"The things mentioned in the Congress party's manifesto indicate things that could be dangerous for the country. Congress's Sam Pitroda's statement has been heard by everyone.

&nbsp;UP will form basis for BJP-led NDA winning 400-plus seats: CM Adityanath

Giving a new election slogan, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said the 80 Lok Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh will form the basis for BJP-led NDA winning 400-plus seats in the Lok Sabha polls.
"Assi banega aadhar, NDA char sau paar, phir ek baar Modi sarkar," he said at a press conference here.
"BJP's Sankalp Patra serves as the blueprint for a 'naya, shreshth, aatmanirbhar and viksit Bharat (new, great, self-reliant and developed India). In addition to declaring a war against corruption, it reaffirms the commitment to elevate India from antyodaya to sarvodaya and position it as a global leader," Adityanath said while addressing a press conference at the party headquarters here.
The chief minister highlighted that on the birth anniversary of Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar, the architect of the Constitution, Prime Minister Narendra Modi unveiled the BJP's Sankalp Patra. Its first four copies represent the four social pillars of the country - gareeb (poor), yuva (youth), annadata (farmers), and nari (women), collectively known as GYAN, he said.
"The BJP's Sankalp Patra is Modi's guarantee. The citizens of the country have faith in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's guarantee of making India developed and self-reliant," he said.
"Modi's guarantee means taking forward the concept of viksit Bharat (developed India) through aatmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India) with the spirit of development of all sections of people without discrimination, he said.
The aspirations of the nation today align with PM Modi's vision, which guides our mission, he further said.
The manifesto reveals the BJP's commitment to continuing and expanding the scope of all the poor welfare schemes, including free ration, Ayushman Bharat Yojana, Ujjwala Yojana and Awas Yojana, he said.
The Sankalp Patra also reiterates the party's resolve to achieve a developed and self-reliant India with the spirit of Nation First, he added.
"This is the first general election in which a feeling of confidence about the results is being seen across the country because people have faith in Modi ji's guarantee," he said.
The BJP released its Lok Sabha poll manifesto 'Sankalp Patra' on Sunday, prioritising development and welfare while shunning populist measures and contentious issues like the NRC, with the prime minister pitching for electing a strong and stable government in an uncertain world.&nbsp;

'Ram Temple complex to have 70% green area': official explains map

Ram temple trust general secretary Champat Rai shared map of 'atmanirbhar' Ram Mandir.

Most of the Ram temple compound here will be a green area with hundreds of trees and the complex itself will be "atmanirbhar", the trust said underlining features like its own sewage and water treatment plants, a fire brigade post and a dedicated power line.
About 70 per cent of the 70-acre complex will be a green area, Ram temple trust general secretary Champat Rai told reporters here on Tuesday.
"The green area includes portions which are very dense, and in some segments of it, even sunlight hardly filters through," he said. About 600 existing trees are preserved in the green belt.
In a presentation to the media, Rai said the temple complex will be "atmanirbhar' (self-reliant) in its own way, and will not put any burden on the Ayodhya municipal body's sewage or drainage system.
The complex will have two STPs (sewage treatment plants, one WTP (water treatment plant) and a dedicated electricity line from the power house. A fire brigade post there will be able to source water from an underground reservoir, he said.

Visitors will climb 32 steps from the eastern side to reach the main temple.
The temple complex, built in the traditional Nagara style, will be 380 feet long (east-west direction), 250 feet wide and 161 feet high, he said.
Each floor of the temple will be 20 ft high and have a total of 392 pillars and 44 gates, he added.
The grand temple will have a rectangular periphery called 'percota', a feature that is found in temples in South India, but generally not in the north, he said.
The 'percota' will be 14-foot wide and this periphery will span 732 metres, Rai said.
The four corners of the 'percota' will be dedicated to Sun God, Maa Bhagwati, Lord Ganesha and Lord Shiva.
A shrine dedicated to Maa Annapurna will be constructed on the northern side. On the southern side, there will be shrine for Lord Hanuman, Rai said.
Seven other shrines are planned in the complex, dedicated to Maharshi Valmiki, Maharshi Vashisht, Maharshi Vishwamitra, Maharshi Agastya, Nishad Raj, Mata Shabri and Devi Ahilya -- all associated with Lord Ram's life.

