Stadium denied, Congress gets alternative venue for Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’ event in Indore

Stadium denied, Congress gets alternative venue for Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’ event in Indore After being denied permission to use the Indore stadium, the Congress on Friday (September 11, 2026) paid over ₹10 lakh to lease an alternative venue in the city for party leader Rahul Gandhi’s upcoming ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’ programme. Accusing the ruling BJP of deliberately delaying permissions out of panic, Congress leaders confirmed that the party secured a three-day lease of 12,000 sq metres of land in front of the Regional Park from the Indore Development Authority for the student outreach event. An Indore Development Authority (IDA) official said that the land in front of the Regional Park has been temporarily leased to the Congress from September 17 to September 19, and the fee was fixed at ₹10.08 lakh as per the prevailing rates. A letter from the IDA to Indore City Congress Committee President Chintu Chouksey stated that permission to hold the event would be issued after the deposit of the funds, subject to the prescribed conditions. The letter also stated that the organisers would be responsible for ensuring necessary security arrangements at the venue and obtaining no-objection certificates from the relevant departments. Talking to PTI, City Congress Committee President Chouksey said, “We have deposited the agreed amount into the IDA’s bank account.” He alleged that the BJP government was nervous about Gandhi’s upcoming event in Indore, and in this panic, it has been harassing the Congress over the venue. “We initially wanted to hold the event at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on September 12, but after not receiving permission, we had to change the date to September 19. We were made to run around for 10 days for the land located in front of the Regional Park,” Chouksey said. The Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, where the Opposition party initially sought permission…

SC's 13 queries to FSSAI: 'Give details on shape, size, colour of food label'

SC's 13 queries to FSSAI: 'Give details on shape, size, colour of food label' Supreme Court Justice JB Pardiwala questioned why the FSSAI was taking a two-phased approach. NEW DELHI: Supreme Court has directed FSSAI to spell out details of how front-of-pack food warning labels will look, their shape, size, colour, placement on packets and the timeline of implementation, leaving nothing to the discretion of the food regulator.The court also wanted to know how Centre plans to warn children about the dangers of junk food.After FSSAI agreed to implement labelling after being pushed by SC and filed an affidavit, a bench of Justices J B Pardiwala and K Vinod Chandran put 13 questions to the regulator and gave 10 days' time for answers.Though SC acknowledged "significant progress" has been made by FSSAI on this issue of national importance, it said the regulator's affidavit was silent on various issues and several aspects of practical implementation required clarification.The 13 questions are part of the detailed order uploaded by the court on Friday, which also includes its observations from the previous day on why FSSAI proposed a two-phase rollout of the labelling requirements instead of implementing them in one go. 'Red hexagon' to send out warning to customers According to FSSAI’s proposal, during Phase I, a red hexagonal warning would be placed on products high in two or more nutrients of concern, namely added fat, added sugar and salt, based on thresholds in the Dietary Guidelines for Indians, 2024. The warning could carry declarations such as “HIGH FAT”, “HIGH SUGAR”, “HIGH SALT” and “HIGHLY SWEETENED BEVERAGE”. The proposed Phase II would extend the warning to products high in any one of the specified nutrients. The order questions the regulator on what basis it suggested the inclusion of food products high in “two or more” nutrients of…
