Dial 112 personnel spend crores on Diwali to create a record Forced to die in the cold: Akhilesh

BI News,Lucknow: Former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has said that it is an irony that on one hand, the BJP government is busy spending crores of rupees in making a record of grand Diwali, while on the other hand, the employees of Dial 112 sitting in Eco Garden with their demands are trying to force the girls to die in the cold. Is being cruel. Amidst the claims of a grand and divine Diwali, if the poor are seen forced to carry oil from lamps, then what can be called this shameful scene of poverty amidst divinity other than considering it as a stigma on the forehead of democracy?
He said that the BJP state government also made lofty claims of running 200 additional buses on Diwali in the name of providing relief to the public, but in reality the passengers were troubled by the lack of roadways buses at the bus stands of Gorakhpur, the home district of the Chief Minister. What kind of joke is this with those who go home on the festival of Diwali?

Akhilesh said that BJP has given nothing other than cheating the public. BJP government is the government of capitalists. The public is suffering from the brunt of inflation. Everything is expensive in the market, nothing is cheap. Salaries were not distributed on time in all government departments. Contract workers are victims of severe harassment. Not only the bonus, he has not even received his salary on time. The girls employee of Dial 112 are victims of police atrocities. She has not gone home even on Diwali. BJP should not test the patience of women power. This country is witness to the fact that women’s tears can wash away even the greatest power. No one pays attention to the plight of farmers on this festival of lights. BJP did not double the income. Dues of sugarcane farmers not paid. The youth were deceived in the name of jobs and employment. Their future is bleak. Now the public has woken up and is not going to be misled by the BJP. Not only the public, this time even the BJP people will remove the BJP. When the BJP itself is declaring the truth of BJP’s corrupt rule with tears, then what is the need for any other evidence?

Pollution matter: Don’t try to non-perform and shift burden onto SC

He said that there was no difference between the words and actions of the socialists. The development work done under the Samajwadi government brought prosperity to the people. Socialists want that such a festival should come in which not only the ghat but also the house of every poor gets illuminated.

Due to increase in the cost of agriculture, the cost price of farmers has increased. Sugarcane farmers had high hopes. This time the sugarcane price will be increased to Rs 400 per quintal, but the government has maintained silence on this, which is unfortunate.

Demonetization is the biggest corruption in the world:- Akhilesh

0

BI News, Lucknow: Former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has said that demonetization by the BJP government is the biggest corruption in the world. To compensate for the fraud and loss of Rs 15 lakh crore in the country, this government had taken the decision of demonetization as a well thought out strategy. The government deposited all the public money in banks. He took the money of the poor to fill the coffers of the rich. The Prime Minister had said that demonetization will end corruption and terrorism. Inflation will reduce. But his claim proved false. Even after demonetization, corruption did not reduce, inflation did not stop and terrorism did not end. Today, inflation, unemployment and corruption are at their peak in the country.

In the press conference organized at the state headquarters of Samajwadi Party, Akhilesh Yadav said that according to the data, even today Rs 33 lakh crore is in the cash market in the country. Even today, most people are transacting in cash instead of digital. Purchase of land and important things is being done in cash. Everyone saw that large scale cash transactions and corruption took place in the registration and purchase of lands. People from BJP were involved in the registration of lands in Ayodhya.
Supporting the demands of the women employees working in Dial 112 Response System, Akhilesh Yadav said that we will raise this demand on the very first day of the assembly session. Our first question would be why did BJP destroy Dial 112? He said that the BJP government is emotionless, heartless and visionless. She is taking advantage of poverty. The women working in Dial 112 are threatening to be fired from their jobs. Sisters and daughters are being harassed on festival days. He said that in many places profit is being earned by giving work to other companies while the working girls are left in the cold without food and water. Only the family can understand the grief of the family members. BJP government is not going to listen to anyone. Does the government not have enough budget to increase the salary of the women who help the people of the state by Rs 3,000?
He said that we assure the women employees working in Dial 112 that if the Samajwadi government is formed, we will increase their salaries double as per their demand. If their demand is Rs 3 thousand then we will double it to Rs 6 thousand.

Lawyers should not wear uniform outside the court: High Court

Akhilesh said that in the Samajwadi government, we had given the West Response System UP Dial 100 to the Uttar Pradesh Police. For that, police officers were sent to New York and Singapore. Took help from Prof. Venkat. After getting complete information about the way New York Police works and making a response system as per Uttar Pradesh, it was given to the police so that the people of the state can get help from the police as soon as possible in case of any incident.
Yadav said that we had created the Dial 100 system at a time when the police did not have vehicles and petrol and diesel were not available for commuting. At such a time, the police was facilitated by creating an excellent response system. The BJP government ruined the dial 100 police service by making it 112. Today the police has become the most corrupt. Every police station is sold. The BJP government wants incidents like Deoria in the entire state.
He said that in the same way the BJP government has cheated the youth by bringing Agniveer Yojana. The poverty of the poor is being taken advantage of. Agniveer Yojana is a half-baked job. Whenever Samajwadi Party gets a chance in future, we will end Agniveer Yojana and provide full employment in the army like before.

