OPINION | REASONS BEHIND FRENCH UNREST
India TV NewsFrance is facing widespread turmoil for the last three days. IT and Electronics Minister Rajeev Chandrashekhar said, social media companies and internet giants must follow the law of the land in India instead of indulging in non-compliance. He started his career as a footballer, became a national-level player, joined Border Security Force, left and entered journalism, started a daily newspaper, formed his own political party, won an assembly election, then joined the Congress to become a minister, quit Congress in 2017 to join BJP, and has been the first BJP chief minister of Manipur since then. On the dais sat former CM Vasundhara Raje, state BJP chief C P Joshi, BJP leader of opposition Rajendra Rathore, Union Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, MP Diya Kumari and former state party chief Satish Punia. Though factionalism in Rajasthan BJP has been absent after Modi's visit, and Vasundhara Raje has again become active, several state leaders like Satish Punia, C P Joshi, Gajendra Singh Shekhawat and Rajendra Rathore are reportedly working against Vasundhara.
