grew emotionally attached with Modiji for his brotherly protection, guidance and support. In his speech, Modiji said, “One vote has made all the difference and it is this- it is the vote of Congress’s Rao Indrajeet.

Now Sudha Yadav will fight for this seat.

She is a Veerangana and does not have anything. We have to help her fight and win.”

PRIME MINISTER NARENDRA MODI

Narendra Modi - The Quintessential Magic Maker

The Magic of Modi’s `11 in the election Yajna

S

udha Yadav is a Kargil war widow and has been a Lok Sabha MP from Haryana.

Modi’s decision to field Kargil war widows as candidates gave this teacher a chance to contest elections. Modi was Prabhari at Haryana office at that time. The story is about the immense support and guidance that she received from Modiji for the big contest. The incident as it happened: Modiji had once received Rs 11 from his mother in blessing, which he in turn, a few years down the line, handed over to Sudha Yadav as a blessing to initiate her election campaign and asked the karyakartas to contrib-

YOU READ PART-6 ON MAY 27, 2022

ute whatever they had on them at that moment to fund her campaign. Within half an hour, there were Rs 7.5 lakh on the blanket donated as a campaign fund for Sudha and of course, Sudha Yadav won that election.

There were 18 Kargil war widows in the area I resided in and it was Modiji’s vision to field someone from the family of martyrs for that election. I was a teacher by profession and was clueless about the ways of politics.

All of a sudden I started receiving calls from BJP members encouraging me to contest elections but I continued to refuse as neither my family nor I ever imagined myself cut out for such a role.

Also, I had no political background. It was then that Chaudhary Ishwar Singhji, who was then the State President of Kisan Morcha, said to me “I will give you a number. Speak to the person. You will find your way.” It happened to be Narendrabhai’s number. Let me reiterate, I was so politically naive, I did not even know what it meant to be Rashtriye Sanghathan Mahamantri of BJP. Nevertheless, I called up the landline number. Narendra bhai used to reside at Harishchandra Mathur Lane at that time. He answered the call himself and I introduced myself. I said that the mem-

bers of the BJP are persuading me to contest the upcoming elections and since I am befuddled I have been given your number. What he said to me completely changed my perspective. He said “Sudhaji a great change has come in your life with the martyrdom of your husband. Now you must come out to serve society. Just say yes and the party will help you fight the elections.” Although I wasn’t completely convinced whether really politics was my cup of tea, I called up Narendra bhai the next day and confirmed to him my intention to contest the elections. But again I shared my misgivings with him and said, “Nar-

endra bhai, a few party workers have told me that a lot of money is required to run an election campaign whereas I belong to the service class.

What I have received as exgratia payment, I wish to save for my children. My daughter is 7 while my son is only three and a half. So this money I cannot spend.” Narendra bhai replied “Sudhaji just say yes. Sangathan will help you fight the elections.

These are all myths about elections that you must not harbour. Have faith in Narendra bhai and say yes to serving the society.”

This was the first telephonic conversation I had with Narendra bhai and I was yet

to meet him in person. My first meeting with some of the senior leaders of the Sangh Parivar happened a couple of days later at Harishchandra Mathur Lane which was the residence of an MP. It had two rooms at the back and an open area in the front.

I was awe-stricken to find Modiji, such a well-known political figure, sitting on a mattress on the floor, with books strewn all over the place and a telephone next to him. One had only to take off one’s slippers at the entrance and sit on the floor to hold a discussion with him. Even in my wildest dreams, I could not have imagined Narendra bhai to be someone so simple and rooted

04

to the ground. This was my initiation into the humble world of Samaj Sevaks, people who work wholeheartedly for society and the country.

The process of debunking myths about contesting elections had started for me.

I was told that I would be fighting against a candidate belonging to the royal family and had ruled over the area from 1952 to 1998. So it was natural that winning the election was going to be no walk in the park for me, neither would my candidature be accepted easily. Seniors advised me to spread a word among my family, friends and relatives that I would be fighting the elections and seek their support. They also advised me to meet Atalji, Advaniji, Kushabhau Thakre and Sushmaji.

The first karyakarta meeting was to be held at Agarwal Dharamshala, Gurgaon. We were fighting as a coalition so a joint meeting with Indian National Lokdal and BJP karyakartas was organized.

The hall was chock-full of workers of the two parties.

