The deceased Ramdeo Sah (75), who was working at Rizwan’s hosiery outlet in Patna, had stayed with the Muslim family for 25 years and met his end discharging his duty there.

With the help of many Muslim neighbours, Rizwan and his family members have cremated Sah at Gulbi Ghat in Patna. Sah came to Mr Rizwan’s shop more than two decades ago and he was impressed by his simplicity, the locals said.

Sah had reached Rizwan’s shop almost 25 years back in search of odd jobs. He was also hungry when he met first with Rizwan who first served him food and then employed him as an accountant at his cloth shop.

Since then, Sah became a part of this Muslim family and never left him since there was none in his family.

Commenting on the ongoing communal clashes across the country, Rizwan said that this is not the true nature of human beings. What is being shown on TV doesn’t depict the correct picture. When a child gets injured good people don’t ask for his or her religion but provide first aid, he said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday lashed out at the Congress-JMM coalition over its corruption, saying the alliance is busy selling rivers, streams, and mountains in the state, adding their leaders, in fact, have built houses by smuggling sand. PM Modi alleged that they are taking bribes even for birth and death certificates.

Addressing the rally in Jharkhand’s Gumala, the Prime Minister said: “This is your money, you are its owner and Modi will not let your money be looted.” He added that “those who have looted will have to return it and spend their lives in jail” once his party comes to power in the state.

JMM-Congress have nothing to do with the issue of the people, they are filling their coffers, Modi said.

Hitting out at the alliance, PM Modi said: “You have seen the mountains of notes of the JMM and Congress leaders and ministers. I have been a Chief Minister and even become a Prime Minister, but I have never seen such huge mountains of notes in my life. I saw such mountains for the first time on TV. So many notes came out that the machines got tired of counting them.”

“If you divide into castes then the strength of the tribals will diminish. That’s why I say – if we stay united, we will be safe,” he reiterated his statement targeting the Congress party.

Congress chief Kharge slams PM Modi over his red book remarks, says necessary to enroll him in primary school again

On the Prime Minister and BJP equating a red book of the Constitution with urban Naxalism, Kharge said Modi gave a similar copy in 2017 to then President Ram Nath Kovind.

Launching a scathing attack against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Sunday said it was necessary to enroll Modi in a primary school again for his remarks on the red book of the Constitution.

Addressing a press conference after launching the Opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi ‘s (MVA) manifesto for Maharashtra Assembly elections, Kharge displayed a red book of the Constitution and said it was not blank as was being projected by PM Modi and his party BJP.

”It is necessary to enroll him in a primary school again,” the Congress chief said. Kharge said the red handbook was only used for reference and it was not the entire Constitution.

Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut, NCP-SCP MP Supriya Sule, Maharashtra Congress President Nana Patole, Congress National General Secretary KC Venugopal and other leaders of the MVA alliance were also present during the launch of the MVA manifesto.

On the Prime Minister and BJP equating a red book of the Constitution with urban Naxalism, Kharge said Modi gave a similar copy in 2017 to then President Ram Nath Kovind.

The Congress chief also noted that his party’s demand for a caste census is not to divide people, but to understand how various communities are placed at present so that they can get more benefits.

Notably, PM Modi on Saturday termed the act as a testament to Congress’ disregard and hate for Ambedkar and said the red book of the Constitution which was flaunted and distributed by the grand old party contained nothing.

PM Modi was referring to the recent event led by Lok Sabha LoP and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in Maharashtra’s Nagpur, where reportedly the books with ‘Constitution of India’ written on the front, containing blank pages except for the preamble on the first page, were distributed.

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis recently alleged that Gandhi was trying to seek support from urban Naxals and anarchists by holding a red book in his hand.

Gandhi, who has been demanding quite times for a nationwide caste census and has been displaying an abridged version of the Constitution in a red cover during his rallies, has promised a caste census in Maharashtra also. The Congress ruled Telangana kicked off the caste census in the state on Saturday.

The Congress leader described the MVA’s manifesto as all-inclusive and participatory. Amongst several promises for Maharashtra, Kharge emphasised giving Rs 4,000 monthly stipend to youth seeking jobs.

He said the health insurance scheme of Rs 25 lakh which was started by former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot in the state will be implemented in Maharashtra as well.  

“We have decided to do a caste census and we will remove the 50% ceiling on reservation, in line with Tamil Nadu,” he asserted.

Maharashtra elections: Amit Shah says Uddhav Thackeray siding with those who insulted Balasaheb, Savarkar

Shah claimed that the BJP’s resolutions are “etched in stone,” affirming that whether at the Centre or in the state, the BJP is resolute in fulfilling its commitments when elected.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah asserted on Sunday that Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray was aligning himself with the Congress, whose leaders have shown disrespect towards Balasaheb Thackeray, the founder of Shiv Sena, and the Hindutva ideologue Veer Savarkar.

After launching the BJP’s manifesto for the upcoming Maharashtra Assembly elections scheduled for November 20, Shah emphasised that his party would not permit religion-based reservations in the country.

He criticised the Opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA)—which includes Shiv Sena (UBT), Congress, and the NCP led by Sharad Pawar—for lacking credibility, stating, “The Maha Vikas Aghadi’s trust has gone below ‘pataal’ (the depths); it has no credibility.”

According to him, the ruling Mahayuti coalition, comprising the BJP, the Shiv Sena under Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, and Ajit Pawar’s NCP, is better positioned against the MVA, whose promises he claimed insult ideology and promote appeasement.

Shah noted that the Congress has failed to honor its pre-election commitments in states where it currently governs. He challenged Thackeray to ask Congress leader Rahul Gandhi to express admiration for Veer Savarkar and to find any Congress member willing to honor Balasaheb Thackeray.

“It would be beneficial for the people of Maharashtra to understand who is proposing an alliance government amidst such contradictions,” he remarked.

The BJP’s manifesto, referred to as ‘Sankalp Patra,’ is designed to reflect the aspirations of the people of Maharashtra. Shah highlighted a demand from an organisation of Ulemas for minority reservations, which was acknowledged by state Congress president Nana Patole.

He stated, “I want to tell Uddhav Thackeray that you are sitting with individuals who oppose the Ram Mandir, the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, the Uniform Civil Code, the Waqf board amendments, and who insult Savarkar.”

He cautioned that failure to enact Waqf board amendments could lead to the declaration of personal properties as Waqf by the board.

Shah raised a crucial question regarding whether the citizens of Maharashtra support allocating reservations meant for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Other Backward Classes to Muslims, asserting that the Constitution does not sanction reservations based on religion. He noted that Congress promised such reservations before assuming power, urging the public to recognise this discrepancy.

He also remarked that for the first time since the abrogation of Article 370, which granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir, the J&K Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah, took an oath on the Constitution designed by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar.

Shah claimed that the BJP’s resolutions are “etched in stone,” affirming that whether at the Centre or in the state, the BJP is resolute in fulfilling its commitments when elected.

Continuing his attack, Shah labeled the MVA’s election proposals as ideologically shallow, stating, “I want to tell Sharad Pawar that his attempts to fabricate a false mandate will not succeed now.”

He challenged Pawar to detail his contributions to Maharashtra during his tenure as a minister in the UPA government, reiterating that Maharashtra has been a leader in various fields.

Shah expressed confidence that the people of Maharashtra are inclined to grant their mandate to the Mahayuti once again. State Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, present at the event, described the BJP’s manifesto as a blueprint for a developed Maharashtra contributing to a developed India.
