THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX | How to solve Kerala’s train travel problem once and for all with ₹150 crore? 🧵 In 2012, the Oomen Chandy government came up with a plan to build a high-speed rail corridor from Mangalore to Trivandrum. The estimated cost was around ₹1.18 lakh crore. It was planned to be funded through a Japanese loan from JICA. The project was opposed by the then opposition parties. The project was eventually dropped. In 2020, the present Left government under Pinarayi Vijayan brought back the high-speed rail project, named SilverLine, with a cost estimate of ₹64,000 crore. These numbers were rejected by NITI Aayog, which estimated the cost at around ₹1.2 lakh crore. There were strong public protests against forceful land acquisition, and the project was dropped by the government in 2022. We also strongly opposed it, as our estimate was that the final cost would easily cross ₹1.5 lakh crore, ticket prices would go up to around ₹6,000 to make it viable, and there would not be enough ridership. Now it is BJP’s turn. They opposed both earlier projects and have now come up with a new proposal using DMRC’s former chairman, Padma Vibhushan Dr. E. Sreedharan, who later joined BJP. This high-speed rail proposal, unlike SilverLine, is 90% elevated and ends at Kannur instead of Kasargod or Mangalore. The estimated cost is around ₹200 crore per kilometre, with an overall cost of more than ₹80,000 crore. Fair enough. However, the estimate of ₹200 crore per kilometre looks like an underestimate when we look at the Mumbai–Ahmedabad bullet train. That project started with a cost of ₹216 crore per kilometre and has now reached ₹393 crore per kilometre, even though it is only half completed. By the time it is finished, the cost could touch ₹500 crore per kilometre, if not more. Leaving these big and fancy projects aside, let us come back to the core problem and look at it differently. Take a close look at this video. This shows the weekly train schedule from Kannur towards the south. If you observe carefully, the green-coloured trains are those that run within Kerala, while the red ones are outstation trains that either terminate at stations in Kerala or pass through the state. What does this tell us? (1/8)

Khata-Khat badh gayi mehengai! After not fulfilling the promises of transferring Rs 8500/month to a woman of each family, Congress ruled Karnataka government has saddled the people of Karnataka with the burden of paying Rs 3/litre more for petrol and diesel in the state. After this decision, people of Karnataka would be forced to pay higher amounts for food items, clothing, medicines and all items of basic necessities as fuel prices directly impact prices of all goods. Such a decision just after elections have been concluded, exposes the hypocrisy of the Congress which talks about mehengai but levies approximately Rs 8litre-Rs 12/litre additional VAT in comparison with BJP ruled states. With this hike, petrol in Karnataka is now Rs 8.21/litre more expensive than both BJP-run governments in UP and Gujarat. The price gap is even more staggering if Karnataka is compared with BJP-governed Arunachal Pradesh where the party has come back to power strongly. The petrol prices in Karnataka are over Rs 12/litre higher than in Arunachal. The price gap for diesel is Rs 8.59/litre between the two states with Arunachal being much less expensive. During the last three years of global energy turmoil, the NDA government led by PM Narendra Modi Ji deftly diversified India’s crude oil purchases to ensure that petrol prices actually decreased by about 14% and diesel prices fell by nearly 11% during November 2021 -May 2024 period. During the same period, US saw petrol prices soar 29%, while neighbours Pakistan and Sri Lanka faced severe financial stress due to spike in global crude prices. Additionally, to maintain availability and affordability of transport fuels, Modi government made substantial and timely cut in excise duty in November 2021 and followed it up with another cut in May 2022. The Central govt reduced petrol and diesel prices by ₹5 per litre and ₹10 per litre, respectively, in November 2021. Following up in May 2022, petrol and diesel prices were further cut by ₹8 per litre and ₹6 per litre, respectively. Again on March 14 this year, the OMCs played a vital role in reducing prices further by Rs 2/litre. The BJP-run state governments aligned with the pro-people policies and reduced sales tax on transport fuels to further cut rates for the public and rein in inflationary pressures. For instance, petrol prices in Congress-ruled Telangana is Rs 12.76/litre higher than in UP. The difference in diesels prices between these two states is also significant at Rs 7.89/litre. Similarly, the petrol prices are Rs 9.29/ litre higher in Trinamool Congress-run West Bengal compared with BJP-run Gujarat. PM Modi Ji’s visionary leadership ensured that while the world was facing fuel price surge due to a war in Europe, India remained the only country during that period where petrol and diesel prices went down. #Khatakhat #Hypocrisy

The United States Govt has also complained about UPI and RuPay cards affecting the business of American Visa and Mastercard in India, which charge a transaction fee of 1-1.5%. Is this also a reason that the Modi Govt has decided to impose a transaction fee on the free UPI transactions, in order to cater to these demands? The surreptitious change in law appears to suggest so. NPCI IS IN PROFIT, THEN WHY IMPOSE A UPI TRANSACTION TAX? ● NPCI has shown a pre-tax operating profit of Rs. 1900 Crore. The Modi Govt earned Rs. 1000 Crore in tax from NPCI last year. In addition, NPCI’s balance sheet has Rs. 6119 Crore in hard cash. ● What then is the justification for changing the law and imposing a UPI transaction tax, except for foreign pressure at the cost of ordinary Indians? MODI GOVT’s & NPCI’s LAME-DUCK EXPLANATION OF INABILITY TO SUBSIDISE FREE UPI TRANSACTIONS IS A HOAX ● The lame-duck explanation of free UPI transactions and security protocols requiring Rs. 20,000 Crore annually as a reason for imposing a UPI transaction tax is not only hollow but exposes the malintent of the BJP Govt. ● Let us juxtapose this farcical argument with the profit of PSU banks in 2025-26, which was Rs. 2 Lakh Crore (PIB Press Release Dated 29th May 2026). ● RBI also transferred surplus funds to the Modi Govt to the extent of Rs. 2.86 Lakh Crores for the year 2025-26. ● Even leaving this aside, PSUs/Private Banks earned Rs. 57,259 Crores only by way of Minimum Amount Penalty, Debit Card charges & Account Maintenance fees as per a Rajya Sabha reply dated 28th July 2026. ● Also, NPCI has a pretax operating profit of Rs. 1900 Crores and hard cash reserves of Rs. 6000 Crores. So this demolishes the entire Subsidy Argument being given as an excuse for imposing UPI Transaction Tax.The hoax is writ large. NATION DEMANDS ANSWERS!

