Alva, 80, has been a member of the Indian National Congress (INC). She will be up against Jagdeep Dhankar, 71, the current serving governor of West Bengal. Margaret Alva’s name as the vice-presidential candidate was announced by Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) supremo Sharad Pawar on Sunday. The announcement came a day after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) announced its vice-presidential candidate. ,India will elect its vice president on August 6. Nominations have began on July 5 and the last date for filing nominations is July 19. Alva was the first woman to have served as the governor of Uttarakhand. She later became the governor of Rajasthan. Dhankar has had three terms in the Rajya Sabha and one term in the Lok Sabha. She was a Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs from 1984 to 1985. ,Her contest will be with Jagdeep Dhankhar. Dhankhar, 71, has often courted controversy as the Governor of West Bengal. Considered proximate to the Sangh Parivar, Dhankhar's tiffs with West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has often made national headlines. The announcement of Dhankhar as the vice presidential nominee saw a muted response from the Trinamool and Mamata Banerjee. ,While the vice presidential elections will be held on August 6, the presidential elections will be held on July 18. For the President of India post, the two contenders are Droupadi Murmu and Yashwant Singh. ,Droupadi Murmu, who has served as the only governor of Jharkhand to have finished a full term, is the Bharatiya Janata Party's presidential nominee. Hailing from a tribal family in Odisha, Murmu being elected India's President would give the world's largest democracy its first Adivasi President. ,Yashwant Singh is the Opposition's presidential candidate. Associated with the BJP for a long time, Yashwant Singh broke ranks by criticising the BJP under Narendra Modi. He later joined Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"28.6139","longitude":"77.209","name":"New Delhi, Delhi, India","city":"New Delhi"},"keywords":"Margaret Alva,Rajasthan,the Indian National Congress (INC,Jagdeep Dhankar,West Bengal,Nationalist Congress Party,NCP,Sharad Pawar,the Bharatiya Janata Party,India","originalPublishedOn":"2022-07-17T17:30:01+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"8lAjYxjKeo5Y","slug":"english/aap-announces-support-for-yashwant-sinha-in-presidential-polls","slugV2":"india/aap-announces-support-for-yashwant-sinha-in-presidential-polls-702706/","title":"AAP announces support for Yashwant Sinha in presidential polls","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_vukvq0C2p.jpg","coverCaption":"Droupadi Murmu (left) and Yashwant Sinha (right) (Photo Credit: Twitter)","reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-07-16T15:20:00+05:30","highlightSummary":"\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eAAP said it will support the Opposition’s consensus candidate\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eThe party said it respects Droupadi Murmu but will support Sinha\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIndia’s 2022 presidential polls will be between Droupadi Murmu and Yashwant Sinha\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e","highlightSummaryFlag":1,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":1,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":2,"content":"{\\\"time\\\":1657962982623,\\\"strCount\\\":3095,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/india/in-punjab-dawn-of-arvind-kejriwal-as-a-national-leader-300242/\\\\\\\"\u003eArvind\\\\nKejriwal\u003c/a\u003e-led \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/wires/presstrustofindia/presidential-polls-aap-throws-its-lot-with-yashwant-sinha-702679/\\\\\\\"\u003eAam Aadmi Party (AAP)\u003c/a\u003e, in power in \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/topics/delhi/\\\\\\\"\u003eDelhi\u003c/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/topics/punjab/\\\\\\\"\u003ePunjab\u003c/a\u003e, has decided\\\\nto support Opposition candidate \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/india/who-is-yashwant-sinha-oppositions-pick-for-indias-next-president-485729/\\\\\\\"\u003eYashwant Sinha\u003c/a\u003e in the upcoming presidential\\\\npolls.

