Patna, May 27 (PTI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led NDA government was celebrating its one year in office only on the basis of promises made to the people without allocating funds, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today said.
“Nothing new has happened in this one year of Narendra Modi government in office,” Kumar said questioning the rationale behind celebration of NDA government’s one year in office.
Alleging that the NDA government was discriminating against Bihar, Kumar said all preparations had been completed for the construction of a six-lane bridge over the Ganga at Kachhi Dargah in Patna.
But instead of making available funds for the project as promised, the Centre was now talking of handing over the project to it, Nitish said.
Likewise, only promises were being made for Gandhi bridge over the Ganga, considered the life line for north Bihar, the CM said at a function here.
“Its election year in Bihar and several promises will be made. But, where is the fund for roads?” Kumar questioned while taking potshots at central ministers moving around in Bihar praising achievements of Narendra Modi government.
“The Centre shall make it clear whether Prime Minister Gramin Sadak yojna (PMGSY), MGNREGA will continue or not,” he asked.
Rural Works Department minister Shrawan Kumar said a sum of Rs 11,000 crore would be needed for building rural roads under PMGSY scheme.
“But, due to non-availability of funds, the condition of roads is becoming pathetic,” the minister said adding his department was constantly drawing attention of the Centre towards this but no result has come so far.
New Delhi, May 27 (PTI) Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today hit out at the Modi government saying it was “harping” on corruption to divert people’s attention to non-issues and asserted that he never used public office to “enrich” himself, family or friends.
In a scathing attack, Singh said that institutions of democracy are under threat and the entire edifice of the welfare state is now being dismantled in the guise of promoting faster economic growth.
“As far as I am concerned, I can say in all humility that I have not used my public office to enrich myself, to enrich my family or my friends. And still the BJP government keeps on harping on this theme of corruption because it wants to distract the attention of the people to non-issues,” he said in a hard-hitting speech at an event here.
His comments came in the wake of former TRAI Chairman Pradip Baijal’s allegations that Singh had warned him of harm if he did not cooperate on 2G telecom licenses. Baijal, who was probed for several years in connection with the 2G spectrum allocation scam case, also claimed that the CBI wanted him to “implicate” Arun Shourie and Ratan Tata in the case.
Asserting that many of UPA’s programmes were being repackaged and marketed as initiatives of the BJP government, Singh said, “What the BJP had opposed when we were in power are now being sold as its contribution”.
Rejecting criticism of “policy paralysis” in the UPA, he said when his government left, India was the second fastest growing economy in the world and noted there was a “fragileness” in economic recovery under the current dispensation.
“The past is continuously being rewritten to promote a highly biased and communal view. Dissent is being suppressed,” Singh said.
“Institutions of democracy are under threat. The entire edifice of the welfare state is now being dismantled in the guise of promoting faster economic growth, whereas they are two sides of the same coin,” he said.
The Congress party has tried hard to ensure that India flourishes as an open pluralistic, liberal secular democracy proud of its composite heritage, he said.
“This very idea of India is now under systemic assault.
We must understand how this assault is being mounted and then come up with out response,” Singh said. .
Beirut: Given the heinous accounts of atrocities committed by the Islamic State fighters in Iraq and Syria, it becomes difficult to imagine that the ISIS monsters could have a life beyond beheadings and blood soaked battles.
However, a rare peek into the personal life of an ISIS fighter, based on his interviews via Skype given to the Associated Press, it becomes clear how the Islamic State lures young recruits by providing perks like a free honeymoon package worth $1,500 and stipend for family.
In Raqqa, a city which is stained with the blood of thousands of innocent soul, an Islamic State fighter narrates how he enjoys a free honeymoon and all the perks that come along with it – a walk by the Euphrates river, delicious food in restaurants, ice-cream treat with his new bride – all thanks to $1500 marriage bonus paid by the ISIS.
It is the story of an ISIS fighter Abu Bilal al-Homsi, who was an IT professional before he joined the Islamic State.
“It has everything one would want for a wedding,” al-Homsi said of Raqqa — a riverside provincial capital that in the 18 months since IS took control has seen militants beheading opponents and stoning alleged adulteresses in public.
“It is not just fighting,” said al-Homsi, who uses a nom de guerre. “There are institutions.There are civilians (that IS) is in charge of, and wide territories . It must help the immigrants marry. These are the components of a state and it must look after its subjects.” Al-Homsi spoke in a series of interviews with The Associated Press.
According to his interviews given to the AP over three years, he says that he met his Tunisian bride online after she liked his rhetoric views on Islam.
The two chatted online for months before the ISIS fighter travelled to Syrian city of Deir al-Zour to ask her brother (already an ISIS fighter) for her hand in marriage.
The 24-year-old bride-to-be traveled through Algeria to Turkey, and from there to Raqqa with a group of other women joining IS. They were housed in a guesthouse for women, where the IS women police force also resides.
Al-Homsi made the hazardous 150-mile (250-kilometer) journey from Homs to Raqqa to join her, after getting a recommendation from his local commanders.
