Sri Lankan Govt Accuses Opposition of Crime Links

The Sri Lankan government claims opposition parties are linked to crime amid rising violence. Political tensions and public safety concerns grow as intelligence exposes links.

Sri Lanka accuses opposition of organized crime ties amid rising violence

Sri Lanka's government accuses opposition of crime ties amid rising gun violence. Intelligence links politicians to organized crime, as political tensions and public safety concerns rise.

The Sri Lankan government on Tuesday, citing intelligence reports, accused opposition parties of maintaining links with organised crime and underworld gangs.
&ldquo;We have intelligence reports saying the Samagi Jana Balawegaya, Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna, and United National Party have links with organised crime and their former ministers and politicians are linked with underworld gangs," Public Security Minister Ananda Wijepala said in the parliament.
Wijepala was responding to a statement by the main opposition leader, Sajith Premadasa, who raised concern over the rising rate of gun violence and murders since January this year.
&ldquo;Fifty-two killed in 79 incidents of shooting over the last eight months. These are happening while the government maintains that such incidents do not threaten national security," Premadasa said.
He asked what action the government had taken to tackle the shooting incidents.
Wijepala said intelligence reports on underworld links would be revealed, and all such politicians will be arrested soon.
Wijepala admitted to the incidents and said the situation was complicated due to the involvement of opposition figures.
&ldquo;Despite clashes between rival underworld gangs, the situation does not threaten national security," Wijepala stressed.
Wijepala said both Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya and opposition leader Sajith Premadasa allegedly received death threats.
&ldquo;It was a Gmail threat to the prime minister. We have obtained information from Google on the IP address, which has been traced to Germany and the Netherlands," Wijepala said.
Wijepala said the investigation proved that the threat to Premadasa was false.

PM Modi criticizes opposition for family-first politics, emphasizing inclusive development with projects in Varanasi.

Modi Criticizes Opposition; Emphasizes Development

PM Modi criticizes opposition parties for family-centric agendas, underscores his government's focus on inclusive development at a Varanasi event.

PM Modi accuses opposition of family-centric agendas, highlights his government's inclusive development initiatives during the launch of 44 projects in Varanasi.

In a swipe at opposition parties, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said those hankering for power focus solely on promoting their own families, while his government works on the theme of inclusive development.
Addressing a gathering after laying the foundation stone of 44 projects worth Rs 3,880 crore here, he said, "Our guiding mantra in serving the nation has always been 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas'. With this spirit, we continue to move forward for the betterment of every citizen".
He said in contrast, those who are power hungry play political games day and night, driven not by national interest but by a single-minded focus on family-based support and family-centric development.
"Those who play games day and night only to grab power, their principle is 'parivar ka saath parivar ka vikas' (family support, family development)," the prime minister said in his Parliamentary constituency.
Among the projects inaugurated by Modi were schemes focused on rural development, including 130 drinking water projects, 100 new anganwadi centres, 356 libraries, a polytechnic college in Pindra, and a government degree college, Varanasi Divisional Commissioner Kaushal Raj Sharma said.
The prime minister also inaugurated a transit hostel at the police lines and police barracks in Ramnagar and four rural roads, he said.
Governor Anandiben Patel and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath were among those present on the occasion.&nbsp;

Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge sharply criticized Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Wednesday, calling him the "biggest spokesperson" for the government. In response to the opposition&rsquo;s motion to remove Dhankhar, Kharge stated that the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha was the primary cause of disruptions in the upper house. He emphasized that the position of Vice President, historically seen as impartial, had never been subject to such a motion since 1952, as previous officeholders had always been unbiased and adhered to the rules of the House.
Kharge accused Dhankhar of deviating from the tradition of neutrality, arguing that his actions reflected more politics than procedure. He further accused the Rajya Sabha Chairman of stifling important discussions raised by the opposition, claiming that Dhankhar regularly prevented opposition leaders from speaking and deliberately blocked debates on critical issues.
The Congress leader also alleged that Dhankhar was more loyal to the ruling BJP than to the Constitution, describing him as a spokesperson for the government instead of an impartial chair. Kharge remarked that the Vice President seemed more focused on advancing his political agenda than on upholding the dignity of the House.
Kharge clarified that the opposition&rsquo;s motion was not motivated by personal animosity but by a commitment to preserving democratic values, the Constitution, and the integrity of the Rajya Sabha. He stated that the INDIA bloc had taken this step after careful deliberation and due consideration of the prevailing situation, underscoring the importance of safeguarding the nation's democratic institutions.