On the eve of Teachers' Day, I paid my heartfelt tribute today to Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan at Dhanadhanya Auditorium. I also extended my sincere respect to all the teachers and educators who have illuminated our lives with knowledge for generations. I am proud to have acknowledged the extraordinary contributions of 73 teachers in the field of education in Bengal at this grand event by presenting them with the 'Siksha Ratna' award. Additionally, 12 schools in the State were honoured as 'Sera Vidyalaya' for their overall excellence in academics and sports. Today, we also honoured 387 meritorious students who secured a place in the merit lists of this year's Madhyamik, Higher Secondary, Alim, Fazil, High-Madrasah, ICSE, ISC, CBSE (Class 10 and 12), Joint Entrance, and Vocational examinations. This included meritorious tribal and Scheduled Caste students, who were also felicitated. I once again extend my best wishes to all of them. Our 'Ma-Mati-Manush' government has introduced various scholarships and other benefits so that the students of Bengal don't have to worry about their education. 93 lakh girls are now part of the. ‘Kanyashree’ program. We have provided approximately Rs. 16,000 crore to these girls under this programme. More than 1.25 crore scholarships have been given to tribal and scheduled caste students under ‘Shikkhashree’ scheme. Under 'Aikyashree' and other minority scholarships, approximately 4.56 crore scholarships have been provided to minority students at a cost of Rs. 9,747 cr. About 40,000 minority students have also received Rs. 316 crore in educational loans. 6.65 lakh scholarships have been given to OBC students under the ‘Medhashree’ program. 36.55 lakh students have received Vivekananda Merit-cum-Means Scholarship. 53 lakh students have received smartphones under 'Taruner Swapna' at a cost of Rs. 5,300 crore. We have already distributed more than 1.38 crore bicycles under ‘Sabooj Sathi’ with a total cost of approximately Rs. 4,730 crore. The distribution of bicycles has started this year as well, and an additional 12.50 lakh students will receive them at a cost of Rs. 525 crore. Approximately Rs. 10,000 crore has been spent to provide students with free textbooks, school uniforms, school bags, and shoes. We have seen the benefits of our work. The dropout rate has significantly decreased, from the primary to the higher secondary levels. In 2011, the dropout rate at the higher secondary level was 17.48%, which has now dropped to 3.30%. Today, I also unveiled the book, 'The Gems of Bengal, 2025', a compilation of the life stories and aspirations of the State's meritorious students. This day has become more memorable for me for a very personal reason, also. I once had the opportunity to be a part of the noble profession of teaching. From 1975 to 1978, for three years, I taught at Manmatha Nath Nandan Boys and Girls School (now known as Bhawanipur Modern School). Today, the school's headmistress, Dr. Srilata De, and one of the members of the school's management committee, Mr. Biswanath Basu, honoured me as a former teacher. This recognition brings me great pride and joy. Finally, I would like to tell my young students: apart from being good at your studies, you must become good human beings as well. You must work for the betterment of the nation, for the people, and for Bengal. Remember, true intelligence builds society. All teachers of Bengal are our pride. I offer my humble respect and best wishes to all these architects of human beings on the eve of Teachers' Day. Jai Hind. Jai Bangla.

#WATCH | Hyderabad | BRS Working President KT Rama Rao says, "They suspended us because we raised questions about this matter. That is precisely why we visited the very site where land was allotted to the Chief Minister's brother's shell company. We want to ask the Chief Minister a direct question. You keep claiming that you work 18 hours a day. We ask you: for whom are you working those 18 hours? Is it for your brothers and their shell companies? If a young person from Telangana were to start a company with a capital of just Rs 1 lakh today, would you allot them land worth Rs 200 crore? Meanwhile, your leader Rahul Gandhi questions Modi ji, asking why business is being conducted with Israel. Yet, here in Telangana, your government—and no one else—is doing business with Israel. The Chief Minister's own brother, Anumula Kundal Reddy, has directly entered into a partnership with an Israeli innovation company to set up an aerospace and defense venture and has acquired five acres of land here; Rahul ji and Revanth Reddy ji must answer for this. Is this the way it works? Is this what 'Indira Amma Rajam' means? Does the main principle of your 'Indira Amma Rajam' involve enriching all your siblings and relatives? You must provide answers. You promised the people of Telangana a pension of Rs 4,000 within 100 days, Rs 2,500 to every woman within 100 days, and an unemployment allowance of S 4,000 within 100 days. No one received anything. However, the Chief Minister's unemployed brother are securing excellent employment opportunities and landing land worth Rs 200 crore; naturally, this will raise many questions among the public. If the BJP is sincere then there should immediately be an investigation by the ED, the IT department, and the CBI, and the whole truth must be brought to light. The details regarding how land was allotted to shell companies and how the entire scam unfolded need to be exposed."

The ₹18,500 Cr Tunnel Scam is not a mobility solution, it's a world-class corruption project by the Congress Govt in the state led by CM Siddaramaiah & DCM DK Shivakumar. It aims to serve the 10% car owning elite while burdening 90% of taxpayers who await better public transport. Here’s why: 1. Built for cars, not the city As per IISc data: - Tunnel (cars only): 600-1600 people/hour - Tunnel (with 2Ws): 7,500 people/hour - Metro (same corridor): 25,000 people/hour Yet, the govt wants to spend taxpayer money on a project for less than 10% who own private cars. This is perhaps only going to benefit the crorepatis of Sadashivnagar & Koramangala 4th block & not the common man. 2. BBMP's ₹9.5 Cr Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V DPR job BBMP paid a hefty sum of public money to allegedly debarred consultants for a bogus feasibility report. Some blatant irregularities in their reports - - Feasibility report created after Jan 2024, uses traffic survey images from Aug 2023 - Traffic junction photo from 2019 appears in a 2024 report. - Even worse, the reports refer to Malegaon-Nashik in Maharashtra while analyzing Bengaluru's traffic! This isn't planning, it's daylight robbery. It's a Rs 9.5 Cr fraud paid for with hard earned taxpayers money. 3. India’s most expensive road per km. If executed, the ₹18,500 crore Tunnel Road will be the most expensive road per kilometre in the world. Will they build it with golden bricks? Why this vanity White Elephant? For perspective: - Bengaluru–Mysuru Expressway: ₹8,500 Cr for 119 km (6 lanes) - Atal Tunnel: ₹3,000 Cr for 9 km through the Himalayas - Mumbai Coastal Road: ₹13,000 Cr for 29.2 km with undersea tunnel - Kerala Coastal Highway: ₹6,500 Cr for 625 km with multiple tunnels - KR Puram–Silk Board Metro: ₹5,500 Cr for 18 km with 13 stations Congress wants ₹18,500 Cr for just 18 km, only for cars. Bengaluru’s future is being mortgaged for a vanity project that serves contractors, not its citizens. We will oppose this scam in the streets, in the courts, and in the Vidhana Soudha & Parliament. Bengaluru & Bengalureans deserve better! #SayNoToTunnelRoads

