Modi appeals to farmers to adopt natural farming
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday once again appealed to farmers to adopt natural farming and also called for strengthening the dairy sector.
The Prime Minister, who was in Varanasi to inaugurate the Banas Dairy Kashi Sankul at Karkhiyaon, said that natural farming required less inputs, gave better output and was more beneficial because it earned higher returns.
“This method will make farming ‘atmanirbhar’. Those working in startups should also explore possibilities for this,” he stated.
Talking about the dairy sector, he said that the cow is our mother and held in high esteem. Those who ridicule this concept should know that India produces milk worth Rs 8.5 lakh crore every year which is more than the production of wheat or rice.
He said that in villages, cows were a sign of prosperity.
“We need to strengthen the dairy sector. The Banas Kashi Sankul will benefit dairy farmers from several adjoining districts. The dairy plant will also have a bio-gas plant that will take care of its power needs. The dairy farmers will now be able to sell cow dung for the bio-gas plant at a good price,” he said.
The Prime Minister said that milk committees and collection centres would be set up and certification of purity would also be done.
“Now the sweets of Banaras will taste sweeter – whether it is lassi or chhena sweets or ‘malaiyo’ in winter. The dairy plant will enhance the taste of Banaras,” he added.
He will also inaugurate and lay the foundation of 22 other projects.
The Prime Minister was in Varanasi earlier on December 13 to unveil the Kashi Vishwanath Dham Corridor project.
According to the official spokesperson, Modi will also digitally transfer a bonus of about Rs 35 crore to the bank accounts of more than 1.7 lakh milk producers associated with the Banas Dairy.
The Prime Minister said that the double engine governments had ensured double development, and this was obviously unacceptable to ‘some people’ whose politics was based on ‘mafiawad’, parivarwad’ and ‘jaatiwad’.
Earlier, the Prime Minister launched a portal and a logo dedicated to the Conformity Assessment Scheme of milk products, developed by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) with the help of the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB).
The unified logo, featuring both the BIS logo and the NDDB quality mark, will simplify the certification process for the dairy sector and reassure the public about dairy product quality.
In another effort to reduce the number of land ownership issues at the grassroots level, the Prime Minister also virtually distributed the rural residential rights record, “Gharauni”, under the Swamitva scheme of the Union Ministry of Panchayati Raj to over 20 lakh residents of Uttar Pradesh.

According to the sources, a juvenile is among those detained.
One of the accused has been identified as Hritik Kumar alias Roshan (22), a resident of Piprai village in Bihar’s Begusarai district, currently residing near the Urdu School in Mumbai’s Andheri West and working as a bike rider.
The third accused is identified as Rehan (18), a resident of Haryana’s Sonipat.
Earlier, Mumbai’s Juhu Police have registered a case against three unidentified persons in connection with the firing incident involving the actor, in which his caretaker and driver, Firdos Ibrahim Baloch, sustained injuries.
The FIR has been registered under Sections 109(1) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), along with relevant provisions of the Arms Act. Police are investigating the incident to identify and apprehend the assailants and establish the roles of the other suspected individuals involved in the attack.
According to the complaint, the incident took place on the evening of October 18, 2026, at around 7 p.m., when Tiger Shroff was returning by car after playing football.
Two unidentified assailants allegedly opened fire at the vehicle using pistols, injuring Baloch. Another person present in the area was also hit by a bullet during the shooting, police said.
The complaint states that the attack took place while they were returning after the game. As their car exited the school grounds and turned left, two unidentified men allegedly approached and opened fire at the vehicle from the front and its left side.
After the shooting, the assailants fled from the spot.
Meanwhile, interrogation of the detained individuals is underway at Kota City Police Station and further details are underway.

