00:00:55So let's start with the news from Parliament. Yes, the stalemate
00:00:59continued in Parliament today and the opposition created
00:01:03a ruckus in both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha,
00:01:06due to which the proceedings of both houses were disrupted.
00:01:09Due to the continuous ruckus of opposition members in the Lok Sabha
00:01:13today, the Question Hour could not be held and Speaker Om Birla
00:01:16had to adjourn the House till 2 pm. As soon
00:01:20as the proceedings of the House began, the Lok Sabha Speaker
00:01:24expressed his condolences to the families of those
00:01:27who lost their lives in this devastating attack on the 81st
00:01:31anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
00:01:34and then the House observed a two-minute silence
00:01:38to pay tribute to the innocent people killed in this attack. After this,
00:01:41as soon as the Speaker announced the start of the Question Hour,
00:01:45opposition members came to the well of the House, shouting slogans
00:01:49and started creating a ruckus, demanding a reply from the government
00:01:52on the alleged theft of offerings from the Ram Temple and the police
00:01:56action against students protesting against the NEET paper leak.
00:02:00approval, the bill is brought Due to this continuous ruckus by the opposition, the Question Hour

00:02:17is joining us with more to be calm and return to their seats,
00:02:19The Meteorological Department has issued saying that the Question Hour is a very important time
00:02:21for the House and the people of the country want to hear
00:02:25the questions of their representatives and the government's replies. Despite
00:02:29the appeal of the Lok Sabha Speaker, the opposition members continued
00:02:32their ruckus and after that, within five minutes, he adjourned
00:02:36the House till 2 pm.
00:02:37दी
00:02:45When the government has called the students The House should be for discussion and dialogue
00:02:48but you regularly create
00:02:51an obstruction in a planned manner.
00:02:55You lower the dignity of the House. You bring
00:02:59immoral posters. I request you,
00:03:02this House is for discussion, dialogue, this is not
00:03:06a good tradition and your conduct is also
00:03:09not good, the country is watching this conduct. I again
00:03:13request you, please cooperate in running the House. I will
00:03:17run the House, on every issue, every subject,
00:03:21on every bill, you will get sufficient time,
00:03:24you can express your views in the discussion and dialogue.
00:03:28So if we talk about
00:03:30every news is... gone into. the work, then today in the Lok Sabha, there will be
00:03:33a discussion on the Taxation and Other Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2026.
00:03:36Let's know what is special in this bill. Let us tell you that the Taxation
00:03:40Amendment Bill, 2026 will replace the Income Tax Amendment
00:03:44is a common challenge Ordinance, 2026 and its main objective
00:03:48is to amend the taxation provisions. This will somewhere
00:03:52promote foreign investment and there will be tax
00:03:55incentives for electronics manufacturing and tax
00:04:00reforms for data are also included in this.
00:04:04Electronics manufacturing will somehow get tax incentives. So the Taxation
00:04:08Amendment Bill, 2026 also includes efforts
00:04:11for tax reforms for data
00:04:14for all these updates for our viewers. centers and also
00:04:17people are also seen joining the diamond industry will get a boost from this.
00:04:19Talking about business,
00:04:22Vikas, for sharing all these updates with our viewers. new provisions for business trusts will be included in this
00:04:26and a proposal for an investment-friendly system has been
00:04:30made. There is a proposal for tax exemption for foreign
00:04:34institutional investors in this. They will get the benefit
00:04:37of tax exemption and there is also a proposal
00:04:41to give tax exemption on capital gains. So foreign
00:04:45institutional investors will get tax exemption in this and
00:04:48also there will be a provision to give tax exemption
00:04:51on capital gains. Meanwhile, BIS
00:04:54will also get the benefit of tax exemption.
00:04:58Foreign investment will get
00:05:00a boost somewhere and the government is continuously
00:05:03focusing on long-term foreign investment and
00:05:07therefore long-term foreign
00:05:11same matter which he has investment will also get a boost through this amendment. The government is continuously
00:05:15focusing on foreign investment and it will get a boost
00:05:18through the Taxation Amendment Bill. There will be a simple tax
00:05:22regime for eligible investment funds and also
00:05:25emphasis will be placed on promoting fund management activities.
00:05:28There is also a proposal to increase the surcharge
00:05:32on special purpose vehicles. So a proposal
00:05:35has been made to increase the surcharge on special
00:05:39purpose vehicles. The surcharge on SPVs will increase from 10% to 25%.
00:05:43Along with this, this entire new tax system will be applicable
00:05:47to SPVs adopting this provision.
00:05:50So this provision will be applicable to SPVs adopting the new
00:05:54tax system. The surcharge for other domestic
00:05:57companies will remain 10%. So for other domestic
00:06:01companies, the surcharge will remain 10%. So let
00:06:04us tell you in which laws this entire amendment
00:06:07is going to happen. Amendment is going to happen in the Payment
00:06:11and Settlement Systems Act 2007. Amendment will happen
00:06:14in the Income Tax Act 2025
00:06:17and the Finance Act
00:06:202026 will be amended.
00:06:23Digital payments will be promoted.
