Delhi Elections: Kejriwal accuses BJP of offering gold chains to people, BJP responds

Ahead of the Delhi Assembly elections, Arvind Kejriwal accuses the BJP of trying to buy votes by offering gold chains to voters. He urges Delhi citizens not to sell their votes and highlights the importance of voting for their future.

As the Delhi Assembly elections draw near, political tensions have reached a fever pitch, with Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal making serious allegations against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Kejriwal claimed that the BJP was attempting to buy votes by offering gold chains to potential voters. However, he also accused local BJP leaders of pocketing the chains intended for distribution, rather than handing them out as promised.

गाली गलौज पार्टी वालों के पास बहुत बहुत पैसा हो गया है। अब इन्होंने अपने नेताओं को सोने की चैन बांटने को भेजी हैं। लेकिन इनके नेता बांट नहीं रहे। जो इनके दफ़्तर में जाकर इनसे लड़ता है, उसको चुप करने के लिए उसे दे देते हैं। आपको भी चैन चाहिए तो आप भी इनके दफ़्तर जाकर ले आइए।&hellip;

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
In a message to Delhi voters, Kejriwal urged them to take the chains if offered but emphasized that they should not trade their votes for material incentives. He reminded them that the future of their families and the city depended on the upcoming election results.
Speaking on social media platform X, Kejriwal went further, accusing the BJP of lacking any real agenda for Delhi, focusing instead on personal attacks against him. &nbsp;

&nbsp;
 "Now they have sent their leaders gold chains to distribute among voters. But they are not distributing them. Those who make trouble at their offices are the ones getting chains to stay quiet. If you want the chain too, go and get it from their offices," he said.
&nbsp;
He continued by encouraging voters to hold onto their political integrity: "But don&rsquo;t sell your vote. Your vote is precious. Your vote decides your, your children&rsquo;s, and the country&rsquo;s future. Don&rsquo;t vote for those offering money and chains. Vote for anyone except those buying votes."
BJP MP Manoj Tiwari accused Kejriwal of breaking his promise not to join any political alliance. He also alleged that the voters recognised the AAP leader's &ldquo;corrupt face&rdquo; and said they would &ldquo;say goodbye&rdquo; to him.

We will build good roads in the slum colonies. 5 February is the day to say goodbye to Arvind Kejriwal,&rdquo; Tiwari said.
As the February 5 election looms, Delhi&rsquo;s political landscape is bracing for a heated three-way contest, with the ruling AAP, the BJP, and Congress all vying for power. Despite their previous alliance in the national elections, AAP and Congress have taken sharply different stances for the upcoming local contest.
Amidst the ongoing campaign, both the BJP and AAP have traded harsh accusations, including claims that both parties are trying to manipulate voter rolls to sway the election outcome.
For AAP, this election is crucial as they seek to maintain their dominance in the Delhi Assembly, while the BJP is hoping for a turnaround. In the 2020 elections, AAP secured an overwhelming victory with 62 of the 70 seats, leaving the BJP with only eight. The stakes are high for both parties as they look to shape Delhi&rsquo;s future.

Atishi, Delhi's Chief Minister, filed her nomination for the Kalkaji Assembly seat ahead of the February 2025 elections. She responded to FIR allegations regarding Model Code violations and emphasized her commitment to fair elections.

She added, &ldquo;We went to the Election Commission multiple times, and they assured us that the election would be fair. Investigations are still ongoing against Parvesh Verma, while an FIR has already been filed against me without any investigation.&rdquo;
Earlier this week, Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal participated in a roadshow with former Deputy CM Manish Sisodia. At 43, Atishi became Delhi's third woman Chief Minister, following the footsteps of Sushma Swaraj and Sheila Dikshit. On September 17, 2024, Kejriwal resigned as Chief Minister and submitted his resignation to Delhi's Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena. Atishi claimed the right to form the new government soon after, following Kejriwal&rsquo;s release from Tihar jail in the excise policy case. Kejriwal stated he would return to the Chief Minister's post only if he secured a renewed mandate and received a "certificate of honesty" from the people of Delhi in the February 2025 elections.
Atishi was sworn in as Chief Minister of Delhi on September 22 after being nominated by Arvind Kejriwal. The Delhi Assembly elections will take place in a single phase on February 5, with the vote count scheduled for February 8.

