After more than 30 MPs got corona infected, the current monsoon session of Parliament is expected to be cut. Parliament officials said the session could be concluded in the middle of next week. Actually, on Saturday there was a meeting of the committee related to the functioning of the Lok Sabha.
Leaders of all parties, representatives of the government and speakers were present in it. In this, most of the leaders supported that the session of Parliament started on 14 September should be concluded before 1 October. However, the final decision to cut the session will be decided by the Cabinet Committee on Parliamentary Affairs.
During the session, three bills related to agriculture sector have been passed in the Lok Sabha and the bill for deducting the salary and allowances of the MP for 30 years for one year has been passed. Sources said that during the session itself, many MPs, including Union Ministers Nitin Gadkari, Prahlad Patel, came out to Corona.
The Corona crisis has changed the manner of campaigning for presidential elections in the US. President Donald Trump plans to run a large digital campaign to give a tough competition to the Democratic National Convention. This convention will last four days. Trump spokesman Tim Murtow said his party would spend 75 million rupees on digital publicity in these four days. There will also be a continuous 96-hour promotion on YouTube. Apart from this, campaigns will be run on many big websites and news outlets.
Democratic candidate Joe Biden is campaigning through television and radio. According to ad tracking firm Advertising Analytics, Biden spent 111 crore and Trump spent Rs 53 crore on publicity from August 8 to August 14. Both parties are struggling with shortage of campaigning workers this time. Many activists have also refused to work on the day of voting. The state of Maryland alone has a shortage of 14,000 workers.
Many programs canceled due to Corona
Programs such as rallies, gatherings to raise funds and debate on electoral issues have almost been canceled. This time digital medium has replaced activities such as direct rallies, door-to-door publicity. The parties are promoting by advertising on websites, YouTube etc. By the middle of August, the workers of the parties used to knock on the doors of the voters before the first presidential election. This did not happen this year.
The national convention of both parties is important in elections. It is here that parties accept nomination of candidates. The National Convention of the Democratic Party was to be held in April this year. This had to be extended to July and then to August 17. Trump was earlier saying that more and more people should reach his election rallies. This would end Corona's fears, but Trump had to cancel the convention in Florida. They will also not attend the Convention of Charlotte.
Not only this, Trump will accept a nomination in Washington DC's Andrew Mellon Auditorium, but will deliver the speech from the White House. 400 party delegates will participate in the Charlotte Convention.
Indianness:
The Democratic Party's four-day National Convention started with the Democrats ' mantra and Ardas began on Monday. For this, programs are being held at different places across the country.

A leader of the Sikh community associated with the Viskonsin Gurdwara performed the Ardas.
In this conference, Biden will be elected as President and Indian-origin Senator Kamala Harris as the Vice-Presidential candidate from the Democratic Party. Earlier, an all-religion prayer meeting was also held on Sunday for the 'Biden for President' campaign. It read the lines of Mahabharata for Biden and Harris saying - 'Yato Krishna Tato Dharma, Yato Dharma Tato Jai'. The first debate between Trump and Biden is scheduled for September 29.

Nonum herself reacted to the song, writing on Twitter, "Lyrics, but shit, it's something about Queen Tone that is bothering me. Is. "She later deleted the tweet."

The Aunt Jemima brand of syrup and pancake mix will get a new name and image, Quaker Oats announced Wednesday, with the company stating that "Aunt Jemima's origins are based on a racial stereotype."
The 130-year-old brand had a black woman named Auntie Jemima history, who was originally dressed as a misteller character.
The picture has changed over time, and in recent years Quaker removed "Mummy" Kirkiff from the character in order to blunt the growing criticism that the brand maintained a racist stereotype that dates back to the days of slavery. But PepsiCo's subsidiary Quaker said the removal of the image and name is part of the company's "effort to progress towards racial equality".
"We recognize that Auntie Jemima's origins are based on a racial conservatism," Kristin Kroffle, Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of Quaker Foods North America, said in a press release. " Work for. Our portfolio of brands should also be closely monitored and ensure that they reflect our values and meet the expectations of our consumers. "
Kroffl said the company worked to "appropriately" and respectfully "update" the brand, but felt the changes were inadequate.
