"Arrogance": Rahul Gandhi Spells Out Reason For Congress Debacle In 2014




Answering a question after his address at the International Institute of Strategic 

Studies here, Mr Gandhi said: "You have to listen - the leadership is all about learning".

Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Friday said the party learnt a lesson from the debacle in the 2014 general elections, admitting that "a certain degree of arrogance" had crept into it after 10 years of power.
Answering a question after his address at the International Institute of Strategic Studies here, Mr Gandhi said: "You have to listen - the leadership is all about learning".
"A certain degree of arrogance had crept into Congress after 10 years of power and we have learnt a lesson," Mr Gandhi said when asked what was the lesson his party learnt from the 2014 election debacle.
Noting that India can punch above its weight only by creating jobs, Mr Gandhi said India has a "job crisis".
He said that while China produces 50,000 jobs every 24 hours, India produces 450 jobs during the same period.
"How can India punch above its weight when you ignore fundamentals. You do not support your agriculture sector.
"If you look at India's success, it is achieved when there is decentralisation. Best rulers in 
India and most successful rulers in India decentralised power," Mr Gandhi said.
For the last 70 years, it is through decentralisation India achieved success and cited examples of Green Revolution, White Revolution and Telecom Revolution, he said.
"When India opens up, India's power surges. But during the last four years (of the Modi government) there is a massive centralisation of power," Mr Gandhi claimed.
The Congress president said: "broadly India has been in transition for the last 70 years - a rural country, a country locked in its villages has transformed using democratic principles".
Noting that India has succeeded in a decent measure, he said "our transformation has been through non-violent, peaceful manner ensuring that the benefits of these transformation will go to all Indians, all communities - nobody will be left out".
Mr Gandhi said that the governments till 2014 believed in supporting the farmers and other weaker sections of the society. They were helped through farm loan waivers, guaranteed work programme, right to food programme and right to information.
"These were all structured, designed to help people, ease people of the pain of transformation," he added.
COMMENT
The Congress lost the 2014 general elections to the Bharatiya Janata Party after 10 years in power. The Congress won 44 seats as compared to the BJP's 282 in Lok Sabha, Parliament's lower house.

Donald Trump Accuses Social Media Firms Of "Censorship"

Trump also criticized social media outlets last week, saying without providing proof that

 unidentified companies were "totally discriminating against Republican/Conservative 

voices."

U.S. President Donald Trump accused social media companies on Friday of silencing "millions of people" in an act of censorship, but without offering evidence to support the claim.
"Social Media Giants are silencing millions of people. Can't do this even if it means we must continue to hear Fake News like CNN, whose ratings have suffered gravely. People have to figure out what is real, and what is not, without censorship!" Trump wrote on Twitter, not mentioning any specific companies.
Trump also criticized social media outlets last week, saying without providing proof that unidentified companies were "totally discriminating against Republican/Conservative voices."
Those tweets followed actions taken by Apple Inc, Alphabet Inc's YouTube and Facebook Inc to remove some content posted by Infowars, a website run by conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. Jones' own Twitter account was temporarily suspended on Aug. 15.
In an interview with Reuters on Monday, Trump said it was "very dangerous" for social media companies like Twitter Inc and Facebook to silence voices on their services.
Trump's comments also come as the social media industry faces mounting scrutiny from 
Congress over the policing of foreign propaganda.
On Tuesday, Facebook, Twitter Inc and Alphabet removed hundreds of accounts tied to an alleged Iranian propaganda operation, while Facebook took down a second campaign it said was linked to Russia.
U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded that Russia tried to influence the 2016 presidential election by hacking and other actions, including using social media in an influence campaign.
When asked by Reuters about Trump's allegations of censorship, Twitter pointed to the three hours of sworn testimony that its head of public policy strategy, Nick Pickles, recently gave to a House of Representatives committee. He said claims that Twitter is banning conservative voices are unfounded and false and that it works to define and act upon "bad conduct, not a specific type of speech."
Representatives for Facebook declined to comment. 

