People who failed to respond to the 12-year-old rape survivor’s cries for help in Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain may be held accountable under the child sex abuse laws, the police have said. A senior Madhya Pradesh police officer told  NDTV  that those people will be charged for “failing to report or register the commission” of a crime under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. Jayant Singh Rathore, an Additional Superintendent of Police (Ujjain) said that one such person, an autorickshaw driver named Rakesh Malviya, has been identified for knowingly not informing the police of the crime. “If more people are found, and it is clear they did not help (the girl) or did not inform the police, we will take legal action,” Rathore said. In a shocking video, the minor girl, who was seen knocking door-to-door to ask for help as she was soaked in blood, was shooed away by people.

The state of Manipur is back in the news. Violence has erupted once again. The reason? Same as last time – a crime from the past has surfaced online. Here’s what happened this week: Manipur’s government lifted its Internet ban and the state went online after five months. Immediately pictures of two students – a 17-year-old girl and a 20-year-old boy – began to circulate. The two had gone missing on July 6. The families did approach the police and a complaint was filed two days later on July 8 but there was no progress. The cops said both students had gone into a Kuki-dominated area and after that, no one saw them. Now, the Kukis are a tribal group in Manipur and are locked in a violent faceoff with another community – the Meitis. More than 170 people have died so far and this week the two missing students joined that list. The viral pictures showed their dead bodies – the male student was reportedly beheaded, and the girl student was allegedly raped. As these pictures spread, so di

Normalcy in Karnataka will be hit today as the southern state is witnessing another bandh. Pro-Kannada organisations have declared a day of shutdown in the state, opposing the release of Cauvery river water to neighbouring Tamil Nadu. Lives of the common man will be affected, as public transport as well as Ola and Uber drivers will stay off the roads; shops, eateries and theatres will also keep their shutters down, and schools and colleges have also declared a day off today in view of the strike.

The Manipur government is considering the implementation of a ‘one district, one force’ policy to enhance coordination and operational efficiency among security forces, as part of its efforts to restore peace in the northeastern state, which has been plagued by ethnic violence since 3 May. According to a Hindustan Times report, under this arrangement, each district will have dedicated personnel from a paramilitary force responsible for maintaining law and order. A security official in Delhi explained that this approach aims to promote accountability and minimise the potential for conflicts between different security forces. According to the report, citing an anonymous official, a unified command under the leadership of security advisor Kuldiep Singh is expected to reorganise security personnel throughout the state to implement the “one district, one force” framework. “Having one force to look after a particular district will help in coordination and also fix accountability.

India is considering importing cheetahs from northern Africa due to concerns that some of these big cats from Namibia and South Africa have developed a winter coat in Indian summer, officials said on Wednesday. According to officials, one of the biggest challenges faced in the first year of managing cheetahs in India was the unexpected development of winter coats by some cheetahs during the Indian summer and monsoon, in anticipation of the African winter (June to September). Even African experts did not expect it, a senior forest official said. The winter coat, combined with high humidity and temperatures, caused itching, prompting the animals to scratch their necks on tree trunks or the ground. This led to bruises and exposed skin, where flies laid their eggs, resulting in maggot infestations and, ultimately, bacterial infections and septicaemia, leading to the death of three cheetahs, the official explained. “Cheetahs in northern and north-eastern Africa, which is in the northern

There’s no peace for the northeastern state of Manipur. Five months after the state witnessed clashes – first in May during a tribal solidarity march – unrest has once again erupted, prompting authorities to re-impose a ban on mobile devices accessing the internet. The ban, which has been imposed until 1 October, comes just days after the state government had lifted similar orders, which had been in place after the ethnic violence between the Meitei and Kuki tribes had led to the killing of 175 people and injuring hundreds of others. Speaking from New York, where he had earlier addressed the United Nations General Assembly, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar told the Council on Foreign Relations that the state and the central governments were trying to find a way by which a sense of normalcy returns. “I think one part of the problem in Manipur has been the destabilising impact of migrants who have come.

The issue of equitable water distribution between Haryana and Punjab was brought up by the Haryana government on Tuesday at the 31st Northern Zonal Council meeting in Amritsar. Punjab is deceiving about the Sutlej Yamuna Link’s construction, according to Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, who was speaking at the 31st meeting of the Northern Zonal Council (NZC), which was presided over by Union Home Minister Amit Shah. “Punjab government is continuously misleading on the construction of Satluj Yamuna Link (SYL). They are continuously saying that the availability of water has reduced, but the construction of the canal and the availability of water are two different issues,” the Haryana government said. Additionally, he asked that work on the Sutlej-Yamuna Link Canal (SYL) canal in the Punjab region be finished. The administration also claimed that Pakistan receives the excess unchanneled water from the Sutlej, Ravi, and Beas rivers. “In the last 10 years, an average of 1.68

The recent images went viral days after two Kuki women in Manipur were stripped and paraded by a mob on 4 May. The video of the incident surfaced on 19 July.

It seems that India has had enough. Enough of the Khalistani threat. Amid worsening ties with Canada over the killing of Khalistani leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar, India has decided to go hard on Khalistani terrorists living on foreign soil – mostly the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Dubai, Pakistan, and Australia. Over the weekend, reports emerged that the government had tasked the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to draw up a list of Khalistanis and confiscate their properties in India. Moreover, India is also looking at cancelling their Overseas Citizenship Card (OCI) cards so as to not allow them to enter the country. The move comes after the NIA, on Saturday, seized properties in Punjab belonging to Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) group chief Gurpatwant Singh Pannun. Two of his properties were confiscated by the NIA team in Amritsar and Chandigarh. The probe agency also confiscated 46 kanals of Pannun’s agricultural land in his ancestral village of Khankot in Amritsar distri

After an 11-hour debate, the Rajya Sabha unanimously approved the women’s reservation bill on Thursday. After the Lok Sabha approved the bill on Wednesday, the Opposition questioned the fact that the 33% female quota in the Lok Sabha and state legislatures will not take effect until after the census and redistricting.

After hours and hours of debate on Wednesday (20 September), the Lok Sabha passed The Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam — The Constitution (One Hundred and Twenty-Sixth Amendment) Bill, 2023 – which reserves 33 per cent quota for women in Lok Sabha and state/UT legislative Assemblies. At the final count, the lower house had passed the women’s reservation bill with 454 members voting in favour and two against it. Prime Minister Narendra Modi was present during the voting on the bill, which was the first to be passed in the new Parliament building . Today (21 September), the bill is likely to pass the Rajya Sabha hurdle and become a law after the President’s assent. However, don’t expect to see changes in the Assemblies or Parliament immediately. The 33 per cent quota, in fact, won’t come into play at least until 2029 . Why? This is because reservation has been made contingent on the delimitation exercise. The new bill , introduced by the BJP-led Centre, has inserted one article – 334A – w
