Name change of govt hotel sparks row in Ajmer The BJP government has renamed Hotel Khadim, a property managed by the Rajasthan Tourism Development Corporation in Ajmer, to Ajaymeru. Assembly Speaker Vasudev Devnani had reportedly instructed RTDC to rename the hotel, which is situated opposite the district collectorate.

The clerics of the dargah, referred to as Khadims, have criticised the decision, accusing the BJP of trying to erase the citys cultural identity.

Teargas, torched vehicles as Rajasthan MLA candidate arrested for slapping poll official
JAIPUR: Independent MLA candidate Naresh Meena was arrested following high drama and violence on Thursday, a day after he slapped an SDM during polling in Rajasthan's Tonk district and set in motion differing protests from both his supporters and Rajasthan Administrative Service officials. The tension that started Wednesday afternoon, when the Congress rebel contesting as an Independent in the bypolls caught SDM Malpura Amit Chaudhary by the collar and slapped him in full view of camera crews, continued through the night and well into Thursday. Work across government offices in the state was hit in the morning with officials of the RAS Association and allied services going on a pen-down strike demanding that Meena be arrested. They said they would continue till a meeting with Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma. Ranged against them were Meena's alleged supporters. About 60 two-wheelers and 18 four-wheelers, including police vehicles, were torched in the violence that erupted outside the polling booth in Samravta village in the Deoli-Uniara assembly constituency when police tried to prevent Meena and his supporters from sitting on dharna. About 60 people were arrested in the early hours of Thursday following the violence that also saw crowds pelting stones at police personnel. As the morning progressed, tension spiralled. I will not surrender, a defiant Meena told jostling camera crews in Samravta, about 100 km from the state capital Jaipur, after he was taken into custody. As restless crowds could be seen roaming the village, police mounted vigil to ensure that nothing more goes wrong. The arrest was planned with care.

Naresh Meena, who had caught SDM Malpura, Amit Chaudhary, by his collar and slapped him yesterday pic.twitter.com/YvYnLcGhry Press Trust of India (@PTI_News) November 14, 2024 Police administration, which included senior officers in full riot gear, were deployed in full strength and held a flag march. Tonk Superintendent of Police Vikas Sangwan gave the final direction to the police team to enter the village and take Meena in its custody. Police fired teargas shells to disperse the agitated mob after Meena's arrest. Some also pelted stones at the police but no injuries were reported. Alleged supporters of Meena blocked the roads, which were removed. It could be anyone, the government is strict with those who commit crime. We are getting the entire incident investigated and asked for a report and soon action will be taken against those who are guilty, said Minister of State for Home Jawahar Singh Bedham. According to Inspector General of Police (Ajmer) Om Prakash, four cases, including for disrupting public work and damaging public property, were registered against Meena. It all started when Chaudhary, who was on election duty, was trying to get people to vote in the village, which had boycotted polling over a demand that Samravta be included in Uniara sub-division instead of Deoli. Meena was supporting the villagers. Hundreds of people were present outside the polling station when it happened. Meena later sat on a dharna outside a polling booth and asked his supporters to gather with sticks. After polling was over, police asked Meena and his supporters to disperse so the polling party could leave the station with EVM machines. However, police said, they turned violent and pelted stones at police. Before his arrest, Meena blamed Tonk District Collector Saumya Jha and SP Sangwan for what had happened. All 60 people who have been arrested are innocent. If anyone should be punished, it should be me, he said, alleging that the SDM on election duty had been working on the directions of the BJP. He got 30 people to vote by threatening them to take action against them. I could not stop myself. I slapped him. It is correct. Seeing his nature, he should have been slapped more. RAS Association General Secretary Neetu Rajeshwar told PTI that what had happened was intolerable. Such an incident is not tolerable. SDM Amit Chaudhary was slapped when he was doing his election duty fairly. The association is on a pen-down strike on Thursday. We will call off the strike after a representation with the chief minister on other demands. All our demands are constitutional. We don't want to let the public work suffer, Rajeshwar said. Polling for bypolls on seven assembly seats, including Deoli-Uniara, was held yesterday from 7 am to 6 pm and counting will take place on November 23.

