Puttur, May 7: When Muslims have been trying to organize their community, Congress leaders have been dividing the Hindus due to which Congress is more dangerous than Muslims, said Sullia MLA Angara.

Speaking at the BJP SC/ST Morcha meeting here on Monday, he said that after Congress came to power in the state, it has been planning and executing its schemes to oppress the Hindus in the state. By bringing in Anti-Superstitious Belief, the government has hurt the sentiments of the Hindus. Through this, it has been appeasing the Muslims and dividing the Hindus. But people are aware of this strategy. The BJP would win 150 seats this time, he said.

The Congress leaders have been alleging that he has made illegal property. But this allegation is far from truth. If he has any of such illegal property, he would be happy to give it to Congress, he said.

BJP candidate Sanjeeva Marandur said that Ganga Kalyana scheme was being implemented properly. But in the last five years, the Congress did not find any beneficiaries. It has given the benefit of the scheme to its own supporters. Despite its ruling for the last 65 years, the Congress has done nothing for the welfare of backward classes. It has been misusing the name of Dr BR Ambedkar. But they do not have moral right to say the name of Ambedkar. It was NDA government which gave him the Bharat Ratna Award and BJP is committed to fulfill his intensions, he said.

“We have lost many of our friends during Congress administration. So, people should not give another chance to the Congress”, he said appealing the people to support him in the name of Hindutva.

ZP president Meenakshi Manjunath, MLC Kota Srinivas Poojary, party state SC Morcha president Bhagirathi, Puttur SC Morcha president Kittu Ajila, taluk panchayat president Bhavani Chidanand, vice president Rajeshwari and others were present.

Etawah (UP), Sep 16: BJP's Etawah MLA Sarita Bhadauriya fell onto the railway tracks while vying to wave the green flag for the Agra-Varanasi Vande Bharat Express here on Monday.

Purported videos of the incident surfaced on social media.

The incident occurred amidst a crowded platform as the train arrived around 6 pm. The 61-year-old second-term BJP lawmaker was among a host of people holding the green flag as they stood at the platform, the video showed.

Following the virtual inauguration of the Vande Bharat train by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the train, numbered 20175, was flagged off by the Rail Minister Ravneet Singh Bittu from Agra.

When contacted by PTI, BJP's Etawah unit treasurer Sanjeev Bhadauriya said, "The MLA was helped off the track and she then waited for some time at the platform for the flag-off event."

"Later she consulted doctors and is resting at her home now. She did not suffer any visible physical injuries. If there is any internal injury, it is yet to be confirmed," Bhadauriya said.

The train made stops at Tundla before arriving at Etawah station. Upon its arrival, a commotion ensued on the platform as various political figures, including Samajwadi Party MP Jitendra Douwhare, former BJP MP Ram Shankar, and current MLA Sarita Bhadauriya, gathered to participate in the flag-off, the videos showed.

As the train's horn signalled its departure, the platform became chaotic with supporters jostling for position. In the ensuing melee, the MLA was pushed off the platform and she fell onto the railway tracks in front of the train, it showed.

The train was stopped in time by bystanders, preventing a major accident. Bhadauriya was quickly rescued from the tracks by the police and taken to the hospital, according to eyewitnesses.

Talking about the operation date for the Vande Bharat Express, PRO Prashasti Srivastava from the Agra division of the railways said that the date will be announced soon.

The train will cover the distance between Agra and Varanasi in approximately seven hours. The return train will operate as number 20176 from Varanasi to Agra, while the Agra-Varanasi service will be number 20175.
