Paper’ ‘leak’ at Gujarat Ayurved University: Students’ wings of 3 political parties stage protests | Ahmedabad News

Published by Parlour News

The Shalya Tantra-1 (surgical methods) paper of the Bachelor of Ayurveda Medicine and Surgery – suspected to have leaked – had been put through the two-person authentication system. On Wednesday, several student organisations, including the RSS-backed Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and the Congress’s National Students Union of India (NSUI), organised protests over the issue. They demanded an investigation and immediate action against those responsible. On July 20, five days before a nationwide agitation led by the Cockroach Janta Party and activists against the NEET paper leaks led to the resignation of senior BJP leader Dharmendra Pradhan as Union education minister, a suspected “paper leak” alert went up from Gujarat’s capital, Gandhinagar. A flying squad of invigilators suddenly dropped into Shree Balahanuman Ayurved Mahavidyalaya in Mansa, Gandhinagar, one of 26 colleges in the state, where the Shalya Tantra-1 paper of third year students of Bachelor of Ayurveda Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) was underway. A professor from the Government Ayurved College in Junagadh, who was part of the squad, learnt that there was a text message …

‘Op Devendra’ vs ‘can’t clip my wings’: Uddhav-Fadnavis face-off amid Sena rebellion

Published by Parlour News

A fresh exchange of barbs unfolded in Maharashtra over the weekend amid an ongoing rebellion in Uddhav Thackeray’s faction of Shiv Sena. Hours after Thackeray claimed that the defection of his faction’s MPs was engineered to keep Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis in check, the BJP leader hit back, saying since he doesn’t have wings, nobody can clip them. Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis (R) hit back at Uddhav Thackeray’s ‘Operation Devendra’ remarks. As Uddhav Thackeray toured the constituencies of the six UBT Sena MPs who recently defected to the Eknath Shinde-led Sena, he said that ‘Operation Devendra’ was at play and was used to orchestrate the exit of the lawmakers. “The MPs were taken away when there were no elections. Why did they not join the BJP? I suspect this is actually ‘Operation Devendra’,” he said, further adding that Union minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah might have carried it out to “keep Fadnavis at a certain level so that he does not enter the (future) race for the prime minister’s post”. Reacting …

File. | Photo Credit: PTI Asserting that he has the blessings of Maharashtra’s 14 crore people and senior leaders of the BJP, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Sunday (June 28, 2026) said nobody can clip his wings, making light of Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray’s “Operation Devendra” remarks. He also dismissed the political buzz triggered after he and former ally-turned-rival, Uddhav Thackeray, travelled on the same flight from Mumbai to Nagpur on Friday (June 26, 2026), claiming it was a “coincidence”. Reacting to the intense speculation in state political circles, Mr. Fadnavis termed it “vedyancha bazaar” (mad market), noting that it was nothing unusual for two leaders to travel on the same flight. Mr. Fadnavis also made light of Mr. Thackerey’s “Operation Devendra” remark, saying since he doesn’t have wings, nobody can clip them.
