[00:01:03] in any activity that disturbs peace. There is a
[00:01:05] ban on it.
[00:01:11] of accountability. India lashed out at the UN

[00:01:52] And on the first day of Sharadiya Navratri, devotees flocked to the temples.
[00:01:56] Mother Shailputri is being worshipped from all over the country. The
[00:02:00] atmosphere was filled with
[00:02:02] the chants of the goddess.
[00:02:10] And now let's know all these news in detail. Prime Minister
[00:02:14] Narendra Modi is on a visit to Chennai today. He will
[00:02:17] inaugurate projects worth ₹1300 crore in Tamil Nadu
[00:02:20] today. The Prime Minister will flag off the second phase
[00:02:24] of the Chennai Metro Rail project, constructed at a cost of approximately
[00:02:27] ₹4900 crore. metro rail service.
[00:02:30] had a special conversation. Let me make you listen. When the Prime Minister
[00:02:52] comedy?
[00:03:00] On the other hand, I am bringing
[00:03:03] a very serious issue before all of you, about
[00:03:07] the daughters of this country. We all
[00:03:10] know that on
[00:03:13] October 9,
[00:03:16] 2026, the Congress party's
[00:03:18] Lok Sabha member Bimol
[00:03:21] Akoyjam was
[00:03:25] dismissed from JNU
[00:03:29] due to sexual misconduct.
[00:03:31] So you were watching the BJP press conference and Bansuri
[00:03:35] Swaraj was making
[00:03:36] a complaint
[00:03:40] The launch of Chennai Metro Phase of harassment against
[00:03:43] the honorable MP, who belongs to the Congress party,
[00:03:47] the MP from Inner Manipur, Bimol Akoyjam.
[00:03:50] After the allegations
[00:03:53] were made,
[00:03:56] an internal committee was set up
[00:03:58] under the act. This committee, after
[00:04:02] examining all the evidence, all the witnesses, and all
[00:04:05] the survivors' witness testimonies,
[00:04:08] and after investigating all
[00:04:12] the facts reported in the media reports,
[00:04:16] immediately dismissed Bimol
[00:04:19] Akoyjam from his job.
[00:04:22] Friends, this disciplinary action
[00:04:26] raises very serious questions.
[00:04:32] The kind of allegations that have emerged
[00:04:36] from media sources and media reports
[00:04:38] are soul-stirring.
[00:04:42] They are soul-shattering.
[00:04:45] I would like to elaborate on the nature of the allegations.
[00:04:49] The Congress MP, who
[00:04:52] was a professor at JNU,
[00:04:55] sexually harassed female students.
[00:04:58] सेक्सुअली इ
[00:05:13] Media reports also alleged
[00:05:16] that the Congress MP used to conduct
[00:05:20] academic assessments
[00:05:23] of these female students at his home late at night.
[00:05:26] He even conducted a viva
[00:05:29] examination until
[00:05:33] 11:40 at night. Not only this,
[00:05:36] allegations of sexually explicit classroom
[00:05:39] conduct have also emerged.
[00:05:43] These are all very serious allegations,
[00:05:46] very grave allegations.
[00:05:49] Today, through all of you, I want
[00:05:53] to ask Rahul Gandhi and his
[00:05:56] Congress party, is "Smash the
[00:05:59] Patriarchy" just a political rhetoric
[00:06:02] for you, a political slogan?
[00:06:05] It seems that Congress's
[00:06:09] hypocrisy is coming out
[00:06:13] from this incident. Feminism for
[00:06:16] the Congress party starts with just a hashtag
[00:06:19] and ends at the threshold
[00:06:24] The surprising thing is,
[00:06:27] from October 9 till now, although these
[00:06:31] allegations came in May, but from October 9
[00:06:34] till now, the top
[00:06:37] leadership of the Congress party, that is,
[00:06:41] Rahul Gandhi himself, has remained silent.
[00:06:44] Kharge Sahab said nothing, Priyanka Gandhi Ji
[00:06:47] said nothing, Honorable Sonia Gandhi Ji also said nothing.
