Please don't withdraw the nomination, if you withdraw then definitely congress will lose for sure.

Abdul Gafoor Bhai, vote SDPI in APRIL for a real alternative ...

SDPI should take back thier nomination as there is a easy chance for BJP to sweep as congress and SDPI votes will divide.. SDPI should re think as they do not have enough supporters

good decision....all muslim must vote for SDPI...

in DK we have 6 lak hindu and 6 lak muslim face to face number...

rest 2 lak christ & 2 lak dalith also 1 lak unknow...

if muslim+dalit+christ unite...no one can break the chain forever...

all the best ilyas sir...

Why though! They will get around 1-2% which might be a deciding factor.

Probably, SDPI should really think about the future of the region, as well as the country, this time.

A Gatbhandan is really needed now!

Good for BJP

Here's the first phase flight plan for return of Indian nationals stranded abroad

Newsroom, May 5: Following the union government's nod, preparations are afoot to bring back Indian nationals stranded abroad from May 7 onwards.

According to sources, in the first phase from May 7- 14, the government would allow more than 60 “non-scheduled, commercial” flights to operate from about 12 countries to India to bring back 15,000 citizens. At least half of those flights will be from the Gulf region, including UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait and Oman, while the rest would bring passengers from the U.S., the U.K., Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Bangladesh.

The flights would be spread over 10 States identified as having the largest numbers to return, with Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Delhi (NCR) receiving the maximum number of flights.

A meeting held at the Ministry of Civil Aviation looked specifically at flights, mainly operated by Air India, while it awaits a final plan from countries where Indians need to be airlifted from. The first flights planned at present are from Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Riyadh and Doha, flying directly to Kozhikode and Kochi.

While the full estimate of Indians needing to return home could cross ten lakhs (a million), with more than two lakhs having registered to return from the UAE alone, officials said their return would be “prioritised and staggered”.
