Flagging alleged irregularities in the Maharashtra assembly polls , Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday claimed that there weren't isolated glitches but vote theft and demanded the immediate release of machine-readable digital voter rolls as well as CCTV footage. The Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha shared on X a media report which claimed that in just six months between the 2024 Lok Sabha elections and the Maharashtra assembly polls, Nagpur South West -- the seat held by BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis -- added 29,219 new voters. In Maharashtra CM's own constituency, the voter list grew by 8% in just 5 months. Some booths saw a 20-50% surge. BLOs reported unknown individuals casting votes, Gandhi said in his post. Media uncovered thousands of voters with no verified address. And the EC? Silent -- or complicit. These aren't isolated glitches. This is vote theft. The cover-up is the confession, he said. That's why we demand the immediate release of machine-readable digital voter rolls and CCTV footage, Gandhi added. In Maharashtra CMs own constituency, the voter list grew by 8% in just 5 months. Some booths saw a 20-50% surge. BLOs reported unknown individuals casting votes. Media uncovered thousands of voters with no verified address. And the EC? Silent - or complicit. These arent pic.twitter.com/32q9dflfB9 Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) June 24, 2025 Fadnavis hits back Responding to Gandhi's allegations, Fadnavis asking the Congress leader to first speak to his party's elected MLAs before shooting arrows blindly. In a post on X, Fadnavis used a Hindi proverb to mock Gandhi's claims and cited specific constituencies to counter the charge of discrepancies in the voter list. Jhooth bole kauwa kaate, kaale kauwe se dariyo'... Rahul Gandhi, I understand the sting of your humiliating defeat in Maharashtra is intensifying by the day. But how long will you keep shooting arrows blindly? he wrote on X. The chief minister pointed out that more than 25 constituencies in Maharashtra saw more than 8 percent increase in voter numbers between the Lok Sabha and assembly elections, and in many of these, the Congress or its allies emerged victorious. In West Nagpur, next to my own South West seat, voter count rose by 7 percent (27,065), and Congress candidate Vikas Thakre won. In North Nagpur, there was a 7 percent rise (29,348 voters), and the Congress' Nitin Raut secured victory, he said. In Vadgaon Sheri (Pune), voter numbers jumped by 10 percent (50,911), and Bapu Pathare from the NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) won. In Malad West, the increase was 11 percent (38,625), and your own party's Aslam Shaikh was elected. In Mumbra, there was a 9 percent increase (46,041), and Jitendra Awhad from the NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) won, he wrote in the post. Taking a dig at Gandhi's communication style, Fadnavis said the Congress leader should have spoken to his long-time colleagues Aslam Shaikh, Vikas Thakare, or Nitin Raut before tweeting. This way, you wouldn't have exposed the Congress party's lack of internal communication so embarrassingly, he said. Notably, Rahul's remarks came on the day it emerged that the Election Commission has formally written to him on his allegations of rigging in the 2024 Maharashtra polls, saying all polls held by the poll panel strictly as per laws passed by Parliament and rules, and the entire exercise involves thousands of personnel, including booth-level agents appointed by political parties. In a letter emailed to him on June 12 in response to his article written in a leading daily, the EC has said the entire election process is conducted in a decentralised manner at the assembly constituency level, which involved more than 1,00,186 Booth Level Officers (BLOs), 288 Electoral Registration Officers (EROs), 139 General Observers, 41 Police Observers, 71 Expenditure Observers and 288 Returning Officers (ROS) appointed by the Comrnission. We presume that any issue regarding conduct of elections would have already been raised through election petitions filed in the competent court of law (high court) by the INC candidates, it told the Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha. However, if you still have any issues, you are welcome to write to us and the Commission is also willing to meet you in person at a mutually convenient date and time to discuss all issues, the poll authority said.

