Dalits are with BJP; Mayawati saw them only as vote bank: Baby Rani Maurya
In the recent UP elections, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra of Congress was fighting on the issue of ‘I can fight a girl’. How did you see this sloganeering as a woman?
I think there is no need for any girl to say ‘I am a girl, can fight’. Every girl is a Shakti (divine energy) in her own right. She has so much power that whatever she decides, she can achieve with her determination. Where is the need to make such a statement? I think maybe Gandhi Vadra was low on morale and that’s why he made such statements. Woman is born with many qualities. But we never say that since I am a woman my job is to fight. I have been a mayor, governor and a member of the National Commission for Women. However, it did mean that my job was just to fight.
Mayawati formed a full-fledged government in 2007. Since then his graph has come down. He was seen as the messiah of Dalits. Has he done enough for the community?
Mayawati has not lived up to the expectations of Dalits. He had high hopes for her. She hoped that as Chief Minister she would take steps to uplift her status socially and economically. But she considered Dalits only as her vote bank and used them for her personal gains. He neither built any hospital or educational institution nor opened any training center for him or the common people. As a result, Dalits were soon looking for better alternatives by standing at the do-rahe (crossroads). Soon he chose BJP which understands how Mayawati did injustice to him. We took them along and did everything possible for their betterment. Dalits are with us now and you must have seen how the community, especially the Jatavs, voted for the BJP in these elections as well.
But some people feel that BJP is anti-Dalit in its ideology.
Calling BJP anti-Dalit is absolutely wrong. Take my example. He has given me so many responsibilities. I was the mayor (of Agra) and now a cabinet minister. I am in a position to take all necessary steps for the benefit of Dalit children and women. BJP is doing this and that is why Dalits have chosen BJP over BSP. We will do everything for the upliftment of Dalits.
Do you think a separate ministry is needed for the upliftment of Dalits?
Only Dalits will be backward from this. All our schemes are also for Dalits. Will the children of Dalits not benefit from the schools built by the government? Will Dalit families not benefit from hospitals? Will they not use the same roads built by the government? By this (viewing her as a vote bank), Mayawati pushed Dalits back for many, many years. I want to see Dalits as a part of the mainstream (mainstream). Dalits should see themselves as less equal and part of Hinduism.
Talking about the representation of Dalits, they are only 8% cabinet ministers, while they are 21% of the population. Has the government done enough?
We should wait for some time before coming to any conclusion. His role will only increase with time. The cabinet has just been formed. There are many like Asim Arunji and Gulab Devi Ji in the cabinet. BJP takes every decision very carefully and keeping in mind the benefit of Dalits. Our representation may be less but the programs of their upliftment will continue without any hindrance.
What is your vision for the welfare of women and child development for the next five years?
I want to examine the issues closely before making any statement but of course I want to work towards improving the health of children. I want to improve the nutritional level of the diet given to school children. Similarly, I will ensure the empowerment of women. Nari Shakti Mission is important for Modiji. Women’s economic independence is essential. I will take action for this. they should be able to make their own
Take decisions and be a part of the economy.
You are talking about women taking their own decisions, but in many places in UP, there is no power in the hands of elected women members of local bodies. Their spouses call the shots. Would you do anything to change that?
Certainly, I want to end this practice. Whenever I visit a village I make sure that the woman who is chosen should be in the ceremony and not the “Pradhan Pati”. At times they sit reluctantly with the long veil. I tell everyone clearly that people have chosen a woman.
How do you see the transition from governor to being part of active politics?
I have always wanted to serve people. I am glad that the party has given me an active role to serve directly to the people – especially for the welfare of women and children. This is something close to my heart.
congress: Judges should act against probe agencies too: Congress
Ramana, while delivering a lecture on ‘Democracy: Role and Responsibilities of Investigating Agencies’ on the foundation day of CBI on Friday, had also called for bringing central investigating agencies under an independent umbrella body.
The Congress leadership said the CJI and other judges of the Supreme Court should go beyond strong words to act.
“The truth which the CJI must understand, and it is for every citizen to see, is that the CBI, ED (Enforcement Directorate) and Income Tax (Department) are puppets of the BJP and (Narendra) Modi government. AICC spokesperson Randeep Surjewala alleged Accusing the central agencies of acting at the behest of the ruling establishment, Surjewala alleged, now that Modi ji and BJP go to contest elections, the first to come is the CBI, ED and IT.
ipl: Everything you need to know about IPL media rights
What is on offer and how much can BCCI actually earn from the rights?
The TV and digital rights of IPL are being offered for the period 2023 to 2027. These include the rights to broadcast the IPL on both television and digital platforms in India and around the world. The BCCI has divided the rights into four different buckets and set a base price for each bucket.
- The most lucrative bucket is the television rights for the IPL in India, with a base price of Rs 18,130 crore, calculated based on 74 games for the next five years. The base price fixed for each game is Rs 90 crore, which is almost double the current valuation of the property. The BCCI reserves the right to increase the number of games and as such the assessment may be modified pro-rata.
- The second bucket includes digital rights to property in India and the base value has been fixed at Rs 12,200 crore. The high valuation of digital rights is an indication of the increasing popularity of digital media and the rapid change in the consumption patterns of the people.