Government Changed Rafale Contract To Benefit Industrialist: Rahul Gandhi


Rahul Gandhi spoke of alleged corruption in the Rafale deal, accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of favouring a businessman who had no experience in manufacturing aircraft

Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Friday raked up the multi-billion Rafale deal in the UK, accusing the BJPgovernment of changing the contract to benefit an industrialist who was in debt.
In an interaction with the National Indian Students and Alumni Union (UK) at the London School of Economics, Mr Gandhi spoke of alleged corruption in the Rafale deal, accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of favouring a businessman who had no experience in manufacturing aircraft.
Mr Gandhi has been attacking the BJP government for allegedly inking the deal at a much higher price than the one the previous UPA regime had negotiated to benefit "one businessman".
Facing allegations of getting undue benefits from the multi-billion dollar Rafale deal, Anil Ambani-led Reliance Group has sent legal notices to several Congress leaders asking them to "cease and desist" from levelling such charges.
Mr Gandhi, in response to a question on tackling corruption during an 'In Conversation' event at the famous London university, said: "Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) has been building aircraft for 70 years. It has built the Sukhoi, Hawk... whole set of planes. HAL has no debt. HAL has by far the best experience in building aircraft in 70 years".
Questioning the government's fighter jet deal struck with French giant Dassault Rafale, the Congress president said he found it "absolutely amazing" that the media in India had not picked up on highlighting how Mr Ambani was "magically" given the contract for 36 fighter jets soon after PM Modi's visit to France.
"Our government signed a contract with Dassault, and gave the contract to HAL. The price we were paying was approximately 520 crores a plane.
"Then something happened, Prime Minister Modi went to France, changed the contract from 126 planes to 36 planes, changed the pricing structure from 520 crores to 1,600 crores and magically, Mr Anil Ambani was given the contract," Mr Gandhi said.
The Congress president alleged that "Mr Anil Ambani is Rs. 45,000 crore in debt".
"Mr Anil Ambani has never made a plane in his life, and the company that got the contract, one of the biggest defence contracts in the world, was formed one week before the contract was signed, luckily this is absolutely amazing. So that's the interesting question about 
corruption," Mr Gandhi said.
Reliance Group has denied the allegations relating to the deal under which France's Dassault is supplying the fighter jets and has entered into a joint venture with an Anil Ambani-led group firm to meet its offset requirement of the contract.
Mr Ambani recently wrote to Mr Gandhi on the deal saying his party has been "misinformed, misdirected and misled" by "malicious vested interests and corporate rivals" on the issue.
The issue of corruption was among a range of topics covered by Mr Gandhi during his question and answer session with students from the LSE and other British universities, including Brunel and King's College London, organised by the National Indian Students and Alumni Union (NISAU) UK to launch its 'Perspective India Townhall'.
On the issue of his association with dynastic politics as the grandson of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and son of Former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, he said: "I come from a certain family but I am an elected person; I have been democratically elected. So the term dynasty is not precise.
"I am actually elected and the important thing is I operate in a democracy and take the punches and have learnt a lot from my experiences over the years".
Calling on youngsters to join politics, he stressed that the Congress was determined to defend the "onslaught on the Indian Constitution" and "remove the BJP from power".
"We are constructing a manifesto in the Congress that brings in all ideas, stakeholders, farmers and allies and potentially have a structure with which to go to the people," Mr Gandhi said in reference to the 2019 general election, adding that his party would not be making any alliances with anybody not "ideologically on our platform".
The Congress president described the essence of the Congress party as its ideology of non-violence and one that feels deeply for the people in the country who are weaker.
"I have been through a certain degree of violence up close. I have seen family members killed and borne the brunt of massive attacks on myself and learnt a lot from that. Ultimately, I love my country," he said, when asked about his leadership credentials.
Asked if the Partition of India in 1947 was the right move, given the "attacks on minorities" in India, he was defiant in the message that India has more Muslim people than Pakistan.
"We are a more democratic and open country, which embraces its people. The negotiation that India has been able to carry with its people, I am very proud of.
"However, over the last four years, an attack is taking place on Indian institutions but the original idea of India is going to win - 100 per cent without a doubt," Mr Gandhi said.

Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma All Smiles After Meeting "Beautiful Boy"


After his match-winning exploits at Trent Bridge, Virat Kohli seems to be enjoying some downtime with wife Anushka Sharma.