Jallikattu festival begins in Madurai; 1,100 bulls and 900 tamers compete

The famous Jallikattu festival in Madurai kicks off with strict security and registration protocols, attracting participants and attention worldwide. This age-old bull-taming event is celebrated as part of Tamil Nadu's vibrant Pongal festivities.

The highly anticipated three-day Jallikattu festival in Madurai, Tamil Nadu, commenced on Tuesday, with Avaniyapuram village hosting the first event. This event features 1,100 bulls and 900 bull-tamers. The best bull will be awarded a tractor valued at Rs 11 lakhs, while the best bull-tamer will receive a car worth Rs 8 lakhs, along with additional prizes. The remaining two events will take place at Palamedu on January 15 and Alanganallur on January 16. Strict regulations and security measures are in place for the smooth conduct of these events.
According to instructions from the Madurai district administration, each bull is allowed to participate in only one of the three local Jallikattu events. Each bull must be accompanied solely by its owner and a trainer familiar with the animal. Registration for both bull owners and tamers is mandatory via the official district administration website, "madurai.nic.in." All submitted documents are thoroughly verified, and only eligible participants are issued a downloadable token. This token is required for entry into the event, with no exceptions.
The Jallikattu competitions in Madurai, especially in Alanganallur, are internationally recognized as vibrant celebrations of Tamil heritage and rural bravery. With preparations in full swing, this year&rsquo;s events are expected to draw significant participation and global attention. The first Jallikattu of 2025 was held on Saturday at Thachankurichi village in Pudukkottai district, which is known for hosting the most Jallikattu events in Tamil Nadu. The district boasts the highest number of vadivasal (bull entry points) and typically organizes over 120 Jallikattu events, more than 30 bullock cart races, and 50 vadamadu (tethered bull) events from January through May 31.
Jallikattu is a traditional bull-taming sport mostly celebrated in Tamil Nadu as part of the Pongal festival. In the event, a bull is released into a crowd, and participants attempt to seize the large hump on the bull's back, striving to bring it to a halt. The origins of Jallikattu trace back to 400-100 BCE, where it was played by the Ayars, an ethnic group in India. The term "Jallikattu" is derived from two words: "Jalli" (meaning silver and gold coins) and "Kattu" (meaning tied).

Delhi Elections: Kejriwal accuses Congress and BJP of secret alliance 

Arvind Kejriwal accuses Congress and BJP of a secret alliance, while Rahul Gandhi critiques both Kejriwal and Modi. Delhi Assembly elections are scheduled for February.

Arvind Kejriwal, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader, has made a provocative claim ahead of the Delhi Assembly elections, suggesting that the upcoming polls will expose the hidden alliance between Congress and BJP, which he referred to as a "jugalbandi." This statement came after BJP leader Amit Malviya responded to Kejriwal&rsquo;s comments on Rahul Gandhi.
&nbsp;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Kejriwal took to X, saying, &ldquo;I said just one line about Rahul Gandhi and the reply is coming from the BJP. Look how much trouble the BJP is facing. Perhaps this Delhi election will expose the 'Jugalbandi' going on behind the scenes between Congress and BJP for years.&rdquo;
Kejriwal had previously criticized Rahul Gandhi, emphasizing that while Gandhi's focus was on saving his own party, his battle was about "saving the country." He added, &ldquo;Today Rahul Gandhi came to Delhi. He abused me a lot. But I will not comment on his statements. His fight is to save Congress, my fight is to save the country.&rdquo;
&nbsp;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
आज राहुल गांधी जी दिल्ली आए। उन्होंने मुझे बहुत गालियाँ दीं। पर मैं उनके बयानों पर कोई टिप्पणी नहीं करूँगा। उनकी लड़ाई कांग्रेस बचाने की है, मेरी लड़ाई देश बचाने की है।