00:06:27Along with this, there will be no
00:06:30charges on electronic payment
00:06:34methods and banks will not be able to charge
00:06:37additional fees now. Digital payments will be promoted.
00:06:41We know that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is continuously focusing
00:06:45on making Digital India and that is why efforts are being made
00:06:49to further promote digital payments. Notified e-payment
00:06:52methods will be free of charge. Yes, this is an entire exercise
00:06:56to promote electronic transactions. Online transactions
00:07:00will become easier and common consumers
00:07:03will get relief. So a big effort is being made
00:07:06in the direction of digital payments. Meanwhile, the ruckus
00:07:10by the opposition continued in the Rajya Sabha today, due to which
00:07:13we saw the proceedings of the House being continuously
00:07:16disrupted. The issue of theft of offerings from the Ram Temple
00:07:20in Ayodhya and the police action against protesting students
00:07:24is heating up. Opposition MPs are continuously demanding
00:07:27a statement from Home Minister Amit Shah by creating a ruckus.
00:07:31Due to this ruckus, the Rajya Sabha meeting
00:07:35was adjourned till 2:15 pm after one adjournment.
00:07:38Chairman C.P. Radhakrishnan placed the necessary documents
00:07:42on the table of the House and asked members to raise
00:07:45issues of public importance under Zero Hour.
00:07:49During this, opposition members,
00:07:52including Congress and Samajwadi Party, started creating a ruckus.
00:07:55Amidst the ruckus, some members raised
00:07:58issues of public importance under Zero Hour.
00:08:01The proceedings of the House were continuously
00:08:05disrupted during this time and during this, Parliamentary Affairs Minister
00:08:09Kiren Rijiju said that it is not right
00:08:12to conduct parliamentary business like this every day.
00:08:16He said that the continuous disruption in the session
00:08:19due to the ruckus of opposition members. Amidst the ruckus
00:08:23of the opposition, the Parliamentary Affairs Minister has put forward
00:08:27his views on parliamentary rules
00:08:28and procedures. Let's hear what he said. Rule
00:08:32235.
00:09:42has appealed to maintain order. He has said that
00:09:46the rules of the Rajya Sabha clearly state that no
00:09:50member can be interrupted while speaking
00:09:53and making noise during a member's speech,
00:09:56making unruly remarks, continuously interrupting
00:10:00and disrupting the proceedings of the House
00:10:03in any way is completely
00:10:06against parliamentary rules.
00:10:08He kept repeating the same
00:10:12matter for seven days, that is why the rule
00:10:16was specifically mentioned that a member
00:10:19cannot refer to the
00:10:23already spoken with the permission
00:10:49and will move a proposal to return it to the Lok Sabha.
00:10:52Let's try to understand what this appropriation
00:10:56means, what is this appropriation
00:10:58bill? Let us tell you that it relates
00:11:02to the financial year ending March 31, 2023
00:11:06and it provides for authorizing additional expenditure
00:11:09from the Consolidated Fund. This gives the government
00:11:12legal permission to spend money from the Consolidated
00:11:16Fund. The government cannot spend any money from the fund
00:11:20without Parliament's approval. It is very important
00:11:23to get Parliament's approval for additional government expenditure.
00:11:27And the bill has been passed by the Lok Sabha. Now the bill
00:11:31has been passed by voice vote in the Lok Sabha. Now let
00:11:34us tell you that this appropriation bill is very
00:11:38important. The total amount in the bill presented
00:11:41is ₹54,067 crore and the central
00:11:44government's demands for grants are included in it. The entire
00:11:48amount is under the charged head and the entire
00:11:51amount works under the charged head and how does
00:11:54this provision work, we will also tell you this. Every year
00:11:58in the budget, funds are allocated for ministries
00:12:01and schemes. If the expenditure exceeds
00:12:05the sanctioned amount, additional expenditure is recorded. The CAG
00:12:08audits this additional expenditure and the Public
00:12:11Accounts Committee reviews the expenditure. Then,
00:12:15on the recommendation of the PAC, the government demands additional
00:12:19grants and Parliament approves the additional
00:12:22grants. After Parliament's
00:12:25and upon the passing of the bill, the additional
00:12:29expenditure gets legal
00:12:32validity.
00:12:35So after the approval of Parliament,
00:12:38is introduced. Rajesh Raj
00:12:42information on the proceedings of Parliament. Rajesh, if we look
00:12:45continuously, the opposition seems to be creating obstruction.
00:12:49Although the government has completed many tasks during this period,
00:12:53the opposition's attempt seems to be only to create obstruction.
00:12:56है
00:12:59Uh, look, certainly, the way the weather
00:13:03was changing today, it was expected
00:13:06that the opposition's mood would also change
00:13:10and everything would be fine in the House.
00:13:13But that didn't happen. The weather changed, but the opposition's
00:13:17mood did not change and despite the heavy
00:13:20torrential rain, the opposition staged a protest at the Makardwara
00:13:24of Parliament and they also
00:13:27went inside the House and created a ruckus,
00:13:31due to which you saw that the proceedings of both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha
00:13:35were disrupted.
