BJP and Shiv Sena hit out at Uddhav Thackeray, spare Raj Thackeray
Mumbai: Maharashtra BJP's former president and Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule on Saturday criticised Shiv Sena UBT chief Uddhav Thackeray, saying that it is clear from his speech that his real agenda is not 'M' for 'Marathi,' but 'M' for 'Municipal Corporation'. 'His love for Marathi is nothing but a political stunt that surfaces when elections are near. The public has now recognised this hypocrisy,' he remarked in his reaction after Uddhav Thackeray and Raj Thackeray attended a joint rally to celebrate the state government's move to withdraw two government resolutions on the introduction of Hindi along with Marathi and English. Incidentally, Bawankule did not target Raj Thackeray in his criticism. He said that under the guise of Marathi pride, Uddhav Thackeray sang a lament in Worli about the loss of power. 'Why did he accept the report mandating Hindi from the first grade in 2022 while he was Chief Minister? He never answered it,' he said. Bawankule said that the Marathi language is not just an identity that stands on emotions, but it must be reflected in policies. 'When you (Uddhav Thackeray) were in power in Mumbai, you sidelined the Marathi people. Now, to regain power, you are showing fake love for Marathi again,' he claimed. He alleged that it is clear from Uddhav Thackeray's speech that his real agenda is not 'M' for 'Marathi,' but 'M' for 'Municipal Corporation', 'His love for Marathi is nothing but a political stunt that surfaces when elections are near. The public has now recognised this hypocrisy,' said Bawankule. Further, the Mumbai BJP president and Cultural Affairs Minister Ashish Shelar claimed that the handshake between Uddhav Thackeray and Raj Thackeray is nothing but an attempt to win the family "battle" because they fear losing the election. In his post on X, Shelar claimed: 'This is not for the language but a public appeal for the elections! With the municipal elections approaching, the panicked Uddhav Sena, scared of the BJP, now remembers family ties. The program in Worli today was a family bonding event to publicly appeal to the brother they had thrown out of the house. There was no love for the language or anything like that... and it doesn't even matter to them! This is a desperate struggle to gain power in the municipality and to loot Mumbai again for the sake of power.' On the other hand, the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena also only targeted Uddhav Thackeray, terming him a detractor and a hollow figurehead while showering praise on Raj Thackeray, terming him wise and a champion of Marathi. In a post on X, Shiv Sena made a comparison between the leadership of Uddhav and Raj Thackeray. 'One enlightened, the other provocative. One right, the other left. One younger yet grand, the other grand yet younger. One a lover of Marathi, the other a lover of power. One wields a whip in words, the other harbours vengeance in speech. One a champion of Marathi, the other a detractor. One wise, the other foolish. One carries the legacy of Marathi, and the other fills their pockets. One stands tall with independent pride, the other just a hollow figurehead.'