A Twist in the Tale: Has BJP become the adda of corrupt? In the run up to the 2014 general elections, the BJP centred its campaign around alleged corruption under the Congress-led UPA government, promising ‘ache din’ . Several times during the campaign, Narendra Modi Ji grandiloquently promised to jail the corrupt. He was equally loud about bringing back 'all the looted money stashed away in Swiss banks and eliminating black money'. People gave BJP a decisive mandate and Modi became PM in 2014. On 8th November 2016 in a public broadcast PM Modi declared that Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 notes would cease to be legal tender and grandiosely announced that the purpose of #demonetisation was to crackdown on corruption and eliminate black money. It, however, turned out to be spurious. Recently, Supreme Court Justice B. V. Nagarathna said in a conference in Hyderabad that in the Indian economy at that time, Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes comprised 86% of the currency and wondered about the goal of the demonetisation exercise since 98% of those notes came back to banks. She also questioned about black money eradication as demonetisation became a good way of converting black money into white money. In 2017 the BJP government introduced #ElectoralBond Scheme, which was anonymous financial contributions to political parties, by amending several laws namely, the Representation of the People Act, 1951, the Companies Act, 2013, the Income Tax Act, 1961. Its avowed purpose was to enhance transparency and accountability in political funding by eliminating black money, corruption. etc. The Supreme Court has recently struck down this secret political funding as unconstitutional and directed disclosure of complete details of all electoral bonds. From the data available in public domain, thanks to the Supreme Court, it came to light that the BJP is the biggest beneficiary as out of total Rs. 11,450 crores it received Rs. 6,566 crores which is 57%. Contemporaneous evidence indicates that #ElectoralBonds have all the ingredients of a huge scam such as quid pro quo and corruption, shell and loss making companies donating to political parties huge sums of money suspected to be kickbacks, and laundering of black money. In order to shield our democratic process from foreign interference, the laws regulating foreign contributions prohibited political parties and candidates in elections from accepting foreign contributions. But the BJP government through Finance Acts, 2016 and 2018 amended with retrospective effect the Foreign Contributions (Regulation) Act, 2010 (#FCRA) by changing the definition of ‘foreign source’ not only condoning the past illegalities committed but also permitting political parties to receive foreign funds, and thereby paved way for foreign intrusion into our political and electoral process compromising our sovereignty. Further, notwithstanding the huge propaganda of alleged action against Foreign Funded NGOs, there has been a huge spike in #FCRA remittances since the 2014-15. While during the 20 years between financial years 1994-1995 and 2013-14 an amount of Rs. 1,51,036 Crores was received, during the 8 years between 2014-15 and 2023-24 Rs. 1,46,392 was received. Data for financial years 2022-23 and 2023-24 is not yet available. However, from the trends of #FCRA remittances in the preceding years it will be around Rs. 50,000 Crores together for both the financial years, making the total FCRA remittances during 10 year rule of BJP to be around Rs. 2,00,000 Crores which is humongous. Even if a small fraction of that huge amount of foreign funds has gone to political parties or candidates in elections, it amounts to serious subversion of our democracy and constitution. What sort of patriotism is this? Several months prior to 2014 general elections, a spate of alleged scams during UPA rule surfaced namely, Chit Fund scam, Chopper scam, Tatra truck scam, 2G Spectrum scam, CWG scam, Coal scam, Adarsh scam, etc. The courts, CBI, ED and IT proactively initiated action as a result several Congress and UPA leaders came under scanner. Though the BJP came to power on the anti-corruption plank, hardly any political leaders of significance was convicted, nor even paisa of black money stashed away in Swiss banks was brought back. On the other hand, the BJP has allegedly been misusing the law enforcement agencies to arm-twist the opposition political leaders under cloud either to defect to or align with the BJP. Out of 25 important opposition leaders who were allegedly under the scanner and joined BJP, 23 have reportedly got reprieve. Politicians like Andhra Pradesh CM YS Jagan who faces 38 criminal cases including 11 CBI and 7 ED cases, have been buying peace from the BJP. As a result none of his cases have seen the light of the day, notwithstanding the direction of Supreme Court to speed up trial of cases against politicians. Likewise, the DMK leaders namely, the Maran brothers, A. Raja, Karunanidhi’s daughter Kanimozhi have been acquitted, after they not so secretly cosied up to BJP, thanks to the lacklustre prosecution of their cases before the courts. These are only representative examples of how the BJP has become the adda for the leaders facing allegations of corruption, money laundering, etc. It is quite possible that some of them may be genuinely innocent. But as their innocence has been established only after their defection to or aligning with the ruling BJP, it creates dark shadows by raising serious moral questions. Last year, fourteen political parties approached the Supreme Court against the alleged misuse of central investigating agencies in arresting opposition political leaders and other citizens exercising their fundamental right to dissent and disagree with the ruling BJP. It was alleged that 95% of political leaders investigated by CBI and ED belong to opposition. That is, out of 121 prominent politicians facing ED probe between 2014 and 2022, 115 are opposition leaders who had been booked, raided, questioned or arrested. To wriggle out of or deflect the allegations of promoting corruption, shielding the corrupt who have joined or aligned with the BJP and targeting opposition leaders, etc, one of the standard refrains of the BJP has been that as Narendra Modi has no family he cannot be corrupt or has no motivation to be corrupt or shield the corrupt. That is a disingenuous argument. Late Jayalalitha, who was a spinster with no family, was convicted for corruption and was sent to jail. There are many prominent leaders who are unmarried or have no families facing cases or allegations of corruption. I don’t mean to even hint let alone allege that Narendra Modi is personally financially corrupt. I merely want to call out their bluff by highlighting the point that there is no connection between one’s familial status and corruption. It must be recalled that Manmohan Singh, whose personal financial integrity was impeccable, presided over a corrupt regime. As such, personal financial honesty of PM or a CM is meaningless if his party and government are not honest. Barring honourable exceptions, every political party while in opposition grandiloquently talks against corruption, not necessarily because they are honest, but because they try to make a virtue of out of lack of opportunities to make money. Notwithstanding its anti-corruption rhetoric the BJP is no stranger to corruption as its unsavory history tells. In 2001, none other than its National President late Bangaru Laxman was caught on the camera taking bribe from one Mathew Samuel, and was later convicted by a Special CBI Court on 27th April 2012 and sentenced to four years in jail. Further, BJP’s former CM of Karnataka Sri B. S. Yeddyurappa faced charges of corruption and was also in jail for a while. There are allegations of misdeeds of BJP government in PM-CARES Fund which is mired in secrecy, in sale of Air India to Tatas for peanuts, about CAG’s concern about astronomical escalation in cost of construction of Dwarka Expressway from Rs. 18.2 crores per km to Rs. 251 crores per km, in the utility of more than Rs. 14,000 crores public funds for Namami Gange project while the sacred Ganga is on the verge becoming a sewer like Yamuna, and several others. The #ElectoralBondScam which points to several alleged scams, is only a tip of the iceberg. It seems further action to take it to logical end has come to a naught. Therefore, having seen the fate of investigation and trial of all the alleged scams and how the political class sabotage, it is imperative that a Special Investigation Team (SIT) comprising serving or retired officers specially chosen by the Supreme Court, which will not be part of any Law Enforcement Agency but independently directly reporting to the Supreme Court, would alone will be able to unravel the truth. It is pertinent to recall the stellar role of RTI Act and the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 (before it was amended in 2018) in exposing alleged corruption in the Congress-led UPA government. Information is power. So, the RTI Act empowered people to seek information from public authorities on all official matters (barring a very few exceptions). Based on that information obtained through RTI process about alleged corrupt deals, illegalities, etc during UPA rule, the CBI which had no legal shackles could initiate enquiries and investigation into those allegations. The BJP while in opposition used and exploited this situation to the hilt to oust the Congress-led UPA from power. And having formed government the BJP is acutely aware of the dangers for the corrupt lurking in these laws. So they have systematically wrecked the RTI Act so much so that it has gone from citizens’ most powerful tool to an Act on life support. In 2018 they amended the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988. As per new section 17A introduced therein, “No police officer shall conduct any enquiry or inquiry or investigation into any offence alleged to have been committed by a public servant under this Act, where the alleged offence is relatable to any recommendation made or decision taken by such public servant in discharge of his official functions or duties, without the previous approval” of respective governments or appointing authority of the public servant. Which government will permit investigation into its own misdeeds? While Justice R. M. Lodha in 2013 denounced the CBI as a ‘caged parrot’, the BJP government translated his oral observation into a legal reality by destroying the Prevention of Corruption Act. Evidently, the real purpose of BJP undermining RTI Act and emasculating the CBI was to prevent visitation of fate similar to that of UPA by insulating and firewalling themselves from any future enquiries and investigations into their alleged corrupt deeds. Finally, there is an uncanny resemblance between the BJP’s anti-corruption rhetoric with a story in Jeffrey Archer’s popular book, ‘A Twist in the Tale’, which goes like this: Ignatius Agarbi was the new Financial Minister of Nigeria. He begins a sweep on corruption and makes a name for himself. Impressed by his extreme honesty, his president entrusted him to find out how many Nigerians have stashed their bribes in Switzerland. He arrives at the Swiss Bank with a briefcase. Despite his greatest persuasion, the Swiss banker refuses to break their code of privacy. In the end, Ignatius places a gun to the head of the Swiss banker and threatens to kill him. Still the banker refuses to divulge any confidential information. Ignatius, who was actually extremely corrupt, was only checking to find out if the Swiss Banks would actually reveal the name of an account holder. Delighted with their secrecy, Ignatius deposits $5 million in cash which he had skimmed as Financial Minister.”