PM Modi slammed Opposition alliance before no-confidence debate in Lok Sabha

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Tuesday that the no-confidence motion brought by the opposition is a reflection of mutual distrust among INDIA bloc parties as they want to test who is with their proposal and who is not, sources said.
In his address to party MPs at the BJP parliamentary meeting, he described the opposition alliance as 'ghamandia' (marked by arrogance) and congratulated the party's Rajya Sabha members for the "semi-final" win in voting on the Delhi services bill.
Modi, sources said, noted that some opposition members had described the voting in Rajya Sabha as a semi-final before the 2024 Lok Sabha polls as he exuded confidence about the BJP's prospects in the national elections.
The Delhi services bill secured parliamentary approval on Monday after the Rajya Sabha passed the contentious measure that will give the Centre control over bureaucracy in the national capital, with the BJP-led NDA thwarting opposition challenge in the keenly-watched numbers game.
With the ruling party certain to defeat the no-confidence motion in Lok Sabha, where it enjoys a strong majority, Modi told party MPs hit "sixers" on the last ball before the 2024 polls.
He also referred to his 2018 speech in which he had wryly wished to the Opposition to bring a no-confidence motion against his government in 2023.
In a swipe at opposition parties, the prime minister said their leaders speak of social justice but harmed it most with their dynastic, appeasement and corrupt politics.
He reiterated his call for corruption, and dynastic and appeasement politics to quit India.

RJD MP Manoj Jha said, "We know that the numbers are not in our favour, but democracy is not just a game of numbers."

No-confidence motion: Opposition admits it doesn't have numbers, explains rationale behind move

RJD MP Manoj Jha said, "We know that the numbers are not in our favour, but democracy is not just a game of numbers."

With the Opposition moving a no-confidence motion in Parliament against the Modi government amid an impasse over the Manipur situation, an RJD MP explained the rationale behind the decision despite not having adequate numbers.
RJD MP Manoj Jha on July 26 said, "We know that the numbers are not in our favour, but democracy is not just a game of numbers."
"Manipur is burning. People of Manipur are waiting for PM to open his mouth. He was not opening his mouth any other way. Maybe PM can be made to speak through a no-confidence motion," he added.

Opposition to bring no-confidence motion against Modi govt: reports

According to news reports, some opposition parties are planning to bring in a no confidence motion against the Modi govt in Lok Sabha

According to news reports, some opposition parties are planning to bring in a no-confidence motion against the Modi govt in Lok Sabha

Some parties of the opposition INDIA alliance are likely to move a notice for a no-confidence motion against the government in the Lok Sabha in an attempt to make Prime Minister Narendra Modi speak in Parliament on the Manipur violence, sources said on Tuesday.
A proposal to submit the notice was discussed at a meeting of the constituents of the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) on Tuesday morning.
It was decided after weighing various options that this would be an effective way to compel the government to initiate a discussion on the issue, the sources said.
The opposition strategy to corner the government on Manipur will continue in the Rajya Sabha as well, the sources said. "I am not aware of their move but if they are doing so they should know that last time they brought a no-confidence motion, BJP came back to power with a stronger majority of over 300 seats and the same will happen again and we will get more than 350 seats," Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi said in response.
The first no-confidence motion against the Modi government in the Lok Sabha was moved on July 20, 2018. The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) won with a thumping majority with 325 MPs voting no and only 126 in favour of the no-confidence motion.
Although there was little doubt over the outcome of the 2018 no-trust vote on the floor of the Lower House because of the sheer number of MPs in the NDA&rsquo;s kitty, the debate gave an opportunity for the opposition to attack the government on a range of issues including farm distress, slow economic growth and rising incidents of mob lynching.&nbsp;

The Lower House of Parliament was adjourned at around 11:30 am for half an hour.

As many as 17 opposition parties on Friday resolved to fight the 2024 Lok Sabha elections unitedly to defeat the BJP and work with flexibility by setting aside their differences.
Addressing a joint press conference after an almost four-hour-long meeting, during which leaders of 17 parties expressed their views, Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar said the leaders will meet in the next few days to give final shape to their plan of fighting together.