India cricket captain Virat Kohli brought the Indian cricket team back from the dead in the ongoing five-match Test series against hosts England. The stylish right-hander scored 97 in the first innings and followed it up with a gritty 103 as Indian batsmen finally thwarted the English pace attack to set up a massive 203-run win in the 3rd Test at Trent Bridge. Following his match-winning exploits, Kohli enjoyed some downtime with wife Anushka Sharma, who was seen cheering him on from the stands during the 3rd Test. Kohli took to Twitter and shared a picture of him and Anushka sporting a big smile after their meeting with "beautiful boy".
Anushka has been a constant presence in India's tour of England. She has been spotted multiple times in the stands, supporting her husband and the Indian team.
In Trent Bridge, after reaching his century, Kohli celebrated the milestone by blowing a kiss towards the Bollywood star. Anushka was also seen applauding her husband's feat in the stands and blowing flying kisses towards him.
With 23 centuries under his belt, Kohli now has equalled Virender Sehwag (India), Kevin Pietersen (England), Justin Langer (Australia), Steve Smith (Australia) and Javed Miandad (Pakistan), who have 23 centuries each to their names.
Kohli, who made his Test debut in 2011 against the West Indies in Kingston, has played 68 Tests so far and has 5994 runs under his belt at an average of 54.49.
The Indian captain has been magnificent form in the ongoing Test series. He scored 149 and 51 in the opening Test against England at the Edgbaston cricket ground.
Kohli, who was declared the Player of the Match, accumulated 937 rating points, a career-best for him, to become the current No.1 Test batsman in the world according to the latest ICC Rankings.
Two weeks ago, Kohli had claimed the numero uno spot for the first time in his career, after he scored a hard-fought 149 in a losing cause at Edgbaston. However, after registering scores of 23 and 17 in the second Test at Lord's, Kohli ended up conceding the top spot to banned former Australian skipper Steve Smith.
The Nottingham Test was a personal triumph for Kohli as he also became the first captain to score 200 or more runs in a winning cause seven times leaving behind Australian greats Bradman and Ponting, who had achieved the feat six times each.
India trail 1-2 in the five-match series with the fourth Test scheduled to begin on August 30 at The Rose Bowl, Southampton.

Falling rupee will affect the common man?


Whenever the rupee weakens, it tweeted on Twitter that the price of one dollar would be 40 rupees after Modi became Prime Minister, that is, the rupee would get stronger. On what basis they were saying, they can tell if they say something on it.
Against the dollar, the politics of rupee revolves around again in 2013-14 when the value of the rupee was used to deny the Prime Minister of India, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. If you look at the tweets of the then Prime Minister Modi or listen to the speeches, you would have liked the falling prices of rupees to India's declining self respect. From leaders of the opposition, Ravi Shankar and Ramdev also used to say that if Modi becomes the Prime Minister then the rupee will be stronger than the dollar. Whenever the rupee weakens, it tweeted on Twitter that the price of one dollar would be 40 rupees after Modi became Prime Minister, that is, the rupee would get stronger. On what basis they were saying, they can tell if they say something on it. Today India's rupee has become so weak as compared to the dollar that it had never happened. For the first time, a dollar has risen to 70 rupees.
Then as a prime minister's candidate, Modi used to say that the government of Delhi is not responding. Now the opposition is saying that the government of Delhi is not responding. Prime Minister Modi made serious allegations as leader of the opposition and said that the country wants to know. Does the country no longer want to know why India's rupee was faltered in front of the dollar on the eve of August 15. Is it not just economic reasons, its political reasons too. Hearing the old statement of the Prime Minister whom he had given seriously seems strange. From June 2013 till he becomes the Prime Minister, how many times he must have been charged seriously, at least once to say that while being prime minister, especially on August 14, India's rupee fell so much against the dollar as on August 14. Never had history dropped.

The politics of rupee starts from 2013 Such statements began to appear that when the country was free then there was a rupee equal to one dollar. Then the rupee began to weaken. People also felt that this is a very big fraud. As Chief Minister of Gujarat Narendra Modi and the big leaders of BJP started making this issue.
Meanwhile, the rupee becomes weak at the record level on August 28, 2013. That day the cost of a dollar was 68 rupees. In November 2014 a dollar costs Rs 62. On January 27, 2016, a dollar becomes 68 rupees. The price which was on August 28, 2013, is on 27 January 2016. When crude prices were on the rise in June-July this year, it was said that by the end of this year, India's rupee weakened to 70 rupees from the dollar. On the eve of August 15, this historic decline of the rupee is related to Swabhimaan of the country or not, it can only tell better who have been doing politics by doing this. The government should, however, tell it so that it is clear in the public that the reasons behind falling rupee can be anything else.

