About "Varun Gandhi"
Varun Gandhi is th young and firebrand leader of BJP- recently embroiled in a hate- speech controversy in his Pilibhit constituency in Uttar Pradesh. Varun Gandhi was born to Sanjay Gandhi and Maneka Gandhi on March 13, 1980 in New Delhi.Sanjay Gandhi was considered to be Prime Minister of India Indira Gandhi's political heir. Varun Gandhi was about 3 months old when Sanjay Gandhi died in a plane crash.
Tragedy struck once again when Varun Gandhi’s grandmother and Prime Minster at that time, Indira Gandhi was shot dead by her bodyguards on October 31, 1984. Varun's mother Maneka Gandhi, apart from being a staunch opponent of the Congress, soon became known for her work against cruelty to animals.
Varun’s great-grandfather, Jawaharlal Nehru, was the first Prime Minister of India, and his great-great-grandfather Motilal Nehru played an important role during Indian struggle for independence.
Varun Gandhi studied at the Rishi Valley School in Andhra Pradesh, India and later on joined University of London's London School of Economics for a correspondence course..Varund enrolled himself in School of Oriental and African Studies in London for his Masters which he did not finish.
On 22 March 2009, the Election Commission found Varun Gandhi guilty and has condemned him in the case related to his 'hate speech' during an election rally in Pilibhit, Uttar Pradesh. The Election Commission asked the BJP not to nominate him as a candidate for the 2009 General Elections. The Election Commission informed the BJP, since the party disowned the comments made, if party nominated him as a candidate then whatever he mentioned in the 'Hate Speech' would be treated as the party's policies.
On 29 March, Varun Gandhi surrendered before the local court in Pilibhit, after his anticipatory bail expired in the presence of a large number of supporters. He was arrested and jailed by UP police.
Advani Said
BJP Unveils Infrastructure Vision "I believe our country deserves infrastructure, both physical and social, that is second to none in the world and commensurate in quality and quantity with our goal of making the 21st century India's century," said BJP's prime ministerial candidate L.K. Advani, releasing the document here.
Making a solemn commitment to expand and modernize the country's infrastructure on a war footing, the party flags the success of two dream projects that were initiated during the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government under Atal Bihari Vajpayee, during 1998-2004.
"That we can think big and also implement big was demonstrated with the National Highways Development Project (NHDP) and the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (Prime Minister's Rural Road Programme). If elected, we will be more ambitious and result-oriented than any previous government in New Delhi," Advani asserted.
Lashing out at the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government for the tardy progress in infrastructure development, the document said less than 5 km of highway was built per day in the last five years as against 11 km per day during the NDA rule.
Reiterating that rapid infrastructure development was critical for accelerated economic growth, removal of unemployment and bridging the rural-urban divide, Advani said if elected, the BJP-led NDA government would speed up the implementation of NHDP by building 20 km of highways per day.
The document identifies that the main constraint in infrastructure development is not as much the availability of finance as poor governance.
Faulty policy and legal framework, corruption, red tape, political interference, lack of intra-governmental coordination, judicial delays and lack of autonomy and accountability at the execution level have paralysed project delivery.
"We recognize that 80 percent of infrastructure development still requires public investment. This underscores the role of government in planning, financing and time-bound execution of projects, including those under the public-private partnership (PPP) framework."
"The estimated investment needed to implement the infrastructure development projects is Rs.25 trillion ($500 billion) over the next five years. We will set up a national infrastructure facilitation and monitoring agency (NIFMA) to accelerate the implementation," the party said.
The document also mentions recasting the Jawaharlal Nehru Urban Renewal Mission (JNURM) under the National Integrated Urban Renewal Mission (NIURM) into Jawaharlal Nehru Metro Renewal Mission, Sardar Vallabhai Patel District Centre Renewal Mission, Netaji Bose Tehsil Town Renewal Mission and Pavitra Bharat Teerthasthan Renewal Mission.
Bangalore, April 21. On the eve of the second phase of the Lok Sabha polls, the BJP Tuesday unveiled its vision document on infrastructure development as part of its manifesto for the general elections.

The BJP’s firebrand neta and a veteran, the Iron Man has all the ingredients to challenge any PM-in-waiting. He took the baton from Atal Bihari Vajpayee and has begun campaigning in his very own style. Will he bring the BJP back in power?
Political career:
The political career of LK Advani has gone through a phase of massive development. After serving the RSS, he was assigned the position of secretary of the organization's Karachi branch. After this, he visited Rajasthan's Mewat place, which had faced communal violence due to partition.
In 1951, Advani was made to enter the Jana Sangh, a nationalist party sharing same ideology with RSS. This party was headed by Shyama Prasad Mukherjee. It was in 1970 that he was elected to the Parliament and became the party's president in 1973.
He also played the role of the minister for Information and Broadcasting during the regime of the Janata government. After the government's break down, he came to be identified as an important leader of the freshly established party, BJP. The party was represented by him in the Rajya Sabha.