[00:06:51] In Sanskrit, it is said, "Manam
[00:06:54] Swikriti Lakshanam,"
[00:06:57] meaning if you are silent, it seems that somewhere
[00:07:00] you are condoning
[00:07:03] the conduct of your alleged sexual predator MP,
[00:07:07] you are endorsing his conduct.
[00:07:10] कंडोन कर रहे हैं,
[00:07:42] was not taken. I want to ask
[00:07:45] the Congress party and especially Rahul Gandhi,
[00:07:48] have the voices of these 11 students
[00:07:52] not reached your ears, Rahul Gandhi ji,
[00:07:56] or have you used the voices of the students
[00:07:59] as a cover for cheap
[00:08:04] I challenged you last time,
[00:08:08] maybe you didn't understand. Vande
[00:08:11] Mataram is a song that worships our motherland,
[00:08:15] our country, as a mother.
[00:08:18] It offers salutations to this country
[00:08:22] in the form of Mother Durga, that is, Shakti.
[00:08:25] The person who refuses
[00:08:28] to see this country as a mother,
[00:08:32] who shies away from worshipping Mother India
[00:08:36] in the form of Durga, in the form of Shakti,
[00:08:39] and refuses to do so,
[00:08:43] who rejects it,
[00:08:46] how will he smash the patriarchy? And that is why, from this platform
[00:08:50] today, Rahul Gandhi ji, I give you
[00:08:53] another challenge. If this "Smash the
[00:08:57] Patriarchy" is not a motivated
[00:09:00] stance, if this "Smash the Patriarchy" is not a
[00:09:04] political rhetoric for you, then take action
[00:09:08] against your own MP Bimol
[00:09:10] Akoyjam. I challenge you,
[00:09:14] Rahul Gandhi ji, if you truly
[00:09:17] want to smash patriarchy, then stand with
[00:09:20] these 11 female students and take action
[00:09:24] against Bimol Akoyjam. Suspend him
[00:09:27] from your party. Friends,
[00:09:31] on one side, there is the successful Prime Minister
[00:09:34] Shri Narendra Modi ji, who brings
[00:09:38] the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam
[00:09:41] to increase the political participation of Mother India's daughters.
[00:09:44] And on the other side, there is Shri Rahul Gandhi ji, who
[00:09:47] obstructs the implementation
[00:09:51] of women's political representation. Not
[00:09:54] only does he obstruct it, but he also shelters
[00:09:58] an alleged sexual predator in the Lok Sabha
[00:10:01] and stands with him in his mind
[00:10:04] and silence. Rahul Gandhi
[00:10:07] ji, this nation calls you out
[00:10:10] for your selective outrage.
[00:10:13] Rahul Gandhi ji, this nation calls you out
[00:10:17] for your motivated stance. Rahul Gandhi
[00:10:19] ji, this nation calls you out for your false
[00:10:23] narrative.
[00:10:55] Gandhi ji and the entire Congress party's false
[00:10:58] narrative very well. On one hand, they talk about
[00:11:02] smashing patriarchy, on the other hand,
[00:11:06] they do not take any action against
[00:11:09] an MP who has such serious allegations
[00:11:12] of sexual misconduct against him and has been dismissed from JNU.
[00:11:16] And regarding the police personnel, i.e., female police personnel,
[00:11:20] that you mentioned, I am 100% correct.
[00:11:23] I am in agreement. The female
[00:11:27] police personnel were just doing their job. But
[00:11:30] we all saw those videos, it was not that their hands
[00:11:34] were accidentally hit during the jostling. Rahul Gandhi
[00:11:37] ji and Priyanka Gandhi ji
[00:11:41] police personnel, assaulted them.
[00:11:45] We all saw that video where Priyanka Gandhi ji
[00:11:48] deliberately elbowed a female police personnel in the chest.
[00:11:52] All this shows that for them,
[00:12:25] in response to the allegations, Congress has remained silent, and silence
[00:12:28] somewhere announces acceptance, and ultimately,
[00:12:31] how long will Congress continue
[00:12:34] this selective narrative or selective outrage? Let's move on and talk
[00:12:38] about the Prime Minister's Chennai visit. He is going to
[00:12:42] inaugurate projects worth 13 thousand crore rupees in Tamil Nadu today.
