Panaji, Jul 19: BJP leader and Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar’s claim that the state would never be short of beef, has landed him the soup. A senior leader of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) has asked him whether BJP has become the Beef Joy Party. On the other hand the Opposition have slammed the brazen double standard of the saffron party.parikarbeef

NCP’s Nawab Malik, CPI (M)’s Sitaram Yechuri and Congress’ Rajeev Shukla said that the if the BJP approved Parriakar’s statements, then the party was indulging in a dangerous double game, as gau rakshaks, claiming to be members of the party, have been assaulting those they suspect of carrying beef..

“Manohar Parkiar's comments show the BJP has a special set of rules for its party members. The fact that Goa's CM said that there will be no shortage of beef in the state, and that beef will be imported from Karnataka shows how the party’s true colours,” he said.

Sitaram Yechuri of the CPI (M) echoed Malik’s statement, saying that it was a case of double-standards shown by the party. “While gau rakshaks create havoc in the rest of the country, the Goa CM proudly proclaims that there will be no shortage of beef in the state. I wonder how the BJP feels about his statement,” he added.

Parrikar on Tuesday said the state-run abattoir here produces around 2,000 kgs of beef per day and the additional demand for it is met by supplies from neighbouring Karnataka.

Addressing the state assembly on the first day of the monsoon session, Parrikar, in reply to a BJP member's concern over the quality of beef supplied from the neighbouring state, said the beef purchased from Karnataka would be subjected to proper inspection. "Approximately 2,000 kgs beef is produced per day at the state abattoir of the Goa Meat Complex Limited, while rest of beef is brought in from Karnataka. "The estimated sale of beef, based on the meat inspection charges paid by beef dealers/traders is approximately 2,300 - 2,400 kgs/day," said Parrikar, who also holds the animal husbandry portfolio.

“On one hand, the BJP assaults Dalits and Muslims, and on the other, the Goa CM says that there won't be a shortage of beef in the state for its citizens. It's quite the double speak on part of the party,” Rajeev Shukla of the Congress said.

While the party high command has not reacted to Parrikar’s statement, the VHP has called for the Goa Chief Minister’s resignation. “Has the BJP become the Beef Joy Party? Parrikar should resign for his comments,” VHP leader Dr Surendra Jain said in a series of tweets.

There are similarities between US and India like:-
Intolerance towards certain community
Favoring Super rich.
Hate speeches.
Self boasting.
Both love Israel cause common enemy.

But, lot of differences like:-
For us beef is god, for US beef is food.
We have Gou Rakshaks, US has Gou bakshaks.
For us only one national flag, for US each state have it's own flag besides national flag.
We buy weapons, US sells weapons.
We are just trying to get into wars, whereas US is always in war since 200 years.

Thiruvananthapuram, Feb 7: Kerala government led by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Friday has come under the spotlight for depicting the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi on the cover of the state finance budget 2020-21 document.

Issuing clarification on the same, Issac justified that it is a political statement.

"Definitely, it is a political statement, the cover of my budget speech. It is a painting by a Malayalam artist of Mahatma Gandhi's murder scene. We are sending out a message that we will not forget who murdered Gandhi."

He also alleged that history is being re-written and National Register of Citizens (NRC) is being used to divide the country on communal lines.

"This is important at the times when history is being re-written. There is an attempt to erase some popular memories and use NRC to divide the population on communal lines. Kerala will stand united."

NRC is an official record of those people who are legal citizens of India. The dossier includes demographic information about all those individuals who qualify as citizens of India as per the Citizenship Act, 1955.

The register was first prepared after the 1951 Census of India and since then it has not been updated until recently.

Bengaluru, Apr 21: Hardline BJP leader and Bengaluru South MP Tejasvi Surya, who had deleted some of his old sexist tweets while contesting for Lok Sabha polls, yesterday deleted deleted his ugly remarks against Arab woman after it went viral and triggered sharp response from  many quarters, including from the Arab world.

In 2015, before Surya became an MP, he had said in a tweet, "95% of Arab women have never had an orgasm in the last few hundred years! Every mother has produced kids as an act of sex and not love. @Tarek Fatah."

The old tweet was picked up some influential members in the Arab community. Many intellectuals and various members of the royal families too have over the past few days condemned the attacks on Muslims in India and called out instances on Islamophobia. They have been highlighting derogatory comments about the Arab community purportedly made by supporters of the ruling BJP. It was then that a few found that even present day recognised leaders like Tejasvi had made similar comments in the past.

As the outrage grew, Tejasvi deleted the old tweet. A lot of BJP supporters on Twitter then started pointing out that Tejasvi Surya had merely quoted Canadian journalist Tareh Fatah, known for his anti-Islam comments. But by then someone had archived the tweet and Tejasvi's response to it in 2015.

In a thread to the same tweet, responding to criticism, Surya had said that these were not his opinion but attributed to Tarek Fatah. He also said that he agrees with Fateh's position that 'Islamofascism was a threat to all civilsations'.

Surya could not be reached for a comment.

However, a source close to Surya, said, "This is a 2015 tweet where Tejasvi Surya was quoting Tarek Fatah from an interview. It is being wrongly attributed to him with malicious intent. The main issue being addressed in the interview was about the barbaric and inhuman practice of genital mutilation of women. If there's any person to comment on it, it has to be Tarek Fatah."

Tejasvi Surya had landed in a similar controversy soon after his nomination as a candidate just ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

Surya could not be reached for a comment.

The Congress also stepped in to criticise Surya and the BJP, national spokesperson Sanjay Jha said in a tweet, “The BJP gives tickets to Pragya Singh Thakur and #TejasviSurya etc because it helps popularise their hardline bigoted political profile. But the chickens usually come home to roost. Today, India stands embarrassed, humiliated.”

This fellow from the bottom to now educted and trained in rss organization  and in their school. And he was nomnated by the terror rss HQ only to ignite  terror and communal activity and  not form any social work or record. He was elected by WVM poeer and not by peoples choice. One or th other day EVM  secracy will be unlocked  thenall these chaddi Dhaari will be side lined and vanished by the peace loving  PATRIOT Indians.

 

 Now the present ruling party's policy and steps all are 100% jews guideline all behind the screen.

 

But truth  always  leads and Win.  

So blind bhaks must awake and divert  their mind toward TRUTH to lead a peace life in the human society.

Thejaswi or his god fathers will never  support - their group adn policy is entirely diffenetn and they never support or mingle with fellow Hindus.  All must remeber and  think about their beloved family and dependents i/o of rss chaddi.

 

Jai Hind

still now arab belived Hindus are good people, now one by one coming to know their evil mindset which is inside their heart...most of the hindus are nowdays communual, so all muslim must be carefull.

 

one of my hindu friend who is with me from childhood 20 years recently supported CAA and NRC and we divide, till then i never thought that he was like this, i supported him finiancially in all help...

 

INDIA is belog to muslim first then to hindus, we are the front runner of indian independence,

 

so all muslim community first support his community either in job, money, help etc...for them they have their BJP & RSS.

 

Now in saudi & UAE they annonced that any Hindutva militen who is spreading against muslim & islam sitiing in GCC must be reoported without any delay.

 

Hope marons will learn a lesson of their life. Jai hind