We checked the charge of Finance Minister Piyush Goyal's Twitter handle. At three o'clock tweeted that we are proud that our respect is growing in the world under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The results are telling itself because we are rapidly moving towards the world's greatest economy. His tweet is on the Clean Rail Swachh Bharat campaign. We bring Ayushman Bharat scheme for health, farmers pay a price of one and a half times. If Piyush Goyal was in the Opposition, what would you have been tweeting, how was it going from August 15? It is the only one left in India's politics to decide who will do when or who will say this pattern has been fixed. Well, the finance minister in charge would also have a tweet regarding the weakness of the rupee so that people would understand why this is all. Especially when the rupee weakened four years ago was his favorite issue.
Does the Government have a role in rupee weakness? No. Then why does the government not say this to itself? This reply can only be given by the government, but you can gas down why the government does not say that the rupee has not weakened due to its reasons. Because as soon as he says this, people will ask how he used to say that rupee was getting weak due to the policies of the UPA government. We have asked Pranjay Guha Thakarta whether they can tell the reasons for which the rupee is weak.

There is no roll of government. Reserve Bank of India. If he wants to sell the dollar, increase its supply in the market and stop rupee from falling. The rupee depreciates against the dollar and the impact of petrol diesel costs most. Prices of petrol start increasing. Also, import of things from outside starts to be expensive. If the rupee weakens, the foreign investor will get less returns. However, the government has crossed the rupee's politics. Opposition has embraced it. By the way, BJP spokesman Nalin Kohli has said what he has said. They have said that those who read the newspaper know that why is this happening all this.

India's Economic Affairs Secretary Subhash Chandra Garg has told Reuters that there is no need to worry about it because the decline in rupee is coming from the external factor. Currency of other economies is also getting weak. Trying to stop the fall by selling the reserve bank's dollars at this level will not be of particular benefit. Even if the rupee falls on the 80's also it will not be a matter of concern. The second currency continued to weaken.
Where was the country where the country's self-interest was in danger when it was 68 rupees, today the Secretary of Economic Affairs says that even if a dollar will be worth 80 rupees, it is not a matter of concern that the currency of other countries will continue to weaken. . Either the argument has changed, or the real time has changed. So what will be 80 rupees? Before 2013, only the Indian Rupee was falling, the currency of other countries was not falling. That was exactly what happened at the time. According to an article in Live Mint, at this time, besides the Indian rupee, the highest level of lira in Turkey has been recorded. This year, the value of the lira has reduced by 45 percent. For this reason, the euro's prices have also weakened against the dollar. New Zealand's dollar is also the most broken in two years. The South African dollar also fell 8 percent. Argentine pesos dropped so much that banks raised interest rates by 5 percent.

When the currencies of other countries are weak then India's rupee is weak. Is there any such connection? Even in 2013, when the Indian rupee was weakening, the lira of Turkey was also becoming weak. This does not mean that there is no relation between the two. There are many other reasons in the middle too. The currencies of other countries are affected, but many times the Indian rupee is weak even when the currencies of other countries are getting stronger. Was watching an article on December 17, 2014 on the live mint Then the Indian rupee was at the lowest level of 13 months. Compared to the dollar. South Korea's currency giant was getting stronger at that time. Japana's Yen also strengthened 1.17 percent. The Singapore dollar, the Malaysian ringout was also strong.
In 2011, because of the crisis of the European Union, currencies were falling apart, due to the financial crisis in Greece in 2012, there was an impact on currencies around the world. On August 28, 2013 when India's rupee reached 68 against a dollar, there was also a major reason for the tarpaulin tantrum. To save America's economy, the Federal Reserve raised the dollar amount and said that now Federer will not buy reserve bonds. Its impact was on markets and currency throughout the world. This is called taper tantrum. If the price of crude oil increases in the world market then the currency starts weakening. This time the turkey has declined due to this. Just have to choose politics when he has to run these shops by shifting these arguments. To lie is. You know that business warfare between the United States and China is currently underway. On the day the two countries increase the tax on each other's imports.

