BJP Leads Massive Cleanliness Drive in Dhanas Under Seva Sankalp Abhiyan

/

Party leaders and local residents join hands in Chandigarh to advance the Swachh Bharat mission through voluntary public participation. Chandigarh: The Chandigarh unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party organised a major cleanliness drive in Dhanas on Saturday. Led by State President Jatinder Pal Malhotra, the initiative forms part of the ongoing Seva Sankalp Abhiyan. The month-long campaign runs from September 17 to October 17. In addition, it marks the birth anniversary of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Party workers gathered inside the vending zone of the four-storey EWS Colony in Dhanas. Meanwhile, scores of local residents arrived on site to clear litter alongside volunteers. Several prominent party leaders attended the event to support the community effort. National Sah-Sangathan Mahamantri Saudan Singh and Chandigarh Mayor Saurabh Joshi actively joined the sanitation drive. Furthermore, programme convenor Bharat Kumar, Ravi Rawat, Sonu Sarpanch, Councillor Manoj Sonkar, and former Mayor Rajesh Kalia participated alongside workers. Addressing the gathering, State President Jatinder Pal Malhotra outlined the broader vision behind the movement. “Cleanliness is not only the responsibility of the government but also the duty of every citizen,” Malhotra stated. He reminded attendees that Prime Minister Narendra Modi made sanitation a people’s movement from the ramparts of the Red Fort in 2014. Mayor Saurabh Joshi also highlighted the civic duty required to preserve the city’s green spaces. He noted that administrative work alone cannot preserve Chandigarh’s beauty. “Active participation of citizens is essential for a cleaner Chandigarh,” Joshi said. Therefore, he urged residents to adopt hygienic practices in their daily routines. Through combined dedication, local residents and BJP workers turned the campaign into a meaningful public success. Consequently, the programme proved that community cooperation can swiftly transform civic sanitation into an active, everyday habit.

Rahul Gandhi Should Introspect Instead of Blaming Institutions: Sanjay Tandon

/

Senior BJP leader Sanjay Tandon criticised Rahul Gandhi over questions raised about electoral institutions. He urged Congress to focus on organisational revival and reconnecting with voters. Chandigarh: Senior BJP leader Sanjay Tandon on Monday criticised Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his questions about electoral institutions. Tandon urged the Congress to examine its repeated electoral setbacks instead of blaming the Election Commission and the electoral process. Tandon made the remarks while addressing the media in Chandigarh alongside Mayor Saurabh Joshi. BJP State Media In-charge Ravi Rawat, spokesperson Gurpreet Dhillon and councillors Rajinder Sharma and Kanwar Rana also attended the press meet. Tandon said the Hindi saying, “Naach na jaane, aangan teda,” aptly described what he called Rahul Gandhi’s approach. He alleged that Congress raises questions about the electoral system when election results do not favour the party. “The Congress should ask itself why it is repeatedly losing the confidence of voters,” Tandon said. He pointed to election victories by different opposition parties as evidence for his argument. Tandon noted that Congress has won elections in Karnataka, Kerala and Himachal Pradesh. He also cited Aam Aadmi Party victories in Punjab and Delhi and TMC victories in West Bengal. Meanwhile, Tandon defended the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. He described electoral-roll revision as a regular democratic exercise intended to maintain accurate voter lists. He urged Congress to participate constructively rather than oppose the process. Tandon also alleged that Rahul Gandhi has questioned democratic and parliamentary institutions on domestic and international platforms. He said political parties have the right to question governments, but allegations against constitutional institutions should rely on evidence. Referring to Gandhi’s 2019 “Chowkidar chor hai” remark, Tandon said Gandhi later expressed regret over attributing the statement to the Supreme Court. Tandon argued that political leaders should exercise responsibility while making serious allegations. Tandon further urged Congress to strengthen its organisation and reconnect with voters. He said Parliament should focus on reasoned debate, evidence and policy alternatives. Mayor Saurabh Joshi also addressed the issue of SIR in Chandigarh. He said the draft electoral roll contained 4,50,282 voters, while the final roll had 4,60,209 voters. Joshi said the figures showed that the voter count increased after the revision. He also asked Congress to explain the promises made through its 2024 Lok Sabha election guarantee card. He said repeated allegations do not establish facts and added that voters ultimately hold political parties accountable for their promises and performance.

