Digital Desk | Lucknow, Nov 15 (IANS) Uttar Pradesh Minister and Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party (SBSP) Chief Om Prakash Rajbhar on Sunday accused the Samajwadi Party (SP) President Akhilesh Yadav of attempting to influence Dalit voters despite what he described as the SP's history of insulting Dalit icons and harming the community's interests. He also claimed that jailed leader Azam Khan had called B.R. Ambedkar a 'land-mafia'. Rajbhar's remarks came after the Samajwadi Party organised a Dalit convention in Agra as part of its PDA (Pichhda, Dalit, Alpsankhyak) outreach. The exchange triggered a war of words between the two parties, with SP spokesperson Fakhrul Hasan Chand accusing Rajbhar of being part of a government under which atrocities against Dalits had allegedly taken place. Questioning the SP's Dalit outreach, Rajbhar said the party had previously failed to respect prominent Dalit leaders, including B.R. Ambedkar. It is an irony that the ones who insulted great Dalit leaders once are holding a conference in their honour. They insulted Babasaheb Ambedkar. SP leader Azam Khan used to call Babasaheb Ambedkar ji a 'land mafia,' and Akhilesh Yadav could not stop him on stage. How is he holding a Dalit conference today? the SBSP Chief added. He alleged that the Samajwadi Party had caused significant damage to Dalit interests and questioned its record on reservation and the 1995 attack on the then Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati. If anyone has caused the greatest harm to Dalits, it is the Samajwadi Party. Who ended reservation in promotions? Who attacked Mayawati in 1995? It was the Samajwadi Party workers, he said. Rajbhar also accused Akhilesh Yadav of expecting Dalit voters to support the SP despite its past record. Akhilesh Yadav is dreaming that he is going to get the Dalits' vote, he added. Responding to Rajbhar's remarks and his post on social media platform X, Samajwadi Party spokesperson Fakhrul Hasan Chand accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies of hypocrisy on Dalit issues. The Bharatiya Janata Party, which insults Dalits and includes Ministers in its government, is the same party whose workers were accused of bullying a Dalit in Lucknow. OP Rajbhar is a Minister in that very (BJP) government; he is complicit in these atrocities against Dalits, Chand told IANS. He also accused Rajbhar of targeting Dalit leaders and said the treatment meted out to Ramji Lal Suman reflected the BJP's approach towards the community. Those who perpetrate atrocities against Dalits, who have consistently stood against them, much like how they opposed Ramji Lal Suman simply because he is a Dalit, demonstrate that OP Rajbhar is anti-Dalit, Chand said. Earlier, Rajbhar had taken to X to directly question Akhilesh Yadav over the SP's Dalit convention in Agra, demanding an apology for what he described as past insults to Ambedkar and Bahujan leader Kanshi Ram. In his X post, Rajbhar targeted SP MP Ramji Lal Suman over his remarks concerning legendary Mewar king Rana Sanga, demanding that he apologise to the Hindu community. The Uttar Pradesh Minister listed several decisions taken during the SP government's tenure between 2012 and 2017, alleging that districts named after Ambedkar and Ramabai Ambedkar were renamed, including Bhim Nagar as Sambhal and Ramabai Nagar as Kanpur Dehat. He also alleged that Manyavar Kanshi Ram Nagar was renamed Kasganj and that schemes named after Bahujan Samaj Party founder Kanshi Ram were discontinued. He accused the previous SP government of changing the names of hospitals, universities and colleges associated with Bahujan icons, including the Ambedkar Medical College in Kannauj and Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Harit Park in Lucknow. The Uttar Pradesh Minister also referred to incidents in Agra's Panwari village, where a Dalit wedding procession was allegedly attacked because the groom was riding a horse. He claimed that nine people were killed in the incident. He also alleged that Dalits faced violence in Akhilesh Yadav's home district of Etawah. Rajbhar reiterated his allegation concerning former SP Minister Azam Khan, claiming that Khan had referred to Ambedkar as a land mafia during the inauguration of the Ala Hazrat Haj House in Ghaziabad, while Akhilesh Yadav was present on the stage. He also referred to remarks by Shivpal Singh Yadav about the possibility of making Azam Khan the Home Minister, alleging that such an appointment would lead to further atrocities against Dalits. In his post, Rajbhar said the people of Agra had witnessed what he described as the SP's political conduct and would reject the party's attempts to regain support.

