Rape, murder in Congress office in Kerala.
Two Congress leaders including a senior Congress minister's personal assistant were arrested on Monday for the rape and murder of a woman in the party block office in Nilambur, Malappuram district.
The post-mortem report which was out Tuesday morning said the victim, a sweeper in the Congress office, was brutally raped since her private parts bore severe injuries.
Thirty-eight-year-old Biju Nair , the personal assistant of Aryadan Muhammed , the local MLA and Power Minister, and K. Shamsudeen were the two persons arrested. With the Perinthalmanna DSP forming a team for further investigations on Tuesday, Muhammed said he welcomed any investigation into the incident. The body of the victim, C. Radha (49), was fished out on Monday from a pond located in the homestead of another local Congress leader. The body was found in a sack.
The murder came to light on the day the Congress high command anointed VM Sudheeran, the party's Mr Clean, as the new president of the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee.
Police said Radha had gone missing since February 5. Following a complaint from her brother, the local police registered a case and initiated investigation. By evening, the two suspects were arrested and confessed to their crime.
Police got information on Monday that the body was found in a pond. According to police, the murder took place on February when the woman came for sweeping the office premises and her corpse was taken to the pond by an autorickshaw.
As regards the motive for the crime, police said the victim could have been killed since she used to blackmail Nair of threatening to make public his illicit relations with another woman. But the victim's brother Bhaskaran charged that more important persons were involved and that Nair owned up the crime to protect someone else.
CPM state secretary Pinarayi Vijayan demanded a comprehensive inquiry into the murder as many prominent Congress leaders too were involved in the case. "The new KPCC President will take note and serious action. Especially since the personal assistant of senior Congress minister is involved," he said.
In Kerala, each minister's personal staff members are employed without any norms since they are based on the recommendation of either the minister or party members.
Many personal staff members of Congress minister's including Chief Minister Ommen Chandy were removed due to impropriety in 2013. Chandy's personal staff members Tenny Joppan and Gireesh Kumar were removed following allegations of sexual abuse and impropriety against them whereas his former gunman Salim Raj was terminated following his involvement in fraud connected with land deals and solar scam.
Tenny Joppan was removed from Chandy's service as he maintained close links with Solar scam accused Saritha S. Nair and was instrumental in connecting the Chief Minister's office to the fraud.
The number of personal staff that a minister can have in the state is more than what a Union minister is eligible to have in his team. A minister in Kerala can appoint 30 staff in Kerala where as in the Centre, it's just 15. The personal staff is eligible for pension after two years and many politicians use this opportunity to appoint even their relatives as personal staff. During LDF rule, Health Minister PK Sreemathi had even appointed her daughter-in-law as her personal staff. She was forced to quit when it turned into a controversy.
RTI activist DB Binu said, "There should be a minimum qualification for appointing personal staff member to a minister. The appointment should be through Public Service Commission. I have got several documents through RTI that shows that many personal staff members who joined service as driver or peon were later promoted to bigger posts. Some of them haven't even passed Class 10."

BJP hires big advertisement agencies for its 400 crore propogenda campaign
MUMBAI: The Bharatiya Janata Party is lining up an A-team of advertising professionals to execute its election campaign. Sources close to the development told TOI that celebrated lyricist and adman Prasoon Joshi and media planning veteran Sam Balsara have been mandated to handle the Rs 400 crore election account of the principal opposition party.
The creative duties, which involve making television and prints ads, may be split between a few players including a little-known WPP agency, Soho Square. Joshi, who leads McCann Worldgroup here, may be involved with the campaign at an individual level as a lyricist, sources close to the matter said. The media-buying duties, which entail putting the communication across different media platforms like print, radio, TV and digital, have been given to Madison Media. Lodestar UM and WPP's Group M were also in contention for this coveted account.
Besides, Joshi and Balsara, the BJP has also managed to rope in Piyush Pandey, executive chairman and creative director (South Asia) at Ogilvy & Mather (O&M), albeit indirectly, to spruce up its advertising campaign. Pandey's O&M, also a part of Martin Sorrell's WPP group, is likely to oversee the work which will come out of Soho Square, industry sources said.
O&M could not take up the account as the agency on record due to a strict global guideline which does not allow group agencies to work on election campaigns. Pandey has been working with the Narendra Modi-led Gujarat government and sources said that on the chief minister's insistence the adman was brought on board. The hotly contested pitch for the BJP election account had several leading advertising and media agencies in the fray as reported earlier by this newspaper in its January 28 edition.
With its prime ministerial candidate Modi leading from the front, the BJP's communication will be digital-heavy, said sources.
Modi, who has been one of the first Indian politicians to take to social media platforms, boasts of over 3.4 million followers on micro-blogging site Twitter. "They are expected to use the digital media aggressively and innovatively," said a source in the BJP who did not want to be quoted as the party has not made an official announcement yet.
The BJP's communication around the elections has been picking pace online,
although no agency has been formally appointed so far. The party put out full-page advertisements in leading dailies on January 25—National Voters day. The saffron party has been pushing the Modi brand through various social media channels. The party has also been promoting its 'Mission 272+' volunteer initiative online.

