Leopard spotted in Delhi, social media videos show big cat jumping from wall

A leopard has been spotted in Delhi's Sainik Farm area, a forest department official said on Saturday.
Two trap cages have been set up to capture the big cat, the official added.
According to Subodh Kumar, a beat officer from the forest department (Asola Bhatti Wildlife Sanctuary), two teams of the department have been deployed.
"We got a call about a leopard that was spotted at night. With the help of the local police, we conducted a search at 9.30 am and spotted the animal near a farmhouse," Kumar said.
It is a full-grown leopard weighing about 80 to 90 kg, he added. The forest department has set up two trap cages and instructed people not to gather near those, a police official said.
Two video clips of the feline have surfaced on the social media, in which the animal could be seen loitering near a farmhouse. In one of the videos, a policeman is seen running, before the leopard jumped from a wall and ran into the jungle.
At least 40 personnel from the forest department and Delhi Police have been deployed in the area, an official said.
"We are alerting the people in the vicinity to remain alert and careful. Sharing the contact of forest officials to inform in case the leopard is seen by anyone," the official said.
In the evening, the Neb Sarai police station staff made public announcements requesting the people to stay inside their homes.&nbsp;

Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar, however, dismissed reports that he has been asked to bring winning Congress candidates from the states to resorts and hotels in Karnataka.
"No MLAs will be going anywhere. Nobody has given me a responsibility or called me. ... I am confident that we will win all the states," Shivakumar, who had made similar arrangements to bring 44 Gujarat legislators during the August 2017 Rajya Sabha elections, told reporters in Bengaluru.

While the battle is largely bipolar, the Bharatiya Janata Party BJP and All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) is in the mix and is set to make the election for 119 seats interesting

 Telangana Election 2023: will Congress and BJP spoil KCR's attempt at returning for third time 

While the battle is largely bipolar, the Bharatiya Janata Party BJP and All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen is in the mix and is set to make the election for 119 seats interesting.

Exit poll predictions have laid the fight bare in the southern state of Telangana with a resurgent Congress predicted to take the regional and ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi head-on. While the battle is largely bipolar, the Bharatiya Janata Party BJP and All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) is in the mix and is set to make the election for 119 seats interesting. If any of the two main parties fall short of the majority 60-seat mark, the saffron party and the political outfit based in Hyderabad could play the kingmaker. The following factors are likely affect the result.
1-Anti incumbency Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is aiming for a hat-trick of electoral victories after winning the polls in 2014&mdash; in united Andhra Pradesh&mdash; and in Telangana in 2018.&nbsp;
Initially thought to be a one-sided fight, the Congress which had witnessed waning of its foot-hood in the state, has sprung a surprise and by the end of campaign is being seen as a serious contender. In 2014, despite splitting Andhra Pradesh in to two states, the grand old party saw its fortunes fade in the 2018 assembly elections. In 2014, the BRS (then Telangana Rashtriya Samiti), had swept the election, riding on the agitation for the state hood led by Rao.
2- Bipolar contest but scope for BJP? The BJP may have unleashed its top leadership including Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the campaign but on the ground the fight remains bipolar.
While BRS is keen on extending its winning run, the Congress has put up a spirited fight to win the polls in the newest state of India. Any of the two main contestants falling short of majority means that BJP and AIMIM could come into play.&nbsp;
The ruling party won 88 seats in 2018 elections and is confident of victory this year. BRS named 115 out of 119 incumbent candidates in August to give a head-start to their campaigning. 3-Muslim Votes&nbsp;
Telangana's Muslim population holds the key for at least 45 of 119 assembly constituencies. The minority group has the potential to sway the election results either in favour of Congress or the BRS or bring it down to a neck to neck fight between the two.&nbsp;
While the Congress has been making an all-out effort to lure Muslims, but with Assad-ud-din Owaisi&rsquo;s AIMIM backing BRS, the possibility of Muslim vote getting divided remains.
The BJP has announced that it would remove the 4% reservation being given to Muslims, thus setting clear focus on the division of Hindu voters between the BRS, the Congress and the saffron group. &nbsp;
4-Corruption &amp; &lsquo;BJP-BRS BHAI BHAI&rsquo; The Congress has kept a focused attack to create a narrative that BRS and the BJP were hand in glove when it came to what it called rampant corruption. Political analysts feel that with KCR meeting Modi and the Congress narrative to claim bonhomie between the BRS and the BJP may hurt Rao&rsquo;s poll prospects.
The ruling party has faced accusations that it overlooked the TSPSC (Telangana State Public Service Commission) paper leak and rampant unemployment. With central agencies probing chief minister Rao&rsquo;s daughter, K Kavitha, in the allegedly Delhi excise scam case, the narrative of being a corrupt party has stuck. The Congress has claimed that Enforcement Directorate went soft on her as the two parties have reached a compromise.&nbsp;
5-Resurgent Congress The resounding victory of the Congress in the Karnataka Assembly polls has changed the political narrative for the grand old party in neighbouring Telangana.&nbsp;
Though it managed only 19 seats in the last elections, the Congress has become a clear challenger to the BRS this time round.
After successfully wooing the Karnataka voters with their 5 guarantees, Congress has promised 6 guarantees to Telangana. (GFX - Rythu Bharosa, Cheyutha, Yuva Vikasam, Gruha Jyoti, Mahalaxmi Guarantee, Indiramma Indlu) The promises on the lines of 'guarantees' being fulfilled in neighbouring Karnataka appear to prove advantageous.&nbsp;
6-Kamareddy &amp; Gajwel segment&nbsp;
KCR, who represents Gajwel in the assembly, is fighting the elections from two segments &ndash; Gajwel and Kamareddy&mdash; in 2023. &nbsp;Both constituencies are witnessing exciting contests. While Congress has fielded its state president Revanth Reddy to take on the chief minister in Kamareddy, BJP has fielded Katipally Venkata Ramana Reddy. The Congress has claimed that CM fighting from two seats is an admission of defeat before the fight began. &nbsp;

