Top News Live Updates: Case filed against SP chief Akhilesh Yadav, RLD's Jayant Chaudhary for violating Covid-19 and ECI guidelines

Days after Supreme Court’s observation on Nupur Sharma’s plea, the National Commission for Women (NCW) on Monday took cognizance of Samajwadi Chief Akhilesh Yadav’s tweet on suspended BJP spokesperson.

The Commission asked the Uttar Pradesh Police to take action against Akhilesh Yadav for allegedly instigating hatred and ill-will against Nupur Sharma, who had made controversial remarks against Prophet Mohammad in a TV debate.

In a letter to Uttar Pradesh DGP, the NCW chief Rekha Sharma has demanded to take immediate action against the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav under relevant provisions of law. Nupur Sharma is already facing threat to her life and the tweet of Akhilesh is a sheer instigation to the general public to assault Sharma. A fair investigation must be accomplished in a time-bound manner, she said.

The Commission has come across Akhilesh Yadav’s tweet and found that his tweet has been inciting communal disharmony between the two religious groups which is extremely condemnable, Rekha Sharma said.

NCW has also sought a fair and time-bound investigation in the matter. Action taken must be apprised within 3 days, the NCW chief sought in her letter to UP police.

Last week, the Supreme Court had observed that Nupur Sharma and her loose tongue had set the country on fire. She single-handedly responsible for igniting emotions across the country and for that she needed to apologise, the top court had also said.

Rejecting Nupur Sharma’s plea to club all the FIRs registered against her in many states for her alleged derogatory remarks on Prophet Mohammed, to Delhi for investigation, the Supreme Court had said that this lady is single-handedly responsible for what is happening in the country.

During the hearing, when Singh told the bench that Sharma is facing threat to her life, Justice Surya Kant had replied tha she has a threat or she has become a security threat?

Not only the face but the body should also apologise and should also be punished for disturbing the harmony of the country, the SP chief had tweeted on Friday after the Supreme Court’s observation on Nupur sharma.

Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore said he was confident the BJP will win with huge majority in Rajasthan ahead of counting of votes in Rajasthan. He said the fight today is between the massive governance of Prime minister Narendra Modi and the misgovernance of the Congress party.

The Congress party will try to return to power again. The BJP’s election campaign will be focused on an anti incumbency wave in the state. Rathore said the fact that people of the state had come out in large numbers to vote meant that they wanted to bring a change. According to exit polls the BJP have a slight edge over the ruling Congress party in Rajasthan. He said there won’t be a close contest and the BJP will win the elections with a vast majority.

Rajyavardhan Rathore said the party leadership will announce who will be the chief minister after the results have been declared. He said everything comes at the right time. He said once the results are out the party leadership will take the decision at the right time.

The campaign has been intense on both sides. The BJP had pulled all stops in line with an established election template as senior ministers had been deployed and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Congress had followed a grassroots campaign with frequent appearances by its central leaders.

Chief minister Ashok Gehlot said he was confident that he had beaten the jinx on the fortunes of the party in power. The BJP rode high on the trend and the power of brand Modi. Eight of the nine exit polls gave the BJP a comfortable, if not a strong victory. The aggregrate indicated that the BJP may get 104 seats and Congress 86. But like the difference in the price of cooking gas they are offering- The Congress party – Rs 500 and the BJP’s Rs 450: the gap is marginal.
