AP Cabinet Prepares for Paperless Meetings: CM Chandrababu Pushes for Technology Adoption

Amaravati: The Andhra Pradesh Cabinet is set to embrace a paperless approach in its meetings, with Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu leading the initiative. Known for his strong interest in leveraging technology, CM Chandrababu has decided to equip all ministers with iPads to facilitate this transition.

In a recent Cabinet meeting, CM Chandrababu announced that all upcoming meetings would be conducted through a paperless method. This move marks a revival of the e-Cabinet meetings first introduced by Chandrababu in 2014. However, the practice was discontinued by the subsequent YSRCP government.

Traditionally, Cabinet meetings have required officials to print at least 40 sets of documents based on the agenda items. The shift to paperless e-Cabinet meetings is expected to eliminate this need, with agenda details being directly uploaded to the ministers’ iPads.

The government anticipates that this high-tech approach will lead to substantial savings in printing costs. Additionally, the e-Cabinet system is designed to enhance security by preventing the leakage of Cabinet notes.

Jogi Ramesh warned Chandrababu `You too have children’

Senior YCP leader and former minister Jogi Ramesh took severe exception for ACB raids on his house and arrest of his son Rajiv in Agri Gold lands scam. Alleging that Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu made his son, who had studied in foreign countries, a victim for his politics. He warned that it will not end here. “Remember you too have children. We too will get a time”, he threatened.

After his son’s arrest, Jogi Ramesh alleged that the Red Book Constitution is running in AP. He asserted that his son has not done anything wrong and he is prepared for a public debate on the Agrigold Lands issue. He also said that they are ready for any action. “I am ready for any action if our family is proved involved in this scam”, he said.

Since the ACB officials started searches at his house early morning and  arrested his son Jogi Rajeev, the case has been taking shocking turns.   ACB officials said that Rajiv played a key role in this scam and are investigating.

It seems that the officials who have moved him to Gollapudi ACB office are  conducting a thorough investigation. Speaking to the media, ACB Additional SP Soumyalatha revealed shocking things about this entire affair.

“There have been irregularities in the case of Agrigold lands. Today we arrested two persons.The survey numbers of Agrigold lands were also changed. In the investigation of the ACB officials, the irregularities were found to be true. We are also bringing the report of the CID officials”.

“Agrigold’s assets are under CID attachment. In our investigation, we have registered cases under the PC Act. Government officials are guilty in this case. That is why we are conducting our investigation separately. We will explain the investigation reports of CID and ACB officials to the superiors”, she added.

She said that during their investigation they have identified five names as accused and some more names may be added during the course of investigation. Moreover, she said that a thorough probe will be conducted on the role of Jogi Ramesh in this entire scam and a case will be booked against him also if allegations are proved.

She said that they have started an investigation after receiving a complaint from Abba Sesha Narayana and registered a case after finding that illegal registrations have taken place. According to her, they bought land in Survey No 88 and changed it to Survey No 87.  It all happened as a conspiracy to manage village and mandal surveyors.  Surveyor Ramesh and Jogi Rajeev were arrested.

High Court Transfer Kolkata Doctor Rape-Murder Case To CBI

Calcutta HC has ordered CBI probe in the case of the alleged rape and murder of a 31-year-old junior doctor who was found dead in a seminar hall at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata on Friday. Calcutta HC has also directed police to hand over all documents related to the woman doctor murder case to CBI by 10 am on Wednesday and urged agitating doctors to call off ceasework, saying they have a ‘pious obligation’.

The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has taken suo motu cognizance of the reported death in the mysterious circumstances. Healthcare services have been hit in the national capital amid the doctors’ protests at AIIMS Delhi — the largest Out-Patient Department (OPD) crowd —  that caters to 10,000 patients a day, saw a 20 per cent reduction in registrations. 

Protests also hit the other major hospitals in Delhi and Pune, King George’s Medical Universityin Lucknow, and the Sawai Man Singh Medical College in Jaipur. In Uttarakhand, doctors are continuing their work, owing to recent natural disasters in the state. However, they are wearing a black arm band as a mark of solidarity.

Pronouncing the judgment, A division bench of Chief Justice T.S. Sivagnanam and Justice Hiranmay Bhattacharya observed that there has been “no significant progress in the investigation”. “It is disheartening to note that the principal of the hospital was not proactive. It is on record that he resigned and it is unclear as to what orders were passed. Rather in the shortest possible time, he was made principal of another college.”

The bench came down heavily on the principal of the college and said the state government could have avoided appointing him to another college given the circumstances in which he tendered the resignation. “When the deceased was a doctor in the same hospital, it is surprising why the principal did not lodge a complaint. This gives rise to suspicion,” the bench observed.

“Instead of relieving him, he was appointed as head of another college. It is not clear what tearing hurry there was to appoint him again. Many submissions have been made about him being a powerful person however these aspects are not gone into,” the bench said.

The Court had directed the principal to go on long leave during the hearing earlier today. The bench directed that the principal must not be allowed to hold the principal’s post until further notice.

Dr Swamy Asks Is Modi Blackmailed By Sonia In Rahul’s British Passport Issue?

