Nirav, Lalit, Narendra… Why do all thieves have Modi surname, asks Rahul

Chitradurga, Apr 14: Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Saturday launched a blistering attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging that he extended “undue favours to his industrialist friends,” who looted the country.

Addressing an election rally in Kolar on Saturday, Mr. Gandhi alleged that Mr. Modi had stolen money from the pockets of shopkeepers, farmers, traders and the poor and given it to the likes of Nirav Modi, Lalit Modi, Mehul Choksi, Vijay Mallya, and others who fled the country.

Referring to the Rafale issue, he said: “100% chowkidar is a chor” and alleged that the Prime Minister had stolen Rs. 30,000 crore and gifted it to his “thief friend” Anil Ambani. He [Mr. Modi] is leading the team of chors (thieves), Mr. Gandhi alleged.

“I have a question. Why do all thieves have Modi as their surnames, be it Nirav Modi, Lalit Modi or Narendra Modi? We don’t know how many more such Modis will come out,” he said.

“When we announced NYAY (Nyuntam Aay Yojana), the face of the chowkidar [a reference to Mr. Modi] changed. He asked where will money come from to implement NYAY. I’m telling you Modiji, the money for NYAY will come from your friend Anil Ambani,” he said.

“There has been no action taken against business leaders Anil Ambani and Nirav Modi, who took crores as loan and did not pay back. But farmers are jailed when they cannot pay back their loans. Anil Ambani’s money will be distributed to the poorest of the nation,” he said.

The Congress chief promised that the party would deposit Rs. 3.6 lakh in the bank accounts of poor women in five years if the party comes to power.

In Chitradurga

Speaking in similar vein in Chitradurga, Mr. Gandhi said that Mr. Modi was the chowkidar of just a few capitalists in the country.

He alleged that in the last five years, the chowkidar’s government had waived over Rs. 3.5 lakh crore-worth loans of top businessmen, instead of taking action against big defaulters and helping poor farmers in distress.

Terming the present Lok Sabha election as an ideological fight, Mr. Gandhi said they had to choose between five years of “anyay” and next five years of NYAY. “The choice for the people is now between next five years of hatred, divisive nature and conspiracy of BJP or five years of love, development and brotherhood of the Congress,” he said.

Bengaluru, Jul 28: After the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) reduced the syllabi for Classes 9 to 12 due to COVID-19 pandemic, the Karnataka government has followed the suit. The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapters on legendary south Indian rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent. 

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed. 

The trimmed textbooks uploaded on the website of the Department of State Education Research and Training (DSERT) by Karnataka state Textbook Society revealed removal of chapters on Tipu Sultan for the seventh grade.

Justifying the decision, officials said, "students study similar chapters in Class 6 and more in the 10th grade." Yet another senior official from the Text Book Society said, "Trimming does not mean we have removed half of the syllabus from textbooks. It is only keeping in mind the repetition we have condensed the chapters. In case students study about a particular dynasty in higher grades, then the same had been removed from lower grades."

A few months ago, there was an uproar over dropping of content on Tipu Sultan and MLAs from the ruling BJP also demanded the same and petitioned to the Chief Minister. Even an expert committee led by Prof Baraguru Ramachandrappa suggested to not drop any content on the historic figure. However, the department still decided to drop lessons from one of the classes while keeping the syllabus short for the next 120 active academic days.

Earlier this month, a controversy had erupted over the CBSE's decision to omit topics like federalism, secularism, citizenship, etc while reducing the syllabus for Classes 9 to 12. The education board had issued a detailed clarification later, stating that topics claimed to be dropped "are either being covered by the rationalised syllabus or in the Alternative Academic Calendar of NCERT".

"The rationalisation of syllabus up to 30 per cent has been undertaken by the Board for nearly 190 subjects of class 9 to 12 for the academic session 2020-21 as a one-time measure only. The objective is to reduce the exam stress of students due to the prevailing health emergency situation and prevent learning gaps," it said.

Last week, the Congress in Uttar Pradesh expressed its concern over 'deliberate and systematic' deletions of chapters related to the freedom struggle and the party's role in it from the Class 10-12 syllabi of the Secondary Education Board.
