My heartfelt tribute to him. Kottapalle’s journey and career as a teacher of Marathi, head of the department to vice chancellor of the university and then president of the All India Marathi Literature Association is long. SPIRITUAL SPEAK Those who cling to perceptions and views wander the world offending people. —Buddha IN-DEPTH TOP TWEETS IRANIANS FIND NOVEL WAYS TO PROTEST AGAINST THEIR GOVT t has been a few months now, Iran is in turmoil over the death of Mahsa Ami- ni on September 16. Women spearheaded the protests in the beginning but were later joined by the masses. The unrest has been the centre of global attention as it is challenging the clerics and the stringent Islamic laws like wearing of hi- jab. The protests have now got nationwide support and people are ready to face bullets and jail as a consequence. Burning of head scarves by women and teenage girls was just one of the methods. Iran’s soccer team showed a passive form of protest when they did not sing their country’s national anthem at the start of one of their matches at the FIFA World Cup soccer in Qatar. What will really hit the Ira- nian government hard is the widespread celebration in several parts of Iran over their loss to the US, their sworn enemy, in their match on Wednesday . I avana and Sur- panakha made theirentryinGuja- rat’s political lexi- con. While Ravana made its debut, Surpanakha, the demon king’s sister appar- ently debuted much earlier. Both the terms should have been avoided, especially the one likening Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the mytho- logicalkingof Lanka.Compar- ing Modi to Ravana lowered thedignityof theprimeminis- ter and harmed the prospects of the Congress. The remark was made by the Congress president Mall- ikarjun Kharge while campaigning in Ahmedabad. Khargewonderedif Modihad “100 heads” like the villain in Ramayan which is why he asks people to vote in every election looking at his face. The comment won’t help the Congress as it has lost sub- stantial ground and because Gujarat is Modi’s home turf where he has made the BJP invincible. It has also exposed Kharge’s lack of knowledge aboutRamayan’scharacters--- Ravanahadtenheads,not100! The BJP hit out at the Con- gress. Gujarat Chief Minister BhupendraPatelsaidthebarb reflected Congress’s despera- tionandshowedthepartywas out to defame Gujaratis. Oth- er BJP leaders like Ravi Shankar Prasad and Amit Malviya, the party’s IT cell chief also attacked Kharge and his party . The Congress does not look at the remark as aself goal.Instead,Khargebe- ing a Dalit, the party leaders brought in Dalit politics in their war of words after he wascalled“fringe”bytheBJP . Renuka Chaudhary, former Union minister, joined the issue alleging that Modi called her a Surpanakha. The Con- gresshasforgottenhowcostly Sonia Gandhi’s “maut ke sau- dagar” jibe proved earlier. CONG REFUSES TO LEARN FROM PAST The remark was made by the Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge while campaigning in Ahmedabad. Kharge wondered if Modi had “100 heads” like the villain in Ramayan which is why he asks people to vote in every election looking at his face R ndia’s former coach Ravi Shastri has set off a big buzz by suggesting that Team In- dia should give Sanju Sam- son far more opportunities. Team India’s former coach has urged selectors, BCCI and the team management to support Samson for 10 straight matches before taking a final decision on his future highlighting the injus- tice that has dogged the international career of the skipper of the Rajasthan Royals side in the IPL. Sanju Samson fans have often accused the national selectors of ruining an incredible talent like him. Most experts feel that the ‘Kerala King’ has not been given enough chances to cement his place in the Indian team. Samson was in tremendous form this year but the selectors didn’t pick him in the squad for the T20 World Cup or for the Asia Cup. This has happened in a year where he had a fine IPL season and led Rajasthan Royals to their first final since 2008 when the Royals under Shane Warne won the inaugural IPL cham- pionship. How shabbily Sanju often gets treated is clear even from the New Zealand trip where the 28-year-old is tour- ing with India’s white-ball squad. Despite many seniors missing, Samson was not picked for any of the three T20 games against the Kiwis. In the first ODI game, he was picked and scored 36 runs from 38 balls after batting at number 6 and forged a crucial 94-run stand with Shreyas Iyer which helped India reach an over-300 total. After New Zealand won the first ODI, Samson was dropped again - for the sake of getting an extra bowler. The team management in- cluded batting all-rounder Deepak Hooda in place of Sanju for the next two ODI games – for Hooda as a part- time spinner could provide cushion to the other five bowlers. This further adds fuel to the fans’ anger about Sanju being treated unfairly in Team India. Given how much cricket Suryakumar Yadav has played lately, he could have been rested to give a fair chance to Samson in the middle order on the New Zealand tour. The series was an ideal