BJP-RSS wants country to wear uniform: Jairam Ramesh
Bengaluru: The BJP and the RSS want the country to wear the uniform by implementing the 'one country-one poll' policy, said Congress senior leader and MP Jairam Ramesh.
He was speaking at a symposium regarding simultaneous elections for Lok Sabha and Assembly organized by ‘Samanjas’ in Bengaluru on Thursday.
There are many languages and cultures in the country. Each state has a different political atmosphere. Meanwhile, Jairam Ramesh, who said that there was no meaning in the ‘one country-one election’ policy, said if this policy comes into existence the country will go in the hands of capitalists.
Hitler Policy: Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi issued the GST and called for a 'one country-one tax.' And now he is calling for one country-one election. In Germany in 1930, Hitler had called for a ‘one culture, one race, and one leader’ policy. PM Modi is going to implement such a system in India, Jairam Ramesh strongly criticized.
Rajya Sabha member KC Ramamurthy, Congress' Prof K. Radhakrishna, Muralidhar Halappa, Samanjas advisor Nataraj Gowda, Manjunath Adde, SA Ahmed, Arun Malnad were present.

Three company directors held in Rs 100-crore investment fraud in Kochi
Kochi (Kerala) (PTI): Police on Sunday arrested three directors of a firm accused of cheating hundreds of investors of over Rs 100 crore through a fake investment scheme linked to agricultural tourism here, officials said.
The accused were identified as Muraleedharan, Ashik Murali and Akhil Murali, all natives of Thrissur.
The arrests were made by the Kalamassery police in connection with a fraud involving ATCOS (Agri Tourism Cooperative Society), a firm headquartered at Pathadipalam here.
Police said the company had promised high returns by collecting investments from the public in the agricultural tourism sector, but allegedly cheated hundreds of people and fled with the money.
ATCOS was registered under the Multi-State Cooperative Societies Act and operated 13 branches across various districts in Kerala, besides a branch in Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu, officials said.
When investors failed to receive their promised returns or the invested amount, complaints were filed with the police.
Officials said around 54 cases have been registered against the firm in 32 police stations across the state, including 29 cases at the Kalamassery police station alone.
Following instructions from Kochi City Police Commissioner K S Mahesh Kumar, a special investigation team was formed under the supervision of Deputy Commissioner of Police (Law and Order) Shehensha and Thrikkakara ACP Manoj Kumar.
The team traced the accused to an apartment in Amala Nagar in Thrissur, where they had been hiding after secretly renting the flat, officials said.
The bank accounts of the accused have been frozen, and steps have been initiated to trace their assets, officials said.
Police also conducted a raid at the company’s office at Pathadipalam and seized several documents related to the case.
The accused were produced before the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court in Kalamassery, which remanded them to judicial custody and sent them to Kakkanad jail.
Police said they would seek the custody of the accused for further interrogation as the investigation continues.
