'Hum do humare do': Rahul takes dig at renaming of Gujarat stadium, name of 2 ends after corporates
New Delhi, Feb 24: In a dig at a cricket ground in Gujarat being renamed after Narendra Modi, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday again invoked his 'Hum do humare do' jibe, claiming that truth was out with the stadium having the prime minister's name, two ends being named after corporate houses and Amit Shah's son being involved in cricket administration.
"Beautiful how the truth reveals itself. Narendra Modi stadium -- Adani end -- Reliance end. With Jay Shah presiding," Gandhi tweeted, with the hashtag 'HumDoHumareDo'.
Amid the controversy over the cricket stadium in Gujarat being renamed after Prime Minister Modi, the government on Wednesday said the name change involves only the Motera stadium and the entire sports complex continues to be named after Sardar Patel.
Soon after President Ram Nath Kovind inaugurated the world's largest cricket stadium in Ahmedabad, which will now be known as 'Narendra Modi stadium', social media was flooded with remarks including by some leaders of the Congress and other opposition parties who alleged that the renaming exercise amounted to an "insult" to Sardar Patel.
Beautiful how the truth reveals itself.

Hearing for HD Revanna's anticipatory bail adjourned to 2:45 PM today
Bengaluru: The Special Court of People's Representatives has deferred the hearing of the anticipatory bail application filed by former Minister HD Revanna in connection with a woman's kidnapping case.
Advocate BN Jagadish, representing the SIT (Special Investigation Team), requested time to present arguments and file objections against Revanna's anticipatory bail. An accused has already been apprehended in relation to the kidnapping case, and the SIT aims to gather pertinent evidence from this individual. Consequently, they sought an extension to prepare their objection.
However, Murthy Naik, Revanna's advocate, opposed the request for additional time, citing a notice issued under IPC Section 41. He further argued that Revanna must attend the hearing by 5:30 PM today and seeked attention towards the absence of specific allegations directly implicating Revanna in the kidnapping within the FIR.
Following deliberation, the court instructed the SIT to submit their objection and postponed the hearing until 2:45 PM.