00:13:40Information has been received and after that, today,
00:13:44on that subject, no one
00:13:46needs to make any wrong comment
00:13:50on this. Jharkhand Protest
00:13:54is going on. Whether it is in Jharkhand,
00:13:57Telangana, in various
00:14:00states, the way exam papers
00:14:03were leaked, this
00:14:09for the country. We need to rectify
00:14:13the systems across the country and I would request that these
00:14:16states also take this matter
00:14:20with the same seriousness as the central government
00:14:24has taken it.
00:14:25लिया
00:14:28So Rajesh Raj is continuously with us with more information.
00:14:32Rajesh, as you heard Piyush Goyal, he is saying that whether it is
00:14:36Jharkhand or other states, the way the central government
00:14:39is seriously working on all these paper leak issues,
00:14:43the state governments should also think in the same way.
00:14:46चाहिए,
00:14:50Look, the ruling party members are raising this question strongly.
00:14:54Sanjay Seth, the BJP MP from Ranchi and Minister of State
00:14:57for Defence in the central government, raised this issue vociferously
00:15:01yesterday and came out of the House to speak to the media
00:15:05and in this matter, he clearly demanded
00:15:08a CBI inquiry into the irregularities that occurred in the Jharkhand
00:15:12Public Service Commission and told Rahul Gandhi
00:15:16to come to Jharkhand and stage a protest
00:15:19there. So, certainly, the ruling party members are aggressive
00:15:23towards the opposition, saying that if in the center,
00:15:27Delhi, or other parts of the country, where incidents
00:15:30related to paper leaks occur, the opposition
00:15:34works to raise them, then why is the opposition
00:15:38not protesting over the irregularities
00:15:42that occurred in Jharkhand? And perhaps this is why
00:15:45Sanjay Seth, the Minister of State for Defence,
00:15:49clearly appealed to Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition
00:15:53in the Lok Sabha, to come there and stage a protest
00:15:56in Ranchi because we saw how protests were organized
00:16:00at Jantar Mantar on the issue of students and
00:16:03after that protest, the then Education Minister
00:16:06Dharmendra Pradhan resigned. Their demands were accepted,
00:16:10so then why are the leaders of the BJP, whether
00:16:14it is Babulal Marandi, Arjun Munda, or
00:16:17the ministers from Jharkhand in the central government,
00:16:21attacking the opposition by raising this issue
00:16:25of irregularities in JPSC and demanding a CBI
00:16:28inquiry into it? And you saw how Kiren Rijiju
00:16:32clearly said in the Rajya Sabha that the parliamentary ruckus
00:16:35that is being created,
00:16:49is continuously trying to disrupt the work,
00:16:52but the same issues of students are there in Jharkhand
00:16:56and other states, but they are not making any effort
00:17:00to show their concern there. So this double standard,
00:17:04double character is coming to light.
00:17:07As I told you earlier, Sheila, the MPs of the Bharatiya
00:17:10Janata Party from Jharkhand are continuously
00:17:14trying to raise this issue aggressively,
00:17:18saying that if protests can happen against the central
00:17:22government, then why are the opposition members
00:17:25not showing aggression against the state governments
00:17:29against whom allegations are being made? And the question
00:17:33is absolutely valid and as I told you earlier,
00:17:36the weather in Delhi certainly changed, but the opposition's
00:17:39mood did not change and despite the heavy torrential rain,
00:17:43they staged a protest, both outside the House
00:17:47and inside the House, due to which the proceedings
00:17:51of the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha had to be adjourned.
00:17:55Now it remains to be seen what attitude the opposition
00:17:58adopts when the House resumes its proceedings
00:18:01in the afternoon. Meanwhile, it is expected
00:18:05that amidst the ruckus,
00:18:07the ruling party members will try to pass the bill
00:18:11and certainly, it is somewhere the helplessness of the ruling
00:18:15party that the opposition is not cooperating
00:18:19and in such a situation, passing the bill
00:18:22seems to be a clear compulsion for them. In such
00:18:25a situation, we would also like to know which are
00:18:29the bills that are
00:18:29to be tabled today
00:18:34and which the government would like to be
00:19:07tried to do and tried to attract the attention of the
00:19:11people of the country from the ruling party.
00:19:14But today, if we look, then today the Appropriation
00:19:18Bill, which you have mentioned in detail in your anchor,
00:19:21that Nirmala Sitharaman will bring this bill and try to pass
00:19:25it. And apart from this, many other small bills
00:19:29will be tried to be passed. The bill related to judges
00:19:32was a very important bill. It was already passed amidst
00:19:35the ruckus in the Lok Sabha, but yesterday, it could be discussed
00:19:39in the Rajya Sabha because the Congress and opposition
00:19:43members had walked out of the House. And because of
00:19:46this, it could be discussed. If they walk out of the House
00:19:50today also, then after the discussion, the ruling party will try to pass
00:19:53it. If they remain present in the House and try to create
00:19:57a ruckus, then it will certainly be a compulsion for the ruling
00:20:01party to pass the bill amidst the ruckus. Although the ruling
00:20:04party's effort is that all bills should be passed in the House
00:20:07with consensus, by voice vote, and there should be a discussion
00:20:11on it so that the people of the country know what
00:20:15are the merits and demerits of each bill and the opposition
00:20:19also gets a first opportunity that when you
00:20:22participate in the discussion in the House, you have an
00:20:26opportunity to corner the ruling party, to discuss the merits
00:20:29and demerits of the bill, and to discuss the amendment,
00:20:33as well as to express your views on it, because
00:20:37the public is watching, from where you have been elected,
00:20:40they are watching, they know what your views are
00:20:44on it and what you want to say on it,
00:20:48but the opposition seems to be absent in terms
00:20:51of discussion, but the ruling party's effort is that
00:20:55they are continuously talking about coming, talking, discussing
00:20:59it, but the opposition seems to be shying away from discussion.
