Through this show, we share with you the progressive news related to the states or the news that has [00:02:14] garnered headlines. So, let's directly turn to the top lines [00:02:18] in Vande Bharat at this time. We will talk [00:02:22] about the politics of Karnataka, [00:02:26] who come. why there is a war of words over the procession and why there is [00:02:30] an uproar in politics. We will know [00:02:34] becomes green, the environment this today in Vande Bharat. After this, we will talk about [00:02:38] the splendid celebration of the traditional heritage and [00:02:41] tradition of the Nag Mela. We will take you [00:02:45] to Jammu and Kashmir, [00:02:49] that when our procession and then we will talk about the preparations for the Ardha Kumbh, the Ganga Ghat, devotion [00:02:53] and resolve today in Vande Bharat. But [00:02:56] first, let's start with the drama of Karnataka [00:03:00] and talk about how the Gauri Ganesh Utsav is being celebrated with devotion and enthusiasm [00:03:04] all over the country. We know that it is Ganesh [00:03:07] Chaturthi, and in Karnataka too, the entire [00:03:10] festival of Ganesh Chaturthi [00:03:13] And what you are seeing today, was celebrated with great joy and enthusiasm. But if we talk about Mysuru, then [00:03:16] the T. Narasipura [00:03:19] there became the center of controversy along with the organization of the Ganesh Utsav. [00:03:22] Then, a controversy has arisen over the instructions [00:03:27] is being organized here. given by the police regarding the Ganesh Visarjan procession and [00:03:30] Inspector Dhananjay's statement. [00:03:33] What is this whole matter? Let's know through [00:03:37] this report. In [00:03:40] Karnataka, during the Ganesh Utsav immersion, once again, the anti-Hindu [00:03:44] face of the Congress government was seen. [00:03:47] Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar's government is imposing various [00:03:51] unnecessary restrictions on the Ganesh Utsav. [00:03:54] In T. Narasipura, Mysuru, a statement by police officer Dhananjay [00:03:58] regarding the Ganesh Visarjan procession has caused controversy. [00:04:01] He said that there should be no stubbornness regarding the Ganesh procession [00:04:05] and firecrackers should not be burst in front of the mosque. [00:04:08] He also said that if the prescribed rules [00:04:12] are violated, action will be taken. [00:04:15] The controversy that started in T. Narasipura regarding the Ganesh procession [00:04:18] has now become a point of confrontation between the police administration [00:04:22] and political parties. Don't [00:04:26] of Vande Bharat. insist on taking the Ganpati procession in front of the mosque. [00:04:29] Why do you people burst firecrackers there? [00:04:33] What happens there? People of [00:04:37] other religions should also feel joy and respect [00:04:41] when they see you. This time, if firecrackers are burst in front [00:04:44] of the mosque, it will not be good. [00:04:47] The opposition has demanded strict action against the police officer. Along with [00:04:51] this, hundreds of BJP workers, including R. Ashok and C.T. [00:04:55] Ravi, worshipped and immersed 108 [00:04:58] Ganesh idols. And they gave a clear message that whoever [00:05:02] comes forward will be dealt with. The BJP has accused the police [00:05:05] officer of intimidating Hindu youth and ignoring Hindus. [00:05:09] The Congress government in Karnataka has [00:05:13] shown great incompetence regarding [00:05:16] the law and order situation. [00:05:18] This year, [00:05:21] they have made permission compulsory [00:05:24] for Ganpati Chaturthi celebrations. [00:05:27] And their own inspector in T. Narasipura [00:05:31] Taluk, Mysuru district, literally threatens [00:05:34] the boys who want to keep Ganesha, saying [00:05:37] that if [00:05:40] you take the Ganpati idol in front of the mosque, [00:05:44] I will take strict action against you. The Congress [00:05:47] in Karnataka has no interest in protecting [00:05:50] the interests of the Hindu community, nor do they make any [00:05:54] claims about it, nor do they try to even say anything in [00:05:57] favor of the festivities or the processions. Former MP [00:06:01] Pratap Simha also launched a