March 21, 2016

New Delhi, Mar 21: Reservation for the Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribes and the marginalised in the country will remain untouched, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said when he delivered the Ambedkar Memorial Lecture after he laid the foundation stone for a state-of-the-art memorial for the Dalits' rights crusader in New Delhi.

Highlights

Babasaheb was the voice of the marginalised. He is a Vishwa Manav. Only talking about him with respect to India is injustice to him: PM

The way Sardar Patel worked for Political unification, Baba Saheb Ambedkar worked for social unification: PM Modi

Few people know about the reason why Dr. Ambedkar had to resign from ministry? This part of history is either forgotten or diluted: PM

When issue of equal rights to women came up, Babasaheb was clear that if women don't get equal rights I cant be a part of the ministry: PM

Baba Saheb Ambedkar was as iconic as Martin Luther King who fought for the oppressed: PM Modi

Baba Saheb was messiah of all labourers, he was the architect of foundation labour laws: PM Modi

There is a bill oB waterways in Parliament but let me tell you this vision is of Dr. Ambedkar. He believed in India's maritime strength: PM

Baba Saheb Ambedkar was as iconic as Martin Luther King who fought for the oppressed: PM Modi

Baba Saheb was messiah of all labourers; he was the architect of foundation labour laws: PM Modi

When Vajpayee ji became PM, sections started saying reservation will go. He was PM for two terms nothing of that sort happened. Nothing has ever happened to the reservation for Dalits, tribals, where we are in power but still this lies is spread to mislead. This is a right that nobody can snatch: PM speaks on reservations for SC, ST and marginalised communities: Modi

I have got an opportunity to fulfil Baba Saheb's dream. He left us in 1956. Today, after 60 years, a memorial is being set up: PM Modi

60 years have passed! I don't know how we can explain this, but we have had to wait for 60 years for this: PM Modi

New Delhi, Jan 5: Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Sunday sàid it was "shameful" that Sadaf Jafar, SR Darapuri and Pavan Rao were arrested by the Uttar Pradesh Police for violence without any evidence against them.

He also said that it was a shocking admission by the police that there is no evidence of their involvement.

"Sadaf Jafar, S R Darapuri and Pavan Rao Ambedkar released on bail after police ADMITTED no evidence of their involvement in violence. Shocking admission," he said on Twitter.

"If that were so, why did the police arrest them in the first place? And how did the Magistrate remand them to custody without looking at the evidence," he asked.
"The law says 'find evidence, then arrest'. The reality is 'first arrest, then search for evidence'. Shameful," Chidambaram tweeted.

Idukki, Aug 8: Nine more bodies have been recovered from the landslide ravaged Pettimudi near Munnar in Idukki on Saturday. With this the death toll in the tragedy reached 26. Around 40 are feared to be still trapped under the debris or washed away.

The rescue operation by NDRF and Fire and Rescue Services that was stopped by Friday evening due to poor light and bad weather resumed by Saturday morning.

Horrifying scene prevailed in the area as relatives of the missing people screamed around in search of their beloved ones. As it is nearly 48 hours since the incident happened, the chances of recovering missing persons alive from the debris is becoming bleak. Three of the bodies recovered on Saturday could not be identified till evening.

Kerala Revenue Minster E Chandrasekharan, who visited the area on Saturday, said that search operation would be carried out until all the missing are recovered.

It was by around 11.30 pm on Thursday that landslide had hit the Nayamakkad estate of Kannan Devan Hills and Plantations. Settlement clusters of plantation workers where 83 persons were staying were reduced to debris as the huge rocks came bulldozing. Five of the residents were reported to be not in the spot while the mishap occured.

Meanwhile, heavy rains led to floods at many parts of the state. Red alert has been issued at Idukki, Malappuram and Wayanad districts for Sunday also. A total of 11,446 persons of 3,530 families were shifted to relief camps across the state, of which major chunk is at Wayanad.

Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan said that water level at most dams is increasing swiftly.
