The latest incident sparked a row in Andhra Pradesh with social media users linking its origins to Andhra Pradesh govt. However, the Andhra Pradesh government ruled out the claims and alleged that it is TDP’s conspiracy to promote false propaganda on govt

In an official statement, the state government said: “Ration dealer husband, who is a TDP member from Vadlamuru village, had printed Jesus Christ’s picture on the ration cards and intentionally promoted the propaganda.” The government said that the rational dealer’s husband is a “die-hard TDP fan” and not a converted Christian. “The officials are supposed to take action on this issue of misconduct,” the govt asserted.

YSRCP MP Vijayasai Reddy appeals central govt to undertake the construction of Ramayapatnam Port

YSRCP member Vijayasai Reddy appealed to the center to start works on construction in Ramayapatnam port. He raised this issue at the Rajya Sabha Zero Hour on Monday. As per the Andhra Pradesh Reorganization Act, the central government should provide financial assistance to the state to build a major port in Dugarajapat.

However, Vijayasai Reddy said the central government had in principle agreed to build Ramayapatnam in Prakasam district as an alternative. He added that the Ramayapatnam Port is recognized as an ideal destination for international shipping. He also brought to the notice of the Government of Ramayapatnam the necessity of the port of Ramayapatnam during the recent BIMSTEC International Conference on the construction of ports in the borders of the Bay of Bengal.

The conference also discussed the impact of the Ramayapatnam port on commercial transactions between BIMSTEC countries. The port is to be taken over by the state government with central government funding. He said that instead of getting permission to build a major port from the central government, the previous government has decided to build on its own. But today’s Andhra Pradesh government is very clear on this. He said that if the central government grants the necessary funds for the construction of a non-major port in Ramayapatnam, the state government will undertake the construction of the port and fulfill it promptly.

He said that it was their government’s intention to do justice to the people of the state. The state government has already identified three thousand acres of land in Ramayapatnam for the construction of a major port.

Fadnavis was Maharashtra CM for 80 hours to divert Rs 40,000 crore central funds: Anantkumar Hedge

Bharatiya Janata Party leader Anantkumar Hedge on Monday claimed that Devendra Fadnavis became Maharashtra chief minister for just 80 hours to divert Rs 40,000 crore funds back to Centre, news agency ANI reported.

Hedge, member of Parliament from Uttara Kannada constituency in Karnataka, is known for making controversial comments. He said everyone is asking why BJP formed a government in Maharashtra without the numbers, he then provided and explanation.

“A CM has access to around Rs 40,000 crore from Centre. He [Devendra Fadnavis] knew if Congress, Nationalist Congress Party [NCP] and Shiv Sena government comes to power it would misuse funds meant for development. So it was decided that there should be a drama. Fadnavis became CM and in 15 hours he moved Rs 40,000 crore back to Centre,” Hedge was quoted as saying by ANI.

In a surprise move, Fadnavis was sworn-in as Maharashtra CM on Saturday morning after support from a splinter group of NCP led by Ajit Pawar. The government lasted for only 80 hours with both Pawar and Fadnavis resigning on Tuesday a day before a Supreme Court-ordered trust vote. Pawar has since returned to the NCP fold.

After Fadnavis’ resignation, the three-party alliance of Sena, NCP, and Congress, known as Maharashtra Vikas Aghadi (MVA), staked claim to form a government in the state.

Sena president Uddhav Thackeray took oath as chief minister at Mumbai’s iconic Shivaji Park on Thursday. Thackeray-led MVA passed the floor test in the assembly on Saturday with the support of 169 MLAs. The halfway mark in the assembly is 299-member Maharashtra assembly is 145.

In his speech in the assembly on Sunday, Thackeray had targeted Fadnavis for forming a government without the numbers to clear a floor test. Thackeray assured the House that he “will not do anything at midnight”.

Telangana HC directs Ts govt to fill vacancies in crucial posts by dec 20

The Telangana government has come under fire from the state High Court for still having not yet filled vacancies in crucial posts. The court has now given the government a deadline of December 20 to fill the various positions which have been empty for several months and in some cases several years now.

A bench comprising Chief Justice Raghavendra Singh Chauhan and Justice A Abhishek Reddy directed the government to rectify the discrepancy while reading a public interest litigation (PIL) filed by A Venkanna, a social activist.

According to reports, the bench wondered how the state government intends to root out corruption and violation of rights, without instilling an individual to some of these crucial positions.

The PIL filed by Venkanna had pointed out that the state had failed to appoint a Lokayukta, a Upa-Lokayukta and a new chairperson for the State Human Rights Commission (SHRC).

This is not the first time that the state government has been called out for this exact reason. In August this year, Venkanna, an activist who hails from Khammam, filed the PIL after taking account of the fact that thousands of cases remain pending in the Lokayukta and the SHRC, as a result of the state government’s apathy in taking steps to fill the vacant posts.