A Twist in the Tale: Has BJP become the adda of corrupt? In the run up to the 2014 general elections, the BJP centred its campaign around alleged corruption under the Congress-led UPA government, promising ‘ache din’ . Several times during the campaign, Narendra Modi Ji grandiloquently promised to jail the corrupt. He was equally loud about bringing back 'all the looted money stashed away in Swiss banks and eliminating black money'. People gave BJP a decisive mandate and Modi became PM in 2014. On 8th November 2016 in a public broadcast PM Modi declared that Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 notes would cease to be legal tender and grandiosely announced that the purpose of #demonetisation was to crackdown on corruption and eliminate black money. It, however, turned out to be spurious. Recently, Supreme Court Justice B. V. Nagarathna said in a conference in Hyderabad that in the Indian economy at that time, Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes comprised 86% of the currency and wondered about the goal of the demonetisation exercise since 98% of those notes came back to banks. She also questioned about black money eradication as demonetisation became a good way of converting black money into white money. In 2017 the BJP government introduced #ElectoralBond Scheme, which was anonymous financial contributions to political parties, by amending several laws namely, the Representation of the People Act, 1951, the Companies Act, 2013, the Income Tax Act, 1961.

The scandal that puts Canadians in multigenerational debt: The Gordie Howe International Bridge project that will connect Detroit to Windsor was pitched as a billion dollar project in 2012 by the Harper government. The trouble is that the cost is now estimated to be around $7 billion dollars. However, studies suggest toll revenue will never be enough to recoup the cost, and with interest payments the bridge will likely require decades of taxpayer subsidies that could amount to $52 billion dollars. Here are the facts: 📌 There is an already existing bridge in the area called the Ambassador bridge which offered to build a second span for free. 📌 American government is not paying a dime for the project, and Canada is paying for all costs including the custom compound and the highway interchange on U.S. soil. 📌 In 2010 the government manufactured the DRIC report to justify the new bridge, it had gross miscalculations and inaccuracies in projecting the cross border traffic to increase over decades to come. 📌 Empirical data shows that cross border traffic has overall declined more than 50% in the area for last 2 decades, and there’s no reason for it to rebound. 📌 Studies demonstrate that even if the traffic stopped declining, and Gordie Howe were to charge 3 times more in toll than the ambassador bridge next door, and drivers were to prefer to chose paying more for some reason, taxpayers would still have to subsidize the bridge for at least 6 decades. 📌 The procurement process was shady as transparency and fairness letters were issued 1 day before the awarding. 📌 AECON dropped out of the bidding process the last business day, and then was allowed back in to join the winning consortium for reasons unknown. 📌 The construction giants that bid against each other in this project are actively working together on other multi billion dollar P3 projects across Canada while bidding against each other in other projects. 📌 Amarjeet Sohi was the infrastructure minister at the time whose brother’s trucking company that he did not disclose was already doing business with VINCI in the federally funded Regina bypass project. Navdeep Bains blocked AECON’s sale to China, and Sohi allowed AECON to join back into this dream project for some reason. Bains was also giving sole sourced contracts to Sohi’s brother’s trucking company. 📌 WDBA says they expect to finish off paying the bridge in 30 years by collecting toll revenue, and then start splitting the revenues with the state of Michigan. But given that toll revenue alone will not even be enough to pay the hundreds of millions of dollars in annual interest, the Michigan taxpayers might be asked to pay for the bridge to make up for the shortfalls in toll revenue. 📌 Canadian politicians both liberal and conservative have put Canadians in multigenerational debt by actively participating with nefarious construction giants. 📌 Allegations of bid-rigging are worrisome as corrupt companies like SNC-Lavalin participated in the bidding while they were under a 10-year ban by the World Bank for committing corruption in the poorest countries of the world. 📌ACS which the project was awarded to also have a history of corruption around the world. 📌 VINCI which partnered up with SNC on the GHIB project was already working with Sohi’s brother’s trucking company on the Regina bypass project. This is how an unnecessary bridge that was pitched as a billion dollar project ended up costing $7 billion dollars, and will require tens of billions of dollars in subsidies to make up for the shortfall in toll revenue. Only Amarjert Sohi and his nefarious nexus Including domestic and foreign construction giants will benefit at the cost of Canadian and U.S. taxpayers. I asked a legal scholar who’s considered to be the leading authority on extradition law if these Canadian politicians could be extradited to U.S. Check out the comment section to watch my full report.

