'Muslim reservations' in Telangana 'unconstitutional', says UP CM Adityanath
Hyderabad, Nov 25: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday alleged that the "Muslim reservations" in Telangana are an insult to the Constitution made by Dr B R Ambedkar.
Addressing a poll rally in Kumuram Bheem Asifabad district in Telangana, he said the reservation to Muslims is "unconstitutional" and it should not be allowed to be implemented at any cost. "But, both the BRS and Congress want to take the country towards a new division," he alleged.
"Dirty game of appeasement politics can be seen in Telangana now. We have seen in Telangana to what extent a government can go to divide the society when the BRS government announces Muslim reservation," Adityanath said.
The "Muslim reservations" are part of a conspiracy to deprive the SCs, STs and BCs of their rights, he said adding this is an insult to the Constitution prepared by Ambedkar.
Appealing to the people to vote for the BJP in Telangana, he said the saffron party, if elected, would abolish the "unconstitutional" religion-based reservation and provide the benefit to OBCs, SCs and STs.
Attacking Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, Adityanath said the state government has cheated youth, farmers and women by not fulfilling the poll promises made to them.
He accused KCR of failing to provide "water, funds and jobs", the main plank of separate Telangana agitation.
Terming BRS as "Bhrashtachar Rishwatkhori Samithi" the Uttar Pradesh chief minister said if the BJP is elected to power, it would officially celebrate 'Hyderabad Liberation Day' -- September 17, 1948, the day the state under Nizam rule officially merged with the Indian Union.
He said the country is progressing under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Telangana needs a "double engine" government.

Elephant calf brought from Bijnor kept under care at Pilibhit Tiger Reserve
Pilibhit (PTI): A 19-day-old elephant calf, brought from Bijnor, was placed under care at the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve (PTR) on Sunday, an official said and added that the calf got separated from its mother in the forest area of Bijnor.
The calf was born on December 2 in the Bijnor forest area and got separated from its mother shortly after birth, the official said.
The forest department made several attempts to reunite it with its mother, but without any success. To ensure the calf's safety and better care, it was decided to transfer it to the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve on the instructions of senior officials.
On Saturday, Deputy Director Manish Singh received the calf. Special arrangements have been made in the reserve for its care. It has been kept in a safe and clean environment to provide it with a natural setting and protect it from external noise and disturbances.
Singh told reporters that raising an 19-day-old calf is challenging.
It requires a special diet as a substitute for mother's milk and constant monitoring.
He said a special team has been formed to provide 24-hour care. Since the calf is very young, it is being cared for like a newborn baby.
According to Singh, the primary responsibility for monitoring the calf's health has been entrusted to PTR's veterinarian, Dr Daksh Gangwar. Under his supervision, a complete record of the calf's health checkups, diet, and body temperature is being maintained. The team is ensuring that the calf does not contract any infection.
