PM Highlights Significance of India’s Development in the Upcoming 20 Years:

Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed his optimism regarding India’s future as an economic powerhouse and reiterated his vision of positioning India as the world’s growth engine during an event of the ‘Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit’ in Ahmedabad.

Modi stated that when the ‘Vibrant Gujarat’ initiative was initiated, its primary goal was to transform the state into the driving force behind India’s progress. He underscored the realization of this vision, highlighting that India is now the fastest-growing global economy, a recognition acknowledged by international agencies and experts.

Addressing industrialists, the Prime Minister encouraged them to focus on sectors capable of generating fresh opportunities for India’s growth. He advocated for discussions on strengthening the startup ecosystem, agri-tech, food processing, and agriculture.

Modi recalled how ‘Vibrant Gujarat’ commenced during a period when the previous central government showed little interest in the state’s industrial advancement. He emphasized that these events have evolved into institutions, inspiring other states to organize their own investment summits.

The Prime Minister emphasized the significance of the next two decades for India’s development and self-sufficiency. He urged the nation to formulate a roadmap for achieving developed nation status by 2047, coinciding with India’s centenary of independence.

During his visit, Modi inaugurated an exhibition at Science City commemorating the 20th anniversary of the Vibrant Gujarat Summit. He explored various attractions at Science City, including an aquarium, a robotics gallery, and a nature park.

In addition, Modi launched several development projects worth over Rs 5,000 crore in Bodeli, a tribal-dominated town in Gujarat’s Chhotaudepur district. He underscored the government’s commitment to providing housing for the underprivileged, with a focus on preserving their dignity.

At a separate event in Vadodara, organized by the ruling BJP to express gratitude for the passage of the women’s reservation bill in Parliament, Modi accused opposition parties of obstructing the bill for three decades and attempting to divide women along caste and religious lines after its successful passage.

Confirmed Itinerary for PM Modi’s Visit to Telangana:

With the confirmation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi‘s visit and the disclosure of his schedule, BJP leaders are preparing to welcome him, emphasizing that the visit is an official one.

D.K. Aruna, BJP’s National Vice President, shared the details, stating, “People from across the former Mahabubnagar district are expected to attend. We anticipate a gathering of 1.5 lakh people at the Bhoothpur ground, where the meeting is scheduled to take place. Currently, we have not received information regarding the inauguration of various development programs. Some developments like the doubling of railway lines, upgrades to national highways, and Bharat mala initiatives have already taken place in the district. It’s possible that the foundation stone for a bridge on Somasila might be laid.”

Once completed, the cable bridge, known as the Somasila-Siddeshwaram cable stay-cum-suspension bridge, will significantly reduce the distance between Hyderabad and Tirupati by 80 kilometers. Currently, the distance between the two cities stands at 580 kilometers, and this bridge has been a twenty-year-old demand.

A.P. Jithender Reddy, the former MP from Mahabubnagar, expressed, “People are eagerly awaiting the PM’s visit, considering his accomplishments such as representing India at the G-20, advocating for the women’s reservation bill, and contributing to lunar exploration. Approximately 1.5 lakh people are expected to attend the meeting, with attendees coming from 14 assembly constituencies. The foundation stone for certain projects, the details of which are being finalized, may be laid during the visit.”

Despite the leaders’ claims of mobilizing 1.5 lakh attendees, Bhoothpur police station’s Sub-Inspector, P. Srinivasulu, clarified, “The venue for the meeting can accommodate up to one lakh people. It is an open agricultural land owned by private individuals.

The necessary No Objection Certificates (NOC) for the land and other logistical matters are currently under the purview of the collector’s office, given the official nature of the program.”

Enforcement Directorate Files New Complaint in Chit Fund Scam Involving ex-BJD ML

Enforcement Directorate Files New Complaint in Chit Fund Scam Involving ex-BJD ML:

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has reported that it filed a second supplementary prosecution complaint against former Cuttack MLA Pravat Ranjan Biswal, his wife Laxmi Bilasani Biswal, Seashore Securities Ltd., Seashore Multipurpose Co-operative Ltd, their two directors Prashanta Kumar Dash and Pravat Kumar Dash, along with three others. This action was taken before a Special Court (PMLA) in Bhubaneshwar in connection with a multi-crore chit fund scam.

