<p><strong>Amit Shah Jaipur Visit:</strong> Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah arrived in Jaipur on Thursday. After landing at Jaipur airport around 12:15 pm, he was scheduled to depart for the venue in Dadiya. Due to inclement weather, making helicopter travel impossible, Shah travelled to Dadiya by road. During this visit, he launched several schemes related to cooperation and youth empowerment.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Flags off Police Vehicles</h2>



<p>At the event in Dadiya, Amit Shah flagged off 100 new vehicles for the Rajasthan Police. Following this, he observed an exhibition of cooperative products. Shah distributed appointment letters to 8,000 young people who secured government jobs. The Department of Administrative Reforms had set up two stalls at the venue for this purpose.</p>



<p>On this occasion, he also virtually inaugurated 24 grain warehouses with a capacity of 500 metric tonnes each and 64 millet centres. Simultaneously, loans amounting to ₹12 crore were distributed to 1,400 cattle herders under the Gopal Credit Card scheme.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Rajasthan&#8217;s Achievements in the Cooperative Sector</h2>



<p>Shah began his address with a resounding “Bharat Mata Ki Jai” and paid homage to the land of Rajasthan. Shah stated that cooperatives have significantly contributed to the nation&#8217;s development over the past 100 years, and the next 100 years will be dedicated to their growth. During this time, Shah mentioned that efforts are underway to strengthen the rural economy and empower farmers through cooperatives.</p>



<p>Amit Shah commended Rajasthan&#8217;s agricultural achievements, highlighting the state&#8217;s leading role in the production of groundnuts, sorghum, chickpeas, and oilseeds. He also praised the research initiated on camel milk, aimed at ensuring the conservation of camels. Shah stated that this step will guarantee the survival of camels in the future.</p>



<p>The Union Minister mentioned that Prime Minister Narendra Modi created a separate ministry to promote cooperatives, under which numerous initiatives are underway. Cooperative institutions contribute 20 percent to the procurement of rice and wheat in the country. Shah revealed that the goal is to establish two lakh new Primary Agricultural Cooperative Societies (PACS) nationwide, of which 40,000 have already been created. The computerisation of all PACS is complete.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Praises CM Bhajanlal</h2>



<p>He stated that new committees have been formed for seed development and other tasks. Shah lauded Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma for the work done in the cooperative sector in Rajasthan. He mentioned initiatives like the ‘Rising Rajasthan’ initiative, the reduction in VAT on petrol and diesel, and the decrease in the prices of cooking gas cylinders. Shah specifically highlighted Rajasthan&#8217;s contribution to the cooperative sector and stated that the CM has done commendable work in strengthening cooperatives in a short time.</p>



<p>Shah expressed confidence that the central and Rajasthan governments will jointly empower the state&#8217;s cooperative movement further. He said that their goal is for Rajasthan to become number one in the country in the cooperative sector by 2047. The Indian government and the Rajasthan government will work together to achieve this.</p>



<p>He stated that the Bhajan Lal government had performed a significant service by forming an SIT on paper leaks. He said that the formation of the SIT sent a strong message to the paper leak mafia. This will greatly benefit the youth.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Mentions Operation Sindoor</h2>



<p>Amit Shah, targeting the Congress regime, said that during that time, the country struggled with terrorist attacks. In contrast, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has not only strengthened its security but has also realised the dream of a prosperous and developed nation. Citing the recent Operation Sindoor as an example, he said that PM Modi has repeatedly given a strong response to Pakistan and conveyed India&#8217;s strength to the world.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">CM Highlights Benefits of Double Engine Government</h2>



<p>Meanwhile, Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma, in his address, stated that his government, as a double-engine government, is working for the poor and the youth. He explained that interest-free loans of up to ₹1 lakh are being provided under the Gopalak Yojana, and more than ₹300 crore in interest-free loans have been distributed so far.</p>



<p>The Chief Minister said that an SIT has been formed to take strict action on paper leak cases. Also, more than 5,000 young people have been given government jobs in the recent past, and advertisements are being issued for recruitment to 28,000 positions. The target is to provide government jobs to four lakh young people in the next five years.</p>



<p>It is worth mentioning that the United Nations General Assembly has declared 2025 as the International Year of Cooperatives. Under this, the central government has assigned 54 tasks to the states in the field of cooperation. The cooperative conference in Rajasthan is a significant step in this direction.</p>

<p>The atmosphere in Rajasthan&#8217;s colleges and universities is heating up with admissions and student union elections. Uncertainty remains about whether elections will be held this time. However, colleges and universities are collecting student union election fees during admissions. Students in Rajasthan&#8217;s 665 government colleges and 13 state universities are being charged student union election fees again this year. If the government doesn&#8217;t make a decision regarding the elections, then, like the previous two sessions, the election fee will be collected but will not be refunded.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Collection of ₹50 to ₹100</h2>



<p>In Rajasthan University and other state universities and colleges, students are charged ₹50 to ₹100 during admission. Based on this, crores of rupees are being collected across Rajasthan in the name of student union elections. This fee is for one session. Similar collections were made in the previous two sessions, but the fee was not returned even though the elections did not take place.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1200" height="800" src="https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Copy-of-Logo-Banner-2025-07-17T081110.294.jpg?w=640" alt="Rajasthan University में छात्रसंघ चुनाव पर संशय, पत्रिका फोटो" class="wp-image-19783102" srcset="https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Copy-of-Logo-Banner-2025-07-17T081110.294.jpg 1200w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Copy-of-Logo-Banner-2025-07-17T081110.294.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Copy-of-Logo-Banner-2025-07-17T081110.294.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Copy-of-Logo-Banner-2025-07-17T081110.294.jpg?resize=1024,683 1024w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Copy-of-Logo-Banner-2025-07-17T081110.294.jpg?resize=135,90 135w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Copy-of-Logo-Banner-2025-07-17T081110.294.jpg?resize=90,60 90w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" /></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Development Committee Makes Decisions</h2>



<p>In colleges and universities, the Development Committee determines all types of institutional fees. This includes student union elections, parking, library, and other fees. The committee meeting is held in advance, and decisions are made.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Budget Used for Election Expenses and Other Items</h2>



<p>Student leader Shubham Rewar says that the university uses this fee to cover expenses incurred in student union elections. However, if elections do not take place, it is used for other purposes. In Rajasthan University, more than 25,000 students are studying, and a fee of ₹100 was collected from them.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-large"></figure>
</div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">They Say…</h2>



<p>The government should conduct student union elections. If student union elections are not being held, then universities and colleges should stop collecting fees in the name of elections, and if they have already collected it, the institutions should return it if the elections do not take place.<br>Dr. Banay Singh, General Secretary, RUCTA</p>



<p>Student union elections are very important for student representation in the university. Since the fee for conducting student union elections is being collected from students at the time of admission, student union elections should be held.</p>