In one of the #Bengaluru's biggest heists, domestic staff allegedly decamped with gold, diamond and silver jewellery worth an estimated Rs 18 crore from a builder's residence at ASK Lake Garden on #Kempapura Main Road in #Yamaluru recently. The accused are a Nepalese couple identified as Dinesh (32) and his wife Kamala (25). According to the complaint filed by Shimanth S Arjun (28), a businessman, the theft occurred between 9 am and 12.30 pm on January 25. Arjun, son of MR Shivakumar, told #MarathahalliPolice that his family has been residing in the house for the past 19 years. His father Shivakumar, a builder, was out of town for work at the time of the incident. Dinesh and Kamala had joined as housekeepers about 20 days ago through acquaintances identified as Vikash and Maya Vishu. They were employed at the house along with cooks Siddharama and Ambika. On January 25, at around 9 am, the complainant, along with his wife and mother, left the house to attend his wife's land worship ceremony at H Cross on Hoskote-Chintamani Road. At around 12.38 pm the same day, Arjun received a call from the cook Ambika, who alerted him that cupboard locks had been broken and valuables stolen, allegedly by Dinesh and Kamala with the help of others. When the family rushed back, they found that a locker in the ground-floor bedroom had been broken open using an iron bar, with about 10 kg of gold and diamond ornaments stolen. Another locker in the first-floor bedroom was also found broken, from which around 1.5 kg of gold ornaments, about 5 kg of silver jewellery and Rs 11.5 lakh in cash were missing. In all, gold, diamond and silver ornaments and cash worth approximately Rs 18 crore were reported stolen. The complainant alleged that the couple had closely observed the movements of family members in advance. Police have registered a case under Section 306 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (theft by clerk or servant of property in possession of master). Efforts are on to nab the absconding couple. A senior police officer said the suspects had disconnected the power supply to disable CCTV cameras. The complainant further told police that the couple were replacements for regular domestic staff Vikash and Maya and had agreed to work for a monthly salary of Rs 27,000. Despite repeated requests, they did not submit identity proofs.

In one of the #Bengaluru's biggest heists, domestic staff allegedly decamped with gold, diamond and silver jewellery worth an estimated Rs 18 crore from a builder's residence at ASK Lake Garden on #Kempapura Main Road in #Yamaluru recently. The accused are a Nepalese couple identified as Dinesh (32) and his wife Kamala (25). According to the complaint filed by Shimanth S Arjun (28), a businessman, the theft occurred between 9 am and 12.30 pm on January 25. Arjun, son of MR Shivakumar, told #MarathahalliPolice that his family has been residing in the house for the past 19 years. His father Shivakumar, a builder, was out of town for work at the time of the incident. Dinesh and Kamala had joined as housekeepers about 20 days ago through acquaintances identified as Vikash and Maya Vishu. They were employed at the house along with cooks Siddharama and Ambika. On January 25, at around 9 am, the complainant, along with his wife and mother, left the house to attend his wife's land worship ceremony at H Cross on Hoskote-Chintamani Road. At around 12.38 pm the same day, Arjun received a call from the cook Ambika, who alerted him that cupboard locks had been broken and valuables stolen, allegedly by Dinesh and Kamala with the help of others. When the family rushed back, they found that a locker in the ground-floor bedroom had been broken open using an iron bar, with about 10 kg of gold and diamond ornaments stolen.

Corruption: The Real Reason Trump Won’t Allow the Gordie Howe Bridge to Open? U.S. President Donald Trump announced yesterday that he will not permit the opening of the new international bridge spanning the Michigan River. The P3 project is several years late and has seen billions of dollars in cost overruns. It not only has the hallmarks of bid rigging, collusion, and antitrust breaches, but also involved the Canadian government allowing some of the most notoriously corrupt construction giants to participate in the procurement process, such as SNC-Lavalin, VINCI, and ACS Infrastructure. On top of all that, the procurement and the early stages of the project were overseen by Canadian politicians with direct ties to Sikh extremists, namely affiliates of the World Sikh Organization (WSO), whose executives have a long history of proximity to violence and terrorism. In this video report, I summarize my initial report from February 11, 2024, where I interviewed industry expert and whistleblower Bob Rai, who provided me with evidence he compiled over more than a decade, and Dr. Gary Botting, a double-PhD, former criminal defence lawyer, and leading expert on extradition law. Dr. Botting complimented Mr. Rai’s research skills, saying it warrants an investigation by authorities, and outlined that the U.S. does have standing to prosecute and extradite those involved in the project if it deems the allegations to be prima facie. The cost of the project, which is being absorbed entirely by Canadian taxpayers, is about $7 billion, but according to a 2018 study by Toronto professor Eric Miller, it could take the bridge more than 61 years to pay off its debt, with total taxpayer subsidies ranging from $14 billion to $52 billion over the life of the project. Amarjeet Sohi, a former suspected Khalistani terrorist who was jailed in India, and who has faced credible allegations of corruption involving his family and election donors’ firm in another P3 project, was the infrastructure minister who oversaw most of the procurement process, including key stages such as the selection of the preferred bidder for the Gordie Howe International Bridge Project. Sohi hired a WSO executive’s son, as an assistant at the time, while the other son was hired as director of operations by Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan, whose father was also a WSO executive. Navdeep Bains, another minister whose decision-making had influence over the project, was himself a WSO executive. The question arises how much influence the WSO, an extremist organization with a history of condoning violence, may have had over Canadian politics and, in turn, over the project.

Bofors Blowback To Rafale Reset: Has PM Modi Successfully Ended The Scam Veto On Defence Procurement? Or Is A New Political Narrative Simply Papering Over An Old Procurement Culture? In "RAW DISPATCH FROM MY DESK" i write that for decades, Indian defence procurement operated under an invisible constraint. And that was, in simple terms, the fear of scandal. The fear of middlemen being caught paying kickbacks on behalf of defence firms to sway government and military officials to swing lucrative defence contracts. In the 1980s, the Rs 64-crore Bofors scandal marked the Indian defence establishment’s descent into the mire of arms corruption and pockmarked the legacy of Rajiv Gandhi. Since then, from artillery to helicopters to submarines, allegations, proven or unproven, have cast such long shadows that decision-makers began preferring delay over decisiveness. Most of these cases erupted during the Congress-led UPA years. The result of this hesitancy manifested what many in uniform privately called a “default veto” on big-ticket acquisitions. After controversies such as the VVIP helicopter case involving AgustaWestland or procurement rows that led to prolonged investigations by the Central Bureau of Investigation, files slowed, and extensions multiplied. AK Antony, defence minister during the UPA years, openly admitted to this paralysis that threatened to blunt India’s military edge. Against that backdrop, the Modi government seems like a breath of fresh air. Instead of freezing procurement in anticipation of political backlash, the NDA under Narendra Modi has gone ahead, albeit by pursuing a different approach. It has cut out the middleman. Cut out procurement from the open market. It has adopted an institutional mechanism, preferring government-to-government procurement. This has ensured that military modernisation could not remain hostage to the fear of corrupt practices. Whether one agrees with the method, the uptick in strategic purchases suggests a system that seems to have finally broken the cycle of scandal-induced stagnation.