[00:12:45] The Prime Minister will flag off
[00:12:48] the second phase of the Chennai Metro Rail project, constructed at a cost of approximately
[00:12:52] 4900 crore rupees.
[00:13:25] lay the foundation stone and dedicate them to the nation. These projects include
[00:13:29] the inauguration of the second phase of the Chennai Metro Rail project, Poonamallee
[00:13:32] - Vadapalani stretch, the inauguration
[00:13:36] and foundation stone laying of national highway
[00:13:38] projects worth ₹3700 crore, the inauguration
[00:13:42] and foundation stone laying of projects related to Chennai
[00:13:45] Kamarajar and V.O. Chidambaranar Ports, and the inauguration of five Amrit
[00:13:49] Stations located in Vellore Cantonment, Ambasamudram, Paramakudi, and Namakkal.
[00:13:52] These projects will improve connectivity
[00:13:56] along with travel. This will facilitate freight movement,
[00:13:59] which will boost the country's economic development.
[00:14:05] Two is going to bring a big change in the transport
[00:14:09] system for the people of Chennai. This project worth approximately
[00:14:12] ₹4900 crore is approximately 15 kilometers long,
[00:14:16] which will provide great convenience
[00:14:18] to the people of Chennai
[00:14:22] in transportation. We didn't have a metro, so it was so difficult.
[00:14:26] Sir came We are really happy to know
[00:14:30] that prime minister sir is coming here Chennai
[00:14:32] and just talking about prime minister sir, he has done
[00:14:36] a lot of things for our students and we are really grateful for
[00:14:39] him and we are really excited. In another program,
[00:14:42] Prime Minister Narendra Modi will dedicate the brain
[00:14:46] center at IIT Madras to the nation. He
[00:14:50] will also launch the unique global scientific mission of this center. Prime Minister
[00:14:54] will also release the C-stroke, which will be the first
[00:14:57] human ischemic stroke atlas of its kind. Along with this, Prime Minister
[00:15:01] will participate in the golden jubilee celebrations of Jai
[00:15:04] Gopal Garodia Hindu Vidyalaya Matriculation Higher Secondary School.
[00:15:07] and Tamil
[00:15:11] literature
[00:15:13] to the global level. So for that we are eagerly waiting to
[00:15:17] welcome our Prime Minister. Prime Minister
[00:15:20] will lay the foundation stone for the Group 2 and 3 Lube
[00:15:23] Oil Base Stocks project at the existing Chennai Petroleum
[00:15:27] Corporation Limited (CPCL) refinery. The Prime Minister
[00:15:31] will also visit and worship at the Jalakandeswarar
[00:15:34] Temple in Chennai. The Prime Minister's visit further extends
[00:15:38] his vision of development and heritage.
[00:15:41] The Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Chennai visit,
[00:15:44] encompassing the foundation of values and the heights of development,
[00:15:48] is considered important in many ways. While on one hand,
[00:15:51] the Prime Minister will be seen participating in the program
[00:15:54] celebrating 50 years of Jai Gopal Garodia Hindu
[00:15:58] Vidyalaya in the field of education, on the other hand, he will also
[00:16:02] be seen giving gifts of many

[00:20:41] Ankit Mishra with cameraman Sunil Rana, DD News,
[00:20:44] Chennai. The court has released three
[00:20:48] CJP leaders who were protesting against the demand for the resignation
[00:20:51] of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. These include Abhishay, Deepke,
[00:20:55] Saurabh Das and Ashutosh Raka. The ACM court imposed a condition while releasing
[00:20:59] all three that they would not be involved in any activity
[00:21:03] that disturbs peace and law and order
[00:21:06] for the next one year. Let us tell you that on Saturday, Abhijeet Deepke Saurabh Das
[00:21:10] and Ashutosh Rakha were preventively arrested from Delhi Airport.
[00:21:13] Today, they were produced in court, and after that, all three were released.
[00:21:17] गया.
