Hyderabad: Tensions within actor Mohan Babu’s family flared up again on Saturday night, after Manchu Manoj alleged sabotage by his elder brother and actor, Manchu Vishnu. In a statement, Manchu Manoj, who has been at odds with his father claimed there was a deliberate attempt to compromise his family’s safety. He alleged that on Saturday, while he was away on a shoot and his wife attended their son’s school event, his brother Vishnu Manchu along with three associates – Raj Konduru, Kiran, Vijay Reddy, and a group of bouncers – entered his house under the pretext of delivering a birthday cake for their mother. “What followed was an act of calculated sabotage. They tampered with the main generators in my home, pouring diesel mixed with sugar; a deliberate act designed to cause catastrophic failure. Late in the night, the generators malfunctioned leading to dangerous electrical fluctuations. The entire household was at risk, including my elderly mother, my nine-month-old daughter, my uncle, and my aunt,” Manchu Manoj claimed. “As Vishnu and his team left the premises, they further escalated the situation by forcibly removing the last loyal staff member from my house, leaving my family vulnerable and helpless. They also threatened my coach warning that they would harm his family if he intervened or reported the incident,” Manchu Manoj alleged. He appealed to the authorities to take swift action and hold those responsible accountable. “My only request is for the safety of my family and justice for the deliberate harm caused to us. I trust the law will prevail, and justice will be served,” his statement read.Known for her powerful performances in dramatic roles, Fu Jing's decision to take on a comedy film is a bold move that has generated a lot of excitement among her fans and the film industry.

Chief minister Yogi Adityanath will launch the World Bank-funded Uttar Pradesh Agriculture Growth and Rural Incomes Ecosystem Strengthening (UPAGRISE) project here on December 28. The project aims at transforming agriculture in the backward districts of Purvanchal and Bundelkhand. The move comes after the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IRBD), the lending arm of the World Bank, recently sanctioned the loan of ₹ 2800 crore for the project. The remaining nearly 30% of the funds, around ₹ 1200 crore, will be spent by the state government. The U.P. Cabinet has already given its nod for the ambitious scheme. “After the World Bank’s approval of the loan, chief minister Yogi Adityanath has given his consent to launch the UPAGRISE in the presence of the International Bank officials here on December 28, marking the beginning of a crucial project,” a senior agriculture department official said. According to the officials, the World Bank sanctioned the loan at its board of directors’ meeting earlier this month. The bank communicated the decision through a letter (HT has copy of the letter) to UP chief secretary Manoj Kumar Singh and the Central government on December 13. “I am pleased to inform that Board of Executive Directors of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development approved on December 12, 2024 a loan in the amount of US$325 million for the above-mentioned project (UPAGRISE),” IBRD country director, India, Auguste Tano Kouame wrote in the letter. The $500 million project to be in place for six years (2024-25 to 2029-30) aims to transform agriculture in 21 backward districts in eastern UP and all seven districts of Bundelkhand. The initiative seeks to boost crop productivity, enhance incomes for small and marginal farmers, and address low agricultural output, limited value addition, and poor export performance. The project focuses on climate-resilient farming, high-value crop clusters, and local agribusiness promotion. Key measures include forming 30,750 Farmer Producer Groups, adopting advanced technologies and creating a digital agribusiness network for better stakeholder communication. “Other initiatives include improving post-harvest management, enhancing fish production, and ensuring environmental and social safeguards. Efforts will be directed at reducing costs, increasing productivity, and ensuring food security for the state’s 240 million residents,” the official said.