In 2018, Congress, who rode the strong anti-incumbency wave to throw the BJP out, which had ruled the state for 15 years look to retain the state on the back of pro-farmer, pro-tribal and pro-poor schemes.

Chhattisgarh election 2023: Bhupesh Baghel's good governance test, will he pass or fail? 

From his popularity to his support for OBCs, tap to know why Bhupesh Baghel could possibly return to power in Chhattisgarh 



The exit polls have given a clear advantage to the Congress as the incumbent CM Bhupesh Baghel has promised a slew of pro-people steps if he returns to power. But if the predictions come true the Congress would have to find a plan to accomodate TS Deo.&nbsp;

Chhattisgarh will witness a 2-cornered contest between the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Congress for the 90-seat assembly.
In 2018, Congress rode the strong anti-incumbency wave to throw BJP out who had ruled the state for 15 years.
The grand old party currently holds 71 seats in the state assembly and is aiming to better its tally by winning 75 seats in the upcoming elections on the back of pro-farmer, pro-tribal and pro-poor schemes. Here are the factors that might decide who wins the state&nbsp;
- Baghel's popularity&nbsp;
While BJP has been banking on the Modi factor in state elections, chief minister Baghel's popularity in Chhattisgarh might give Congress an extra edge. &nbsp;
Baghel, who has developed his image as the son of the soil, has a significant hold over Other Backward Classes and rural voters. This might hurt the BJP as it tries to make a comeback after facing defeat in the last election. - Hindutva&nbsp;
BJP stuck to their Hindutva narrative in Chattisgarh too as they highlighted the incidents of communal violence under the present Congress regime and alleged religious conversions in tribal-dominated areas.&nbsp;
Baghel, on the other hand, successfully countered BJP's long-used political rhetoric of cows and Lord Ram with the Godhan Nyay Yojana and Ram Van Gaman Tourism Circuit projects - OBC reservation&nbsp;
OBCs make up 52% of the state's population and have been demanding a 27% quota.&nbsp;
The issue became a matter of concern for the ruling Congress when the Chhattisgarh High Court last year set aside a 2011 order that raised the overall quota in the state to 58% since it breached the 50% reservation ceiling limit. Baghel's government challenged the High Court decision in the Supreme Court and enacted amendments under which the STs were given 32%, OBCs 27%, &amp; SCs 13%.&nbsp;
While the 2 bills are awaiting the governor's assent, the Supreme Court had directed the government in May to continue to implement 58% reservation. - BJP lacking leadership in the state In the last 5 years where Congress has strengthened its organisational set-up, the BJP have struggled to put their house in order. Since the 2018 assembly polls, the party has&nbsp;
changed its state chief thrice and also changed its leader of opposition in 2022. The saffron party has also virtually sidelined Raman Singh, whose last tenure as CM between 2013 and 2018 was rocked by alleged civil supplies scam and chit fund scam.&nbsp;
- Corruption&nbsp;
Congress government is facing allegations of corruption in coal transportation, liquor sale, District Mineral Foundation (DMF) fund utilisation and Public Service Commission recruitment in the state.&nbsp;
The Enforcement Directorate is also investigating a money laundering case related to an illegal online gaming/betting app. Several Bollywood celebrities were summoned by ED in connection with the Mahadev betting scam case that has marred the reputation of Baghel's government.&nbsp;
Top BJP leaders including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and party president J P Nadda accused Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel of turning Chhattisgarh into an &lsquo;ATM&rsquo; for the Congress. - Welfare&nbsp;
Three flagship pro-farmer schemes have helped the Congress consolidate its position in the rural and semi-urban areas. They have promised welfare schemes worth Rs 47000 crores for the farmers. Meanwhile, the BJP has announced schemes amounting to Rs 38,000 for the welfare of the state&rsquo;s farmers.&nbsp;

