'Owaisi, Akhilesh and Rahul will not form alliance: UP minister OP Rajbhar

Digital Desk | Lucknow, Sep 21 (IANS) Uttar Pradesh Minister and Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party (SBSP) chief Om Prakash Rajbhar has said that AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi are unlikely to come together for an alliance ahead of the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. Responding to Owaisis recent remarks on a possible alliance, Rajbhar said the differences over political leadership and representation would make such an arrangement difficult. They will not form an alliance, so they should not remain under any illusion. Akhilesh Yadav and Rahul Gandhi consider themselves leaders of the Muslim community. Owaisi ji wants a Muslim to become Chief Minister. Neither Akhilesh Yadav nor Rahul Gandhi likes that, so how will these people form an alliance? Rajbhar told IANS. Rajbhar also reiterated his position that Uttar Pradesh could eventually be divided into four states, with the eastern region of Purvanchal becoming a separate state. There is such a large population in Purvanchal, and the most important thing is that Uttar Pradesh is the largest state in the country. Sooner or later, whether today, tomorrow or the day after, it is bound to be divided, he said. He further asserted that if Uttar Pradesh were divided into four parts, the demographic strength of Purvanchal would make political leadership from the region significant. The day Uttar Pradesh is divided into four parts, given the population in Purvanchal, and since we are in Ambedkar Nagar, whoever we form an alliance with, it is certain that the first Chief Minister of Purvanchal will be a son of the Rajbhar community, the Uttar Pradesh minister said. Rajbhars comments came after Owaisi said AIMIM would announce its decision on a possible alliance for the Uttar Pradesh elections by October 2. Owaisi has said his party is prepared to contest the polls and wants to expand its political representation in the state. Addressing a public meeting in Kanpur earlier, Owaisi also said AIMIM was open to joining hands with parties that do not want the BJP to return to power in Uttar Pradesh for a third consecutive term. He urged such parties to work together and said AIMIM would announce its alliance, if any, after October 2.

J-K: NIT-Srinagar to open campus observatory with advanced 14-inch telescope

Srinagar, Sep 21: The National Institute of Technology (NIT) here is set to become the country's first NIT to have a dedicated campus-based observatory equipped with a high-performance 14-inch aplanatic Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, officials said on Monday. The telescope provides aberration-free flat-field images for advanced astrophotography and planetary observation. The Observatory for Astronomy and Astrophysics (NSOAA) will be inaugurated on Tuesday, marking a significant milestone in science education and research, they said. The facility will bring advanced observational astronomy to the campus and create a new platform for students, researchers and the wider community to engage directly with the night sky, an NIT-Srinagar spokesperson said. The centrepiece of the observatory is a 14-inch Celestron C14 EdgeHD Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, equipped with a computerised equatorial mount and supported by specialised astronomical imaging equipment, he said. According to the spokesperson, the system includes planetary and cooled deep-sky cameras, LRGB filters, a 2.5x Barlow lens and high-speed imaging capabilities, allowing observations ranging from the Moon and planets to nebulae, star clusters and distant galaxies. The facility is being developed with scientific guidance and collaboration involving the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA), Bengaluru, one of India's premier institutions dedicated to astronomy and astrophysics, he said. Dr Niruj Mohan Ramanujam, Scientist F and Head of the Science Communication, Public Outreach and Education (SCOPE) Section at IIA, is associated with the initiative as an advisor and collaborator, he said. His expertise in astronomy education and large-scale public outreach adds an important dimension to the observatory's vision, the spokesperson said. With the establishment of NSOAA, NIT-Srinagar will become the first National Institute of Technology to establish a dedicated campus-based observatory of this kind, providing students with access to advanced observational astronomy and astronomical imaging facilities, the spokesperson said. Speaking about the initiative, Professor and Head of the Department of Physics, NIT-Srinagar, Prince Ahmad Ganai, who is leading the project, said the observatory for Astronomy and Astrophysics is an effort to bring the excitement of observing and exploring the universe closer to our students. Our aim is to create a space where students can move beyond theoretical learning and engage directly with astronomical observations, data and scientific inquiry. We hope NSOAA will inspire curiosity, encourage research and help develop a stronger culture of astronomy and astrophysics in Jammu and Kashmir, he said. Beyond being a telescope facility, NSOAA is envisioned as a centre for experiential science education, astrophotography, observational projects, student training and astronomy outreach, he added. Ganai said the observatory can provide students with an opportunity to move beyond learning astronomy from books and simulations to actually acquiring and analysing astronomical data. Its potential impact extends well beyond the NIT-Srinagar campus. The observatory could become a regional hub connecting schools, colleges, universities and science enthusiasts across Jammu and Kashmir with modern astronomy, Ganai said. Regular sky-observation programmes, student workshops, teacher-training activities and public viewing sessions could help bring astronomy closer to young learners and encourage them to pursue physics, space science and astrophysics, he said. Ganai said NIT-Srinagar is mulling to start its hands-on course on Astronomy and Astrophysics in the coming months, where special sessions will be allotted to schools, colleges and universities in the valley as part of its outreach programme. The facility also places NIT-Srinagar among a relatively small number of Indian technical institutions with substantial campus-based astronomical observatories. IIT-Kanpur, for example, operates a 14-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain astronomical observatory with CCD imaging and remote-operation capabilities, the NIT spokesperson said.