- The third bucket holds the rights to 18 games, including the opener and four play-off matches. This only applies to streaming services with a single platform, which are given the option of opting for this bundle. This is a new addition, and as BCCI secretary Jay Shah tweeted on March 29, 2022, it is an attempt to “not only revenue maximization but value maximisation”. The base price of this bucket has been kept at Rs 1,440 crore.
- The fourth bundle is overseas TV and digital rights, which is expected to fetch a minimum of Rs 1,100 crore to the BCCI.
An informed estimate based on past practices suggests that BCCI should get at least 1.3-1.5 times the base price, which in this case amounts to a total of Rs 45,000-50,000 crore.
Can one make a joint bid for the rights the way Star Sports did in the previous cycle?
No, composite bids have been terminated and no company can now place composite bids. While a company can actually bid for all buckets, each of these bids will be treated as separate bids and the winner will be decided on the basis of the highest bid in each category.
How is the process different from what happened last time?
There are two fundamental differences from what happened last time in 2017. The first, as noted above, is that composite bids have been eliminated. Had it been implemented in 2017, Sony, which had the highest bid for the TV, would have retained the rights to the television and Facebook would have walked away from the digital rights. Star only managed to get the rights because a composite bid was allowed.
The second third is the introduction of Bucket, which allows a streaming platform to acquire non-exclusive rights to 18 games per season. With the addition of openers and playoffs in this bucket, it is a good proposition for the cricket pie to have multiple platforms and is going to bring BCCI top dollar.
Could there be a scenario where different companies end up with different buckets on offer?
Absolutely. Such a scenario is possible and very likely. For foreign rights, for example, there is certainly a possibility of a different buyer than the rights taker for Indian territory. Again, there is also the potential for a bidding war between multiple streaming platforms, for the non-exclusive rights to 18 games. As a result, IPL 2023 is consumed on multiple platforms in India and the world.
When is the decision expected?
There will be an e-auction for each bucket and each auction will be held on June 12, 2022, with the winners expected to be announced on the same day.
Watching films on tiny screens: An insincere rant
Watching RRR would also be a small step in atonement for the blasphemy – and simultaneous hypocrisy – that I have often indulged in. For years, I’ve given pedantic lectures to friends about the horrors of watching movies—especially certain types of movies—on a lot. small screen. I list all the usual arguments, grumbling that anyone who watches a film like this is only involved in it at the plot level, without registering any of the visual qualities that make it a cinema. I quote from essays. (Pauline Kell: ‘Reduced to the Dead Grays of a Suspended Television Print, the Magnificent Emberson is as lifeless as a newspaper wirephoto of a great painting.’)
And yet: Throughout my career as a nerd, I’ve seen countless movies – especially older movies – in less than optimal conditions. On video cassettes, on TVs, finally on laptop screens.
In the 1980s, my family rarely went to theatres. Hence, even mediocre films thus watched now seem larger than life in the eyes of my mind. An indelible memory of my multi-starrer-obsessed childhood is a scene from the long-forgotten 1986 Dosti Dushmani directed by Tatineni Rama Rao where the three protagonists – Jeetendra, Rajinikanth, Rishi Kapoor – ride their bikes, singing friendship renditions. Huh.
On the other hand, I shudder to think that I watched visually ambitious films like Mukul S Anand’s 1991 Hum video cassette, with animated underwear ads running across the bottom of the screen. Or that my passion for Old Hollywood — which includes widescreen-format movies whose use of space is integral to their impact — is built around watching TV.
Recently, I was comforted by a video featuring Martin Scorsese. She and critic Mark Kermode are discussing the 1947 classic Black Narcissus, a film directed by Michael Powell and Emerick Pressberger about a group of British nuns in the Himalayas. ‘I saw it for the first time,’ says Scorsese, ‘on black-and-white TV.’ Karmode shakes his head in disbelief. Both men break down. And anyone who knows this movie will understand why.
Bright, bold, immaculate in its use of color, featuring spectacular matte paintings as a stand-in for the Indian landscape, and some shocking moments that focus on color effects (such as a character’s red-hued makeup) Well, Black Narcissus hardly made any sense in monochrome. The present day – where one might watch Heaven Forbid, a Blade Runner 2049 or a Dune on the phone – seems particularly conducive to watching crimes (even without this plague us movie halls). keep out). And yet, that Scorsese interview is a reminder that for much of film history, many serious movie buffs have seen great movies in inappropriate circumstances.
Even within the big screen experience, there have been terrible traditions such as the one (in the US) where audiences come to a screening at any time, watch until the end, and then capture what they have missed. The next show, thus effectively turning a regular narrative film into a proto-Christopher Nolan puzzle. (It was also the catalyst for Alfred Hitchcock’s famous advice, while denying viewers a mid-screening entry: ‘We’ve found that Psycho is unlike most movies. It doesn’t improve when running backwards.’)
I once experienced a version of it when I saw Sholay on the big screen as a kid. Because my thoughtless family was 15 minutes late, I initially caught only a small portion of the train-attack flashbacks, and remained confused for years about the story’s chronology. So, does this mean that I will stop lecturing friends? Not really, because I have a trump card. I have never seen a movie on the phone, not even a short film. This is a limit that I have no intention of crossing. There may not be a huge difference between a laptop screen and a smartphone screen, but as tennis commentators say, it’s a game of inches.
In the meantime I’m hoping a fingernail-sized viewing device isn’t on the way.