At present, the US economy is in a strong position, due to this, the worldwide flow of the dollar is going on toward the United States. American investors are putting out money from other markets and putting them in their market. Taking advantage of this strength, Trump has opened a front against China. China is also increasing the import duty on imported items from the United States. It is also affecting other countries. The United States is simultaneously fighting against many countries including China, Iran, Turkey, India. India has also raised import duty on many US items. An angle America and Turkey are clashing together. The United States has increased the import duty of steel and aluminum from Turkey to 50 percent from 20 percent. This will happen that the demand for steel in Turkey will be reduced. Angry by this, Turkey's President Erdogan has said that his country will boycott American electronics. Looking at their stand, speculation is being made whether they will do this or just say at the level of threat. Erdogan has said that whatever we call from the United States will make us better in our country. If they have a phone call then Samsung is also there. Venus is in our country. These are the brands of all phones. It is not clear whether ergoding will give it a formal form or it is only limited to the threat. In this trade war, turkey lira became weak 25% last month.
In 2016 cyber hackers hacked the central bank of Bangladesh and got $ 101 million. Of this 20 million dollars went to the hackers in Sri Lanka, which was recovered. 81 million dollars went to the Philippines, out of which $ 18 million was recovered. There is no further information about this but I am telling this because such an attempt has been made in India too. Hackers have earmarked 94 crores from a cooperative bank in Pune.

Our colleague Sunil Singh has sent a report that money has been withdrawn in 29 countries including Debit Card in India. There was no such big cyber robbery in India before. On 11th August, the bank switched the system, and in 7 hours, transactions were done in 28 countries in 12 thousand times and 78 crores were withdrawn. Within India, transactions were done 2849 times and two and a half million were withdrawn. Then on August 13, 14 million and blown away. CASMAS Bank has shut down its payment system for two days but has given a relief to the customers that their money is safe. Do not worry. The bank has filed an FIR.

Will India-Pakistan relations improve in the new era?



Qureshi claimed that in this congratulatory letter on August 18, PM Modi referred to starting a dialogue with Pakistan.
After assuming the command of Imran Khan's Pakistan, the initiative on India-Pakistan relations started in the wrong way. In fact, Prime Minister Narendra Modi wrote a letter to congratulate Imran Khan on becoming Prime Minister. But there was a dispute about the statement of Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi about this. Qureshi claimed that in this congratulatory letter on August 18, PM Modi referred to starting a dialogue with Pakistan.

But according to Indian sources, PM Modi's letter does not mention the start of talks. According to sources, this letter was written on August 18. In this, Imran Khan has been congratulated on becoming Pakistan's Prime Minister. According to sources, PM Modi said that easy transfer of power would strengthen Pakistan. He wrote that people's confidence in Pakistan's democracy would increase. In the letter, the conversation between the two leaders on the telephone was mentioned. PM wrote that Indian subcontinent is free of terror and violence so that development can be addressed. He wrote that India wants to have good relations with its neighbors and there should be a creative and meaningful approach to the well-being of the people.

Obviously there is no mention of starting a conversation in the letter. On the dispute, the Pakistan Foreign Ministry came clean and the media was told to be responsible. Sources said that the Foreign Minister of Pakistan has never said that the Indian PM has offered talks. They said that to move beyond the creative point of view. Pakistan is also saying the same thing. Pakistan's eyes are on constant communication with India. There should be constant dialogue for resolving all issues. Trying to spoil the atmosphere is not responsible journalism.
Meanwhile, sources from the Ministry of External Affairs have made India's stand clear over talks with Pakistan. He said terrorism and negotiations can not go together. India would like to see how the new government works in this direction.