The ED has confirmed that the court has acknowledged the prosecution complaint. Previously, the ED had filed a prosecution complaint in 2016 in this case, followed by a supplementary complaint in 2017.

The PMLA investigation was initiated by the ED based on a First Information Report (FIR) registered by the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Crime Branch of Odisha Police. Subsequently, a charge sheet was also filed under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), Prize Chits and Money Circulation Schemes (Banning) Act, and Odisha Protection of Interest of Depositors (in Financial Establishments) Act. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) took over the investigation following an order from the High Court of Orissa.

The ED’s investigation uncovered that the Seashore Group of companies had amassed substantial funds from the public through their registered cooperatives. These funds were then diverted to other shell companies and various related individuals to obscure the source of the funds, effectively layering them. The accused individuals mentioned in the supplementary complaint filed by the ED were also involved in channeling the proceeds of the crime.

Manipur’s Chief Minister, N. Biren Singh, has announced that a team led by the CBI director, accompanied by specialists, will arrive in Imphal on Wednesday to investigate the killings of two youths who had been missing since July 6. The circulation of photos depicting the bodies of these missing youths on social media triggered protests by students in the state.

In the Imphal Valley, a total of 45 students, including many girls, sustained injuries on Tuesday as the police used tear gas and baton charges to disperse demonstrators protesting against the alleged kidnapping and killing of the two youths back in July. These distressing photos began circulating on social media platforms on Monday. CM Singh assured the people of the state via social media that both the state and central governments are collaborating closely to apprehend the culprits.

He emphasized the commitment of the authorities to swiftly resolve this matter by stating that the CBI Director and a specialized team would be arriving in Imphal for this crucial investigation.

The march was organized in the hill districts to protest against the demand for Scheduled Tribe status by the majority Meitei community, which constitutes about 53 percent of Manipur’s population and resides mainly in the Imphal Valley. In contrast, tribals, including Nagas and Kukis, makeup 40 percent of the population and primarily reside in the hill districts.

YSRC Questions Bhuvaneswari on the Source of Naidu’s Considerable Wealth

YSRC Questions Bhuvaneswari on the Source of Naidu’s Considerable Wealth:

Members of the ruling Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP) in the legislative assembly raised concerns on Tuesday, asserting that N.Chandrababu Naidu was the primary figure implicated in the AP FibreNet scam, a matter that Jagan Mohan Reddy had addressed during his time as the opposition leader in 2016.

Additionally, YSRCP legislators directed their questions to Naidu’s wife, Bhuvaneswari, regarding the origin of the family’s substantial wealth, citing that Naidu had “only two acres of land” at the time of their marriage.

During a brief discussion within the state assembly, the ruling party alleged that Naidu and his associates had misappropriated Rs. 114 crore in public funds in connection with the FiberNet scam.

MLA Abbaya Chowdary initiated the conversation on corruption, labeling the “Chandrababu skill scam” as the central issue among all scams. He claimed that Nara Lokesh, Naidu’s son, had expertise in fraudulent activities and deception.

Industries Minister Gudivada Amarnath recalled Jagan Mohan Reddy’s warning about the Fibrenet Scam in 2016 when he served as the opposition leader. Amarnath played a video clip from that time, showcasing Jagan’s allegations regarding the FiberNet deal.

Amarnath emphasized that this scandal was not new and that it had been previously brought to attention. YSRCP presented the question of how Naidu and his family had amassed such substantial wealth over the years.

Amarnath raised the issue of the rapid increase in Bhuvaneswari’s company’s value and questioned the total worth of all the other businesses and enterprises owned by the Naidu family.

He suggested that the significant wealth might be linked to funds allegedly taken from the public over the years. Amarnath concluded by asserting that Naidu was held accountable for misappropriating public funds and deceiving the people, resulting in his incarceration.

Amarnath further criticized the TD government for granting funds before receiving an evaluation report from the Central Institute of Tool Design (CITD) on software in the AP skills development scam. He characterized the 90:10 agreement as a deceptive tactic used by Naidu to embezzle public funds.

In summary, the skills development scam and the Fibrenet Scam were presented as noteworthy examples of how public funds were allegedly misappropriated during the Telugu Desam Party’s tenure.