00:21:03In such a situation, if we look at the productivity, then
00:21:06how much work has been done
00:21:07in this monsoon session so far?
00:21:14Look, amidst the ruckus, Sheela, we saw that
00:21:17efforts were made to pass many bills.
00:21:50This is the last day before attainment
00:21:53and Friday is dedicated to Private Member Bills,
00:21:57in which private bills are introduced. So it remains to be seen
00:22:01what work will be done today. Tomorrow, on Friday,
00:22:04Private Member Bills are brought after the second half
00:22:08and the first part is dedicated to Question
00:22:11Hour and Zero Hour. So today is a very important
00:22:15day and certainly, if we look at all three
00:22:18weeks, they have been consumed by ruckus.
00:22:22But amidst this ruckus, the government has certainly
00:22:26managed to pass many bills, in which it has been successful.
00:22:29The Anti-Paper Leak Bill is a very important bill,
00:22:33which the ruling party passed very strongly
00:22:37from the House and in it, the opposition,
00:22:40even amidst the ruckus, participated in the discussion.
00:22:44So it will be interesting to see that tomorrow
00:22:48will be the last day of the third week and now
00:22:51only a few days will remain in the next week,
00:22:55Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, on August 13,
00:22:59the session is expected to end. Rajesh, one more small
00:23:03question, which are the bills that the government
00:23:06would like to pass in this monsoon session itself?
00:23:09जाए,
00:23:14Look, the government's top priority was the Anti-Paper
00:23:17Leak Bill, the bill related to the Supreme Court,
00:23:21many amendments
00:23:23related to the bank were there, and the Birth
00:23:27and Death Registration Bill, the government tried
00:23:31to pass it and it was also passed
00:23:34by the House. Now the ruling party wants to pass
00:23:38the remaining small bills at all costs and
00:23:42a continuous gossip is doing the rounds
00:23:45in the corridors of Parliament that the ruling party
00:23:48wants to bring back the delimitation bill,
00:23:51and talks of extending the session's duration
00:23:54are also coming to the fore,
00:23:58but no confirmed information has been received on this yet,
00:24:01but the ruling party's intention is certainly to bring
00:24:05that bill after consultation with the opposition,
00:24:08for which if the session's duration has to be extended,
00:24:12it can be extended, but no official announcement
00:24:16has been made about this yet, nor has any information
00:24:19been received, it's just a market of discussions that is clearly visible
00:24:23and the ruling party's effort is to fully
00:24:26utilize the remaining days and by convincing
00:24:30the opposition, try to clear the pending
00:24:34legislative work. Well, let's hope that
00:24:37the legislative work goes smoothly
00:24:41and this monsoon session becomes more
00:24:44productive. For now, thank you very much
00:24:48for sharing all these updates with our viewers.
00:26:32Welcome back after the break, you are watching Midday Prime and in Midday Prime,
00:26:36let's turn to another piece of news. Yes, let us tell you
00:26:40that a terrible road accident has occurred
00:26:43near Punch police station area on the Jhansi-Kanpur
00:26:46National Highway in Uttar Pradesh and in this road accident,
00:26:50the youngest son of mafia Ateeq Ahmed,
00:26:53Aban Ahmed, has died. Yes, he died in the accident.
00:26:57Another companion of his also lost his life in the accident,
00:27:00while three other youths, Umar Mohammad Zaid and
00:27:04Aslam, have been injured. Aban was going to meet
00:27:08his brother Ali Ahmed, who is imprisoned in Jhansi jail,
00:27:11along with his companions and during this, his car
00:27:15met with an accident near Punch area. As soon as the
00:27:19information of the accident was received, the local police and ambulance
00:27:22reached the spot and all the injured were immediately sent to Community
00:27:25Health Center Moth. The police have sent both the bodies
00:27:29for post-mortem and the entire matter is being investigated. So
00:27:33the news of the death of Aban and two others in this road
00:27:36accident near Punch is coming to light. Vikas,
00:27:40our correspondent from Jhansi, is joining us
00:27:43with more updates. Vikas, how did this accident
00:27:47happen and what is the current situation? Yes, yes,
00:27:50I will tell you, this is Punch police station
00:27:54area, about 65 kilometers from Jhansi,
00:27:58where on the highway, it is being said that what the
00:28:01villagers told was that the speed of the car
00:28:05was very high and in between, an animal
00:28:08came on the road and in an attempt to save
00:28:11it or overtake it, the car hit the divider
00:28:14and the accident was so severe, the collision
00:28:18was so strong that many people nearby heard its sound
00:28:22and in between, it was told that two people died
00:28:25on the spot, one of whom is Aban and the other is Sonu,
00:28:29his companion, who were coming to meet his brother imprisoned
00:28:33in Jhansi, these two people and in the same image,
00:28:37it was told that three other people, a total of five
00:28:41people were in the car, out of which three are injured.