Also Read | 'Unnatural coalition': Eknath Shinde replies to Uddhav Thackeray's emotional address,When Maharashtra Governor Bharat Singh Koshiyari called Fadnavis’ BJP to form the government, considering it was the single-largest party, BJP said it did not have the numbers. It was at that time when Uddhav Thackeray asked his member of Parliament, Arvind Sawant, to resign from the Narendra Modi cabinet, effectively ending a three-decade-long partnership with the BJP. ,On November 12, President’s Rule was imposed in Maharashtra as parties could not reach an agreement on how to govern the state. This was when Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress had started working out a common minimum programme to govern the state. As the arrangement started to take shape, a potential for stability seemed in the horizon. But that wasn’t to be. At least not just yet. ,At midnight on November 23, Ajit Pawar, NCP chief Sharad Pawar’s nephew, in a sudden move, extended support to the BJP. At 05:47 am, president’s rule was withdrawn and at 08:00 am, Devendra Fadnavis was sworn in as chief minister and Ajit Pawar as deputy chief minister. The move threw a spanner in the works of the ‘Maha Vikas Aghadi’ – the Shiv Sena, NCP, Congress coalition. ,An alliance between these three political parties had to be born out of extreme political necessity. As ideologies go, Shiv Sena and Congress are on two ends of the political spectrum and NCP somewhere in the middle. However, the political contests in rural Maharashtra are primarily between Shiv Sena and NCP. Thus, while a political deal was being worked out, political workers in the lower rung had their doubts about the sustainability of such a coalition. When Ajit Pawar decided to support the BJP, Sharad Pawar said this was his own decision and the party was not in agreement with Ajit. On the day the new Fadnavis-Pawar government was called to prove its majority in the House, the duo resigned. Meanwhile, Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress had decided on a governance structure and Uddhav Thackeray was decided to be the chief minister. ,A semblance of sanity returned in Maharashtra with a government in place. The next two years would see the COVID-19 pandemic that would wreak havoc in the state. From the crisis at hand, Maharashtra emerged but its government had weakened. Uddhav Thackeray was forced to be away from affairs of the government because of a spine surgery. Sharad Pawar was giving birth to stillborn conceptions of opposition unity. And the BJP was biding time for what critics call its ‘Operation Lotus’. Trouble came to Maha Vikas Aghadi’s doors when the BJP won five out of 10 seats in the Rajya Sabha elections. Narendra Modi’s party was expected to win four but ended up winning five on account of cross-voting. Behind this cross-voting was Shiv Sena MLA Eknath Shinde. ,Shinde falls in the second rung of Shiv Sena leaders, just after the Thackerays. A working-class political activist who found his way into politics through Shiv Sena legend Anand Dighe, Shinde turned incommunicado after the Rajya Sabha polls. He emerged after days at a hotel in Gujarat’s Surat where he had secured the support of some Shiv Sena MLAs and was throwing an open challenge to Uddhav Thackeray. ,For Shinde to avoid falling into the deep pit of India’s anti-defection law, he needed to secure the support of 37 MLAs, two-thirds of the total number of MLAs of the party. While trying to secure the support, Shinde received a call from Uddhav Thackeray. The 10-minute call prompted him to pack up from Surat check-in into Guwahati’s Radisson Blu hotel. By Thursday evening, Shinde is said to have secured the support of around 40 MLAs. ,Eknath Shinde says he does not want to split the Shiv Sena. He said that Shiv Sena is about Hindutva and the party should form a government with BJP and rule Maharashtra. For Shinde, the Maha Vikas Aghadi is an unnatural coalition. Uddhav Thackeray and his supporters, however, don’t seem keen on the idea. ,While the situation is developing still with Shiv Sena spokesperson Sanjay Raut trying to keep the conversation alive, Uddhav has already left the chief minister’s residence and has gone to ‘Matoshree’ – the family home of the Thackerays. The situation is Maharashtra continues to develop with every possibility still on the table. Politics remains a game of numbers and numbers will seal the fate of Maharashtra.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"28.6139","longitude":"77.209","name":"New Delhi, Delhi, India","city":"Delhi"},"keywords":"Shiv Sena,Maharashtra,BJP,Uddhav Thackeray,NCP,Congress,Shinde,the Shiv Sena,Ajit Pawar,NDA,Devendra Fadnavis,Fadnavis,India,Sharad Pawar,Maharashtra Assembly","originalPublishedOn":"2022-06-24T12:40:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"qhox2m1psUoG","slug":"english/amid-maharashtra-crisis-tmc-protest-surrounds-eknath-shinde-in-assam","slugV2":"india/amid-maharashtra-crisis-tmc-protest-surrounds-eknath-shinde-in-assam-685187/","title":"Amid Maharashtra crisis, TMC protest surrounds Eknath Shinde in Assam","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_HU4ByzdCn.jpg","coverCaption":"Assam's Trinamool cadre protests outside the hotel where Eknath Shinde is staying with other rebel Shiv Sena MLAs (Photo Credit: Twitter/@ANI)","reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-06-23T14:40:00+05:30","highlightSummary":"\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eAssam’s Trinamool supporters demonstrated outside Eknath Shinde’s hotel\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eThe Maharashtra government is at risk of falling soon\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eEknath Shinde, rebel Shiv Sena MLA, has reportedly gained support of 40 MLAs\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e","highlightSummaryFlag":1,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":1,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":2,"content":"{\\\"time\\\":1655972561636,\\\"strCount\\\":2457,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/india/who-is-eknath-shinde-683525/\\\\\\\"\u003eEknath Shinde\u003c/a\u003e has\\\\nmoved to a hotel in \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/topics/assam/\\\\\\\"\u003eAssam\u003c/a\u003e capital \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/topics/guwahati/\\\\\\\"\u003eGuwahati\u003c/a\u003e with fellow rebel MLAs while a plans\\\\nto stage a coup in \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/topics/maharashtra/\\\\\\\"\u003eMaharashtra\u003c/a\u003e.

