BJP is funded by beef companies!

December 15, 2015

If you think that beef fetches only votes for Bharatiya Janata Party you are wrong. It also fetches huge money for the saffron party which often creates hysteria over the dietary habits of people.

The election commission documents reveal that the BJP has been more than eager to accept crores of rupees as donation from the beef exporting companies of India.

A BBC report quoting election commission data said that the BJP had accepted Rs 50 lakh from a Maharashtra-based beef exporting company in 2014-15.

Frigorifico Allana Limited donated this money through Vijaya Bank cheque- number 846317. Registered in 1986, this company has four directors, Siraj Mahmood, Rafiq Razzaq Patel, Ismail Ghani Mohammad, and Moiz Mansoor.

In 2013-14, the year of Lok Sabha elections when the BJP secured an overwhelming mandate at the Centre, the same company had donated the BJP Rs 75 lakh.

Another company, Indagro Food Limited, registered at the same address, too had donate the party Rs 75 lakh to the BJP. A third company, Frigerio Converva Allana Limited too had made donation of Rs 50 lakh to the party.

Interestingly, Frigerio Converva is not a company registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.

BJP, in 2014-15 had collected Rs 437.35 crore- highest by any national political party- as donations. This also marked a whopping 156% increase compared to the year gone by.

BJP was also in controversy after it emerged that the party had accepted donations from Dow Chemicals, current owner of Union Carbide, which was responsible for Bhopal Tragedy.

In October this year, media reports have revealed that BJP leader Sangeet Singh Som, who is at the forefront of the frenzied anti-beef protests, was in fact a co-founder of one of India’s halal meat export companies, which exports beef along with other meat.

Screen silence: Karnataka’s bold ‘switch-off’ strategy to boost SSLC scores

News Network

February 5,2026

In an era where digital distractions are the primary rival to academic excellence, the Karnataka Education Department is taking the fight directly to the living room. As the SSLC (Class 10) annual examinations loom, officials have launched a localized "digital strike" to ensure students aren't losing their competitive edge to scrolling or soap operas.

The 7-to-9 Lockdown

The department has issued a formal directive urging—and in some cases, enforcing via home visits—a total blackout of mobile phones and television sets between 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM. This two-hour window is being designated as "sacred study time" across the state until the examinations conclude on April 2.

Key Pillars of the Initiative:

• Doorstep Advocacy: Teachers are transitioning from classrooms to living rooms, meeting parents to explain the psychological benefits of a distraction-free environment.

• Parental Accountability: The campaign shifts the burden of discipline from the student to the household, asking parents to lead by example and switch off their own devices.

• The Timeline: The focus remains sharp on the upcoming exam block, scheduled from March 18 to April 2.

"The objective is simple: uninterrupted focus. We are reclaiming the evening hours for the students, ensuring their environment is as prepared as their minds," stated a senior department official.

Student vs. Reality

While the student community has largely welcomed the "forced focus"—with many admitting they lack the willpower to ignore notifications—the move has sparked a debate on enforceability. Without a "TV Police," the success of this initiative rests entirely on the shoulders of parents and the persuasive power of visiting educators.