IT sector shining light of brand India: Narendra Modi
BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on Friday described India's IT sector as a change-agent that has the power to transform the country in several ways.
"I keep saying that IT+IT=IT (Indian Talent + Information Technology = India Tomorrow). The IT sector can be the shining light of Brand India," Mr Modi said.
The Gujarat chief minister said he sees IT as a change-agent. "It empowers, connects and can bind isolated parts of the nation and create harmony. IT can join people with governments, bridge the gap between demand and supply, and can bring us closer to knowledge," he added.
"Just like the British built bridges and rail lines, information highway network can today play a very big role in transforming the nation," Mr Modi said.
Addressing IT sector lobby Nasscom's 25th leadership summit through a webcast, Mr Modi said those corporate houses where information is exchanged freely from bottom to top, and where effective guidance comes from top to bottom succeed.
He also called for increased use of technology to reach out to the masses via e-governance tools that can bring minimum government and maximum governance. It is easy, effective and economic governance, he added.
"It brings empowerment, equity and efficiency to the economy. It is a very useful field that can be the greatest problem solver of people," Mr Modi said.
The BJP's prime ministerial candidate termed e-governance as the most effective form of governance and said his state has taken several initiatives to make life easier for the common man.
"We must bring down the digital divide. We can't have two India, one racing ahead and another moving on a reverse gear. This will add to our problems," he said.
Highlight India's demographic dividend, Mr Modi said, "We need to empower our youth with skills for their development and growth of India. This way we will succeed in putting India on the road to fast and inclusive development."
Noting that use of technology can further enhance delivery of services at the grassroots levels, he said "we should aim at developing a knowledge market where every seller and buyer knows everything, and the workers in every sector are knowledge workers".
Mr Modi also said that India should focus on manufacturing and services sectors for inclusive growth and reducing the dependence on imports.
"Electronics imports have a big share in our overall import basket. We must focus on manufacturing, particularly in strategic sectors like defence...there is also a need to focus on promoting hardware as much as software to ensure inclusive growth," he said.

1.) Its because the local govt. police don't register rape and crime cases on the instruction of Modi.
2.) Will u believe UP and bihar have lowest rapes in whole of India??
UP has lowest rape rate among all states: NCRB - The Times of India
Its based on the same NCRB data ur talking about.
NCRB data on Gujarat:
Cases of rape increase by 7% in Gujarat - The Times of India

That is why Muslims of gujarat Love modi. They are going to vote for BJP overwhelmingly. More than 80% of Shias, Khojas and Ahemadias are going to vote for BJP.
This is the reason why Modi is so popular in Laddies. He is the one who see either mother or sister in every women. He is not the one who will rape a lady in guest house.
People can go to court and register FIR. There is a lots of Renesas in Gujarat. In Gujarat No body can be stopped from doing complaint. It is not like other backward states.
If there is 100% increse in Rape rate in Gujarat, still it will remain lowest rape state in India as other states are much ahead in Rape case compare to gujarat. Gujarat is a state where laddies can roam free any time.
