The procession took place even as Union home minister Rajnath Singh called for talks to end the turmoil in the hills. |

| PM Modi asked his ministers to prepare a report card of their departments in a month. Ministers will have to make a presentation comparing the achievements of their department during the three years of NDA rule with the last three years of UPA, a government source said. As the directive came during a Cabinet meeting last Wednesday and the deadline ends just before the conclusion of the presidential poll, observers see the move as a strong indication that the appraisal may be linked with a ministerial reshuffle. |
