Maharashtra: NCP (SP) Chief Sharad Pawar Takes Jibe At PM Modi’s ‘One Nation, One Election’ Pitch Made During Independence Day Address

Pune: Nationalist Congress Party (SP) chief Sharad Pawar on Monday took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Independence Day address in which the latter pitched for ‘one nation, one election’.
Addressing the nation on the 78th Independence Day, PM Modi had said frequent elections were creating hurdles in the progress of the nation and asserted “the country has to come forward for one nation, one election”.

Speaking to reporters in Pune, Pawar said, “PM Modi was insisting on holding all elections simultaneously but the very next day, there is announcement of three different poll dates for three different states. The PM talks about one thing while the system takes another decision.” The Election Commission last week announced the poll schedule for Haryana and Jammu-Kashmir.

Asked if Maharashtra polls may be held in December due to the state government’s Ladki Bahin Yojana and if there was chance of President’s Rule in the state, Pawar said it was a question that must be directed towards the Election Commission.
Queried about the Eknath Shinde government providing funds for schemes like Ladki Bahin, while those to provide scholarships to students etc are languishing due to lack of money, Pawar said.
“There is no provision of funds for various pending schemes and scholarships but amidst this new schemes that create financial burden are being introduced. I hope the CM and his colleagues will present their stand on this.”
Asked about Deputy CM Ajit Pawar’s statement on not wanting to contest polls anymore, the opposition stalwart said everyone has the right to take such a decision. But, Pawar added, he did not know what the deputy CM exactly meant.

Demand to cancel Bhiwandi Road footpath expansion project will only benefit builder lobby: Azmi alleges

Mumbai Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi has demanded from Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to stop the demolition of religious places, houses and projects in the name of road and footpath expansion in Bhiwandi and protect religious places, temples, mosques and houses. Earlier, the government and MMRDA had spent an additional Rs 1700 crore on projects to protect the victims of the metro project. Abu Asim Azmi demanded from Devendra Fadnavis and Eknath Shinde that in the new development project of Bhiwandi Nizampur Municipal Corporation, a proposal has been made to widen the road by 6-6 meters from Rajiv Gandhi Chowk to Tim Ghar Marg, which is expected to make thousands of people homeless and unemployed, and temples and mosques will also be affected by this project, so this project should be canceled immediately. Azmi alleged that this project is causing a lot of hardship to the people and also endangering the existence of many religious places, so this project and plan should be stopped and a new plan should be prepared. Azmi said that this project and the expansion of roads and footpaths will only benefit the builder lobby, so the government should consider it so that the citizens of Bhiwandi get justice.
