Kerala Vigilance probe adds new dimension to Congress campaign against CEC
Digital Desk | New Delhi/Thiruvananthapuram, Nov 6 (IANS) With the Congress leadership preparing to intensify its campaign for the removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, Kerala has opened a fresh front with a Vigilance probe into an alleged bribery case dating back to his tenure as a state government official. The two developments have given a new political dimension to the growing confrontation with CEC Kumar, who is already facing a concerted campaign by the INDIA bloc over alleged irregularities in the revision of electoral rolls. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is hosting a gathering of senior party leaders in Delhi on Friday, with Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and other top functionaries expected to attend. Though officially described as a Diwali get-together, the meeting assumes significance amid the party's plans to decide its next course of action against Kumar. Kerala Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan has also reached the national capital to attend the meeting. The Congress leadership is expected to discuss how to take forward the demand for CEC Kumar's removal, particularly with the next session of Parliament likely to be held later this month. The INDIA bloc is also considering fresh parliamentary moves against the CEC. The Opposition had already held a symbolic public impeachment of CEC Kumar on October 31, followed by a massive rally at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan on November 1. It has been demanding his removal over alleged electoral irregularities. The Kerala development, meanwhile, could add another dimension to the campaign. The state Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau has ordered a Preliminary Enquiry into a complaint alleging that CEC Kumar demanded a bribe of Rs 2 crore when he was the PWD Secretary. The complaint was filed by former contractor Sajan V.O., who was associated with Patibel, the company involved in the Kerala State Transport Project roadworks. Vigilance Director Manoj Abraham has directed the Special Investigation Unit-I to register the enquiry and examine documents and statements from an earlier Vigilance investigation dating back to 2007. The complaint alleges that four bills worth crores of rupees were withheld after the alleged bribe demand was not met. The political and legal implications of the Kerala enquiry are expected to figure in the wider debate over CEC Kumar. However, the Vigilance proceedings and the parliamentary process for removal are separate matters. Under the Constitution, a CEC can be removed only through the procedure applicable to a Supreme Court judge, requiring special majorities in both Houses of Parliament.

Deeply honoured to be your next Mayor: Indian-born Nithya Raman scripts history in Los Angeles
New York, Nov 06: Indian-born democratic socialist Nithya Raman has been elected Mayor of Los Angeles, scripting history as she becomes the first South Asian mayor of the nations second-largest city. Raman, 45, who was a Los Angeles City Council member, defeated incumbent 73-year-old Karen Bass in the November 3 mid-term elections. With this victory, Americas two largest cities - New York and Los Angeles - are now run by Indian-descent mayors who are Democratic Socialists. Los Angeles, I am deeply honoured to be your next Mayor. Thank you to the thousands of people who knocked on doors, sent texts, made phone calls, convinced their neighbours to believe in the promise of this big, beautiful, joyful city that we get to call home, Raman said in a video posted on X Thursday. Raman paid tribute to her predecessor Bass, the first woman mayor of Los Angeles, for her decades-long public service. I am going to City Hall to work every single day to earn your trust and to earn your trust in this city again. And that work starts now, so that we can build housing that people can afford, parks for our children to play in, a transit system that can get people where they need to go, a city that is safe for its working people and its families, and a city government that is actually capable of delivering on its promises, Raman said. LA City Councilmember for District 4, Kerala-born Raman is an urban planner by training, and she received her bachelors degree from Harvard and a graduate degree from MIT. Raman is among the several Indian-American candidates who have emerged victorious across the country in the US midterm elections that concluded Tuesday and delivered a significant rebuke to President Donald Trump and the Republicans as the Democrats gained control of the House and Senate, flipping seats and traditional party strongholds in a massive blue wave across America. Indian American Impact, an organisation that empowers South Asian and Indian-American communities through community engagement, civic partnerships, and candidate support, congratulated Raman on her victory in the general election for Mayor of Los Angeles. Noting that Raman will become the first South Asian American mayor of the nations second-largest city, the Indian American Impact said her victory reflects the growing political power of South Asian Americans in California, a state with more than one million South Asian residents, the largest such population in the country. Executive Director of Indian American Impact Chintan Patel said in a statement that Raman ran on lowering rents, building housing faster, and making city services work for Angelenos, and voters chose her to deliver it. With her win, South Asian Americans will lead the two largest cities in the United States, Patel said, referring to New York and its Mayor Mamdani. The 5.5 million-strong Indian-American community registered significant political gains in the midterms, with several candidates from the community winning historic elections to various positions across the country. Pia Dandiya of Florida and Dr Amish Shah of Arizona will be the newest Indian-American members of the US Congress, with their victories speaking to the growing political power of our communities. They will join Representative Ami Bera, Representative Pramila Jayapal, Representative Ro Khanna and Representative Suhas Subramanyam at Capitol Hill. At a time of rising hate against our communities, representation matters, and they will fight to keep our communities safe, Indian American Impact said. All six are committed to lowering costs for working families, expanding access to health care, and protecting immigrants, and they will serve as a powerful check on the Trump administration in the next Congress, the organisation said. Among the other notable election victories are that of Manoj Chourasia, who has been reelected to the New Hampshire State House, Darshana Patel who won her reelection to the California State Assembly, Ranjeev Puri whose won reelection to the Michigan House of Representatives. With Democrats retaking the chamber, Puri is expected to become Michigans next Speaker of the House, which would make him the first Indian American Speaker of a state House in the country. Dr Krish Subrahmanian won his election for the Minnesota State Senate; Aruna Miller has been reelected as Lieutenant Governor of Maryland; Lisa Kaul won her election for the New York State Senate, defeating a Republican incumbent and flipping a seat in New York; and Nabeela Syed won her election for Illinois State Senate District 26. Amar Mukunda won his election to the Maryland State Senate; Saba Haider has been elected to the Illinois State House; Josh Kaul has been re-elected as Wisconsin's Attorney General; Pooja Sethi won her election to the Texas House, District 47, becoming the first Indian American to serve in the Texas legislature; and Jyot Singh has been elected to the Georgia State House, District 97, the first Indian American and first Sikh American elected to the Georgia State Legislature.

Ranji Trophy: Tripura stun Saurashtra; Mumbai get fourth win, Hyderabad edge Chhattisgarh
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 5 (IANS) Tripura pulled off one of the biggest upsets in the 2026/27 Ranji Trophy by defeating former champions Saurashtra by 133 runs on the final day of their Elite Group B clash. Set 342 to win, Saurashtra were undone once again by off-spinner Sandip Sarkar. He followed his first-innings figures of 4-48 with 4-81, and finished with eight wickets in the match. Arpit Vasavada made 89, the only half-century of the second innings for Saurashtra, and was the last man to be dismissed after he was run out by Manisankar Murasingh to seal a famous win for Tripura in Agartala. Sridam Paul was named Player of the Match for scores of 86 and 50. At the Brabourne Stadium, 42-time champions Mumbai beat Railways by 106 runs to get their fourth straight outright win of the season. Mumbai had to wait until the final session to clinch the victory.