Heritage Buffs Retrace Landmarks of Nizami Hyderabad
HYDERABAD: Why are some dargahs painted green and others yellow? Why do the names of many places end with 'gunj'? Did our ancestors have a different outlook on death? And, did Hyderabad contribute to scientific developments? Exploring these questions, a group of heritage enthusiasts embarked on a 'map-walk' organised by Deccan Archive on Sunday, part of a series where participants explore unknown neighbourhoods in the Old City through century-old maps, discovering what has been lost and what remains. The walk began at Fateh Darwaza, one of the original gates to Hyderabad, which was established as a walled city. The group used meticulously detailed 'Munn maps', created by the Hyderabad Municipal Survey from 1912-15 under British engineer Leonard Munn. They were made as part of the redevelopment plan of the city, in the aftermath of the 1908 floods. The group explored burial grounds and Sufi shrines, learning about the four Sufi orders Chishti, Suhrawardi, Qadri, and Naqshbandi each identified by different colours. They visited the shrine of Baba Yahya Pasha, draped predominantly in yellow, with highlights of green. This shrine was flocked by devotees in large numbers as traditional medicines were administered here. The saint lived around the 1930s and was a patron of the last Nizam, Osman Ali Khan. After the death of the saint, the Nizam would come to offer sandalwood paste to his shrine annually on his Urs, or death anniversary. The Urs celebrations of Sufi saints in the Deccan are unique. They draw large numbers of devotees, turning the event into a grand mela (fair). Offering yellow velvet cloth and sandalwood is typical of the Chishti Sufi order, which traces back to Khwaja Mohiuddin Chishti, who came from 'Chisht' province in Afghanistan and is buried in Ajmer, said Sibghatullah Khan, founder of Deccan Archives. Sibghatullah Khan also explained how Misrigunj got its name. The term 'gunj' means market, and 'Misri' means sugar, referencing a state-run sugar factory established by the Nizam, with products sold in this market, he said. The walks highlight was the dargah of Hazrath Shah Raju Qatal Hussaini, a descendant of the famed Gulbarga Sufi Khwaja Banda Nawaz Gesudaraz. The shrine, marked by a towering dome and 25-foot-high granite columns, also holds a unique connection to science. Its dome was selected in the 1880s for the Great Indian Peninsular Trigonometrical Survey to document Indias topography. The shrines history connects deeply with the regions last independent Qutub Shahi ruler before Aurangzebs conquest. Shah Raju Qatals prophetic choice for the throne, a young boy sweeping the floors of the shrine who turned out to be of royal blood, foreshadowed his fate. The saint sent the king, Abul Hasan 'Tanashah', a pomegranate. With great difficulty, the feeble-bodied king had only 14 grains. The saint then predicted 14 years of rule followed by 14 years of exile. Just as Khwaja Shah Raju predicted, Abul Hasan's rule came to an end with Aurangzeb's conquest of Golconda and he spent the next 14 years in solitary confinement. Reflecting on how Sufis approached death, Sibghatullah Khan noted, Sufi traditions often include preparing for ones death with rituals and decorations at chosen burial sites. They would invite others to pray at these places, demonstrating a fearless acceptance of death. This philosophy is seen in how Abul Hasan too, having lived all his life in a Sufi shrine, embodied some spiritual powers to be able to accurately predict the exact Friday of his passing a continuation of the unique Sufi outlook on life and death.
Sufi Scholars Stress On Self-Purification, Inner Peace
HYDERABAD: Hyderabad became a focal point of spirituality when nearly 40 Sufi scholars and spiritual leaders from across India gathered at the Urdu Maskan in Khilwat, near the Chowmahalla Palace. Organised by the Abul Fida Islamic Research Centre (AFIRC), the conference marked the fifth Urs-e-Shareef of Hazrat Syed Shah Hussain Shaheedullah Basheer Bukhari Naqshbandi and celebrated the 25th anniversary of the revered text Dalail Al-Khairat. This event celebrated the legacy of Sufi teachings, enabled discussions centred on peace, compassion, and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad. Beginning at 8 pm on Saturday and continuing through to midnight, the important figures at the event included Mufti Khaleel Ahmed Sahab, Chancellor of Jamia Nizamia; Syed Afzal Bayabni Kusru Pasha, president of the Telangana Haj Committee; Khwaja Syed Ghyasuddin Chishty of Ajmer; and Syed Ghulam Afzal Biabani Khusro Pasha, chairman of the Telangana Waqf Board. Each leader shared their insights on the role of Sufi saints in promoting inclusivity and humanitarianism across communities. Mufti Ziauddin Naqshbandi, Shaykh Ul Fiqh at Jamia Nizamia, and Murtuza Ali Sofi Pasha spoke on the importance of transcending differences. Speaking on the teachings of the Qadri, Naqshbandi, Chisti, and Soharwardi orders, all paths that, despite their distinct practices, guide followers toward self-purification and inner peace. A recurring theme was the call to forget differences and follow the path of our beloved Prophet Muhammad. The conference also included the release of Dalail Al-Khairat, a collection of salawat on Prophet Muhammad, and The Palace of the Gnostics. These publications serve as further tributes to Sufi teachings and inspire those who seek guidance. Through humility and love, Sufi saints conquer the hearts of people. said, Dr Syed Owais Bukhari, director of AFIRC, and convener of the event.