WASHINGTON (AP) — After several weeks working mostly behind closed doors, Vice President-elect JD Vance returned to Capitol Hill this week in a new, more visible role: Helping Donald Trump try to get his most contentious Cabinet picks to confirmation in the Senate, where Vance has served for the last two years. Vance arrived at the Capitol on Wednesday with former Rep. Matt Gaetz and spent the morning sitting in on meetings between Trump’s choice for attorney general and key Republicans, including members of the Senate Judiciary Committee. The effort was for naught: Gaetz announced a day later that he was withdrawing his name amid scrutiny over sex trafficking allegations and the reality that he was unlikely to be confirmed. Thursday morning Vance was back, this time accompanying Pete Hegseth, the “Fox & Friends Weekend” host whom Trump has tapped to be the next secretary of defense. Hegseth also has faced allegations of sexual assault that he denies. Vance is expected to accompany other nominees for meetings in coming weeks as he tries to leverage the two years he has spent in the Senate to help push through Trump's picks. The role of introducing nominees around Capitol Hill is an unusual one for a vice president-elect. Usually the job goes to a former senator who has close relationships on the Hill, or a more junior aide. But this time the role fits Vance, said Marc Short, who served as Trump’s first director of legislative affairs as well as chief of staff to Trump’s first vice president, Mike Pence, who spent more than a decade in Congress and led the former president’s transition ahead of his first term. ”JD probably has a lot of current allies in the Senate and so it makes sense to have him utilized in that capacity,” Short said. Unlike the first Trump transition, which played out before cameras at Trump Tower in New York and at the president-elect's golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, this one has largely happened behind closed doors in Palm Beach, Florida. There, a small group of officials and aides meet daily at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort to run through possible contenders and interview job candidates. The group includes Elon Musk, the billionaire who has spent so much time at the club that Trump has joked he can’t get rid of him. Vance has been a constant presence, even as he’s kept a lower profile. The Ohio senator has spent much of the last two weeks in Palm Beach, according to people familiar with his plans, playing an active role in the transition, on which he serves as honorary chair. Vance has been staying at a cottage on the property of the gilded club, where rooms are adorned with cherubs, oriental rugs and intricate golden inlays. It's a world away from the famously hardscrabble upbringing that Vance documented in the memoir that made him famous, “Hillbilly Elegy.” His young children have also joined him at Mar-a-Lago, at times. Vance was photographed in shorts and a polo shirt playing with his kids on the seawall of the property with a large palm frond, a U.S. Secret Service robotic security dog in the distance. On the rare days when he is not in Palm Beach, Vance has been joining the sessions remotely via Zoom. Though he has taken a break from TV interviews after months of constant appearances, Vance has been active in the meetings, which began immediately after the election and include interviews and as well as presentations on candidates’ pluses and minuses. Among those interviewed: Contenders to replace FBI Director Christopher Wray , as Vance wrote in a since-deleted social media post. Defending himself from criticism that he’d missed a Senate vote in which one of President Joe Biden’s judicial nominees was confirmed, Vance wrote that he was meeting at the time "with President Trump to interview multiple positions for our government, including for FBI Director.” “I tend to think it’s more important to get an FBI director who will dismantle the deep state than it is for Republicans to lose a vote 49-46 rather than 49-45,” Vance added on X. “But that’s just me.” While Vance did not come in to the transition with a list of people he wanted to see in specific roles, he and his friend, Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., who is also a member of the transition team, were eager to see former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. find roles in the administration. Trump ended up selecting Gabbard as the next director of national intelligence , a powerful position that sits atop the nation’s spy agencies and acts as the president’s top intelligence adviser. And he chose Kennedy to lead the Department of Health and Human Services , a massive agency that oversees everything from drug and food safety to Medicare and Medicaid. Vance was also a big booster of Tom Homan, the former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, who will serve as Trump's “border czar.” In another sign of Vance's influence, James Braid, a top aide to the senator, is expected to serve as Trump’s legislative affairs director. Allies say it’s too early to discuss what portfolio Vance might take on in the White House. While he gravitates to issues like trade, immigration and tech policy, Vance sees his role as doing whatever Trump needs. Vance was spotted days after the election giving his son’s Boy Scout troop a tour of the Capitol and was there the day of leadership elections. He returned in earnest this week, first with Gaetz — arguably Trump’s most divisive pick — and then Hegseth, who has was been accused of sexually assaulting a woman in 2017, according to an investigative report made public this week. Hegseth told police at the time that the encounter had been consensual and denied any wrongdoing. Vance hosted Hegseth in his Senate office as GOP senators, including those who sit on the Senate Armed Services Committee, filtered in to meet with the nominee for defense secretary. While a president’s nominees usually visit individual senators’ offices, meeting them on their own turf, the freshman senator — who is accompanied everywhere by a large Secret Service detail that makes moving around more unwieldy — instead brought Gaetz to a room in the Capitol on Wednesday and Hegseth to his office on Thursday. Senators came to them. Vance made it to votes Wednesday and Thursday, but missed others on Thursday afternoon. Vance is expected to continue to leverage his relationships in the Senate after Trump takes office. But many Republicans there have longer relationships with Trump himself. Sen. Kevin Cramer, a North Dakota Republican, said that Trump was often the first person to call him back when he was trying to reach high-level White House officials during Trump's first term. “He has the most active Rolodex of just about anybody I’ve ever known,” Cramer said, adding that Vance would make a good addition. “They’ll divide names up by who has the most persuasion here,” Cramer said, but added, “Whoever his liaison is will not work as hard at it as he will.” Cramer was complimentary of the Ohio senator, saying he was “pleasant” and ” interesting” to be around. ′′He doesn’t have the long relationships," he said. "But we all like people that have done what we’ve done. I mean, that’s sort of a natural kinship, just probably not as personally tied.” Under the Constitution, Vance will also have a role presiding over the Senate and breaking tie votes. But he's not likely to be needed for that as often as was Kamala Harris, who broke a record number of ties for Democrats as vice president, since Republicans will have a bigger cushion in the chamber next year.
