The idea that only urban belts will have jobs has emptied villages and turned urban lives into hell. There are four crore unemployed people in the country. The poverty in the country is looming like a demon, whose key reasons include civil strife and poor level of education. Referring to RSS general secretary Dattatreya Hosabale’s statements during a webinar organised by the RSS-affiliate Swadeshi Jagran Manch, it says, “Hosabale said we should feel sad that 20 crore people are still below poverty line and 23 crore people have less than Rs 375 income per day. The editorial says Union minister Nitin Gadkari recently remarked that India is a rich country with poor people. In its editorial on October 7, the Bengaluru-based Salar writes that the Opposition parties have been targeting the Narendra Modi-led BJP government for a long time over poverty and rising unemployment and inequality in the country, but now even the saffron party’s ideological fountainhead RSS has also sounded an alarm on these vital burning issues. But he has not said anything on remission for the Bilkis case convicts,” it adds. “Bhagwat has called women ‘Jagat Janani (creators of the universe)’. The daily says Bhagwat’s bid to cite the examples of small countries like Kosovo and South Sudan to make his case for a population policy for a country like India is “misplaced and alarmist”.
In its editorial on October 7, Urdu Times focuses on Bhagwat’s Dussehra rally speech, noting that the RSS chief made the claim about “population imbalance” as he called for a comprehensive population policy. Taking a swipe at the RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat’s pitch during his address to his organisation’s annual rally earlier in the day calling for ensuring equal rights for women and empowering them, Uddhav raised the Ankita Bhandari murder case and the remission granted to the Bilkis Bano case convicts who were feted, too, after their release from jail, the daily says.
On its part, the saffron party played the role of a spectator amid the Senas’ showdown. He slammed the BJP by raking up L K Advani’s visit to the Jinnah tomb and PM Modi’s visit to Pakistan to meet Nawaz Sharif. Uddhav gunned for the BJP, charging that the functioning of the state and central governments has triggered concerns whether democracy will remain alive in the country, the edit says, adding that he also raised key issues like unemployment while making it clear that his faction’s version of Hindutva embraced democracy and inclusive politics.