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
BJP leader Amit Malviya swiftly reacted, suggesting that Kejriwal should focus on "saving your New Delhi seat for now" rather than discussing larger issues.
In a separate address at Seelampur, Delhi, Rahul Gandhi criticized both the BJP and AAP. He questioned the actions taken by Prime Minister Modi and Chief Minister Kejriwal to tackle inflation and support the poor. &ldquo;Is inflation increasing or decreasing? What did Kejriwal and PM Modi say on inflation? They promised to reduce it. Has it been reduced? The poor are getting poorer, and the rich are getting richer,&rdquo; Gandhi remarked.
He also pointed out the disparity in wealth, stating, &ldquo;There are 100 to 150 billionaires controlling the country. They receive all the privileges. Have you ever seen PM Modi speak about Adani and Ambani? Has Kejriwal ever said anything about Adani?&rdquo;
The Delhi Assembly elections are scheduled for February 5, with the vote count taking place on February 8. The deadline for filing nominations is January 17, followed by scrutiny on January 18, and the last date to withdraw candidacies is January 20.

Thirteen akharas performed the first 'Amrit Snan' of the Maha Kumbh on Makar Sankranti, an event held after 144 years of celestial alignments, emphasizing Sanatan Dharma traditions.

Maha Kumbh: Akharas take ‘Amrit Snan’ on Makar Sankranti

Thirteen akharas performed the first 'Amrit Snan' of the Maha Kumbh on Makar Sankranti, an event held after 144 years of celestial alignments, emphasizing Sanatan Dharma traditions.

The Akharas took &lsquo;Amrit Snan&rsquo; of the Maha Kumbh Mela on Tuesday on the occasion of Makar Sankranti.
Shri Panchayati Akhara Mahanirvani and Shri Shambhu Panchayati Atal Akhara were the first ones to take 'Amrit Snan' on Makar Sankranti.
The first 'Amrit Snan' is special in many ways. It took place a day after the first major 'snan' on Monday in the Sangam area on the occasion of 'Paush Purnima'.
Thirteen Akharas of seers from different sects are participating in the Maha Kumbh.
Chants of 'Har Har Mahadev', 'Jai Shri Ram', and 'Jai Ganga Maiyya' chants could be heard as the devotees moved towards the bathing area in groups despite the freezing waters during the cold winter season.
The Akharas had received information about the dates of 'Amrit Snan' and their bathing order.
The Maha Kumbh Mela administration has issued an order about the date, order and time for 'Amrit Snan' of 13 Akharas of the Sanatan Dharma on Makar Sankranti and Basant Panchami, the Uttar Pradesh government said in a statement on Monday.
Akhil Bharatiya Akhara Parishad (ABAP) president Mahant Ravindra Puri told PTI earlier that the first 'Amrit Snan' of this Maha Kumbh would begin at 5.30 am on Tuesday.
He also said the common terms such as 'shahi snan' and 'peshwai' associated with the Kumbh have been changed to 'Amrit Snan' and 'Chhavni Pravesh' respectively.
Asked what prompted them to coin the terminologies, Mahant Puri, who is also the president of the Mansa Devi Temple Trust in Haridwar, said, "All of us speak words in Hindi and Urdu. It cannot happen that we do not speak any Urdu word."
"But we thought that when it comes to our Gods, we should make efforts to have a name in Sanskrit language or have a 'Sanatani' name. Our intention is not to make it as Hindus versus Muslims," he added.
This 'Amrit Snan' will be the first such snaan after the grand Pran Pratishtha of Lord Ram Lalla in Ayodhya, according to Ashutosh Varshney, the convener of Prayagraj-based Ram Naam Bank (an NGO).
"It is a divine coincidence that two 'snaans' in the Maha Kumbh are on consecutive days. The major 'snan' of 'Paush Purnima' was on Monday while the Makar Sankranti is on Tuesday," Varshney said.
"As a result of this, a large number of devotees, seers and commoners from different walks of life have already descended on the holy city of Prayagraj," he added.
The present edition of the Kumbh is being held after 12 years, though seers claim the celestial permutations and combinations for the event are taking place after 144 years, making the occasion even more auspicious.

