Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday hit out at the ruling Congress government in Rajasthan and lashed out at chief minister Ashok Gehlot for his remarks in connection with crimes against women in the state.

Pali, Nov 20: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday hit out at the ruling Congress government in Rajasthan and lashed out at chief minister Ashok Gehlot for his remarks in connection with crimes against women in the state.

He also alleged that the Congress was anti-poor, anti-farmer and anti-women and under Gehlot the state had become number one in crimes against women.

Addressing a public rally in Pali, PM Modi said, "Congress has made Rajasthan number one in crimes against women. The CM says that the complaints filed by the women are fake. Can it ever happen that a woman in our country files a fake case?. The CM should say that a probe is underway, and not that the cases filed are fake. Isn't this an insult to women?"

The Prime Minister highlighted that wherever there is a BJP government, efforts are made to ensure that the schemes of the Central Government are implemented on the ground quicker or the state governments of the BJP add something to it.

"The anti-farmer and anti-poor government of the Congress will never take any initiative in favour of the poor or the farmers," PM Modi said, in his latest attack on the grand old party.

Addressing the rally, the prime minister said that under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi, the BJP-ruled State governments provide Rs 6,000 to farmers additionally from their side.

PM Modi said "...the BJP leaders in Rajasthan too have resolved that after the BJP government is formed, farmrs in the state will get Rs 6000 more."

Lashing out at the Congress and its 'Ghamandia' (arrogant) INDIA bloc alliance over remarks against 'Sanatan Dharma', the PM said, "This is not the first time that they have insulted Sanatan Dharma. The people of this country know what they have said".

He alleged that Dalits are being "targeted" under the "protection" of the Congress party.

"You see what kind of language they are using against the Dalits and the women," PM Modi asked the crowd, largely comprising of women.

"Ever since the law giving reservation to women 'Narishakti Vandan Act' was passed, they have started a campaign against women. The leaders of the arrogant alliance have made very objectionable comments about our mothers and sisters," PM Modi said.

Referring to Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's remarks in the Bihar Assembly on birth control, the PM said, "He is the Chief Minister of that State. He used such crude language against a former Chief Minister of the State belonging to the Dalit community. A responsible citizen can't even use such a language in a conversation".
PM Modi also attacked the Congress for not condemning Nitish Kumar for his remarks.

"Not a single Congress leader said it was a strong statement and did not come forward to condemn him," PM Modi said.

Rajasthan goes to polls on November 25.

Same Train Will Continue, Only The Engine Has Changed: Suryakumar Yadav

by Shambhu Datta Mishra

Pallekele (Sri Lanka), July 26: India T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav has asserted that the team will continue to work in the same fashion in the shortest format of cricket even after the departure of the stalwart trio.

India successfully ended their 13-year-long ICC World Cup drought by lifting the coveted T20 title in Barbados last month.

India's T20 World Cup final carried a mixed bag of emotions for the Indian fans. There were tears of joy as India ended their ICC World Cup drought, which lasted for 13 years. There were tears of sorrow as well, with the star trio of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Ravindra Jadeja bidding adieu to the shortest format of cricket.

Even in the absence of the stalwart trio, the T20I set-up consists of the majority of players. Suryakumar believes that the team will continue to function in a similar fashion.

"The same train will continue. Only the engine has changed. The bogies (carriages) are the same. It's now been 10 years since we've been working together, even though I went into a different franchise in 2018, and he also went to another. We used to keep in touch and talk about the game, even if we were on different teams. There have been learnings in the last six years too when I was not with him," Suryakumar said, as quoted by ESPNcricinfo.

The T20I series against Sri Lanka will mark the first assignment of the new head coach, Gautam Gambhir. Suryakumar worked with Gambhir during his time in the Indian Premier League franchise Kolkata Knight Riders.

While talking about his relationship with Gambhir, Suryakumar said, "Our bond is special. We have spoken about the upcoming three T20s, not in great detail, but we know each other fairly well. We can read each other's body language. There are some things he understands, even if I don't say them in words. There's a special bond between a captain and a coach. I'm very excited for this journey."

Suryakumar played under the leadership of Rohit Sharma in the Indian team as well as with the Mumbai Indians. The dynamic batter opened up about the lessons he learned from the seasoned opener and said, "What I've learned from Rohit is that he is always a leader on and off the field, not just as a captain. There's a big difference between the two. A leader stands with his players and guides them about how to play T20s, how to win games, and that's what I've learned from him."

While addressing his own versatile batting style, Suryakumar does not expect that captaincy will prove to be a hurdle in his play style.

"I don't think my batting style will change, as such. There will be pressure, but the pressure is always there; otherwise, there's no fun in playing. I'm going to play the way I've been playing so far. Nothing will change. It's better for me, in fact, because I can tell the team openly what brand of cricket we have to play in T20s going forward. I'll enjoy it more and can probably pass the pressure on to others (laughs) and enjoy my game," Suryakumar stated.

India will play the first T20I of the three-match series Saturday in Pallekele. Shubman Gill will serve as Suryakumar's deputy throughout the series.

T20I Squad: Suryakumar Yadav (C), Shubman Gill (vc), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rinku Singh, Riyan Parag, Rishabh Pant (wk), Sanju Samson (wk), Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dube, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Khaleel Ahmed, and Mohammed Siraj.

by Shambhu Datta Mishra

More than 24 lakh students participated in the NEET-UG 2024 examination which was held at 4,750 different Centres located in 571 cities throughout the country on May 5, 2024, between 2 pm and 5.20 pm. It also included 14 cities outside India.

In an official release, the NTA, said, "The National Testing Agency conducted the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (UG) for more than 24 lakh candidates at 4750 different Centres located in 571 Cities throughout the country including 14 Cities outside India on 05 May 2024 (Sunday) from 02:00 P.M. to 05:20 P.M.(IST).

Also, the re-examination of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (Undergraduate) [NEET (UG)] - 2024 was conducted June 23, 2024, for 1563 candidates who had experienced time loss during the originally scheduled examination on May 5, 2024.

The re-revised results came after the Supreme Court on July 23 refused to cancel the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test-Under Graduate (NEET-UG) 2024 examination held on May 5, holding that there was no systemic breach in the exam.

A bench of Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud and Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra said that at the present stage, there is an absence of material on record to lead to the conclusion that the result of the exam is vitiated or that there is any systematic breach.

It said the data on record is not indicative of a systemic leak of the NEET-UG question paper, which would indicate a disruption of the sanctity of the exam.

However, it acknowledged the fact that the leak of the NEET-UG paper took place at Hazaribagh and Patna and said that it is "not in dispute".

The apex court also said that the report submitted by the government shows probe is on and the central agency indicates that material shows 155 students drawn from the exam centres at Hazaribagh and Patna appeared to be the beneficiaries of the fraud. "The probe by the CBI, however, has not attained finality," it added.

The bench also said that directing a fresh NEET-UG exam for the present year would be replete with serious consequences for over 23 lakh students who appeared in this exam.

"Ordering a re-exam will lead to disruption of the academic schedule, causing a cascading effect in the coming years," the bench stated in its order.

The bench also said there is an urgent need to provide certainty and finality to the dispute which has occurred and affected the careers of over 2 million students.
