People Hinted At Elevation As Veep If...: Meghalaya Governor

"There are many in the BJP worth raiding," Satya Pal Malik said.(File)

Jaipur:

Meghalaya Governor Satya Pal Malik on Saturday claimed that people had indicated that he would be made vice president if he stopped speaking against the centre.

"I already had indications that you will be made (vice president) if you don't speak, but I don't do this, I speak what I feel," he said when asked about the elevation of Jagdeep Dhankhar, whom he described as a "deserving".

He also praised Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for taking out the "Bharat Jodo Yatra". Rahul Gandhi is working for his party and it is good, Malik said.

When asked about what message the yatra has given, Satya Pal Malik said, "I do not know this. It is for the people to tell but I feel he is doing the right work." On the Enforcement Directorate's raids on the leaders of opposition parties, Satya Pal Malik said raids on BJP leaders should also be conducted.

"There are many in the BJP worth raiding," he commented.

When asked about his reaction on changing the name of Rajpath in the national capital, he said it was not needed. He said Rajpath was a good name while the name "Kartayva Path" sounds like a mantra.

Satya Pal Malik said he will continue to raise his voice in the interest of farmers, who will soon launch an agitation for their demands because in the present circumstances the demand for the Minimum Support Price (MSP) does not seem to be getting fulfilled.

Questioning the growth of industrialist Gautam Adani, he said his wealth steadily increased in a short time while that of farmers is going down.

Barcelona Coach Xavi Banned For Two Games For Red Card In Season Opener

File image of Xavi Hernandez © AFP Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez will serve a two-match suspension after being sent off in his team's La Liga season opener against Getafe, it was announced Wednesday. Xavi was punished for his touchline behaviour during Sunday's 0-0 draw at Getafe, in which Barcelona winger Raphinha also received a red card in the first half for elbowing an opponent. Former Barcelona midfielder Xavi was dismissed with 20 minutes to play after leaving his technical area to remonstrate with the fourth official over a refereeing decision. Referee Cesar Soto Grado said in his report that he had already warned Xavi, who was critical of the officiating in his post-match press conference. Xavi and Raphinha will both miss Sunday's game against Cadiz and the trip to Villarreal on August 27.
