"True leadership is possible only by connecting with public": CM Dhami
Haridwar (Uttarakhand) [India], June 9 (ANI): Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami took part in a roadshow and Jan Samvad programme in Libbarheri, Haridwar district, reaffirming that his political approach is grounded in his strong connection with the people and the land. During the visit, CM Dhami addressed the public from the stage and also drove a tractor, expressing his gratitude towards the state's farmers. According to the release statement, the Chief Minister stepped down from the traditional stage and took over the tractor's steering, and a wave of enthusiasm rippled through the crowd. 'Farmers are the backbone of our country.' CM Dhami remarked. 'When I drive a tractor, it is not just a drive but a small effort to salute the hard work of our Annadata brothers. This scene made it clear that the Chief Minister's leadership is not limited to schemes and announcements; getting down on the ground and becoming a participant is an integral part of his style,' he added. The primary purpose of CM Dhami's visit to Libbarheri was to thank the public for their support of the recently implemented Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in Uttarakhand and to convey the importance of this historic law to the public. 'UCC is neither against any religion nor any class. It is the basic foundation of equality, justice and transparency. This is the same dream that Baba Saheb Dr. Ambedkar had seen at the time of drafting the Constitution. This law will prove to be a milestone in the direction of unity, brotherhood and equal rights of citizens of the state,' Dhami said. During the program, the Chief Minister also mentioned various public welfare schemes of the state government, which include technical training for modern farming for farmers, startup schemes for young entrepreneurs, expansion of irrigation facilities, and upgradation of roads and health services. He said, 'Our goal is not just to do development but to take development to every village and every person.' This visit to Libbarheri proved that Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami's leadership is not limited to administrative boundaries. He is a public leader who not only listens but also participates on the ground. Be it a tractor ride or a public dialogue on the Uniform Civil Code, every aspect shows that Uttarakhand is moving towards a new era, where development and sensitivity go hand in hand. (ANI)

Nishikant Dubey hits out at Rahul Gandhi, asks whether Nehru family
New Delhi [India], June 9 (ANI): BJP MP Nishikant Dubey has hit out at Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi, asking whether his family 'imposed the 1962 war on India by supporting China.' In his 'X' post, Nishikant Dubey accused former Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru of creating a new slogan of the 'non-aligned countries'. Non-aligned countries were a group of those newly independent countries that neither joined the US nor the Soviet (modern-day Russia) bloc during the Cold War era. Sharing glimpses of the declaration of the 1961 Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) Belgrade Conference, Nishikant Dubey stated that the conference 'ordered' the United Nations to make China its only member. The BJP MP stated that India was isolated from Russia and the US, due to which neither country came to its rescue during the 1962 war with China. He further called for investigation regarding the relationship between China and Jawaharlal Nehru's family. On May 7, Nishikant Dubey hit back at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his accusation that the 2024 Maharashtra assembly election was 'rigged' in favour of the BJP. Dubey urged the Congress leader to read the 1975 judgement of the Allahabad High Court to know how his grandmother and former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi 'fixed' and 'stole' the 1971 Lok Sabha elections to win from the Rae Bareli constituency in Uttar Pradesh. 'Rahul Baba, how is the election fixed or stolen? Read the exploits of your grandmother, Indira Gandhi, which is the judgment of the Allahabad High Court,' Dubey said in a post on X. 'The army and its helicopters were used in the 1971 elections. Liquor and clothes were openly distributed during the election of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi 3. Ask for votes in the name of Hinduism. Voters were brought in vehicles. Money is distributed indiscriminately. Government employees engaged in an election campaign. You create the election drama, your family ruins the country, and you will not get the liberty to loot the elections anymore,' he added. (ANI)
