Bihar RSS leader abducted from Agra

Vijay Upadhyay
Agra. The disappearance of a Bihar based RSS leader from Agra had the police departments of both Agra and Patna racking their brains on Wednesday.

RSS leader Abhijeet Kashyap, who was also a prominent businessman of Patna and the owner of a gas agency in the town, had arrived in Agra from Patna on 9th April to attend a national conference of Sanskar Bharti, an RSS frontal organisation and on 10th April, Kashyap left Agra in a taxi to Tundla, from where he had to board the train back home.

When the train reached Patna on Tuesday, the family of the RSS leader began calling Kashyap's mobile phone that remained switched off through the entire day but Kashyap's daughter continued trying to call on the phone that finally got switched on by late evening and answering the call, Kashyap confirmed that he had been abducted and that he did not know where he was at that time. Immediately afterwards, the phone got disconnected and has continued to remain switched off since then.

Talking to The Pioneer, Bankey Lal, Secretary, Sanskar Bharti said that Mr. Kashyap could not board the train as he had been kidnapped from the taxi in which he had hired a ride to Tundla.

Woman torched to death by inlaws on International Women's Day in India

AGRA.               It could serve as a well-placed slap in the face of the the groups of so-called women's rights activists who all too recently celebrated International Women’s Day, fervently praising the contribution made by women to the society and vowing to prevent violence against the feminine gender comfortably ensconced in luxurious clubs and hotels.    While the world was busy celebrating women’s day, a young girl was murdered in cold-blood, torched to death by her in-laws in Kayamganj town of Farrukhabad district of Uttar Pradesh, alongwith a 6-month fetus inside her, just three years after marriage.    Two weeks have passed since the grisly murder but the local police appears to be in no hurry to catch the absconding in-laws who doused the girl in kerosene and left her to burn and die on the street, making good their escape while the locals awaited for the police to arrive. Meanwhile, the victim’s mother Archana Sharma has suffered from a strok

My views on Libya, India and the permanent SC seat

On Wednesday, the British government 'de-recognized' the Gaddafi government and decided that it was in the interest of democracy to recognize the Libyan rebels as the only legal representative of the Libyan people. Immediately after that, the British Police entered the Libyan embassy in London and forced the remaining Libyan diplomats out of UK. France has already been parachuting modern weaponry, arms and ammunition to the Libyan rebel strongholds and both France and the United States have recognized the rebels as the legal Libyan representative power. While I am not a fan of Gaddafi or his regime in any way or form but I am equally disappointed in NATO's tactics and the double standards being played by the western powers in the Arab world. Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein had been two sore patches in the otherwise near-sweeping 'western conquest' of the Arab world and its oil. Only now, when a group of disenchanted Libyans, trained and provided for by wes

Vishal Sharma / Agra December 29, 2008, 0:00 IST Govardhan Udyog plans to use cowdung to produce particle board. Faced with the task of developing environment-friendly technology for industry due to guidelines issued by the Supreme Court, entrepreneurs in Agra are realising the cost-effective potential of such technologies and innovations. Govardhan Udyog is one such unit which plans to use a non-conventional raw material, cowdung, to produce particle board and pharmaceutical products. The unit was inaugurated this week on the Agra-Delhi national highway near the Mathura refinery, about 55 km from Agra. Company sources said the basic raw material used in the manufacture of particle board will be cow dung. This will perhaps make it the first particle board manufacturing facility using cowdung as the raw material. Govardhan Udyog Managing Director SK Mittal said particle boards were emerging as a viable alternative in designing office furniture and automation products in the country as c
