Minister’s Hindi mania
Union Minister of state for Home, Haribhai Parthibhai Chaudhary  on Saturday spoke in pure Hindi at the passing out parade at  NEPA on Saturday.
The minister in his speech used very tough hindi words which were difficult for many to understand.
Even during media briefing, he was asked if he can speak in English, but the minister insisted that he would speak only in Hindi.
The Minister is a Graduate (B.Com) from Gujarat University, and completed post graduation (M.Com) from Mumbai University
Disregard to Natl anthem?
A section of the crowd consisting relatives and friends of the selected trainees who came to witness the passing out parade of the 41st basic course at NEPA did not stand up while the national anthem was being sung.
While there were many who stood up while the national anthem was sung,  a section of the crowd continued to sit which was noticeable .
Few days ago, a family in  Mumbai  was asked to leave a cinema hall after some moviegoers took exception to them for purportedly not standing up for the national anthem.