Delhi Elections: ECI clears Avadh Ojha’s voter ID transfer

The Election Commission of India has approved AAP's request to transfer Avadh Ojha's voter ID to Delhi, ensuring his participation in the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections.

The Election Commission of India (ECI) on Monday granted approval for the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) to transfer the voter ID of Avadh Ojha, its candidate from Patparganj, to Delhi. The decision followed a meeting between senior AAP leaders and top ECI officials.
The AAP delegation, which included Delhi Chief Minister Atishi, AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, and party MP Sanjay Singh, met with ECI representatives. Post-meeting, Kejriwal confirmed that the Election Commission had granted the party&rsquo;s request for the transfer.

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
The issue at the center of the meeting was the transfer of Avadh Ojha&rsquo;s voter ID from Greater Noida to Delhi. Kejriwal emphasized the importance of this transfer, stating that it was necessary for Ojha to be able to file his nomination papers and contest the election.
Kejriwal mentioned that Ojha had submitted Form 8 on January 7, the final day for such transfers. However, he accused the Delhi Chief Electoral Officer of unilaterally changing the deadline to January 6, an act Kejriwal labeled as "unlawful" and suggested was intended to prevent Ojha from running for election.
Besides Ojha&rsquo;s issue, the delegation also raised concerns about irregularities in voter registrations linked to addresses of senior BJP leaders in the New Delhi constituency.
Arvind Kejriwal had previously written a letter to the Chief Election Commissioner, highlighting the issue of alleged voter list irregularities in New Delhi. Kejriwal, who represents New Delhi in the assembly, will face BJP&rsquo;s Parvesh Verma and Congress&rsquo; Sandeep Dikshit in the upcoming elections.
In his letter, Kejriwal expressed concerns over BJP&rsquo;s efforts to manipulate voter lists, accusing the party of trying to undermine the integrity of the election process in New Delhi.
Kejriwal stated in the letter, "I write to you with grave concern regarding the repeated attempts by members of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to manipulate the voter lists in the New Delhi Assembly constituency in a systematic effort to subvert the integrity of the upcoming elections."
The Delhi Assembly elections are set to take place on February 5, with the results expected to be declared on February 8.

I am not just a representative, I am a part of their lives." &nbsp; Taking a jibe at the BJP, she accused the party of being anti-poor. She said the BJP is a 'jhuggi virodhi' and 'gareeb virodhi' party and added that the AAP is committed to uplifting the marginalised communities.
Atishi is set to face a stiff challenge in the constituency from BJP's Ramesh Singh Bidhuri, a seasoned politician and her main opponent in the constituency.
Bidhuri, a former MP from South Delhi and a three-time MLA from Tughlakabad, is known for his strong political record, winning elections in 2003, 2008, and 2013.

India summons Bangladesh diplomat following Dhaka's action against Indian envoy

India and Bangladesh have summoned each other's envoys following recent tensions over the Border Security Force's actions along the Indo-Bangladesh border.