The so-called 'Mega' DSC was a carefully engineered policy sketch for a 'Mega' scam, a dark operation by CM Chandrababu and his son Nara Lokesh as Minister-in-charge, grievously damaging the lives of meritorious aspirants. Lakhs of aspirants are in anguish today, shedding tears because of the manipulation and deception by the N Chandrababu Naidu Government. Andhra Pradesh never witnessed such a disastrous recruitment process before. For the recruitment process for 16,000 DSC posts, every safeguard that protected transparency was dismantled, every institutional check was weakened, through a carefully laid out a scheme of fraud for purposes of converting the DSC recruitment into a money-spinning scam. Never before in the history of Andhra Pradesh has a recruitment process been marred by irregularities at such scale. DSC represents hopes and aspirations of lakhs of unemployed youth. Malpractices and corruption in the DSC recruitment process executed by the department, whose Minister-in-charge is Nara Lokesh, are extremely condemnable and the situation warrants a CBI inquiry. The corruption ridden DSC recruitment process is a multi layered scam and the following are the key aspects of it. 1. Chandrababu's government dismantled long-standing institutional safeguards. The entire conspiracy began with preparation of question papers (handled by SCERT) and the conduct of the examination (handled by the DSC Convenor). These responsibilities were traditionally separated to preserve confidentiality. This process was completely compromised when the separation of responsibilities was done away with. Chandrababu government sidelined the DSC Convenor and entrusted both crucial responsibilities to the Director of SCERT, thereby undermining the transparency of DSC examination and deliberately paving the way for irregularities. This arrangement created a convenient mechanism as the first step for the Mega Scam. 2. Making matters worse, the highly confidential tasks of question paper preparation and its upload were entrusted to outsourcing employees, creating a system vulnerable to abuse while conveniently providing potential scapegoats if design were to get exposed. The case of an outsourcing employee securing top rank in DSC in the very examination process he was associated with is a classic example of the consequences of the irregularity. This is direct proof of the paper leak scam. The sequence of events that follow generate further suspicion about the fragility of the system enabling paper leak and other irregularities. Why was that individual not provided the job despite him securing first rank? Why were the individual's ID and data removed from the merit list subsequently? Why wasn't he invited for the certificate verification? Are these not the reasons cited by that individual when he approached the Court? An outsourcing employee working in SCERT and intimately involved in question paper preparation, securing 1st rank, speaks volumes about the paper leak. For purposes of ascertaining the depth of the paper leak issue an inquiry by CBI is necessary. (supporting doc refer 1-5 slides in the attachment - extracts of candidate rankings, changes made to the merit list, Candidate's letter to the department and Court filing) 3. The total lack of transparency with respect to declaration of results is also absolutely worrisome, with merit lists and merit-cum-roster lists not being placed on the notice boards of collectors' offices, as was the prevailing practice. Instead, the process was centralized with only online display and messaging. This resulted in candidates facing significant hardship owing uncertainty, with them running from pillar to post with nobody to redresses their grievances, not at the district collector level and not at head office level.The cruelest aspect of the entire DSC examination is that, several candidates who received call letters on 1:1 basis and whose certificates were successfully verified, did not find their name in final selection list. Strict adherence to Rule 20 of Scheme of Selection Rules 2025 necessitated preparation of merit-cum-roster list after taking into consideration, marks, ranks, cutoff and all forms of reservations in place, be it vertical or horizontal, be it under meritorious sportspersons quota, be it under persons with benchmark disabilities quota, and so forth. Under the rule position, successful verification of certificates after this step must only result in the candidate's name being placed in final selection list, however, such has not been the fate of several call letter recipients. (Supporting doc refer 6-7 slides in the attachment - Rule 20 of Scheme of Selection Rules, 2025). 4. The most revealing aspect of the entire scandal is the manner in which the sports quota was dealt with. The shameless manner in which, the policies were altered to enable recklessness in the recruitment process is indeed very distressing. Injustice was done not only to meritorious candidates but also to genuine sportspersons who have worked hard for their achievements. Doing away with the existing policy mandating qualification in examination as provided in G.O. No. 74 dated 9th August, 2012, through a new sports policy introduced vide G.O. no. 8 dated 10th December, 2024 and bringing it into implementation through G.O. No. 4 and G.O. No. 47, Chandrababu and his son had already prepared what can only be described as a "policy blueprint for a scam." For the first time in history, sports quota candidates were exempted from appearing for the DSC examination, creating a backdoor entry through which they were brought into the system. Once the recruitment process was complete, the policy was reverted to what it was earlier, through G.O. No. 23, G.O. No. 25 and G.O. No. 56, thereby superseding G.O. No. 4 and G.O. No. 47, citing difficulties that have arisen and several representations and grievances received from sportspersons. So, once the purpose was served and the recruitment was completed without sportspersons having to appear in the written examination, the backdoor that enabled the system being compromised was shut and the Government also cold-heartedly admitted that the policy change caused difficulties and resulted in several grievances. (Supporting docs refer 8-13 slides in the attachment - extracts from G.O. No. 74 conveying original policy, G.O. No. 4 & 47 conveying modification, G.O. No. 23, 25 & 56 conveying policy reversal again after the recruitment is complete)To utter disgust of the entire State, a video of a negotiation for a teacher post between an aspirant and another person has come to light and thereafter, callously, the authorities merely registered a token case, granted station bail without even arresting the accused. No meaningful investigation was conducted. (Supporting evidence - video clip and extract from the FIR, wherein even after knowing the telephone number, the police avoid mentioning the name of the individual and merely refer to him as the suspect.) In the most insensitive and wholly unscrupulous manner, the TDP Government has made a mockery of the aspirations of lakhs of candidates. The scandal is deeply rooted and dangerously conceived by the people at the helm of the present State Government including the Chief Minister Mr. Chandrababu Naidu and the Education Minister, Nara Lokesh. The investigating agencies in the State report to the perpetrators and therefore, to unearth facts the need for an enquiry by an independent agency such as CBI is warranted. Details attached -

