🚨 #ExpressInvestigation | The Union Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare, Bhagirath Choudhary, received a subsidy of Rs 99 lakh for his cucumber farm under a scheme administered by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare.
The subsidy was granted under the "Development of Commercial Horticulture through Production and Post-Harvest Management of Horticulture Crops" scheme, which aims to promote large-scale commercial cultivation of select vegetables and flowers.
Under the scheme, eligible beneficiaries — including individuals, farmer groups, companies, cooperatives and other institutions — can receive a subsidy of up to 50 per cent of the project cost, capped at Rs 1 crore per family.
The subsidy is linked to a term loan taken for the project and is released after the completion of the project, following multiple stages of approval and inspection by the National Horticulture Board (NHB).

🚨 #ExpressInvestigation | The Union Minister of State for Agriculture Bhagirath Choudhary received a ₹99.03 lakh subsidy for a commercial cucumber farming project under a scheme run by the ministry he serves in.
While the final approval was granted by an NHB project approval committee that does not include the minister, Choudhary is the ex-officio Vice-President of the NHB board that oversees its functioning.
The project, worth ₹1.99 crore, was among 467 approved under the scheme in 2025.

What happened in Ayodhya is happening in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh now
CM Mohan Yadav's Wife, Son and Daughter in law purchased almost 165 acres of land in Ujjain for around ₹45 Crores
Then suddenly Govt has announced a plan to develop Ujjain named "Ujjain Master Plan 2035"
Coincidentally all their land is near the Govt announced projects
Now their land's value went up multiple times
And then Modi says, "Na khaunga, Na khane dunga" 🤡
Indian telecom Reliance is sabotaging access to Telegram for millions of users OUTSIDE India (including the UAE) via a rogue method called BGP hijacking.
The sabotage seems intentional, as Reliance has ignored multiple reports.
This may be part of a competitive war, as Reliance is partially owned by Meta — the company behind WhatsApp.
Network operators are advised to reject unauthorized BGP announcements from Reliance (AS18101) to prevent route hijacks and ensure stable Internet access for their users.
Such abuse of global Internet routing is alarming. I wouldn’t be surprised if Reliance/WhatsApp were also behind the recent lobbying effort to ban Telegram in India.
@PrateekSinghINC Exactly same happened twice with my @flipkartsupport@Flipkart order..
The delivery executive kept rescheduling. Then I ended up cancelling the order after losing patience after 10 days of non delivery. I then deleted the sh$#ty app.
Kudos to @KokrajharPolice for securing a conviction in the Patgaon stray dog killing case.
The accused has been sentenced to one year of imprisonment under Section 325 BNS, following a dedicated investigation by SI Amirul Hussain and the team.
Cruelty towards animals has consequences.