Amit Shah Hails 8-Years of UDAN Scheme, Emphasizes Affordable Air Travel and Regional Connectivity
New Delhi: Union Home Minister Amit Shah celebrated the eighth anniversary of the Ude Desh Ka Aam Nagrik (UDAN) scheme, highlighting its role in connecting underserved areas and making air travel affordable. In a post on X, Shah remarked, In the eight years of UDAN, the initiative driven by PM Narendra Modi's vision has not only connected the underserved regions of the nation through airways but also has given flight to India's ambitions in the new era. He acknowledged Prime Minister Modi for unlocking India's growth potential by providing essential facilities for development across the country. In the #8YearsOfUDAN , the initiative driven by PM Shri @narendramodi Ji's vision has not only connected the underserved regions of the nation through airways but also has given flight to India's ambitions in the new era. Igniting the growth engines scattered across the nooks and pic.twitter.com/xibDtU7Kxp Amit Shah (@AmitShah) October 21, 2024 During the NDTV World Summit, PM Modi stated, Today, we are celebrating eight years of UDAN. The UDAN scheme not only made air travel affordable but also enhanced the air network in tier 2 and tier 3 cities. Over 3 lakh flights, carrying around 1.5 crore Aam Nagrik, have taken off under this scheme. Launched on October 21, 2016, the UDAN scheme aims to make air travel affordable for ordinary citizens while improving regional connectivity in India. The airfare for a one-hour journey of about 500 km under this initiative is capped at Rs. 2,500. Prime Minister Modi, who inspired this program, expressed his vision by saying, A common man who travels in slippers should also be seen in the aircraft. This is my dream. The UDAN scheme is part of the government's Regional Connectivity Scheme (RCS) managed by the Ministry of Civil Aviation. It focuses on connecting underserved airports nationwide and assists airlines in operating in less profitable regions through government support. Airlines are encouraged to serve these areas via incentives such as Viability Gap Funding (VGF) and reduced charges at airports. The first UDAN flight took off in April 2017, connecting Shimla to Delhi. Since then, the initiative has expanded significantly. According to the Ministry of Civil Aviation, 86 airports are now operational under UDAN, and over 600 routes, including helicopter services, have been launched to connect remote areas. The scheme has also stimulated tourism, particularly in regions like the Northeast and popular religious destinations such as Khajuraho and Ajmer. UDAN's reach spans from Gujarat to Arunachal Pradesh and from Himachal Pradesh to Tamil Nadu. Since its inception, UDAN has enabled over 1.44 crore passengers to travel across the country, making air travel more accessible. The government aims to increase the number of operational airports from 157 to 350-400 by 2047, continuing to expand the vision of affordable flying for all.

