Election body registers 5 FIRs regarding money distribution in Baramati
Mumbai: The Maharashtra branch of Election Commission of India (ECI) has filed four FIRs in connection with money distribution and Pune District Central Cooperative (PDCC) Banks remain open till midnight in Baramati Lok Sabha constituency. So far, it has registered 54 cases in connection with violation of model code of conduct (MCC) across the state. They have also registered a case against Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar in Nagpur over his statement on the 26/11 terror attack. The case against Wadettiwar, who is the leader of opposition in the assembly, was based on a complaint from the BJP against his remark that then ATS chief Hemant Karkare was not killed by the bullet of terrorist Ajmal Kasab during the 26/11 attack but by one fired by a policeman close to the RSS. Wadettiwar had also called Ujjwal Nikam, the special prosecutor in the 26/11 trial and BJP Lok Sabha candidate from Mumbai North Central seat, anti national for hiding this fact. A case has also been filed against Maharashtra BJP president Chandrashekhar Bawankule. He has been booked in Thane for BJP advertisements in newspapers claiming a victory for the opposition would lead to celebrations in Pakistan. ''A total of 54 complaints were received against various political parties, and decisions were taken on 24 after investigations. Of the 54 complaints, four resulted in FIRs in Baramati (a high profile constituency which witnessed a Pawar versus Pawar battle) in connection with distribution of cash,'' Maharashtra Chief Electoral Officer S Chockalingam said in a press conference. There are 1,600 flying squads and 2,000 static surveillance teams across the state to monitor the polls, he said, adding that cash, liquor, drugs, freebies etc cumulatively valued at Rs 614.14 crore have been seized till May 9. Chockalingam said the Election Commission of India reviewed the election preparedness in Mumbai, where voting on six Lok Sabha seats will be held on May 20. The state electoral office and the election machinery here were asked to ensure the vote percentage rises in the metropolis, he added. Asked about the issue, he said the ECI alone cannot be blamed for low voter turnout. ''Political parties and the society at large is also a stakeholder. Voting percentage will not increase just by awareness. After the elections, we will study what more can be done to increase voter turnout,'' Chockalingam asserted. ''(However) compared to other states, Maharashtra has done much better. If we haven't seen an increase in turnout, the number is also not low when compared to other states,'' he claimed.

High Court Rejects Challenges to Maharashtra's Renaming of Aurangabad and Osmanabad
In a recent development, the Bombay High Court has dismissed multiple petitions contesting the Maharashtra government's move to rename Aurangabad district as Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar and Osmanabad as Dharashiv. The decision came from a division bench comprising Chief Justice D K Upadhyaya and Justice Arif Doctor, stating that the government's notification does not justify any intervention. The notification issued by the state government to rename Aurangabad and Osmanabad is deemed legal and devoid of any flaws, affirmed the bench. The petitions lacked merit and were consequently dismissed by the High Court. The Maharashtra cabinet, led by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, approved the renaming of Aurangabad to Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar and Osmanabad to Dharashiv in 2022. The process began with a Government Resolution passed by the two-member cabinet on July 16, 2022, which was then forwarded to the central government. Subsequently, in February 2023, the Union Home Ministry provided a no objection letter for the name changes. Following this, a gazette notification was issued by the state government officially renaming Aurangabad and Osmanabad. Numerous petitions were filed by residents of Aurangabad opposing the government's decision to rename their city as Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar. Similarly, 17 residents of Osmanabad filed a PIL against renaming it to Dharashiv. Both petitions alleged political motivations behind the government's actions. In response, the Maharashtra government defended its stance, asserting that the renaming was rooted in historical significance rather than political agenda.