Digital Desk | Lucknow, Nov 14 (IANS) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has directed officials to ensure foolproof arrangements for the safety, convenience and cleanliness for devotees during Chhath Mahaparva, stressing that there should be no compromise on public safety and essential facilities at ghats across the state. Chairing a high-level review meeting through video conferencing on Friday, the Chief Minister instructed district administrations to complete all preparations well in advance, particularly in districts witnessing large gatherings of devotees, including Varanasi, Gorakhpur, Ballia, Azamgarh, Ghazipur, Lucknow, Ghaziabad, Basti and Kanpur Nagar. Describing Chhath as a festival rooted in faith, discipline, purity and gratitude towards nature, Chief Minister Adityanath said, Lakhs of devotees will participate in the festival with immense devotion and enthusiasm across various districts of the state. He noted that devotees would offer arghya to the setting Sun on the evening of November 15, while the four-day festival would conclude on November 16 with offerings to the rising Sun. Directing officials to inspect all major ghats, rivers, ponds and other water bodies, the Chief Minister emphasised proper cleaning, adequate lighting, accessible approach roads, clean drinking water, toilets and changing rooms for women. Giving top priority to devotees' safety, CM Adityanath ordered the installation of strong barricades and warning signboards at vulnerable locations after assessing water levels and depths. Adequate numbers of trained divers, boats and water police personnel must be deployed to prevent accidents. CCTV cameras and public address systems should also be installed for continuous surveillance and crowd management. Special attention, CM Adityanath said, must be given to women, children and senior citizens. Adequate police personnel, including women officers, should be deployed at major ghats. Police personnel should be counselled and encouraged to discharge their duties with restraint, sensitivity and a cooperative approach, the Chief Minister directed. The Chief Minister also called for district-level control rooms and effective coordination between police and administrative officials. Traffic management plans, necessary diversions and designated parking areas should be prepared in advance to prevent congestion around the Puja sites. In a major relief for people travelling home for the festival, CM Adityanath directed the Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation to operate additional buses from Delhi to various districts of eastern Uttar Pradesh. He categorically instructed officials to ensure that passengers are not charged more than the prescribed fares. He also directed the Urban Development and Panchayati Raj departments to organise special cleanliness drives around ghats and ensure uninterrupted electricity supply, with alternative lighting arrangements. First-aid camps, ambulances and emergency services must remain available at major Puja sites, the Chief Minister said. Warning against negligence, CM Adityanath added, There must be no compromise on cleanliness, safety and public convenience during the festival. Senior officials were instructed to personally inspect arrangements and seek assistance from Civil Defence, NCC and NSS volunteers to ensure the smooth and safe celebration of Chhath Mahaparva.

