BJP ignores RSS’ concerns on socio-economic disparity: Maharashtra Congress

The Congress’ Maharashtra unit on Tuesday slammed the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party government at the Centre for disregarding the concerns of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on the question of the growing socio-economic disparity confronting the country.
State Congress chief spokesperson Atul Londhe said that recently the RSS had made its concerns known, against the backdrop of the latest Oxfam report which indicates that “40 per cent of India’s wealth is owned by 1 per cent of the rich, while 50 per cent people own only 3 per cent of the wealth”.
It’s clear from the Oxfam report that under the 9 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s faulty economics, the rich are getting richer but the poor are getting poorer, he said.
Londhe said in the past year, the number of billionaires in India increased from 102 to 166, while the poor can barely afford the bare necessities of life.
He said the wealth of the industrialist Gautam Adani has shot up by as much as 46 per cent in 2022, while almost 64 per cent of the country’s total GST come from the bottom 50 per cent, while only 4 per cent come from the top 10 per cent population.
“These figures prove that the Modi government has failed to curb the economic inequalities in the country. The government has nurtured the interests of the capitalists without concern for the common masses. The poor and middle class are taxed more than the rich,” slammed Londhe.
Added to this is the insensitive announcement of the Modi government giving “free food grains” through the ration to 80-crore people, which “is not a matter of pride”, as it has failed to control inflation, unemployment and depleting incomes.
Londhe pointed out that the Congress has constantly struggled for public interest issues and the ongoing 3,500-kms long Bharat Jodo Yatra of Rahul Gandhi is addressing the issues like inflation, joblessness, poverty, problems of farmers, workers and youth of the country.

Bir Mecca Masjid bomb blast implementation of UAPA

Mumbai: Police has implemented UAPA Act in the Bir Ard Masla Mecca Masjid blast case. On the midnight of March 30, Vijay Agon and Shri Ram Ashok placed a bomb in the mosque and exploded it. This explosion was done with the help of jetliner and detonator. In this case, the police had earlier registered a case under Arms Act and other sections, but after that Muslim organizations had demanded to prosecute the accused under UAPA Act and NSA.
The Beed blast was investigated by the local crime branch, in which the crime branch found that the explosion was very powerful and detonators were also used along with jetliner rods. On this basis, UAPA Act has been implemented on the recommendation of the Crime Branch. Police have registered a case against both the terrorists under sections 16 and 18 of UAPA. Since the Beed blast, Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) is investigating it along with the police. The ATS is investigating the connection and financing of terrorists in this case, including how jetliner rods were made available to the accused and who provided them jetliner rods without license or permit. Along with this, investigation is also going on to find out how many more people and conspirators are involved in this case. ATS said that investigation is going on every aspect and point of the Beed bomb blast, however, ATS has so far questioned many people in this case, including family members and well-wishers of the accused as well as their friends and acquaintances. ATS is trying to uncover the conspiracy before the blast in the Beed Mecca Masjid blast case because before the blast, accused Vijay Agon had released a video and uploaded it on the status threatening Muslims to remove the mosque and only after that the blast took place here. The local police had also registered a case of spreading religious hatred against the accused a day earlier and the mosque was blown up the next day.

Actor Ajaz Khan’s Wife Fallon Guliwala Granted Bail in Drugs Case

Mumbai: Fallon Guliwala, wife of actor Ajaz Khan, who was arrested in November 2024 after narcotics were recovered from her residence, has been granted bail by a special court in Mumbai.
Guliwala had been in custody for over four months. The court has imposed certain conditions for her bail, including the submission of her passport, a restriction on travel, and mandatory attendance before the investigating officer three times a week until the chargesheet is filed.
Her lawyer, Ayaz Khan, argued that she was unaware of the recovered items and that she was not the only occupant of the premises. He also mentioned that the CCTV system was turned off during the raid, and no videography or photography was conducted.
Special Public Prosecutor Vibhavari Pathak opposed the bail plea, stating that a prima facie case existed against Guliwala.
Considering that the seizure process had already been completed, the court granted bail but with strict conditions.
