Today: Samajwadi Party MP Dharmendra Yadav is set to address a programme in Ambedkar Nagar district on Kanshi Ram's death anniversary, while TMC chief Mamata Banerjee misses a protest due to a flight delay.\n\nDharmendra Yadav, a senior Samajwadi Party leader and MP, plans to hold the programme in UP's Ambedkar Nagar district on the occasion of Kanshi Ram's death anniversary. The choice of the district is significant for the SP, as it has a large Dalit population and was created by the Mayawati-led BSP government in 1995. This outreach forms part of the SP's strategy amidst the BSP's declining influence in the state.\n\nHowever, TMC chief Mamata Banerjee had to abandon plans to join the INDIA bloc protest at Rajghat in Delhi. Her flight from Kolkata to Delhi was delayed due to a bomb scare at the Kolkata airport. Although she eventually reached Delhi, her flight landed too late for her to attend the protest. Mamata is scheduled to meet President Droupadi Murmu at Rashtrapati Bhavan on Friday, demanding the removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. It remains unclear whether she will participate in the protest organized by the Cockroach Janta Party on Saturday, where student wings of left-wing parties will also be present.",
