  • WORTH of MINISTERS Union Ministers Have Shared Information Regarding Their Moveable and Immovable Properties with Prime Minister Narendra Modi
    WORTH OF MINISTERS Union ministers have shared information regarding their moveable and immovable properties with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Some of these numbers vary from those filed in the affidavits before the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. Railway Minister Sadananda Gowda, for example, recorded the largest increase in assets. The Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR) claims most ministers have not declared the true worth of their assets to the Prime Minister’s Office. Here is a snapshot of the comparison of the numbers by ADR: MINISTERS WHO SHOWED AN INCREASE OF MORE THAN ~50 LAKH IN ASSETS MINISTERS WHO HAD NOT CONTESTED THE LOK SABHA ELECTIONS IN 2014 Piyush Goyal Minister of state — power (independent charge), coal (independent charge), new D V Sadananda Radhakrishnan P Arun Jaitley Upendra and renewable energy (independent charge) Gowda Minister of state Cabinet minister— finance, Kushwaha ASSETS AS DECLARED TO PMO: ~94 crore+ Cabinet minister — Railways (independent charge) — corporate affairs and Minister of state (independent *ASSETS DECLARED IN POLLS: ~30 crore+ ASSETS AS DECLARED TO PMO : heavy industries and public defence charge) — rural development, CHANGE: ~20 crore+ enterprises ASSETS AS DECLARED TO PMO: panchayati raj, drinking water ~64 crore and sanitation INCREASE: 212% ASSETS DECLARED IN POLLS: ASSETS AS DECLARED TO PMO: ~114 crore+ ~9 crore+ ~7 crore+ ASSETS DECLARED IN POLLS: ASSETS AS DECLARED TO ASSETS DECLARED IN POLLS: ~113 crore+ PMO:~3 crore+ Ravi Shankar Prasad Cabinet minister — CHANGE: ~10 crore+ communications

    INSTITUTE OF STRATEGIC STUDIES ISLAMABAD Web: www.issi.org.pk ISSUE BRIEF Phone: +92-51-9204423, 24 Fax: +92-51-9204658 MODI’S (PARTIAL) KASHMIR CONFERENCE: LITTLE HOPE AND MORE FEARS By Muhammad Ali Baig Research Associate India Study Centre (ISC), ISSI Edited by Dr Saif ur Rehman Malik July 5, 2021 (Views expressed in the brief are those of the author, and do not represent those of ISSI) On June 24, 2021, the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi had a meeting with the partial and selected pro-India political leadership of the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) in New Delhi. It was the first political engagement by the ruling Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in nearly 2 years following the revocation of Articles 370 and 35A of the Indian Constitution on August 5, 2019, and a strict lockdown and suspension of civil liberties that followed. The latter denied IIOJK of the autonomy and the special status guaranteed constitutionally. In the almost 3-hour long meeting, PM Modi was flanked by his close aide Minister of Home Affairs Amit Shah, and the Lieutenant Governor of IIOJK Manoj Sinha. The selected pro-India leadership of the IIOJK comprised of 14 politicians including Mehbooba Mufti of the Jammu and Kashmir Peoples Democratic party (JKPDP), Farooq Abdullah and his son Omar Abdullah of the Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC), and Ghulam Nabi Azad of the Indian National Congress (INC). Farooq Abdullah of the JKNC is also the President of the electoral alliance named as the People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) which seeks the restoration of IIOJK’s statehood.
