scorpio90 Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Narendra Modi shows 'mirror' to Farooq Abdullah on secularism http://zeenews.india.com/news/general-elections-2014/narendra-modi-shows-mirror-to-farooq-abdullah-on-secularism_927950.html Reacting strongly to Farooq Abdullah's remark that “those who vote for Modi should drown in the sea”, Narendra Modi tore into the National Conference chief and asked him to look into the mirror before commenting on the secular culture of the country. “India's secularism is not because that word has been added in the Constitution. For thousands of years, India has believed in the philosophy of Sarva Path Sambhav [all Dharmas (truths) are equal to or harmonious with each other]. India is the only country which says there is only one truth, seekers express it in different ways,” Modi said in a video released by his office on Monday. “India is the only country which says Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah, Sarve Santu Nir-Aamayaah, Sarve Bhadraanni Pashyantu, Maa Kashcid-Duhkha-Bhaag-Bhavet (May all become happy, may all be free from illness. May all see what is auspicious, may no one suffer). India never says Hindus be happy, India thinks about everybody,” he added. “India has never attacked any thought, any society in the world, with a sword. Expansionism is not in the blood of India. Neither us nor anybody should teach such a country about secularism. Those people who talked about secularism...I want to ask Farooq sahab...the power of India's secularism is so strong and it is in our veins. It is not in the Constitution, it is in our views. It is a country which prays to the nature, to water, the society lives with the ideal of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (The world is my family).” “And in such society such language is used. Even if a statement comes from someone (apparently referring to Giriraj Singh), is India's secularism so useless that it will get split by one statement? I want to say to Farooq Abdullah...the biggest injury to the thousands of years of secularism in India has been done in Kashmir and that too because of the politics of your father, because of your politics and because of your son's politics. In this country, it is only in Kashmir from where Pandits have been thrown out on the basis of religion. The Sufi tradition of Kashmir has been turned into communal for personal political gains by you, your son.” “And you talk about drowning people who vote for Modi in the sea? Your father, you, your son have done the sin of give communal colour to the politics of Kashmir in the eyes of the world. Kashmir was always all-inclusive society, you tainted that tradition. It doesn’t suit you that you give such statements and if anyone needs to get drowned then look at your face in the mirror; put your father's face in front of the mirror and then ask this question. With what face can the people who threw out Kashmiri Pandits give discourse on secularism to the country? It doesn’t suit them.” “We are silent but that doesn’t mean that they can hurt the secular tradition of the country whenever they feel like. Even today, because of our culture, because of our blood and not because of politics, because of patriotism, we say that the path of Sarva Path Sambhav is ideal for India. Politics of development not politics of vote bank is ideal for India.” “This is our commitment, Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas. We will move forward with this mantra. People like Farooq Abdullah sahab cannot derail the vehicle,” Modi said. “The country will never waver from its lofty ideals,” he added.