During the few days of their honeymoon, al-Homsi and his bride enjoyed Raqqa’s relative tranquility, riverside promenades and restaurants.
Then the couple travelled back to the Homs area, where IS fighters are holding ground against Assad’s forces and rival rebel groups.
There, al-Homsi used the money from his grant to prepare a home for his new bride, and four kittens. The couple is now expecting a new baby and hoping for another cash injection, as the group can pay up to $400 as a bonus for each child.
For now the group provides a stipend of $50 a month for him and a similar amount for his wife.
He also has an allowance for his uniform and clothes, some household cleaning supplies, and a monthly food basket worth $65.
Soon after speaking to the AP, al-Homsi was back on the battlefield, among the fighters who took over the ancient city of Palmyra earlier this month.
The Islamic State, which is notorious for committing formidable atrocities, however pretends to think that it is up to an ambitious project: building a new nation ruled by what radicals see as “God’s law,” made up of Muslims from around the world whose old nationalities have been erased and who have been united in the “caliphate.”
To do that, the group has set up a generous welfare system to help settle and create lives for the thousands of jihadis — men and women — who have flocked to IS territory from the Arab world, Europe, Central Asia and the United States.
New Delhi: The war between the Centre and Arvind Kejriwal for control over Delhi is moving to the Supreme Court.
Sources in the Union Home Ministry say the Centre has decided that it will challenge in the top court the victory scored recently by Mr Kejriwal, the Chief Minister of the capital.
Earlier this week, the Delhi High Court tagged as “suspect” a notification issued by the Centre that placed vast limits on the Chief Minister’s authority. The Centre said key decisions on the Delhi Police, land, and the appointments of bureaucrats are the sole prerogative of its representative in the capital, Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung, who is not obliged to consult the Chief Minister on these issues.
Mr Kejriwal has said that document was a naked play by the BJP to govern Delhi by proxy.
A two-day emergency session of the Delhi Assembly called by him seeks to formally reject the Centre’s instructions. Given that Mr Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party holds 67 seats, and the BJP just three, the outcome holds little suspense.
Since his first and brief term as Chief Minister in February last year, Mr Kejriwal has shared a jagged relationship with Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung, who he has accused of underhand political maneuvering designed to give the Centre, led by the BJP, an unwarranted authority in Delhi.
Their chafing scaled up to monster proportions about two weeks ago, when the Lieutenant Governor proclaimed he would decide the assignments of senior bureaucrats. Both men then declared postings decided by the other as invalid; the ugliness of the tit-for-tat peaked when a bureaucrat found himself locked out of office.
Mr Kejriwal has made it clear that he wants to campaign for statehood for Delhi, which, as a union territory, is governed partly by the Union Home Ministry.

Calcutta, May 26 (PTI): West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday termed as “unfortunate” the lynching of a Railway Protection Force constable by hawkers at Malda and said this was a result of Centre’s interference in law and order situation in the state.
Mamata told the Assembly that the Centre should have informed the state government about hawker eviction. The RPF did not inform the state about this as it is under the jurisdiction of the Railways.
An RPF personnel was stoned to death and three more were injured when angry hawkers allegedly attacked the RPF office in Malda station premises after one of them was barred from doing business.
Mamata said both hawkers and RPF had done wrong, but the problem that took place on Monday can be credited to the Centre for its interference in the law and order issue of the state.
The railway hawkers, she said, live in distress and their eviction should be carefully planned and executed and not in the abrupt manner seen Monday.
The incident took place after an RPF team asked a hawker not to sell wares at the entrance to the station, but as the hawker protested the personnel beat him up.
Stating that there was no role of state police in the incident, Mamata said proper negotiation was needed. They also need a rehabilitation package for sustaining their livelihood.
In this regard, she said that the state government was preparing a scheme for the railway hawkers.
Kangana Ranaut is not particularly fond of the title ‘Queen’ that she earned during her previous film with the same title. However, seems like she has become the heir apparent of this throne that not so long ago belonged to the Piku actress!
Kangana Ranaut’s repertoire of films is getting stronger by the day. And it is not her choice of films alone, the actress is also making great statements and moves that are only taking her closer to the Numero Uno position in Bollywood. Like in 2014, this year too Kangana Ranaut has proved that she is definitely the Queen of Bollywood. Only recently, Piku’s great box office numbers had made Deepika Padukone take the throne but was usurped by Kangana with Tanu Weds Manu Returns. Her brilliant performance, coupled with a great storyline and some hilarious punches, the film has rocked the box office and is continuing to do so. This proves that Kangana has now dethroned Deepika. And here’s how Kangana managed to do so…
anu Weds Manu Returns is a success for a lot of reasons, but Kangana Ranaut is definitely the one who attracted more applause. And why wouldn’t she? The film opening day collections is far better than Deepika Padukone’s Piku. While TWMR earned 8 crore, Piku managed a decent 5.5 crores on its first day which makes it clear that it’s Kangana who is the queen of Bollywood this year and not Deepika Padukone. It has already crossed Piku’s opening weekend collection and is enroute to earn some more!