Majority of voters support us, people to decide between those working on the ground and those running govt on Facebook: Shinde Unfazed by confusion over the split in two key parties and switchovers galore across all political forces, Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has exuded confidence that the ruling alliance is way ahead of the opposition bloc in Lok Sabha elections in the state and his single-point agenda is to achieve 'Mission-45' to help Prime Minister Narendra Modi reach his 400-plus target in the Lok Sabha elections. He also said the voters are clear in their mind about whom to choose between someone who ran his government on Facebook Live while sitting at home or those who are working on the ground. ''Nothing was happening during the previous government. The government led by Uddhav Thackeray was being run on Facebook Live. They were running the government while sitting at home. Can a government be run with the chief minister going to the secretariat for just two days?'' he alleged. Maharashtra has 48 Lok Sabha seats, the second highest after 80 in Uttar Pradesh, and the BJP-Shiv Sena-NCP alliance is targeting to win at least 45 of these seats in the ongoing polls. BJP is contesting on 28 seats, Shiv Sena on 15, Ajit Pawar-led NCP has got four and one seat has gone to Rashtriya Samaj Paksha (RSP). In an exclusive interview with PTI here at his residence, Shinde said people of Maharashtra are voting for the ruling alliance because of its good work, completion of several long-stalled projects and large-scale job creation, among other factors. In the 2019 elections, the BJP got 23 seats, the then Shiv Sena got 18 and NCP got four seats. Of these, five Shiv Sena MPs are now with the faction led by Uddhav Thackeray, while the Shinde-led Sena is now in 'Mahayuti' ruling alliance with BJP, and so is Ajit Pawar-led NCP. The opposition alliance now mainly comprises Sena's Uddhav Thackeray faction, Sharad Pawar faction of NCP and the Congress. ''We are seeing very good trends. In the initial phases of voting, our Mahayuti alliance has taken a strong lead and it will definitely get a lot more seats than others. This has happened because of the development that has taken place in our two years of government, the work we have done and the number of infrastructure projects that we have started to make Maharashtra the top state in terms of infrastructure projects,'' Shinde said. He listed various connectivity and road projects, including Atal Setu, the Nagpur-Mumbai project named after Balasaheb Thackeray, and metro projects inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. ''Large-size infrastructure projects that were stalled, all of those have resumed. Work is happening all around. Various schemes have been launched by our government for farmers, women, youth and senior citizens among others. ''Several industries are coming here and Maharashtra is becoming their top priority choice. We have emerged as an industry-friendly state and people are reposing trust in us. This will generate employment on a large scale. It's because of all this work that people are voting for us and they will vote for us in the rest of the phases also,'' Shinde said. Asked what the prime minister has told him about his vision for Maharashtra and his expectations from the state government, Shinde said, ''He (Modi) loves Maharashtra a lot. He always supports us on our development agenda.'' ''The double engine government of the Centre and state is working very well here. All our proposals, be it of railways, roads, urban development or irrigation, PM Modi is helping us a lot. He says there is a lot of potential for development in Maharashtra and we should work on that and the Centre will extend full support,'' the chief minister added. Shinde said it is the general public that benefits the most from ''this whole-hearted support for Maharashtra from PM Modi'' and therefore people are very happy, more so after they saw everything getting stalled during the earlier government. Asked how he is taking forward Balasaheb Thackeray's legacy after being recognised as the real Shiv Sena, Shinde said it is being done through the development of the state. ''Our government is the one that has been formed for the general public. When elections happened in 2019, the people's mandate was for the BJP-Shiv Sena government. But they abandoned the ideology of Balasaheb Thackeray for the greed of the chief minister's chair. ''We are now taking forward Balasaheb's ideology and that forms the foundation of this government. We got full support from our prime minister and Union home minister. The work we are doing, so many major schemes we have launched, development is the main agenda for all of that and that is the real agenda of Shiv Sena and that is what Balasaheb had dreamed of,'' he added. Asked whether the voters in the state were confused, Shinde said, ''Voters have complete clarity in their mind. They know that ours is a government that takes decisions in the public's interest.'' Giving examples, he said his government has brought out 122 irrigation-related schemes in two years, while the previous government could do just two in two-and-a-half years. ''That's the difference and people know that. Our government goes to the doorsteps of the people. Government at your doorstep is our policy,'' he added. Shinde said there were beneficiary schemes earlier too but people were not getting the benefits because the leaders used to cut the ribbon and leave the project or scheme midway. ''We decided to put all benefits under one roof. That's the difference. Who will people support, those who do the work or those who sit at home, those doing Facebook Live or those hitting the ground?'' he quipped in an apparent attack on Uddhav Thackeray.

