Bengaluru, Jan 31: Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) observed Jan 31 (Tuesday) as Black Day across the country in wake of Central Government's dictation of destructive demonetization, its subsequent failure, ill-effects and continuation of miserable plight even after 50 days. On account of the day, the party held protest demonstration and formed a human chain at Indian Express Circle in Bengaluru.

Addressing the protest the SDPI national gen. secretary Elyas Mohammed Thumbey said “Since the day the BJP Government came to power at the Centre, has been busy implementing anti-policies which have ill-effects on people's lives and with rhetoric have continuously been imposing cultural and political fascism. On the eve of 8 November Prime Minister Modi had pub a ban on notes of Rs. 1,000 and Rs. 500 without any prior-notice. This is not only an attack on the fundamental rights of citizens but is like instating anEconomic Emergency' in the country.

The reasons BJP Government put before the nation with respect to enforcing demonetization have all proved to be ridiculous theories. With such an annihilative move, was there a need to push the public into the den of troubles? The BJP which was seen opposing black-money is now seen plunged steeply in the dark abode. During the 2014 Parliamentary elections, the political parties have spent over 30,000 crores of which a major part was spent on Modi's extravagant propaganda. BJP would have declared its own sources of income and pressurized all other parties too to disclose the same and brought the political parties under the ambit of Right To Information (RTI Act.) had the BJP was so serious about the issue of black money.

The demonetization has pushed our country into an economic emergency. Farmers, contractors, businessmen, labourers/workers, etc. have all been bearing the brunt of the destructive move by the Central Government. About 5 crore workers have lost jobs, business economy has touched depths and the country's GDP is crumbling every day. The government has not only compelled the citizenry to deposit their savings but has also ceased their withdrawals limits, snatching away their fundamental rights.”

State President Abdul Hannan, in his address during the protest said, “With the announcement of demonetization, more than 60 rules were slapped within a period of 40 days pushing common people in to anxiety and trouble, causing economic emergency in the country. All like-minded organizations and individuals to launch a joint struggle so as not to let the dictatorship prevail in a democratic system.” he called upon.

The program is being participated by national gen. secretary Afsar Pasha, CPI (ML)'s S. Balan and Shankar, SDPI state secretary Akram Hasan, state treasurer Shaik Siraj, Bangalore district gen. secretary Mohammed Shariff, BBMP corporator Mujahid Pasha, district committee member H.M Gangappa with party leaders and heads of other organizations.

New Delhi, Apr 26: The Centre will bring back the Indian citizens stranded abroad due to the ban on arrival of international passenger aircraft, only if the respective states they belong to agree to allow them to come back home and make necessary arrangements to quarantine them after their return.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has started consultations with the State Governments on bringing back the Indians, who got stranded in the United States, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Canada and many other foreign countries due to the ban on arrival of international passenger aircraft to any airport in the country. The decision on facilitating their return to the country would be taken after getting feedback on preparedness of the States and the Union Territory to receive them following all required health precautions, Cabinet Secretary Rajiv Gauba said.

Gauba on Saturday had a video-conference with the Chief Secretaries of all States and Union Territories to review the implementation of the restrictions on travel and transport as well as the lockdown imposed across the country to contain the COVID-19 pandemic.

Though the Government earlier either evacuated or facilitated the return of nearly 28000 Indians from a number of foreign countries affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, it almost stopped doing so after the ban on arrival of international passenger aircraft was enforced on March 23 in the wake of the spurt in the number of COVID-19 cases in India.

Thousands of Indian students, tourists, professionals and others are stranded around the world, including in the countries, where respective governments had imposed lockdowns to contain the pandemic. They have been desperately requesting the government on social media to evacuate them.

Tumkur, Jun 2: Karnataka Agriculture Minister BC Patil on Monday said that state will not be affected due to locust swarm as it has moved to other states.

"There will be no effect as locust insects diverted to other states after they came from Pakistan. We were also worried and were prepared to face it, luckily we will not be affected by insects," he said.

Locust is a type of grasshoppers and moves in large numbers and devastates crops. Several parts of Rajasthan including Ganganagar have reported locust attacks.

There is a prediction of another attack in June this year.

Bengaluru, May 13: Former chief minister and senior Congress leader Siddaramaiah on Wednesday called the measures announced by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman as 'disastrous' and said it is 'non-existent' in terms of benefits to poor migrants, labourers, contract employees and farmers.

"The first set of measures announced by @FinMinIndia @nsitharaman, after 8 PM speech by @narendramodi, is disastrous & non-existent in terms of benefits to poor migrants, labourers, contract employees, farmers, etc," Siddaramaiah said in a tweet.

The Congress leader said most of the intended benefits may not reach the end recipient.

This comes a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a Rs 20 lakh crore special economic package to revive the COVID-19 hit economy.

"The contribution by the government for the schemes announced are mostly notional and less of actuals and the devil lies in the detail," the Congress leader said in another tweet.

After Sitharaman announced support measures for MSMEs, Siddaramaiah said, "The credit infusion to MSMEs may help them clear dues to vendors but it is doubtful if they shall utilise the credit available to pay their labourers & to prevent job cuts. @FinMinIndia should have taken measures to pay part of the salaries to the employees in MSMEs."

Further questioning the Centre on 'ignoring the spending for boosting consumption', Siddaramaiah said, "The government is interested in capital infusion in the form of credits but totally ignorant of the actual spending that needs to be done to boost consumption. How can credit be considered as government spending?"

Siddaramaiah said the next set of measures should benefit the marginalised sections.

"Will be looking forward to next set of measures & I hope it will be something to benefit the marginalised sections. Direct benefits to the poorest sections will help them survive this pandemic. COVID-19 fight should not be another perception battle but a real one," he added in another tweet.

Sitharaman earlier announced Rs 3 lakh crore collateral-free automatic loans for businesses, including MSMEs.

Besides this, she also stated that to provide stressed MSMEs with equity support, the government will facilitate the provision of Rs 20,000 crore as subordinate debt.