The right choice
While Deepika kept on harping on My Choice, Kangana made the right choices. In an interview to DNA, she spoke about how she rejected The Dirty Picture for Tanu Weds Manu and is right now reaping the benefits of that decision. She took a risk and, fortunately, it paid off! It has also to do with Deepika’s interest in being part of socially viral videos which at one point of time backfired. While Kangana’s Microsoft commercial went viral and won her more brownie points. The fact that Kangana turned down a fairness cream’s deal because she found it all wrong only went on to fetch her more followers!
Do what is needed
When Piku released and warmed everyone’s hearts, the story of the film got a lot of appreciation apart from Deepika Padukone whereas all people can talk about Tanu Weds Manu Returns is how Kangana has floored everyone. Sometimes all you need to do is stick to your work. Rest is all taken care of!
It was a usual day for an IPL final. Yet another Mumbai-Chennai final, Eden Gardens as the venue, fans cheering more for Sachin Tendulkar in the dugout rather than on-field players.
But a girl stole the final single handedly by just making an appearance in the presentation party. For all those wondering who she was, her name is Rakhee Kapoor Tandon.
The Beauty in Blue smiled just once at the camera and the male hearts all around India stopped. She became an instant hit on all social media. Everyone wanted to know who she was.
Apparently, Rakhee isn’t just ‘one of those cute girls’. She is way more than that.
Rakhee is the daughter of Rana Kapoor, Founder & CEO of YES Bank. And she is possible heir to the fourth largest private sector bank in India. Apart from this, she has worked as an investment banker in the US and also holds a MBA degree from The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Along with this, Rakhee is one of India’s 25 Most Influential Women, as per India Today magazine.
Ahmedabad, May 26 (PTI) ‘Delighted’ at Switzerland making public names of some Indians with Swiss accounts, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley today said this should provide enough indications of actions to follow for those holding unaccounted assets outside India.
“I have been repeatedly saying that the veil of secrecy with regard to assets and monies kept by Indian entities outside India is going to be lifted… This should give a sufficient indicator to those who hold assets outside India,” Jaitley said here.
The names of at least seven “Indian nationals” have been made public in Switzerland’s Federal Gazette with regard to details sought about them by the Indian authorities.
Some countries have already been cooperating and the world is moving in the direction of automatic exchange of information, Jaitley said, adding he was encouraged by Switzerland cooperating with India.
“From the last one year we have had extensive negotiations with the Swiss authorities. The Swiss authorities have been moving in the direction of cooperation. I am delighted that this cooperation would not have fructified on a better day than when our government completes its one year,” he said.
Industrialist Yash Birla, as also two Mumbai-based individuals behind City Limousines scam, are among the seven Indian nationals with Swiss bank accounts whose names have been made public in Switzerland’s official gazette with regard to ongoing tax probes against them in India.
The others are Gurjit Singh Kochar, son-in-law of late realty baron Ponty Chadha, a Delhi-based businesswoman Ritika Sharma, Sneh Lata Sawhney and Sangita Sawheny.
Among these, some details have already been shared by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration (FTA) with India.
New Delhi, May 26 (PTI) Nokia India today withdrew from Delhi High Court its plea seeking permission to urgently sell its mobile manufacturing unit in Chennai, which was frozen over a Rs-10,000 crore claim raised by the Income Tax department, saying the proposed buyer has backed out.
At the same time, Nokia and I-T department told the court that a report has been received from Ernst and Young India Pvt Ltd (EY) on valuation of the company’s assets.
As per the report, Rs 361 crore was the valuation of assets if they were to be sold as ‘on going concern’ (company not bankrupt) and Rs 417 crore if ‘non going concern’ (company has gone bankrupt), they said.
Nokia submitted before a bench of justices Badar Durrez Ahmed and Sanjeev Sachdeva that it was withdrawing the plea seeking permission to urgently sell the unit as the proposed buyer has withdrawn.
It told the court that the buyer had offered it Rs 400 crore for the assets.
In response to Nokia’s submission, the court noted the proposed buyer had also offered a price that was in the same range as the valuation by EY.
The matter was listed today after the court had on May 19 agreed to give it an urgent hearing after Nokia said a buyer had been found for its Chennai unit.
Initially, the matter was listed for hearing on September 7.
EY was appointed by the court as the valuer for Nokia India’s Chennai mobile plant and its other assets.
The court had said that EY would do the valuation of the assets of the company on both ‘on going concern’ (company not bankrupt) and ‘non going concern’ (company has gone bankrupt) methods.
On April 24, the Income Tax department had told the court that the amount offered by an “arm’s length buyer” for Nokia India’s Chennai plant was “very little”.
An ‘arm’s length’ transaction is one in which the buyer and seller of a product act independently and have no relationship with each other to ensure that they act according to their self-interest and are not influenced by other party.
The I-T department had said that the offer amount was very little and if the unit and related assets were sold, it would be difficult to recover the tax amount which it has tentatively placed at Rs 10,000 crore.
