BJP MLAs during sit-in protest by BJP near 
collectorate for release of OBC scholarship. 

Hundreds of college students under the banner of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday launched sit-in protest in front of Collector office, demanding disbursement of scholarship amount of OBC, VJ/NT and EBC students. The protest named as ‘Thiyya Andolan’ will continue round the clock.

The protest was launched on Tuesday afternoon in presence of BJP state general Secretary and MLA Devendra Fadanvis and MLA Nana Patole. Mayor Anil Sole, Former MP Banwarilal Purohit, MLAs Sudhakar Deshmukh, Krishna Khopde, Vikas Kumbhare were prominently present on the dais. Addressing students MLA Fadanvis lashed at the state government for not disbursing scholarship to OBC and VJ/NT students.

Many OBC and VJ/NT students have been forced to quit the course by the private college authorities after scholarship amount was not disbursed by the government during last two academic sessions. Total Rs 1,400 crore are yet to disbursed to students, Fadanvis added. Scholarship is our right and government is trying to terminate our right, he claimed.
Fadanvis alleged that the ministers say that centre has not released the funds and hence they are not providing the same to the students. This happened with other States as well but, other States paid from their own kitty and then claimed reimbursement, Fadanvis added.

Nana Patole said that education is our right and scholarship is basic need for OBC and VJNT. Non Creamy Layer has been created by the government to disturb peace between SC, ST, OBC and VJNT. Patole demanded for increase in income limit of non creamy layer level upto Rs 7 lakh and informed that agitation on same lines will continue at Bhandara, Gondia and Gandhichori. Government is befooling us by passing buck to Centre, Patole alleged.

MLA Sudhakar Deshmukh said we want our basic right and not against anyone. Government should give promotion to OBC in government sector, Deshmukh demanded. MLA Chandrashekhar Bawankule, Krishna Khopde, Vikas Kumbhare and Mayor Anil Sole urged OBC and VJNT students, who are facing problems due to lack of disbursement of scholarship, to participate in the agitation.

Deputy Mayor Sandip Jadhav, former Mayor Archana Dehankar, Pravin Datke, BJYM President Bunty Kukde, Deven Dasture, Chhotu Bhoyar, Pramod Pendke, Prabhakar Yewle, Shivani Dani and others were present on the dais. The protest will continue on Wednesday.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

By
IGP Mallikarjuna Prasanna By Dheeraj Fartode  Published on Feb/17/2019 NOT many are aware of an episode during the then US President Barack Obama’s visit to India in 2010. The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script als...