Censorship, arrests and merger of news agencies tools to control media during 1975 Emergency
NEW DELHI: Censorship of newspapers, arrests of journalists and merger of news agencies is how the Indira Gandhi-led government tried to control public discourse during the 21 months of Emergency imposed exactly 50 years ago. According to government data, more than 200 journalists, who refused to toe the government line during the Emergency proclaimed by President Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed at Gandhi's behest were imprisoned along with the opposition leaders. The government resorted to a shotgun merger of four news agencies, the Press Trust of India, the United News of India, Hindustan Samachar and Samachar Bharti, to form a single news agency 'Samachar', said former Editor-in-Chief and CEO of PTI MK Razdan. He recalled how news reporting was subject to stringent scrutiny and an IPS officer posted in the Press Information Bureau wielded the proverbial axe to ensure that pro-government reports made it to the newspapers. Journalists were forced to give laudatory coverage to Sanjay Gandhi and his family planning programme of forced sterilization of men and dismiss reports related to the opposition in a couple of paragraphs, Razdan said. Veteran journalist S Venkat Narayan, who was the Editor of 'Onlooker' magazine during the years of Emergency, recalled how he had to send the manuscript of whatever he wished to publish to the chief censor Harry D'Penha at the Press Information Bureau for clearance. The editors, including Kuldip Nayar of the Indian Express and KR Malkani of 'The Motherland', were arrested for publishing news reports sympathetic to Jayaprakash Narayan, the socialist leader spearheading the anti-government protests, and sensational stories on Gandhi and her son Sanjay. Navajivan Press, established by Mahatma Gandhi, saw its printing facilities confiscated, while a weekly 'Himmat' edited by Mahatma Gandhi's grandson Rajmohan Gandhi was asked to make a substantial deposit because of certain objectionable reports. Narayan, who was working with The Sunday Times in London, drew the ire of Gandhi's information adviser HY Sharada Prasad for reviewing a book written by Kuldip Nayar, who had liked the then prime minister dealing with her Cabinet ministers like a headmistress dealt with school kids. When I returned to India after the three-month scholarship with The Sunday Times, I found a bunch of cops from Delhi Police waiting for me at the airport. They rummaged through my luggage to make sure that I did not bring any incriminating items in the country, Narayan recalled. In New Delhi, the government cut-off the power supply to the newspaper offices located on Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg to delay or force cancellation of the editions on June 26 and 27. The government also blocked advertisements to newspapers that were critical of its policies to choke them of a large chunk of revenue and manipulate them. There were four newspapers in Goa during the Emergency. The owners were either industrialists or those in the printing press business. All of them followed the government line, said Dharmanand Kamat, who worked with the News Services Division of All India Radio in Goa when the Emergency was announced. Skirmishes with officials in the Press Information Bureau were an everyday affair as the newspapers sought clearances from the media censors for publishing the next day's editions, recalls A K Chakraborty, who worked as a Delhi correspondent for Nagpur-based daily 'The Hitavada'. Several journalists faced a series of charges such as tax evasion, jail term, notices to shut down the printing press and eviction from government housing. Another decision taken by the government was to regulate the supply of newsprint to media houses through the Monopoly and Restrictive Trade Practices Act, thus limiting the reach of newspapers. In February 1976, it enacted the Prevention of Publication of Objectionable Matter Act against the printing of 'incitement of crime and other objectionable matter', writes Gyan Prakash in his book 'Emergency Chronicles Indira Gandhi and Democracy's Turning Point'. In addition, daily censorship orders were communicated over the phone to newspapers to prevent the publication of anything considered against or embarrassing to the regime, Prakash writes in the book. The government also warned newspapers against publishing blank editorials, as the Indian Express had done in its edition of June 28, 1975 along with mass arrests carried out after the imposition of the Emergency. Razdan recalled how 'Samachar' formed by the forced merger of four news agencies reported on events during the Emergency. Reporters had to be careful not to annoy the government. For instance, there was a big rally by Jayaprakash Narayan at the Ramlila ground in Delhi. 'Samachar' had to dismiss it in a few paragraphs, while many newspapers gave it a prominent display, Razdan said. He recalled the Shah Commission of Inquiry that went into the excesses committed during the Emergency grilled officials at the Press Information Bureau for their acts of censorship of the media. It was LK Advani, the Information and Broadcasting minister in Morarji Desai's government, who ensured the revival of the four news agencies. We gained our Independence again, Razdan recalled. Narayan, the editor of the Onlooker magazine based in Mumbai during the Emergency, recalled a press conference addressed by Advani during his visit to the financial capital. Advani's famous quote 'when Mrs Gandhi asked the media to bend, it crawled' was a response to a question I had asked him during his visit to Mumbai, Narayan said. Kamat remembers asking Gandhi the question on the need to impose Emergency when she visited Goa for campaigning during the 1980 Lok Sabha elections. I have followed the Constitution of India. There is a provision to impose internal and external Emergency. When a person is giving a call to the police and the army to revolt against the government orders, as the chief of the government it is my duty to exercise the powers at my disposal under the Constitution, Kamat recalled Gandhi having told him. No ruler can tolerate a call to the army and the police to revolt against the establishment, Gandhi said, according to Kamat.

