'Nothing to offer Punjab': CM Mann takes aim at Akali Dal, Cong & BJP
Digital Desk | Islamabad, Nov 1 (IANS) Paul Bhatti, brother of a murdered Christian human rights activist and former government Minister, has highlighted how the influence of Islamic extremists in Pakistan has increased, and religious minorities fear to stand up for their rights, a report said. Shahbaz Bhatti became Pakistan's Federal Minister for Minority Affairs in 2008 and was the only Christian in the Cabinet. During his tenure as Minister, he expressed support for Christians who were attacked during the 2009 Gojra riots and for a Christian woman sentenced to death for blasphemy in Pakistan. Bhatti's support for the rights of Christians resulted in him facing death threats, and he was murdered in 2011, according to a report in Christian Today. In his address at the launch of a report on persecuted Christians produced by Catholic charity Aid to the Church in Need (ACN), Paul Bhatti said that many human rights activists after the murder of Shahbaz Bhatti have become silent as they fear extremists might target them. In the years since (Shahbaz Bhatti's) martyrdom, many human rights and religious freedom advocates have fallen silent out of fear that extremists might target them. As a result, religious minorities have continued to face persecution, including the misuse of blasphemy laws, abductions, forced conversion and forced marriages, Christian Today quoted Paul Bhatti as saying. We urgently need to raise awareness of the reality of persecution of Christians and other religious minorities around the world today, he added. Paul Bhatti demanded a British Parliamentary probe into the treatment of religious minorities in the world, led by either the Foreign Affairs Select Committee or the Joint Committee on Human Rights. In October, more than 35 Christian families fled their homes in Pakistan's Punjab province after a Muslim mob set fire to a Christian man's house and shop following blasphemy accusations against him, amid fears of further violence, a report has highlighted, citing sources. According to a report in Christian Daily International-Morning Star News, dozens of Muslims assembled outside Kamran Masihs shop and adjacent home to protest, before some members of the crowd set the two buildings on fire. The report said that the police arrested Masih, a 40-year-old father of three who ran a small pharmacy in Gharial Kalan village in Punjab's Sheikhupura district, after local Muslims accused him of sharing a blasphemous video in WhatsApp groups. As word of Masih's arrest spread, his family and other Christians started fleeing the village, fearing a mob attack, a source told Christian Daily International-Morning Star News on condition of anonymity. Referring to Masih's relatives and other sources, the report said it was unclear which provisions of Pakistan's blasphemy laws had been invoked against him. Human rights organisations and legal experts have repeatedly criticised Pakistan's blasphemy laws, warning that they are susceptible to misuse in personal feuds and other disputes and have disproportionately affected religious minorities.

NCB order to freeze 25 properties worth Rs 20.10 crore upheld in pharma drug diversion case
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 1 (IANS) The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has secured confirmation of its order freezing 25 immovable properties with an aggregate invested value of Rs 20.10 crore in an inter-state pharmaceutical drug diversion case, an official said on Sunday. The Competent Authority under the Smugglers and Foreign Exchange Manipulators (Forfeiture of Property) Act, 1976 and NDPS Acts, New Delhi, by order dated October 30 under Section 68F(2) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, 1985, confirmed the freezing order issued by the NCB on October 2 during the investigation of the inter-state pharma diversion case, the NCB official said in a statement. Investigation in this case has so far resulted in the seizure of approximately 34 lakh psychotropic tablets, 10.57 lakh bottles of codeine-based cough syrup, 50,000 Tramadol ampoules, 5,000 Midazolam vials and approximately 2,200 kg of psychotropic powder, including raw material and formulations, said the statement. Seventeen persons have been arrested, and the network has been found to extend across seven States, namely Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Haryana, West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh, the NCB said. The case originated with the seizure of 5,000 Tramadol tablets at Amritsar on February 7, 2025. Their packaging identified J.R. Pharmaceuticals, Haridwar, as the manufacturer and Tiwari Medical Agencies, Dehradun, as the marketer. Enquiries established that the marketing firm did not exist, the NCB said. A Special Investigation Team constituted by NCB pursued the supply chain, leading to the detection of an inter-state network of pharmaceutical firms in Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh diverting medicines to non-existent entities for illicit distribution, it said. Financial investigation revealed that the sale proceeds of diverted drugs were routed and layered through the bank accounts of the firms under investigation. The accused failed to establish lawful sources of income for acquiring the properties held in their own names and those of their family members, said the NCB. The 25 properties comprise industrial plots, commercial units, shop-cum-office units and residential apartments, including properties in Gillco Industrial Park, Mohali City Centre-3, Mohali City Centre Walk, Janta Industrial Estate, Galaxy Heights-2 and Queenstown. The confirmed freezing restricts their transfer or other dealings without prior permission, preserving the assets for proceedings under Chapter VA of the NDPS Act, said the statement. Substantial quantities of psychotropic drugs and raw material were seized from Digital Vision and Vellinton Healthcare, Kala-Amb, Himachal Pradesh. Konic Goyal, Manic Goyal and their father Parshotam Lal Goyal, residents of Ambala Cantt, Haryana, remain absconding despite repeated summons and non-bailable warrants, the NCB said. Their applications for anticipatory bail have been dismissed by the Supreme Court. The confirmed freezing covers properties held in their names and those of their family members, the NCB said.
