Chandigarh is popular in the nation for its beauty and cleanliness. People all around love to visit and stay in Chandigarh all due to its clean surroundings.

But more than achieving a tag, it’s harder to maintain it and that’s why the authorities have just got stricter.

Chandigarh Municipal Corporation has started penalising those who litter on the roads. Basically, everyone who will throw solid waste on Chandigarh’s roads will be fined heavily. A fine of Rs 10,000 has been decided for littering and Rs 5,000 for using plastic.

Reportedly, on the 1st day itself, the authorities have 45 challans each for Rs 10,000 and 40 other challans for Rs 5,000. Most of the challans have been issued to eateries and multinational restaurants.

Talking about the same, Medical Officer of Health, Amrit Pal Singh told a leading daily that their aim is not to make revenue but to create awareness.

What do you think about this step by the Chandigarh Municipal?

Kapil Sharma is indeed a famous comedian-actor but there is no denying the fact that he is also associated with some controversies; such as his fight with Sunil Grover, abusive conversation with a journalist or a tweet to the Indian Prime Minister. However, he has accepted that he was going through a tough phase and was suffering from depression when he created controversies.

Recently on Arbaaz Khan’s talk show Pinch, Kapil opens up on these controversies and also tells as to why he feels that his tweets are almost like the tweets made by the President of America, Donald Trump. He took the name of the American President when he was asked to tell about the most interesting Twitter user whom he follows.

In connection to the tweet which Kapil made to the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he says that if a person makes a tweet at 5 am, it means either he is very sad or he is drunk. He also said,

“Agar America ka President itna sab Twitter par likh sakta hai (referring to Trump’s tweet to Kim Jong Un about nuclear button) toh main toh Amritsar se aaya hu, choti choti galtiyan ho sakti hai.” (If the President of America can write this all on Twitter, I have come from Amritsar and can commit small mistakes.)

Kapil’s show The Kapil Sharma Show is doing pretty well and the ace-comedian is also very happy after getting a chance to work again.

Arbaaz Khan’s talk show Pinch is streaming online on the QuPlay YouTube channel and in this show, the celebrities talk about the trolls which make cheap and nasty comments about them.

Looking forward to see Kapil on the show!

Karan Johar is known for launching star kids but he was never slammed much for it until actress Kangana Ranaut called him the ‘flag-bearer of nepotism’ and she chose Karan Johar’s talk show for making this statement when she appeared on Koffee With Karan with his “Rangoon” co-star Saif Ali Khan.

Since then, they both have not left any chance of taking a jibe at each other and recently KJo did it once again when he attended YouTube FanFest Mumbai 2019. He appeared on the chat show Titu Talks with comedian and YouTube personality Bhuvan Bam.

Here’s what Bhuvan asked KJo,

“Optimism ka matlab hota hai positive sochna, pessimism ka matlab hota hai negative sochna aur nepotism ka matlab hota hai apno ke baare me sochna. Aapko is shabd se kyon pyaar hai?” (Optimism means positive thinking, pessimism means negative thinking and nepotism means thinking about your loved ones. Why do you love this word so much?)

Karan Johar’s reply was targeted at the “Manikarnika” actress but he made sure that he didn’t take her name.

This is what he replied,

“Mujhe ye subject pyara nahi hai, kisi aur ko ye subject bohat pyara hai aur kya bolu main, hum bolega toh bologe ki bolta hai, toh bolne ka kam maine unko saunp dia hai, kaam karne ka maine le liya hai.” (I don’t love this subject, someone else really loves this subject and what else should I say? I have assigned the task of talking to that someone and I do my job.)

Karan Johar must be quite happy as his “Kesari” starring Akshay Kumar has performed great at the box-office while Kangana is also cloud nine after the success of her movie “Manikarnika”. However recently she has been slamming many Bollywood celebs on various matters. What’s more, she also said that if “Manikarnika” doesn’t get a Filmfare award, it will be a question on their credibility.

Do let us know what you think of this nepotism debate.

With the lok Sabha elections 2019,about to start from April 11, we are presented with an official manifesto by our ruling party BJP’s strong political opposition, Congress.The election is almost knocking at every Indian citizen’s doorstep, with an honest promise of fulfilling every individual’s right to choose their own government representative and in turn also showing a possibility of power shift.

On Tuesday, Congress released their fifty five page political manifesto for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. The official release was announced in the presence of big leaders of the party. On stage we saw former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Congress President Rahul Gandhi, UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi and other senior party heads as well.

According to reports, this manifesto is a successful outcome after fifty three closed door discussion and consultations. Even one hundred and twenty one public consultations were held before that, taking in, public’s hope and aspirations. The manifesto committee was headed by former Finance Minister P Chidambaram.

Speaking during the occasion, Rahul Gandhi stated that their proposed ‘Nyay’ scheme will bring in new economical developments, which were ‘jammed’ by BJP’s infamous demonetization move. He even gave the slogan, ‘Garibi pe Waar, 72000’. His key focus are on these significant areas-

1.Kaam:Employment
2.Daam:Economy
3.Shaan:Pride
4.Sushashan:Good Governance
5.Swabhimaan:Self Esteem
6.Samman:Self Respect And Dignity

The 2019 Congress Manifesto has few highlights, describing a promising future guided by good governance, implementation of anti corruption laws and employment facilities. Rahul Gandhi made GST modification and farmer’s distress, his key focused area too.

