'People do not want govt run by goons': BJP criticises SP ahead of manifesto release for 2027 UP Assembly polls

Digital Desk | Ayodhya, Oct 19 (IANS) BJP National Spokesperson, R.P. Singh, on Monday criticised Samajwadi Party (SP) chief, Akhilesh Yadav, ahead of the release of the party's manifesto on Constitution Day on November 26, for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. Speaking to IANS, Singh claimed the people of UP had already witnessed the previous promises made by the party and experienced what he described as 'goonda raj' and 'mafia raj' during its rule. The people of Uttar Pradesh have already seen the party's previous promises and witnessed the 'goonda raj' and 'mafia raj' in the state. The people of Uttar Pradesh do not want such promises or a government run by goons and mafias, Singh alleged. Meanwhile, Samajwadi Party MP, Awadhesh Prasad, described the party's election manifesto as a sacred document, asserting that the party remained committed to fulfilling its promises after coming to power. For us, the election manifesto is like a sacred document. We treat it with the same faith and reverence with which we regard religious scriptures, bow before them and follow their teachings in our conduct. Whatever we promise before the elections, once the government is formed, we fulfil those promises over the next five years under all circumstances. For us, the manifesto is a sacred document, Prasad said. The Samajwadi Party will release its manifesto for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections on November 26, which is observed as Constitution Day, Akhilesh Yadav announced on Monday. In a post on X, Yadav wrote, The Resolve of '27: The PDA's Manifesto. On the sacred democratic occasion of 'Constitution Day' on November 26, 2026, we will release the 'Jan-Man Manifesto'. Uttar Pradesh is scheduled to hold Assembly elections in 2027, with political parties preparing for the electoral contest amid a controversy over the Election Commission of India's (ECI) Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. On Sunday, Yadav urged party workers to remain vigilant at their respective polling booths, accusing the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of conspiring to create fake votes. He also accused the BJP-led state government of undermining the education and examination systems in Uttar Pradesh. In response to the SP's criticism, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath took a swipe at the previous SP government on Saturday, comparing the party and education to he two banks of a river that can never meet. Addressing a Teachers' and Graduates' Conference in Lucknow, Adityanath accused the previous SP government of undermining recruitment processes. The Chief Minister alleged that the 'Saifai Syndicate' had weakened recruitment procedures and created an identity crisis for young people.

1,800 people arrested during protests: French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez

Digital Desk | Paris, Oct 18 (IANS) French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said on Sunday that 1,800 people have been taken into custody during violent protests that caused widespread damage and looting, and investigations were being conducted to identify the perpetrators behind these acts. Nunez said that there can be no justification for attacking enforcement forces, targeting institutions, degrading public buildings, breaking into prefectures or town halls, or looting businesses in France. He hailed the police officers, gendarmes, and firefighters who intervened during the protests. Manifesting is a fundamental right. Sowing disorder with violence and in a concerted manner is not. Attacking our law enforcement forces, targeting our institutions, degrading public buildings, breaking into prefectures or town halls, looting businesses: nothing can justify it. In the wake of this October 17 day, which in some cities continued very late, I warmly thank and offer my full support to the police officers, gendarmes, and firefighters who, across France, intervened under extreme conditions, Nunez posted on X. From midday onward - in Marseille from the morning - outrages were committed by several thousand far-left individuals determined to target our public buildings and confront our law enforcement forces. Later, they were joined by delinquents who looted and ransacked numerous businesses in several cities in France: Paris, Marseille, Lyon, Bordeaux, Rennes, Strasbourg, Grenoble, Nice, Limoges, and many others, he added. The French minister said that over 500 police personnel, gendarmes and firefighters have been injured and several hundred merchants have faced material damage in the scenes of violence. For now, 1,800 people have been taken into custody, and as of today, investigations are underway to identify the perpetrators of these acts so that they may face justice, he posted on X. At this stage, more than 500 police officers, gendarmes, and firefighters have been injured in these scenes of violence. This health toll is unfortunately only provisional. The material damage is considerable, notably for several hundred merchants. The Republic will yield nothing to those who seek to impose disorder and violence, he added. The police prefect of the Haute-Vienne department said that the fire that devastated the town hall in Limoges during protests on Saturday had been brought under control. Maurice Barate said that a wild horde had deliberately set fire to the 143-year-old building, whose roof largely collapsed during protests, France 24 reported. Violent clashes erupted between police and protesters in Paris and other parts of France on Saturday on the sidelines of the nationwide marches against rising inflation, with protesters setting fire to many places and looters breaking into dozens of shops to strip them bare. The unrest comes after weeks of student protests. Tens of thousands marched across the east and north of Paris in one major march on Saturday. Protesters shouted slogans like Everyone hates the police and Macron, resign. Protesters set fire to a tourist office in the city centre in Lyon and broke into town halls in the cities of Marseille and Lille, where they vandalised the premises before leaving, France 24 reported. Dozens of shops were looted, including many in Marseille. Over 300 protesters tried to move up towards Paris's Champs-Elysees, which has several flagship luxury stores. Protesters shouted all cops are bastards as police fired tear gas, blocking the way of protesters.

Search intensifies for 11 people missing after boat capsizes off Baja California coast

Authorities are continuing the search for 11 people believed to be missing after a boat departing from Mexico capsized off the coast of Baja California. 16 Mexican nationals were already rescued on Friday, including one who was treated for shark bites. The U.S. Coast Guard and Navy are searching the waters using multiple aircraft and boats, along with assistance from the Mexican Navy. An additional helicopter will be deployed later today, according to the Coast Guard. The boat capsized in an area frequented by smugglers and did not happen in U.S. waters, according to the Coast Guard. Survivors told officials there were 27 people on board. We were able to help, and thats why we launched our assets, said Petty Officer Charlie Valor on Saturday. The region is popular with fishing and leisure boats, but fatal attempts to transport migrants from Mexico to the U.S. have occurred in the past. The Mexican consulate in San Diego said all those rescued were Mexican nationals. The Coast Guard said Customs and Border Protection was investigating and interviewing the survivors, but the agency did not immediately respond to requests for updates. If survivors were witnesses to a crime, they may be eligible for humanitarian parole and permitted to remain in the country for a limited period. Rescuers were searching the area with helicopters, a fixed-wing plane, a cutter and a Navy combat ship on Saturday. The efforts remain ongoing. Mayday call around 1 a.m. A mayday call was transmitted from someone on the boat around 1 a.m. on Friday, said Coast Guard Lt. Santiago Tamburini. A rescue helicopter reached the site about two hours later. It took about 90 minutes for the crew, which included a rescue swimmer, to pull the 16 people from the water, Tamburini said. The boat went down about 140 miles (225 kilometers) west of Ensenada, Mexico. The Coast Guard said at least one person was treated with injuries consistent with shark bites. Three were taken to Scripps Mercy Hospital San Diego, including the person with a suspected shark bite and two people treated for cold exposure, said hospital spokesperson Janice Collins on Friday. Three others were evaluated at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla and later discharged, said Steve Carpowich, a Scripps Health spokesperson, on Friday.
