Nevada (US): By August two, 14 city and state legislative
bodies in five US Western states would have been opened with ancient Hindu prayers during the current year, thus creating a milestone in American religious history.
Hindu statesman Rajan Zed either has or will be reciting these prayers in California
, Nevada , Alaska , Idaho , and Arizona , and many of these are reportedly the
first Hindu prayers of these legislative bodies since their formation. Zed, who
is president of Universal Society of Hinduism, has delivered prayers from ancient
Sanskrit scriptures at Alaska Senate and Alaska House of Representatives in Juneau
on April nine; Carson City Board of Supervisors (Nevada) on February 18; Sparks
City Council (Nevada) on February eight; and City Councils of Lincoln (April 27),
Yuba City (May four), Bakersfield (May five), Modesto (May 11), Fresno (May 13)-all
in California. Zed will be delivering these prayers in City Councils of Henderson
( Nevada ) on May 18, Boise ( Idaho ) on June eight, Boulder City ( Nevada ) on
June 22, Phoenix ( Arizona ) on July seven, and Visalia ( California ) on August
two.
Sources in the Union Home Ministry on Monday feared that the casualties of the IED blast in
Chhattisgarh's Dantewada is likely to go high as the rescue and relief operations have been
hampered due to bad light. Security forces have launched a major rescue operation. On
Monday evening in one of the worst attack on civilians the Maoists blew up a private bus
killing over 30 people. The bus was on its way from Dantewada to Sukma when the incident
took place near Chingawaram, over nine kilometers from Sukma. The bus-CG17 SS 9295
was carrying 20 special police officers (SPO) and over 30 civilians.The SPOs were
on their way to participate in a special recruitment drive. The latest blast incident
has taken place a day after the Maoists called for a 48 hour shutdown in five
states-Chhattisgarh, Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal and Madhya Pradesh. The sources
said the attack might have been a pre -planned one. Reportedly, the Maoists also
fired on the bus after the blast to ensure that nobody stays alive. |