The premier Indian agency probing financial crime, the Enforcement Directorate has often been accused of being used as a tool in the hands of the government to curtail or intimidate the opposition. Over the last five years, however, the anti-graft body has seen a significant uptick in convictions. Intimidating the opposition? ,On Monday June 13, Rahul Gandhi is responding to the ED’s summons in New Delhi. He reached the Enforcement Directorate office along with supporters in what is being described as a show of strength. Chaos prevailed on the streets as police detained many Congress workers. The Enforcement Directorate will question Rahul Gandhi on the National Herald case. Sonia Gandhi has also been summoned in the case, but owing to her testing positive for COVID, she has been given more time and summoned on June 23. The Congress sees ED’s actions against the grand-old-party’s senior leaders as an act of political vendetta to stifle the opposition. Congress spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala said on Monday morning that the police barricading the whole of Delhi “proves that the government fears us.”,“No one can oppress us, neither could the English nor can these new oppressors. We will march till the ED’s office, we will choose Gandhi’s path, we will fight for the rights of the poor. The Congress is the voice of the common man for 136 years,” he said. ,ED’s goal and role,The Enforcement Directorate was formed in 1957 to investigate foreign exchange related violations.

Meanwhile, former Uttar Pradesh CM Akhilesh Yadav and Jammu and Kashmir leader Farooq Abdullah have also run into trouble with the ED. ,Soft on saffron ,While opposition parties accuse ED of targeting them, the agency also faces accusations of not taking adequate action against leaders or people associated with the ruling BJP.

Malik joined the Youth Congress after being inspired by Sanjay Gandhi. Following Gandhi's death, he opted to join the Sanjay Vichar Manch, which was launched by Maneka Gandhi as an opposition movement against then-prime minister Indira Gandhi.

Malik received only 2,950 votes in a race against two political heavyweights from Bombay North East, Gurudas Kamat and Pramod Mahajan. After becoming disappointed with the Congress during the 1992-93 riots, Malik joined the Samajwadi Party and was awarded a ticket to stand from the Nehrunagar constituency, where he came in second place, losing to the Shiv Sena's Suryanat Mahadik by 14,058 votes. The Supreme Court overturned Mahadik's election, forcing a bye poll in 1996, which Malik won by 7,000 votes. Also Read | Malik being troubled as he spoke against 'misuse' of central agencies: Pawar,In 1999, he was re-elected on a Samajwadi Party ticket, which had won two seats in the polls. Following the elections, when the Congress and NCP agreed to form an alliance, the Samajwadi Party also pledged their support, in exchange for a cabinet position. Malik was appointed Minister of State for Housing and Auqaf, and months after joining the Cabinet, he began to distance himself from the Samajwadi Party. He was kicked out of the party on October 13, 2001. Malik, who had subsequently teamed up with Sharad Pawar, joined the NCP four days later. Malik joined the NCP and later became a minister in the Congress-NCP cabinet, holding major positions such as Higher and Technical Education and Labor. Anna Hazare, a social activist, had charged him and three other ministers in the Congress-NCP cabinet of corruption. Hazare said that Malik obstructed the Maharashtra Housing Area Development Authority's renovation of a chawl in Mumbai so that a private builder might gain.