Aunt Jemima has recently faced renewed criticism from the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis police custody amid protests across the country and around the world.
People on social media called for the brand to continue using the image and discussed its racist history with the topic on Twitter.
In Viral Tickcock, a singer named Kirby discussed the history of the brand in a video titled "How to Make a Non-Racist Breakfast". She concludes the post that has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times on the platform, "Black Life Matter, people, even at breakfast."
Aron Jemima, "Riche Richardson, an associate professor at Cornwell University, said Wednesday on the" Today "show," There is a regressive image of Black Womanhood on store shelves. "There is this kind of conservatism that is based on this idea of black inferiority and otherness."
"A lot of these symbols are necessary to evacuate our public spaces, because some people trigger and represent terror and abuse," Richardson said.
In a 2015 piece for The New York Times, Richardson wrote that the inspiration for the brand's name came from a minstrel song, "Old Aunt Jemima", in which black actors mocked black actors and extorted black people.
Logos, Richardson wrote, "neglected the mother ... a devoted and humble servant who eagerly nurtured the children of her white master and mistress."
The company's own product timeline states that Aunt Jemima was first "brought to life" by Nancy Green, a black woman who was previously a slave and became the face of the product in 1890.
In 2015, a judge dismissed a lawsuit against the company by two men who claimed to be descendants of Anna Harrington, a black woman portraying Jemima in the 1930s, with the company properly compensating their assets with royalties. Did not.
Quaker said the new packaging will begin appearing in the fall of 2020, and a new name for the food items will be announced later.
The company also announced that it would "donate at least $ 5 million over the next five years" to build meaningful, ongoing support and engagement in the Black community.
Dena Ramey Berry, professor of history at The University of Texas, said the decision to leave the name and image of Aunt Jemima is significant because the brand normalized racist depictions of black women.
Aunt Jemima said, "placed the domestic woman as a domestic woman in space," associating them with serving food under a "plantation mentality".
Berry also said that it would be misleading to describe the change by Quakers as a loss of representation for black women.
Criticizing Aunt Jemima's image, she says, "about representation - the stereotypes and the painful and degrading ways in which we are represented."

The dispute between the two major cinema organizations of the country has deepened regarding the certification. Manufacturers 'association IMPAA has made several serious allegations against cine technician workers' association FWICE. There have been allegations by Impa that FWICE has described itself as the only entity in Western India. It is also alleged that the workers and producers working outside this situation are being fined. The complaint in this case has also reached the CCI (Competition Commission of India).
IMPAA Chairman DP Agarwal wrote in the complaint, 'We are indeed surprised that you are repeatedly representing that you are the only union that controls all workers, technicians and artists' unions in Western India. And you refuse to allow all producer associations and producers to work with non-members of your institution.
False claim to be 5 lakh workers
This is done on the basis of your claim that FWICE represents five lakh workers, while in reality your workers number is less than 50,000. This has been confirmed by the video recording of your treasurer Mr. Gangeshwarlal Srivastava. It states that the total active members of the trade union are all lightmen, staff, spot and production buoys, all workers in the art department and majority workers of all production crews, only 12,000. The total number of all your associates cannot exceed 50,000.
You also know that you are not the only association in the entertainment industry. There are also Shiv Sena Chitrapat Branch, Film Craft Federation, Marathi Chitrapat Mahamandal and many other associations like BJP, Congress, MNS. Therefore, on the basis of imagination without pause, you are claiming to be the sole representative of all workers to mislead everyone.
IMPPA has been reminding its decision at every opportunity of violation of the order and advises you not to violate the law. The decision of the CCI has the same status as the High Court and can only be challenged in the Supreme Court. However, you have continued to instruct producers and your own partners, disregarding the CCI decision. CCI was approached by a producer Contilo Pictures Pvt Ltd against it. In this case, you issued letters of exclusion dated 29-3-18 / 26-11-18 to your affiliates. You also issued a threatening letter to Messrs on 30-11-18.