The State Commission for Protection of Child Rights (SCPCR) for instance, has not been functional for almost two years now while the State Women’s Commission has not had a chairperson for over a year.

An RTI response to TNM from the Public Information Officer of the Lokayukta in July showed that 2,767 complaints had been received since December 15, 2017, while the total number of complaints pending with the institution was a staggering 5,283.

CM kcr ends impasse over TSRTC strike, says workers can resume duties

The Telangana Chief Minister said that the state government has decided to give Rs 100 crore to the RTC to temporarily mitigate the losses.

After a deadlock that lasted for close to two months, Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao said that the state government is willing to welcome back striking workers of the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC).

“All of you can resume duties happily tomorrow,” KCR said after a Cabinet meeting that lasted for over three hours on Thursday.

Nearly 48,000 employees went on strike from October 5 to press for various demands, including the demand to merge the TSRTC with the government, which would give them the same benefits as state government employees.

The protest was being led by a Joint Action Committee (JAC) of the TSRTC employee unions. Around 25 employees of the corporation died during the period, some of whom took their own lives due to the crisis.

The Telangana Chief Minister said that the state government has decided to give Rs 100 crore to the RTC to temporarily mitigate the losses. KCR also proposed that he would personally meet five employees from each depot at Pragathi Bhavan, his residence in Hyderabad, to allay their fears.

A plan on privatization is expected to be taken soon.

KCR lashed out at the union leaders who were leading the strike, and said that they had ‘misled’ the employees.

“We care for the employees but not for the union leaders. We will give a job to the kin of the families who died. We will accommodate them either in the RTC or in some other department in the state government. We will definitely help them,” he said.

The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) chief also said that the TSRTC would increase the ticket prices to reduce TSRTC’s losses. Promising that the corporation would soon turn a profit, KCR said that the unions had to go.

“We will set up a ‘Workers Welfare Council’ with a senior minister in charge. We will fix a date and call for a meeting once a month. It is important that you should survive and your kin should also survive. The organization belongs to you and not to the unions,” KCR said in the press meet, addressing the workers.

He also said that he would soon travel to New Delhi and meet with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and discuss the issue with him.

On Monday, the JAC had announced that it was calling off the strike and asked the employees to resume work from Tuesday.

Hundreds of employees of the TSRTC were arrested across the state on Tuesday, as they attempted to rejoin duties after a 52-day long strike. Protests rocked TSRTC depots as the management refused to take back employees who reported to work following the decision of the JAC to call off the strike.

TSRTC Managing Director Sunil Sharma had earlier said that the decision by the employees to resume duties, who were on an ‘illegal strike’, was not legally tenable and asked them to wait till the Labour Commissioner completes the process of hearing their case.

TSRTC has not paid salaries to the employees for the months of September and October, causing distress to thousands of employees. The Chief Minister had not only rejected all the demands of the employees but also claimed that they dismissed themselves by abstaining from work illegally.

In a move that further angered the employees, the government announced that it was privatizing 5,100 TSRTC buses. The High Court last week dismissed a petition challenging the government’s decision and said that the government could go ahead with its plan.

Ajit Pawar To Be Back As Deputy Chief Minister: Sources

Nationalist Congress Party (NCP)’s Ajit Pawar is set to be Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra once again after his dramatic betrayal and homecoming, sources in the party said on Thursday, hours before the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress government’s oath ceremony. But not today.

Ajit Pawar will stay away from the first round of oaths today as Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray is sworn in as Chief Minister along with six ministers at Mumbai’s Shivaji Park.

“I am not be taking oath today. Today six leaders will be taking oath from each party,” Ajit Pawar said after a meeting with uncle and NCP chief Sharad Pawar and other party leaders including Jayant Patil and Praful Patel.

On whether he would be Deputy Chief Minister again, he said: “There is no decision yet. The party will decide”.

Just two days ago, Ajit Pawar resigned as Deputy Chief Minister of the BJP-led Devendra Fadnavis government, which collapsed after failing to reach a majority.

Some reports suggest that Ajit Pawar may face competition for the number two post from Jayant Patil, who replaced him as an NCP legislature party leader after his sudden flight to the rival camp.

If he does manage the post again in a matter of five days, it will be a remarkable bounce-back for the 60-year-old “Ajit-Dada”, who shocked his party by taking the oath with Mr. Fadnavis at 7.50 am on Saturday. Just hours before that, he had attended a joint meeting of the Sena, NCP, and Congress to discuss their “Maha Vikas Aghadi” alliance. He had also been a constant fixture by Sharad Pawar’s side in the meetings of these parties.

The BJP, which is 40 members short of a majority in the Maharashtra assembly, had banked on Ajit Pawar to bring in NCP MLAs. But almost all NCP lawmakers remained with Sharad Pawar.

The Supreme Court, acting on the Sena-NCP-Congress petition challenging the surprise government formation, ordered Mr. Fadnavis to prove his majority immediately. With hardly any room to improve his government’s headcount in the assembly, Mr. Fadnavis resigned.