The Pauses of Mahesh Elkunchwar
Artists do not fill their wounds so that they may speak through their work. From the essays of a newly translated collection, The Necropolis Trilogy (Copper Coin), Marathi playwright Mahesh Elkunchwar, 84, may not seem severely hurt by life; or perhaps he has let it go. When he remembers those bruises, he greets them like old friends who have remained unforgettable, or who he has let down, or who he has allowed to nest rather permanently in his subconscious. For instance, his old family retainer Bhiwa, once the centre of his childhood; actor-singer Noor Jehan whose sight and voice on screen made him come of age and around whom he built a fantasy of inviting her home at the time of Partition to his familys horror. Or, his curious relationship with the girl Mandakini. Or, the memory of having to leave home in Parwa in Vidarbha to study in big-city Nagpur and on his return, his fathers tough love, and his mothers muted, though tender reception. At a book launch in Delhi, friends and fraternity discuss Elkunchwars essays, and the significance of his nearly 60-year-long contribution to the arts. The launch is preceded by an introduction by Hindi poet Ashok Vajpeyi, who is also the director of Raza Foundation, that has co-organised the event. It is followed by reflections of poet and essayist Udayan Vajpeyi, and Sarabjeet Garcha, poet and publisher, Copper Coin, who has translated the essays from Marathi into English, on Elkunchwars work. And then there is the dramatised reading of the essays by theatre-person Sunit Tandon, even as director-actor Sohaila Kapur does a reading of a portion from his play Virasat. (L-R) Publisher Sarabjeet Garcha, theatre director Kirti Jain, playwright Mahesh Elkunchwar and poet Udayan Vajpeyi An unconventional start Elkunchwar came to the theatre late, at 28. While in college in Nagpur, he went to watch a film and, unable to get a ticket, he walked into a play that was being staged. It was his first play; films and theatre were taboo in his family. It was Vijay Tendulkars Mee jinkalo mee Haralo (I Won, I Lost), and it was being staged by director Vijaya Mehta. The experience made him find his calling; in Mehta he found a mentor. She directed his play Sultan, which he wrote in 1967. Other than his long collaboration with Mehta, he also worked closely with Satyadev Dubey, another doyen of Marathi theatre. In 1984, Govind Nihalani made Party, a Hindi film based on Elkunchwars eponymous Marathi play. Essays are like big trees Elkunchwar is one of the living legends of Indian theatre. If theatre in the 60s was dominated by playwrights such as Girish Karnad, Badal Sircar, and Tendulkar, Elkunchwar came into prominence in the following decades. Always a form-breaker, his surreal and satirical plays are socio-political commentaries on the evolution of the family and the caste-afflicted society of his state and the nation; peopled with exploiters and the exploited, tensions in Hindu-Muslim relations stew just below the surface in many of his plays. In The Necropolis Trilogy essays, he recalls images, music, personalities and architecture dear to the subcontinent and lost to time; they are thus a stare into the abyss, but also a spring back for an excavation so that their outlines stay visible just as much as his plays like Wada Chirebandi (1985), written 35 years ago, that still speak to our times. No one is returning to the wada or ancestral home anymore, we like being big-city girls and boys now. Govind Nihalanis film based on Elkunchwars Marathi play Party Udayan Vajpeyi points out that no language is lost, it goes into hibernation, and so does civilisation. A song is also an expression of language. It is a consolation that in these times when the memory of so many things are dying, essays such as Elkunchwars are like big trees. Trees have secrets, but you have to stay with that tree. The first essay in The Necropolis Trilogy receives attention from most speakers at the event. Located in almost a massive graveyard outside Karachi, here Bhiwa, Meena Kumari and Medusa, Emily Dickinson, one of his musesthe book opens with her poem and even Elkunchwars sister-in-law step in, as if in a dream, to fade out without preamble after saying their piece. What they (or Elkunchwar) leave in is as important as what they leave out just like things unsaid or half-said in real life. Collapsing dimensions Elkunchwar began writing essays in the 1990s. They became popular, so he says he thought he must break the mould. The search began with time and space. At a certain age you live in so many realities. I inhabit the reality of my dreams, of my mundane life, but if you are an artist you try to get rid of these (separate) dimensions, of what is real and unreal, and try to reach a place where the dimensions collapse. I cant destroy time and space but I can restructure them. I realised I could talk to my memories. Mandakini in Melbourne and a bather, who looks like [Italian actor] Marcello Mastroianni, are more real than all my realities. What is important is the reorganisation of experience not memories. I dont chew the cud of my memory, he says. The evening also sees Elkunchwar making light of the famed silences and pauses in his plays. On being asked by theatre director Kirti Jain to explain them, he says the credit for that goes to Tendulkar whose economy in dialogues he admired. He then refers to the experience of staging Party. Party had many characters. Once while writing it, the dialogue was not going anywhere so I wrote a dialogue but kept the next dialogue completely unconnected to what had gone before. Actors reading the script read a pause in that disconnection. At times, actors and directors see a pause in the script, they find a meaning for it, so sometimes theres an actual pause but it can also get created.