Fines on people are a violation of rules
Explaining further, TP Aggarwal said, 'You and your colleagues have to realize that times have changed. No one can set the conditions. Everyone will have to work jointly and give full cooperation otherwise producers and industries will not be able to live. Producers are free to work with any person of their choice, whether or not a member of any association, at a price fixed by them. No one has any right to insist only on the employment of its members, conduct vigilance checks and stop shoots. Hiring non-members and imposing fines is a violation of the Competition Act given by CCI. The producers are independent, they have complete freedom to work. No one else can interfere with the idea decided or make any unreasonable demand as it is a violation of law '.
'IMPPA clearly tells you the total number of its employees and the restrictions imposed on you by CCI. It is your duty to ensure that under no circumstances should any of your colleagues use any form of strong weapon tactics against the film, TV or any other entertainment platform or producer. No one can abuse the law of the land. If you and your colleagues do this, you will do so entirely at your own risk, such as costs and consequences'.
There are more than 10 thousand children of India studying in Kyrgyzstan. Many of these children are trapped there after the lockdown. According to the rules implemented in the lockdown in Kyrgyzstan, every foreigner should have a passport when exiting.
No one can leave without a passport. Passports of many students are stored in the college, in which they have not been able to leave their rooms for the last nearly 70 days. They are getting their work done with the help of local students.
The lockdown was imposed on 21 March in Kyrgyzstan. Although now largely removed, the police are still checking passports and other things when they go out, which is why these children have been imprisoned in a room for more than two months.
Thousands of students from Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, UP and many other states of the country are stranded in Kyrgyzstan. Already since the lockdown in Kyrgyzstan, these people are trying to come to India, but have not been able to come yet.
Some students have returned under the Vande Bharat Mission, some have their flight schedules but there are many who remain confused about their return.
Students say that, here we cannot go anywhere without passport. Passports of many students are deposited in the college, they cannot even leave.
If you go out, where you are going, the complete route, whom you are meeting, when you will come, you have to make note of this information, so no one goes out.
The temperature is lower in Kyrgyzstan. Earlier hot water used to come from the taps, which has stopped coming now. If you heat the house, the bill comes too much.
Many are about to run out of ration and cannot even buy that much money. There are many such problems.
Read the story of these students, their words.
Students of MP: when the bank canceled the loan, the college deposited the passport
Marian Das of Hatpipalia, a small town in MP, has been stuck in Kyrgyzstan for the last 5 months. Marion was studying MBBS from the Asian Medical Institute in Kant, Kyrgyzstan. His first year had been completed. She then returned to India on leave and returned to Kyrgyzstan on 24 September.
Marion has been stuck in Kyrgyzstan for the last 5 months.
Despite the promise, the bank did not give them an education loan, so they could not deposit the fees for the third semester.
Due to non-payment of fees, the college refused to give him admission in hostels and confiscated his passport and visa.
In December-January, when all of Marion's friends were shifted to the hostel, she lived in another flat. Meanwhile, a lockdown took place and problems of eating and drinking also started.
Indian food first ended in Kyrgyzstan, says Marian. We had added some money to each other and stocked it with him as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, she kept trying to get her passport and visa but she could not get help from anywhere.
In the meantime, says Marian, I was stopped from giving exams. Throughout the day, she would talk to her mother and father on the Watts app.
They too were constantly trying to get me out of there, but nothing was happening.
Last week, after a lot of efforts, I got the passport and visa with the help of Indore MLA Ramesh Mendola. He spoke at the Indian Embassy, then after the Embassy intervened, the college gave him a visa-passport. She is treated very badly by college people, says Marion. Threatened and even abused.
Marion reported that, the college staff misbehaved with him.
I was forced to write to the notary that if I do not pay the fees, the college can take any legal action against me.
Marion paid the full fee for the first year. But due to non-loan approval, she was not able to pay the fees for the third semester.
According to Marian's mother Reena Das, the bank had earlier given a loan to give the loan, so we sent the girl to Kyrgyzstan but after she reached there, the bank refused to give the loan.
We paid his first year fees with great difficulty. But in the second year it was not possible to do so without the help of the bank. If the bank had already refused to give the loan, we would not have sent the girl out.
According to Marion there are a lot of Indians. Everyone knows each other, so they helped in these difficult times.
