he elections to the three tier panchayat bodies, already Tdelayed by over three months, are set to be a semifinal before the crucial UP assembly polls in March 2022. The pan- chayat elections are crucial for both the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party and the Samajwadi Party as the elected members of pan- chayat bodies constitute the electoral college for 35 seats from local body constituency in the UP Legislative council. The SP enjoys a majority in the Upper House of UP legislature while the ruling BJP is desperate to gain majority in the Legislative Council. The results of panchayat elections, which are invariably scheduled close to assembly polls, are regarded as a measure of the strengths and weaknesses of political parties. These elec- tions, barring those to elect zila panchayat representatives, are not fought on party symbols. Expectedly, the major play- ers hotly contest the results as the outcome loosely defines political allegiances in the villages. Among UP's major parties, the BJP alone has plunged into the coming panchayat polls with diligence. The BJP regards it as a ‘curtain raiser’ to the 2022 assembly polls, while the SP, which is claiming to come to power in the 2022 UP assembly elections, is hesitant to admit it, while the Bahujan Samaj Party, the third angle of the UP triangle, has kept typ- ically mum. The SP contends that rather than investing time and ener- gy on panchayat elections, it would conserve them for the big battle. But party insiders concede that the SP is tardy in taking on the BJP for the past four years. They say the pan- chayat elections might expose more inadequacies than the party can cope with and demoralise the cadre. For the SP, the ongoing farmers' protest is a silver lining as it hopes that the discontent in rural areas over the three farm laws will help it. The farmers’ agitation has spilled over to most of western Uttar Pradesh and SP and its ally Rashtriya Lok Dal have organised kisan panchayats in eastern and cen- tral UP districts. Leaving little to chance, the BJP has embarked on a ‘rural connect’ programme which Radha Mohan Singh, a former Union minister and Bihar MP who is the designated UP in- charge, is monitoring along with the state functionaries. The BJP’s fears the SP, which prides itself as the authentic rural entity and the rest as “pretenders”, might propagate the per- ception again. The SP plans to flag Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's seat de-reservation move as an issue that mil- itate against the rights of the Other Backward Classes (OBCs) and Dalits. The BJP’s ‘over-investment’ of time and energy in the pan- chayat elections, likely in March, is being seen as the party’s rehearsal for the 2022 Uttar Pradesh assembly polls. Observers say the BJP is preparing the ground for 2022 by using the rural polls as a ‘test’ match. “The BJP is only trying to keep the organisation machinery oiled and activated for the 2022 battle by keep- ing party workers engaged in the panchayat elections that will be followed by the indirect polls for the post of zila panchay- at and kshetra panchayat chairpersons,” a BJP leader point- ed out. The BJP, even before the 2014 elections, has been working hard to make a foray into rural areas by building the party organisation up to the booth level. BJP’s panchayat election incharge Vijay Bahadur Pathak said, “The number of villagers who participated in every vil- lage chaupal has been increasing the enthusiasm of the BJP. The public is excited about the achievements of the Central and state governments. They have faith in both the govern- ments and hope that only qualified candidates can do wel- fare of the public.”  &      ! Lucknow (PNS): Considering the success of the Mission Shakti Abhiyan for safety, dignity and self-reliance of women, the Yogi Adityanath government has decided to launch the second phase of this campaign from April for which the district magistrates of the state have been direct- ed to prepare a road map for the next one year and submit it to the Women Welfare Department by March 31. “Separate action plans will be prepared for the issues relat- ed to women and children,” a government spokesman said. He said after the launch of Mission Shakti, women and the girls were becoming aware of their legal rights and gov- ernment schemes. “Women and children still face discrimination and gen- der inequality related issues in many areas. In such a situa- tion, effective communication has an important role in help- ing them overcome those situations. Keeping this in mind, a special social and behaviour change communication mod- ule has been prepared,” said Manoj Kumar Rai, Director, Women Welfare Department and Nodal Officer of Mission Shakti.                                                                                                                                                                                   !

n the wake of the rising number of novel coron- Iavirus infections in Uttar Pradesh and other parts of the country, the Yogi Adityanath government has issued fresh guidelines for compliance of the Covid protocol during the Holi festival and panchayat elec- tions. Covid test has been made mandatory for the persons coming to UP from the states where the inci- dence of novel coronavirus infection is high. All the schools up to class 8 will be closed from March 24 to March 31. Other educational institutions, barring medical and nursing colleges, will be closed for the Holi festival from March 25 to 31, while examina- tions will be allowed, if being held. UP Chief Secretary Rajendra Kumar Tiwari issued orders on Tuesday that no procession would be taken out without the prior permission of the dis- trict administration. He said the organisers of the procession would be responsible for the compliance of the Covid protocol like social distancing, use of masks, and would ensure the availability of sanitis- er. The order restricts persons above the age of 60 years and children below 10 years from participat- ing in procession. The government has issued new guidelines keeping in mind the spike in novel coro- navirus infections in the state. In view of Holi, liquor parties and rain dance parties have been banned in the entire state. The district magistrates and district police chiefs have been directed to prevent liquor parties and rain dance parties. The order also restricts the number of visitors in police training schools and other training centres. According to the order, contract tracing will be further intensified. The Yogi government has ordered that the Covid help desk be activated again and Covid dedicated hospitals are being revived. Earlier on Monday, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had decided in a high-level meeting to announce Holi holidays in all government and pri- vate schools from classes one to eight from March 24 to 31 and in other educational institutions where examinations were not being held from March 25 to 31. /          ' 

  7@1=> he Covid vaccination of jail inmates across the Tstate was carried out on Tuesday. A senior offi- cial from National Health Mission said the vacci- nation drive for the jail inmates would continue on Wednesday. “We hope to vaccinate the jail inmates aged 45-60 years in two days,” he said. Meanwhile, the Central government’s nod to the vaccination of people aged above 45 years from April 1 has spelt relief for those waiting to get them- selves vaccinated. A senior health official said they are now wait- ing for the Central government directives in this regard. “We have been in favour of this because maximum number of professionals moving out in the field belong to this age group and they have been exposed to the risk of contracting infection,” he said. He added that it would help in curbing the spread of coronavirus. The state government had recently made sug- gestions to the Centre for vaccination of people aged above 50 years irrespective of whether or not they have co-morbidities. President of People’s Health Organisation Dr Ishwar Gilada also welcomed the Central govern- ment’s decision. “With the current guidelines of pri- oritising people with co-morbidities in the 45-60 age bracket, there were a lot of issues. There is also a glitch in the CoWIN app at the time of entering data at the vaccination centres. This new guideline has come as a saviour for the medical communi- ty,” he added. District immunisation officer Dr MK Singh said that a total of 6,508 people were vaccinated in the district, including 3,245 senior citizens and 1,241 those aged above 45 years with co-morbidi- ties. Besides, 576 frontline workers were given the first vaccine dose while 551 the second. As for health workers, 660 received the first dose while 233 the second.     !"#!$!%  '  '  Q )  ! ; .'
