Husband 'abuses' SP chief Mulayam Singh Yadav, wife loses Lok Sabha ticket

March 8, 2014

Mulayam_Singh_YadavLucknow, Mar 8: Samajwadi Party's Agra candidate Sarika Singh Baghel was stripped of the party ticket because of her husband Devendra Baghel's undoing. In a video grab with a local news channel, Devendra was seen using unsavoury words against none other that the SP chief. Expectedly, the clipping reached the party headquarters and Sarika lost her ticket. Devendra was sacked from the party.

The clipping shows that referring to SP chief Mulayam Singh Yadav, Devendra says: "Agar Budhdhe ko pradhan mantri banana hai to chalwa do, warna matti kharaab ho jayegi tumhari" (If the old man (Mulayam) is to become the prime minister, allow the auto's through the no entry route else you will land in trouble). Though uttered in a fit of rage, these words of Baghel have cost him and his wife dear. Sarika has now been replaced by Maharaj Singh Dhanghar as its official candidate.

Known for giving a damn to the law of the land, Devendra has made headlines for all the wrong reasons for the past six months. He was accused of grabbing a house and influencing the Agra police to let off crooks. But what eventually proved the last straw for him was his heated exchange with an officer of the police recently.

Reports said Dewendra was miffed over the No Entry restriction for auto-rickshaws on MG Road and wanted the Agra police to lift this ban ever since the local auto rickshaw operator's union approached him with this demand. After his repeated telephonic requests to senior police officers failed to yield results, Dewendra reached the office of SP traffic Ashok Tripathi to seek a clarification on non-compliance of his "requests". Allegations are that when the police officer refused to entertain his demand of lifting the no entry restrictions, Dewendra lost his cool.

In a fit of rage he allegedly threatened to get the officer stripped of his uniform for his audacity to say no to him. When the officer asked him to mind his language, all hell broke loose. A fuming Dewendra then went on to threaten the officer saying that he would talk to chief minister Akhilesh Yadav on the issue. When the officer explained that it would be illegal to allow autos through No Entry, Dewendra yelled: "The old man will have to listen to us if he wants to become the prime minister. He will have to meet our demands, legitimate or otherwise."

New Delhi, May 26: The in-fighting among the residents of housing societies over feeding of stray dogs is nowhere near ending, with yet another attack on a pregnant Russian woman again in the national capital region this time in Noida.

The Russian woman residing in a condominium in Noida's Sector 71 was allegedly attacked by two men for feeding foundling canines inside the complex.

"We have initiated an inquiry and a case has been registered against the men for voluntarily causing hurt and criminal intimidation," Amit Kumar Singh, Station House Officer of Phase 3 police station told IANS.

The police said that the victim is married to an Indian man and they live in that society.

The issue was raked up on social media by one of the residents of the society. Her post had even solicited a response and help from the Noida Police Commissioner.

Kaveri Rana Bharadwaj wrote, "Mob led by Vikas Sharma, and Mr. Chauhan beat up a pregnant woman in Jagriti Apartment, Sector 71 Noida. Request you to immediately arrest these men and provide security to the scared woman!"

When contacted, a member of the Resident Welfare Association (RWA) of the society said that the allegations levied by her are false and that he, along with a handful of other people, had only asked her not to feed the dogs.

Vikas Sharma divulged, "The woman was called at the society gate by the members of the RWA. When she was asked not to feed the street dogs, she became aggressive, started fighting with the residents of the society and even pushed a 70-year-old woman. The complaint that she registered against us is false. We did not even touch her."

He added that there are 70-80 street dogs in the society who have lately become extremely aggressive. "The lady was asked not to feed them as people feared stepping out of their houses and getting bitten."

In another incident on Tuesday, a Greater Noida man beat up a Chinese woman for allegedly fostering a stray dog which bit his canine.

Greater Noida District Commissioner of Police Rajesh Kumar Singh told IANS that the man named Amar Pratap Singh of ATS Paradiso misbehaved with the woman after his dog was bit by another dog who she used to feed every day.

The incident happened in the wee hours of the day when the accused took his dog out for a walk. "After his dog was bitten, in a fit of rage, he misbehaved with the Chinese woman." A Non-Cognizable Report (NCR) has been registered and no arrests have been made so far, the police said.

New Delhi, Aug 3: Congress leader and Rajya Sabha MP Digvijaya Singh on Monday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should defer the foundation stone laying ceremony for Ram temple from August 5 as it will be an "inauspicious hour" for the event.

"I request Modi Ji again that the inauspicious occasion of August 5 (for foundation stone laying ceremony for Ram temple) should be deferred. The construction of Ram temple is to begin after hundreds of years of struggle and PM Modi should leave his stubbornness that may cause an obstruction in the process," Digvijaya tweeted (translated from Hindi).

The Congress leader went on to claim that several BJP leaders were falling sick due to COVID-19 as the result of ignoring the norms of Sanatan Dharma. "The results of ignoring the norms of Sanatan Dharma are - all priests of Ram temple tested positive for COVID-19, death of UP Minister Kamal Rani Varun due to corona, UP BJP chief tested COVID-19 positive, Home Minister Amit Shah tested positive for COVID-19, Madhya Pradesh CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan tested positive for COVID-19, Karnataka CM Yediyurappa tested positive for COVID-19," he added.

"Lord Ram is the epicentre of faith for crores of Hindus and the PM should not play with norms and traditions of Sanatan Dharma established across thousands of years," he added.

The Congress leader further questioned the urgency of holding the foundation stone laying event in times when COVID-19 spread is prevalent across the country.

"By laying the foundation stone for Ram temple at an inauspicious hour, how many people do you want to send to the hospital Modi Ji? Yogi Ji, please explain to Modi Ji. In your presence, why are the norms and traditions of Sanatan Dharma being broken? What is your compulsion that you are allowing this to happen?" he contended.

"One more question arises. A minister of the Uttar Pradesh government died due to coronavirus. Union Home Minister tested positive for COVID-19 and Uttar Pradesh BJP chief also tested positive. In these circumstances, whether Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister and India's Prime Minister should not be quarantined? Is being quarantined only mandated for common people? Not for Prime Minister and Chief Ministers? The time limit for quarantine is 14 days," he added.

He further said that the entire cabinet should go into quarantine otherwise they will infect the residents of Ayodhya.

"These people's religion is 'Hindutva' and not 'Sanatan Dharma'. hence they have nothing to do with Sanatan Dharma's traditions. They have broken all the norms. Now, Modi Ji will issue the muhurta and he will only lay the foundation stone," he tweeted.

The Prime Minister is scheduled to lay the foundation stone of the Ram temple in Ayodhya on August 5.

The construction of Ram temple will begin after the ceremony to lay the foundation stone in which Chief Ministers of several states, Ministers from the Union Cabinet and RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat are also likely to participate.