Former Union Minister Dr. Subramanian Swamy known for his sharp intellect and fierce criticism, is known for locking several high-profile political leaders into litigation. It was his petition that led former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalitha to be jailed in a disproportionate assets case.

Once a staunch supporter of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has turned a bitter critic nowadays after realizing he has no place in his government or the BJP.

Besides his criticism of Modi’s economic and security policies, particularly the government’s silence of Chinese encroachment of over 4,000 kms of Indian soil on the border, he is now taking task for the government’s alleged silence over his allegation of Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi having a British citizenship, violating Indian laws.

According to Swamy, Rahul Gandhi holds British citizenship, a narration that would render him ineligible to participate in Indian politics. Swamy claims to have irrefutable evidence that Rahul Gandhi, under the alias ‘Raul Vinci,’ served as a director for a UK-based company, thus compromising his Indian citizenship.

He has gone so far as to accuse Modi and Shah of protecting Rahul Gandhi, alleging that Sonia Gandhi, Rahul’s mother and a powerful figure within the Congress, has blackmailed the BJP leadership with threats of nationwide unrest if action is taken against her son, Rahul Gandhi.

Swamy took to X (formerly Twitter) and shared a picture of a document which he said is the annual return Rahul filed with the UK government as a British citizen. He further questioned PM Narendra Modi and targeted Sonia Gandhi asking if the latter was “blackmailing” the PM for not taking action.

“This is Rahul Gandhi’s Annual Return filed with the British Government as a British citizen. Is Modi blackmailed by Sonia to not take action?” Swamy said on X while sharing the picture.

Despite these claims, which date back to 2003, Swamy has refrained from pursuing legal action against Rahul Gandhi. Instead, he has taken his case to the court of public opinion, leveraging social and mainstream media to sow doubt and confusion among the masses.

This dramatic shift has led to widespread criticism of Swamy. Former allies and critics alike have accused him of betraying the public trust and misleading the nation.

CID probe To Be Initiated Into TDR Bonds scam!

Chandrababu Naidu government is contemplating to initiate CID probe into TDR bonds scam. Municipal Administration minister Dr P Narayana brought this matter to the notice of the Chief Minister stating that it needs more in-depth investigation.

The government hopes that the identity of the real masterminds will come to light only if the CID is investigated. There are serious allegations against former minister Karumuri in the TDR bond scam.

Minister Narayana explained to CM Chandrababu how the Tanuku TDR Bonds scam happened. As the matter is in court, the government has decided to take legal opinion. The municipal administration department and the anti-corruption department found that bonds worth Rs. 754 crore  were issued in Tanuku Municipality.

ACB found that there were irregularities to the tune of Rs 691 crore. Government sources are surprised at the procedure followed for issuing bonds. During land acquisition, the government recognized that land was calculated in square yards for issuing bonds.

They wondered that after deciding Rs 55 lakh per acre, bonds were issued at the rate of Rs 10 crore per acre.  The government has already suspended three persons including the Municipal Commissioner in this matter.

The government has initiated an internal inquiry on the TDR bonds issued between 2019-24 across the state. On the other hand, the government is working on new guidelines on TDP bonds soon. A team of officials are examining systems being followed in many states to formulate a system that can curb irregularities.

During the YSRCP rule, there were large-scale irregularities in the issuance of TDP bonds. There are many allegations against YSRCP leaders. That is why the officials are traveling and studying in Delhi, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Telangana and Haryana on the best practices in issuing bonds where there is no scope for corruption.

Apart from this, the process of giving permissions for new houses and building constructions will be implemented online. During the YSRCP regime, the online system was converted into a platform for illegal collections. With this, the coalition government is looking to simplify the permits.

Providing security To YS Jagan on par with Chief Minister, says Home Minister

Home Minister Vangalapudi Anita has strongly refuted YCP accusations that the government is neglecting and reducing security of former Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy. She asserted that he is being given security at the level of a Chief Minister, that he is no more a Chief Minister.

She wondered why he was afraid of his security. Is he fearing that people will beat him if he comes to the public?, she asked. She visited Rajahmundry Central Prison and opened the newly established restaurant and box crickets in the jail.

She turn emotional after visiting Sneha Barrack, where Chief Minister Chandrababy Naidu was kept during the regime of the previous government. She said that no one should be in a situation where innocent people go to jail.

Enquiring about prisoners’ welfare in the jail, she said that it was painful for the prisoners to be punished for the mistakes they made in a moment of time. Stating that many prisoners are asking about announcing amnesty to their on their good behaviour in the prisons.

The Home Minister said that the previous government had ignored providing amnesty to the prisoners. She assured that the government will take a decision on it very soon. She expressed concern that the prisons are overcrowded beyond their capacity.

She said that prisons were built during the British era and the wall of the jail is on the verge of collapse. She ordered immediate repairs.

She said that most of the prisoners in Visakhapatnam prison are in ganja cases. While there are 1700 prisoners are there across the state in ganja cases, 1,000 of them are in Visakhapatnam only and only 376 in Rajahmundry.  Anitha assured jail staff that they will be provided health security at par with the police personnel.  She also interacted with women prisoners and asked about their problems.
