Tejashwi further said the example Kunwar Singh set at the age of 80 for the country and his people is inspiring. He said that he did not get a full five-year term to work. The last time he came to power, and he became the deputy CM, the first thing they talked about was providing jobs. People questioned, "How will it happen?" There were vacant positions, budget provisions were there, yet jobs were not given. "In one day, we provided five lakh jobs at the Gandhi Maidan," Tejashwi said.
The SVM convener further pointed out that RJD chief Lalu Prasad established Veer Kunwar Singh University in Ara, while Tejashwi provided the Veer Kunwar Singh Bridge connecting Shahabad with Saran. "We raised the slogan "Jai Tejashwi" because people across the country want Tejashwi to be given a chance to lead the state," Shailendra said.
Shailendra presided over the event, while the welcome speech was delivered by the chairman of the organising committee Dr Sunil Kumar Singh. Dr Singh said that wherever Kshatriyas are, the govt is formed by them, and this time the Kshatriyas are with Tejashwi Yadav. During the event, all the guests garlanded the portrait of Babu Veer Kunwar Singh.

'Tired of way men treat Republican women': Marjorie Taylor Greene says she's losing faith in GOP; accuses party of abandoning key issues
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, a prominent far-right Republican and close ally of US President Donald Trump , publicly voiced frustration with her own party, saying it is drifting away from policies that support everyday Americans and mistreating women within its ranks. She said she feels increasingly disconnected from the Republican Party as she continues to clash with both party leadership and Trump on several issues. In a recent interview with The Daily Mail, the Georgia congresswoman shared her views. Greene had previously condemned Israel's war in Gaza, calling it a 'genocide,' opposed Trump's executive order on artificial intelligence, and demanded the release of the Epstein Files. 'I don't know if the Republican Party is leaving me, or if I'm kind of not relating to the Republican Party as much anymore,' Greene said, as quoted by The Independent. 'I don't know which one it is.' Greene said the party is turning away from priorities that matter to regular Americans. She criticised the lack of action on cutting foreign aid, the diminished use of the department of government efficiency to reduce federal spending, and the lack of progress on inflation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Is this legal?

I really don't,' she said. 'But I'll tell you one thing, the course that it's on, I don't want to have anything to do with it, and I just don't care anymore.' Greene has consistently opposed US military aid to Ukraine during the Russia–Ukraine conflict, a policy that remains in place. She has also criticised the administration's involvement in the Iran–Israel conflict. She noted that since Elon Musk , described as the de facto head of DOGE, left the White House, the administration appears to have shifted focus. While DOGE staffers remain in place throughout the government, reports suggest they now have less authority. Greene also expressed concern that the Republican Party is pushing away younger voters by continuing to back unpopular policies. She added that conservative women may also feel alienated by the way they are treated within the party. 'I think there's other women in our party that are really sick and tired of the way men treat Republican women,' Greene said. She cited the case of Representative Elise Stefanik of New York. Trump had nominated Stefanik for US ambassador to the UN, but later withdrew the nomination to preserve the Republican majority in the House. Former national security adviser Mike Waltz was nominated instead. Greene said Stefanik got 'screwed' by Speaker Mike Johnson and others in the White House, though she made clear she did not blame the president. Despite her dissatisfaction, Greene did not say she plans to leave the Republican Party.

2020 Kuttanad flood relief: Explain how families were identified, Kerala HC tells govt
Kochi: High court has sought details from the state govt regarding the methodology adopted for identifying families affected by the 2020 flood at Kuttanad in Alappuzha district. The court was considering a petition by Jaisappan Mathai of Kuttanad concerning relief for families affected by the 2020 flood and the delay on the part of the state in disbursing aid to 3,232 families. The petition stated that on Dec 10, 2021, the disaster management department additional chief secretary had issued an order directing that Rs 3,800 each be given to 43,538 families, but some of them had not received the amount even after two years. In May 2025, a bench of Chief Justice Nitin Jamdar and Justice Basant Balaji directed the state govt to place on record the govt order, notification, or circular issued pursuant to the decision for disbursing the amount, clearly laying down the methodology for identifying beneficiaries and distributing the compensation. Although the Alappuzha collector submitted an affidavit, it lacked particulars such as the govt order, notification, circular, or any defined methodology. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Use an AI Writing Tool That Actually Understands Your Voice Grammarly Install Now Undo It merely stated that the families affected by the flood were identified through the village officer concerned and the panchayat-level disaster management committee. The court observed that the allocation of Rs 3,800 to 43,538 families involves a significant amount of public funds, and a robust and transparent system for identifying the affected families is essential. The task cannot be left solely to the village officer and the panchayat-level committee without proper guidance or oversight. Accordingly, HC directed the collector to file a detailed affidavit in the matter. Subsequently, on July 31, the state govt sought additional time to file the affidavit, and the court directed that the affidavit be placed on record by Aug 14.

Farmers stage protest demanding compensation for land acquired for setting up Bharathiar University in Coimbatore
The protest was led by CPM state secretary P Shanmugam and Coimbatore district secretary C Padmanabhan. Photo by P Sreedhar COIMBATORE: COIMBATORE: Members of the Tamil Nadu Vivasayigal Sangam and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) staged a sit-in protest in front of the Coimbatore collectorate on Monday, demanding a compensation for agricultural land acquired by the state govt for establishing Bharathiar University. Land was acquired for the purpose from 1978 to 1984. The protest was led by CPM state secretary P Shanmugam and Coimbatore district secretary C Padmanabhan. Several affected farmers participated in the protest. According to the protesters, around 916 acres of land were acquired from nearly 600 farmers at the foothills of Marudhamalai to set up the university. However, the farmers alleged that they were not paid appropriate compensation and filed a petition in court. Subsequently, the court directed the govt to pay Rs 160 crore as compensation, but the order was not implemented. In 2022, the Madras high court enhanced the compensation to Rs 400 crore, including interest. Nearly three years later, the farmers are yet to receive the payment. The day-long protest concluded in the evening after the govt assured the farmers that a high-level meeting would be convened to discuss the issue. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Addressing the gathering before calling off the protest, Shanmugam said minister for public works, highways and minor ports EV Velu contacted him over the phone and conveyed that chief minister M K Stalin had discussed the matter.
