Bypoll
shocker for Congress Hisar Bypoll Analysis Chandigarh, October 17 The BJP-HJC combine and the Indian National Lok Dal both have won the Hisar Lok Sabha byelection! Sounds strange but it’s true. They have achieved the objective for which they contested the election. For these parties, the byelection was an opportunity to prove their existence in Haryana politics, which they have done convincingly. |

Fauja
Singh, a 100-year-old runner of Indian-origin has set a new Guinness
record of being the oldest person to complete a full-distance marathon
here. It took Fauja Singh over eight hours to cross the finish line,
more than six hours after Kenya’s Kenneth Mungara won the Scotiabank
Toronto Waterfront Marathon yesterday for the fourth straight year.
Albeit
a little late, Rajasthan’s controversial minister Mahipal Maderna,
suspected to be involved in the case of mysterious disappearance of
nurse Bhanwari Devi, has been shown the door by Chief Minister Ashok
Gehlot. However, this not the first and most certainly will not be the
last time when one of our “illustrious” politicians has created an
embarrassing situation for his party and also those who elected him,
courtesy his wayward behavior.