The Ministry of External Affairs summoned the Deputy High Commissioner of Bangladesh to India, Nural Islam, on Monday, following a similar action taken against the Indian High Commissioner to Dhaka, Pranay Verma, on Sunday.
This move comes after the Bangladesh Foreign Ministry raised serious concerns regarding the recent activities along the Indo-Bangladesh border. Bangladesh's Foreign Secretary, Ambassador Md Jashim Uddin, expressed the country's "deep concern" over the actions of India's Border Security Force (BSF). These activities, including the alleged unauthorized attempt to construct barbed wire fencing, have led to tensions and disturbances in the region.
The Bangladesh Foreign Secretary also addressed the recent tragic incident involving the killing of a Bangladeshi citizen in Sunamganj by the BSF. He conveyed "deep concern and disappointment" over the incident.
In response, Indian High Commissioner Pranay Verma emphasized the importance of a cooperative approach between the two countries to address border security issues. He stated that India is committed to ensuring a crime-free border, focusing on tackling smuggling, criminal activities, and human trafficking. Verma also highlighted the ongoing communication and cooperation between India's BSF and Bangladesh's Border Guard (BGB), aiming to enhance understanding and joint efforts to address border security challenges.
"We are committed to maintaining effective cooperation between our forces to combat crime and secure the border," Verma told reporters after his meeting with the Bangladesh Foreign Secretary.

Delhi Police have apprehended a private school student responsible for sending bomb threats to over 400 schools.

Big reveal! Political party links in Delhi school bomb threats, say Delhi Police

Delhi Police have apprehended a private school student responsible for sending bomb threats to over 400 schools.

Delhi Police, on Tuesday, revealed that a private school student, arrested for sending bomb threats to various educational institutions, had emailed over 400 schools with the threats. Special CP Law and Order, Madhup Tiwari, shared that the student's family had connections to an NGO, which had ties to a particular political party and had previously been involved in legitimizing Afzal Guru. The student, a Class 12 pupil, had been sending hoax bomb threat emails to schools since last year, aiming to avoid taking his exams. The police launched an extensive investigation after receiving multiple bomb threats that began in February of the previous year. Tiwari explained that the emails were sent in a highly sophisticated manner, often using VPNs, making it difficult to trace the sender. &ldquo;The emails were sent in a very sophisticated manner, including the use of VPNs. Hence, we had difficulties in tracing the emails,&rdquo; he said.
The breakthrough came on January 8, when the police identified the juvenile as the primary suspect. Upon his arrest, it was revealed that he had sent bomb threat emails to more than 400 schools. &ldquo;We suspected an anti-national or sabotage angle. When we did the profiling of the family of the juvenile as part of the investigation, we found that one of his parents is connected to an organisation with deep connections to an NGO. As per our preliminary info, it was found that the NGO has deep connections to a particular political party,&rdquo; Tiwari said.
Additionally, the suspect was linked to more than 250 bomb threat emails sent to schools on May 1 of the previous year, among other incidents. &ldquo;This is a preliminary investigation. Further investigation is yet to be done,&rdquo; Tiwari confirmed.
The student had also sent bomb threat emails to 23 schools last Thursday, which the police were able to trace through Gmail. Upon further questioning, the student admitted to sending the emails with the help of other students using VPNs.
This development came amid mounting criticism of Delhi Police&rsquo;s handling of the bomb threats, which had disrupted school activities in the city. Chief Minister Atishi, former CM Arvind Kejriwal, and former Deputy CM Manish Sisodia expressed strong disapproval of both the Delhi Police and the central government for their failure to curb the ongoing bomb threats.
In December, bomb threat emails were sent to at least 40 Delhi schools, including DPS RK Puram and GD Goenka School in Paschim Vihar, demanding a ransom of $30,000. Similar threats were also sent to more than 30 schools on December 13 and 14.

 Speaking at the 9th Armed Forces Veterans' Day event, Singh stressed, "Jammu and Kashmir is incomplete without PoK. PoK is nothing more than a foreign territory for Pakistan...

&nbsp;
The Defence Minister also reflected on the 1965 India-Pakistan war, pointing out that the then Lal Bahadur Shastri government missed an opportunity to end cross-border terrorism. He remarked, "The war between India and Pakistan was fought in Akhnoor in 1965. India succeeded in thwarting the efforts of the Pakistani army... Pakistan has been promoting illegal infiltration and terrorism since 1965... Cross-border terrorism would have ended in 1965 itself, but the then central government was unable to convert the tactical advantage gained in the war into a strategic advantage."
Singh acknowledged the sacrifice of Indian Muslims who have fought against terrorism, adding that over 80 percent of terrorists infiltrating India come from Pakistan.

