Bahujan Samaj Party president Mayawati Wednesday accused the BJP of instigating religious sentiments in order to divert people’s attention from issues like unemployment, poverty and rising inflation.

Addressing a press conference here, Mayawati said that the religious places were being deliberately targeted and asked people to be alert to this conspiracy of the BJP.

She warned that the situation in the country could take a turn for the worse in the coming days.

The BSP president said that issues like Gyanvapi mosque, Mathura and Taj Mahal were being raised to weaken the nation.

“The names of places belonging to a particular religious community are also being changed one by one. This will disturb peace, harmony, brotherhood and lead to mutual hatred in the country. The general public of this country should be alert. This will neither benefit the country nor the general public,” she stated.

Houthi leader threatens to renew attacks on ‘Israeli-linked vessels’ as Gaza aid blockade continues

Published

on

Sanaa, March 11: Yemen’s Houthi leader, Abdulmalik al-Houthi, announced that his group is preparing military operations against Israeli-linked vessels if humanitarian aid does not reach Gaza within a four-day deadline he set last week.

“We stand by our deadline for the entry of aid into the Gaza Strip, and our armed forces are ready to execute operations,” al-Houthi declared in a televised speech on the group’s Al-Masirah TV channel on Monday.

The Houthi leader had previously issued a four-day ultimatum to mediators between Israel and Hamas to facilitate the resumption of aid deliveries to Gaza. This deadline is set to expire on Tuesday, Xinhua news agency reported.

The Houthi group, who control much of northern Yemen including the capital Sanaa, has launched drone and rocket attacks against Israeli-linked ships in the Red Sea and Israeli cities since November 2023, expressing support for Palestinians amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.

In response, Israel has conducted retaliatory strikes targeting Houthi military sites in Sanaa and the Red Sea port city of Hodeidah.

The Houthi attacks ceased following a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas. However, the group now threatens to resume operations if the blockade on Gaza is not lifted.

The Houthi group, which controls large swathes of northern Yemen, including the capital Sanaa, has previously targeted vessels they say are linked to Israel in the Red Sea as support for Palestinians during the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

Israel has targeted the Houthis in Yemen five times during the ongoing conflict. The most recent strike occurred on January 10. The initial attack took place on July 20, 2023, followed by additional strikes on September 29, December 19 and December 26. The port of Hodeidah was repeatedly hit in these airstrikes.

Since November last year, the Houthi group, which controls much of northern Yemen, has been conducting missile and drone attacks on what it said were “Israeli-linked” ships in regional waters and beyond, as well as targets in Israel, to show solidarity with Palestinians amid their conflict with Israelis in Gaza.

Published

Mumbai: Maharashtra’s budget is a budget of disappointment and frustration, this budget is the budget of contractors, this allegation has been made by former Chief Minister of Maharashtra and Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray.

He said that funds have been allocated in the budget for the benefit of Adani. When Adani’s company is the caretaker of the airport, then why will the government give it funds and why will the government do its work? The only thing said in the budget is that tomorrow the moon will rise and you will get Vitamin D. This is a budget of regret and disappointment.

This budget has been presented to fill the pockets of contractors. It has only talked about focusing on development works, but not a single new scheme has been presented in it. Many schemes in the budget are old and it is an imaginary budget. Only promises have been made in it and it has been said that the work will be completed tomorrow. Loan waiver was promised for farmers, but it has not been implemented yet.

Uddhav Thackeray said that this budget is about Ilham Abhas Yojana. Sugar mills are given assistance, but farmers’ dues are not paid. Why is the government not giving funds to BMC and BEST? This is a betrayal of the people. There is no proposal to control the price of essential commodities in this budget.
