Modi Government Praised for General Category Quota Bill

In a very surprising move, Modi Government has introduced 10% quota/reservation in government jobs and education institutes on economic condition basis for the general category candidates. 

Bill to give 10% reservation to poor across religion, caste clears Parliament test


Modi Government is known for making surprising bold far reaching decisions and this decision is one of those. An interesting aspect of this decision is that we can't blame Modi government for making a caste-based reservation because this reservation is open to people from all other religions as well. A lot of Muslims and other minorities which used to come in General Category earlier will also benefit from it. But at the same time, it is true that a lot of General Category Hindus will benefit out of it. 

Modi government has been taking very effective decisions in the recent times and we all congratulate the government for making a bold decision once again.

Mrinal Pande - an old Congress Sympathizer

Indian Express begins 2019 with Mrinal Pande’s bigotry against Yogi Adityanath

The Mrinal Pande of today bears little resemblance to this neutrality. She takes a Congress line which is understandable given the Gandhis afforded her Padma Shri (2006), chair of Prasar Bharati head (2010) and her present position of group editorial advisor, the National Herald Group (Never mind, many of us haven’t seen a copy of its print edition in our lives. The only time we are reminded of its existence is when it’s hauled up in courts for Rs 5000-crore defamation suit by Reliance Group on Rafale lies).


Mrinal Pande is an old Congress sympathizer. She represents reminiscent of old golden days of Con party when journos, writers and editors lined up to please the royal dynasty.

Modi Govt Passes amendment to the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act

In a very welcome move, Modi Government has passed an amendment to the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act; ensuring death penalty in case of children's abuse. 

This was long due and we all thank the BJP government and PM Narendra Modi for this act: 

Union Cabinet on Friday approved an amendment to the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, seeking to ensure death penalty for aggravated sexual abuse of children. The amendment further levies heavy fine for not deleting, reporting and destroying child pornographic material. The POCSO Act, which was originally enacted in 2012, was later modified to make it as foolproof as possible.

Briefing the media, Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said, "Our children should be protected from sexual offences. Now, those taking advantage of children in heinous ways will be severely punished".

Modi Govt Passes The Muslim Women Bill 2018 Against Triple Talaq

In a very welcome move, the BJP Government has passed The Muslim Women Bill 2018 which criminalizes so called "Triple Talaq". 

The Muslim Women Bill 2018, which criminalises triple talaq, was on Thursday passed in the Lok Sabha. The bill was passed despite opposition parties, including the Congress, the AIADMK and the Samajwadi Party, staging a walkout before the voting on the bill began.

Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad replied to the debate on behalf of the government, asserting that the bill was not aimed at targeting any particular community or religion. He accused the Congress and other opposition parties of opposition the bill with the intention of protecting their votebanks.


This is a very welcome step and this will improve the life of millions of potentially impacted women in future. Triple Talaq was considered a shame by most people who care for women's rights and it is surprising how long this practice sustained itself, thanks largely to the minority vote bank politics of the Congress Party which has been in power in India most part of its post-independent history. 

With Triple Talaq gone, we can hope for more such moves being made for the Muslim Women's rights. India must serve as a good example for other nations in the neighborhood who are still plagued by archaic laws of a gone era. 

Thank you Mr. Modi and government for passing this bill.