In his defence, Malik said that the decision to favour the builder in the project was made by the previous BJP-Shiv Sena administration, not by him. After a three-year break, he was sworn in as the Labour Minister in the Ashok Chavan-led cabinet in 2008. When the Congress-NCP regained power in 2009, Malik was not appointed to the Cabinet and was instead appointed as the party's spokesperson. Malik was relegated to an organisational position in the NCP as a spokesperson after losing the 2014 elections by a margin of 1,007 votes.

Malik had played an essential role as a spokesman in taking against the BJP's sophisticated social media organisation in the run-up to the 2019 Assembly elections. With the creation of the Maharashtra Vikas Aghadi administration, he returned to the state cabinet after a decade of absence. While many expected Malik to be rewarded with a high-profile ministry, he had to settle with Minority Affairs and Skill Development. He is said to be close to NCP President Sharad Pawar. Malik's son-in-law, a businessman Sameer Shabbir Khan, was apprehended by the Narcotics Control Bureau, commanded by Sameer Wankhede, in January 2021. The NCB apprehended a British national, Karan Sajnani, in January and reportedly found 75 kg of marijuana, 125 kg of marijuana-related stuff, and several cannabis buds brought from the United States from him. According to the NCB, money was transferred between him and Khan during his interrogation. Khan was called and subsequently arrested on January 9 as a result of this. In September, Khan was granted bail. Malik alleged that his son-in-law had been framed.

He further accused Wankhede of fabricating drug cases and working as a BJP puppet in order to target political opponents. Why was Malik arrested by the Enforcement Directorate?,The Enforcement Directorate detained NCP leader and state minister Nawab Malik on Wednesday morning in connection with its money-laundering investigation against underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and his aides.

