Bihar: Pappu Yadav questions the Centre over Nepal policy
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 17 (IANS) Purnea MP Rajesh Ranjan alias Pappu Yadav on Saturday questioned the Narendra Modi government over its response to Gen Z-led political developments in Nepal and Bangladesh, while alleging that the Centre had failed to provide adequate assistance to flood-hit Bihar. Addressing a press conference in Purnea, Yadav criticised the Centre over the alleged lack of financial assistance and public outreach for flood victims in Bihar. He claimed that the Prime Minister had extended financial assistance to Nepal during floods, but had not announced any comparable aid for Bihar amid the ongoing devastating floods. Yadav also alleged that the Prime Minister had neither issued a statement nor posted on social media to console families affected by the floods in Bihar. Referring to political developments in Nepal and Bangladesh, Yadav questioned the Centres approach towards governments and political leaders in the two neighbouring countries. When the Gen Z protest happened in Nepal, followed by a change of regime, the Narendra Modi government recognised the government of Nepal. When the Gen Z protest happened in Bangladesh, why did it provide shelter to Sheikh Hasina? he asked. Yadav also questioned whether the Indian government had any role in the political upheaval in Nepal, while clarifying that the question was his own and had nothing to do with the Congress party. If the Narendra Modi government has recognised the Balen Shah government in Nepal, then why are Delhi Police and other paramilitary forces allegedly using force against our Gen Z protesters in New Delhi? he asked. He also criticised the alleged treatment of women protesters during demonstrations in the national capital. Yadav claimed that the national capital had effectively been turned into a cantonment, alleging that more than one lakh police and security personnel had been deployed to prevent peaceful protests. He further alleged that train and metro services had been suspended, internet access had been restricted in selected areas, and activists had been detained or placed under house arrest for participating in demonstrations and displaying the national flag. Questioning the Centres handling of the protests, Yadav asked why students and young demonstrators were being treated in such a manner. The MPs remarks came amid controversy over police action against protesters in New Delhi. His allegations regarding flood assistance, security deployment and restrictions on transport and internet services were not independently verified in the information available.
NCW chief Vijaya Rahatkar calls for gender-sensitive justice, upholding women's dignity
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 17 (IANS) National Commission for Women (NCW) Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar on Saturday shared insights on gender-sensitive justice and the need for consistency, sensitivity and compassion, referring to two High Court decisions related to sexual offences against women in which the gravity of crimes appeared to have been diluted. In a post on social media platform X, Rahatkar shared details of the two cases in which the accused's offences were interpreted under less severe penal provisions by the High Courts, rejecting pleas to convict them for attempt to commit rape. THE NCW Chief said, Justice must be guided by law and evidence, while its language and reasoning must uphold the dignity of every survivor. Gender-sensitive adjudication is essential to strengthening public confidence in the justice system. Rahatkar added, The National Commission for Women recognises that every case must be decided on its own facts, circumstances, evidence and applicable law. At the same time, these judgments highlight the importance of clarity and consistency in applying the legal distinction between 'preparation' and 'attempt' in sexual offences. One of the cases cited by the NCW chairperson was Md. Ainul Haque versus State of Bihar case from the Patna High Court. The other was from the Allahabad High Court. In the Patna High Court case, the order said, The act of the appellant in entering, late at night, in the dwelling house of a widow who was sleeping, extinguishing the lamp, lying upon her person and pressing her mouth was sufficient to establish an offence under Section 354 IPC (outraging modesty). However, in the absence of evidence of undressing or any act towards penetration, the act did not amount to an attempt to commit rape (IPC Section 376 read with Section 511). The other case, arose from the Allahabad High Court's order relating to the alleged act of pulling a victim's pyjama drawstring, which prompted the Supreme Court to initiate suo motu proceedings, the NCW Chief said. Rahatkar also drew attention towards the National Judicial Academy's published handbook, Judgments and Gender: Sensitivity and Compassion in Writing Judgments, calling for the need for strengthening gender-sensitive judicial reasoning and language. The NCW Chairperson pointed to the key principles incorporated in the handbook that include: Understanding evidence in the context of the trauma experienced by survivors; avoiding language that stereotypes, stigmatises or undermines a survivor's dignity and recognising sexual offences as violations of bodily autonomy, personal dignity and individual rights, rather than viewing them through notions of chastity, family honour or morality. Advocating sensitivity in judicial language, Rahatkar said that gender-sensitive judgments must communicate with fairness, dignity and empathy and treating survivors of sexual violence with respect and compassion, without implying that they are responsible for the offence committed against them.

