HC interim stay on closure of Jan Aushadi centres welcome: LoP
Speaking at a press conference, he said the High Court has issued an interim stay order on the closure of Jan Aushadhi centres. 'The BJP had fought against this decision. The government closed Jan Aushadhi centres to favour private medical pharmacies. The government, which bowed to the private lobby, has now faced a setback. The Health and Medical Education Minister must now understand what people need and work accordingly'.
'Government hospitals are required to provide 260-270 medicines, but such a quantity is not available. Medicines are available at discounted rates at Jan Aushadhi centres. Recently, during a visit to Hassan hospital, I found only one cardiologist. In an emergency related to heart conditions, they administer an injection and send patients to Bengaluru.
Closing Jan Aushadhi centres in such a situation would cause significant problems', he said.
'Terrorists are being facilitated even in jails. The Home Department is completely defunct. The state government must immediately deport Bangladeshi and Pakistani citizens. A special task force should be formed for this purpose. Vote-bank politics should not be played here.
Steps must be taken to monitor prisoners' movements, and the use of mobile phones in jails should be prevented', he demanded.
'Rambhapuri Jagadguru has expressed his opinion. When lakhs of devotees visit, he expresses their sentiments. That's what Swamiji has conveyed.
The government is announcing guarantees every day, but there's no money to transport rice, leading to a lorry strike. Giving guarantees while keeping all bills pending is of no use.
Even though free bus services are provided, schoolchildren have to walk. Swamiji has said that people should be given a self-reliant life', he noted.
'B.K. Hariprasad has insulted the oppressed communities. In the BJP, we don't announce presidents based on hereditary succession.
Elections are not held in Congress, but the BJP follows democracy', he said.

West Bengal police launches helpline for migrant workers facing harassment in other States
Amidst reports of targeting of migrant workers from West Bengal in BJP-ruled States, the West Bengal police have started a helpline number for workers to seek assistance. Responding to the development, Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari shared his email-id and added that any citizen of the State who is 'harassed by Mamata's police' may reach out to him. The West Bengal police in a social media post stated that they are receiving 'reports from various sources that many people from Bengal, who have gone to work in other states, are facing various problems and instances of harassment'. 'If any citizen from Bengal working in another state faces any kind of trouble, we appeal to them or their family members to immediately inform their local police station. You may also contact the district control room,' the police said in the post. The West Bengal police in the social media post said that the helpline number is 9147727666 which will be available only on WhatsApp and the people can send a message there with the necessary information, including your name and address. 'Each piece of information will be verified, and we will coordinate with the concerned state authorities to take the necessary action,' the police said. According to West Bengal Chief Minister about 1000 migrants from the State were detained in other States. There have been reports of detention of migrant workers in BJP ruled states on allegations of being Bangladeshi nationals. Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari called the post by West Bengal police politically motivated to mislead Bengalis residing in various parts of India for work, so that they become alarmed and confused. 'Across the Indian subcontinent, Indian Bengalis and Hindu refugees are not facing any problems. However, Hindu Bengalis living in West Bengal are frequently harassed by the police. I appeal to them—and to Indian Hindus from other states, regardless of the language they speak, who are residing in any district of West Bengal for work—if you have been harassed by the police. (Mamata's police), please feel free to inform me with details via email,' the BJP leader posted on social media. Mr. Adhikari urged any aware citizen of West Bengal, 'if you come across information about Rohingya Muslims or illegal Bangladeshi Muslim infiltrators residing in any district of West Bengal—please share the details with me at this email address My email ID is: adhikarisuvenduwb1@ '. 'I will ensure the information reaches the appropriate authorities,' the LOP said. Mr. Adhikari on Saturday claimed that there are 1.25 crore illegal immigrants in the voters' list of West Bengal, and all of them will be sent back following a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the rolls.

With events across state, SP renewsresolve to protect quota, Constitution
Lucknow: To renew its "resolve to protect the reservation system enshrined in Indian Constitution", the Samajwadi Party functionaries on Saturday assembled in large numbers across the state to observe July 26 as the Samvidhan Mansthambh Divas. Party workers attended special events organised to outline the ways and means that the BJP government has devised to subvert the right to reservation and constitutional frameworks to undermine the rights of the oppressed and exploited sections of the society. The party leaders across the state cited outsourcing of government jobs as a major onslaught on right to reservation. They explained in detail to people how the BJP has devised the "Not Found Suitable" option to deny jobs to PDA community members in various universities, colleges and institutes. They also cited how the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls for Bihar elections was another covert attempt of the BJP to change the Constitutional practices in use since Independence. Party's national president Akhilesh Yadav mooted the idea of observing July 26 as the Samvidhan Mansthambh Divas and had called upon the party functionaries to hold events to inform the masses how their right to reservation was being curtailed by the present BJP government by impeding constitutional provisions. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Remember Him?

He said Samvidhan Mansthambh Divas encapsulates the spirit of PDA Prakashsthamb which is about lighting up the path for the Pichhde (backward classes) Dalits and Alpsankhyaks (minorities) to reclaims their rights as enshrined in the Constitution and which they were being deprived of by the BJP in a systematic manner. SP MP from Azamgarh Dharmendra Yadav, who was the chief guest of the Samvidhan Mansthambh Divas event held in Jaunpur, called upon the PDA community to come forward to help save the Constitution and protect reservation. In Mainpuri, SP MLA from Karhal Tej Pratap Yadav chaired the event and urged the "oppressed sections of the society" to rise and voice their concerns by dislodging the BJP from the government. Senior party functionary Rajpal Kashyap, who chaired one of the most largely attended event of the day held in Shahjahanpur, underlined the evolution of PDA since the run-up to the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. He said the PDA needs to stay together in the days to come and take on the BJP and its attempt to deprive the neglected lot its due. In Lucknow, former MLC Dr Madhu Gupta, MLA Arman Khan and district president Faqir Siddiqui addressed the gathering and underlined the need to voice concerns against BJP's attempts to subvert constitutional traditions.