Kerala bikers retrace Shankaracharya's trail to Kashmir from Kalady
Over 1,200 years ago, a young monk from Kerala travelled from Kalady to Kashmir, propagating the oneness of existence, or what he termed Advaita. That ancient route traversed by Adi Shankaracharya was retraced recently by a team of 52 bikers who rode from Kalady to the Line of Control (LoC) as a homage to the lives lost in the Pahalgam attack and a message against terrorism. The bikers, who joined forces from across Kerala, rode under the motto Bullets against Bullets. For the bullets that terrorists showered on tourists in Pahalgam, here were the bikers own Royal Enfield Bullets. The two-week ride was flagged off on June 1 by Kochi City Police Commissioner Putta Vimaladitya, who also heads the states anti-terrorism squad. The idea came up after my friend R Ramanand, director of the Abhinava Gupta Institute of Advanced Studies, Vagamon, posted on Facebook about how the Pahalgam attack would soon be forgotten after the initial hubbub, says Mani Karthik, a startup consultant, who spearheaded the team. Some of us were researching the links between Kashmir and Keralas tantric traditions. Also, Shankaracharyas influence in Kashmir is still revered. Thats how we decided to follow Shankaras footsteps and named our mission Shankara to Sharda. The Sharda here refers to the ancient Sharda Peeth, now in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. But there is a Yatri Sharda Peeth very close to the LoC, near the Kishanganga river. Planning the journey wasnt without challenges. Our discussion group was infiltrated by stray social media users from as far as Pakistan, and agenda-driven individuals who tried to mar healthy conversations, says Mani, who left a career in the US to settle in Kochi and guide NRIs keen on migrating and investing back home. We had to weed them out and plan carefully. Only our core group knew the route map. Everyone who wished to join was verified. We finalised 52 riders, including 10 women and a trans individual. Among us were techies, a temple priest, a farmer, and even a 76-year-old. The biker priest in the team was Praveen P M from Thiruvananthapuram, who rode with his wife Renjini and their five-year-old son Badrinath as pillion. We have done several such bike jaunts, says Renjini. But this is the longest we have done. The team faced many hurdles along the way. The summer blaze in some places was horrifying. At times, there were delays when a bike broke down or a rider fell ill, she recalls. Mani adds, On the leg from Nagpur to Guna through a forest stretch, we rode long into the night and couldnt find food. But through it all, we felt a higher power guiding us. Often, someone would appear just when we needed help. Other Royal Enfield bikers assisted us in finding service stations. People who came to know of our mission welcomed us warmly. In Hyderabad, we were treated to a five-star lunch. Our accommodation was mostly in auditoriums, ashrams, or sometimes open grounds. Riding happy: The 'Bullets against Bullet' team on road to LoC. 'Biker priest' Praveen PM, his wife Renjini, and son Badrinath who were part of the expedition to LoC. Bikers taking a break. Yathri Sharda Peeth at LoC Bikers praying for Pehelgam victims on the banks of Kishen Ganga river at LoC. Bikers at CRPF camp near LoC. The high point of the journey was when the bikers reached the Yatri Sharda Peeth and offered prayers for the Pahalgam victims. While performing the rituals, we could see armed personnel from across the LoC. Initially, we were denied permission, but later allowed, on the condition that we finish within 10 minutes. We were perhaps the first civilians to enter such a sensitive zone after the attack, says Praveen, who rushes off to lead Pradosham prayers at the Chengalloor Mahadeva Temple in Thiruvananthapuram. Another highlight was the teams visit to a Kashmir village where an ancient idol of Goddess Sharda was recently unearthed during construction work. The idol, which is of immense research interest, was installed at a makeshift shrine there, says Mani Despite the scale of the expedition, the cost was modest, the bikers say. Fuel cost us about Rs 15,000 per bike, and another Rs 15,000 for miscellaneous expenses, says Renjini. Mani says the trip was an ode to Advaita. It was also a statement that terrorism cannot make Bharat cower, says Mani from his Kochi home just a few yards from the house of N Ramachandran, who lost his life on the meadows of Pahalgam that fateful day.