Six soldiers injured in mine blast along LoC in Jammu and Kashmir

Six army personnel were injured in a mine blast along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri district. The soldiers, on patrol duty in the Nowshera sector, stepped on a landmine.

At least six Army personnel sustained injuries following a mine blast along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Makri area of Bhawani sector, located in Jammu and Kashmir&rsquo;s Rajouri district. Fortunately, all soldiers are reported to be in stable condition and are receiving treatment at the Army hospital in Rajouri.
The incident occurred when the soldiers were on a routine patrol near Khamba Fort in Nowshera sector at approximately 10:45 am. One of the soldiers accidentally stepped on a landmine, triggering the explosion. The injured personnel were quickly transported to the hospital, and their injuries, though serious, were not life-threatening.
The areas near the LoC are often equipped with landmines as part of an anti-infiltration obstacle system. These mines, however, can sometimes be displaced by rain, leading to accidents. This unfortunate incident underscores the inherent dangers soldiers face while operating in such volatile zones.
The Indian Army has launched an investigation to understand the cause of the blast and to enhance safety measures for personnel serving in these high-risk regions.
Recently, four soldiers were killed in a road accident in J&amp;K&rsquo;s Bandipora district when a vehicle skidded off the road and fell into a deep gorge due to bad weather and poor visibility. Two soldiers were injured in the incident.

Parliamentary panel summons Meta over Zuckerberg’s Indian election remarks

Meta faces summons after Mark Zuckerberg&rsquo;s comments on India&rsquo;s 2024 elections, which included factual inaccuracies about incumbent losses.

Social media giant Meta is set to face a summons from a Parliamentary Standing Committee following remarks made by its CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, regarding India's 2024 general election. Nishikant Dubey, BJP MP and chairman of the House panel on Communication and Information Technology, announced that Meta would be called to account for spreading misinformation about India's democratic processes.

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
&ldquo;Misinformation on a democratic country maligns its image. The organisation would have to apologise to the Parliament and the people here for this mistake,&rdquo; Dubey said in a post on X.
The controversy stems from Zuckerberg&rsquo;s statements during a podcast on January 10, where he inaccurately suggested that incumbent governments, including India&rsquo;s, lost power in the elections held in 2024. Discussing the global political landscape post-COVID, he remarked, &ldquo;2024 was a very big election year around the world, and all these countries, India, had elections. The incumbents basically lost every single one. There is some sort of a global phenomenon &ndash; whether it was because of inflation or the economic policies to deal with COVID or just how the governments dealt with COVID. It seems to have had this effect that&rsquo;s global.&rdquo;
Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw was quick to counter Zuckerberg&rsquo;s claims, pointing out the inaccuracies. He highlighted that the people of India had, in fact, reaffirmed their trust in Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the NDA government during the elections.

The celebration of Makar Sankranti is happening nationwide on Tuesday, with people marking the Sun&rsquo;s transition from Sagittarius to Capricorn, signifying the start of Uttarayan. On this day, it is believed that taking a holy dip in rivers like the Ganga and Yamuna cleanses sins and brings spiritual merit. The day is dedicated to acts of charity and devotion, and traditional dishes like sesame-jaggery laddus and khichdi are enjoyed. Kite flying, symbolizing energy and joy, is a key tradition during this festival.
In Prayagraj, the first Amrit Snan of Maha Kumbh 2025 also coincided with Makar Sankranti. Sadhus from the Mahanirvani Panchayati Akhada took a holy dip at the Triveni Sangam. Uttar Pradesh Principal Secretary of Urban Development Amrit Abhijat reported that nearly twenty million devotees participated in the first 'Amrit Snan' of the Maha Kumbh on this auspicious day.