protest against police officer Dhananjay. [00:06:05] He also targeted the Congress government, saying that if the entire Congress party [00:06:08] stands in support of police officer Dhananjay, it shows how morally [00:06:12] bankrupt the Congress has become. [00:06:16] से कितनी दिवालियां हो चुकी [00:06:17] And [00:06:22] for more information on this big news, our correspondent is [00:06:26] with us. We will go directly to Jyoti for this big news, [00:06:29] and Jyoti is present in Bengaluru right now. The question [00:06:33] is that because of the controversial [00:06:35] statements made by Dhananjay, there is an uproar in Karnataka's politics, [00:06:39] and especially, it was a religious [00:06:43] procession, but politics is constantly being played on it. [00:06:47] Yes, Anchal ji, just as Ganesh Chaturthi [00:06:50] was celebrated with great pomp across the country, it was also celebrated in Karnataka, [00:06:54] but this time, the topic of discussion was that in T. Narasipura, Mysuru district, [00:06:58] before the Ganesh Utsav, a peaceful meeting was held. [00:07:02] During that meeting, the police inspector there, [00:07:06] Dhananjay, gave a warning to the Hindu [00:07:10] youth. He said that if your procession goes, it should not go [00:07:13] towards the mosque. Don't burst firecrackers there. [00:07:17] If people of other religions look at us, they should feel [00:07:20] proud. Look, you know that last year also, [00:07:24] there was stone-pelting in Nagamangala, Mandya, Mysuru, [00:07:27] during Ganesh Visarjan. It happened that the youth [00:07:31] of other communities from the mosque had pelted stones [00:07:34] at Hindu youth. What happened then? At that time, the police, [00:07:38] the Karnataka Congress government, arrested not only those who pelted [00:07:42] stones but also the Hindu youth. So this time too, [00:07:46] during this, Hindus gathered there. If you [00:07:49] have to give a strict warning, then [00:07:53] call the other community also, because the stone-pelting started from their side. If [00:07:56] you want to maintain peace, then tell them also [00:08:01] goes, you should not pelt any stones. But here, [00:08:05] it clearly shows that the Congress government is doing [00:08:08] appeasement of only one religion here. But [00:08:12] whether it is the BJP leadership or the Hindu Jagaran [00:08:16] activists, they immersed the Ganpati idols [00:08:19] at the same place where they were warned. [00:08:23] They immersed 108 Ganpati idols and said [00:08:26] that they gave a strong message. Why do you always insult [00:08:30] the Hindu festivals and disrespect their religious beliefs? [00:08:33] If it's Diwali, we burst firecrackers. Don't burst firecrackers. [00:08:37] Your religious concern is only [00:08:41] for Hindu festivals. Everyone says this. [00:08:44] Other people also celebrate. Why don't you say anything about their celebrations? [00:08:48] If we burst firecrackers, it's fine. [00:08:51] But whenever Hindu religious and Hindu celebrations [00:08:55] come, that's when you take all these precautions, because [00:08:58] the people of other communities know that even if they do something [00:09:02] wrong, the government [00:09:04] is theirs, so they will be released. That's what's actually [00:09:08] happening here. An incident is happening, and these [00:09:12] religious rituals are performed, religious processions are taken out, [00:09:16] so it is clearly news that all [00:09:19] religions should be respected. Thank you very much, Jyoti, [00:09:23] for sharing all this information with us. [00:09:27] And now a short break in Vande Bharat. After the break, [00:09:31] we will talk about the Nag Mela. Stay tuned [00:09:35] with this special show [00:09:38] What is hidden [00:09:42] in these boxes? Sometimes in the corner of the cupboard, [00:09:46] and sometimes in the phone's gallery. [00:09:49] What is in them? Some papers, some envelopes. [00:09:53] These are not papers. It's a daughter's education, [00:09:56] the key to a new home, the mornings after retirement. [00:10:00] Every generation has preserved its dreams [00:10:04] somewhere. LIC has also been [00:10:07] a part of those special places, [00:10:11] a promise. LIC, 70 years [00:10:15] of our