Sagar Watch News

Sagar Watch News/ Youth Congress workers staged a strong protest near the Malthone bus stand in Sagar against the BJP government, condemning the tragic incident in Indore’s Bhagirathpura, where several people reportedly died, and many fell ill after consuming contaminated water. 

The protest was led by Sagar District Youth Congress President Sandeep Chaudhary and Khurai Assembly Youth Congress President Aman Lodhi.

Raising slogans and ringing bells as a mark of protest, the Youth Congress demanded the immediate dismissal of Urban Administration Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya, the Indore Mayor, and concerned councillors. 

The protest was also directed against the minister’s alleged insensitive, indecent, and inappropriate language used while responding to public-interest questions raised by a journalist on the issue.

Addressing the gathering, Sandeep Chaudhary said that the deaths caused by contaminated water in Indore were not an accident but a result of gross negligence by the BJP government. 

He alleged that residents were being forced to drink polluted water and asserted that the Youth Congress would not tolerate insensitive and irresponsible statements by senior ministers.

Aman Lodhi strongly condemned Minister Vijayvargiya’s remarks and demanded that accountability be fixed. He called for the immediate removal of the minister, the Indore Mayor, and councillors from their posts, holding them responsible for the incident and its consequences.

Sagar Watch news

Sagar Watch News, January 2, 2026/ As the New Year begins on Earth, a rare and interesting celestial coincidence is unfolding in space. Both the Moon and the Sun are unusually close to Earth, making this weekend special for sky watchers and science enthusiasts alike.

Sharing this information, National Award–winning science communicator Sarika Gharu explained that celestial bodies like the Earth and the Moon move around in elliptical (oval-shaped) orbits. 

Because of this, they come closest to each other at one point in the year and move farthest away at another. The start of the New Year marks the time when these bodies are near their closest positions.

Sarika said that on Saturday night at 10:45 pm, the Earth will reach its closest point to the Sun, a position known as perihelion. At this moment, the distance between the Earth and the Sun will be reduced to 147,099,894 kilometers. In contrast, in July, this distance increases to about 152,087,774 kilometers, when Earth is farthest from the Sun.

Meanwhile, several social media posts are describing Saturday’s Moon as a “Wolf Supermoon.” Clarifying this, Sarika said that from an astronomical point of view, the Moon reached its closest point to Earth on January 1 and has now started moving away. Therefore, it appears supermoon-like, but is not a true supermoon.

She added that on reaching the full moon stage, the Moon will be positioned in the Gemini constellation at a distance of about 362,000 kilometers from Earth. The Moon will rise in the evening and remain visible throughout the night. Those eager to witness the largest and brightest true supermoon will have to wait until December 24.

Sarika further noted that during the first week of the New Year, both the Moon and the Earth come close to the Earth and the Sun, respectively. She invited people to celebrate the arrival of 2026 by enjoying this special weekend, marked by the presence of the Sun and Moon close to Earth.

Special Highlights

  • Earth reaches perihelion (closest to the Sun) on January 2 at 10:45 pm

  • Distance from the Sun reduces to 147.09 million km

  • Moon appears supermoon-like, but is not a true supermoon

  • Full Moon is visible all night, located in the Gemini constellation

  • The brightest supermoon is expected on December 24

  • A rare New Year weekend with both Sun and Moon near Earth

Sagar Watch News

Sagar Watch News | Madhya Pradesh Labour Department has introduced a significant amendment to the Madhya Pradesh Shops and Establishments Act, 1958, aimed at promoting ease of doing business and reducing unnecessary compliance burdens on traders and business owners.

Under the amendment, shops and establishments employing fewer than 20 workers will now be inspected by labour inspectors only with prior permission from the state government. This provision is expected to put an end to routine and unwarranted inspections, which often disrupt day-to-day business activities.

Additional Secretary of the Labour Department, Shri Basant Kurre, said the decision would provide major relief to small shopkeepers and entrepreneurs by protecting them from avoidable harassment. 

He added that the reform would also encourage a culture of self-compliance among traders, while creating a more business-friendly environment conducive to trade growth and employment generation. The move will help save time, resources and operational costs for small establishments.

Sagar Watch Review

The Chief Minister’s instructions are expected to directly benefit small traders and businessmen in several ways. By limiting inspections, shopkeepers can focus more on running their businesses rather than dealing with frequent regulatory checks. 

Reduced interference will lower compliance-related stress and financial costs, especially for small establishments with limited staff and resources. The amendment also builds confidence among traders, encouraging them to expand operations and generate employment without fear of unnecessary inspections.

The state government, under the leadership of Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav, has reiterated its commitment to supporting small businesses and ensuring a sensitive, pro-trader governance approach.

The Labour Department has appealed to shopkeepers, trade associations, and entrepreneurs to voluntarily comply with labour laws and make the most of this positive reform to expand their businesses and contribute to the state’s economic growth

Sagar Watch News

Sagar Watch News/ Raising concern over the Madhya Pradesh government’s new excise policy, Democratic Socialist Party leader Raghu Thakur alleged that the move would give a free hand to liquor consumption and lead to a rise in social crimes. 

He said the Excise Department has introduced a provision for issuing temporary licences at ₹500 for hosting liquor parties at homes, with online applications allowed. This would effectively turn houses into liquor bars, disturbing neighbourhoods, he claimed.

Thakur warned that women would face harassment, children could be influenced negatively, and public order would suffer. Citing Bhopal, where around 600 temporary licences were issued for a revenue of just ₹3 lakh, he questioned whether such income justified social harm. 

The party has announced its opposition to the policy and urged citizens to protest by writing to the Chief Minister and Excise Minister.
