Mahadevappa did not disrespect Nalwadi: Ex-mayor
Mysuru: Former mayor Purushottam on Tuesday stated that while highlighting the contribution of Mysuru ruler , Mysuru district minister HC Mahadevappa didn't disrespect Mysuru Maharaja Nalwadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "I urge the public to acknowledge Tipu's role in the history of the Krishnarajasagara (KRS) Dam. In 1911, when Nalwadi performed the groundbreaking ceremony for the dam, he discovered a stone laid by Tipu. Rather than discarding it, Nalwadi respectfully installed it at the dam's entrance gate, where it remains today as a testament to historical continuity," he said. Speaking to reporters, he stated that Tipu planned the dam's construction but was unable to execute it due to historical constraints. Nalwadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar fulfilled this vision by overseeing the dam's completion, he explained. "The Dalit community holds Nalwadi in the highest esteem for his progressive policies that uplifted marginalised groups. Mahadevappa did not speak against the Maharaja or the Mysuru royal family," he asserted, adding that the minister's statement was not to appeal to Muslim voters. Noted writer KS Bhagavan stated Mahadevappa only stated that Tipu laid the foundation stone for the but did not construct it.

PM Modis Muslim Sister Prepares Om, Lord Ganesha Rakhis, Awaits PMO Invitation
On the occasion of Raksha Bandhan, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Muslim sister Qamar Mohsin Sheikh has once again prepared rakhis for him. Born in Karachi, Pakistan, Qamar Mohsin Sheikh has been tying rakhi to PM Modi for the last 30 years. This year, she has handcrafted four rakhis featuring Om and Lord Ganesha designs, and is now waiting for an invitation from the Prime Minister's Office (PMO). Qamar Mohsin Sheikh says she makes the rakhis herself every year and selects the one she likes the most to tie on Modi's wrist. She recalls knowing Modi since the time he was a worker in the RSS. Once, when Modi asked her how she was doing and addressed her as 'sister,' she began tying him rakhi from that moment onward. Kamar shares that she once prayed for Modi to become the Chief Minister of Gujarat, and he smiled in response. When that wish came true, she later wished for him to become the Prime Minister of India and bring glory to the country. She says her sisterly prayers have now come true for the third time. Though she couldn't travel to Delhi last year, she hopes to receive an invitation from the PMO this year and celebrate Raksha Bandhan by tying rakhi to the Prime Minister. Who Is Qamar Mohsin Sheikh? Born into a Muslim family in Karachi, Sheikh moved to Ahmedabad after marrying Mohsin Sheikh in 1981. She first met Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his time as a member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). She recalled their first meeting in 1990 at the airport, where she was accompanied by Dr. Swaroop Singh, then the Governor of Gujarat. When Is Rakhi/Raksha Bandhan 2025? Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated on Saturday, August 9, 2025. According to the Hindu lunar calendar, Rakhi falls on the Purnima (Full Moon Day) of the Shravan month.

Row over biased panchayati raj order: UP CM orders withdrawal, suspends official
An order issued by the panchayati raj department that linked the removal of illegal encroachments to specific castes and religious communities has given fresh ammunition to the opposition that alleged that such orders exposed the mentality of the Uttar Pradesh government. UP CM Yogi Adityanath has expressed his displeasure over the controversial order issued on August 2. (HT file) However, the state government has suspended the joint director of the panchayati raj department following the directives of CM Yogi Adityanath who has also expressed his displeasure over the controversial order. He termed the directive 'completely discriminatory and unacceptable' and ordered its immediate withdrawal. He also described the incident as a serious administrative lapse. The order, which directed officials to clear encroachments from Gram Sabha land by persons belonging to a particular caste (Yadav) and religion (Muslim) across the state's 57,691 village panchayats, was issued by the panchayati raj office in Ballia on August 2. As the letter went viral on Monday (August 4) evening, a political uproar started following which joint director, panchayati raj, SN Singh was suspended late on Monday night. CM Yogi Adityanath clearly said this type of language and thinking is not only against the policies of the government, but also creates division in the society, which will not be tolerated under any circumstances. He said action against encroachments should be taken with complete fairness, facts and law, and not on the basis of caste or religion. He has also warned the officials not to let such mistakes be repeated. Meanwhile, attacking the government on the issue, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav alleged: 'It just shows the mentality of the government. This is the ruling party's strategy. First, they made their leader give a statement against (SP MP from Kairana) Iqra Hasan, then they made their people give a statement against Dimple Yadav (SP MP from Mainpuri), but no action was taken against them. However, PDA people are aware and know that their aim is to uproot the BJP.' 'We all know who is the biggest mafia in the state. You all remember what was said about Iqra Hasan by a BJP leader. They talk about encroachment, but most of the ponds and lakes were illegally acquired by BJP people in the state. One can go through the registry of properties in Ayodhya and Varanasi, everything will be clear,' Yadav alleged while talking to the press at Janeshwar Mishra park on Tuesday. Later, the SP chief in a post X said his party will go to the court against such orders, 'Action should be taken against whatever is illegal because illegal is illegal, then why are people of a particular caste or religion being targeted. The judiciary should take immediate cognizance as this is an unconstitutional act. We will go to court against it. The more PDA is harassed, the more PDA unity will strengthen,' he wrote on his X account. Echoing similar sentiments, Uttar Pradesh Congress chief Ajay Rai said, 'It is now clear what is in the mind of this government and its officers. Orders based on caste or religion are not acceptable at any cost. The officers who are hand in gloves with the BJP should be severely punished.'