hhunaeh Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Modi's words on manual scavenging tells you about his views on upward mobility in hindu society, and the picture says modi is a great person who rose up from being a sweeper to future PM :cantstop: “I do not believe that they have been doing this job just to sustain their livelihood. Had this been so, they would not have continued with this type of job generation after gene-ration…. At some point of time, somebody must have got the enlightenment that it is their (Valmikis’) duty to work for the happiness of the entire society and the Gods; that they have to do this job bestowed upon them by Gods; and that this job of cleaning up should continue as an internal spiritual activity for centuries. This should have continued generation after generation. It is impossible to believe that their ancestors did not have the choice of adopting any other work or business.”
diga Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 No special favours from Modi: Adani With political parties using him as punching bag in the highly charged election campaign, Adani Group head Gautam Adani on Sunday said he got no special favours from Narendra Modi and his group has since 1993 acquired only barren waste land for infrastructure projects. The $ 8.7 billion ports-to-energy Adani Group began acquiring land near the coastal town of Mundra in Gujarat way back in 1993 and only one-third of a total landbank of 15,946 acres was acquired when Mr. Modi was Chief Minister, he said. “Not a single acre has been taken from any farmer... We went to Kutch when no one looked there and acquired only barren and desert-like land that was not suitable for agriculture,†Mr. Adani told PTI in an interview. Adani used the land to build India’s biggest port, which loaded and unloaded a record 100 million tonnes of cargo in the year that ended on March 31, and the nation’s biggest coal power station in the private sector, he said, adding that his group did not buy land at cheap rates to sell it to make profits. “When we began acquiring land at Mundra in 1993, (Chief Minister) Chimanbhai Patel charged us 10 paisa per square metre. [bJP government led by] Keshubhai Patel (in 1995) charged us Re. 1 per sq mt and Shankersinh Vaghela [-led Rashtriya Janata Party] in 1996-07, charged Rs. 1.5 per sq mt. Under Mr. Modi, we got some 5,000 acre of land at an average of Rs. 15 per sq mt rate,†he said. Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi has in his political meetings used alleged largesse to industrialists like Mr. Adani to attack Mr. Modi. At a recent rally, Mr. Gandhi claimed that Mr. Modi had given Mr. Adani land for Re. 1, the price of a toffee. AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal too has alleged a nexus between Mr. Modi and industrialists like Mr. Adani and Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani. Mr. Adani, 51, said he does not want to get involved in the political slugfest but facts are different than what is being portrayed. “Modi became Chief Minister of Gujarat in 2001 and we got first land under him in 2006 to set up a special economic zone (SEZ) under UPA government’s SEZ policy. We wanted 10,000 acres but got only 5,000 acres. Now people are comparing the price we paid 20 years back for barren, non-agriculture land with the market rate of a land that has been developed with all facilities like road and electricity,†he said. He said Mr. Modi, who is BJP’s prime ministerial candidate, is helping industries through policy. “Modi government has not flouted any rule or regulation to help anyone. No special favours have been granted to Adani.†Adani Group, he said, has worked with state governments in Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh, Odisha and Haryana for acquiring land for projects. A school dropout, Mr. Adani moved to Mumbai at the age of 16 to try his luck. He initially dabbled in diamond trade before returning to his home state Gujarat to run a small plastic factory owned by his brother. Eventually, he set up his own import and export business, Adani Enterprises in 1988. Few years later he borrowed heavily and invested in Mundra’s vast swathes of marshy wasteland to build India’s largest port. In Mundra, Mr. Adani also built India’s largest privately-owned power plant, producing 4,620 MW of power, and a 64-km railway connecting the port to railway network. Mr. Adani has also gone abroad, including buying mines, ports, and railways in Australia and Indonesia. Mr. Adani plans to double his group’s size by 2020. Mundra port capacity will be doubled to 200 million tonnes; electricity generation capacity will be raised from 8,620 MW to 20,000 MW and the group will mine 200 million tonnes of coal.

Sachin=GOD Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Shabnam Hashmi attacked in Rae Bareli The social Activist was attacked allegedly by BJP workers while she and her associates were distributing leaflets against the development claims of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Mod Social Activist Shabnam Hashmi was on Monday attacked in Rae Bareli allegedly by BJP workers while she and her associates were distributing leaflets against the development claims of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi. Ms. Hashmi claimed that she and her associate Pratap Singh Negi were threatened and manhandled by a group of 24-30 BJP supporters when they had stopped to distribute leaflets brought out by JAVAB- Janvadi Vichar Andolan Bharat- a national platform of activists. The forum has chosen 100 constituencies in the country where they are campaigning to explode the "myths of the Gujarat model." The incident took place barely 100 metres away from the police station Gadaganj. While nobody was hurt, Ms. Hashmi said the miscreants snatched away leaflets from their hands and threatened to set ablaze their vehicle. "They used highly abusive and sexist language, with threats of rape. This is desperation. They (BJP) don't know what to do. They have built up a big hype (of the Gujarat Model) but don't know how to live up to it so they resort to such acts," she said. Ms. Hashmi said she submitted a complaint to the Gadaganj police they did not lodge an FIR. The police said Ms. Hashmi was not attacked and she was only engaged in a small argument with locals while distributing leaflets in a busy market area. "There was a small misunderstanding. She was distributing leaflets and a crowd gathered at the spot. The people thought she was campaigning for a particular party. Some people who had different ideologies resented and asked her to leave. At this an argument broke out. But we quickly sent a flying squad and resolved the matter," said the police officer. He said he did not lodge an FIR as Ms. Hashmi had withdrawn her complaint. Ms. Hashmi dismissed the claim. "I have not withdrawn the application," she said. http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/shabnam-hashmi-attacked-in-rae-bareli/article5956647.ece

scorpio90 Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Because during every financial year, Mamta is going to approach Central gov for a bailout package. Money and her electoral prospects in next assembly elections are tied together. So she will have to go with the party in power.