Specialist doctors provided free clinical consultations and diagnostic screenings at Bharti Bhawan to mark Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s birthday. CHANDIGARH — Around 200 residents from Sectors 20 and 30 availed themselves of comprehensive medical services during a free health check-up camp organized at Bharti Bhawan, Sector 30, on Sunday. The community initiative formed part of the nationwide ‘Seva Sankalp Abhiyan’ undertaken by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to commemorate the birthday of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Chandigarh BJP State President Jatinder Pal Malhotra attended the event as Chief Guest, while senior party leader Sanjay Tandon joined as a guest of honour to encourage the volunteers. Meanwhile, BJP State Spokesperson Naresh Arora spearheaded the organisation of the camp alongside Mandal President Ravi Rawat, District Secretary Meenakshi Singh, and the dedicated team of Mandal No. 18. Medical teams provided specialized consultations across multiple disciplines, including general medicine, orthopaedics, urology, cardiology, and pulmonology. In addition, attending visitors received complimentary access to essential diagnostic procedures such as electrocardiograms (ECG), pulmonary function tests (PFT), uroflowmetry, bone mineral density (BMD) assessments, random blood sugar (RBS) checks, and blood pressure monitoring. “Through the Seva Sankalp Abhiyan, our endeavour is to take the spirit of service and health awareness to every section of society,” Naresh Arora said while addressing participants. “Healthy citizens are the foundation of a strong society and a developed India.” Furthermore, attending doctors offered personalized diet guidance and emphasized early detection for chronic lifestyle ailments. Therefore, residents welcomed the doorstep delivery of specialized healthcare services without financial burden. Local community members expressed strong appreciation for the camp, noting that having diverse clinical specialists and modern diagnostic tools under one roof made health evaluations accessible and efficient.

Lies and Misinformation Exposed: Congress-INDI Alliance Allegations Against Election Commission Baseless, Says BJP

/

BJP Chandigarh chief Jatinder Pal Malhotra slammed the opposition for attacking constitutional bodies and misleading citizens regarding the Special Intensive Revision process. CHANDIGARH — The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) launched a sharp counter-offensive against the Congress and the INDI Alliance on Sunday, calling their allegations against the Election Commission baseless and politically motivated. Addressing a press conference at the party’s state headquarters ‘Kamalam’ in Sector 33, BJP Chandigarh Pradesh President Jatinder Pal Malhotra accused the opposition of deliberately eroding public trust in constitutional institutions. Malhotra clarified that the controversy over a letter sent to the Cabinet Secretary was completely manufactured. He stated that the Election Commission’s clarification already established that the letter involved an internal administrative matter concerning an officer’s service, rather than any electoral policy or the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise. Therefore, linking routine administrative correspondence to policy decisions amounts to deliberately distorting facts. Meanwhile, the BJP chief addressed the opposition’s claims regarding Form-6 voter enrolments. He affirmed that Form-6 remains the standard, legally prescribed method for eligible citizens to enter electoral rolls. Furthermore, booth-level officers (BLOs) are conducting door-to-door outreach solely to ensure maximum democratic participation. “Political opposition has its place, but compromising the credibility of democratic institutions cannot be accepted,” Malhotra said. “The Congress and the INDI Alliance should abandon the politics of lies, misinformation, and incomplete information, and present their views before the people on the basis of facts.” In addition, Malhotra noted that questioning independent bodies like the judiciary, the CAG, and the armed forces has become a recurring pattern for Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. He recalled that Gandhi previously tendered an unconditional apology in the Supreme Court over remarks made during the 2019 Rafale hearings. BJP Chief Spokesperson Dr. Dharinder Tayal highlighted the opposition’s selective trust in electoral systems. He pointed out that while the Congress celebrates the Election Commission and electronic voting machines when winning in neighbouring Himachal Pradesh, it routinely discredits those same institutions upon facing electoral defeat. State Media In-charge Ravi Rawat, Spokesperson Gurpreet Dhillon, Rahul Sharma, and Neha Arora also attended the briefing.

However, medical teams also uncovered critical health trends during routine diagnostics. Around 300 patients registered significantly high blood sugar levels, with many learning about their diabetic condition for the first time.

