No opposition tolerated by Modi`s Chamchas<br />
Swaraj India President Yognedra Yadav reminded Mr Modi about his pre-election promises made to<br />
the farmers of India who gathered from all over the country at the Kisan Mukti Sansad in Delhi<br />
Bihar BJP President threatening<br />
to chop off fingers of anyone<br />
who points fingers at Prime<br />
Minister Narendra Modi. It certainly<br />
indicates that no individual<br />
or political party dares to<br />
challenge the current policies of<br />
the Modi government in the fear<br />
that one might face the wrath<br />
and indignation of the Modi<br />
Bhagats. Swaraj India President<br />
Yognedra Yadav reminded Mr<br />
Modi about his pre-election<br />
promises made to the farmers of<br />
India who gathered from all over<br />
the country at the Kisan Mukti<br />
Sansad in Delhi<br />
"I am pointing my finger at<br />
Mr. Modi, the whole Kisan Mukti<br />
Sansad is pointing fingers at<br />
Modi because he cheated and<br />
looted the farmers of this country,<br />
let us see how many fingers they<br />
can chop and how many hands<br />
they can cut off," Yogendra<br />
Yadav said while addressing the<br />
farmers. Responding to his<br />
appeal, thousands of farmers<br />
raised their fingers in unison as a<br />
symbolic protest against the government<br />
policies. Yogendra<br />
Yadav also said that Mr. Modi<br />
does not have time to visit the<br />
farmers who are at a distance of 5<br />
minutes from his residence and<br />
office.<br />
On the future course of action<br />
of All India Kisan Sangarsh<br />
Coordination Committee<br />
(AIKSCC), Yogendra Yadav said<br />
that Kisan Mukti Abhiyan will<br />
Rahul to ask Modi a question<br />
every day in Gujarat poll run-up<br />
begin a campaign to ensure that<br />
no crop is being sold below the<br />
set MSP. He also said that the<br />
country wide campaign will<br />
begin on 26th of November - the<br />
day when the constitution of this<br />
country was finalised and end on<br />
26th of January - the day when<br />
the constitution was approved.<br />
The campaign will begin from<br />
Bardoli in Gujarat. "Mr. Modi is<br />
a busy man. He does not have<br />
time to meet us here. May be he<br />
is busy in Gujarat, so we will go<br />
there and begin our campaign<br />
from there, and if he has any concern<br />
left for the farmers of this<br />
country, he should come and<br />
meet them there."<br />

New Delhi, Congress Vice<br />
President Rahul Gandhi will ask<br />
Prime Minister Narendra Modi a<br />
question every day in the run-up<br />
to the Gujarat assembly elections,<br />
the party said. Congress<br />
chief spokesperson Randeep<br />
Singh Surjewala on Wednesday<br />
said Gandhi would ask a question<br />
to the Prime Minister every<br />
day.<br />
“Rahul Gandhi is asking a<br />
question every day, why did mis-governance of<br />
22 years create such a situation,” he tweeted.<br />
Gandhi wrote on Twitter on Wednesday “22<br />
salon ka hisaab, Gujarat mange jawaab.<br />
(Gujarat demands answers for 22 years of<br />
BJP)”. He said he would demand answers for 22<br />
years of Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) rule in<br />
the state and the promises made to the people.<br />
New Delhi, BSF<br />
Director General K.K.<br />
Sharma on Wednesday said<br />
Pakistan has not stopped its<br />
infiltration bids into Jammu<br />
and Kashmir, and added<br />
that routes used by militants<br />
have been identified<br />
and the BSF is ready to<br />
tackle future attempts.<br />
He also said the neighbouring<br />
country was making<br />
repeated ceasefire violations<br />
despite both issues being<br />
raised repeatedly at the DG<br />
level talks with Pakistan<br />
Rangers. “Pakistan is continuing<br />
with its attempts at infiltration.<br />
We will not let their<br />
intentions succeed. We know<br />
“First question to the Prime<br />
Minister on the state of affairs in<br />
Gujarat — In 2012, promises<br />
were made to provide 50 lakh<br />
new houses but built 4.72 lakh in<br />
five years.<br />
Will the Prime Minister tell,<br />
whether it will take another 45<br />
years to fulfil the promise?”<br />
Gandhi posted on Twitter.<br />
Congress spokesperson<br />
Deepender Singh Hooda said he<br />
hoped Modi and the BJP would answer<br />
Gandhi’s queries on “22 years of mis-governance”<br />
in Gujarat. “We expect that the Prime<br />
Minister and the BJP to find time and answer<br />
the questions asked to them by Rahul Gandhi,”<br />
he said. “The BJP is working for the super rich<br />
and middlemen. The party’s (BJP) economic<br />
policy was at the cost of the poor,” he added.<br />
Pakistan’s infiltration<br />
bids, ceasefire violations<br />
continue : BSF<br />
“Pakistan is continuing with its attempts at infiltration.<br />
We will not let their intentions succeed<br />
their routes and are<br />
ready to handle any situation,”<br />
Sharma told<br />
reporters at the annual<br />
press conference of the<br />
Border Security Force.<br />
He said that talks<br />
with the Pakistan<br />
Rangers earlier this<br />
month were held in a<br />
cordial atmosphere.<br />
“We raised the issue of<br />
infiltration and ceasefire violations<br />
but they continue to take<br />
place,” he said.
