Kamal Nath Struggles to Secure Victory for Son in Chhindwara and Safeguard Political Legacy
Kamal Nath Struggles to Secure Victory for Son in Chhindwara and Safeguard Political Legacy With many of his close associates leaving his side, it is virtually a lone battle for Congress stalwart Kamal Nath to help his parliamentarian son Nakul Nath win from Chhindwara for a second time amid the BJP's aggressive push to wrest the seat. Chhindwara is the only Lok Sabha seat in MP which the BJP lost in 2019. As the polling date of April 19 nears, campaigning in Chhindwara seems like a family affair for Naths. On the other side, a number of senior BJP leaders have visited the constituency to campaign for their party candidate Vivek Bunty Sahu in this prestigious seat in Madhya Pradesh's Mahakoshal region. The BJP won from Chhindwara against the Nath family only once in the last 44 years. Last year, Sahu was defeated by Kamal Nath in the assembly poll from Chhindwara. MP Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, who has visited Chhindwara six times during the poll campaign, raised the issue of ''local vs outsider''. He termed Sahu a local, and Kamal Nath, who hails from a business family of Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh, an outsider. Former CM Kamal Nath is countering BJP's challenge by trying to strike an emotional chord with people. ''When I used to say 44 years back that I am from Chhindwara, the people would ask where it is. Today, wherever you go, you can proudly say that you have come from Chhindwara...I dedicated my youth days to Chhindwara. Whenever I come here, I recall those days,'' the 77-year-old Congress leader said at a gathering recently. Nath has also advised youngsters to ask their grandparents about the region's poor condition earlier and compare it with the development now. Notably, no prominent national Congress leader has visited Chhindwara to campaign for Nakul Nath. Senior journalist Rasheed Kidwai told PTI, ''Can the old warhorse pull off Chhindwara victory on his own? The opinion is divided but Kamal Nath, the nine-term MP and two-term MLA is confident of pulling off a miracle amid large scale desertions by his close associates in Chhindwara.'' He claimed Kamal Nath is counting heavily on the sympathy factor, which may work for him. Kamal Nath's wife Alka Nath and daughter-in-law Priya Nath are also sweating it out to campaign for Nakul Nath at a time when a number of local Congress leaders have left the party. Ahead of the Lok Sabha polls, Amarwada sitting MLA Kamlesh Shah, Chhindwara mayor Vikram Ahake, former minister Deepak Saxena, district panchayat vice president Amit Saxena, various corporators, office-bearers of municipalities, sarpanchs, and a number of Congress functionaries quit the party. Deepak Saxena, who was a close associate of Kamal Nath, had resigned from his assembly seat in 2019 to pave the way for Kamal Nath's entry to the House after the latter became the chief minister. Sate BJP spokesman Ajay Dhawle, a resident of Chhindwara, told PTI that nearly 5,000 Congress workers and leaders, including some prominent faces, joined the ruling party since the Lok Sabha polls were announced. ''The BJP is raising before the public Nakul Nath's poor track-record in the Lok Sabha. Out of the 24 lakh population (of Chhindwara Lok Sabha seat), 21 lakh have benefitted from of various schemes,'' Dhawle said. BJP president JP Nadda, Union minister Anurag Thakur, state party chief VD Sharma, minister Prahlad Patel and several other leaders have visited Chhindwara to campaign for their party nominee, Dhawle said. CM Yadav has visited this parliamentary seat six times for electioneering, he said. Union Home Minister Amit Shah held a roadshow in Chhindwara on Tuesday. Former MLAs and organisation leaders have been given social responsibilities in various areas of this constituency, Dhawle said. Senior BJP leader and state minister Kailash Vijayvargiya and Rajya Sabha member Kavita Patidar are stationed in Chhindwara to oversee the electioneering process, he said. To counter the BJP's campaign and desertions, the Congress has been relying heavily on the works done by Kamal Nath in the last four decades. The former CM's media adviser Piyush Babele told PTI, ''Nakul Nath will win by a margin of one lakh votes. The works done by him in five years and by Kamal Nath in 40 years of his political tenure will ensure the victory. The entire Chhindwara has witnessed these development works.'' He claimed that farmers have all possible amenities, and 6000-km of rural roads have been constructed in the region. ''Chhindwara is synonymous with Kamal Nath. He personally helps people towards education and health and people themselves accept this. Skill development centres of big companies have been opened, which provided employment opportunities to locals,'' he said. Farming in Chhindwara has become high-tech akin to neighbouring Maharashtra, Babele said. ''No other MP does the work like Kamal Nath did for Chhindwara. He has a personal touch with the people of the region,'' he claimed. The Chhindwara LS seat, a Congress citadel for four decades, has seven assembly segments across Chhindwara and Pandhurna districts, all won by the party. Kamal Nath had won from the Chhindwara Lok Sabha seat for nine-times and his son was the lone winner in 2019 for the Congress in the state, having 29 parliamentary constituencies. The constituency has 16.28 lakh voters, including 8.22 lakh men, 8.05 lakh women and 11 third gender persons.