Modiji was present for the meeting along with the most renowned names of the BJP. What transpired that day touched me to the core and I grew emotionally attached with Modiji for his brotherly protection, guidance and support. In his speech, Modiji said, “One vote has made all the difference and it is this- it is the vote of Congress’s Rao Indrajeet. Now Sudha Yadav will fight for this seat. She is a Veerangana and does not have anything. We have to help her fight and win.”

Modiji spread out a sheet on the floor and placed a steel Kalash in the centre. He then charged the hall with these words “I am a pracharak and the Sangh takes care of me and my expenses. Several years ago when I visited my mother, she blessed me with Rs 11 and told me that this money will come in handy someday. I feel it was for this day that my mother gave me that money. I offer Rs 11 for my sister Sudha Yadav’s fight in this election and I request all the karyakartas to sacrifice in this yajna everything they have on them right now, except for the fare to go back home.” I was mesmerized, in a state of transcendence, as this entire experience was so new to me. Within half an hour, at Modiji’s behest, an amount of Rs 7.5 lakh had been collected as funds for my election campaign.

This is how my political journey began. After this Modiji organised a sabha in my Lok Sabha constituency.

It was a magnificent sabha in Rewari and Atalji was to attend it as well. Modiji rode on a scooter the entire day to gauge the pulse of the people and the response to our campaign. My car was stuck in jam as people were gushing in for the sabha and the hovering of Atalji’s helicopter could be heard signaling his arrival. Modiji got me a lift on a scooter too that took me through the narrow lanes so that I could make it to the sabha in time. After the event was over, Atalji had a brief interaction with me before leaving. He congratulated me for inching closer to a win. At last, when I met Modiji at the party office later in the day, he said “Look, you are winning this election. Keep your calm and continue to campaign for a couple of days more.

You will make it.” And indeed, I won that election!

Kolkata (ANI): Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury on Wednesday demanded a thorough inquiry into the death of singer KK after a live concert in Kolkata.

“All said and done.

I demand a thorough inquiry behind the sad demise of singer KK by a competent authority. The prevailing ambience of the Nazrul Mancha during his performance reveals many unsavoury questions including critical mismanagement of the said platform which might have triggered his death,” said Chowdhury in a Twitter post.

Singer Krishnakumar Kunnath, better known as KK, passed away on Tuesday evening. The singer fell ill while performing at an event in Kolkata and was brought to the CMRI hospital,

where he was declared dead.

Staff members of Nazrul Manch where the concert was held said people were more than the capacity wherein the crowd was jumping from the boundary and some broke the gates.

“KK’s show was at 7 pm. He was sweating and took water in between. He left only after completing the programme.

Our seat capacity was 2,482 but the crowd was more than double the capacity. The crowd broke the gate,” Chandan Maity, Nazrul Mancha staff told media.

leaders say that Basavaraj Bommai has been made the Chief Minister of the state as Yeddiurappa’s choice. So now there is no need to listen to him.

Either he can keep a chief minister of his choice or get his son made a minister. It is said that Yeddyurappa is sacrificing his son only to keep ‘alive’ CM ‘nominated’ bi him.

But it won’t last long.

Yeddiurappa will really take some big re-

sponsibility in the party for his son before the next assembly elections. If his son is not made a minister, then he would like to interfere more in the distribution of assembly tickets so that more and more people can get tickets. Yediyurappa is laying his cards by sensing the situation of a hung assembly and therefore, the assembly elections next year are going to be interesting.

Our CM is Gandhian,

but some BJP-RSS leaders spoil the atmosphere: Mohan Prakash

Over 75 MLAs attended the first day with 10 independent MLAs Yogesh Sharma and Dimple Sharma Jaipur: In the ‘Action Taken’ Camp of Congress, senior leader Mohan Prakash gave a huge scolding to party’s senior leaders. Prakash said that if Congress organizes any demonstration, then only a few leaders attend it and public could not join these demos held on many issues including inflation.

Prakash said, “CM, you should stop caring for the child in womb while doing away with one in the lap. We are not worry about the basic vote bank of Congress and not giving them participation in power. In their place, we are giving participation to such people who are not vote banks. It is like leaving the adopted child and worrying about the one who is in womb. This will not be in the interest of the party. Our CM is Gandhian, but some BJPRSS leaders spoil the atmosphere. It is necessary to give strength to local leaders.”

Mohan Prakash suggested to strengthen the Congress organization and prepare the workers for the competition by staying on the ground.