Digital Desk | Islamabad, Nov 1 (IANS) Pakistan's outreach to the Sikh community in the US has exposed sharp contrast between its claims of protecting Sikh heritage and failure in safeguarding minority community and its places of worship in the country. Several Gurdwaras in Pakistan continue to suffer from neglect, deterioration and encroachment while Pakistani officials in other countries continue to claim about conducting restoration work at places of worship in Pakistan and promoting religious tourism, a report has detailed. Reports on social media have claimed that Punjabs Minister for Minority Affairs and Pakistan Sikh Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee President, Ramesh Singh Arora, recently visited Gurdwaras in the US and sought participation of the diaspora community in heritage restoration under the 'Adopt a Gurdwara' initiative and invited the Sikh diaspora to the Gurpurab celebrations in November with promises of simplified visa procedures. Several posts shared on social media alleged that cash and cashier's cheques were taken from American Gurdwara committees, according to a report in Khalsa Vox. Anjum Javaid, reportedly linked to Punjabs Directorate General of Archaeology, delivered remarks at a programme titled The Sikh Kingdom in California's Lathrop and proposed an economic corridor linking Nankana Sahib and Khyber Pass, including the redevelopment of Jamrud Fort and Baba Phoola Singh Chhauni. He reportedly claimed that around USD 700 million had been secured, including USD 94 million from the World Bank, to support heritage development and attract Sikh tourists each year. However, these claims are in contradiction to Pakistan's record of protecting Sikh heritage. Several Gurdwaras in Pakistan have reportedly fallen into severe disrepair, faced encroachment and been repurposed for alternate uses. Attacks against people from the Sikh community, religious discrimination and concerns regarding minority security have exposed the vulnerability of minority communities in Pakistan whose heritage Islamabad wants to celebrate abroad, according to a report in Khalsa Vox. In July, the demolition of the 125-year-old Gurdwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha Sahib in Pakistan's Farooqabad left portions of the historic shrine in rubble after a local businessman allegedly carried out the work without legal clearance or court order. Authorities acknowledged the demolition only after Sikh residents of Farooqabad took to the streets to protest the incident, a report has stated. For the Sikh community of Farooqabad, the night of June 24 was not an abstraction. It was the sound of machinery tearing into a building their grandparents grandparents had prayed in a gurdwara built over a century ago, when the Singh Sabha movement was still reshaping what it meant to be Sikh in a modernising Punjab. By morning, portions of the Gurdwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha Sahib lay in rubble, demolished by a local businessman who never bothered to seek the legal clearance required to touch it. No court order. No warning to the community that has treated this ground as sacred for generations, a report in Khalsa Vox detailed. According to the report, an official later admitted that the department failed to take notice of the demolition until local Sikhs protested. It added that the Pakistani authorities responded only after a minority community, long burdened by institutional neglect, was forced to stand up and defend its heritage. That is the real story here not a bureaucratic lapse, but a community once again forced to fight for the right to simply exist and be remembered. The Sikhs of Farooqabad did not have the luxury of trusting their government to protect what mattered to them. They had to protest to be seen at all, it noted.