Cracker blast death: HC hikes aid, asks Tamil Nadu to create rehab protocol
MADURAI: Observing that repeated accidents in firecracker manufacturing units denote the failure of regulatory bodies in discharging their duties, the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court gave a series of directions and suggestions to the state government and Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organisation (PESO) on enhancement of compensation, scrutinisation of licensing practices, cause-based investigation into accidents, and structured rehabilitation framework for victims families, among others. Justice B Pugalendhi gave the directions recently while enhancing the compensation awarded to four women from Rs 1 lakh to Rs 10 lakh over death of their husbands in a fire accident at a cracker manufacturing unit at Ettakkapatti village in Sivakasi in 2014. The judge observed the accident is not an isolated case of mismanagement but is a part of a pattern of regulatory failure. The repeated pattern of accidents 131 deaths and 146 serious injuries between 2019 and 2023 in the region suggests a chronic absence of inspection, enforcement, and accountability. Despite the tiered licensing mechanism, district revenue officers, who are only authorised to grant licence when the explosive substances stored or processed are below 15kg, issue licences beyond their jurisdiction by permitting multiple sheds or use of explosives above limit, the judge noted. The Industrial Safety and Health Department, which bears statutory responsibility to oversee factory safety, is critically understaffed and the District Level Safety Committee constituted by the state labour department has not ensured meaningful oversight, he added. The criminal cases registered in connection with accidents are also investigated by police in a mechanical manner, the judge said. The cumulative effect of all this pointed to a breach of Article 21 of the Constitution of India. Thus, the award of compensation is not penal but declaratory of the breach, and Rs 10 lakh per family is a fair, just, and proportionate recognition, the judge added and directed the state to disburse the balance amount of Rs 9 lakh to each of the four women within two months. The judge also asked the director of industrial safety and health to ensure strict enforcement of safety norms under Explosives Act, 1884, and Factories Act, 1948, and relevant rules. The chief controller of explosives, PESO, Nagpur, was directed to scrutinise the licensing practices in Sivakasi and other firework clusters and take appropriate action wherever licenses are found to be issued in excess of the legal limit. Further directions were issued to the DGP to ensure that investigations into cracker unit accidents are done by police personnel with technical knowledge. Whenever it is identified that the accident occurred due to the fault of the employer, the licence of the cracker unit has to be cancelled, the judge said. The state may evolve a structured rehabilitation framework for victims families, including education support for children, widow pension and housing security, so as to address the long-term impact of such industrial tragedies, he further said. The order was passed while allowing a batch of petitions filed by Scheduled Caste women seeking adequate compensation and government job. The women claimed that though the collector had recommended payment of Rs 5 lakh compensation to them, only Rs 1 lakh was paid. The government counsel argued that the compensation was more than usual and three of the four petitioners had been provided jobs as anganwadi helpers. But the court said this cannot be treated as compensation for permanent loss of a breadwinner. There is no indication of group insurance, ESI coverage, or any enforceable liability fixed on the factory owners, the judge pointed out.