Chhath Puja: BJP govts in Delhi, Bihar to run 77 buses with subsidised fare
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 12 (IANS) On the occasion of Chhath Puja, the BJP-led governments in Delhi and Bihar have decided to deploy 77 buses for ferrying devotees on subsidised tickets, Delhi Transport Minister Pankaj Kumar Singh said on Thursday. He said the initiative reflects the shared commitment of both governments to ease the festive travel rush and strengthen interstate public transport connectivity. The initial arrangement from Anand Vihar Bus Terminal includes 77 buses across five Bihar divisions: Muzaffarpur (36), Patna (13), Purnea (12), Gaya Ji (10) and Darbhanga (6), he said. To provide financial relief to passengers, subsidised festival fares are being charged across Non-AC Seater, Non-AC Sleeper, AC Seater and AC Sleeper categories, he said. Depending on the route and bus category, passengers will benefit from reductions ranging from Rs 134 to Rs 1,028, he said. For instance, the Non-AC Seater fare on the Patna-Delhi route has been reduced from Rs 1,615 to Rs 1,221, while the AC Seater fare has been brought down from Rs 1,980 to Rs 1,361, he said. Pankaj Kumar Singh said, Chhath Puja holds immense cultural and emotional significance for lakhs of people from Bihar and Poorvanchal residing in Delhi. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, the Delhi government is committed to working in coordination with the Bihar Government to ensure that passengers can travel home safely and affordably. The introduction of subsidised fares and additional bus services is an important step towards making public transport more accessible during the festive season, he said in a statement. The Minister highlighted the proposed Reciprocal Transport Agreement between Delhi and Bihar, which envisages 18 interstate routes connecting Delhi with major destinations in Bihar, including Patna, Gaya, Bhagalpur, Muzaffarpur, Darbhanga, Purnea, Araria, Kishanganj, Buxar, Nawada, Madhubani and Biharsharif. The proposed arrangement provides for bus operations in both directions, with a permit quota of 12 buses each for Delhi and Bihar on every route. Several routes will connect through major transit points in Uttar Pradesh, including Noida, Agra, Lucknow, Kanpur, Gorakhpur and Varanasi. Pankaj Kumar Singh said that passenger safety and environmental compliance have also been prioritised under the proposed agreement. Only BS-VI environment-friendly CNG buses and electric buses will be permitted. Buses will also be required to have vehicle location tracking devices and emergency buttons. The agreement further provides for mutual recognition of tickets issued in either state and stipulates that the arrangement will remain valid for 10 years subject to applicable legal provisions, he said. The Delhi Transport Minister reiterated that the initial 77-bus service is an important beginning and that its operations will be monitored to assess passenger requirements. Further routes and services will be incorporated in a phased manner to strengthen connectivity between Delhi and Bihar and provide passengers with more convenient and affordable travel options, the statement said.

Srinagar, Nov 11:Air Quality Index (AQI) readings compiled by Airleaf have turned into an India-Pakistan race. Cities in India and Pakistan overwhelmingly fill the list of the worlds most polluted urban centres as per the rankings released on 10 November 2026. This is perhaps the starkest picture of a regional air quality crisis faced by the subcontinent. The entire top 50 polluted cities are either in India or Pakistan. Qadirpur Ran in Pakistan recorded the highest reading at an extreme AQI of 1065, followed closely by Multan at 983. Gwalior, India ranked third with 816. The top 10 was dominated by a mix of Pakistani cities - Dera Ghazi Khan had an AQI of 716. RenalaKhurd had 700 and Okara 700. Indian cities had Kota with 698, Jodhpur 694, Unnao 693 and Kanpur 693. Down the list, the pattern continues - Pakistani cities such as Kasur, Charsadda, Arifwala, Pattoki, Phool Nagar and Bahawalpur are in the upper ranks. Indian cities including Hapur, Meerut, Soyibug, Lucknow, Palwal, Bhopal, Ambala, New Delhi, Ahmedabad, Nagpur, Varanasi, Ludhiana and Ghaziabad also register dangerously high levels. Even cities lower in the top 50 recorded AQI values well into the very unhealthy and hazardous categories. On the US EPA scale used in the rankings, an AQI between 201 and 300 is classified as very unhealthy. Anything above 300 is considered hazardous. Many Indian and Pakistani cities have readings above 500, and in several cases above 700 or even 1000, show severe pollution that poses serious health risks to the entire population. Prolonged exposure to polluted air is known to aggravate respiratory and cardiovascular conditions and reduce lung function. Post-monsoon and in early winter months, meteorological conditions often trap pollutants close to the ground.