Vikram Chandra analyses Assembly Election results.

The BJP is set to win the states of Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh while the Congress is placed comfortably to oust the BRS in Telangana in the closely fought elections ahead of Lok Sabha polls just months away. What are the factors that have led to BJP gaining in three states and what does the election results mean for the Congress and INDIA bloc ahead of 2024.&nbsp;

As BJP is on track to win big in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, NCP chief Sharad Pawar said the outcome of the elections will not impact the INDIA alliance.

Assembly elections: NCP chief Sharad Pawar speaks on INDIA bloc’s stability

As BJP is on track to win big in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, NCP chief Sharad Pawar said the outcome of the elections will not impact the INDIA alliance.

Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar on Sunday said the outcome of the Assembly elections in four states will not have any impact on the INDIA bloc, which comprises more than 25 opposition parties led by the Congress.
After initial rounds of counting, the Bharatiya Janata Party seems set to snatch power from the Congress in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh and retain it in Madhya Pradesh.
The Congress is leading on 65 out of 199 seats in Telangana, while the Bharat Rashtra Samithi, which was ruling the state for the past 10 years, is ahead on 39 seats.
"I don't think this will have any impact on the INDIA alliance. We will be meeting at Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge's residence in Delhi. We will speak to those who know the ground reality. We will be able to comment on it after the meeting only," Pawar said.
One must accept that the current trends are in favour of the BJP, the NCP chief and Opposition stalwart added.
On the K Chandrasekhar Rao-led BRS trailing the Congress in the southern state, Pawar said it would be too early to say anything.
"Earlier, it was assumed the BRS would retain Telangana. However, after Rahul Gandhi's rally, which received a huge response, we realised there will be change in the state," Pawar claimed.
Pawar's NCP is part of the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA), which was formed to take on the ruling BJP in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
Assembly polls were held in the month of November in Chhattisgarh (7 and 17), Mizoram (7), Madhya Pradesh (17), Rajasthan (25) and Telangana (30).&nbsp;

Lok Sabha polls 2024: after state elections, INDIA bloc to meet on December 6

Following the results of assembly elections in five states, INDIA bloc will meet on December 6 to plan for 2024 Lok Sabha polls.

Leaders of the opposition INDIA bloc will meet at Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge's residence in Delhi on December 6 to chalk out a strategy for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, sources said on Sunday.
During the meeting, which will be held in the evening, the leaders are likely to discuss and finalise their plan to take on the BJP ahead of the polls, they said.
The Congress was awaiting the results of assembly elections in five states -- Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Telangana and Mizoram -- before finalising further strategy plans.
Counting of votes for Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Telangana elections began at 8 am on Sunday. Votes for the Mizoram assembly elections will be counted on Monday.
At least 26 parties have come together as part of the INDIA bloc to take on the BJP in the general elections and have so far held three rounds of deliberations in Patna, Bengaluru and Mumbai.
The sources said the opposition leaders would now plan joint rallies that were put on hold due to the assembly elections.
Talks on seat-sharing between regional outfits would also gain momentum now, they said.

Madhya Pradesh became a family."
He added, "We got support from [Union Home Minister] Amit Shah's flawless strategy. Under BJP chief JP Nadda's leadership, party workers worked tirelessly."