1.NYAY
According to their 2019 manifesto, they will introduce a new scheme, called Nyuntam Aay Yojana(NYAY). Under this government sanctioned program, every year seventy two thousand will be given to the twenty percent of poorest households in India. And most significantly the woman will be receiving that amount every year.

2.Jobs
They promised to fill four lakh vacancies in the Central Government sector, including Judiciary and Parliament by March 2020. Even they will ask every State governments to fill up their estimated twenty lakh vacanies in the local bodies too.

3.Farmer’s Welfare
They stated that they will modify BJP’s failed Fasal Bima Yojana and will also introduce a new scheme by the name ‘Kisan Budget’. They will also restore the former original Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act of 2013 by bringing in a National Commission on Agriculture and Planning.

4.Education
Congress promised that they will double the annual allocation for education to six percent of GDP.

5.GST
Congress said they will share a portion of GST with the municipalities and the panchayats. They will also simplify the whole GST regime by moderating tax rates and exempting essential goods and services.

6.AFSPA
Congress even promised to review and modify the controversial AFSPA, with respect to the growing military and political tensions. They stated that they will look into the unprecedented power structure in the disturbed zones, with respect to the security forces.

7.Reservation
Congress promised a thirty three percent of seats, in the State Legislative Assemblies and even in the Lok Sabha , just for women. They will reserve seats for women in Central Government jobs too.

8.Aadhaar
Congress promises to look after the bridge in commitment with respect to the original purpose of the Aadhar Act. They will instead restrict the use of Aadhar by passing a law on privacy.

9.Anti Corruption
Congress said rather promised through their manifesto that they will create and enforce laws with respect to anti corruption.They will immediately come into force without any discrimination and will in turn investigate BJP’s several deals over the past five years.

10.Public Infrastructure and Urban Policy
Congress promised to upgrade and in turn modernize every public infrastructure including the railways. They stressed on Right to Housing and Urbanization too. They will introduce a new form of governance by a directly elected mayor with a tenure of five years.

So, keeping up with Chidambaram’s choice of words ‘how to marry wealth and welfare’, we wish for a better tomorrow.

Bollywood always has its own way of dealing with issues that are relevant, socially, politically even personally to some extent. Bollywood film and actors have always portrayed their very own way of faithfully depicting patriotism, wearing the uniform and always carrying the flag on sleeves.

Now, with recent political and military incidents that escalated the tensions even more, depicting nationalism through visualization is not only pumping the national pride but also doing their own very bits to support India, through the by lanes of the growing patriotic mood.

Now, Bollywood actor John Abraham has inspired his fans and followers on a lot of levels. He might not be under any Khan or Kapoor banner, but has proved his worth as an outstanding actor, through his collective brilliant films like Satyameva Jayate, Madras Café and Paramanu: The Story Of Pokhran.

These films, faithfully depicting true nationalism, garnered praise and support from all the corners of the film fraternity. Even, his film projects are quite relevant in the recent times. When asked about this, he said ‘It’s by default, and not by design’ that his films are patriotic. So, if they truly are, then he is quite happy about it.

John Abraham is currently gearing up for his upcoming release, RAW- Romeo Akbar Walter and also Batla House. He even said that Indians should exploit their collective choice of making more patriotic films by depicting their soldiers in a glorifying light. He said how Indians are inspired by American War Films and literally want to be a part of that as well.

He said if their government and people can do so, then why not the youngsters of our country; he even added how it was cool and tough at the same time to portray the character of a spy. For him it was crazy. He said we should accept the ‘Indianness’ and never turn our passport back for the same.

Ajay Devgn is one of the most bankable actors for the producers as his movies have been performing pretty well. His last release “Total Dhamaal” was a blockbuster and once again, he will be seen in a romantic comedy which is titled as “De De Pyaar De”. The movie will be releasing on May 17 and its trailer was released yesterday.

The trailer was liked by audiences but many were miffed after watching Alok Nath in the movie. Unless you have been living under the rock, you must be knowing that Alok Nath has been accused by Vinta Nanda of s*xually exploiting her and a case has also been registered against him. After Alok Nath got accused under #MeToo movement, the people from the film industry have stopped working with him in order to show their support to women rights and justice.

At the trailer launch, Ajay, Tabu and Rakul Preet were asked some questions by the media persons and one of the questions was related to the casting of Alok Nath in “De De Pyaar De” despite the fact that he was accused of #MeToo.

When this question was asked, Ajay tried to avoid it by saying,

“This is not the right place to talk about it. Aur jinki aap baat kar rahi hain woh film usse bahot pehle complete ho chuki thi.” (The film was completed before the allegations surfaced against the concerned person).

In this flick, Ajay plays the role of a 50 years old man who falls in love with a girl of 24, the character which is being portrayed by Rakul Preet Singh while Tabu is seen as the wife of Ajay.

When they both decide to get married, Ajay takes Rakul Preet to meet his family which includes his kids, parents and his former wife Tabu. From here, his life takes an ugly turn as both the women start a war to get him by hook or by crook.