The whole Left ecosystem, starting with the Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge to Congress Chief Ministers across states, seem to have gotten into a frenzy and have become desperate to hide the truth that PM Sri Narendra Modi ji exposed in his tweets on #FakePromisesOfCongress. What Modi Ji has highlighted is a living reality in Karnataka - unsustainable freebie model has wreaked havoc on our State's developmental journey in the last 1.5 years, severely crippling the pace of our progress. What Mr. Kharge himself admits in the video that went viral proves this fact. Apart from his warning to not go overboard with promises, he says that there is no money to make roads. Some people seem to have missed this in translation but that's the indicative reality in Karnataka. That's the gist of what he was trying to say - that development has taken a backfoot in the state because of the unsustainable guarantees that the Congress party is trying to keep alive. It asserts the fact that Congress has fully realized the cost of its own guarantees on State's finances. Take CM Siddaramaiah's last budget for instance. To accommodate these freebies - although there is a budgetary provision made, he has achieved the provision by reducing budget in other key sectors. - The agricultural budget has been reduced by 38%. - The irrigation budget - crucial for many North Karnataka districts and in South Karnataka too - has been reduced by 17%. - The Capital Expenditure is down by 13%. - For Education, 11% budget is allocated while State Average is 14.7%. - Further, Congress budget has allocated merely 0.6% towards Urban Development, against other States average of 3.5%. - Inadequate fund have pushed Bangalore infra from bad to worse. - About Rs 13,000 crore of SC/ST funds have been redirected to fund the freebies. - Every MLA across all party lines is seen complaining about the lack of funds for local area development. - Govt stopped Rs 4000/- that was earlier added as State Contribution to PM Kisan Fund, directly impacting over 58 Lakh farmers. What's worse, while Govt hospitals do not have medicines at their pharmacy due to lack of funds, legacy institutions like KSRTC are being pushed to 100s of crores of losses. All done to keep the evidently unsustainable Guarantees alive. This shouldn't come as a surprise as it's not the first time that Congress itself has spoken about the ground reality in Karnataka. DCM DK Shivakumar, in the first six months of the Government taking over, had said there are no funds for development in Karnataka. CM's Financial Advisor Basavaraj Rayareddy had blamed the freebies for the lack of growth in the state. Mr. Kharge's statement is the most recent addition to such series of admissions by the Congress party. Anyway, it brings another opportunity to throw light on the mishaps that the Karnataka Govt is pursuing on the economic front. When BJP presented its last budget under CM Basavaraj S Bommai, it was a revenue surplus budget. But the latest budget under Siddaramaiah has a revenue deficit of over Rs 12,000 crore! And as always, Congress is taxing the middle class to bridge this gap in revenue. Congress Govt has gone on a spree to hike taxes on so many items that are essential for daily lives. In just 1 year or so, Karnataka has seen hikes in water bills, electricity bills, hike in transportation costs, property tax, stamp paper duty, hike in petrol and diesel, road tax on new vehicles, milk price, excise duty hike and the list goes on. To fund the Freebies, Congress is siphoning money off the common man's pocket. This is why we call this Govt as the #PickpocketSarkara. Claiming to give benefits, but looting the same people is a strategy that is bound to fail. People see through this, and identify this strategy very well. What Modi Ji has highlighted is how aware citizens are making informed choices like they made in Haryana. As much as Mr. Kharge, or DCM, or CM may try to hide PM's message with shrill rhetoric and name calling, his message to be vigilant from Congress fake promises reflects the ground reality in Karnataka.

What's worse, while Govt hospitals do not have medicines at their pharmacy due to lack of funds, legacy institutions like KSRTC are being pushed to 100s of crores of losses. All done to keep the evidently unsustainable Guarantees alive. This shouldn't come as a surprise as it's not the first time that Congress itself has spoken about the ground reality in Karnataka. DCM DK Shivakumar, in the first six months of the Government taking over, had said there are no funds for development in Karnataka. CM's Financial Advisor Basavaraj Rayareddy had blamed the freebies for the lack of growth in the state. Mr. Kharge's statement is the most recent addition to such series of admissions by the Congress party. Anyway, it brings another opportunity to throw light on the mishaps that the Karnataka Govt is pursuing on the economic front. When BJP presented its last budget under CM Basavaraj S Bommai, it was a revenue surplus budget. But the latest budget under Siddaramaiah has a revenue deficit of over Rs 12,000 crore! And as always, Congress is taxing the middle class to bridge this gap in revenue. Congress Govt has gone on a spree to hike taxes on so many items that are essential for daily lives. In just 1 year or so, Karnataka has seen hikes in water bills, electricity bills, hike in transportation costs, property tax, stamp paper duty, hike in petrol and diesel, road tax on new vehicles, milk price, excise duty hike and the list goes on. To fund the Freebies, Congress is siphoning money off the common man's pocket. This is why we call this Govt as the #PickpocketSarkara. Claiming to give benefits, but looting the same people is a strategy that is bound to fail. People see through this, and identify this strategy very well. What Modi Ji has highlighted is how aware citizens are making informed choices like they made in Haryana. As much as Mr. Kharge, or DCM, or CM may try to hide PM's message with shrill rhetoric and name calling, his message to be vigilant from Congress fake promises reflects the ground reality in Karnataka.

Today is the 72nd visit of Telangana CM Revanth Reddy to Delhi! As per sources, one of the top priorities is to escalate the SBI issue. What is the SBI issue? - In 2010, the then Congress government allotted land to State Bank of India (SBI) for Rs 13.33 crore to construct its corporate headquarters. - The 5.09-acre plot located at Survey No. 83/1, Raidurg was considered far off from the city. Now the city moved and the property is prime real estate now. - The Telangana Government TGIIC auctioned these five acres of land in Raidurg on May 28 bringing Rs.237 crore per acre. - SBI then filed two writ petitions for the government selling off their land. The High Court of Telangana pronounced a three week stay on the land and in fact came down heavily on the government for behaving like a “real estate agency”. - The SBI says it couldn’t construct its headquarters because - first the state bifurcation, then the SBI & SBH merger, and after that Covid stopped them from making any permanent plans. There is a branch of SBI at this location. - But without information, notice or even consulting the SBI, Revanth Reddy’s government auctioned off the land to Gowra Ventures. - Anyway! While the matter is still pending in the High Court, the government is trying to arm twist a public sector bank- The SBI! - Remember how CM Revanth Reddy threatened L&T Metro MD on national TV? Eventually L&T moved out of the Hyderabad Metro project. The government took their lands (may be with an intention to auction them). Metro Second phase is now in the air. Metro line is proposed to an empty Future City!! Basically, a massive ‘cluster-F’ is going on there. - Similar tactics are being used with the SBI. Telangana government started withdrawing their accounts from SBI. They are threatening to move the salary accounts too from SBI. How will this bloated-fragile-ego-trip have an impact on the banking sector in Telangana is a matter of concern, any sane person will think about. - BUT the Telangana CM doesn’t want to backdown and accept the mistake. - Despite their lunch hour gaffes and the collective hate people have for SBI, in this one instance SBI is in the right. Even if you are selling a leased property, you have to inform the tenants so that they make alternative arrangements. - Selling off a land to an other party, that was already sold to SBI feels more like a khabja & not a functional government. We see such real estate uncles across Hyderabad. This time that real estate khabja uncle is the government 🙏🏽 Will Revanth Reddy’s 72nd trip bring anything for Telangana public? Or will it help his ego…we have to see. Video: Revanth Reddy Threatening L&T in India Today Conclave.

