Maintain Hindu fabric of the country; can solve economic issues later: Subramanian Swamy

Belagavi, Nov 8: BJP leader and controversial “economist” Subramanian Swamy has urged the government and people to give priority to Hinduism over solving economic issues of the country.

Delivering a talk on “Intellectual Terrorism” organised by Prabhudha Bharat organisation at the KLE Centenary Convention Hall recently, Swamy said that economic issues could be resolved at any time, but continuous efforts should be made in maintaining the true Hindu fabric of the country.

He claimed that he was behind the ouster of Raghuram Rajan from the RBI. He is not an economist at all. I thank the Modi government for supporting my move, he said.

‘Rahul and Sonia will be jailed’

He ridiculed Congress leaders and said AICC president Sonia Gandhi and vice-president Rahul Gandhi would go to jail soon for their involvement in several scams. It is not Indian National Congress. It is Italian Congress party, he said.

He defined intellectual terrorism as “something that makes you believe what you should not and do what you should not”.

He said he was not anti–Muslim, but expected them to live in cultural harmony with Hindus while following theological principles of the Holy Quran. Muslim women supported BJP in U.P. as it was the only party talking against triple Talaq, he said. He also said that Muslim women should be given inheritance rights to property (Interestingly, Muslim women have been enjoying the property inheritance rights since the beginning).

Kamal Haasan slammed

Swamy also criticised actor Kamal Haasan over his remarks on “Hindu terror.” He said actors were trying to enter politics in Tamil Nadu after their cinematic careers were fading.

He said there was no need to give much importance to Tipu Sultan as he had fought the British after taking money from the French, who were opposed to them. He also held socialism responsible for keeping the country backward.

Rajya Sabha member and KLE chairman Prabhakar Kore, Suresh Angadi, MP, industrialist Vijay Usalkar, Chaitanya Kulkarni of Prabuddha Bharat, and others were present.

No one including his own party takes him seriously,he is looking for some green pastures since the BJP came in to power.This statement is to please his RSS boses.Alas,no use-Modi or Shah never ever will induct him to any considerable position.

What is wrong to others is right to him. Being verbally pugnacious is integral to his personality. Promotion of Brand Swamy is essential for his survival and Twitter is an important platform for his often ludicrous comments and observations. keep Spitting Swamy!

I can say Modi is the best intelligent person in the world. And he should get business man of the year award. 

Because,

 

1. Modi made huge benefit to Paytm (paytm ceo didnt do this much profit for his company)

 

2. Modi made profit to the private agency which made/maintaning aadhar things.

3. Modi made profit to Jio

 

4. Modi made profit to big companies by implementing demonetisation and GST (same time it affected badly on small scale retailer shop)

Bengaluru, May 18: A large number of people in India are planning inter-city bus travel within a month of the lifting of travel restrictions, according to a randomised online survey of over 10,300 customers of redBus, India's largest online bus ticketing platform.

Nearly 57 per cent of the respondents are planning to travel within a month post the lockdown. However, there is a high standard of expectation on the implementation of measures to make buses safe for travel with over 79 per cent wanting deep cleaning and sanitisation of buses after every trip.

Hand sanitisers, mandatory masks and temperature screening for all passengers are next in expectations for bus travel. Over 78 per cent of the respondents want the implementation of hygienic conditions at boarding points and 70 per cent want social distancing protocols to be implemented at boarding points.

"The survey does underscore the fact that given the adherence to safety protocols, bus travel is possibly one of the safest options for travel since the number of travellers are fewer, checks can be done individually and the whole factor of pick up and drop as close to home as possible minimises the number of contacts throughout the journey," said redBus Chief Executive Officer Prakash Sangam.

In addition, online booking further reduces the number of contact points as people can book bus tickets directly from their home. Further, there is a heightened awareness of personal hygiene and safety measures which is important for the travel to be safe.

"The large number of people waiting to travel not only points to the need but also the importance it has for the revival of economic activity as very few of them would be travelling for leisure," said Sangam.

The survey also showed that passengers put a very high consideration on hygiene, sanitation and disinfection -- over 73 per cent -- and social distancing (63 per cent) and much lower consideration to traditional factors such as travel cost (22 per cent), comfort (21 per cent) and punctuality (18 per cent).

The survey was conducted among redBus customers across India. Only 5 per cent of the respondents were willing to postpone their travel to over six months while the rest had plans to travel within that period.

Bengaluru, Feb 28: The Liquefied Petroleum Gas penetration in Karnataka is 'absolutely 100 per cent' due to the Prime Minister Ujjwala Yojana, Indian Oil Corporation Karnataka Executive Director D L Pramodh said here on Friday.

In 2014, LPG penetration in the State was only 68 per cent, but after the PMUY, massive number of gas connections were given in the last five years, he said, adding, "It is absolutely 100 per cent today."

"There are 1.6 crore LPG connections out of which around 31.5 lakh -- or around 20 per cent -- come under the PMUY. The 100 per cent LPG penetration in the state will help women in rural areas to make their kitchens smokeless. Against the national average of 2.88 cylinders per family per PMUY annually, the figure is Karnataka 3.4 cylinders in Karnataka," Pramodh told reporters.

On the initiative of blending ethanol with petrol, he said it's 8.6 per cent in Karnataka, the highest comparedto other states, where it's five per cent to 5.5 per cent. The state aims to increase it to 10 per cent. By March 31, the IOC would commission the Rs 10 crore Vapour Recovery System at the Devanagonthi terminal on the city outskirts which would ensure that vapour does not go out in the air when tankers are being filled with fuel. "This is an important measure taken tominimise pollution", he said.

Pramodh also said the IOC has started mobile fuel dispensers, delivering fuels at the doorsteps.

Regarding the IOC's preparedness for Electric Vehicle charging stations, Pramodh said the Ministry of Power has given the company a target to set up 500 charging stations across India in the first phase. The IOC has already signed MoUs with NTPC, Power Grid Corporation Limited, Hyundai Motors, Tech Mahindra and Tata Power in this regard.

In Karnataka, 58 sites have been identified for setting up charging and battery swapping stations.

"Total electric vehicle charging facilities planned by IOC in Karnataka by March 31 is 34, out of which 26 will be EVcharging sites and eight battery swapping stations," Pramodh said.