journey, your trust. How many more innocent [00:10:19] lives will you take in your fire of revenge? [00:10:23] When the spirit is iron, [00:10:26] one gets the courage to fight every monster. [00:10:30] And when it comes to a strong foundation, [00:10:33] Mongia Steel comes to mind, the enemy of monsters like rust. [00:10:37] Mongia Steel, the king of steel. Watch Hawan [00:10:41] from September 11th, only in cinemas. [00:10:44] Welcome everyone after the break. And today we are talking [00:10:48] about a unique fair where the bells of faith [00:10:52] but the colors of folk [00:12:53] Here, along with the temple bells, the colors of folk [00:12:57] culture, the tunes of music, and the thrill of sports [00:13:01] are also seen. In the ancient Nag [00:13:04] Devta temple, the annual fair [00:13:07] started in the morning with traditional rituals [00:13:10] and worship. Devotees [00:13:13] prayed before the deity. For 24 years, [00:13:17] he has kept this tradition alive, and every [00:13:20] year, [00:13:29] there is an increase in all kinds of work, [00:13:33] whether it's cultural programs or other things. [00:13:38] the number of people who have come here, I think [00:13:42] that at least six surrounding panchayats, [00:13:45] all of them from far distances, I am seeing [00:13:49] people who have walked 20-20, 30-30, [00:13:53] 40-40 kilometers [00:14:25] to make this fair beautiful. The most special [00:14:28] attraction for the people who came to the fair [00:14:32] was the confluence of culture and music. [00:14:36] As soon as artists from different [00:14:40] areas started playing [00:14:44] Dogri, Hindi, and Punjabi songs, the atmosphere [00:14:47] immediately turned into a celebration. [00:14:51] The interesting thing was that the artists [00:14:55] were dancing on the stage, and the audience [00:14:58] below also could not stop themselves. [00:15:02] People of all ages were seen dancing [00:15:05] to the rhythm of the music. I am very happy that [00:15:09] when this program happens here, [00:15:13] Dogri, you saw small children... [00:15:16] All our committee members, [00:15:20] young children, and all the new generation [00:15:23] coming forward, [00:15:37] we all give them this lesson [00:15:41] that this fair, this system [00:15:43] of the fair, should continue [00:15:47] so that it promotes Dogri. [00:15:52] is in this. But another [00:15:56] aspect of this fair is attracting people. [00:16:00] Here, from children's cultural performances to rural [00:16:03] sports competitions, the glimpse of local [00:16:06] talents was seen in every program. [00:16:10] Now, we are waiting for that competition, which people [00:16:14] are very interested in. Today, a grand [00:16:17] wrestling match is going to happen, where local wrestlers [00:16:21] along with famous wrestlers from the state and other [00:16:25] states will enter the arena and show their moves. [00:16:28] This fair, which started with faith, has now [00:16:31] turned into a festival of culture, music, and sports. [00:16:35] This event at the Nag [00:17:01] Devta temple shows that traditions [00:17:05] are only [00:17:07] because the unique harmony between man and nature [00:17:10] is visible here. The diversity that we talk [00:17:13] about, because here you will find [00:17:17] an introduction to the historical and cultural heritage, [00:17:21] and great enthusiasm is seen among the devotees. And when [00:17:24] such Nag Melas are organized, we can see how traditions [00:17:28] come alive and how today's youth connect with them. [00:17:32] And on this big news, our correspondent [00:17:34] is with us. Our correspondent is [00:17:38] with us, and we will go directly to him. We would like to know [00:17:42] from you how these Nag Melas are not only a center of attraction, [00:17:46] but also preserve religious beliefs. [00:17:47] हैं, [00:17:51] Yes, absolutely. The Nag Mela is a three-day fair, and [00:17:55] today will be its last day. Before that, let me tell you, [00:17:59] it is a symbol of faith because a few days ago, [00:18:02] the harvest was done in the entire area, and this fair starts [00:18:06] with its celebration. And in the coming days, [00:18:09] since the festival season will start now, this fair marks [00:18:13] a grand beginning. In the fair, cultural [00:18:17] and ancient heritage, if we talk about music [00:18:20] and literature, an effort is being made to preserve them. [00:18:24] Efforts are being made to preserve our ancient culture and heritage. [00:18:28] You saw in the pictures that young children, [00:18:31] school students, and artists from this village [00:18:34] who have been carrying folk from one generation [00:18:38] to another are doing it. And surely, people wait [00:18:42] for this fair all year round. And this fair [00:18:45] is organized at the Nag Devta temple [00:18:48] of Bhamag. And the specialty [00:18:52] of this temple is that people from all over the world [00:18:56] come here, make wishes, and their wishes are fulfilled. [00:18:59] Today, in the afternoon, a grand wrestling match [00:19:04] Wrestling is considered a symbol here to show [00:19:08] your fitness level. And among the youth, [00:19:12] especially if we talk about young children, those who are [00:19:15] 10, 12, 14 years old, a generation that is getting [00:19:19] addicted to drugs, and today we saw that many young people [00:19:23] are going there. And it is an effort of the local people, [00:19:27] a tradition, that people show their strength [00:19:30] here, and an interest remains. People wait for [00:19:34] these days all year round. It's a celebration, [00:19:38] a cultural heritage, and if we talk about [00:19:41] sports, if we talk about fitness, then that is also definitely [00:19:45] seen in this fair. Well, Devendra, if [00:19:48] we talk about its ancientness, how many years [00:19:51] ago was the organization of this fair [00:19:55] started, and what is the belief behind it? [00:19:58] Uh, see, the fair is organized [00:20:02] here at an ancient Nag temple. So, this fair has been celebrated [00:20:06] grandly for 50-60 years. Before that too, [00:20:09] local people used to come here for worship, [00:20:12] and a small prayer was offered because, [00:20:15] as I told you, a few [00:20:18] days ago, the harvest was done in the village, [00:20:22] and after that, there is a festive [00:20:26] atmosphere. People gather here [00:20:30] and celebrate it as a festival. [00:20:33] And after worshipping Nag Devta, the harvest [00:20:37] is first offered at the Nag Devta temple, [00:20:41] and after that, the villagers take it to their homes. [00:20:45] Their belief is that doing so makes their crop good. [00:20:48] And in the coming days, because the festival season [00:20:51] is starting now, and this will be a long [00:20:54] season of two-three months, so a festive atmosphere [00:20:58] is created from this. Yes, absolutely, and a very [00:21:02] beautiful picture [00:21:05] Great India is seen here. Thank [00:21:08] you very much, Devendra, for sharing all this information [00:21:14] talk about Haridwar Ardha Kumbh [00:21:17] 2027, where an ocean of faith [00:21:21] will surge, and another big [00:21:23] change will be seen, [00:21:31] because this time, the identity of the Kumbh [00:21:35] will not be limited to the faith of devotees [00:21:39] and grand events, but along with greenery, [00:21:42] a new identity of environmental conservation [00:21:46] will be visible here. The Mela administration [00:21:50] has started preparations with the theme of Green Earth Kumbh, [00:21:54] in which efforts are being made to develop the Mela [00:21:58] area as a green area along with a temporary [00:22:01] city. Watch this special report. [00:22:04] An campaign has already been launched by us, under which [00:22:08] we have planted trees wherever there was a demand [00:22:11] for planting trees and where it was feasible. And now, [00:22:15] we are working on horticulture at our main points. [00:22:19] The special thing about this initiative is that [00:22:22] Green Ardha Kumbh will not just be a government [00:22:26] campaign, but community participation is also being [00:22:29] ensured in it. Organizations working [00:22:33] in the field of environmental protection and local people [00:22:37] are also joining this campaign. Green Man Vijaypal Baghel's [00:22:40] team is cooperating in the tree plantation drive. [00:22:44] This means that the land where the biggest event of faith [00:22:47] will