ED raids in Jharkhand had an unexpected impact on a BJP MP in Ranchi. The MP had put in a request for railway reservation for his family under government quota. When the chart was prepared, he was surprised to find that his request had not been accommodated as the entire central quota for reservation had been used by ED team which was moving between cities.
On a different platform
X is turning out to be a different kind of bird in this Lok Sabha polls. All social media platforms including X complied with ECI’s takedown orders on posts seen as violative of the model code of conduct in 2019 and most like Meta continue to do so. However, X appears to be taking a different line in 2024. When the polls began, it went on to publish EC takedown orders. Just recently, it held back the takedown of BJP’s Karnataka post right until May 8 — a day after ECI made its direction public. Love in the air
Political leaders get a lot of affection from their followers. However, sometimes it can be a little embarrassing. Recently, while addressing a rally in Satara for BJP candidate Udayanraje Bhosle, Maharashtra deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis was interrupted by a fan from the audience, who shouted, “Saheb, we love you!” For a second Fadnavis and those on stage were taken aback, but Fadnavis quickly gathered his wits and responded with “I also love you too”, evoking laughter among the crowd and those on the stage.
