After facing shocking defeat in the MLC elections, which included losing the seat in his bastion Kadapa district, opposition party leader YS Jagan spoke to media in Vjayawada. Jagan dubbed the stunning victory of TDP as unethical.

‘Chandrababu, who tried to buy MLAs in Telangana, is continuing his devious politics in AP too. They have lured, bribed and even threatened the voters and despite all this, barely managed to win with the help of cross voting,’ Jagan allegedly said.

He called the victory of TDP unethical and immoral. ‘People know how Chandrababu used his malicious tactics to win this election. They will surely teach him a lesson in 2019,’ he added.

Earlier, TDP candidate B-Tech Ravi won the MLC Election in Kadapa, which had been the stronghold of YSR family for the past 6 decades, defeating YSRCP candidate and Jagan’s uncle YS Vivekananda Reddy with a margin of 33 votes.

While the YCP leaders accused TDP of resorting to ‘Cross Voting’, the TDP leaders said that they effectively stopped the ‘Cross Voting’ ploy of YCP by introducing Bar Coding in the elections.

Ever since Yogi Adityanath’s anointment as the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh by BJP, India’s largest state and one of the most important states, the decision has left many shocked and invited various debates cutting across parties.

His controversial background, his inexperience (he hasn’t held any administrative post so far) and little information about his childhood are being spotted by the Opposition parties.

Born as Ajay Singh Bisht on 5 June 1972, very little is known about Adityanath’s childhood. Born into a Rajput family in Panchur, a village in Garhwal region of Uttarakhand, he is a graduate in science from Garhwal University at Srinagar, Uttarakhand. He had cut ties with his family at the age of 21 to become a disciple of Avaidyanath, the head priest of Gorakhnath Temple.

At Gorakhnath Temple, Adityanath became the favourite disciple of his mentor Avaidyanath and followed in the long tradition of the temple that produced the members of State Assembly and Parliament. Both Avaidyanath and his predecessor Digvijaynath were elected to the Lok Sabha as member of the Hindu Mahasabha, a Hindu outfit. Avaidyanath later joined the BJP.

Adityanath turned the manager of the election campaign for his mentor Avaidyanath. Subsequently, Adityanath stepped into public life and in the 1998 general elections, he became the youngest MP from Gorakhpur at the age of 26. He has won all four general elections since then. And there was no looking back for him since then.

Adityanath is unmarried and the head priest of Gorakhnath Temple in Gorakhpur. The members of the Gorakhnath Math, situated near the Gorakhnath Temple, played an important role in the movement to build a Ram Mandir in place of the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya.

As he rose in politics, Adityanath started to enjoy good relations with former Uttar Pradesh chief minister and current Union home minister Rajnath Singh, one of the senior most BJP leaders from Uttar Pradesh. Adityanath is also close to members of the RSS, the ideological parent of the BJP.

The appointment of Adiytanath as the UP CM is seen as a test for himself. Since he has never held any administrative post and it is a challenge for him to reinvent himself from being a religious leader to a parliamentarian and now play a role of an able administrator. With the BJP having pledged development, good governance and improvement in law and order in the Uttar Pradesh assembly elections, the biggest challenge for Adityanath will be to try and meet the aspirations of voters by creating job opportunities for the youth, as well as infrastructure development.

Call it the effect of United States President Donald Trump or new visa bill proposed by US Congress, the bad impact is clearly looming large over Indian IT industry.

Bowing to the new regulations for H1-B visa, India’s tech giant Infosys has decided not to apply any sort of work visas for junior employees who possess less than 4 years of experience – I.e particularly of level-3 (Systems Engineer and Senior Systems Engineer). Rather, they would look to deploy new staff for onsite jobs or get H1-B for senior employees.

Other worrying factor which led to this development is huge raise in minimum wage for H1-B visa holder – I.e USD130,000. Other players like TCS, Accenture, Wipro, Capgemini et al would now work on bringing up some prerequisites for H1-B visa within the company.

Not just Infosys, every other domestic company in India is suffering this massive crisis now. If similar conditions persist for longer time, there is a chance that most of the companies would lay off 2-3percent of workforce.

On other hand, leading IT firm Cognizant is expected to fire around 6000 employees as part of this year’s appraisal.

Arogya Raksha policy was launched by Chandrababu at Muppalla in Guntur district. The scheme envisages to help those in need of medical assistance.

About this, Chandrababu said that Mupalla has been completely covered under the scheme. A sum of Rs. 1,000 crore is being spent on it, he said. The premium is just Rs. 100 per family for the poor and Rs. 1,200 for higher classes.

Jana Reddy is one of the seniormost leaders in Telangana and he is the CLP leader in the Assembly. Normally there will be off spinners, leg spinners in cricket, but there is a full spinner in Jana Reddy and he questions TRS Government in the Assembly, by feeling that they are unplayable bouncers. But, Jana Reddy doing it knowingly or unknowingly, but surely these bouncers are turning as sweet laddus to CM KCR. Because, Jana Reddy questions in Assembly are giving another opportunity for TRS Government to explain their programmes once again to the public.

Telangana is No. 1 in solar power generating, with over 1,400 mw, said minister Jagadish Reddy. About this, he said that Rajasthan had been No.1 until recently, with 1,300 mw production. By this year end, Telangana will reach 2,000 mw production of solar power, he added. Daily a plant is coming up in some place or the other in the state, he said. While in other states, the government bears all the expenses of setting up a plant and production, in Telangana, private parties are doing it, he said.
