Savitribai Phule's Poem: And you yearn not for the same

 And you yearn not for the same,

You posses intellect but work not on the same,
How then can you be called a human being?
Birds, animals, monkeys, human beings too,
All go through life and death
But if you gain no knowledge about this,
How then can you be called a human being?

That would be a criminal offence (bribery under Section 171B of the IPC + violation of the Model Code of Conduct) and the Election Commission’s flying squads have seized only cash meant for illegal distribution, not ₹10,000 gifts.

In 6–7 instalments: 26 Sep (75 lakh), 3 Oct (25 lakh), 17/24/31 Oct (10–12 lakh each), next on 7 Nov (4 days before Phase-2 polling). Purpose (official): Start a micro-business (kirana, tailoring, animal husbandry, etc.). Why the opposition calls it...