'Cong sponsored 1984 Sikh massacre, Rahul now rubbing salt into their wounds': HM Shah
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Nov 1 (IANS) Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday alleged that the Congress' politics had led to the rutal killing of Sikhs in 1984 and that the Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi was now ubbing salt into the victims' wounds by holding a major rally in Delhi on the same date. Union Minister Shah made the remarks while referring to the INDIA bloc's 'Dilli Chalo' rally at the national capital's Ramlila Maidan. Addressing a public gathering at Tiranga Park in Chandigarh, the Union Home Minister recalled that on November 1, 1984, thousands of Sikhs were burned alive, many were forced to flee their homes, countless children were orphaned, women lost their husbands, and thousands of families were devastated, in riots instigated by the Congress in Delhi. Referring to then Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi's controversial remark when a big tree falls, the earth shakes, Amit Shah said: People still remember his (Rajiv Gandhi's) statement, only Congress leaders could have the audacity to describe the massacre of thousands of Sikhs in such a manner. He highlighted that after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government came to power, riot-related cases were reopened, victims were provided financial assistance of Rs 5 lakh each, and prominent Congress leaders implicated in the riots were sent to jail. The country had never before witnessed riots sponsored by a political party on such a scale, Union Minister Shah alleged. Questioning the INDIA bloc's rally in Delhi, Amit Shah said: I had initially believed Rahul Gandhi was too young at the time of the riots and perhaps had not studied history, and therefore might not know the significance of the dates. He noted that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had appealed through a press conference that Congress should avoid holding the rally on November 1, 2, or 3, as these were the dates when the 1984 anti-Sikh riots took place and such an event would hurt the sentiments of the Sikh community, including mothers, sisters, and children. Despite this, Congress did not change its plans, he added. The Union Home Minister also alleged that the decision to hold the rally on the same day when thousands of Sikhs were burned alive was taken following instructions from abroad, asserting that India and Punjab would never forget the tragedy. Referring to the traders' repeated appeals to Rahul Gandhi and other INDIA bloc leaders, Amit Shah said: According to the traders, business peaks during the Diwali season. They stock sweets, firecrackers, and new clothes for children, and unsold inventory can result in significant losses. People from various parts of North India visit Delhi's wholesale markets during this period for festive shopping. Business worth around Rs 25,000 crore takes place during these three to four days. Traders repeatedly appealed through letters and press conferences to postpone the rally until after Diwali, but Congress did not change the date, he added. Meanwhile, Union Minister Shah cited the abrogation of Article 370, efforts to eliminate Naxalism, and the abolition of triple talaq under the Narendra Modi-led government, while asserting that the country was progressing at an unprecedented pace. Stating that the country, including Punjab, would be made drug-free by December 31, 2029, he reiterated the Narendra Modi government's commitment in combating drug abuse. Earlier, Union Minister Shah inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for various development and infrastructure projects worth Rs 258 crore in Chandigarh, following which he addressed the public meeting at Tiranga Park.
