SC/ST panel seeks probe into charges of discrimination against Dalit power engrs
Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh SC/ST Commission chairman Baijnath Rawat has written to chief minister Yogi Adityanath seeking inquiry into allegations that Dalit engineers were subjected to discrimination in discoms. In his letter written on Wednesday, Rawat referred to a representation submitted by UP Power Officers Association president RP Ken and other office-bearers and said that the association had alleged that over the past several years, Dalit engineers faced discrimination and that service rules were selectively applied in certain cases. Though Rawat’s letter does not independently establish the allegations, it urges the CM to examine the facts mentioned in the association’s representation and issue orders for a high-level, impartial investigation. The letter also seeks appropriate action based on the findings of such an inquiry. According to a statement issued by the association, it had approached the commission with details concerning more than a dozen Dalit engineers working in different state power companies. The organisation claimed that different standards had been applied in their cases and said it had submitted documents in support of its allegations. Association president RP Ken, acting president Avadhesh Kumar Verma, vice-president PM Prabhakar and office-bearers Harishchandra Verma and Mukesh Babu said they expected an inquiry to establish the facts. The association said its objective was to seek protection of engineers’ rights under constitutional and legal provisions, rather than create confrontation.

TDP Internal Rift Exposed: Dalit leader alleges kidnap threat in Kurnool
Kurnool: Internal friction within the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) took a serious turn in Chippagiri mandal on Wednesday, following allegations by a grassroots Dalit party leader, Anand, that he was threatened with abuse and kidnapping by Teja, son-in-law of TDP mandal convenor Konda Purushotham. According to the complainant, Teja allegedly placed an abusive phone call warning him against interfering with Purushotham, reportedly stating, “You have crossed the limit. I will take you away,” while invoking his familial ties to the mandal convenor. An audio recording of the conversation has quickly circulated across social media platforms, intensifying ripples through local political circles. The episode has drawn sharp focus to the party’s internal treatment of Dalit leaders, particularly against the backdrop of earlier political clashes where cases had been registered against Dalit individuals. The controversy has placed intense pressure on the Chippagiri TDP leadership to address the growing factional friction. Anand and his supporters have formally sought the intervention of senior party leaders, demanding an impartial inquiry and appropriate disciplinary action. Local residents and party workers have expressed deep concern over how a party member could face such intimidation from within the same political organization, prompting local police to initiate inquiries into the matter as political tensions mount across the mandal.

Pregnant Dalit woman dies after alleged police assault in India
Anjali’s death after alleged police assault exposes vulnerability facing Dalit women at intersection of caste hierarchy, gender and state power NEW DELHI, India (MNTV) — A 28-year-old pregnant Dalit woman died after her family says a police officer kicked her in the abdomen during a late-night operation to detain her husband in northern India, triggering protests and demands for action against officers involved. Anjali was at her home in Labhaua village in Uttar Pradesh’s Firozabad district when police arrived around 11:45 p.m. Sunday to take her husband, Gaurav, into custody in connection with a theft case. Her family alleges that when she pleaded with officers not to take him away, Sub-Inspector Dharmpal Singh kicked her in the abdomen, causing her to fall. Police took Gaurav, 32, into custody while Anjali’s condition subsequently deteriorated. She was taken to a hospital in Shikohabad, where she gave birth to a boy Monday morning. Her health worsened after delivery, and she was transferred to a private hospital in Firozabad, where doctors declared her dead. Her newborn son was reported to be in critical condition and was referred to a hospital in Agra for further treatment. Anjali belonged to India’s Dalit community, historically treated as “untouchable” and relegated to the bottom of the Hindu caste hierarchy. Dalit women remain particularly vulnerable to violence and discrimination because caste and gender inequalities often overlap, while rights campaigners have long raised concerns over barriers marginalized communities face when seeking protection and accountability from state institutions. India abolished the practice of untouchability under its Constitution and has specific laws intended to protect Dalits and other historically oppressed castes from discrimination and violence. But caste remains deeply embedded in parts of Indian society, with Dalits continuing to report violence, humiliation, segregation and other forms of discrimination despite those legal protections. Anjali’s death sparked protests by villagers outside Shikohabad police station. Her family said Gaurav was released from custody after police were informed that his wife had died. Firozabad Superintendent of Police Aditya Langhe subsequently suspended six police personnel for negligence. Those suspended include Sub-Inspectors Dharmpal Singh and Satyapal Singh, Head Constables Mohan Singh and Arvind Kumar and Constables Bhavtosh Kumar and Kuldeep Kumar. Anjali underwent a post-mortem examination late Monday. Her last rites were performed later that night amid heavy police deployment. Her death also drew demands for an investigation from politicians representing constituencies where caste discrimination and Dalit rights are prominent concerns. Samajwadi Party national general secretary and lawmaker Ramjilal Suman visited Anjali’s family Tuesday before staging a sit-in with party workers at Shikohabad police station. He demanded an impartial investigation and strict action against anyone found responsible. Azad Samaj Party chief Chandrashekhar Azad, a prominent Dalit political leader, also called for a fair investigation and action against police personnel found responsible.