To keep the morale of the workers heightened, everyone will have to take along and give a message of unity to the public. To compete with the BJP on the ground we need to take the work of the our government to the ground.

Pant met CM Gehlot last week and after that, on Wednesday, he was given the NOC to head to Delhi, the 3 year appointment order will also not curtail Pant’s move

Rajendra Chhabra Jaipur: IAS Sudhansh Pant will head to Delhi as the state government has given him NOC to head for deputation to the central government. With this, the suspense and speculation over Pant heading to Delhi, or not, has also come to an end.

Now he will serve as Secretary in the Central government.

It is believed that owing to Pant’s connect and image in the central government, he

may get a call soon.

Pant, a 1991 batch IAS, has five years of service still left and till then he may continue to serve in the Centre. When in March 2020, during the first wave of covid, Pant was called to Centre on special deputation, he continued to serve in Delhi till December 2021, after he was given an extension on deputation. This was so because from 2014 to 2019, Pant had served in the Union Health Ministry and therefore, he was called specially.

Sudhansh Pant

At that time itself, Pant had requested the state government to allow him to continue serving in the Centre, but instead of giving him NOC, in January 2021, he was called back

to Rajasthan, given a promotion to the post of additional chief secretary and handed the reins of PHED. Pant was assured that after June 2022, once the drinking water problem comes to an end, he would be given the NOC to head to Delhi, but the situation developed so fast that suddenly in April 2022, he was transferred from PHED to Pollution Control Board as its Chairman.

Not only that, ten days back he was given

a three year appointment on the same post.

Government’s order shocked the entire bureaucracy and it was thought that Pant would not be able to go to Delhi for the next three years.

Sources reveal that Sudhansh Pant met Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot last week and after that, on Wednesday, he was given the NOC to head to Delhi. It is said that the three year appointment order will also not curtail Pant’s move to Delhi.

Jaipur: Days ahead of the RS polls on 4 seats in Raj, BSP’s state unit has written a letter to Governor Kalraj Mishra and assembly speaker CP Joshi demanding that the 6 MLAs who had defected to Congress should be barred from participating in polls. BSP state prez Bhagwan Singh Baba said in the letter that six MLAs who won on BSP symbol in the 2018- assembly elections unconstitutionally merged with the Congress and a case is going on against them in SC under the Anti-Defection Act, therefore these should be stopped from voting in the Rajya Sabha elections.

NOMINATIONS OF 5 VALID, REJECTED OF INDEPENDENT Jaipur: Scrutiny of 14 nomination papers received from 6 candidates was completed on Wednesday in Vidhan Sabha.

The incomplete nomination of independent candidate Manoj K Joshi was canceled.

13 nomination papers of remaining 5 candidates were correct. Returning Officer Dr. Jogaram said, nomination of BJP’s Ghanshyam Tiwari, BJP-backed Subhash Chandra, and Congress’s Randeep Surjewala, Mukul Wasnik and Pramod K Tiwari were correct.

The final decision will be taken at the level of AICC. It should not be assumed that what has been said will apply. Before implementing the big decisions of the Congress Chintan Shivir, the approval of the High Command will still be awaited.

We are unable to repeat the govt in Raj. Our govt has been repeated in Delhi, it has been repeated in Assam, it has been repeated in Andhra. It is not that the Congress government does not repeat.

Therefore, the reasons need to be discussed.

NOT SO SHY ANITA HADA

B

ollywood has more than its share of films with lead actors in double roles with Ram aur Shyam, Seeta aur Geeta and Chaalbaaz, being my personal favourites. Sharmilee was not in this league as an entertainer but it had its moments with it’s moral ambiguity and in-depth characterisation of the lead actors not to mention the music.

The title track O’meri Sharmilee is super cute and buoyant. Khiltey hain gul yahaan and Megha chaye aandhi raat are both totally hummable even today. Aaj madhosh hua jaaye rey … it’s all about love and togetherness.

Rakhee is actually breathtakingly beautiful in both personnas as the wild and outgoing Kanchan and the demure and traditional Kamini, though I personally in looks preferred the traditional sweet Rakhee. She does modernise herself for her beau Shashi but her core remains traditional.