If you want to become PM, stay in mock parliament: Amit Shah on Rahul Gandhi
Chandigarh, Nov 1: In a blistering attack on Rahul Gandhi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday said the country will never forget that the Congress leader held a 'jalsa' on the anniversary of the Sikh genocide of 1984, and that if he wanted to become the prime minister, he should stay in a mock parliament his entire life. Speaking at an event in Chandigarh, he also slammed opposition parties, saying that telling lies, spreading anarchy and negativity, and not letting Parliament function was their true nature. He was addressing a gathering here after the inauguration and foundation stone-laying ceremony of various development projects worth Rs 258 crore. The opposition INDIA bloc on Sunday held the 'Chalo Dilli' protest at Ramlila Maidan in the national capital as part of its campaign against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged electoral irregularities. On Saturday, the opposition alliance carried out a symbolic public impeachment of CEC Kumar, accusing him of deleting votes to steal elections and demanding that he be tried in court for treason and jailed. The meeting was held in a setting resembling Parliament proceedings at the lawns of Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge. The BJP has described it as a mockery of Parliament. Referring to the INDIA bloc rally, Union minister Shah on Sunday said, If you desire to hold a 'jalsa' for the Congress party on such a dark day of genocide, then Rahul ji, no one will be able to take away anything except hatred from your 'mohabbat ki dukaan'. Shah said the Congress has been losing elections for 15 years, and its leader Sonia Gandhi's dream of her son becoming the prime minister remains unfulfilled. So, they have found a new way: conducting a mock parliament. I want to tell Rahul ji, if you want to become the prime minister, stay in the mock parliament your entire life. Your turn (as PM of India) is never going to come, he said. He lashed out at the INDIA bloc leaders for not listening to Delhi traders' request to defer their rally until after Diwali. The traders of Delhi pleaded with them, saying, 'We have just one day, one week in the entire year when our business thrives. If we stock up on sweets and they don't sell, what will happen? It will lead to losses. If we buy firecrackers and they don't sell, what will happen? It will lead to losses', said Shah. A trade worth Rs 25,000 crore takes place in these 3-4 days. The whole of north India comes to Delhi's wholesale market to buy Diwali goods, he said. But no, on the very day the Sikh riots happened, the Sikh genocide happened, on that very day, on that same dark day, they had to hold a rally, he said. Now remember my words: for the next three elections, your account is not going to open there, he added. On the anti-Sikh riots, he said, On November 1, 1984, thousands of Sikhs were brutally murdered in Delhi during riots incited by the Congress party. Thousands of Sikhs were burnt alive. Many Sikhs had to leave their homes, many children were orphaned, many sisters were widowed, and homes of many were burnt, Shah said. He recalled remarks by former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi that when a big tree falls, the earth shakes. I saw that statement on television, and I can never forget it in my lifetime, Shah said of Rajiv Gandhi's remarks in the aftermath of Indira Gandhi's assassination in 1984. To describe the brutal killing of thousands of Sikhs in such a way is something that only Congress leaders could do, he said. Today, his son Rahul Gandhi organised a 'bada jalsa' in Delhi to rub salt into the wounds of the victims of the 1984 riots and their families. The BJP held a press conference and had asked the INDIA bloc not to hold its rally on November 1, 2 and 3, as on these days, the anti-Sikh riots took place, Shah said. This deeply hurt our Sikh brothers, mothers, sisters, and children. Yet they insisted. From abroad, an order was issued to their party for holding the 'jalsa' on the very same day when thousands of Sikhs were set ablaze, he said. Shah said he strongly condemns and criticises their malicious attempt. India and Punjab will never forget this. Shah said when the Modi government came to power, it reopened all the cases related to the anti-Sikh riots. We provided financial assistance of Rs 5 lakh each to the riot victims and ensured that prominent Congress leaders involved in the riots were sent behind bars, he said. India had never witnessed politically instigated riots of this nature before, and I hope it never has to witness such riots again, he asserted. Shah said the Narendra Modi government is taking the country forward by leaps and bounds. Article 370 was abolished, Naxalism was ended, Triple Talaq was abolished, he said. Now remember my words: on December 31, 2029, we will make the entire country, including Punjab, drug-free, he asserted. The largest cricket stadium, the highest overbridge, the longest bridge, all of these are being built in India, worth Rs 11 lakh crore. Electricity has reached every poor person's home, the minister added. Shah alleged that Rahul Gandhi does not let Parliament run because he does not want women to get 33 per cent reservation. Rahul Baba, I want to tell you that this very Narendra Modi ji will give 33 per cent reservation to 'nari shakti' of India. This is our resolve, said Shah. The people of the country are watching all these things very closely, he said. Who is making the country safe? Who is making the country developed? Who brought innovation to the country? Who brought the new education policy? Who is making the country economically prosperous? The public of the country is seeing all these things, and all of this will be accounted for in the 2029 elections. Rahul ji, remember my words, said the Union minister. Shah said that in the coming days, the central government will make Chandigarh the number one administrative unit of the country. He also exuded confidence that an NDA government will be formed in the border state after the next assembly elections.

