There was a large crowd gathered to see film actress Mahima Chaudhary. Mahima arrived there at the last moment. As Mahima arrived, the crowd almost went out of control in the attempt to see her. Everybody wanted to see Mahima. There was near chaos. Mahima addressed the public and appealed to them to vote for Congress candidate Satpal Maharaj. She also sang a song, ‘I Love My India’, during her speech. People demanded an encore, but had to be disappointed due to her busy schedule. Before the arrival of Mahima Chaudhary, Congress candidate Satpal Maharaj also addressed the public. He said that the Congress was the only one party that favoured the Dalits and economically backward. He said that the Union Government led by the Congress had granted a lot of money for the special component plan to Uttarakhand, but the State BJP government is not using it properly.

उत्तराखंड में जंगल की आग से 6 की मौत
पौड़ी [जासं]। जंगल की आग बुझाने की कोशिश में शुक्रवार को छह लोगों को जान से हाथ धोना पड़ गया।
उत्तराखंड में पौड़ी जिला मुख्यालय से 13 किलोमीटर दूर गगवाड़ा गांव के सौ से अधिक लोग पंचायत वन क्षेत्र में लगी आग बुझाने गए थे। दोपहर के समय आग ने प्रचंड रूप ले लिया। ग्रामीण आग की चपेट में आ गए। इनमें पांच लोगों की जलकर मौके पर ही मौत हो गई, जबकि सात लोग झुलस गए। जिनमें से तीन को गंभीर स्थिति में बेस चिकित्सालय श्रीकोट रिफर किया गया है।
Dr. Shamsher Singh Bisht says that government is responsible for that. धधकते जंगलों के लिए सरकार की वन नीति जिम्मेदार: डा.बिष्ट
डा.बिष्ट ने कहा है कि जंगलों को सरकार ने अपनी आय बढ़ाने का मुख्य साधन माना। इसलिए नेता, नौकरशाह व ठेकेदारों के गठजोड़ ने मनमाने धन से जंगलों का सफाया किया। उन्होंने कहा कि स्थानीय जनता के हितों को न पहले ध्यान में रखा गया, न आजादी के बाद ही उनकी चिंता की गई। ठेकेदार को जंगल लूटने की खुली आजादी दी गई। लेकिन स्थानीय व्यक्ति को जर्जर मकान सुधारने के लिए एक पेड़ की टहनी काटने की भी अनुमति नहीं दी गई। जिसके कारण स्थानीय लोगों का जंगलों से लगाव ही टूट गया।
Its enough for the day.
