Is Sourav Ganguly’s wife Dona going to Rajya Sabha? after Amit Shah’s dinner has intensified speculation

Various sources are speculating that Dona Ganguly will be nominated to the Rajya Sabha by the President. Dona Ganguly is the wife of former Team India captain Sourav Ganguly. The speculation began after Union Home Minister Amit Shah had dinner at Sourav Ganguly’s house.

We would like to tell you that Dona has been trained in Odissi dance. Her classical dance career continues internationally. According to Dilip Ghosh, the BJP‘s National Vice President, Dona Ganguly was mentioned in a conversation with journalists on Monday.

Reporters were told that Dilip Ghosh, a Rajya Sabha member from a wide range of fields, nominated eminent people from different fields. We would be delighted if he nominated someone from West Bengal as well. Moreover, he said it would be better if a West Bengal such as Dona Ganguly was nominated by the President to join the Rajya Sabha. State chief of the Bharatiya Janata Party Sukanta Majumdar declined to comment.

The matter is an internal party matter, so speaking to the media is not appropriate, according to Sukant Majumdar. The central leadership is the sole authority in such matters. Sourav Ganguly would be a good fit for the Rajya Sabha, he said. Former journalist Swapna Dasgupta from West Bengal and Rajya Sabha member Roopa Ganguly are both about to finish their terms. Former Union Home Minister Amit Shah was recently in West Bengal for a three-day visit. As part of this, Amit Shah visited Sourav Ganguly’s Kolkata residence on May 6 for dinner.

On May 6, Home Minister Amit Shah dined at Sourav Ganguly’s house

According to a BJP associate, Amit Shah, Sukant Majumdar, and Shubhendu Adhikari, the leader of the opposition in the West Bengal Assembly, dined at Sourav Ganguly’s house. Dona Ganguly was discussed as a potential candidate for the Rajya Sabha. A dance performance by Dona Ganguly was held at the Victoria Memorial the same day. Home Minister Amit Shah was also present. The two had arrived for dinner at Dona Ganguly’s house with him.

Agra: What is the petition regarding the Taj Mahal, the secret of 22 rooms, know the full details of the dispute

The Taj Mahal of Agra is also being discussed in connection with the Gyanvapi Masjid-Kashi Vishwanath Temple dispute of Varanasi. An application was filed in the Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High Court regarding the Taj Mahal, which urged the opening of 22 rooms of the Taj Mahal so that it may be determined if there were any idols and inscriptions of gods and goddesses inside?

This ancient monument, built in a unique style of Persian, Indian, and Islamic architecture, is said to be a testament to love. It was built in memory of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan’s wife Mumtaz along the banks of the Yamuna. Despite the Taj Mahal‘s beauty, there have been so many disputes surrounding it.

In 1666, Shah Jahan died, but the controversy continued. There were rumors that the Taj Mahal was actually Tejo Mahalaya and was the focal point of the Hindu religion. One such voice has arisen again. A petition has been filed by Rajneesh Singh, media in-charge of BJP in Ayodhya at the Lucknow Bench of Allahabad High Court.

Mansingh’s Palace Logic

The petitioner has asked that the Archaeological Survey of India be allowed to open 22 rooms inside the Taj Mahal to discover whether Hindu sculptures and inscriptions are hidden within. Rajneesh Singh’s lawyer Rudra Vikram Singh says that all travelers who came in 1600 AD mention Mansingh’s palace in their travel descriptions.

It was said that the Taj Mahal was built in 1653 and that Aurangzeb wrote in 1651 that Ammi’s tomb needed to be repaired, on the basis of all such facts now needs to be clarified: what’s inside the 22 closed rooms of the Taj Mahal?

Demand has been made from the High Court that the government should form an ASI and historians fact-finding committee to submit a report on this matter. As soon as this petition was filed, politics erupted. According to Congress, the BJP deliberately diverts attention from important concerns.

It has come to our attention that a few days ago, the Peethadheeshwar Acharya Paramhans of the Ascetic Camp in Ayodhya was also banned from entering the town. The controversy had already deepened when activists of some Hindu parties read Hanuman Chalisa inside the Taj Mahal.

Where did the controversy begin

The controversy over the Taj Mahal began with the publication of the book ‘True Story of Taj’ by historian PN Oak. A lot of claims were made in this book regarding the Taj Mahal being a Shiva temple. A few historians claim the Taj Mahal has 22 rooms under the main mausoleum and the jasmine floors that have been closed.

It is believed that there are stairs up and down the jasmine floor to lead into the basement towards the Yamuna’s edge. An iron net has been placed over these to close them. Until about 45 years ago, access to the stairs was open. This petition has been filed to open the 22 rooms.

Effect of Yogi Government order, 125 loudspeakers were removed; Sound slowed down at 17000 places

Over the last few months, loudspeakers across the country have been the subject of debate. The Yogi government in Uttar Pradesh has taken steps to remove illegal loudspeakers from religious sites. Over 125 loudspeakers have already been removed, and 17,000 people have taken voluntary steps to lower the volume of loudspeakers in response to the government’s order.

125 loudspeakers removed

Avneesh Awasthi, Additional Chief Secretary for Home, told PTI, “An order was issued on Saturday removing loudspeakers from places of worship in the state.” The districts have been asked to submit a compliance report by April 30.

‘Police are to coordinate and communicate with religious leaders in order to remove illegal loudspeakers,’ he said. ADG Law and Order Prashant Kumar described steps taken so far including the removal of 125 loudspeakers and while 17 thousand individuals have reduced the volume of their own loudspeakers.

CM Yogi ordered

Since Eid falls on April 19 and Akshaya Tritiya falls on the same day, as well as other important religious festivals in the next few days, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has directed that microphones be used during festivals. The sound should remain within the premises, though.

According to him, public events and locations should not be obstructed by loudspeakers to avoid inconvenience to others. It was said by CM Yogi that no procession/religious procession should be taken out without the permission of the organizer and that an affidavit should be obtained before permission can be granted.

His opinion is that permission should only be given to religious procession events that are traditional; no new events should be given permission unnecessarily. There have been new orders for loudspeakers not only in UP but also in other states of the country.
