Congress blaming PM Modi for its own defeats: Pralhad Joshi to Rahul Gandhi
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Sep 25 (IANS) Union Minister for Education Pralhad Joshi on Friday hit back at Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhis question on why Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not lose elections, calling it a crazy question and asking why the Congress was blaming PM Modi for its own defeats. Why didnt PM Modi lose? Rahul Gandhi asks. What kind of crazy question is this? Why are you putting your defeat on PM Modi? Joshi told reporters in Bengaluru. He asked why the Congress did not lose in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Jharkhand and Jammu and Kashmir, in reference to the partys electoral performance in different states. Joshi also criticised the Karnataka governments handling of the drought, alleging it was not serious about the crisis and was blaming the Centre for its shortcomings. He said the state should first release funds from the State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF) before seeking assistance under the National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF). In the past, governments led by B.S. Yediyurappa and Basavaraj Bommai released SDRF funds first and then approached the Centre. Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar should look at the old records, Joshi said. He alleged that the state had exhausted even SDRF funds meant for farmers and was pointing fingers at the Centre to conceal financial difficulties. Joshi further claimed that drought-hit taluks were being identified based on political considerations, with constituencies of legislators threatening to resign being included in the list. He said the Centre remained committed to Karnatakas interests and would consider assistance under the NDRF after a central team assessed the drought situation. On farm loan waiver demands, Joshi said the Centre would take appropriate steps in the interest of Karnatakas people. Joshi accused the Congress government of financial mismanagement and corruption, alleging that the Finance Department itself had indicated insufficient funds for schemes. He claimed important government posts were being auctioned, and corruption was widespread, citing a case in which a tahsildar allegedly demanded Rs 50 lakh to correct land records. On the Kasturirangan report, Joshi accused the state of trying to shift responsibility to the Centre, adding that the Union government would decide after considering environmental studies and expert advice. He also criticised LoP Rahul Gandhi over his remarks about PM Modi, asking him to examine the Congresss own performance instead of attributing defeats to PM Modi. Joshi alleged that Rahul Gandhi leaves the country during elections, mocking his role in the party.

Five armed men loot cash, gold from Canara Bank in Jamshedpur
Digital Desk | Jamshedpur, Sep 24 (IANS) In a major daylight bank robbery in Jharkhand's Jamshedpur, five armed criminals stormed a branch of Canara Bank in the Golmuri area on Thursday and escaped with a large quantity of cash and gold, officials said. Initial reports suggest that the loot is worth several crores of rupees, although neither the bank management nor the police have officially disclosed the value of the stolen assets from the bank yet. According to police and eyewitnesses, five masked assailants entered the bank carrying firearms. Once inside, they overpowered employees and customers at gunpoint and took control of the premises. The robbers then collected cash from the bank's counters and forced open lockers, making away with gold pledged by customers against loans. During the robbery, one bank employee who tried to resist was assaulted with the butt of a revolver and sustained injuries. After executing the heist, the five criminals fled the bank on foot, triggering panic in the area. Senior police officials, along with a large contingent of personnel, rushed to the spot soon after receiving information about the incident. Investigators have begun collecting evidence from the bank premises, while teams of forensic and fingerprint experts have also examined the scene. Police are scrutinising CCTV footage from the bank and nearby establishments to identify who are those behind the loot and trace their escape route. Intensive checking operations have been launched across different parts of the city. Several police teams have been formed to track down the accused, and raids are being conducted at suspected hideouts across the city as part of the ongoing investigation. Meanwhile, the bank management is assessing the extent of the losses by reconciling cash and gold records, after which the exact value of the loot will be determined.

Assam sets 4,000 MBBS seat target by 2031, says CM Sarma
Digital Desk | Guwahati/Ranchi, Sep 23 (IANS) Assam is targeting a major expansion of medical education, with Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma announcing that the state plans to increase the number of MBBS seats to 4,000 by 2031. Chief Minister Sarma made the announcement while addressing the inauguration of the 750-bed Baba Baidyanath Medical Trust Hospital in Jharkhand's Deoghar on Wednesday. Highlighting the expansion of medical education in Assam, the Chief Minister said the state now has 16 medical colleges and produces around 2,200 doctors annually. He added that the state government has a vision of establishing 32 more medical colleges in Assam, in addition to the AIIMS and ESIC Medical College already functioning in the state. Of these, 16 have already been established, CM Sarma said, while outlining the state government's long-term plan to expand medical education and increase the availability of trained doctors. He said that Assam's medical education infrastructure had remained limited for decades. The state's first medical college was established in the 1950s, followed by the second in the 1960s and the third in the 1970s. Despite Assam's population of around 3.5 crore, the state had only three medical colleges and produced around 300 doctors annually, resulting in a shortage of doctors in relation to healthcare requirements, CM Sarma added. The Chief Minister said the expansion in recent years has significantly increased the number of doctors being trained in the state. Assam now produces around 2,200 doctors every year, compared with around 350 earlier. He said that increasing the number of MBBS seats would be accompanied by measures to provide employment opportunities to the growing pool of doctors. Chief Minister Sarma pointed to the latest State Budget, which has announced the deployment of two doctors at each of Assam's 5,000 sub-health centres. He said the expansion of medical colleges and MBBS seats would help create a stronger medical education ecosystem while improving the availability of healthcare professionals across the state.
