Delhi Confidential: Mamata Banerjee’s ‘fight against sound’; Congress to engage with state units on SIR row
Delhi Confidential delves into the latest political happenings in India. Mamata Banerjee, former West Bengal chief minister, was scheduled to speak at a press conference at her nephew's residence in Delhi, but her voice was muffled by a neighbor's lawn mower. Upon her insistence to "fight the sound," a staffer intervened, asking the operator to cease the noise.
The Congress party is also in action, planning to convene state units across India to discuss matters related to the Election Commission of India. A meeting of all state units is set for October 5, with Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge, and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra expected to preside over the discussion. The focus will be on addressing issues surrounding the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) deletions and the Central Election Commission (CEC) role.
Meanwhile, Jal Shakti Minister C R Patil went beyond the usual office cleanliness drives by personally cleaning the Yamuna's Kalindi Kunj Ghat, along with his deputy and senior officials.
