They called on Pappu because they know that he will always be a child who never have to work a single day in his life. So he will support all kinds of bills that ban child labour :D

They all look so happy to see pappu, like meeting him was an achievement by itself.
 
23-year-old woman found dead; partner in custody

A 23-year-old woman allegedly committed suicide at her residence in Kalamassery on Friday. The police have registered a case of unnatural death and taken her live-in partner into custody.
According to police, the deceased identified as Anuja, a native of Edappally, was found hanging from the ceiling of her house near the Hill Valley School on Friday night.

She had been living in the house for the past one-and-a-half months with Khaleel, a native of Chavakkad, who reported the incident to the police. The sleuths are yet to ascertain the cause of the death and did not recover any suicide notes despite repeated searches in the house.

During the probe, Khaleel said he was originally married to another woman and had children in that relationship. He also claimed that he had married Anuja, which the sleuths are yet to confirm. While the woman was found dead on Friday night, the police could not shift the body from the location owing to a hold up in conduct of the inquest proceedings.

This was attributed to a delay in the arrival of the Revenue Divisional Officer, who led the proceedings.

Meanwhile, the situation was tense in the locality on Saturday morning after some BJP activists raised charges of ‘love-jihad’ against Khaleel and accused the local police of attempting to hush up the case. “We have taken her partner into custody for detailed interrogation. Investigations so far have not revealed any physical assault against the victim but anything concrete can be said only after examining the post-mortem report,” said Bijo Alexander, Assistant Commissioner, Thrikkakara. Meanwhile, officials said that Khaleel was an accused in the murder of an RSS activist in Chavakkad a couple of years ago.

Inside Track: Learning Golf
Despite his hectic schedule of late, Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi is learning to play golf at the prestigious Delhi Golf Club. Rahul was seen recently working out on the range as well as practising putting. Since he is not a member of the club, he has to pay the guest fee. Rahul is learning golf presumably because he wants to eventually apply for membership. The ability to play the game is a prerequisite for joining the club. Although there is a long waiting list for the club, there is a special tenure membership quota of 25 for MPs during their term in Parliament. In addition, Minister for Urban Development Venkaiah Naidu has the discretion to nominate two persons for permanent membership annually. Rahul will have to write to Naidu to recommend his case to the club even if he wants a temporary membership. His brother-in-law Robert Vadra has been a member for several years and was recommended for the discretionary quota by former minister Jaipal Reddy. When they were younger, even Priyanka’s children used to come to the club for putting practice.

Modi media monitor

Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a dig at the media during a recent interaction with senior journalists. Asked whether he anticipated any trouble with China along the border during his trip to that country, as had happened during Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit to India, Modi replied wryly that it was certainly possible since the Indian media would be there.

The PM was in a relaxed mood, laughing and cracking jokes. Asked by a scribe whether West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had had a change of heart towards his government, Modi retorted, “I don’t have access to her heart.”

Modi added that the media, contrary to its claims, does not really have an insight into what is happening in the government. For example, recent reports about a Cabinet reshuffle were completely speculative. When he actually decides on a Cabinet expansion, he said, he was certain no one would get to know about it in advance, not even any of his ministers.

Modi also countered the impression that the decision-making in his government was completely Modi-centric. He insisted his ministers were free to take their own decisions.

While he felt the media was sometimes not objective, the PM noted good-naturedly that TV news had limited reach. In the evening, most viewers watch entertainment serials.

Right to his views

Narendra Modi was asked why former NDA minister Arun Shourie had given an interview criticising him, Amit Shah and Arun Jaitley when Shourie had met the PM only recently. Modi was unfazed. He said he met Shourie every month and would continue to meet him, and that he had a right to his views.

Second thoughts

Samajwadi Party leader Ram Gopal Yadav shocked the RJD and JD(U) leadership when he frankly stated that the merger to form a Janata Parivar was not possible before the Bihar Assembly elections. The SP is having second thoughts about the merger on several counts. It is by far the richest of the parties planning to merge, with a huge cash chest and a long list of physical assets spread all over Uttar Pradesh. It does not want to surrender this to the common pool. The SP symbol of the cycle is to be the common symbol for the united Janata Parivar, but in the Election Commission records, the cycle is listed as a symbol reserved for regional parties only. If the new party after the merger gets more than 6 per cent votes nationally, it will be designated a national party and will lose the cycle symbol. Akhilesh Yadav and Ram Gopal Yadav also fear that given Mulayam’s fragile health, Nitish, Sharad Yadav and Lalu Yadav could gobble up the new party. Besides, Yadav is currently the SP leader in the Rajya Sabha and doesn’t want to surrender the post to JD(U) leader Sharad Yadav. Finally, the SP does not want arch enemy Amar Singh back in the party fold.

Special request

Shashi Kapoor’s daughter Sanjana Kapoor sent a personal message to Information & Broadcasting Minister Arun Jaitley requesting him to make a trip to Mumbai to hand over the Dadasaheb Phalke award to the ailing actor, who is confined to a wheelchair. Sanjana pleaded that the entire Kapoor khaandan and the extended Bollywood tribe would be present on this very special occasion. They would feel let down if anyone other than the minister himself graced the occasion. Jaitley agreed to make a special trip to Mumbai for the occasion
