In a fresh embarrassment to Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led NDA government at the Centre, Giriraj Singh, Minister for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, has been booked in a case of land grabbing along with 32 others in Danapur of Patna district.

On the direction of the Patna Civil court an FIR (NO: 54 / 2018) was lodged at the Danapur police station, on the outskirts of Patna against Mr. Singh, who is a BJP MP from Nawada in Bihar, allegedly for forcibly grabbing over 2 acres of land. Along with Mr. Singh 32 other persons too have been named in the case.

Resident of Asopur village in Danapur Ram Narayan Prasad had, earlier, petitioned in the SC/ST special court that 33 persons, including Mr. Singh had conspired to grab his over 2 acres of land for sale and purchase.

Danapur police station officer-in-charge Sandeep Kumar said that a case has been lodged against 33 persons, including Giriraj Singh under various sections of IPC and SC / ST as well.

Meanwhile, Opposition Rashtriya Janata Dal has demanded Mr. Singh’s resignation.

“Will Bihar CM Nitish Kumar or his deputy in the cabinet Sushil Kumar Modi ask Giriraj Singh to resign from his post…he is the same Giriraj Singh from whose house crores of rupees were seized after he had become minister in the Narendra Modi cabinet”, charged leader of opposition, Tejaswi Yadav.

Mr. Yadav also questioned the stance taken by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and his deputy Sushil Modi on the issue. “Would he now break the coalition with the BJP or, he would resign from his post on the call of his conscienc?. Why is country’s biggest afwah mian (rumor master), Sushil Modi keeping quiet on the issue of Giriraj Singh?”, asked the RJD leader.

Why only this hate monger.  You will find many many more.  95 percent of bjp ministers are looters/decoits/killers/goondas etc etc.  One looter in karnataka is trying to come back to power once again.  Will SC take any action on this land grabber.   SC should seize all his bank accounts and properties.  there might me many properties registered in his close relative names.  SC should investigate this and make it open to public.  However, we should not expect any comments from our non-resident PM.

New Delhi, May 10: The Delhi government has asked district magistrates to release 2,446 Tablighi Jamaat members from quarantine centres and ensure that they do not stay in any other place except their homes.

The district magistrates will explore the possibility of sending those Tablighi members, who belong to other states, in buses to their designated places in accordance with social distancing norms and other protocols, DDMA Special CEO K S Meena said in a letter to deputy commissioners (administration).

As man as 567 foreign attendees of the congregation held in Delhi's Nizamuddin area in March, will be handed over to the police, Meena said.

"They (foreign Jamaat attendees) will be handed over to police in connection with several violations like visa violation," a government official said on Saturday.

Delhi Home Minister Satyendar Jain had recently ordered the release of Tablighi members who have completed their required quarantine period in centres and tested negative for COVID-19.

"Out of such people belonging to Delhi, who could be released as per prescribed guidelines should be issued passes to travel from the quarantine centres.

"Under no circumstances, the aforesaid persons should be allowed to stay in any other places including mosques," Meena said in the letter.

In respect of those Tablighi members belonging to other states, it should be ensured by the nodal officer and the area ACP that such people reach their place of residence, he also said.

"The DC should also inform the respective resident commissioner of their states in respect of each and every movement of such persons from Delhi," the Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) Special CEO said.

Thousands of Tablighi Jamaat members had been taken out of its Markaz (centre) in Nizamuddin, where they had gathered for a religious congregation, and quarantined as the area became a major hotspot after a number of members tested positive for coronavirus.

On March 31, the Delhi Police's Crime Branch had lodged an FIR against seven people, including Maulana Saad Kandhalvi, on a complaint by Station House Officer, Nizamuddin, for holding the congregation.
