AWAKENINGS

  Preface: After reading the article under the head “Prashant Kishor moots Sonia Gandhi as Congress chief, new working president” in the Hindu Daily Newspaper of 21 st April 2022, I wrote the article below. Krishna or Kamsa Kishor wants Congress to draw inspirations, plans and executions on the five gestures of the dancing Shiva - Nataraja which represents five activities – viz. creation – drum, protection – abaya mudra, destruction – burning fire, embodiment – foot planted on the ground, release – foot held aloft.   Kishor wants to join Congress Party as a Main Party Man with position and power to chalk out strategies to be implemented unquestioned and answerable only to Sonia, Rahul and Priyanka – Triumvirate.

  Jammu and Kashmir State Land (Vesting of Ownership to Occupants) Act, 2001 commonly known as Roshni Act was promulgated during Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah's government in 2001. By this act, Jammu and Kashmir State lands were given to unauthorised occupants of those lands with a cut-off of 1990 upon payment of a sum to be determined by the Government of Jammu and Kashmir with the aim of raising money for power projects. Since the aim was to generate resources for hydroelectric power projects, it was called Roshni Act – Light Act. Roshni means Light. In 2005, the PDP-Congress coalition government led by Mufti Mohammad Sayeed amended the Act to relax the cut-off year from 1990 to 2004. In a later amendment, the Ghulam Nabi Azad government set the premium at 25% of the market rate and the cut-off date at 2007. The said so called Roshni Act – supposed to bring Light to the J & K was aimed at to bring permanent Darkness to Kashmiri Pundits as this act of Farooq Abdullah

  WEST BENGAL BECAM E WORST BENGAL – COURTESY: DIDI’S TMC Tuesday 22nd March 2022 became a black Day for West Bengal Didi Government, as eight to ten people including six women and two children were burnt alive in Bogtui village in Birbhum district of West Bengal due to a group of enraged miscreants setting ablaze around 12 homes. The autopsy report of the burnt bodies shows that the people were beaten before they were locked in their homes and before the houses were set on fire. The massacre had taken place in retaliation of the alleged murder of a local TMC panchayat member Bagdu Sheikh. It was reported that    a gang of four miscreants, travelling on two motorcycles with their faces covered, hurled bombs on Bhadu Sheikh of Boroshal gram panchayat, at a tea stall on Monday 21st March evening. Sheikh was declared brought dead at Rampurhat Hospital. The victim's family accused his party colleagues of killing him over an internal feud after the murder of his brother Babar last year.

The three farm laws were — The Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, The Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement of Price Assurance and Farm Services Act, and The Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act.   Due to continued agitations and blockades by farmers mostly from Punjab, Supreme Court on January 2020 stayed the implementation of the three farm laws duly passed by the Legislatures.   After staying the farm laws, the Supreme Court set up a panel of four distinguished experts to study the aspects of the laws. The credentials of four members are Ashok Gulati - Agriculture economist, Anil Ghanwat, President of Shetkari Sanghatana (Maharashtra), Pramod Kumar Joshi - International Food Policy Research Institute and Bhupinder Singh Mann -   President of a faction of the Bhartiya Kisan Union who later left the panel.

  Ram Navami is celebrated to commemorate the birth of Lord Rama.     King Dasharatha - the King of Ayodhya had three queens, Kaushalya, Sumitra, and Kaikeyi. The three queens were unable to give birth to a child for a very long time.   King Dashratha performed a sacred ritual known as “Putrakameshti Yagna,” which was suggested by Sage Vasishtha.   In the ritual, the king served ‘payasam’ to all his wives to fulfill his wish of having a child.   As a result, the king was blessed with a baby boy on the ninth day of the Hindu month, Chitra.   Queen Kaushalya gave birth to Lord Rama, whereas the other queens gave birth to Lakshmana and Bharata.   E-TOUCH    PRAYS     SHRI     RAM   TO   BLESS      US      ALL