On the other hand, another controversy is also to get the necklace of Pakistani Army chief at the oath taking ceremony of Imran Khan, minister of Navjot Singh Sidhu in the Congress government in Punjab. Chief Minister Amarinder Singh has expressed his displeasure on Sidhu's attitude. He had said that it is not okay to meet the army chief responsible for the killing of Indian soldiers. He said that "Our soldiers are being martyred everyday, in such a situation, I do not believe in getting a necklace with the army chief." My own regiment lost a Major and two soldiers a few months ago. Anyone who shoots or orders to fire, Pakistan's army chief is responsible for this. "

But Sidhu probably did not like this tired version of Amarinder He said that when he will answer all he will answer and give them the hinges. And the Congress of two of its veteran leaders said that the Congress is currently trying to intervene. The Congress is also targeting the BJP. It is clear that when mention of Pakistan, the biggest thing is trust. But at the moment, the lack of confidence is clearly visible.

Is the BJP really on the slope?


If compared with 2014, then these surveys do not give a good gesture to the BJP. However, the relief for BJP is still a relief that the Congress does not seem to face a tough challenge.
If Lok Sabha elections are held on time, then only eight months left. Where do you go now people will find asking what will happen in 2019? At Pan shops, on the tea halls, in the crowd, in the market, there is a round of political discussions. Will Modi return? Or will Rahul's fortunes rise? Or will there be any PM from Mayawati or Mamta Banerjee? Answers to such questions are obviously only results. But Opinion Polls from different channels have started to point to the future picture of 2019. The general opinion in the survey of these channels is that if the elections are held today, then NDA leader Narendra Modi will return. But the possibility of huge loss to the BJP is being expressed. On the other hand, there is talk of growing the seats of Congress, but it does not seem to be reaching this condition which prevents the BJP.

According to the INDIA TODAY Mood of Nation Survey, the BJP is not going to get a majority this time as the last time. BJP may have to be satisfied with 245 seats in comparison to 282 seats. Congress can get 83 seats In the survey, the NDA has a clear majority with 281 seats, while the UPA is far behind with 122 seats. There is a possibility of 140 seats in the other account. According to this survey, NDA can get 36%, UPA gets 31% and others get 33% votes.

According to Times Now survey, BJP can win 227 seats and Congress 78 seats. While survey of ABP CSDS conducted on the completion of four years of Modi government, it has been said that NDA 274 and UPA can win 164 seats.

So these three surveys conducted at different times are indicating a decrease in the ground power of the BJP. But according to INDIA TODAY, the popularity of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is still intact and he is considered to be the best Prime Minister of India till now. However, compared to January this year, his popularity has decreased slightly. 49% are in favor of Modi while only 27% in favor of Rahul Gandhi. However, the relief for Rahul is that they have become the most popular with 46% of the votes in the opposition's PM candidates. 8% people are in favor of P. Chidambaram and Priyanka Gandhi, Mamta Banerjee and six-six percent people.

If you talk about issues then unemployment, inflation and corruption are still big issues for the common man. According to INDIA TODAY, these three issues are now more concerned with the people than in January. On the issue of unemployment, people's anxiety has increased by five percent compared to the previous survey. Issues of note-taking, women's protection and peasants are not very important for the people. At times, according to Times Now, people on economy, international relations and infrastructure gave NDA five out of three stars in five.

An Oppn poll is also threatening the BJP in the Assembly elections in the end of this year. According to ABP Sea Voter, BJP will lose in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh in all three states. Although the poll says that people want change in the state but at the center they want to keep the BJP alive. For the Prime Minister Narendra Modi becomes the first choice in these electoral states. According to the survey, in Madhya Pradesh, Congress can get 117 out of 230 seats and BJP 106, in Rajasthan 200 out of 200 and BJP 57 and Chhattisgarh 54 seats out of 90 and BJP 33 seats.

Clearly, if compared to 2014, then all these surveys do not give a good signal to the BJP. However, the relief for BJP is still a relief that the Congress does not seem to face a tough challenge. The scattered opposition is also good news for the BJP. But with elections coming closer, opposition unity in states like UP, Bihar, Maharashtra and Bengal can present a serious challenge to the BJP. So is the BJP really on the slope? Can Modi's charisma make the return of BJP?

Blessings of plans on Atal's name

After the passing away of Atal Bihari Vajpayee, a lot of things started to be opened in his name. Atal there Atal there Atal Based on the news in newspapers, we have made a list based on the demand made by the leaders. Our colleagues have also helped in making this list. The advertisement of Chhattisgarh in the Delhi newspaper is that the name of the new Raipur has been kept at Atal Nagar.