Woman minister in Karnataka cabinet soon says, Randeep Surjewala
Surjewala pointed to previous governments, saying that during the JDS-BJP coalition government, then CM Kumaraswamy had himself held the Women and Child Development portfolio. BENGALURU: AICC General Secretary in-charge of Karnataka Randeep Singh Surjewala on Wednesday said the Congress leadership would soon resolve the issue of inducting a woman minister in the Karnataka cabinet, which currently has no woman representative despite the DK Shivakumar government completing 100 days in office. Hitting back at Union minister HD Kumaraswamy who had jibed the Congress on this issue, he said, “I just want to remind those making a noise that they never had a Women and Child Development minister for a full tenure.” Surjewala told reporters that he was to blame for the controversy. “This is not Delhi’s fault. It is the fault of the General Secretary, AICC in-charge of Karnataka, who could not decide on account of certain political exigencies. We have many (aspirants)… so very soon we will sort out the issue after consulting with the Chief Minister, our PCC president who is very keen and hounds me every day on this, as also ex-CM (Siddaramaiah) and other state leaders,” he stated, adding that LoP in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi has also taken the lack of a woman minister very seriously. Surjewala pointed to previous governments, saying that during the JDS-BJP coalition government, then CM Kumaraswamy had himself held the Women and Child Development portfolio. Surjewala said the Congress government was committed to implementing the socio-economic and educational survey report in Karnataka, but would not take any step that violated court directions, as the matter is currently sub judice. He said social justice remained the party’s core commitment and was shared by Siddaramaiah, CM Shivakumar and party workers. The party would seek the court’s guidance on implementing the report at the earliest. Responding to BJP leaders’ criticism of the government’s stance on singing specific stanzas of Vande Mataram, Surjewala argued that those raising objections were unaware of the historical context and the freedom movement. He recounted that Vande Mataram was first sung at an Indian National Congress session in 1896, and formally adopted as the national song in 1930. He stated that leaders such as Dr BR Ambedkar, Jawaharlal Nehru and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel had agreed on adopting two stanzas on the guidance of Rabindranath Tagore in the Constituent Assembly, which was accepted across the board. The Karnataka government will strictly adhere to Government of India protocols during visits by the President, Governor or Prime Minister, while otherwise respecting the traditions framed by Tagore and the Constituent Assembly, he added. GAYATRI SHANTEGOWDA HANDS RESUME TO SIDDU Bengaluru: The political drama surrounding Congress MLC Gayatri Shantegowda’s stalled entry into the Karnataka cabinet came to a head on Wednesday with the legislator personally approaching former chief minister Siddaramaiah. Multiple sources have pointed to Siddaramaiah as the driving force behind the exclusion, despite the Congress high command having reportedly cleared her name. On Wednesday, Gayatri handed Siddaramaiah a document. When he asked what it was, she reportedly told him it was her resume, which is seen as her continued claim to a cabinet berth. She also spoke to AICC General Secretary K C Venugopal at the Congress office, after KPCC president B K Hariprasad introduced her to him. The apparent contradiction — a leader cleared by the party’s central leadership still having to lobby for the post she was promised — has fuelled criticism that state-level factional politics are overriding decisions made at the national level.

Rift in Tamil Nadu Congress over TVK ties, Rahul Gandhi as PM candidate
Former TNCC chief Selvaperunthagai said the Congress should form an alliance only with parties that openly and honestly accept Rahul Gandhi as the prime ministerial candidate. CHENNAI: A war of words broke out between Tamil Nadu Congress leaders on Wednesday over the party’s alliance with the ruling TVK, with former TNCC president K Selvaperunthagai insisting the ally should publicly accept Rahul Gandhi as the PM candidate, while Rajya Sabha MP Praveen Chakravarty sought to play down his remarks, prompting a fresh counter from Selvaperunthagai. The episode began with Selvaperunthagai, speaking to reporters in Guindy after paying floral tributes to freedom fighter Ramasamy Padayatchiar on his 109th birth anniversary, saying the Congress should form an alliance only with parties that openly and honestly accept Rahul Gandhi as the prime ministerial candidate. “If Rahul Gandhi is the PM, alliance partners should accept that. If not, what is the point of being in this alliance? It is only honest to have an alliance with those who openly and sincerely accept Rahul as the prime minister,” said Selvaperunthagai, who was in office during his party’s alliance with the DMK. Later in the day, MP Praveen Chakravarty, speaking to reporters at Chennai airport, responding to Selvaperunthagai’s comments, asked, “Who is he now? In the past he may have been whatever he was, but now that is not relevant.” He said the alliance had been strong before the government was formed and remains equally strong after the government came to power. Chakravarty said the alliance would also work together in the upcoming bypolls. He said TVK is contesting the Tamil Nadu bye-election, while Congress is fielding a candidate in Puducherry bypoll. Later in the day, responding to Chakravarty’s reference to the meeting with the chief minister, Selvaperunthagai took to social media, saying that a long and cordial conversation could not by itself constitute an assurance on the prime ministerial candidate. “Let the chief minister say it, or at least let any senior functionary of that party say that Rahul Gandhi is our Prime Ministerial candidate,” he said. Selvaperunthagai also asked Chakravarty to raise issues like why remarks criticising PM Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah or the BJP were removed from the Assembly proceedings when they meet the next time.

Cong attacks state govt over education policy ahead of Rahul’s visit
Indore: Ahead of Rahul Gandhi’s scheduled ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’ event in Indore on Sept 19, Madhya Pradesh Congress media department head Mukesh Nayak on Tuesday criticised BJP govt in the state, alleging failures in higher education, recruitment, and employment generation. Nayak said that while global education systems prioritise emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, and quantum computing, Madhya Pradesh’s public universities struggle in national competitive rankings. Citing the NIRF 2025 overall rankings, he noted that IIT Indore stands at 27th, IISER Bhopal at 75th, and Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya at 49th. Nayak criticised the recurring delays, paper leaks, and cancellations in competitive examinations, asserting that while students spend years preparing for recruitment tests, systemic flaws deprive eligible youth of secure livelihoods. He said that Rahul Gandhi’s upcoming interaction in Indore will serve as a platform for students to demand accountability regarding exam integrity, timely recruitment, and educational reform.