[00:21:21] The situation in the capital Delhi is normal. Especially talking about
[00:21:25] traffic, everything is normal. However, as a precautionary measure, Delhi Traffic Police
[00:21:29] has issued an advisory today. The police have made special arrangements
[00:21:33] for traffic management in several areas, including New Delhi
[00:21:36] and Central Delhi. Arrangements have been made to implement
[00:21:40] traffic diversions as needed. The traffic police have advised
[00:21:43] people to avoid unnecessary travel and to allow extra
[00:21:47] time for passengers going to railway stations, ISBT or airports.
[00:21:51] The police have appealed to passengers to keep an eye on fresh traffic updates
[00:21:54] and to use alternative routes if needed.
[00:21:58] है
[00:22:01] Meanwhile, in the capital Delhi, metro services have become normal. Passengers
[00:22:05] have breathed a sigh of relief with the opening of metro stations
[00:22:09] and the resumption of services.
[00:22:11] Watch this report by our correspondent Deepak Singh Rawat.
[00:22:14] We are currently at Mandi House metro station, where some
[00:22:18] passengers have just exited the metro. Let's ask them how much trouble
[00:22:21] they faced yesterday and how convenient it is now that the stations have opened.
[00:22:25] Yesterday was a lot of trouble. The auto rickshaws that we used to take
[00:22:28] from Pandav Nagar to come here used to charge 80 to 100 rupees.
[00:22:32] Yesterday, they were asking for 200 to 300 rupees. They dropped us at ITO.
[00:22:36] Then from there, we walked along Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg
[00:22:39] and then circled back to CP. How much time did it take you for a 15-20 minute
[00:22:42] walk? Sir, it took us about an
[00:22:46] hour. A lot of trouble. A lot of trouble.
[00:22:50] Today, all the stations have opened, so it's convenient now. Yes, yes,
[00:22:53] it's definitely convenient. How much trouble did you face? It was very difficult. We were not allowed
[00:22:57] to come, so we went back home. My aunt's daughter
[00:23:01] was sick yesterday, so it was very difficult for the whole family to come. So we booked
[00:23:05] a cab and came. They were asking for more money. We paid 1500. We had a lot
[00:23:09] of trouble yesterday. If there was a metro, we wouldn't have to pay so much. You all were very troubled
[00:23:13] yesterday. Yesterday was very troubling for us. It's fine today. There's no
[00:23:16] problem today. We had problems yesterday. The whole family, and then at night also, we had problems.
[00:23:20] At night, they ask for even more money, because we came from the hospital,
[00:23:23] from Vaishali, so we booked another cab, so more money. So we had a lot
[00:23:27] of trouble yesterday, the whole family. So you saw how because of the metro closure,
[00:23:31] people faced a lot of trouble. People say that if their
[00:23:35] relatives were sick, they couldn't go to meet them. If a student had to go
[00:23:38] somewhere for studies, had to go to a coaching center, they couldn't go there. Someone had
[00:23:42] a 20-minute journey, but it took them hours to reach there. But now the situation
[00:23:46] has normalized. Today all metro stations are open, and people
[00:24:20] all the cancelled trains have been smoothly restarted
[00:24:23] and seeing that, the passengers are constantly
[00:24:27] seeing happiness on their faces, a relief is also being seen. People are very happy
[00:24:31] with this decision of the railways that they will be able to reach
[00:24:35] their destination. Now that it has opened, there is relief. Yesterday, it was being heard that the train
[00:24:38] will not come to Delhi station, it will be stopped there.
[00:24:42] Now it is very good, it is convenient for everyone. But this protest also ended.
[00:24:46] For now, today it seems that there is a train.
[00:24:50] There is a train for Bihar. Today the atmosphere is completely peaceful, there is no
[00:24:54] problem and everything is fine, the train has opened,
[00:24:57] now there is no problem, they are also thanking the railways and also
[00:25:01] they have this in their mind that because of the CJP,
[00:25:05] the way the CJP adopted a flop method of showing protest,
[00:25:08] and because of this, those people were facing
[00:25:12] a lot of difficulties, these passengers, these travelers who want to go
[00:25:16] to their destination, they had to be patient that when will the railway
[00:25:20] announce that from here you can go
[00:25:23] to your destination. From New Delhi railway station they are now taking a sigh
[00:25:27] of relief somewhere and they are also saying that such people
[00:25:31] who are trying to create chaos, the government should deal
[00:25:35] with them strictly and they are also thanking
[00:25:38] the railways that they have opened
[00:25:41] all the cancelled trains of New Delhi railway station.