Lawyers should not wear uniform outside the court: High Court

BI News, Lucknow: Lucknow Bench of Allahabad High Court has issued an order regarding the lawyers of Uttar Pradesh. Do not cooperate with land mafia and lawyers involved in land matters by wearing uniform. The Lucknow bench of the High Court has ordered the UP Bar Council to issue guidelines.

This order was given by the division bench of Justice Sangeeta Chandra and Justice NK Johri on the petition of local advocate Shubhanshu Singh. The petitioner said that he practices in Civil Court, Lucknow. On September 21, 2023, some of the same advocates beat and robbed him, for which he lodged an FIR.

The petitioner also says that he has requested the District Judge to preserve the CCTV footage related to the incident.


While hearing the petition, the court has summoned the concerned ADCP to discuss the situation. Also asked the District Judge, Lucknow, what action did he take on the request of the petitioner? During the hearing, the fact also came before the court that in land disputes etc., some advocates reach the spot wearing uniform and try to give the impression of being lawyers. On this, the court ordered the Bar Council to issue guidelines in this regard. After this order of the High Court, the way has now been cleared to stop the arbitrariness of such lawyers. Besides, the dominance of black coats will also be curbed. The court has fixed the next hearing of the case on November 28.

Rampur Public School and SP office sealed

BI News, Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh government has taken another strict action against SP leader on Friday. National General Secretary of Samajwadi Party Mohammad Azam Khan is currently lodged in Sitapur jail. Rampur administration has sealed Rampur Public School and SP office run by Jauhar Trust. The administration has taken this action against the trust after the lease given to Jauhar Trust was canceled by the government. During the SP government, the Education Department building located at Topkhana Road was given on lease to Azam Khan’s Jauhar Trust for Rs 100 per year. BJP MLA Akash Saxena had complained about this to the government. During investigation the complaint was found to be true.

Jauhar Trust is accused of violating the terms and conditions by opening a private Rampur Public School and opening an SP office in the name of Darul Awam in the same building. When DM Ravindra Kumar Mandad sent this report to the government, recently the Yogi cabinet canceled the lease in favor of Jauhar Trust. After this, the administration gave notice to Johar Trust to vacate the building and land and after the notice period ended, on Friday, police and administration officials along with education department officials arrived and sealed Rampur Public School and SP office. During this time some SPs gathered and they were thrown out.

ADM Administration Lalta Prasad Shakya said, the lease of Johar Trust has been canceled by the government. In compliance with this, Rampur Public School and SP office were vacated on Friday and freed from the illegal occupation of Johar Trust. The Secondary Education Department has taken possession of its land and building.
Whereas SP leaders say that the SP office has nothing to do with that land and building. Still, the administration has sealed the SP office while committing atrocities. The administration should tell why it took this action?

Pollution matter: Don’t try to non-perform and shift burden onto SC

Supreme Court to Delhi govt, the court has nothing to do with the odd-even scheme

BI News,New Delhi : Don’t try to non-perform and shift the burden onto the court, the Supreme Court told the Delhi government on Friday, making clear that the decision on introducing the odd-even car rationing scheme in the national capital has to be taken by the city government and the court will not issue any direction on it.
While hearing a matter on the worsening air quality in the Delhi-National Capital Region, a bench headed by Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul said the court had nothing to do with the odd-even scheme and it had never said that it should also apply to taxis entering Delhi from the adjoining states.


During the hearing on debilitating air pollution in Delhi-NCR on November 7, the apex court had questioned the effectiveness of the scheme following which the city’s Environment Minister Gopal Rai said it will be implemented only after the apex court has heard the matter on Friday and issued an order. The top court is seized of a plea filed in 1985 by environmentalist M C Mehta on air pollution. Several issues concerning pollution have arisen during the hearing of Mehta’s petition.
The Delhi government had earlier announced it will implement the odd-even scheme a day after Diwali from November 13 to 20, when air pollution is likely to peak.
On Friday, the apex court said it had flagged the odd-even issue at the last hearing after an advocate, assisting it as an amicus curiae, said the odd-even plan does not actually help reduce air pollution.


The counsel representing the Delhi government said taxis from adjoining states were required to be allowed into Delhi as commuting will become a major problem otherwise. Lakhs of people working in Delhi live in cities like Noida and Gurugram in Uttar Pradesh and Haryana.
“I am agreeing with you. We never said that. Don’t try to non-perform and shift the burden onto the court. This is what is happening,” Justice Kaul observed.
“What you have to do, you have to do. We are not here to tell you what to do,” the bench told the lawyer.