SP to release ‘Jan-Man ka Manifesto’ for UP Assembly polls on Nov 26

The Samajwadi Party (SP) will release its manifesto for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections on November 26, which is marked as Constitution Day, party Chief Akhilesh Yadav announced on Monday.
In a post on X, Yadav said, “The Resolve of ’27: The PDA’s Manifesto. On the sacred democratic occasion of ‘Constitution Day’ on November 26, 2026, we will release the ‘Jan-Man Manifesto’.”
Uttar Pradesh is scheduled to go to polls in 2027.
The announcement came as political parties are gearing up for the upcoming Assembly elections amid the controversy over the Election Commission of India’s (ECI) Special Intensive Review (SIR) process.
Earlier on Sunday, Yadav asked his party workers to remain vigilant at their respective polling booths, while accusing the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of “conspiring to create fake votes”.
He also accused the BJP-led state government of destroying the education and examination system in Uttar Pradesh.
On the other hand, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday took a jibe at the previous SP government in the state, saying that the SP and education are like the “two banks of a river that can never meet”.
The Chief Minister was addressing the Teachers’ and Graduates’ Conference in Lucknow.
Attacking the Akhilesh Yadav-led Samajwadi Party, CM Yogi said: “The ‘Saifai Syndicate’ used to undermine the recruitment process and create an identity crisis (for the youth). People from Uttar Pradesh were even refused rooms in hotels for being associated with the state.”
“During the ongoing Sharadiya Navratri, various events are taking place. Durga Pujas are being organised, Ramlilas are being performed, and there is an atmosphere of celebration today, but before 2017 there used to be chaos and unrest,” he alleged.
“The Samajwadi Party and education are like the two banks of a river — they can never meet!” the Chief Minister added.
“They (SP) are the ones who created an identity crisis for the youth and have wreaked havoc on the education system,” he said while emphasising that a crisis in the education sector means a crisis for society and the country.

Rahul Gandhi’s family real ‘naam chor’: Telangana BJP chief hits back at ‘vote chori’ claims

RAHUL GANDI
Telangana : Telangana BJP State President N. Ramchander Rao on Monday launched a sharp attack on Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha and senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his repeated allegations of “vote chori”, accusing him of misleading the public despite clarifications from the Election Commission of India (ECI) and the Supreme Court.
Reacting to Gandhi’s recent remarks targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar, Rao questioned the Congress leader’s credibility and alleged that he had repeatedly made misleading statements.
“Again and again, Rahul Gandhi is misleading the people with regard to vote chori and says that PM Modi, Shah, and Gyanesh will have to pay a price for it. The Gandhi family, Rahul Gandhi’s family, first of all, they are the chor; they are naam chor. They have stolen the name of Gandhi. And these people are now speaking about vote chori. This is nothing but misleading the people, in spite of several clarifications by the Election Commission and the court, the Supreme Court itself. Rahul Gandhi shamelessly goes around the country and speaks of vote chori,” Rao told Media.
Rao also asserted that India would not witness the kind of violence seen in neighbouring countries, alleging that some political leaders were attempting to promote unrest in pursuit of “regime change”.
“What has happened in Nepal and Bangladesh cannot be repeated or happen in India. Though the CJP leaders, and the Congress leaders, and people like Prashant Bhushan may say that they are fighting for regime change by creating violence, India will never accept violence. India is a democratic country; people have a democratic temperament. And today, what has happened even in France, which we have seen, the violence has been escalated there, violence has been sponsored there, and it is the foreign powers who are sponsoring all these people. India can never play to the foreign powers’ tune,” he said.
Earlier on Sunday, describing the Congress as “guardian of the Constitution”, Rahul Gandhi launched a fresh attack on the government and CEC Gyanesh Kumar for what he called “vote chori”, promising to bring the culprits to book.
Addressing a party rally at Margao in Goa, Gandhi said, “Vote chori is an attack on the Constitution and the Congress party’s dharma as the party is the guardian of the statute.”
“Gyanesh Kumar and others will face the law and pay a price for what they have done,” said Gandhi, challenging the government to file a case against him for his repeated claims about vote theft.
“I already have 45 cases, including defamation, against me, and I challenge them to file a new case for my vote chori claims. I know they will not do this as filing a case against me on this issue will make the matter legal and expose them,” he said.
Gandhi said those who have indulged in vote theft are experiencing sleepless nights in Delhi as they know that they will have to face the Congress someday.