be held for some time will also be an effort [00:22:50] to create a legacy of greenery for future generations. [00:22:54] The general public [00:22:57] here has also become very conscious [00:23:00] and they are planting trees because our campaign [00:23:04] of daily tree plantation is still going on since Harela. [00:23:08] We would like to distribute a seed [00:23:11] ball as prasad to all the devotees [00:23:16] Our Kumbh Mela is going to be held with a very beautiful [00:23:20] theme. If Haridwar [00:23:24] will not be polluted, which is very commendable [00:23:27] for the people of Haridwar, for the residents of Haridwar. [00:23:31] In Ardha Kumbh 2027, a message of responsibility [00:23:34] towards nature will also be given amidst crores of faiths. [00:23:38] This initiative of Green Ardha Kumbh shows that grand events [00:23:40] and environmental [00:23:44] protection can go hand in hand. So Ardha Kumbh 2027, [00:23:48] where there is Ganga, there are ghats, [00:23:51] and there is faith. Now, how will this harmony [00:23:55] be established? Let's understand with some graphics. Here we will talk [00:23:58] about development, [00:24:02] management, and heritage. [00:24:05] Now, the government is constantly committed [00:24:08] and dedicated to promoting regional tourism. [00:24:12] New dimensions of this will be seen here because [00:24:15] it is a big opportunity to promote local businesses, [00:24:19] smart crowd management because the most important thing [00:24:23] is that many people, many devotees will participate [00:24:26] here enthusiastically. And on this big news, [00:24:30] Renu has joined us right now. Let's go directly [00:24:33] to her from Haridwar. Renu, they say, [00:24:36] greenery and faith. Now, in such a situation, [00:24:40] the preparations for Ardha Kumbh are at their peak, [00:24:44] but how will this Ardha Kumbh be considered very [00:24:48] unique in terms of environmental protection also? [00:24:51] Absolutely, Anchal. Look, there have been Ardha Kumbhs [00:24:55] and Kumbhs before also, each with its own [00:24:59] unique identity and specialty. But this time, the Ardha Kumbh [00:25:02] happening in Haridwar in 2027 is a very [00:25:06] big religious event. Lakhs of devotees [00:25:09] come there every day from abroad. In such a situation, [00:25:13] this time, it is not just limited to a religious event, [00:25:17] but preparations are being made there in a very grand [00:25:21] way from the perspective of environmental protection also. [00:25:24] The theme this time is also Green Ardha Kumbh [00:25:28] 2027. Under this, the entire Ardha Kumbh should look [00:25:32] green to us, we should see greenery everywhere. [00:25:35] Preparations are being made for this there. The Mela officer [00:25:39] also says that inspections are done from time to time, [00:25:43] and some spots have been identified where plants are being planted. [00:25:47] In some places, plants have been planted, and the target [00:25:51] set is to plant 18 lakh plants. [00:25:54] According to that, the entire Mela area of Haridwar, [00:25:58] which has been divided into different sectors and zones, [00:26:01] plants will be planted there. [00:26:13] Not only plants, but when we talk about Green Ardha Kumbh, [00:26:17] then the ghats there, the cleanliness, waste [00:26:20] management, all those arrangements will also be seen there [00:26:24] very well this time so that all the devotees who come [00:26:28] there don't see any garbage, and such arrangements [00:26:31] are made there that when they go to bathe at the ghats, [00:26:35] they see a lot of cleanliness. And separately, [00:26:39] some new ghats are also heard to be made this time, [00:26:42] four ghats have been made there. [00:27:00] So, in this way, preparations [00:27:33] are being made from now because there is only 35 [00:27:36] months left. From January 14, and all [00:27:40] the people are preparing. Every day, some [00:27:43] administration officer is going there, inspecting, [00:27:47] taking stock of the arrangements. Thank you very much, Renu, [00:30:02] for sharing all this information with us. So, if we talk [00:30:06] about Ardha Kumbh 2027, [00:30:07] then it will prove to be very [00:30:11] unique in itself.
