Akbar-Amer princess marriage a lie: Governor
On the eve of Maharana Pratap Jayanti, Rajasthan Governor Haribhau Bagde claimed at a public event that foreigners distorted India's early history. He claimed the marriage between Akbar and Amer Princess Jodha was 'a complete lie', citing its absence from the Akbarnama. He also dismissed the widely circulated story of Maharana Pratap sending a treaty letter to Akbar as 'misleading.' According to Bagde, Indian students have been taught more about Akbar than Maharana Pratap, but thanks to the new National Education Policy, the 'truth' is now being restored. He has also said that those converting to other religions do so out of fear. Beniwal's Jaipur rally shakes Bhajanlal govt Nagaur MP and RLP chief Hanuman Beniwal turned Jaipur into a sea of angry youth last weekend as thousands gathered for his Yuva Aakrosh Maharally. Fuming over the 2021 SI recruitment scam, Beniwal demanded the cancellation of the exam and the dissolution of RPSC. The sit-in at Jaipur's Shaheed Smarak exploded into a full-blown political flashpoint this Sunday. Insiders claim the turnout even surpassed PM Modi's recent rally, catching the BJP government off guard. Now, the Bhajanlal Sharma administration is in a fix —if they concede, Beniwal will take the credit; if they delay, public anger will intensify. '199 curse' strikes Raj Assembly once again! Once again, the Rajasthan Assembly is stuck at 199 MLAs after BJP's Kanwarlal Meena lost his seat due to a conviction for a crime. Despite bypolls and general elections, the magical 200 figure won't stick. Since 2001, not once have all 200 MLAs stayed in the House for a full term. Deaths, disqualifications, resignations – there's always an excuse. Some blame politics, others point to the Assembly's 'jinxed' building, allegedly built on a cremation ground. Gangajal rituals, tantriks, closed gates, and even astrologers have been resorted to, but the curse lives on. The big question continues to mystify: Why can't Raj ever keep a full House?

Nagpur MP holds rally demanding cancellation of Rajasthan police recruitment exam
Rashtriya Loktantrik Party (RLP) President and Nagaur MP Hanuman Beniwal on Saturday led the 'Yuva Aakrosh Maharally' in Jaipur's Mansarovar, raising strong demands for the cancellation of the police sub-inspector (SI) recruitment. Beniwal also demanded a complete overhaul of the Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC).Beniwal fiercely targeted the Bhajanlal Sharma-led BJP government, accusing it of shielding those involved in the recruitment the arrest of 100 people, including 53 police sub-inspectors, the Bhajanlal government has maintained silence. This raises serious questions. The SOG has confirmed the scam, and the sub-committee of ministers, along with the AAG and the police headquarters, has recommended cancellation of the recruitment. Yet the matter remains pending. This clearly shows the government's intent to protect the ministers and officers involved,' Beniwal alleged. The RLP chief dismissed any political motives behind his protest.'I am not here for political gains. I speak for the mother who sells her farm to educate her son, for the youth who studies on an empty stomach but refuses to give up. The government must not remain under the illusion that Hanuman Beniwal is alone. The youth, farmers, unemployed, teachers, and students of Rajasthan are standing with me,' he in his speech, Beniwal described the BJP as 'Sampnath' and Congress as 'Nagnath', slamming both parties. He declared that the RPSC had turned into a 'bastion of corruption' and demanded its dissolution. He called for a new structure comprising serving, qualified, and honest officers. He also pressed for the abolition of the normalisation system in exams, immediate release of the list of vacant posts, and the formulation of a recruitment his opposition to the Agniveer recruitment scheme, Beniwal claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent rally in Bikaner reflected a decline in popularity. 'Even with the full government machinery and power of ministers, they couldn't draw the crowd that is present here today,' he from various parts of the state, including Barmer, Nagaur, and Jalore, gathered in large numbers to attend the rally. Beniwal issued a stern warning to the government, stating, 'We don't want to disturb law and order, but we won't back down. The Chief Minister has already gone to Delhi fearing the youth. Ministers have left Jaipur. If the government continues to ignore us, the agitation will spread across the state and we will gherao the Vidhan Sabha.'Must Watch IN THIS STORY#Jaipur