time to give Saju con- tinuous game-time in the middle after years of sporad- ic chances but the opportunity was wasted. Sanju made his international debut in 2015 but since then, he’s been given very few chances. For the T20 World Cup in 2024, the choice of keeper-batsman will be between Rishabh Pant, Ishan Kishan and Samson. Though Sanju was the first to get selected, he has played much less games than the other two. The Rajasthan Royals skipper has appeared in just 16 T20Is for India. Even Ishan Kishan has played three more T20Is than Samson, while Rishabh Pant has played a huge 66 games for the country . In contrast to Pant who is going through a torrid time in white-ball games, Sanju scored 179 runs in the six T20Is he has played in 2022, averaging nearly 45 at a strike rate of 158.40. In ODIs, Samson has a career average of 66 but this year he aver- ages 71 at a strike rate of 109 in 9 innings. His stats reveal that Sanju has done exceed- ingly well in the limited chances he’s got but the team management has hardly done justice to him. Moreover, Samson has always been the kind of player who doesn’t waste balls, plays impact innings and can change the course of a match in a matter of a few balls. As a dynamic batter, Sanju can be sent in both at the start of the innings or in the middle order. Despite being a wicket- keeper, he’s an outstanding fielder in the outfield. Sadly, Sanju does not figure even in the squads announced for the upcoming tour to Bangladesh where India plays 3 ODIs before a 2-Test series. As such, he now has to wait for the IPL to showcase his talent. Given the dismal losses in the last two T20 World Cups, Team India needs to change its style of play from con- servative to aggressive and Samson fits that narrative perfectly. At a time when In- dia needs to rebuild its T20 team and prepare a strong squad for the ODI World Cup in 2023, Samson de- serves an extended run in Team India. Nearly 33 years ago, India’s legendary cricketer, Mohin- der Amarnath had famously called the selectors “a bunch of jokers.” It’s a pithy phrase that has been frequently used for Indian selectors since then. In looking at the curious case of mishandling the career of Sanju Samson, most Indian fans would tend to agree with Amarnath’s assessment even today!

Addressing a press conference, Singh said the people of Gujarat will give a befitting reply to those who used abusive words for the prime minister. “he is Gujarat’s honour and pride, while Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Pa- tel were the symbols of Gujarat’s honour and pride in the 20th Centu- ry, our Prime Minister Narendra Modi has emerged as Gujarat’s honour and pride in the 21st Century .” ‘Gandhi, Patel symbols of Gujarat’s pride, PM Modi is State’s honour’ New Delhi (ANI): The Prime Minister, Naren- dra Modi addressed the Manipur Sangai Festi- val via video message today. Labelled as the grandest festival in the state, the Manipur San- gai Festival helps in promoting Manipur as a world-class tourism destination. The festival is named after the state animal, Sangai, the brow-antlered deer found only in Manipur. Addressing the gath- ering, the Prime Minis- ter congratulated the people of Manipur for the successful organisation of the Manipur Sangai Festival. He pointed out that the festival is being organised after a gap of two years owing to the Corona pandemic and expressed delight at the grand scale of arrangements. “Ma- nipur Sangai Festi- val highlights the spirit and passion of the people of Ma- nipur”, the Prime Minister remarked as he ap- plauded the e f f o r t s and the compre- hensive vision of the Manipur Government and Chief Minister N Biren Singh for organ- ising this festival. Remarking on Ma- nipur’s abundant natural beauty, cultural richness and diversity, the Prime Minister said that everyone wants to visit the state at least once and drew an analogy to a beautiful garland that is made up of different gems. The Prime Min- ister further added that Manipur is exactly like an elegant garland where one can witness a mini India in the state. The Prime Minister underlined that India in its Amrit Kaal is moving forward with the spirit of ‘Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat’. Shedding light on the theme of the Sangai Festival which is the ‘Festival of One-ness’ the Prime Minister remarked that the successful organisation of this festival will act as a source of energy and inspiration for the nation in the days to come. “Sangai is not only the state animal of Manipur but also has a special place in India’s faith and be- liefs. The Sangai Festi- val also celebrates the biodiversity of India”, the PM Modi said. Manipur is an elegant garland where one can witness mini India: PM Everyone wants to visit the state at least once and drew an analogy to a beautiful garland that is made up of different gems. Manipur is exactly like an elegant garland where one can witness a mini India. —Narendra Modi, Prime Minister MANIPUR SANGAI FESTIVAL Shamsher Singh New Delhi: The steering committee of the Congress will decide when and where the AICC