‘Our culture doesn't encourage us to stand out': Here's why many from China struggle to find jobs in UK
Finding a job in the United Kingdom (UK) has become increasingly difficult for international graduates. Chinese students face additional hurdles due to cultural and language barriers, according to a report by the South China Morning Post (SCMP). Harley Hu, 25, completed her master's degree in education last year. She told SCMP she sent out 'maybe 200 or 300 CVs' before finding full-time work. Even now, her job does not sponsor visas, and her post-study visa will expire in 2026. 'If I can't sort it out, I'll have to prepare to go back to China,' Hu said. She added: 'In China, we're taught that degrees are everything. But once you're overseas, you realise employers care a lot more about experience and no one really tells us that.' The UK graduate job market is highly competitive, with youth unemployment at 14.3 per cent. Chinese graduates are especially affected. Although Chinese nationals account for about 25 per cent of international students in the UK, they receive only 10 per cent of graduate visas. Indian students, by contrast, receive over 40 per cent. One reason, SCMP reports, is that many Chinese students plan to return home after graduating. But others give up after struggling to find work. Most Chinese students enrol in one-year master's programmes, leaving little time to adapt. 'Just when you start adapting to life here, it's already time to hunt for work, and you're not ready,' Hu said. Jack Chen, a humanities graduate from the University of York, told SCMP he has applied for over 400 jobs since finishing his degree. He only received two part-time offers, one at a retail store, and another at a small business. 'Our culture doesn't encourage us to stand out,' Chen said. 'Indian students are way more proactive. They'll call companies directly. That sounds crazy to me.' He added that many Chinese students are unfamiliar with UK job platforms like LinkedIn. 'They (Indians) know how to use it and have polished CVs. Meanwhile, we come from a system where that stuff doesn't even exist.' Emily Lu, a London-based headhunter who supports Chinese clients, told SCMP: 'Chinese graduates hesitate to reach out to employers, don't use LinkedIn effectively, and miss out on networking opportunities.' Lu said the Chinese education system is partly responsible. 'They're smart and capable, but they need direction. At home, teachers guide them every step of the way. Here, that's not how things work.' A 2024 study by the UK's Higher Education Policy Institute (HEPI), cited by SCMP, found that Chinese students in Britain often struggle with spoken English and digital tools. On average, they scored 6.1 in the IELTS speaking test lower than students from most other countries. The report also noted that many Chinese students stick to small social groups and avoid university career services. Only 21 per cent had used such services, and just 2 per cent said the help was useful in finding work. The number of Chinese graduates returning home after study is rising from 73 per cent in 2019 to 84 per cent in 2023. Jessica Deng, a graduate from the University of Southampton, told SCMP she finally found a job in early years education after applying to over 300 positions. 'In a country where even locals are struggling to find jobs, it's hard to expect international students to have equal opportunities,' she said. Deng said visa uncertainty puts off many employers. 'If you're on a short-term post-study work visa, it's not so simple,' she said. The HEPI report urged universities to do more to help Chinese students adapt, including by offering better career advice and opportunities to build cross-cultural networks. Some students, it said, feel they are treated more as 'revenue sources' than as full members of the campus community.

Takht Patna Sahib declares Sukhbir Badal ‘tankhaiya': Accused of ignoring summons; role in religious row
File photo NEW DELHI: Takht Sri Patna Sahib, one of the five main Sikh religious seats, has declared Shiromani Akali Dal president Sukhbir Singh Badal a 'tankhaiya'. The term refers to someone found guilty of religious wrongdoing. The decision was announced by Jathedar and head granthi Giani Baldev Singh in Patna on Saturday. "Sukhbir Singh Badal is declared 'tankhaiya' for being found guilty of ignoring the orders of the 'Panj Pyare Singh Sahibs' of Takht Sri Patna Sahib," the directive said. According to Takht Patna Sahib's directive, Badal was a conspirator in the recent conflict involving different Sikh religious authorities. He was summoned three times but did not appear. The directive stated that his absence clearly pointed to his involvement in the controversy. The dispute began on May 21, when the Akal Takht barred Takht Patna Sahib Jathedar Giani Baldev Singh and another granthi from performing their religious duties. Takht Patna Sahib responded by declaring the Akal Takht Jathedar and Takht Damdama Sahib Jathedar 'tankhaiya', and also summoned Badal for his alleged role in the matter.

He said it was beyond the jurisdiction of Takht Patna Sahib and could create confusion within the Sikh community. Dhami stressed that while Takht Patna Sahib is highly respected, only the Akal Takht has the authority to decide on issues concerning the wider Sikh community. He warned that undermining the Akal Takht could cause serious damage to Sikh traditions and unity. He called for resolution through mutual dialogue and said the Sikh community's energy should be directed towards collective growth and the promotion of Sikh values, not internal disputes. Badal was earlier declared 'tankhaiya' by the Akal Takht in Amritsar in August last year, and later in December was given religious punishment for mistakes linked to the Akali Dal government's rule in Punjab from 2007 to 2017.
