I will lose Mamata by 50,000 votes, or I will leave politics - Shuvendu

Kolkata: State politics is in full swing after West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced she would contest from Nandigram. Former TMC leader Shuvendu Adhikari was contesting from the Nandigram constituency. He was even called the second power center of the TMC.

However, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has said she will contest from Nandigram to challenge her as she recently joined the BJP. After Mamata's announcement, Shuvendu officials have also taken action. He has also strongly criticized his former politician Basu Mamata.

"If I do not lose to Mamata in Nandigram by a margin of 50,000 votes, I will say goodbye to politics," Shuvendu said at a BJP rally in Kolkata. The TMC is no longer a political party. It has become a private company. TMC has hired election strategists from Bihar. "It is clear that the BJP has a strong presence in West Bengal," he said.

BJP state chief Dilip Ghosh, on the other hand, said Mamata knew she would not win in her constituency Bhawanipore. That is why he wants to test himself on Nandigram soil. TMC ministers are looking for safe seats. "But wherever they go, they can't find a safe place."

If the chief minister is number one, the state is still number one : the Congress

Bhubaneswar, Former finance minister and senior Congress leader Shri Panchanan Kanungo at the PCC office today said that the huge rally in Kalahandi and the tragic loss of Kalahandi were a model of development. He said Nabinbabu's rule began in 2000. By then, 80% of Indrabati's work had been completed. Why has the government taken such a bold step in irrigating only 204 Indrabati lands in the last two decades?

The big news is that the state's No. 1 chief minister, Nabinbabu, has not yet been ranked in the top four states in any of the country's products. In Odisha, the area under agricultural cultivation was 4 lakh hectares, of which 54.27 lakh hectares were cultivated in 2013-14. Kharif rice is grown on 4.3 million hectares of land. An average of 1 hectare of land per family. According to the government, 22.56 lakh hectares of land during the kharif season is irrigated with good rainfall. Due to the lack of water during the drought, the crop is reduced and the amount of irrigation is reduced by 30%. During the Rabi season, only 1.3 million hectares or 20% of the land is irrigated.

During the dry season, only 3 or more 1.5 lakh hectares of land are irrigated. The average annual rainfall in the state is 1,500 mm. And the flow of water is 75 billion cubic meters. Of these, only 4 b. Meters, 1.83 bcm under 40 honey schemes. In others, only 0.45 B.C., with a total of 14.38 B.C. This means that 18 to 20% of the water is collected and 42% of all blackwater flows into the sea. The government itself has acknowledged this fact.

As a result of what Naveen Babu has done to the government in terms of "Godara Kode Yade Madhe", only 4.24% of the irrigation system has been used, up from 57.75% when the government took office. The question for the Chief Minister is: Has the water storage capacity of Indrabati, Hirakud, Rengali, Kolab, etc. increased or decreased in the last 20 years? How many hectares of farmland have been affected by the decline in water storage capacity? Rengali Left and Right, how many more years will it take to complete the canal work? How long will the Kanpur project, which started on the Baitarani River, receive irrigation power? How many lands have been irrigated on Kharip, Rabi and Kharadin so far? That is, how much of the state land has been harvested?

Due to the government's negligence, the irrigation capacity of the Medium Irrigation Projects built by the former Congress government has been greatly reduced. Even after promising four times for the much-hyped Vritang Irrigation Project in Nayagarh, the work has yet to be done. The promise of a water-stopping system by building six small anicuts on the river. Where did it go? What is the status of the river connection system at the bottom? So far, out of a total of 204 projects of 12 mega irrigation projects in Kalahandi, not a single one has been involved in the water distribution process. In 2005, it was announced that at least 316 blocks in the state would be provided with 358 water bottles of kharif gems.

So far, 18 blocks have not received 3% water. In districts like Kabarangpur, Balangir, Kalahandi, Kandhamal and Mayurbhanj, there is still no irrigation system for 30% of the land. Five blocks in Nuapadha are still without 1% irrigation facilities. A check for Rs 4,000 crore has so far been spent on the check dams launched in 2010-11 under the Chief Minister's Adibandha Yojana, but only 400 hectares of land has not been flooded during the rainy season. Where did the creek irrigation system go in the coastal areas? The irrigation system in the state has completely collapsed due to the inability of 18,000 irrigation points. Mr. Kanungo called on the Chief Minister to answer all these questions.

Congress spokesperson Manoj Mohapatra provided a comparative picture of the state with the development of irrigation in the neighboring states of Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. He said the state of irrigation in Odisha was very poor compared to neighboring states and the state government had not paid any attention to the irrigation system in the state for the past 20 years. Congress leader Shri Manoranjan Das strongly criticized the state government's attitude towards irrigation or paternalism and said that the lack of irrigation system in both areas is having a profound effect on both agriculture and farmers in Odisha.

Implementing an electoral system in a country can reduce the cost of elections in the country


Bhubaneswar, The implementation of the "One Nation One Election" system in the country will not reduce the amount of development work that was hampered by the implementation of the Election Model Code, and will save human resources, energy, time and financial resources. The system will reduce the cost of elections and accelerate development in the country. This will also reduce the burden on the administrative system. BJP national spokesperson and Bhubaneswar MP Aparajita Sadangi said the GDP loss could be prevented to some extent if implemented.

This was not acceptable due to the lack of political will. In 2015, the parliamentary standing committee, led by the Parliamentary Standing Committee, submitted a report calling for joint elections. The Policy Commission then issued a reference to the 2014 by-elections. The proposal was submitted in August 2017 in support of the "One Nation One Election" led by Justice BS Chauhan of the 21st Legislative Commission on the proposal in the 2014 and 2024 elections.

"Currently, the Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi, has expressed interest in holding a single election and has taken steps to discuss it," she said. Prior to the press conference, a webinar titled "One Nation, One Election" was held.

The issue's end has the recaptured Doomsday in the control of the KGB.