session will be held to finalize the name of Mallikarjun Kharge. But informed leaders of the party say that the convention may be held by the end of February or at the most it will be held in the first week of March. This is being said on the basis that Rahul Gan- dhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra is coming to an end in the first week of Febru- ary. If there is no hin- drance in the journey, it will reach Srinagar between February 5 and 7 and Rahul Gandhi will return to Delhi after hoisting the tricolor there. The party wants the momentum created by his visit to be continue for several months more, if not weeks, and the Con- gress wants to take advantage of this in next year’s assembly elections. According to informed sources in the Congress, the convention will be held in the break between the end of Rahul Gandhi’s yatra and the budget session of Parliament. The budgetsessionof Parlia- mentbeginstowardsthe end of January and from the second week there is a one-month break. So, the time is from the third week of February to the second week of March. Along with this, the party has to decide where the convention will be held. As- semblyelectionsaredue in Kharge’s home state Karnataka in May next year, where the Con- gressishopingtoreturn to power. That’s why Kharge’s name should be stamped by holding a convention in Karnata- ka itself. If Congress makes it a big event, the party will surely get benefit in the elections. Elections are also to be held in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh next year. But elections will be held in both the states at the end of the year and Congress had organized Nav Sankalp Shivir this year in Udaipur city of Ra- jasthan. That’s why there is less possibility of convention in these states. If Congress does not want to make it a big event and wants to keep a low profile, then it can be organized in Delhi or Haryana. When and where will Congress hold AICC session?

CRUCIAL READ Ahmedabad (PTI): The Gujarat Anti-Ter- rorist Squad has raided a manufacturing unit on the outskirts of Va- dodara city and seized a huge cache of the banned mephedrone drug and its raw material worth Rs 478.65 crore, an ATS official said on Wednesday . During the raid at the small factory-cum-go- down near Sindhrot village of Vadodara district on Tuesday night, the ATS also arrested five persons from the spot, he said. A preliminary investigation revealed the accused were making mephedrone, also known MD drug, a narcotic substance, for the last 45 days in the factory which was erected using metal sheets, the ATS said in an official release. During the raid, the ATS recovered 63.6 kg of mephedrone and 80.26 kg of its raw material worth Rs 478.65 crore, the release said. The machinery used for manufacturing the drug was also seized, it said. Those arrested have been identified as Saumil Pathak, Shailesh Kataria, Vinod Nijama, Mohammad Shafi Dewan and Bharat Chavda, the release said. The investigation revealed Vadodara resident Saumil Pathak had learnt the process of making narcotic drugs from the ‘dark web’ and roped in others after setting up the unit near Sindhrot, the ATS said. Accused Kataria, a chemistry graduate, used to work as a chem- ist at the factory to pro- duce the MD drug using various materials, while the three others used to handle other lo- gistical operations, the release said. The probe revealed Mumbai Police caught Pathak with drugs in 2017 and he was then sent to jail. During his time in jail, he came in contact with one Salim Dola, who gave Pathak guidance about drug manufacturing and also ar- ranged the raw material for him, the ATS release said.

Members of the Hin- du United Front have announced a march to the port in Vizhinjam to pledge their support for a project they say will create jobs in the region. Construction has been stalled for almost four months by pro- testers from a fishing community who say the port, being built by Asia's richest and the world's third richest man, Gautam Ada- ni, is causing erosion that has hit their live- lihoods. Protesting villagers yesterday blocked trucks carrying construction material to the project site. An attempt by the police to intervene triggered clashes in which more than 80 people were injured. The police said security had been increased around the port to prevent the Hindu group from reaching it. Rein- forcements have already been sent to the Vizhinjam area after more than 3,000 villagers stormed a police station in clashes on Sunday. We have denied permission to the rally by the Hindu United Front. We have taken enough precautions to prevent it if the front defy the order, Trivan- drum Deputy Commis- sioner of Police Ajith V was quoted as telling Reuters. The port is of strategic importance to In- dia. It is set to be India's first container tran- shipment hub, rival- ling Dubai, Singapore and Sri Lanka for business on the lucrative east-west trade routes. Both the Adani Group and the government of Kerala have denied ac- cusations the port is causing environmental damage. Police force around Adani’s port project in Kerala’s Vizhinjam.

