Lok Sabha Polls 2024: Fatehpur Sikri Braces for Fierce Electoral Battle | Oneindia News

Home to the revered shrine of Sufi saint Salim Chishti and the imposing red sandstone fortress built by Emperor Akbar, Fatehpur Sikri stands as a testament to the grandeur of the Mughal era.

In the upcoming elections, the Fatehpur Sikri seat finds itself delicately poised, with both the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress party setting their sights on clinching victory.

The Congress, contesting 17 seats in Uttar Pradesh as part of its alliance with the Samajwadi Party under the INDIA bloc, has fielded Ramnath Sikarwar, popularly known as 'Fauji Baba,' to take on the BJP's sitting MP, Rajkumar Chahar.

Chahar, who had secured a resounding victory in 2019 by defeating Raj Babbar, the then-state Congress president, with a margin of five lakh votes, faces twin challenges this time around.

Not only is he grappling with internal party conflicts over his candidature, but he also finds himself confronted with significant anti-incumbency sentiment.

Pankaj Mishra, Imran Shah and Rajender Bhandari visited Fatehpur Sikri report.

Nimisha Priya Case: Grand Mufti Break Silence on Saving Nimisha Priya | Blood Money Appeal?

Nimisha Priya’s execution in Yemen has been officially postponed following the intervention of Kerala-based Islamic scholar Sheikh Abubakr Ahmad, Grand Mufti. Acting out of a sense of national responsibility, he reached out to renowned Yemeni Sufi scholar Habib Umar bin Hafeez, who initiated talks with legal authorities and the victim’s family. A high-level emergency meeting was held, and key figures, including judges and tribal leaders, got involved. As a result, the Yemeni court issued an order to delay the execution, bringing renewed hope for a possible resolution. #NimishaPriya #ExecutionDelayed #SheikhAbubakrAhmad #YemenNews #BreakingNews #SaveNimishaPriya #KeralaNews #LegalIntervention #HopeForNimisha #ExecutionStay #JusticeMatters #BreakingUpdates #WorldNewsToday #OneIndiaNews

Trump ORDERS Release Of Full Epstein Documents | Pushes To Declassify Epstein’s DARKEST Secrets [Video]

Trump ORDERS Release Of Full Epstein Documents | Pushes To Declassify Epstein’s DARKEST Secrets

Donald Trump has ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to release all relevant grand jury documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein case — days after outrage erupted over a Wall Street Journal report alleging Trump sent Epstein a nude-themed birthday greeting. Trump blasted the story as “fake” and promised to sue WSJ, accusing them of printing “malicious lies.” The renewed push for transparency comes after mounting pressure from Trump loyalists demanding the infamous Epstein “client list” be made public. Bondi confirmed she’s prepared to move the court to unseal grand jury files. However, legal experts caution that court approval is still needed for any release. It remains unclear which cases the documents pertain to — Epstein’s 2006 charges or the 2019 federal s#x trafficking indictment. The move reignites the political firestorm surrounding Epstein’s powerful connections and the lack of transparency in the government’s handling of his case. #Trump #EpsteinFiles #JeffreyEpstein #EpsteinClientList #PamBondi #DOJ #TrumpVsWSJ #GhislaineMaxwell #FakeNews #GrandJury #FlightLogs #EpsteinCoverup #WSJScandal #TruthSocial #EpsteinDeath #TrumpOrdersRelease #UnsealTheDocs #EpsteinInvestigation #TrumpLawsuit #Murdoch Also Read Slip Of Tongue!
