Bhu Bharati to be operational in 28 mandals of 28 districts from today

The Hindu04-05-2025
The State government has decided to extend the operation of the prestigious Bhu Bharati Act and portal to 28 more mandals in 28 districts across the State starting Monday.
The Revenue department has accordingly decided to conduct revenue sadassus, meetings to receive applications from landowners facing problems due to the Dharani portal, in these mandals till May 20. The development follows the implementation of the new Act and portal on a pilot basis in four mandals of four districts from April 17 to 30.
According to Revenue Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy, the sadassus were aimed to create awareness among the people on the Bhu Bharati Act and take steps to resolve the grievances of landowners as part of the meetings. District collectors have been directed to participate in these meetings to clear doubts of the people in layman terms and ensure that grievances are resolved effectively.
The hasty steps by the BRS government landed scores of landowners in trouble giving them sleepless nights. The Dharani portal launched by the BRS government with ulterior motives pushed hundreds of families into problems raising questions on the ownership of lands they were in possession since generations.
The powers that be in the previous government supported the 'land business' conducted in the name of Dharani, resulting in people losing rights over their lands. At the same time, the absence of a window to represent their grievances had compounded the problems of farmers. The Congress government led by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy enacted the Telangana Bhu Bharati (Record of Rights) Act 2025 to alleviate the problems faced by landowners, especially farmers.
The government was firm on effective implementation of the Bhu Bharati Act and it had sought the cooperation of the people, elected representatives and officials concerned in this direction. This has been contemplated to reduce litigations which were aplenty in the decade long rule of the BRS government as people were left with no option but to take legal recourse.

'India's Strikes, Not Trump': Tharoor Backs India's Stance On Ceasefire With Pakistan At the launch of the book 'Whither India-Pakistan Relations Today? Can They Ever Be Good Neighbours?', Congress MP Shashi Tharoor praised Operation Sindoor, calling it a decisive response to cross-border terror. He said India's strikes—"not Mr. Trump"—prompted Pakistan to request a ceasefire in May. Tharoor revealed he had written an op-ed days after the Pahalgam attack suggesting such action, and expressed surprise that the government followed the same course. He said India's interception of missiles aimed at Delhi on May 10 showed strength. With Balakot and now Sindoor, Tharoor said India has shown it won't tolerate terror on its soil. 6.7K views | 5 hours ago

Papers torn, MPs come close to scuffle as Lok Sabha sees pandemonium over Bill to remove ministers detained on graft charges

Lok Sabha on Wednesday afternoon witnessed stormy scenes, unprecedented in the past decade, over the introduction of the Constitution (130th Amendment) Bill, 2025, which seeks to remove a Central or State Minister who is facing allegations of corruption or serious offences and has been detained for at least 30 days. In a rare moment, BJP and TMC MPs came close to a scuffle in the Well of the House. As soon as Union Home Minister Amit Shah rose to introduce this and other Bills, MPs from the Trinamool Congress stormed the Well of the House, shouting slogans. They were, however, not joined by other members of the Opposition at that moment. Congress MPs stood up to speak against the Bill and opposed its introduction. Things became tense when Congress MP K C Venugopal, while opposing the Bill, brought up the issue of Shah's arrest in the Sohrabuddin Shaikh encounter case. Shah stood up to say that he had resigned as Gujarat Home Minister before the arrest. As the verbal duel reached its crescendo, Venugopal tore the Bill and threw it in the Well. This was followed by other Congress MPs and opposition party members, including Samajwadi Party's Dharmender Yadav, doing the same. After this, all opposition MPs came to the Well of the House and started shouting slogans. Amid all this, TMC's Kalyan Banerjee, in an apparent bid to be heard, came close to Shah's mic while he was speaking on the Bill and started shouting slogans. Seeing this, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju rushed to Shah's seat and angrily asked Banerjee to step back. Taking the cue, the entire Treasury Beaches moved towards the TMC MPs. They came so close that Shah himself had to intervene, asking people to calm down.

Bihar poll officials reject Rahul Gandhi's claims on voter deletion

Election authorities in Bihar on Tuesday refuted allegations by Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, who shared videos on X of two villagers — Subodh Kumar of Nawada and Ranju Devi of Rohtas — claiming that their names were deleted during the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in the poll-bound state. Congress MP Rahul Gandhi with Bihar LoP Tejashwi Yadav during the 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' in Bihar's Aurangabad on Monday. (Photo from X) Gandhi highlighted their cases during his ongoing state-wide 'Voter Adhikar Yatra', which began on August 17. Nawada district magistrate Ravi Prakash, in a post on X, called Kumar's allegation 'baseless and untrue', stating that his name was never recorded in the electoral roll. In Gandhi's video, Kumar, a farmer, alleged that his name was struck off the electoral rolls despite him having voted in the 2025 Lok Sabha elections, where he also acted as a polling agent. Prakash clarified that Kumar's name did not feature in the Warisaliganj constituency's rolls — in the 2024 summary revision, the 2025 supplementary list, or the August 1 draft. While other family members were transferred between polling stations 9 and 10, Kumar's name was absent throughout. He added that Kumar's name never appeared in the deleted electors' list displayed at booths under Supreme Court orders. Although present when the booth-level officer affixed the list, Kumar did not file any objection or Form-6 request despite being asked to do so. 'If he submits Form-6 with the required declaration, his name will be included as per rules,' Prakash said. Meanwhile, the electoral registration officer of Rohtas' 207-Chenari constituency rejected claims by Ranju Devi, who alleged in Gandhi's video that her family's names were deleted from the draft rolls published on August 1. The officer's inquiry confirmed that eight family members were listed at booths 342 and 343. Later, television channels showed Devi admitting she had been misinformed by her ward secretary, who wrongly told her their names were missing from the voter list during the SIR exercise.
