Congress demands admission for those who passed supplementary exams

Time of India20-07-2025
Vadodara: The Vadodara unit of the Congress party on Saturday demanded that MS University give admission to students who have passed the Class 12 commerce stream supplementary exams.
After the supplementary exam results were declared, GCAS provided a last chance for admission, until July 21. However, the link to fill admission forms for the first year of the Bachelor of Commerce course at MSU has been closed.
"The purpose of the supplementary exam is to ensure a student's year is not wasted and he or she gets the chance to study with regular students in the same year. If such students do not get admission, why is the supplementary examination conducted?" asked Vadodara Congress president Rutvij Joshi.
"University authorities are denying admission to students on the grounds that they do not have enough seats, which is a blatant lie. When Dr Anil Kane was vice-chancellor, 8,800 students got admission, later 9,000 students were given admission, and during Covid-19, 10,000 students were admitted," Congress spokesman Kapil Joshi said.
"The BJP-ruled state govt, instead of capping the student intake, should create more posts and recruit teachers so that students do not suffer," he said.
"If that cannot be done, the state govt should bear the cost of fees that students are forced to pay at private universities," Joshi said, adding that the centralized admission process through GCAS is helping private universities, which have been excluded from the system.

Rahul Gandhi Claims Arun Jaitley Sent To Threaten Him; Rohan Jaitley Refute, Says My father Died Before Farm Law

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday alleged that the BJP had once sent the late Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley to "threaten" him for opposing the farm laws introduced by the Narendra Modi government. While addressing the Annual Legal Conclave 2025, the Congress leader recalled his response, saying, 'I looked at him and said, 'I don't think you have any idea who you are talking to.'' "I remember when I was fighting the farm laws, Arun Jaitley was sent to me to threaten me. He told me, 'If you carry on opposing the government, fighting the farm laws, we will have to act against you. 'I looked at him and said 'I don't think you have an idea who you are talking to,'" Rahul Gandhi said. Responding to Congress leaders' claim that the late Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley threatened him over the farm laws, DDCA chief Rohan Jaitley shared a post on X and reminded the Congress leader that his father died before the laws were even introduced. "Rahul Gandhi now claims my late father, Arun Jaitley, threatened him over the farm laws. Let me remind him that my father passed away in 2019. The farm laws were introduced in 2020. More importantly, it was not in my father's nature to threaten anyone over an opposing view. He was a staunch democrat and always believed in building consensus," Jaitley said.

'If Pakistan Commits Another Sin...': PM Modi's 'BrahMos' Warning At Varanasi Rally

PM Modi Dedicates Op Sindoor's Success to Lord Mahadev, Slams Cong-SP for Defending Terrorists Prime Minister Narendra Modi has dedicated the success of Operation Sindoor, India's precision retaliation against Pakistan-based terror hubs, to Lord Mahadev, in a powerful declaration of justice and vengeance. Speaking in Varanasi, his first visit after the attack, Modi recalled the Pahalgam massacre, where 26 civilians, including women and children, were brutally killed by The Resistance Front, linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba. Modi said he had taken a vow to avenge the spilled "sindoor" of India's daughters, and Operation Sindoor, followed by Operation Mahadev, was that sacred retribution. Modi also launched a blistering attack on the Congress and Samajwadi Party, accusing them of sympathising with Pakistan and questioning the bravery of India's security forces. Addressing a public rally, PM Modi took a dig at Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav by saying, 'Pakistan is crying, and so is Congress and SP. They are hurt by the death of terrorists in Operation Sindoor.'#operationsindoor, #mahadev, #modiinvaranasi, #terrorattack, #trf, #lashkaretaiba, #pahalgamattack, #indianarmy, #modispeech, #kashmirterror, #modivsterror, #retaliationstrike, #modiinuttarpradesh, #modiinpahalgam, #sindoorrevenge, #modiblessing, #kashmirsurgicalstrike, #pakistancries, #congressappeasement, #modivscongress, #rahulgandhi, #akhileshyadav, #samajwadiparty, #india, #breakingnews, #trending, #bharat, #toi, #toibharat, #indianews 5.0K views | 1 hour ago

Remove Ads New Delhi: Congress MP Sukhdeo Bhagat criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his silence on the 25 per cent tariff imposed by US President Donald Trump on questioned whether the BJP government has become so vulnerable that discussions regarding strategic initiatives or oil procurement are subject to interference from US President Trump."Trump has created a state of confusion. Neither the government nor PM Modi made any statement in the House or took responsibility... Have we become so weak that even discussing strategies prompts interference from Trump?... The saddest part is when we discuss the trade balance, especially since we have about 130 billion dollars worth of trade with the US. Our position is strong on this, so there is no reason for America to dominate us... PM Modi should come forward and clarify the entire situation regarding India's decision... We are a sovereign country, but such interference contradicts the dignity of the nation," he on Wednesday made a shocking statement on his social media platform Truth Social after the announcement of 25 per cent tariffs against India and threatened an additional "penalty" for importing Russian oil."I don't care what India does with Russia. They can take their dead economies down together, for all I care. We have done very little business with India; their tariffs are too high, among the highest in the world," Trump later signed a fresh executive order imposing revised tariffs for 70 countries, including imposed on India's neighbouring countries are less than India's 25 per cent, except for Myanmar at 40 per cent. The new tariffs for Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Japan, and Sri Lanka are 19%, 15%, 20%, 19%, 15%, and 20%, new tariffs, outlined in a sweeping order signed on Friday (IST), will come into effect from 12:01 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time on August the government told the Parliament on Thursday that it is examining the impact of the recent events and will take all necessary steps to safeguard the national interest.
