Ever since the CBI arrest of Sahara group journalist Upendra Rai, a new layer of the case is revealing every other day. It is believed that it’s all a tactic to target Karti and P Chidambaram and reopen the pages of 2G scam. If sources are to be believed, journalist Rai is said to own around Rs 800-crore properties including a collection of over 30 luxury cars. Sources tell that a jillion dossiers linked to government departments and their service files were raided from Rai. Anyhow, Rai is said to be on the hit-list of not only the ED but also the CBI for a long time now.

Time changed, the power at Delhi changed, and so did the political trends. Sangh was never as powerful as it seems today and so the saffron clan is worried about its documentations. Whilst the Congress held its flag at the Delhi throne and was busy its Left-Centre politics, Communist historians painted red the pages of history and literatures. Now ever since the Modi government has come to power at the Centre, Sangh and BJP have starting putting a quote of saffron over all of it. It can be recalled that during the Vajpayee government of the BJP, a committee was formed under the leadership of known Hindi journalist Dinanath Mishra and knowingly or unknowingly the responsibility of documentation of the works of BJP and Sangh. Crores were invested on this project, but the desired results were not achieved. Under the guidance of Mishra, Nitish Bharadwaj even created a movie, highlighting saffron visions, and its ‘preview’ was also organised in Delhi. But the saffron think tanks were not convinced and pointed out flaws, and Bharadwaj was asked to reshoot it. Even after so much brainstorming, the result was nowhere fruitful and the ambitious movie faded away.
Now to re-ink the fictions of new age, the Sangh has roped in the famous writer of Bahubali film KV Vijayendra Prasad to make a mega budget film on them. Sources reveal that the film’s budget has been marked around Rs 180 crore. Apart from this, many Bollywood biggies are inspired to make movies on Modi, Sangh and BJP, among which everyone is awaiting Jai Om Prakash Mehra’s film around the life of Modi. Many independent filmmakers have been asked to make a film of this effect. Several ministries have kept their doors open for funding such films. Apart from this, the work of penning a new history is also in progress. So, in the days to come, the face of the country may change or not, but its mood is set to change.

There is a storm raging within BJP amid a controversy over renaming of the Dyal Singh (Evening) College of Delhi. Sangh think tank and former BJP spokesperson Amitabh Sinha, who is also the institution’s chairman, had renamed the college as ‘Vande Mataram Dyal Singh College’ – a step which was criticised by union HRD minister Prakash Javadekar, saying that no matter what the name of the college will not change. So now questions are being raised from within the BJP and the Sangh that why Javadekar is making such a great deal out of this matter, whereas this drill is not to change the name of the college, but to just add Vande Mataram before it. Sources reveal that the statements from Javadekar are words put in his mouth by Union MoS Harsimrat Kaur Badal, who does not want any tampering with the legacy of Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, the founder of Dyal Singh College. Sardar Dyal Singh was one of the major social reformers in his era. He not only brought many revolutionary changes in the field of education, but also established many schools and colleges. He was also the founder of the Tribune newspaper and Punjab National Bank. Sources say that Harsimrat wants to reestablish the image of her brother Vikram Singh Majithia who is said to belong to Dyal Singh’s family. And with this hidden agenda, the brother-sister duo wants to shine alongside Dyal Singh’s legacy.