Patna emerges as India's most flood-prone city, reveals recent study
Patna emerges as India's most flood-prone city, reveals recent study Patna experiences the worst floods in India, followed by West Bengal's Murshidabad and Maharashtra's Thane, according to a district-level flood severity index (DFSI) developed by researchers at IIT-Delhi and IIT-Roorkee. The index takes into account the historical severity of floods based on the number of affected people, the spread and duration of floods. The researchers said the top 10 districts where flood severity is the highest are: Patna, Murshidabad, Thane, North 24 Parganas (West Bengal), Guntur (Andhra Pradesh), Nagpur (Maharashtra), Gorakhpur (Uttar Pradesh), Ballia (Uttar Pradesh), East Champaran (Bihar), and East Medinipur (West Bengal). These are followed by Muzaffarnagar (Bihar), Lakhimpur (Assam), Kota (Rajasthan), Aurangabad (Maharashtra), Malda (West Bengal), Rajkot (Gujarat), Prayagraj (Uttar Pradesh), Aurangabad (Bihar), Bahraich (Uttar Pradesh), Ahmedabad (Gujarat), Jalpaiguri (West Bengal), Darjeeling (West Bengal), Dibrugarh (Assam), Azamgarh (Uttar Pradesh), Chamoli (Uttarakhand), West Champaran (Bihar), Amravati (Maharashtra), Medinipur West (West Bengal), and Samastipur (Bihar). Though Chamoli in Uttarakhand does not face recurrent floods, it appears on this list because of a few isolated highly damaging flood events. Among the 30 districts facing the highest risk of floods, 17 are in the Ganga basin and three are in the Brahmaputra basin. Among all the Indian river basins, the Ganga basin has the highest population, and its high flood proneness is worrisome, said the researchers, including Manabendra Saharia, an assistant professor at IIT-Delhi. Assam experiences the highest number of floods in India, having faced more than 800 flood events over 56 years. The other flood-prone states, in descending order of flood events, include Kerala, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, and Maharashtra. Data from 1967 to 2023 shows that Thiruvananthapuram has experienced more than 231 floods or more than four events per year on average. Five districts -- Thiruvananthapuram, Lakhimpur, Dhemaji, Kamrup, and Nagaon -- have been categorised as ''severely flood-prone,'' having recorded more than 178 floods, or more than three events per year on average. The researchers said localised intense rainfall events are likely to rise in the future due to climate change, and therefore, more flash floods are expected. Under the warming climate, the frequency of cyclones will increase, and coastal and nearby inland areas will face more instances of intense rainfall and floods. It is also likely that areas that are not currently flood-prone may begin to see flooding. The researchers said human fatality due to floods is nearly stable or has come down in recent times due to better management despite an increase in the population in India. The number of deaths is around 1,000 per year since 2015, the data showed.

Nagpur illustrator alleges EC used his artwork without consent
KOCHI: Rohan Chakravarty, an illustrator based in Nagpur, has taken to social media alleging that the Election Commission (EC) has without permission used one of his artworks in their banners to promote voting in the Andaman and Nicobar archipelago, especially among the tribals. The illustration of the Nicobar Megapode, a bird endemic to the archipelago, adorns the EC banners front and centre. The text underneath this image reads The Election Mascot. The image bears an uncanny resemblance to a work that Rohan has done in a series dedicated to bringing more awareness about species (animals and birds) vulnerable to extinction. Nicobar Megapode or scrubfowl is one such species. But Rohan maintains that he has not given anyone permission to use this artwork. Basically, the Election Commission has ripped off my work. Neither have I received any payment for this nor has anyone approached me for permission, he told TNIE. An independent artist, Rohans works have in the past found their way to the pages of national newspapers and as an effective medium to champion social causes by various organisations. Several works of mine are commissioned by the Forest department to spearhead their conservation and wildlife programmes. However, the Nicobar Megapode work is not among them, clarifies Rohan, whos been working as an artist for the past 14 years. Apparently, the EC is not the first one to use his works without consent. If anyone knows how to sue the Election Commission, please let me know, Rohan had vented his despair on social media after learning about this latest rip-off. The EC had used his work to champion voting among members of the Shompen tribe in the Andaman and Nicobar last month. The native islanders were casting their votes for the first time. Though TNIE tried to contact the Chief Electoral Officer in the archipelago, he was unavailable for comment.
