Congress begins tricky seat-sharing talks with INDIA bloc parties

IndiaTimes Sunday, 7 January 2024
The Congress has begun seat-sharing talks with the opposition bloc INDIA for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. The talks aim to reach a seat-sharing plan for the general election, including negotiations with the Aam Aadmi Party in Punjab and Delhi. The Congress's committee on seat-sharing has conducted internal consultations and submitted its findings to party chief Mallikarjun Kharge. However, seat-sharing talks may pose challenges in states like West Bengal, Kerala, Delhi, and Punjab due to existing alliances and disagreements with local parties. The Congress aims to strengthen the opposition against the BJP through these seat-sharing arrangements

Hathras Stampede: Congress President Kharge Raises 'Hathras' Issue in Parliament, Blames Govt.

Rajya Sabha Opposition Leader Mallikarjun Kharge proposed enacting a law to address "fake" godmen and prevent Hathras-like stampedes. This suggestion followed Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar's obituary reference to the Hathras incident. Dhankhar indicated a potential discussion in the next session on avoiding such tragedies, with the ruling side considering legislation. Kharge highlighted the lack of regulations for religious gatherings organized by godmen, emphasizing the need for rules on venue selection, area requirements, access control, and proximity to medical facilities. #RajyaSabha #MallikarjunKharge #Kharge #HathrasStampede #Hathrashorror #Hathrasnews #Stampedenews #Indianews #Politics #Oneindia #Oneindianews