00:28:44Okay, so what is the condition of the injured right now? Where are they
00:28:48injured and what is their condition? Are they able to talk and tell about the accident?
00:28:51Yes, yes, right now, they have been brought
00:28:55to the emergency of Jhansi Medical College. They have just
00:28:59been admitted to the emergency by ambulance. But
00:29:02we have tried to talk to them,
00:29:05but they have not given any answer yet and
00:29:09they are saying that they are all injured, so they don't know
00:29:12that two people, Aban and Sonu, have died.
00:29:15And their bodies are being sent to Jhansi for post-mortem.
00:29:18So was Aban sitting in the front?
00:29:21What was the intensity of the accident
00:29:25that he died on the spot? Yes,
00:29:29because it's a highway and it's also the rainy
00:29:33season, there was light rain and it was said
00:29:36that the speed of the car must have been above 100,
00:29:40as the villagers have told, so suddenly, due to an animal
00:29:44coming on the road, the car hit the big
00:29:47dividers on the road and certainly,
00:29:50Aban might have been sitting in the front
00:29:54because no one has been able to confirm
00:29:57where these people were sitting and because
00:30:01it was a horrific accident and the collision
00:30:04was so strong that due to head injury
00:30:08and this, he died instantly.
00:30:12So he was going to meet his brother imprisoned in jail and
00:30:16during this, this entire road accident happened. The news of the death of Atiq Ahmed's younger son, Aban Ahmed,
00:30:19has come to light. Thank you very much,
00:30:25Now, moving on in prime time, let's talk about how long students
00:30:28will have to wait for justice. Yes, we are talking about Jharkhand. In Jharkhand,
00:30:32the student movement against irregularities in competitive exams
00:30:36is continuously ongoing, and it has been going on for many days.
00:30:39AISA announced a protest march to the assembly yesterday,
00:30:43and the protesting students
00:30:45will be seen gheraoing the assembly on August 10
00:30:48with their demands. Amidst this, seeing the increasing
00:30:52protest by the students, the state government
00:30:55now appears to be softening its stance. A committee has also been formed
00:30:59for talks with the students, and this committee includes
00:31:03Ministers Sudivya Kumar, Deepika Pandey Singh,
00:31:06Sanjay Prasad Yadav, and Chamra Linda.
00:31:09The state government has invited students for talks,
00:31:13and meanwhile, the CID investigation from the Soren government has also intensified.
00:31:17The scope of the investigation into irregularities in competitive exams seems to be continuously expanding,
00:31:20and so far, 18 accused have been arrested
00:31:24in this matter. So, under pressure from the students, the Soren government
00:31:27is finally seen softening its stance.
00:31:29सरकार
00:31:32So, in Jharkhand, students are demanding justice,
00:31:35but the CM seems to be maintaining silence. This entire movement
00:31:39is continuously going on at Jaipal Singh Munda Stadium. A large number
00:31:43of students are present there and protesting. Many candidates
00:31:47are also on hunger strike there.
00:31:50Along with that, let us tell you that this entire movement
00:31:53is against irregularities in JPSC. The way
00:31:57the protesting students
00:32:00against the irregularities are quite vocal.
00:32:03They are quite vocal about their demands, and
00:32:07these students are insistent on the demand for a CBI inquiry.
00:32:11Yes, they don't trust the CID inquiry as much. They are demanding a CBI inquiry.
00:32:15They also demand the cancellation of the 14th JPSC exam. So, these students
00:32:19have many major demands. They are also demanding an investigation
00:32:22into the OMR merit process so that the truth
00:32:26can come out. They are demanding complete transparency in recruitment processes,
00:32:30and it is also necessary that complete transparency be maintained
00:32:33in recruitment processes. The students have put forward several
00:32:37conditions before the government, and these conditions
00:32:41are that the recruitment process should be transparent. They have also demanded
00:32:44that the CM come to the protest site. They have talked about
00:32:48having a direct conversation with CM Hemant Soren, that they want to talk directly
00:32:52to the Chief Minister. They have talked about
00:32:54having this entire discussion in the presence of the media. They have talked about not having
00:32:58a discussion in a closed room, and they have demanded to have all discussions
00:33:02in the presence of the media so that the truth can come out
00:33:05and all assurances can be made public. The students have clearly refused
00:33:09to have a discussion in a closed room, saying that the discussion will not happen in a closed room,
00:33:13but rather in public. Amidst talks with the government,
00:33:16there is also talk of forming a reform platform for discussions.