Stubble burning: Centre's CAQM team reviews paddy straw management in Punjab
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 1 (IANS) In a bid to ensure effective prevention of stubble burning incidents, a high-level Team of Commission for Air Quality Management in NCR and Adjoining Areas (CAQM) reviewed paddy straw management measures in Sangrur, Patiala and Malerkotla districts in Punjab. The CAQM officials asked concerned departments to continue making concerted efforts with close monitoring of stubble burning incidents.

BJP releases 'Thago Ka Mela' poster ahead of INDIA bloc's Ramlila Maidan rally
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 1 (IANS) Ahead of the INDIA bloc's rally at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan on Sunday, the BJP's Delhi unit released a controversial poster titled 'Thago Ka Mela' (Fair of Thugs), targeting Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and several other opposition leaders. Designed in the style of a film poster, the graphic features Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Former West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, Shiv Sena(UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray, and other INDIA bloc leaders. The poster describes the objective of the purported 'mela' as spreading rumours and creating anarchy in the country at the behest of anti-national forces to protect their political ground. Directed by Rahul Gandhi and produced by Akhilesh Yadav, reads another line on the poster, taking a swipe at the opposition leaders. Sharing the poster on X, the BJP's Delhi unit said: Today, at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan, it's going to be held again - 'The Fair of Thugs'. It further alleged that the objective was o spread rumours and anarchy in the country at the behest of anti-national forces in order to save their political ground. The poster comes as the INDIA bloc prepares to hold a major protest gathering at Ramlila Maidan against alleged electoral irregularities and the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. The opposition alliance is set to organise a large-scale 'Chalo Dilli' march, culminating at Ramlila Maidan on Sunday. The protest is aimed at highlighting alleged irregularities in the voter list revision process undertaken by the Election Commission of India (ECI), opposing the SIR exercise and demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar.

Indian American lawmaker hits back after Trump calls him lightweight, total dope
Digital Desk | Washington, Nov 1 (IANS) Indian American Congressman Ro Khanna has hit back at President Donald Trump, who attacked him repeatedly on Friday over his criticism of the cost of the war with Iran, calling him a lightweight at the White House and a total dope at a campaign rally in Florida. Speaking in the Oval Office on October 30, Trump said: I watch this guy, Ro Khanna, whos a lightweight. And he was saying that, President Trump is spending a lot of money. Well, I spent a lot of money in order to get rid of a nuclear weapon, which weve done. But any money weve spent in Iran, weve more than made up for with what we did in Venezuela, taken in hundreds of billions of dollars, many, many times, Trump said. Later in the day, at a midterm rally in Daytona, Florida, Trump returned to the Democratic lawmaker from California. I watch this total dope, Ro Khanna, Trump said, according to HuffPost. Fox puts him on all the time. You know, Fox is giving Democrats more time than they give Republicans. Im working my ass off, Im doing rallies -- and I come back and I watch the opponent of the person I did the rally for. Im not happy. But I watched Ro Khanna, of course, on Fox this morning. I cant watch him, Trump said. Trump also called Khanna a radical left loser over his calls for impeachment. Khanna responded on X. Thanks for the 4 shoutouts today, Mr. President. Ill be on Fox this Sunday to share more of my thoughts on your failure in Iran and how its raised gas and food prices, he wrote. If you get a break from bragging about oil company profits and playing golf, tune in! he added. He did not say which Fox programme he would appear on. In an earlier post, Khanna wrote: Trump said Bush didnt seem smart for spending trillions in the Middle East. Now he calls me a lightweight for opposing $47B in Iran. Spend that money on jobs and childcare for Americans. His voters wanted him to stay out of war. He lied. Result: Blue Tsunami Tuesday, Khanna wrote. The $47 billion figure is Khannas. HuffPost described it as the estimated cost of the war. Khanna had appeared on Fox & Friends hours before Trumps remarks, criticising the Iran war and raising possible impeachment proceedings. Khanna, who represents Californias 17th Congressional District in Silicon Valley, is among the most prominent Indian American members of Congress and a frequent critic of the administrations foreign policy. Americans vote in the midterm elections on Tuesday, November 3.