Bihar: Four, including three minors, drown in Son River in Bhojpur during Navratri
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 17 (IANS) Four people, including three minors, drowned while bathing in the Son River near Teerthkaul village in Bihars Bhojpur district on Saturday. The incident occurred under the jurisdiction of Sandesh police station, plunging the village into mourning during the Navratri festivities. The victims were identified as Akash Kumar (15), Prem Kumar (10), Siddhant Kumar (16) and Sudhir Kumar (25). According to an official, the three minors had gone to the river to bathe when they entered deep water and began to drown. Sudhir Kumar reportedly jumped into the river in an attempt to rescue them, but was also unable to return to safety. The incident triggered panic among residents, who alerted the police and administration. A search operation was subsequently launched, with assistance from rescue personnel and villagers. Sandesh Station House Officer (SHO) Sanjeev Kumar confirmed that four people had died by drowning. The State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) recovered all four bodies from the river, according to officials. The bodies are being sent to Ara for post-mortem examinations, and further legal procedures are underway. Block Development Officer Binesh Kumar and SHO Sanjeev Kumar were present at the site following the incident. News of the tragedy drew a crowd of residents and relatives to the riverbank. The deaths have left the four families devastated and cast a pall of gloom over Teerthkaul and neighbouring areas. The incident highlights the risks of bathing in rivers, where water depth and currents can be difficult to assess. Authorities advise people to avoid entering deep or unfamiliar waters. The surface could be uneven due to the digging of sand. The incident occurred just days after 13 people lost their lives when a boat capsized in the Ganga River in Bihars Vaishali district. The victims were reportedly crossing the river to attend a feast when the boat capsized. Seven people managed to swim to safety.

The party fields candidates for seven of the 13 municipal corporations going to the polls on October 28
NDA partners in Andhra finalise seat-sharing for Urban Local Body polls
Digital Desk | Amaravati, Oct 16 (IANS) Partners in the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Andhra Pradesh have reached a seat sharing agreement for Urban Local Body elections. After several rounds of talks among leaders of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), Jana Sena Party (JSP) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) during the last four days, the allies finalised the seat sharing on Thursday night. Initially there was a deadlock in the talks between TDP and JSP but both the parties adopted a give and take approach to reach an understanding. The NDA partners finalised the seat sharing in line with the aspirations of their leaders and cadres at the field level. As per the agreement for the posts of mayor for 17 municipal corporations, the TDP will contest 11 posts, Jana Sena four and BJP two. The coalition also reached an understanding for the posts of chairpersons of municipalities/nagar panchayats. The TDP will field candidates for 78 posts while Jana Sena will contest in 21 places. Seven posts have been left for the BJP. As per the agreement for all Urban Local Bodies, TDP has been allotted 72.35 per cent of the posts. Jana Sena got a share of 20.33 per cent and BJP 7.32 per cent. If one ally gets the post of mayor/chairman, the other allies will be given the post of deputy mayor/vice-chairperson. The TDP will contest for the posts of mayors of Vizianagaram, Visakhapatnam, Machilipatnam, Mangalgiri-Tadepalli, Guntur, Ongole, Nellore, Kurnool, Kadapa, Tirupati and Chittoor. Jana Sena has been allotted Srikakulam, Kakinada, Eluru and Vijayawada while BJP will field its candidates for mayors in Rajamahendravaram and Anantapuram. The seat adjustment was finalised after several round of talks among top leaders of the NDA partners during the last few days. Chief Minister and TDP National President N. Chandrababu Naidu, TDP state President Palla Srinivasa Rao, Deputy Chief Minister and Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan, state BJP President P.V. N. Madhav and other leaders participated in the talks. The seat-sharing in local body polls is largely in proportion to the respective strength of the three allies in the state Assembly. The NDA, headed by TDP, had stormed to power in 2024 with a landslide majority. The coalition bagged 164 seats in the 175-member Assembly. The TDP has 135 MLAs, while Jana Sena and BJP have 21 and eight seats, respectively. The State Election Commission has already announced the schedule for the elections to urban and rural local bodies. Polling for 100 urban local bodies is scheduled on October 28 while Gram Panchayats will go to polls in three phases in November-December. Out of 123 Urban Local Bodies, the Commission has issued notifications for conduct of elections to 100 Urban Local Bodies (13 Municipal Corporations and 87 Municipalities/Nagar Panchayats). Elections have not been notified now for the remaining 23 Urban Local Bodies (4 Municipal Corporations and 19 Municipalities/Nagar Panchayats) as the pre-election activities for them are underway.