[00:25:45] With cameraman Rahul Chopra, Chandrashekhar, DD
[00:25:49] News, Delhi.
[00:25:51] And meanwhile, India has rejected
[00:25:55] the comments of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner
[00:25:58] for Human Rights regarding the CJP protest in New Delhi. India called
[00:26:02] these comments an unnecessary interference
[00:26:05] in the country's internal affairs. OHCHR had expressed
[00:26:09] concern over the arrests during the Congress
[00:26:12] Jan Seva Party protest in New Delhi on Saturday and demanded
[00:26:16] the immediate release of the people. India's Permanent Mission
[00:26:20] in Geneva strongly condemned OHCHR's comments in a statement
[00:26:23] on Platform X. This message said that
[00:26:26] India is the world's largest democracy. Our Constitution
[00:26:30] guarantees the right to assemble peacefully
[00:26:34] and it is protected by the country's strong
[00:26:37] institutions, independent judiciary and free
[00:26:40] media. Like every democracy, it also has restrictions
[00:26:44] in the interest of public order. Officials
[00:26:47] act according to the law and our courts
[00:26:52] for the resolution of any complaint.
[00:26:56] India advised the UN body to work with impartiality
[00:26:59] and without discrimination and said that
[00:27:03] OHCHR should also pay equal attention to large-scale protests
[00:27:07] happening elsewhere.
[00:27:12] And from today, the auspicious festival of Sharadi Navratri has begun. During this nine-day festival,
[00:27:16] the nine forms of Mother Durga will be worshipped with proper rituals.
[00:27:20] On the first day of Navratri, Mother Shailputri is worshipped.
[00:27:23] On this occasion, urns have been installed in homes, while
[00:27:27] special worship is being performed in temples. The atmosphere
[00:27:31] in temples and surrounding areas is devotional due to the chants
[00:27:34] of the Mother. On the occasion of Navratri, major temples
[00:27:38] and puja pandals across the country have been decorated. From Mata
[00:27:41] Vaishno Devi Dham in Jammu to Durga Puja in Kolkata and
[00:27:45] Garbha Utsav in Gujarat, the diverse traditions
[00:27:48] and celebrations of Navratri are being witnessed in different
[00:27:52] parts of the country. Devotees are worshipping the Mother with
[00:27:54] full enthusiasm and faith. Prime Minister Narendra Modi
[00:27:58] congratulated the countrymen on Sharadi Navratri.
[00:29:33] My heartfelt congratulations
[00:29:37] and best wishes for Navratri to all my countrymen.
[00:29:41] May your blessings always remain
[00:29:45] with every citizen in our Delhi,
[00:29:48] in our entire country. And I would say
[00:29:51] that those evil people
[00:29:55] who do not understand their self-interest in the interest of the country,
[00:29:58] those sinful people who are troubled by the progress
[00:30:02] of the country, who want to create
[00:30:05] such an atmosphere in the country that causes trouble to the common
[00:30:08] people, who damage public
[00:30:12] property, I say to all such people
[00:30:16] that may Mother give them good sense.
[00:30:20] And today marks the beginning of the holy festival of Sharadi Navratri. On the first day of Navratri,
[00:30:24] the first form of Mother Durga, Mother Shailputri, is being worshipped
[00:30:27] with rituals. A devotional atmosphere prevails
[00:30:31] from temples to homes across the country. Meanwhile, at the famous
[00:30:35] Jhandewalan Temple in the capital Delhi, crowds of devotees have been gathering
[00:30:39] since Brahma Muhurta to have darshan of the Mother. Devotees are bowing
[00:30:42] their heads at the feet of the Mother and praying for happiness, prosperity, and well-being.
[00:30:46] Great enthusiasm is being seen among devotees regarding Navratri.
