💻Jk News info 📰 NEW DELHI, Mar 31: Congress President Rahul Gandhi has said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s behaviour betrays a “sense of panic” and hit out at him for presiding over a “failed” economy and not delivering on poll promises. In an interview, Rahul Gandhi said PM Narendra Modi is more of a “Publicity Minister” than a Prime Minister and is “floundering because of his arrogance”. On his own prospects of becoming the prime minister should the post Lok Sabha election result scenario permit, Rahul Gandhi said ?it would be arrogant for me to comment on the issue? and that ?the people are the masters and they will decide.?

💻Jk News info 📰 NEW DELHI, Mar 31: Actor-politician Shatrughan Sinha, who has announced that he is quitting the BJP, on Sunday said he decided to go with the Congress as it was a national party in the “true sense” and family friend Lalu Prasad also advised him to do so. He said leaders such as Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee, Samajwadi Party supremo Akhilesh Yadav and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal, among others, wanted him to join their respective parties, but he had made it clear that whatever be the situation, the constituency he would be contesting in the Lok Sabha polls would be Patna Sahib. The actor-turned-politician, who has been criticising the Modi government for long, said it was “painful” for him to leave the BJP with which he has had such a long association, but was disturbed at the treatment meted out by the party to stalwarts such as L K Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi, Arun Shourie and Yashwant Sinha. The BJP has not fielded party vete...

💻Jk News info 📰 NEW DELHI, Mar 31: The SP-BSP-RLD alliance in Uttar Pradesh is like a group photograph of people who have come together to abuse Prime Minister Narendra Modi and will not manage more than seven of 80 seats in the state, says former Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh. The ‘gathbandhan’ of the three parties in Uttar Pradesh is afraid of Modi, Singh said, recalling an old Hindi film song “Sathi haath milana saathi re” (let’s all join hands) to mock the alliance. BJP president Amit Shah would act as kingmaker in the elections, Singh, whose close aide Jaya Prada joined the saffron party recently, told PTI. “As Modiji says, where is the gathbandhan (alliance)? They are afraid of Modiji and doing ‘Saathi hath milana re’. Now where is Mamata (Banerjee)? Where is the Left and the Congress? Rahul (Gandhi) says Mamata or BJP are one and the same for Congress. This gathbandhan is a group photograph to abuse Modi,” Singh said. Asked about the alliance’s electoral prospects in t...

💻Jk News info 📰 MUMBAI, Mar 31: Nandita Das says she enjoys both acting and direction, but being behind the camera gives her more creative fulfilment. The actor-filmmaker says direction helps her in highlighting her concerns and starting conversations on various socio-political issues. “It (acting) is less demanding than direction. But while direction is far more time consuming and challenging, it is also more fulfilling, both creatively and emotionally. But each has its merit and I feel no reason to choose as I would like to do both,” Nandita said in an interview. The critically-acclaimed director, who has helmed films like “Firaaq” and “Manto”, said one should not be afraid to tell the stories they believe in. “For me, art remains a means to an end. I am more of a journey-person, so I don’t feel the pressure of reaching anywhere in particular. That comes with the benefit of not being afraid of failure, at least in the conventional sense of the word. “If you have strong convict...

💻Jk News info 📰 NEW DELHI, Mar 31: Efficient operations and financial performance are individual responsibilities of carriers, and the Government cannot interfere in their day-to-day operations, Civil Aviation Minister Suresh Prabhu said amid Jet Airways crisis and turbulent times of the domestic airlines industry. In view of intense competition, rising costs, shortage of pilots and grounding of planes hurting many domestic carriers, the minister also said the Government has been constantly responding to industry conditions and cited measures taken, including reduction in central excise duty on jet fuel to 11 per cent from 14 per cent.

💻Jk News info 📰 NEW DELHI, Mar 31: Prime Minister Narendra Modi Sunday attacked the previous Congress-led UPA government, saying its leaders indulged in corruption and kept personal interests above national interests. He also alleged that the previous government “lacked” political will to test fire the anti-satellite missile despite the country having the capability to build it. The Prime Minister also took on the entire opposition, saying they were chosen for the task by the people, but they failed to live up to their responsibility. He alleged that the opposition raked up all the wrong issues like national security and seeking proof of Balakot air strike thus questioning the armed forces. He only referred to “proof” but did not mention air strike or Balakot. “Why seek proof … why talk in favour of Pakistan,” he quipped. Modi also said that his government has the political will to withstand pressure and take immediate decisions in national interests. “Delaying decisions of na...

💻Jk News info 📰 BIJNOR (UP), Mar 31: BJP chief Amit Shah Sunday ridiculed Congress president Rahul Gandhi for his decision to contest from Wayanad Lok Sabha constituency, saying he has “fled” to Kerala fearing that Amethi voters will seek an account of work done by him and his party over the years. Shah was speaking at his first election meeting in western UP, where voting will be held on April 11. The saffron party had won all eight Lok Sabha seats in the region in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. “Rahul Gandhi has fled to Kerala as he fears that Amethi voters will seek an account (of work) from him,” the BJP chief said. “In Kerala, there is politics of appeasement, hence he is going there. You have played with the security of the country for your vote bank politics. Wherever you will go, people of the country will ask you to give an account (of your work),” Shah said.

💻Jk News info 📰 WASHINGTON, Mar 31: Border officials are aiming to more than quadruple the number of asylum seekers sent back over the southern border each day, a major expansion of a top government effort to address the swelling number of Central Americans arriving in the country, a Trump administration official said Saturday.
