Tariq Anwar flays Modi's 'Pakistani agent' remark on Kerjiwal

Katihar: The NCP on Thursday flayed BJP prime ministerial hopeful Narendra Modi for making the "Pakistani agent" remark on AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal and said it reflects his desperation to grab power by all means.


"Modi has made slanderous remarks against Kerjiwal after being rattled by the AAP leader, who generated massive support in Varanasi in his favour, following his decision to contest against the BJP's PM nominee from there," Union Minister of State for Agriculture and Food Processing Tariq Anwar told reporters in reply to a question.

The Gujarat Chief Minister appeared to be befuddled by his rival from Varanasi drawing huge support from the people of the temple city, prompting the former to make baseless remarks against the AAP leader, he said.

"The BJP PM hopeful is fearful of a looming defeat from Varanasi and that is why he is contesting from another seat - Vadodara in Gujarat," the NCP leader said.

Anwar, who is contesting from the Katihar Lok Sabha seat under the umbrella of a RJD-Congress-NCP alliance, exuded confidence about his victory from here and said the constituents would reward him for his consistent fight against communal forces.

Indian, Pakistani women aim to create colours of hope

New Delhi: Five women artists from Pakistan and four contemporary Indian artists will feature in an exhibition that begins here March 28 with an aim to display a "language of unity and love".

Organised by Empowerment, an NGO that advocates using art and culture as tools for social change, the six-day exhibition titled "Colours of Hope" is based on the core idea of creating a sense of amalgamation.

Apart from exhibiting three works each, Pakistani artists Ayesha Durrani, Fizza Salem, Amna Ilyas, Romessa Khan and Mariam Khan, and Indian artists Gogi Saroj Pal, Seema Kohli, Nupur Kundu and Sonika Agarwal will also create a 10-metre-long canvas on the theme "Colour of Hope".

"It (exhibition) focuses on a few intangible factors like share, emotion, peace, feminism and love. Share is one of the main things the exhibition is hoping to promote," an official statement said Wednesday.

The exhibition, to be mounted at the Indian Council for Cultural Relations, will end April 2.