Key Leaders Gather for BJP Strategy Meeting Ahead of Uttar Pradesh By-Polls
Lucknow: Poli tical activities have intensified for the by-elections to be held on 10 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh. An important meeting of BJP is being held in New Delhi, in which Home Minister Amit Shah, Party President JP Nadda, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, and Deputy CM of the state may attend. UP BJP President Bhupendra Chaudhary and State Organization General Secretary Dharampal will also be present in the meeting. The strategy for the by-election is likely to be discussed in this meeting. Although the Election Commission has not yet announced the dates for the by-elections, the politics of the state has heated up. The contest is mainly seen between the BJP and the Samajwadi Party (SP), and the leaders of both the parties are holding continuous meetings. The seats in the state where by-elections are to be held include Karhal, Milkipur, Katehari, Kundarki, Ghaziabad, Khair, Meerapur, Phulpur, Manjhwa and Sisamau. Of these, 5 seats were with the Samajwadi Party, while RLD and Nishad Party have one seat each. BJP has 3 seats. After SP challenged BJP in the Lok Sabha elections, this by-election is considered a big test for Yogi Adityanath. According to sources, BJP has prepared a panel of 27 names for 9 seats, which is being discussed. It is also being considered to leave seats for allies. BJP is considering giving Meerapur seat to RLD, but consensus has not been reached on Khair seat. At the same time, Nishad Party is also demanding Kathari and Majhawan seats, because their candidates contested on these seats last time. Many seats can prove to be challenging for BJP. Karhal and Kundarki seat of Moradabad are considered difficult for BJP, where Samajwadi Party MLA Zia-ur-Rehman has become MP. Muslim votes are around 65% and Hindu votes are 35% in Kundarki assembly, and BJP won here only in 1993. Apart from this, there are difficulties for BJP on Sisamau seat of Kanpur. This seat has fallen vacant after the sentencing of Irfan Solanki of the Samajwadi Party. SP can give ticket to a member of Irfan's family on this seat, which can create a wave of sympathy. Samajwadi Party has already announced the names of its candidates on 6 seats. Tej Pratap Yadav from Karhal, Ajit Prasad from Milkipur, Naseem Solanki from Sisamau, Mustafa Siddiqui from Phulpur, Dr. Jyoti Bind from Majhawan, and Shobhavati Verma from Katehari have been given tickets. SP has given chance to backward and Dalit candidates on four of these seats and Muslim candidates on two seats.

NEW DELHI: The Joint Parliamentary Committee on the Waqf (Amendment) Bill is scheduled to meet on September 18, 19 and 20 at the Parliament House Annexe, official sources said.

At the fourth meeting, senior officials of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) made a presentation before the JPC. Also other stakeholders, including the Zakat Foundation of India and the Telangana Waqf Board, shared their views, suggestions, and oral evidence.

According to a statement issued on Friday by the Ministry of Minority Affairs, the objective of the Bill is to amend the Waqf Act, 1995 to redress the issues and challenges in regulating and managing Waqf properties. It (the Bill) aims to overcome the shortcomings o the previous act and enhance the efficiency of Waqf boards by introducing changes such as renaming the Act, updating the definitions of Waqf, improving the registration process , and increasing the role of technology in managing Waqf records, the ministry said. The government said that primary objective of the Mussalman Waqf (Repeal) Act, 2024 is to repeal the Mussalman Waqf Act, 1923, a colonial-era legislation that has become outdated and inadequate for managing Waqf properties in modern India.