🚨 Latest law allows Liberals to clear private property for their high-speed rail monstrosity🚆 The proposed 300+ km/h bullet train would link Toronto to Quebec City along a dedicated corridor with five mandated stops along the way. Bill C-15 received royal assent after moving swiftly through the Liberal-packed Senate last week. Marketed as an omnibus budget bill, the legislation quietly embeds the High-Speed Rail Network Act within it, effectively handing the federal government sweeping new tools to fast-track the ALTO high-speed rail project. The proposed 300+ km/h bullet train would link Toronto to Quebec City along a dedicated corridor with five mandated stops along the way. A public-private partnership led by the CADENCE consortium, which includes AtkinsRéalis (formerly SNC-Lavalin), now holds special fast-track authority to acquire land. The route carves a straight, 60-metre-wide (more than 200 feet) fenced corridor through prime farmland, rural homes, wetlands and ecologically sensitive areas across southern Ontario and Quebec. And Bill C-15 has just rewritten the rules, declaring the project “for the general advantage of Canada,” securing federal jurisdiction and bypassing standard processes under the Canada Transportation Act. It streamlines the Impact Assessment Act and, most significantly, amends the federal Expropriation Act specifically for ALTO. If the Minister of Transport determines land is required, the Crown is automatically deemed to need it for a “public work.” There is no mandatory prior negotiation. Landowners receive abbreviated notice and a short 30-day window to file written objections, with no public hearings and many longstanding appeal rights stripped away or diluted. Farmers whose fields are bisected, drainage systems destroyed, and operations fractured will face a process that treats private property as an inconvenience to industry, rather than a right. Preliminary cost estimates already range from $60 billion to $90 billion, yet no finalized business case or detailed engineering has been made public. If history is any indication, a mega-project like this will be unlikely to stay on budget. Proponents promise halved travel times and economic gains, but those benefits must not come at the expense of due process and property rights. This is not the first time Ottawa has used legislation to seize land from rural Canadians. In 1969, the federal government expropriated roughly 39,000 hectares for Mirabel International Airport in Quebec, displacing thousands of families. The project delivered massive social and environmental disruption but was ultimately underused; much of the land was later sold back to families, yet the damage was already done. Closer to home, the case of Frank Meyers of Quinte West, Ontario, stands as a stark warning. A fifth-generation farmer whose family had worked the land since 1798, Meyers lost 220 acres in 2012 when the government expropriated it for an alleged expansion of Canadian Forces Base Trenton. He rejected the $1.6 million offer, returned the cheques unopened and fought the process every step of the way. In 2014, while he was away, his farmhouse and barns were demolished. Years later, the promised military relocation never materialized. The land sat idle — a “dead zone” of former productive farmland — until reports surfaced in 2023 that it would become an ammunition depot, far from the original justification. Seize private land first and argue value later, rewriting rules whenever a shiny new flagship project demands it, isn’t governance, it’s power without restraint. Rural Canadians warned this line would be crossed, and Bill C-15 doesn’t just prove them right, it proves the warnings were ignored. Tamara Ugolini 🇨🇦

🚨 IAS Officer Sanjeev Jaiswal Faces ED Probe in Covid Jumbo Centres Scam (2023) & now 37 Residents File 5-Page Police Complaint Against MHADA VP & CEO Sanjeev Jaiswal at Goregaon Police Station. April 2026.has he said "ghuskhor" to protesters. 📢📢📢 In June 2023, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted searches at multiple locations, including the residence of senior IAS officer Sanjeev Jaiswal, in connection with an alleged money laundering case linked to irregularities in BMC’s Covid-19 field hospital and jumbo centre contracts. During the raids, the ED recovered property documents and fixed deposits. Jaiswal and his wife were reported to own 24 properties (including a half-acre plot at Madh Island and multiple flats) collectively valued at around Rs 34 crore, along with Rs 15 crore in fixed deposits. Jaiswal stated that most of these assets were gifted to his wife by her father (a retired senior IRS officer) and other family members. Lookout Notice: IAS Officer Stopped from Flying to Sri Lanka On July 14, 2023, Sanjeev Jaiswal (then Additional Commissioner in BMC and later MHADA CEO) was deplaned at Mumbai airport along with his wife while attempting to fly to Colombo, Sri Lanka. The ED had issued a Look Out Circular (LOC) against him due to the ongoing probe. Jaiswal claimed he had obtained prior permission from the state government for the personal trip, but was not allowed to board on the basis of the LOC. ED Summons and Questioning Jaiswal appeared before the ED in late June and early July 2023 and was questioned for nearly 10 hours in the money laundering case related to Covid centre contracts awarded during the pandemic. The probe focused on alleged irregularities in contracts given to private operators for running jumbo Covid centres by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), where Jaiswal served as Additional Municipal Commissioner when the pandemic broke out. Current Controversy: Residents’ Police Complaint Against MHADA CEO (April 2026) On April 17, 2026, during a public meeting at Ganesh Maidan in Motilal Nagar (Goregaon West) to unveil the master plan for one of Mumbai’s largest redevelopment projects (involving the Adani Group under MHADA), Sanjeev Jaiswal, now Vice President and CEO of MHADA, faced protests from residents. When some attendees raised demands for larger rehabilitation homes (2,400 sq ft instead of the announced 1,600 sq ft carpet area), the situation turned heated. Jaiswal allegedly lost his cool, referred to a protester as “ghuskhor” (bribe-taker/illegal occupant) and asked police to verify the man’s identity documents. 37 Residents File 5-Page Complaint at Goregaon Police Station Following the incident, 37 tenants from Motilal Nagar submitted a detailed 5-page written complaint at Goregaon Police Station. The complaint, signed by the residents, demands legal action against the MHADA CEO for alleged threatening behaviour, creating tension, and lack of respectful conduct during the redevelopment discussion. Motilal Nagar is home to approximately 3,702 tenement holders and around 1,600 slum dwellers. Residents are seeking greater transparency, better rehabilitation terms, and protection of their rights in this massive redevelopment project. This forms the complete background connecting the 2023 ED probe with the recent April 2026 redevelopment controversy.
