Hello Readers and Viewers,
Today
is Wednesday, 22nd January 2025, and here we go with our THE
#DLG+2 DISPATCH / THE DATELINE GUJARAT DISPATCH.
As I scan the online and offline
news platforms in Gujarat, news
of civic body polls rules the headlines and Gujarat has already jumped
into local poll season with Junagadh
Municipal Corporation and 66 municipalities to vote on February 16.
Gujarat Government equally gears for the State budget session from February 19; 27 sittings likely over 26 days, The secretariat of Gujarat Assembly issued a notification in this regard after Governor Acharya Devvrat summoned the Assembly session.
Alongwith Local civic body polls,
Olympic fever is also gripping the state, as state
gears to host 1st Olympic Research Conference, to debate on
economics of hosting Olympics in India, while on the flip side, Gujarat Chief
Minister Bhupendra Patel inaugurates
Oxygen park in Ahmedabad.
Amidst all the juxtaposing
developments from Olympics to Oxygen park, in a shocking incident, deaths due
to asphyxiation are yet reported from the progressive and (already) developed
state of Gujarat, as Two
workers died allegedly of asphyxiation after they were trapped in an
underground sewage pumping station they had entered to clean in Patdi town of
Gujarat's Surendranagar district on Tuesday.

out with remote sensing data and geospatial analyses.
It seems
things are not legally well with the Gujarat Government, Bureaucrats and
journalists in the State, because Gujarat Government has been slammed with two
notices each from Supreme Court and Gujarat High Court, in a provocative song
case, where Gujarat

Minister of the state, has been convicted and sentenced. He is facing nearly a
dozen FIRs, all related to corruption.
While in other developments, Justice

from hearing a plea by journalist Mahesh Langa seeking quashing of an
FIR registered against him for alleged corruption, criminal conspiracy and
theft where he is accused of obtaining "highly confidential government
documents". When the matter was taken up for the hearing, Justice
Bhatt orally said, “Not before me.”