PCS officer among eight charged by ED in Uttarakhand NH-74 land scam
DEHRADUN: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has filed a chargesheet against eight accused, including prime accused PCS officer Dinesh Pratap Singh in the Uttarakhand NH-74 scam. The Special ED Court has scheduled the next hearing in the case for November 13. According to official sources, the accused include farmers from Punjab, whose properties worth crores have already been attached by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). Significantly, the NH 74 scam surfaced in March 2017, prompting then-ADM Pratap Shah to file a case against NHAI officials, employees, and seven then-SDMs, Tehsildars, and staff from Udham Singh Nagar's Sidcul police station. The then Triwendra government constituted an SIT to probe the matter. In a surprising move, the state government had recently given a clean chit to DP Singh, one of the main accused, and dropped disciplinary proceedings against him without any penalties. Moreover, the earlier sanction for prosecution against him was also withdrawn. According to police sources, the scandal led to the suspension of two IAS and five PCS officers. Over 30 officials, employees, middlemen, and farmers were jailed in connection with the scam. PCS officer Dinesh Pratap Singh was named the prime accused in the case. A massive scam worth over 400 crore was unearthed by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) in the NH 74 case. PCS officer Dinesh Pratap Singh, along with several other officials and farmers, was named in the chargesheet filed by the SIT in 2019. According to the official sources, Singh spent nearly 14 months behind bars in connection with the scam. Following the SIT probe, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) also swung into action, attaching properties worth crores belonging to the accused officials and farmers during its investigation. After a three-year investigation, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has filed a chargesheet against eight accused, including PCS officer Dinesh Pratap Singh and farmers Jishan Ahmed, Sudhir Chawla, Ajmer Singh, Gurvail Singh, Sukhwant Singh, Sukhdev Singh, and Satnam Singh, under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.

Religious Tensions Escalate: Muslim Mob Attacks Hindu Youths Protecting Ganesh Idol
Surat: A disturbing case of an Islamist attack on Hindu youths carrying an idol of Lord Ganesh has emerged from the Mundra area in Gujarats Kutch district. Yuvraj Singh Jadeja, one of the injured Hindu youths, has filed a police complaint against Hamja, Farooq, and three unknown individuals for assaulting him and his two friends. So far, two accused have been arrested by the police. According to the complaint, the three Hindu youths were returning home after purchasing a Ganesh idol to celebrate Ganesh Utsav. However, when they asked the accused to move their bike, which was blocking the road, the situation escalated, leading to a brutal attack on them.The incident occurred on the morning of 6th September, Friday. An FIR was lodged at the Mundra police station based on the complaint filed by Yuvraj Singh Jadeja, a resident of Samaghogha village in Mundra taluka. # # 5 G , , pic.twitter.com/VIXHyzPzNw Kajal HINDUsthani (@kajal_jaihind) September 7, 2024 The complaint outlines how Yuvraj and his friends had gone to Mundra to buy a Ganesh idol. After placing the idol in a tempo, they were heading home from Mundra Umiyanagar College. As they approached a petrol pump near the Post office, their path was obstructed by a bike parked in the middle of the road, with two or three individuals chatting nearby. Despite the tempo driver honking and asking them to move their bike, the accused ignored the request. Yuvraj Singh then stepped out of the vehicle and politely asked them to move the bike so they could pass. However, instead of complying, the accused became agitated and started a verbal altercation, refusing to park the bike on the side and challenging the youths, saying they could do whatever they wanted. Soon, a crowd began to gather. The complaint states that Yuvraj and his friends repeatedly tried to avoid a confrontation, saying they only needed a small space to pass and did not want to cause trouble. Despite their efforts to de-escalate, one of the individuals from the crowd became enraged and started shouting. When Yuvraj asked him to calm down, the individual suddenly attacked him with an iron pipe, striking his right shoulder and causing him to fall to the ground. At this point, the situation spiraled out of control. The accused began hurling stones, and one of them, later identified as Farooq, pulled out a sword and threatened to kill the Hindu youths. The mob, now armed with sharp weapons, threatened that they would not let the victims leave alive. However, when the crowd grew larger, the attackers hid their weapons. Eventually, the injured Hindu youths called their friends from the village, who rushed them to the hospital for treatment.The man who wielded the sword was identified as Farooq, and another accused was identified as Hamja. The police have booked Hamja, Farooq, and three unknown individuals under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS), and two of the accused have been arrested. Yuvraj Singh, the Hindu victim, shared his harrowing experience with OpIndia. He revealed that the attack, which started as a minor argument over bike parking, took a dangerous turn when the mob noticed the idol of Lord Ganesh in their vehicle. Enraged, they began pelting stones, but the Hindu youths bravely protected the idol and eventually moved it to safety. Yuvraj also pointed out that the incident took place in a Muslim-majority area. He is currently undergoing treatment in the hospital but praised the police for the swift action they have taken so far.This incident raises several critical questions: Why does such hostility exist towards a simple religious procession? Why is it that every time a Hindu festival or procession passes through a Muslim-majority area, it becomes a target for violence? This isnt an isolated eventsimilar attacks have been reported during Hindu festivals like Ramnavami, Hanuman Janmotsav, and Ganesh Utsav across the country. How is it that in a secular country like India, where religious freedom is a constitutional right, such incidents continue to happen? Why are Hindu festivals, which aim to bring joy and devotion, met with violence and hatred in certain areas? If a simple request to move a bike can lead to such brutal attacks, what does it say about the state of religious harmony? Furthermore, while lakhs of Hindus visit Muslim religious sites like Haji Ali and Ajmer Sharif with reverence, why are Hindu processions and festivals met with hostility in Muslim-majority areas? Does this reflect a broader issue within the community about tolerance and coexistence?These questions beg deeper reflection and action from both society and authorities.