Urgent Need for Institutional Safeguards
Chandigarh

Should the Uniform Remain Apolitical? A Call for Institutional Safeguards

/

A concerned veteran questions the rising politicization of the military and demands concrete policy changes to protect the dignity of soldiers. Chandigarh: (Santosh Gupta) A worrying trend has emerged within the Indian military recently. Senior officers are increasingly securing post-retirement political jobs. Consequently, this shift threatens the core values of the uniform. Trust and institutional respect are deeply at stake. The military must always remain subordinate to constitutional political power. However, the uniform should never become a simple stepping stone for political office. Currently, political parties frequently offer senior officers top roles without a mandatory cooling-off period. These roles include positions as politicians, Governors, or corporate heads. Therefore, the strict line between military service and political patronage becomes heavily blurred. Lt Col Gurprakash Singh Virk recently highlighted these deep concerns in a public appeal. He actively questioned the historical silence of military leadership regarding veteran welfare. “Had the military leadership consistently defended the institution… would India have remained a mute spectator to the 50% pension cut in 1973?” he asked. Moreover, he pointed out the ongoing injustice faced by SSCOs. Veterans are repeatedly forced to protest at Jantar Mantar just to be heard. Meanwhile, the new ‘Agniveer’ scheme has turned military service into a highly political issue. Words like ‘Agni’ and ‘Veer’ cannot replace true respect and a meaningful social contract. Furthermore, institutional trust breaks when governments intentionally delay favorable verdicts by the Armed Forces Tribunal. Consequently, Gen Z must ask a crucial question today. Is the military still an apolitical institution? Or is it slowly becoming an extension of political influence? According to Virk, the answer must lie in robust institutional safeguards rather than political dependence. India urgently needs a comprehensive Armed Forces Welfare and Resettlement Act. This proposed law must cover the Army, Navy, and Air Force equally. In addition, the country requires a separate Military Pay Commission. A soldier’s solemn oath to the Constitution does not end with retirement. Furthermore, the armed forces community should consider seeking a more direct constitutional presence in legislatures. Ultimately, the nation must decide if the uniform deserves genuine representation and protection, rather than just token respect.

AJ Singh and Simran Kaur flagged off the rally at the Chandigarh Club. Several notable officials, including District Governor Rita Kalra and President Anurag Aggarwal, attended the ceremony. Subsequently, drivers traveled through Panchkula before taking the scenic Kalka-Shimla Highway. They finally concluded their journey at the Sanawar campus. The organizers conducted this thrilling event in the Time-Speed-Distance (TSD) format. Therefore, each car strictly required a driver, an assistant, and a visually impaired navigator. Navigators actively used detailed route instructions to guide their drivers. Specifically, they relied on Braille-based information to stay on the correct path. As a result, they demonstrated excellent decision-making and navigational skills in a highly competitive setting. Afterward, participants closely interacted with Sanawar students. During this session, they discussed assistive technology, daily accessibility, and equal opportunities for people with disabilities. Ruchi Pradhan Datta, Headmaster of Sanawar, expressed great pride in hosting the concluding leg. She emphasized the strong message of inclusion attached to the sport. She stated, “Sanawar has a special connection with late Hari Singh. It was inspiring to see visually impaired participants demonstrating confidence, independence, and navigational skills.” Similarly, Manjit Kaur highlighted the core motivational message of the entire event. She noted that visual impairment does not limit people from tackling challenging roles. However, society must provide the right opportunities and necessary support. Ultimately, this rally successfully challenged conventional perceptions about blindness. It clearly highlighted the massive potential and remarkable abilities of persons with disabilities.

Row Erupts Over National Song: BJP Accuses Congress of Double Standards Over ‘Vande Mataram’

/

BJP leader Ravi Rawat criticized the Congress party for objecting to the complete national song at a Jammu and Kashmir film festival. He pointed out that Congress’s own allies and Chief Ministers actively support the rendition. CHANDIGARH — A political controversy erupted after the Congress party reportedly objected to playing the full version of ‘Vande Mataram’ at Jammu and Kashmir’s first International Film Festival. Consequently, BJP Chandigarh Pradesh Media Incharge Ravi Rawat strongly criticized the opposition party, calling its stance a clear example of double standards and appeasement politics. Rawat noted that the criticism did not originate solely from political opponents. Instead, senior National Conference MLA Tanvir Sadiq publicly challenged the party’s position. Sadiq advised Congress leaders to examine their own states before lecturing others. Furthermore, Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah shared Sadiq’s statement online, increasing political pressure on Congress leadership. Meanwhile, Rawat pointed out the sharp contradiction within Congress’s governance. While leaders in Jammu and Kashmir raised objections, Congress-ruled states such as Karnataka and Telangana play the complete national song during official programs. Therefore, Rawat questioned the political intent behind the dispute. “Whom is Congress trying to appease by objecting to ‘Vande Mataram’? The people of the country deserve an answer,” Rawat stated during a media briefing. Additionally, Rawat underscored the historical significance of the anthem. He emphasized that the song is neither an electoral slogan nor the property of any single political entity. During British colonial rule, the words inspired millions of freedom fighters who marched fearlessly against colonial oppression. “Vande Mataram is the voice of the soul of India,” Rawat stated. “It inspired a subjugated nation to rise against British rule and resolve to break the chains of slavery.” However, Congress leaders continue to face questions over their shifting stance on national symbols. Rawat advised the party to abandon selective outrage and look at its own political partners. Ultimately, he asserted that national symbols represent collective sacrifice rather than partisan gain, urging all political figures to respect the sentiments tied to India’s freedom movement.