IIT grad from UP tops civil service exam, 5 from TN among top 100
CHENNAI: Tamil Nadu candidates have performed better in Civil Services Examination (CSE) compared to last two years with five of them featuring in the top 100 as per the results declared by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) on Tuesday. While Aditya Srivastava, a trainee Indian Police Service officer, has topped the exam, Animesh Pradhan, Donuru Ananya Reddy, P K Sidharth Ramkumar, and Ruhani have secured second, third, fourth and fifth rank, respectively. Top ranker Srivastava (27), who hails from Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh, had completed his BTech in electrical engineering from IIT-Kanpur. A total of 1,016 candidates 664 men and 352 women have qualified in the exam and have been recommended by the UPSC for appointment to various services. Though the state-wise candidate figures are still being awaited, data compiled by former IAS officers and coaching centres show that of the 1,016 successful candidates at least 45 are from Tamil Nadu. The numbers may rise as TN candidates had appeared for the exam from centres outside the state too, they said. Last year, not a single candidate from Tamil Nadu made it to the top 100. Congratulating the successful candidates, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said their efforts will shape the future of the nation in the times to come. In his posts on X, the PM also reached out to the unsuccessful aspirants, saying they have chances ahead to succeed while noting that India is rich with opportunities where their talents can truly shine. 39 from state cleared UPSC exam last year While 39 TN candidates had cleared the exam last year, the topper from the state had bagged 107th rank. In 2021, only 27 candidates had cleared the exam and two had featured in the top 100 list. Last year, we had one of the worst performances of the decade as not a single person from the state had bagged a rank within top 100, said Israel Jebasingh of Officers IAS Academy. S Chandru, academic head of Shankar IAS Academy, pointed that the figures are quite encouraging as over the past few years there has been a steady decline in the performance of TN in the UPSC services. Whenever candidates from the state perform well in UPSC or any All India Services examination and their success stories are highlighted, it encourages many more from the state to write the exam, he said. However, he strongly felt that the states performance could be much better. He cited that in 2014, of the 1,126 candidates who cleared the exam, 119 were from Tamil Nadu. Experts said better pay packages and lucrative job opportunities in the private sector have taken the sheen off civil services, but now students are again turning their attention to the coveted exam. S Boominathan, managing director of KingMakers IAS Academy, said that many candidates who have secured ranks this year are already in service and this helped them to put up a better show. TN topper gets 41st rank T Bhuvaneshram, a native of Tiruvallur who bagged 41st rank, has emerged as the state topper. Currently serving as an assistant manager at NABARD in Thiruvananthapuram, Bhuvaneshram has cleared the exam in his sixth attempt. Dr S Prashanth (25), who holds the record for passing out with 36 medals from MMC, has cleared CSE in his first attempt

EC's novel initiative to increase voter turnout in UP: Polling stations in housing societies
EC's novel initiative to increase voter turnout in UP: Polling stations in housing societies The Election Commission of India has set up more than 200 polling stations within housing societies in the urban areas of Uttar Pradesh to increase the voter turnout in the politically crucial state. In an interview with PTI, state's Chief Electoral Officer Navdeep Rinwa said the poll body is targeting urban areas that have registered a low voter turnout in the past and expressed that Uttar Pradesh will secure the first position as far as voting percentage is concerned. In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the