NEW DELHI: PM Narendra Modi on Tuesday termed the embarrassment caused to Rahul Gandhi by the Supreme Court 's rebuke a slap in the face of those who engage in puerile talk about the country's borders and the armed forces, reports Akhilesh Singh.

Amit Shah now India's longest-serving home minister
NEW DELHI: Amit Shah on Tuesday reached the career milestone of becoming the longest-serving home minister, drawing compliments from PM Narendra Modi for an even-studded spell marked by landmark decisions like abolition of special status of J&K, enactment of Citizenship (Amendment) Act, promulgation of Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita and a hammer blow to Maoist insurgency. Amit Shah, who has been home minister for 2,258 days, has overtaken BJP stalwart L K Advani, who had a run of 2,256 days in the politically crucial position. Govind Ballabh Pant, a Congess giant and former UP CM, had the third longest tenure as home minister. I nterestingly, Shah achieved the distinction on the the 6th anniversary of the scrapping of the special status for J&K - one of the foundational objectives of BJP. While addressing a meeting of NDA parliamentary group, the PM congratulated Shah, whose tenure as BJP chief was also impressive. Modi saying, "It is just the beginning", sparked curiosity among MPs. Parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju, however, clarified that Modi's reference was to BJP-led NDA's ongoing success. In his speech, Shah spoke about Operation Sindoor, calling it a symbol of India's resolute political will and firm response to attacks. Shiv Sena MP Naresh Mhaske said Modi commended Shah for uniting NDA partners.

‘Irregularities in construction of LNJP block, file sent to LG'
New Delhi: A day after the closure of a corruption case against former minister Satyendar Jain, Delhi govt on Tuesday alleged irregularities in the construction of a block at LNJP Hospital during the tenure of the previous AAP dispensation. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now PWD minister Parvesh Verma said the govt had sent the file to lieutenant governor VK Saxena for a probe. "The budget sanctioned for the construction increased by Rs 650 crore. (Former) PWD minister Satyendar Jain got changes done. He would go on inspection and suggest changes, which led to cost escalation. There was a scam of Rs 650 crore," Verma alleged. LG will forward the file to either ACB or CBI, he added. AAP responded by claiming that every day, BJP hatched conspiracies against AAP functionaries and squandered taxpayers' money on these directionless investigations. "Just a day ago, the court taught them a lesson by closing one of the CBI cases against Satyendar Jain. The court clearly stated that CBI had registered a baseless case with no corruption, no criminality and no evidence," it said. Saxena set up a committee last year to examine the "procedural lapses" in the LNJP project and it was found that the original contract amount was Rs 465 crore, which escalated by almost 243% to Rs 1,139 crore. The committee highlighted alleged irregularities and violations in the consultancy work under Jain, the then health minister. It suggested that a favoured architect consultant was appointed without a proper tender, violating procurement and general financial rules, sources said. Although six consultants were empanelled, it was noted that financial bids must be called separately for each project. This requirement was ignored and an arbitrary decision was taken to appoint consultants district-wise or region-wise, they said, claiming that this effectively meant that a single consultant was allowed to handle all projects.