On Tuesday, a large number of people visited the Ram Janmabhoomi site to have a 'darshan' of the deity &ndash; the old idol of Ram Lalla that is housed in a makeshift shrine -- as construction activity continued nearby.
The complex will also have a lift and two ramps at the entrance for the elderly and people with disabilities.
There will be a pilgrim facilitation complex with a healthcare centre and a toilet block. Before their &lsquo;darshan&rsquo;, 25,000 people will be able to deposit their shoes, watches and mobile phones.
A pathway has been built for emergency situations.

The Uttar Pradesh government has moved the Supreme Court challenging the Allahabad High Court order quashing its draft notification on the urban local body elections and directing the state to hold the polls without reservation for the Other Backward Classes.
The state government, in its appeal against the December 27 order, has said the high court cannot quash the December 5 draft notification which provided for reservation of seats in the urban body polls for the OBCs apart from those for the Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and women.
The appeal, filed through advocate on record Ruchira Goel, said the OBCs are a constitutionally protected section and the high court erred in quashing the draft notification.
The Uttar Pradesh government had Wednesday appointed a five-member commission for going into the entire gamut of issues for providing reservation to the OBCs in urban local body polls.
The Lucknow bench of the high court had ordered that the state government should notify the polls "immediately" as the term of several municipalities would end by January 31, while annulling the December 5 draft notification.
The court had directed the state election commission to hold the elections by January 31 after transferring the OBC seats in the draft notification to the general category.

Ex-lover held for chopping woman's body in 6 parts in UP's Azamgarh

UP man held for chopping ex-girlfriend into 6 pieces in an act of revenge

The incident has been reported from Uttar Pradesh’s Azamgarh district, where accused, who was victim’s ex-lover  has been arrested in connection with the killing.

The incident has been reported from Uttar Pradesh&rsquo;s Azamgarh district, where accused, who was victim&rsquo;s ex-lover &nbsp;has been arrested in connection with the killing.

An ex-lover has been arrested in the killing of a woman whose chopped body was found in a well, officials said on Sunday.
Prince Yadav was hit by a bullet in a gunfire encounter with the police on Sunday when he was taken to a spot for the recovery of the head of the woman, police said in a statement.
According to police, Yadav, who was arrested on Saturday, had concealed a country-made pistol at the spot and used it against police in an attempt to flee from their custody.
The incident had come to light on November 15 after some locals found the body inside a well located outside Paschimi village.
The body of the woman, who was later identified as Aradhana, was found in a semi-naked condition, and seemed to be two to three days old, Superintendent of Police (Azamgarh) Anurag Arya had earlier said.
The incident comes in the wake of a similar one reported in Delhi where a 28-year-old man allegedly strangled his live-in partner and sawed her body into 35 pieces which he kept in a 300-litre fridge for almost three weeks at his residence before dumping them across the city over several days.
Yadav with the help of his parents, cousin Sarvesh, and other family members had planned to kill Aradhana, who was stated to be in her mid-20s, out of resentment because she had married someone else and not him.
She lived in Ishaq Pur village of Azamgarh district.
It has so far come to light that Yadav had an affair with the victim, who had got married earlier this year to some other person.
On November 9, Yadav had taken Aradhana on his bike to a temple.
When they reached there, he, with the help of Sarvesh, strangled her in a sugarcane field. The two then cut her body in six parts, packed them in a polythene bag, and threw it into a well, police said.
They threw the head into a pond some distance away.
A sharp-edged weapon, a country-made pistol, and a cartridge have been recovered by police in the case so far.
Sarvesh, Pramila Yadav, Suman, Rajaram, Kalawati, Manju, Sheela, all of whom allegedly helped Yadav in the crime, are still at large.
