Published: Mar 11 2025, 2 ameznews.inMaharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has expressed support for the removal of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb's tomb in Khuldabad, but emphasized that any action must comply with legal frameworks, as the site is protected under the Archaeological Society of India (ASI) due to a previous Congress government decision.

The controversy heightened after Samajwadi Party MLA Abu Azmi praised Aurangzeb, leading to his suspension from the Maharashtra assembly and police complaints against him. Azmi defended Aurangzeb as a capable administrator, claiming historical misrepresentation, but faced backlash amid ongoing tensions surrounding the portrayal of historical figures in popular culture.

Published: Mar 10 2025, 11 pmeznews.inSenior Congress leader and former Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel has claimed that the recent Enforcement Directorate (ED) raid on his residence in Bhilai is a manifestation of the BJP's frustration. During the raid, the ED reportedly found Rs 32-33 lakh in cash, which Baghel attributed to his large family and farming activities on 140 acres.

The investigation is part of a broader money laundering probe involving his son, Chaitanya Baghel, who is suspected of receiving proceeds from a liquor scam.

Published: Mar 10 2025, 10 pmeznews.inMaharashtra Minister Nitesh Rane has introduced the Malhar certification initiative for mutton shops, which will be exclusively operated by Hindus. He urged consumers to avoid purchasing mutton from establishments lacking this certification, asserting it would empower Hindu youth financially and ensure the meat is free from adulteration. The Malhar certification parallels the existing halal certification, which adheres to Islamic slaughter methods, while the "jhatka" method involves a single swift cut to the animal's neck. Rane described the launch as a significant advancement for the Hindu community and emphasized the need to support certified shops. This initiative comes amid a broader campaign against halal meat in BJP-ruled states, where right-wing groups have labelled halal practices as "economic jihad" and called for alternatives, including a potential jhatka certification authority. Halal, meaning "permissible" in Arabic, encompasses various products beyond meat, complicating the certification landscape.