He also suggested that the NCP should join the NDA.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":"","replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"19.076","longitude":"72.8777","name":"Mumbai, Maharashtra, India","city":"Mumbai"},"keywords":"Fadnavis Raut meeting, maharashtra politics, maharashtra government, sanjay raut, devendra fadnavis, ramdas athawale, sharad pawar, NDA, NCP","originalPublishedOn":"2020-09-29T11:48:38+05:30"}}]},"widgets":[]},"topicList":[{"id":"qT3vzrefjUIE","slug":"ncp","name":"NCP","isSection":0},{"id":"Bq4MmUPrXF8p","slug":"india","name":"India","isSection":1},{"id":"KGrnteP5qPtc","slug":"congress","name":"Congress","isSection":0},{"id":"cqfihWqpWO59","slug":"bjp","name":"BJP","isSection":0},{"id":"u7WMH2G7tiUf","slug":"shivsena","name":"shivsena","isSection":0},{"id":"sl9F6RThSKEr","slug":"maharashtra","name":"Maharashtra","isSection":0},{"id":"Q4zm51sewQtn","slug":"uddhavthackeray","name":"UddhavThackeray","isSection":0},{"id":"hmzqkpDB7jEj","slug":"indianews","name":"IndiaNews","isSection":0},{"id":"80xlP96nzpMb","slug":"eknathshinde","name":"EknathShinde","isSection":0},{"id":"LMdWDJPhBJGM","slug":"mamatabanerjee","name":"MamataBanerjee","isSection":0},{"id":"yK8XNPkrZdJ0","slug":"yashwantsinha","name":"YashwantSinha","isSection":0},{"id":"tG036zzhJOSj","slug":"nda","name":"NDA","isSection":0},{"id":"eTDSUMkVGl0j","slug":"trinamoolcongress","name":"TrinamoolCongress","isSection":0},{"id":"yG1sNdfk6RZ5","slug":"westbengal","name":"WestBengal","isSection":0},{"id":"UOQmcgiB5oGP","slug":"farooqabdullah","name":"FarooqAbdullah","isSection":0},{"id":"ODQ1kqHlUPEu","slug":"politics","name":"Politics","isSection":0},{"id":"2Mx5OKBUbZfx","slug":"narendramodi","name":"NarendraModi","isSection":0},{"id":"f1AaZo7fTdEO","slug":"parliament","name":"Parliament","isSection":0},{"id":"RyJnbYX9LO0Y","slug":"soniagandhi","name":"SoniaGandhi","isSection":0},{"id":"atjt6IrKxkKL","slug":"nationalconference","name":"NationalConference","isSection":0},{"id":"O6Tk9kzd3m5T","slug":"jharkhand","name":"Jharkhand","isSection":0},{"id":"YTJpdaKq5t2z","slug":"indian","name":"indian","isSection":0},{"id":"dQ2B5tOlrWeC","slug":"ramnathkovind","name":"RamNathKovind","isSection":0},{"id":"gRmaH4uEjBnO","slug":"odisha","name":"Odisha","isSection":0},{"id":"WvM29ozeipam","slug":"enforcementdirectorate","name":"EnforcementDirectorate","isSection":0},{"id":"v526co8BFkf5","slug":"surat","name":"Surat","isSection":0},{"id":"6fZ3qhgVzY2n","slug":"presidentelections","name":"PresidentElections","isSection":0},{"id":"CIOjGVeJeoLc","slug":"jammu","name":"jammu","isSection":0},{"id":"rzYqAK9lbk5U","slug":"delhi","name":"Delhi","isSection":0},{"id":"dhSG88wB1mIw","slug":"sanjayraut","name":"SanjayRaut","isSection":0},{"id":"uUq0dasUxHPB","slug":"president","name":"President","isSection":0},{"id":"iEhRQcab92b8","slug":"world","name":"World","isSection":1},{"id":"C3C5ED4Zml2X","slug":"jagdeepdhankar","name":"JagdeepDhankar","isSection":0},{"id":"FbwEsJETNg3T","slug":"margaretalva","name":"MargaretAlva","isSection":0},{"id":"8uXnuT5oyF06","slug":"arvindkejriwal","name":"ArvindKejriwal","isSection":0},{"id":"TtrHLXvjg4wB","slug":"news","name":"news","isSection":0},{"id":"9YkAEucTn6NK","slug":"loksabha","name":"LokSabha","isSection":0},{"id":"eYI0Eq09C2WF","slug":"rajnathsingh","name":"RajnathSingh","isSection":0},{"id":"8I1wjn0Fo5Ao","slug":"aimim","name":"AIMIM","isSection":0},{"id":"XcY0Fj6kgyMs","slug":"mlc","name":"MLC","isSection":0},{"id":"SJgXP5w5SXr0","slug":"draupadimurmu","name":"DraupadiMurmu","isSection":0},{"id":"LrdAPUIgzjOR","slug":"cm","name":"CM","isSection":0},{"id":"jtkufHpdTfkm","slug":"covid","name":"Covid","isSection":0},{"id":"xRL8TJfHE9Kv","slug":"kashmir","name":"Kashmir","isSection":0},{"id":"U5xYLyVKo2Mo","slug":"jpnadda","name":"JPNadda","isSection":0},{"id":"dUKG5vKW405S","slug":"samajwadiparty","name":"SamajwadiParty","isSection":0},{"id":"CbiAXyCgtqTK","slug":"punjab","name":"Punjab","isSection":0},{"id":"tFs7N5op7lnw","slug":"nawabmalik","name":"NawabMalik","isSection":0},{"id":"ZbQipZWThohh","slug":"newdelhi","name":"NewDelhi","isSection":0},{"id":"0tRaYRxDzWyj","slug":"karnataka","name":"Karnataka","isSection":0}],"slug":"sharadpawar","lang":"en","sectionArray":[1,2],"messages":{"Disclaimer":{"DISCLAIMER":"Disclaimer","OPINION_DISCLAIMER":"The views expressed in this article are the personal opinions of the author.
