Lucknow, March 23 (Nasheman News) Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati on Saturday described Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s greeting to his Pakistani counterpart Imran Khan on the occasion of their National Day as “cheating” and accused him of double speak for votes.
“On one hand, for vote bank politics several statements were made against Pakistan and strict public stand was taken. But on the other hand, a secret letter is sent to Pakistan Prime Minister. (Is) such act by Modi to cheat 130 crore people correct? People need to remain alert,” she tweeted.
Her remarks came a day after Khan claimed that Modi greeted him on their National Day following weeks of heightened tension between India and Pakistan triggered by the Pulwama terror attack.
“Received message from PM Modi: ‘I extend my greetings and best wishes to the people of Pakistan on the National Day of Pakistan. It is time that people of the sub-continent work together for a democratic, peaceful, progressive and prosperous region, in an atmosphere free of terror and violence’,” the former cricketer-turned-politician tweeted.
Khan’s tweet came on a day when the Indian government boycotted Pakistan’s National Day event in Delhi and the Indian High Commissioner in Islamabad also announced that he would not be attending the event there.
Pakistan National Day is celebrated on March 23 every year to mark the Lahore Resolution.

Rahul should apologise for Pitroda’s remarks: Shah
[Nasheman news]New Delhi BJP chief Amit Shah on Saturday said that Congress President Rahul Gandhi should apologise for his chief advisor Sam Pitroda’s statement on the February 14 Pulwama attack.
“I demand from the Congress President that he must apologise to the families of the slain troopers,” Shah told the media here.
Shah’s statement came in response to Pitroda’s comments that incidents like the Pulwama suicide bombing that killed 40 CRPF troopers, “happen all the time” and that the UPA government also could have sent planes to Pakistan after the 2008 Mumbai terror attack but “that is not the right approach”.
Shah questioned whether the Congress considered heinous attacks as a normal phenomenon.
“At a time when the country is growing rapidly towards the general election and the issue of national security is important for the voters, the statement of Sam Pitroda is very unfortunate,” he said.
He slammed the Congress saying that doubting the Indian Air Force was not right for any party’s national president.
He said that the Bharatiya Janata Party at the Centre has adopted a zero tolerance policy towards terrorism.
Trinamool removes ‘Congress’ from its logo
[Nasheman news] Kolkata West Bengal’s ruling All India Trinamool Congress has dropped the ‘Congress’ from its new logo earlier this month and added dollops of blue, white and green colour to it besides giving it a catchy slogan in a bid to make the party one with the people of the eastern state.
Observers said it could also be Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s way of distancing her party completely from the Indian National Congress.
The Trinamool was formed on January 1, 1998, by Banerjee who came out of the Congress complaining that it was “hand-in-glove with the CPI-M-led Left Front” then in power in Bengal.
Thereafter, Banerjee and her new party went hammer and tongs at the CPI-M for over a decade and finally managed to ride to power by allying with the Congress and defeating the Left Front in the 2011 Assembly polls.
All these years, Banerjee never shied away from harping on her Congress past, and instead repeatedly projected her party as the “real Congress”.
Despite tying up with the Congress twice — briefly before the 2001 Assembly polls and also between 2009 and 2011 — Banerjee aggressively expanded her party’s base across the state, mainly at the cost of her old party.
Many of the one-time heavyweights of the Congress are now with the Trinamool and occupy important positions.
Banerjee’s close associates point out that no other leaders in the past were able to decimate the Congress in their respective states the way she has done in Bengal.
“The name Trinamool is enough. It resonates in the hearts of all our workers and supporters,” said a Trinamool Lok Sabha member.
Another party leader pointed out that it was only Indira Gandhi who was successful in splitting the Congress and ensuring that her party emerges as the real Congress.
“As such, Banerjee does not need the Congress background any more. She is very much a leader in her own right and the Trinamool has its own identity,” he said.
Banerjee has time and again spoken about a non-Congress, non-BJP Federal Front over the past two years, stressing on a greater role for the regional parties after the Lok Sabha polls.
The logo has used a blue-white colour combination in a big way surrounding the party’s twin flower symbol. There is also a very careful use of green colour in composing the font of the word ‘Trinamool’.
“Blue-white is Banerjee’s favourite colour. All government buildings, police stations and bus stands have this colour combination. The use of the same combination in the logo makes it an extension of the theme Bengal,” said the leader.
“Trinamool is a vibrant party, a party of the future, of the youth. The colour green signifies that. Blue-white is now Bengal’s theme colour,” the MP said.
The slogan “Amar, Apnar, Banglar” (mine, yours, Bengal’s) is said to be an effort to project the party as the representative of Bengal, and the only political outfit capable of fulfilling the wishes and desires of all sections of people in the state.
Trinamool leaders said the party would continue to be registered as the All India Trinamool Congress with the Election Commission.
