Petition Submitted to Ensure Smooth Implementation of PM Vishwakarma Yojana in Jogulamba Gadwal
Gadwal: Former district BJP president Ramachandra Reddy today submitted a formal petition to District Industrial General Manager Ramalingeshwar Goud, urging effective implementation of the Pradhan Mantri Vishwakarma Yojana in Jogulamba Gadwal district headquarters. The petition highlighted several challenges being faced by beneficiaries of the scheme in the district. Under the central government's Vishwakarma Yojana, various traditional artisans and craftsmen have registered online in Jogulamba Gadwal district. Some beneficiaries have even received training certificates. However, many are encountering severe difficulties in accessing financial assistance from banks, which is a crucial component of the scheme. In addition, complaints have emerged from several mandals where village secretaries are reportedly not assisting applicants properly, often stating that they have not received login access. This lack of administrative support is causing delays and confusion among applicants. Taking these issues into consideration, Ramachandra Reddy appealed to the District Industrial General Manager to ensure that the scheme is implemented smoothly and reaches all eligible beneficiaries without bureaucratic hurdles. The submission of the petition was accompanied by a group of prominent BJP leaders and supporters. Among those present were: Baligera Shiva Reddy, the BJP candidate who contested from Gadwal District OBC Morcha President Deva Das Senior BJP leaders Sanjeev Reddy and Dabbileti Narasimha Mandal presidents Gopal Krishna, Seshi, and Nagaraju, along with other local party activists and supporters. The group emphasized that if such grassroots-level issues are not resolved promptly, the very purpose of the Vishwakarma Yojana — which is aimed at empowering traditional artisans and boosting their livelihoods — would be defeated. Local leaders requested authorities to initiate coordination meetings with banks and village officials, provide technical support, and conduct awareness programs to facilitate the smooth implementation of the scheme. The BJP leaders concluded their representation with a call for immediate intervention from higher authorities, ensuring transparency and efficiency in delivering the benefits promised under the Pradhan Mantri Vishwakarma Yojana.

Amid talk of differences over Congress inductions, Amrinder Singh Raja Warring says no internal differences
Chandigarh: Putting to rest speculation about unrest over the party revoking the suspension of Phillaur MLA Vikramjit Singh Chaudhary, Punjab Congress president Amrinder Singh Raja Warring on Tuesday said there were no internal differences, and everyone was welcome in the party. Dismissing reports of discord within party ranks over the entry of leaders from other parties, Warring said there was no dissent. "Every party aims to expand its base and strengthen itself. The more people who join, the better it is," he said, responding to the recent inductions. On the upcoming Ludhiana West byelection, the PPCC president claimed that the Congress was ahead of rivals and expressed confidence that the party would win by a record margin. Warring reiterated his opposition to the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) govt's land pooling policy, warning it would lead to the destruction of Punjab's agrarian economy. Interacting with media after a meeting of constituency coordinators at the PPCC headquarters in Chandigarh, Warring said the policy was aimed merely at collecting money. He warned against acquiring 24,000 acres of agricultural land saying that it would destabilise the state's agricultural economy and, by extension, affect every section of society. "Punjab's entire economy—trade and industry—depends on agriculture. When you undermine the base, the entire economic edifice collapses," he said. He also criticised the govt for not taking stakeholders into confidence. He questioned the very need for such a policy when there was no apparent demand for additional residential or industrial plots. "When there is already an abundance of residential plots, where is the need to create more?" he asked. Responding to remarks by BJP state president Sunil Jakhar and Union minister Ravneet Singh Bittu, Warring quipped: "The two of them are enough to sink the BJP's boat, just as they sank the Congress boat a few years ago." Commenting on a village reportedly putting itself up for sale due to the govt's failure to curb drug peddling, Warring remarked: "There can be no bigger slap on the face of the Punjab govt—and no greater proof of defeat in the so-called 'Yudh'—than an entire village putting itself up for sale while drug peddlers are having a field day."

Delhi Confidential: Flood & Fury
AT A time when the northeastern region is reeling under floods, Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha seems to have upset some state BJP leaders with his actions. On Tuesday, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke to the CMs of NE states about the flood situation, Saha was in Bihar to attend a felicitation programme. Later, he also posted a photo on social media of him meeting singer Kumar Sanu, and wrote: 'An absolute delight to interact with a music icon who has brought joy to millions through his soulful voice.' This prompted some party leaders to question why Saha did not cancel his trip to Patna when the northeastern region was facing a crisis. Missed At Home Shivraj Singh Chouhan has been frequently traveling outside the Capital since taking charge as Union Agriculture Minister. Many of his visits have been to his home state, Madhya Pradesh, where he was the CM for four terms between 2005 and 2023. Hence, his absence was notable at a major event in Bhopal on Saturday—the launch of various projects during the Devi Ahilyabai Mahila Sashaktikaran Mahasammelan. Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the gathering, which was attended by several BJP leaders, including Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, while Union Ministers Tokhan Sahu, Ram Mohan Naidu and Muralidhar Mohol participated via videoconferencing. Chouhan was in Haryana that day, attending the Viksit Krishi Sankalp Abhiyan organised by his ministry. His absence at the Bhopal event surprised many given his legacy of launching several women-focused initiatives such as the Ladli Laxmi Yojana, which earned him the moniker 'mama (maternal uncle)'. Crowd Concern The Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust is organising a grand event for the second pran pratishtha of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has been invited as the chief guest for the consecration ceremony on June 5. However, the organisers are wary of too many people converging in the holy city for the event. In the backdrop of the Maha Kumbh stampede that left many dead, VHP leader and Trust chairman Champat Rai on Tuesday urged people not to come to the temple in large numbers on the day. He said even the guest list is not very elaborate due to difficulties in making arrangements.