Stone Pelting on Ganesh Idol Sparks Massive Protests in Ratlam
Ratlam: During the Ganesh festival, which is being celebrated across the country, a serious incident occurred in Mochipura, Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh. A stone was thrown at the Ganesh idol, which immediately led to widespread outrage and protests. On the night of 7th September, Saturday, more than 500 people surrounded the Station Road police station, raising slogans against the stone-pelting incident. Initially, the police attempted to calm the crowd, and later registered an FIR against unknown persons. : . , , . pic.twitter.com/LcNW5w2Len We The People ???????? (@ajaychauhan41) September 8, 2024 After the FIR was lodged, the police went to the scene for investigation, but the protesting crowd followed. SP Rahul Kumar Lodha tried to pacify the situation, urging the people to return home. Despite his efforts, another stone was thrown, which triggered a retaliation as the crowd began hurling stones as well. A police vehicle was also hit, breaking its glass, prompting the police to take action to control the growing unrest. The police used mild force to disperse the crowd, and security forces were deployed in Ratlam to prevent further escalation. Two contingents of security forces have been called in to maintain peace. The FIR states that around 8:30 PM on Saturday night, people from the Puja committee were carrying the Ganesh idol from Khetalpur to Mehndikui Balaji via Hathikhan Mochipura for its installation. Women and children were also part of the procession. As they reached Mochipura on Hathikhan Road, someone threw a stone at the idol, causing tensions to rise. City SP Abhinav Barange reported that some participants of the procession claimed stones were thrown at them as well. To verify this, one of the witnesses was sent to review footage in the CCTV control room. As of now, a case has been registered, and the situation is under control. However, the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), which is involved in the protest, has raised serious concerns, alleging that this incident was part of a larger conspiracy aimed at disrupting Hindu festivals. They claim that attempts are being made to hinder Hindu religious programs in predominantly Muslim areas. According to them, fundamentalists from Mochipura are responsible for the stone pelting. This incident raises an important question: why does such deep-rooted animosity exist towards Hindu festivals within some segments of the Muslim community? While lakhs of Hindus visit religious places like Haji Ali and Ajmer Sharif with reverence and devotion, why is it that not even a single religious procession can pass through Muslim-majority areas without an incident? This is not an isolated eventattacks on Hindu processions, such as those on Ramnavami, Hanuman Janmotsav, and Sawan Somvar, have become disturbingly frequent. Yes, it is understood that idol worship is forbidden in Islam, but does that justify preventing others from practicing their faith in a secular country like India? If such incidents can occur in India, where secularism is a core principle, then what must be the fate of minorities in Muslim-majority nations? The situation in Bangladesh, where temples are openly demolished and Hindus are murdered inside police stations, gives a bleak picture of religious tolerance. So, can we conclude that peaceful coexistence with other communities is an impossibility for the Muslim community?