00:33:2010 students from the reform platform will talk
00:33:23with representatives
00:33:27Along with that, let us tell you that this student movement is continuing
00:33:31on the 13th day, and this student movement
00:33:34is continuously gaining momentum. So, the monsoon session
00:33:38of Jharkhand is starting, and CM Soren's
00:33:41tension seems to be increasing in it. In the all-party meeting, the issue
00:33:45of the student movement seemed to heat up. The protesting students
00:33:49are quite vocal about their demands.
00:33:52There is also continuous talk of gheraoing the assembly on August 10,
00:33:55that this entire gherao of the assembly will happen on August 10.
00:33:59And due to all this, the Hemant Soren government
00:34:03is now seen to be in tension. You are seeing all these
00:34:06visuals on your TV screen. How students are protesting
00:34:10on the 13th day and are standing firm
00:34:13in the field that this time, the recruitment process
00:34:17will surely be made transparent. These students are firm on an indefinite
00:34:21Satyagraha, and are saying to Hemant Soren
00:34:25that this was not expected from you. So, this entire movement is happening
00:34:28over exam fraud, and a large number of students
00:34:32are present who are talking
00:34:36about transparency, who are talking about preventing
00:34:39fraud in exams, who are talking about
00:34:43bringing the truth to light. So, "Enemies of jobs, resign!"
00:34:47Such placards are being held in their hands. Diwakar Kumar
00:34:51from Ranchi is joining us with more information. Diwakar ji, we are continuously
00:34:54seeing that the student movement is only
00:34:58increasing, and there is also talk of gheraoing the assembly
00:35:02on the 10th. What are the demands of the students,
00:35:06and how much is the government now giving in?
00:35:09रही
00:35:13Look, this student movement
00:35:15is continuously becoming aggressive, and now, look, this crowd
00:35:19is telling a story of how the students'
00:35:22movement is now getting support from the common public as well.
00:35:26People from social organizations are also coming, and other salaried
00:35:32these students. And look how this crowd
00:35:35in the afternoon, because it's lunchtime right now,
00:35:39many voluntary organizations have arranged food for the students
00:35:43here, and all those arrangements have been made so that the students'
00:35:47movement can continue in this manner until the government
00:35:50takes cognizance of their demands and their demands are met.
00:35:54So, this effort is continuously ongoing, and look how the students
00:35:58are still firm on the main demand, and
00:36:01their movement is going on peacefully
00:36:05in this manner, in which they are still firm
00:36:09on the path of Satyagraha, and they are continuously
00:36:13demanding that there should be a CBI inquiry,
00:36:15and the government in this matter cannot now just try to whitewash
00:36:19things. Regarding the demand for a CID inquiry and the demand for a CBI inquiry,
00:36:23the candidates are definitely firm on this point that
00:36:27the CID inquiry is just an attempt
00:36:30to whitewash things. So, definitely, this student movement
00:36:34in Jharkhand is slowly moving forward,
00:36:37and this movement is continuously intensifying.
00:36:40The scope of the investigation
00:36:44into the exam fraud also appears to be continuously expanding,
00:36:47and some arrests have also been made. How many arrests have been made so far,
00:36:51and what further possibilities
00:36:53are there?
00:36:57Look, definitely, so far, a total of 18 arrests have been made
00:37:00in this case. Late last evening,
00:37:03five people were arrested from Lucknow, so this
00:37:07number is also increasing, and the government is trying to assure that
00:37:10we are working, but the students are not ready to accept
00:37:14this, and they are continuously firm on the demand for a CBI inquiry. And today, when
00:37:18the assembly session was going on, you also saw how all the MLAs of the Bharatiya
00:37:22Janata Party staged a protest
00:37:26inside the assembly premises and demanded
00:37:29a CBI inquiry in this entire matter from the government. And they have said
00:37:33that they stand with the students' movement, and when I was talking to the student leaders
00:37:37today, they also clearly said that they are firm on the demand for a CBI inquiry, and
00:37:40there should be complete reform in JPSC and JSSC,
00:37:44and also on August 10,
00:37:47they are also firm on their program of gheraoing
00:37:51and protesting the assembly. And in the meantime,
00:37:54Diwakar ji, once again, the same question, as we are
00:37:58seeing
00:38:00that in the national-level movements,
00:38:04the opposition comes forward in a certain way. In the state where their supporting government
00:38:07is in power, that kind of role is not played. Are students
00:38:11not students there? Do their demands change there?
00:38:13है,
00:38:17Look, definitely, the student movement is continuously growing, and now this
00:38:21movement is also demanding the resignation of Chief Minister Hemant Soren,
00:38:25and the students have continuously
00:38:27entered a state of uproar peacefully. But the biggest Satyagraha
00:38:31they have resorted to, in that, the pamphlets clearly
00:38:35show how they have resorted to pamphlets and are satirizing
00:38:38the government, satirizing Hemant Soren. People are mimicking him,
00:38:42so that this movement is also seen in a new form,
00:38:46and through this movement, the students are continuously
00:38:50becoming vocal, and are trying to make the government
00:38:54aware that the government should take cognizance in this matter
00:38:57and immediately take action and cancel the results of the PT exam
00:39:01that were recently released, and the government should take cognizance
00:39:05of all the exams that have happened in the last five or six years and get that matter inquired by the CBI.