I liked the negative Rakhee as Kamini much better with her spontaneity, naughtiness, perkiness, selfishness and flirtatious ways much more than Kanchan who is ‘demure as dumb’, painfully shy. And unlike the usual Bollywood twin dramas,

THIS THROWBACK THURSDAY, CITY FIRST TAKES YOU ON A RIDE OF ROMANCE AND THRILLING MYSTERY WITH DOUBLE ROLES, SPIES, LOVE, ROMANCE, HEARTBREAK, MODERNITY VS TRADITIONAL, EAST VS WEST, FLAWED HUMANS AND MUCH MORE WITH SHARMILEE, THE RAKHEE DOUBLE ROLE STARRER WITH THE DASHING SHASHI KAPOOR IN LEAD WITH A WONDERFUL TRACK BY SD BURMAN!

the ‘bad’ twin does not have a change of heart in the end, in fact Kanchan becomes actually villainous towards the end- her’s and the movie’s. There is a stark contrast between the two with the self- sacrificing Kamini and the selfish Kanchan.

Shashi Kapoor will steal your heart as a dashing, handsome, charming Army officer (in uniform most of the time) who falls for one sister to be married off to her twin though I do wish he had been kinder to the innocent Kamini; he is brutal in heartbreak and actually we see a nervous breakdown. But the characters are all too human, be it Shatrughan, Rakhee as Kanchan or Shashi.

The movie has a moral lesson of traditional versus modern Kanchan the party girl falls in the wrong company and how her life deteriorates.

The strength of Kamini who with her moral compass and compassion finds happiness.

The movie does have some unnecessary twists and underworld drama but then what is Bollywood without these?

erfumes are a blend of fragrant oils, aroma compounds and fixatives which produce a pleasant fragrance. Egyptians gave perfume to the world as it originated from their culture. They used fragrances in almost all their rituals and daily use. These scents were popularly used as status symbols.

Then Persians considered it a sign of political status and soon it reached Greeks and Romans including various other corners of the world.

HOW PERFUME IS MADE? Initially, natural oils and extracts were used to create multiple scented ointments.

Currently, the process has become far more complex and involves chemicals for different aromas. The plant and flower extracts are combined with either ethanol or ethanol and water as per the required concentration.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS COLLECTION

The ingredients such as plant and animal substances are brought to the manufacturing unit. Then aromatic chemicals used in synthetic perfumes are created in the laboratory by perfume chemists.

EXTRACTION

Scent oils are extracted from plant substances by several methods such as steam distillation, solvent extraction, enfleurage, maceration and expression.

BLENDING

The process of blending takes place after the collection of these perfume oils. The formed scent is then mixed with alcohol. It contains 10% to 20% perfume oils dissolved in alcohol and a trace of water. It may take as many as 800 different ingredients to develop the special formula for a perfume.

Then finally a good perfume is aged for several months or even years after blending.

Then the expert often referred to as a nose will test the perfume to ensure that the correct scent has been achieved.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF PERFUMES Perfumes come in a wide variety of fragrances. Here are some of the basic categories of scents.

FLORAL

Floral fragrances draw inspiration from different sweet-smelling flowers such as roses, jasmine, orange blossoms and gardenias, etc. They have either a single or a blend of scents from different flowers.

CITRUS

As the name goes citrus perfumes contain the strong essence of citrus flowers and fruits. They are mostly derived from lime, lemon, tangerine and mandarin.

WOODY

This type of fragrance is a blend of wood and moss. It is commonly referred to as chypre fragrances. It uses oakmoss, citrus and patchouli to create ear thy a ro m a s of soothing perf u m e .

There is a classical appeal associated with it because such scents are used by corporate workers.

ORIENTAL

Oriental perfumes are made by mixing earthy and musky scents.

Amber, musk and animalistic base scents are the ingredients of these perfumes.

FRUITY

This is one of the most popular categories of fragrances.

Fruity smells are pleasing and famous due to their sweetness given by the mixture of spicy and fruity notes. These aromas include fragrances such as apple, berry, mango and peach, etc.

GREEN

These are opted for by people when they go out for casual meetings in their daily

routine. These green fragrances are great options as they offer sporty scents of fresh leaves and newly mown grass. These perfumes are mild and can be worn on occasions.

OCEANIC

These are relatively unique with synthetic scents with smells similar to that of mountain air etc. These are refreshing and soothing by nature. They can be used while going for professional meetings.

SPICY

These scents have the popular fragrances of spices found in the kitchen. Spices such as cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves and pepper have alluring scents. They are popular for casual occasions and brunches.