voting percentage in Uttar Pradesh was a tepid 59.11 per cent. ''We have taken a number of important steps to ensure that all kinds of barriers that prevent voters from casting votes are removed. We have ensured that the polling station is located within a two-kilometre radius of every voter. ''Also in urban areas, we have undertaken a new initiative of setting up polling stations within gated communities and multi-storeyed housing societies where there has been a low voter turnout in the past,'' Rinwa told PTI. The senior official said 200-plus polling booths have been set up across the state, with Noida taking the lead. ''Uttar Pradesh has the maximum number of such polling stations and Noida has taken the lead in this regard. Ghaziabad, Lucknow, Kanpur, Bareilly and even Mathura will have such polling stations,'' Rinwa said. Asked if the polling percentage in Uttar Pradesh will exceed 60 per cent this time, the CEO said, ''I am confident that UP voters will score the first division and pass with flying colours.'' Rinwa highlighted that SVEEP (Systematic Voter's Education and Electoral Participation) activities are also ongoing in the state. SVEEP is a flagship programme of the Election Commission for voter education, spreading voter awareness and promoting voter literacy. On the tepid voter turnout in 2019, Rinwa said, ''To find out the reasons, we have taken a bottoms-up approach for each assembly constituency. ''We have asked the EROs (electoral registration officers) and DMs (district magistrates) to prepare a Turnout Implementation Plan (TIP) -- an initiative of the ECI -- to identify the reasons for the low turnout in each assembly constituency and polling station. This is happening for the first time in the country,'' Rinwa said. Rinwa said, this time, more than 15.30 crore people across Uttar Pradesh would be exercising their franchise and the voting will be held from 7 am to 6 pm -- except in two assembly constituencies of Sonbhadra district, as it was earlier affected by Left Wing Extremism. Sonbhadra shares its boundaries with Bihar, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh. ''Keeping this in mind, the polling timing of 7 am to 4 pm has been proposed to the ECI. The ECI is yet to approve the timing, as it is done phase-wise,'' he said. Robertsganj (SC) Lok Sabha seat in Sonbhadra will go to polls in the seventh phase on June 1. Asked about the challenges in implementing 'One Nation, One Election' in a state like Uttar Pradesh, Rinwa said, ''There will be no problems if we have the necessary infrastructure, mainly, sufficient number of EVMs.'' ''We have over 1.62 lakh polling stations... if 'One Nation, One Election' is implemented, a minimum of 3.24 lakh EVMs will be needed, one for LS polls, and one for assembly polls,'' he added. The official further said the weather in April and May will be hot, and it might discourage the voters from coming out. ''Keeping this in mind, we have asked our DEOs (district election officers) to ensure clean drinking water at polling stations and shade for the voters standing in queues. ''We have also asked for some furniture for senior citizens, pregnant women and physically challenged voters,'' Rinwa said. Rinwa said the people have been advised to use the early morning hours to cast their vote to avoid the afternoon sun. On steps taken by the ECI to ensure that the polling staff also remains physically and medically fit during the election period, the UP CEO said, ''We will provide medical kits to all the polling teams, along with a list of do's and don'ts.'' On the challenges faced by the poll body, the official said, ''In UP and Bihar, there are a number of voters in the voters' list, who do not exist. This happens as people do not file Form 7 to get their names deleted.'' ''In the recent special summary revision, we have taken a number of steps to ensure that our voter list is clean,'' he added. Form 7 has to be filed in case of the death of a voter, shifting to a different constituency, and duplication of a voters identity among other reasons.
