Red Fort handed to Corporates!

-
The Modi Government has leased the iconic Red Fort to Dalmia Bharat Group. The group has bought it for a whooping sum of 25 crores for a period of five years in the name of conserving and developing it.
Now, it is the government's responsibility to maintain the historic monuments of the country. They have started taking huge amounts of money from us in the form of taxes. But none of it is being used for 'conserving monuments' and the monuments are being sold to corporate firms, who eventually starts using these monuments for profitable activities. ðŸ˜¡

A new cabinet has taken oath on Saturday. Now you all may be wondering- "Which cabinet is he taking about? There are a few more days left for the Karnataka election". No, I am not talking about the Karnataka government. I am talking about a shadow cabinet that has been formed in Kerala.  There is not much reported by the media about it, as usual, but the shadow cabinet has been formed with the aim of monitoring government decisions and making it 'public-friendly'.

When asked why they are doing so, they said they want to attain equilibrium with the United States of America (USA). Now, think about this. The first world war took place because of military superiority. Britain was a superior country in terms of military power. Germany wanted to achieve equilibrium with Britain. What I am trying to say is even DPRK is following the path of Germany of that time. If this issue continues, there is going to be serious issues which can even wipe out human beings from Earth. The United Nations Security Council should not only take strict action against DPRK, but should also make necessary decisions and  put it in the form of a resolution that all countries, irrespective of its size or population maintain an army as prescribed by the Security Council. In this way, we can prevent a possible Third world

This came as a shocker for all the Sri Lankans and caused a widespread protest and riots. Sirisena was known to be a gentle person and little did they know that he was a 'wolf disguised in a sheep's clothing'. Maithripala Sirisena The fact to be noted is that the nation’s President and Prime Minister come from traditionally opposing parties that formed a surprise coalition in 2015 to oust the then-president Mahinda Rajapaksa, who many feared was becoming too powerful. In the past two years, this ruling coalition has started to fall apart. It is dysfunctional and unpopular with the Sri Lankan public. Since at least February this year, president Maithripala Sirisena has been searching for ways to remove the prime minister, Ranil Wickremasinghe. On October 26th, he
