Mamata's offer to cook food for PM Modi stirs controversy
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's offer to «cook food» for Prime Minister Narendra Modi elicited mixed responses from different political parties, with the BJP suspecting a politicized agenda and the CPI(M) suggesting a potential «understanding» between the TMC and the BJP. Taking a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his recent allegation that RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav last month had fish during a period when some Hindus abstain from having non-vegetarian food, Banerjee on Monday said she was ready to «cook something for him (Modi)» if he wanted though she was not sure whether he would eat what she cooked. Banerjee, at an election rally here, had made the remarks while taking a dig at the BJP for allegedly interfering with the food habits of the people and had said she would be happy to cook food for Modi but is not sure «whether the PM will be ready to savour my cooked meal.» «I have been cooking since my childhood days. People have praised my cooking. But will Modiji accept my food? Will he trust me? I will cook whatever he loves,» she had said.

AAP admits assault on Swati Maliwal by Delhi CM's PA: Who is former video editor Bibhav Kumar, known as Kejriwal's Man Friday
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has acknowledged the reported assault on its Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's personal assistant Bibhav Kumar. The party stated that Delhi CM has taken cognizance of the incident, ensuring appropriate action will follow. The incident, which occurred at Arvind Kejriwal's residence, saw two complaints filed with the Delhi Police concerning an alleged assault on AAP MP Swati Maliwal. The accused, Bibhav Kumar, reportedly obstructed Maliwal from meeting Kejriwal, particularly during the chief minister’s engagement in the excise police case. Maliwal visited the Civil Lines Police Station but refrained from filing a formal complaint. Who is Bibhav Kumar, known as «Kejriwal’s Man Friday»? Bibhav Kumar, a former video journalist, has been associated with AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal since the early 2000s. He initially worked as a video editor for a magazine associated with India Against Corruption, which later transformed into AAP. Over the years, Kumar has become an integral part of Kejriwal's inner circle, assisting him with daily tasks and serving as a trusted aide.