Otherwise the college had left for Tomara. They do not mean anything to children living outside the hostels. No children's freak. Now 179 children stranded here will leave for their country on 21 June by special flight.
Deepak Anjana, studying MBBS from the International Institute of Medicine in Kyrgyzstan's capital, Bishkek, is also among the returning students on 21 June. Deepak told that we had started 'Mission MP' to get out of here. A group of all the students of MP was formed on WhatsApp. It was through this group that the government made pressure to send flights.
Deepak says that this embassy's negligence also led to some major problems. Like Bihar a girl was admitted in the hospital but despite being a medical emergency, she was not sent to India from the first flight. He died on 1 June.
Deepak says, we could not get out of our flat for almost two months.
According to Deepak, there are about 10-15 thousand students of India in Kyrgyzstan. Most of the exams have been held in May. Now how come everyone wants to reach home. Some exams will be online later.
Raghuraj Singh, who lives with Deepak, has completed his fifth semester. The lockdown, he said, lasted from 21 March to 10 May.
In lockdown, we had to carry passport and route charge with us. The route charge had to tell the police where they were going and at what time they would return. Had to show passport.
Passports of many students are stored in the college, so they could not go out. Students who were in hostels could not get out even once in the entire lockdown.
If everything goes well, we will come here again in September. It became expensive here after the lockdown, says Raghuraj. Due to this also, problems were faced.
Rajasthan: We are stuck, our name is not in the flight that is going on now ...
Tushar Jain of Rajasthan is also stranded in Kyrgyzstan. He told that, so far, no way has been made for our departure from here.
We are constantly in touch with Indian Embassy. I have mailed myself several times but have not received any reply yet. We also spoke to the Chittor MP but nothing happened. Although the lockdown has been lifted now, there is no problem, but there are many students whose examinations have taken place.
My final year was completed. Now how ever we want to reach home as soon as possible. My name is not in the flight that is going on now.
Students of UP: When they get out, they have to tell the police where and why they are going, when they will return.
UP's Kapil Yadav told that, has been trying to go since March but nothing has been done yet. Kapil says, now hot water is not coming here. First, hot water came from one tap and colder than the other.
Kapil said that there was no flight schedule for UP.
The temperature is 18 to 20 degrees. There is a habit of using hot water. If you do it at home, then the bill comes a lot. If you go to take the food items too, you have to keep the passport with you and a lot of inquiries are made. Can not get out anywhere. Get out then the police have to tell where they are going, who they are going to meet and when they will return. A passport has to be kept along with it. Therefore, no one comes out. All are cutting flat all day. We are 800-900 students from UP. Now somehow want to get out of here. Many people have moved to Stress due to living in one place continuously. We also spoke to MP VK Singh but could not get any help. He said flights could begin by July.
Students of Chhattisgarh: MLA's son also studies with us, still did not help
Kosar Alam of Chhattisgarh has also not been named in the list yet. Kosar told that about 500 students of Chhattisgarh are here, who are unable to leave.
The housemates are very upset, says Kosar. Now how to get out of here.
We were trying to get out before the lockdown took place, but no one helped. The son of an MLA also studies with us, he also talks through it, but so far no one has tried to expel us. Kosar says, he is trapped in a room here. Exams were done. Family members are worried. feeling homesick. How to get out as soon as possible.
Many have written letters but the flight schedule is not yet done.
About 800 students from Jammu and Kashmir are also stranded in Kargistan. Former CMMer Abdullah said about this by tweeting there.
I've been confidential by parents on behalf of about 800 Kashmiris stuck in Bishkek & Osh cities of Kyrgyzstan. The students have been stuck there for months & are desperate to come home. E-Hope @fnoindia , @naaindia & @HardeepSPuri Repatriate Them Under #VandeBharathMission K
The embassy said- Do not take a loan with a passport, a notice has also been issued by the Indian embassy in Bishkek, Kurgistan on the Indian passport.
Notice issued by the Embassy of India.
It said that some Indian students are taking loans from other students by depositing their passports with them. Some foreigners are also doing this by depositing passports. This is completely illegal as the Indian passport is the property of the Government of India. When someone is found doing so, the embassy has spoken of taking strict action against him.