And the free kick is what he’s capable of, it’s an incredible strike really,” expressed Southgate, quoted ESPN as reported by BBC. “In moments I thought both Foden and Rash were quiet in the first half, we decided to switch wings, and I thought thatmightallowthem to go on the outside and also the chance to come in and they responded really well, so for both to get the goals is great,” said the England boss. Southgate hails Rashford after win over Wales Sharat K Verma New Delhi: The Aam Aadmi Party has adopt- ed all the ‘old methods’ of politics. The party has no problem in dis- tributing tickets on the basis of religion and caste, nor does it have any problem in giving tickets to people with criminal antecedents to win elections. All par- ties doing traditional politics give priority to winning candidates while selecting candidates but at the same time take care of some ethics. But the Aam Aadmi Party has gone so far ahead in selecting winnable candidates that it has fielded candidates with a maximum criminal record in the Gujarat assembly elections and the municipal elections in Delhi. In Gujarat, polling is to be held on 89 seats in the first phase, and out of these 89 seats, AAP has given 32 candidates who have criminal cases against them. Out of these, there are 26 candidates who have serious criminal cases against them. Similarly , out of 250 candidates of the Municipal Corpora- tion of Delhi, 45 candidates of AAP have a criminal record more than 20 of them have serious criminal cases.

9. z Carpet bombing of rallies have happened in Gujarat. Now what results do you expect? JP Nadda: I see that Gu- jarat’s people are one sided in favour of BJP . Everyone has an unbreakable love and trust towards PM Modi and with that Gujarat unit has worked a lot. Our CM Bhupendra Patel, state president CR Patil and other leaders have worked with utmost hard work and commit- ment and campaigned for the party along with our leaders who came from outside. Moreover, the people of Gujarat have also made up their mind that they will bless the BJP . z If AAP opens its account this time around, will it be a challenge in the next election? We do not have any challenge. AAP goes to every state, contests election and claims it will form government but later their security on all the seats gets forefeited. It is anon-startedparty .Here too AAP will face the same situation. z Does BJP gain strength from Cong’s usage of words like Ra- van or king of lies? With the love that people of India have for PM Modi, they react to such comments and so do the people of Gujarat. But what needs to be under- stood is that Sonia Gan- dhi and Rahul Gandhi have not been able to di- gest that Modiji has become PM. Hence they givesuchstatementsand othersfollowsuit.Kharge sahab would give state- ments which make Soni- aji and Rahulji happy . z What will be the impact of anti-radical issue mentioned in your manifesto? Not only Gujarat, we think on these lines for the entire nation. Every body has cancerous and TB cells, but if the body is strong, these cells do not grow much. Simi- larly ,inournation,,who are anti-nationals, they want to divide India and to keep an eye on them there is a need of Anti- radical cell. z It is being said that first phase of poll is Cong dominated. What is strategy? They will not get anything and it will be a one sided result. People will support BJP and all re- cords will be broken. z How do you see your Rajasthan tour starting Thursday? Definitely ,theill-govern- ance of Gehlot Sahab’s government has made the citizens want for relief. Our role is of oppsi- tion and we will carry it outwithutmoststrength.

JPC/004/2022-24 z Where ever we go in Gujarat, there is always Modi’s name everywhere... Amit Shah: It is but natural. He is our biggest leader and wher- eever in the nation there is an election, people love and like Modiji’s name and Gujarat is Modiji’s home state. it was from here that he started the developmen- tal politics in nation. So it is obvious that people are happy with Modiji’s name and feel proud too. z Is this why Malliar- jun Kharge targets Narendra Modi? Per- haps he cannot see any other target? See, the culture of using fould words that has been promoted by Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gan- dhi, I feel that as many times bad words or re- marks have been made for Modiji, the people of Gujarat had given their decision with an even bigger majority . This time too the same shall happen. z Will AAP open its account? A: Looking at the environment it does not seem so. But let’s see what happens in future.