00:39:09कराए,
00:39:13for talks, why aren't the students
00:39:16going for talks? Why do they want
00:39:19the government to come to them and talk there? Do they have some doubt
00:39:23about transparency?
00:39:28Look, definitely, since eight students are now sitting on an indefinite hunger strike
00:39:32here, and the student movement is intensifying, the government has also started
00:39:36taking initiatives from yesterday. Yesterday, from the government's side,
00:39:39the SDO and ADM were sent here saying that the Chief Minister wants to talk,
00:39:43but the students immediately refused, saying that the talks will only happen if the Chief Minister comes here
00:39:47and talks. The talks will happen on a media platform, and there will be no talks
00:39:51in a closed room. After that, a four-member committee has been formed
00:39:54by the government, in which four ministers have been included. Two are from the Jharkhand Mukti
00:39:58Morcha quota, one from Congress, and one from the RJD quota.
00:40:02But the minister who has been given the responsibility is only to monitor
00:40:05this ongoing movement. The students have asked
00:40:08for five names who will talk to the Chief Minister at the representative level,
00:40:12but no clear picture has emerged on that yet. Those five names have not been given by the students
00:40:16because the students are so firm on their demand
00:40:20that the Chief Minister should talk outside, should talk in front of the media.
00:40:24So perhaps, a consensus has not been reached on this issue yet, and those five names have not yet been given by the students.
00:40:28But there is a possibility being expressed. I was just talking to the students,
00:40:31and they said that today, a little later, by evening,
00:40:35these names will be released who will talk to the Chief Minister.
00:40:38Alright, thank you very much, Diwakar ji,
00:40:41Moving on, let's talk about the controversy
00:40:45regarding appointments in government jobs in Kerala, which is once again seen to be intensifying.
00:40:49The Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha is protesting today outside the State Secretariat
00:40:53in Thiruvananthapuram. The protesters started moving towards the Secretariat.
00:40:56The police used water cannons to stop them there
00:41:00and also used lathi charge.
00:41:01है?
00:41:07So, this entire controversy in Kerala is regarding appointments in government jobs. The Yuva Morcha's
00:41:11protest is being seen here. Many rank holders have still not received appointment letters.
00:41:14The Yuva Morcha alleges that there are irregularities in the Kerala Public Service Commission's
00:41:18appointment process, and despite being named in the rank list,
00:41:22a large number of candidates have not yet received appointment letters.
00:41:26And regarding this issue, hundreds of teachers
00:41:29and PSC rank holders from various districts are also continuously protesting
00:41:32and continuously demanding that pending appointments be completed soon.
00:41:36Let us tell you that in recent days, continuous dissatisfaction
00:41:40regarding pending appointments has also been seen among social media and candidates.
00:41:43The Yuva Morcha has alleged that both the CPI(M) and Congress
00:41:47are now seen to be adopting a dual approach on the issue of PSC rank holders
00:41:51and are not openly coming out in support of the affected candidates.
00:41:55The organization says that the government should
00:41:58complete all pending appointments soon
00:42:01and ensure transparency in the recruitment process.
00:42:05On the other hand, the Kerala
00:42:09for interviews and other recruitment processes for the month of August,
00:42:12but the protesting candidates say
00:42:16that despite being included in the rank list, they are not getting appointments.
00:42:20So, this entire protest outside the State Secretariat where protesters have been lathi-charged
00:42:23and water cannons have also been used, this entire protest is of the Yuva Morcha.
00:42:27Moving on, let's turn to the next news. Yes, the next news in Media Prime
00:42:31is related to the NEET UG paper leak case. The hearing on various petitions
00:42:35in the Supreme Court has now been adjourned until August 19.
00:42:38And today, during the hearing of the case, the lawyer appearing on behalf of the petitioners
00:42:41informed the court that an affidavit has been filed
00:42:45in this matter as per the previous instructions of the central government.
00:42:49And on this, the Supreme Court instructed the petitioners
00:42:53to study the affidavit filed by the government and file their reply on it.
00:42:56The court said that after the replies from all parties
00:43:00are received, the next hearing of the case will be held on August 19.
00:43:04This case is related to the alleged
00:43:08paper leak and irregularities in the exam process of the NEET UG exam.
00:43:11The petitions have raised various issues related to the fairness,
00:43:15transparency, and interests of the candidates of the examination.
00:43:18The Supreme Court has already sought replies from the central government,
00:43:22concerned agencies, and other parties in this matter, and after
00:43:26receiving affidavits and replies from all parties, the court will now hold
00:43:30the next hearing of this entire matter on August 19. So,
00:43:33the hearing on these petitions related to NEET
00:43:35will be held.
00:43:38Now let's talk about the weather. Yes, heavy rainfall

00:47:32from Thiruvananthapuram. Let's get more updates on this weather.
00:47:35Deepak, first of all, I would like to come to you.
00:47:39We are seeing continuous rain since morning,
00:47:43and the weather in Delhi has definitely become a little pleasant,
00:47:46although the humidity is still causing distress.