Advani became the president of BJP in 1986. He started preaching Hindutva among the party members. Following this policy, he undertook many huge tasks which initially included the issue of Ramjanmabhoomi.
His aim was to reconstruct the Ram Temple in. In this regard, a mass movement (rath yatra) was organised which gained strength. However, Advani was charged with giving instigative speeches. After this whole event, BJP gained popularity.
Until the failure of BJP in 2004 elections, Advani served as deputy prime minister in the government of Shree Atal Bihari Vajpayee. He shares a great chemistry with Vajpayee. All minor to major decisions of the party are taken according to their consent. Like any other famous personality, Advani has also faced controversies and gone through various ups and downs. He also faced disputes related to the recolonization of Jinnah as secular. In this respect, he gave his resignation which was taken back on the insistence of party members.
In March 2008, his book called My Country My Life was launched by the former Indian president APJ Abdul Kalam. This book mentions different achievements of Advani at different time periods. In fact, it tells the story of his journey or experience as a politician till date.
Early Life:
Advani was born to Kishinchand and Gyanidevi on November 8, 1927 in Karachi, Pakistan. He has a younger sister Sheela. Advani completed his primary education from St. Patrick's High School. For further education, he joined the D.G. National College in Hyderabad, Sindh. Subsequently, he got a graduation degree in law from the Government Law College, Bombay University.
Advani is regarded as Iron Man by his supporters. His persona is characterized by prudence as well as sophistication. During partition, he was one of those millions who had to migrate from Pakistan to India. As a swayamsewak, he joined the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) at the age of 14. Meanwhile, he also came in contact with the philosophies of Swami Vivekanand.
On 25 February 1965, Advani got married to Smt. Kamla. His two children, Pratibha and Jayant are doing great in their own fields. Pratibha is a prominent name among the masses. She is a television personality who produces and anchors various shows. On the other hand, Jayant Advani is a businessman. Lal Krishna Advani always maintained a balance between his personal and professional life. He never compromised on any of them at the cost of other. This is perhaps the major reason behind his image of a complete family man as well as a true politician.

Electoral System of India
The Electronic Voting Machine – An Electronic Marvel.
Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) retains all the characteristics of voting by ballot papers, while making polling a lot more expedient. Being fast and absolutely reliable, the EVM saves considerable time, money and manpower. And, of course, helps maintain total voting secrecy without the use of ballot papers. The EVM is 100 per cent tamper proof. And, at the end of the polling, just press a button and there you have the results.
What does an EVM unit comprise of ?
The EVM consists of two units that can be inter-linked. One, a ballot unit which a voter uses to exercise his vote. And the other, a control unit – used by the polling officials.
The Ballot Unit : An electronic ballot box.
A simple voting device, it displays the list of candidates. A facility to incorporate party names and symbols is in-built. All the voter has to do is press the desired switch located next to the name of each candidate. The main advantage is the speed, apart from the simplicity of operation, which requires no training at all. A single ballot unit takes in the names of 16 candidates. And thus, by connecting four ballot units the EVM can accommodate a total of 64 candidates in a single election.
The control Unit : In Total control of the polling
Conduction of polling, display of total votes polled, sealing at the end of the poll, and finally, declaration of results – these are the various accomplishments of just one gadget : the control unit. In total control of the polling, this electronic unit gives you all necessary information at a press of a few buttons. For instance, if you need to know the total number of votes, you just have to press the Total switch. Candidates-wise results can be had only at the end of polling.
Independent & Reliable
The EVM is compact and comes in its reusable carry pack. Further, the EVM works/operates on a battery power source. Making it independent and totally reliable.
Hi-tech Simplicity
To commence polling, the polling officer activates the "Ballot" switch on the control unit. The voter then has to press the button of his choice on the ballot unit. This is followed by a short beep sound, indicating that the vote has been cast. Once again, the polling officer has to press the "Ballot" switch to clear the machine for the next voter to cast his vote.
Super-sensitive circuitry : No invalid votes
Inside the control unit, hidden from you, is an extremely sensitive circuitry that takes care of common election errors or malpractices like vote duplication. For instance, if one were to press two or more buttons simultaneously, then no vote would be cast. Even if there was a micro-second difference in the pressing of the switches, the EVM is sensitive enough to trace and identify the twitch that was press first.
Instant results
Once polling is completed, the election results can be known instantly at the counting station by pressing the '‘Result'’switch. This switch is located in a sealed compartment of the control unit.
Tamper proof design
The EVM is designed to be totally tamper proof. Each EVM comes with a sophisticated programme in assembly language : a software fully seated against outside influence. And the programme is itself fused on to a customised micro processor chip at the manufacturer’s end. This ensures that the program is rendered tamper proof and inaccessible.
Result Printout
Normally, an EVM displays results on the display panel of the control unit. But a printout option is available with the use of a Download Adaptor Unit (DAU). The DAU has to be connected to the control unit and any standard printer. Further, with the help of a modem, the DAU can also enable transmission of voting information to a distant centralised computer.