00:47:49रही
00:47:52Yes, absolutely. If we talk about Delhi NCR, it has been continuously raining
00:47:56in Delhi NCR since yesterday. It has been raining intermittently, and today, since morning,
00:47:59heavy rain has also been witnessed. And talking about Delhi,

00:48:18for states like Uttarakhand, the Meteorological Department has issued a heavy alert. It has clearly
00:48:22said that at this time, there is a great need to exercise caution, and after
00:48:25that, Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami also held a meeting

00:48:33to be informed that landslides occur a lot during this time.
00:48:36Uttarakhand is a hilly area. People need to be careful
00:48:40to avoid them. They should drive carefully on the roads. All this
00:48:43has been said. Besides this, in the coastal
00:48:46states also, the Meteorological Department has issued an alert
00:48:50in a way. Strong winds can blow there. In coastal areas, winds can blow
00:48:53at a speed of 40 to 60 kilometers per hour. In such a situation, the sailors
00:48:57who go out into the sea have also been asked to be alert.
00:49:01If very strong winds blow, then they should not go out into the sea. So,
00:49:05along with rain, as I mentioned, there is an alert for strong winds
00:49:09in the coastal areas, and for hilly areas, whether it is Uttarakhand or
00:49:12Himachal, in these places, the most alert for rain has been issued by the Meteorological Department.
00:49:16Absolutely, an alert has also been issued for hilly states. Subina is joining us from Dibrugarh.
00:49:20Let's get more updates. Subina,
00:49:23what is the weather like, and what is the possibility
00:49:27of it remaining so?
00:49:29Yes, Sheila, currently the weather is quite sunny,
00:49:33but the IMD has predicted a yellow alert.
00:49:36There is a possibility of rain till approximately the 10th
00:49:40and 11th, because the pattern in Assam
00:49:44is that there is
00:49:47intense summer, it's sunny, then after that, rain comes.
00:49:51So this process continues throughout
00:49:55the monsoon. And if we talk about relief and rescue
00:49:58operations, just yesterday, Union Health Minister JP
00:50:02Nadda had come. He conducted an aerial survey
00:50:06of Sivasagar, Jorhat, and all these areas
00:50:09that are most flood-affected. Chief Minister Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma
00:50:13was also with him. Then they went to Nepali
00:50:17Kuti, which is the worst-hit village this time, located in Sivasagar
00:50:20district. There, he met people from seven communities,
00:50:24talked to them about their problems and challenges
00:50:28they are facing. Then at night, at the CM's
00:50:31Secretariat in Dibrugarh, he held a meeting with all District Commissioners,
00:50:35Cabinet Ministers, and the CM.
00:50:38And then he said that he
00:50:42would request the Finance Minister to bring relaxation
00:50:45in the NDRF norms so that
00:50:49maximum benefits from its funds
00:50:53can be given to flood-affected families.
00:50:57And today itself, the CM will provide financial assistance
00:51:00for education to undergraduate
00:51:03and postgraduate students, and also
00:51:06to diploma students, to buy books
00:51:10that have been completely destroyed in these floods.
00:51:13So, everyone will be given money for books.
00:51:17Along with that, all the flood-affected schools in these
00:51:21areas, especially Sivasagar, will be given
00:51:25around two lakh in flood assistance
00:51:29so that they can rebuild their schools again.
00:51:32And then he has also been continuously tweeting
00:51:36that there has been a lot of siltation
00:51:39due to continuous heavy rain.
00:51:43So, how can this siltation be cleaned
00:51:46as soon as possible so that
00:51:49people can return to their normal lives, Sheila? So, that
00:51:53is also being managed, and absolutely, from the government's side,
00:51:57these relief and rescue operations are being carried out continuously
00:52:00so that normalcy can be brought back as soon as possible and the general
00:52:04public does not have to suffer much damage.
00:52:08Vivek from Thiruvananthapuram is
00:52:11joining us. Let's get an update from there too. Vivek,
00:52:15if we talk about the latest update right now, what is
00:52:18the situation?
00:52:19अभी
00:52:24The weather is sunny today, but in many areas,
00:52:27the water level has not yet come down.
00:52:31Remember, 26 people have died in the floods in Kerala
00:52:35until the first week of August. And today and
00:52:38tomorrow, an orange alert has been issued
00:52:42for eight districts in Kerala, which are the central districts of Kerala, Pathanamthitta,
00:52:45Alappuzha, Kottayam, Idukki. And for the
00:52:48rest five districts, a yellow alert has been issued.
00:52:52So, currently, the weather situation in Kerala is somewhat normal.
00:52:56VD Satheesan, Chief Minister of Kerala,
00:53:00has visited the relief camps
00:53:03and
00:53:35talked to the ASP. He said that Kerala does not have any problems
00:53:39now. The water level has reduced.
00:53:43And the IMD has clearly predicted
00:53:46that in the next one week, the rain situation
00:53:49will improve. So, today and tomorrow,
00:53:53an orange alert has also been issued for eight districts. Thank you very much, Vivek, Subina, and
00:53:56Deepak, for joining us and sharing all these
00:54:00updates from across the country with our viewers.
