Khemka killing: Rahul Gandhi slams BJP, CM Nitish Kumar for making Bihar crime capital of India
Following the fatal shooting of prominent businessman Gopal Khemka outside his Patna residence, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday condemned the incident, stating it once again highlights how the BJP and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar have together turned Bihar into the crime capital of India. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Gandhi wrote in Hindi, The murder of businessman Gopal Khemka in Patna has once again proven that the BJP and Nitish Kumar have turned Bihar into the crime capital of India. - , - Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) July 6, 2025 He accused the ruling alliance of having completely failed in maintaining law and order in the state. Today, Bihar lives in the shadow of loot, gunfire, and murder. Crime has become the new normal here, and the government is nowhere to be seen, Gandhi said. The Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha also urged the people of Bihar to stand up against the injustice and vote not just for a new government, but to save the future of the state. Every murder, every act of loot, every gunshot is a cry for change. This time, the vote is not just to change the government, it is to save Bihar, he added.

No constitutional relevance to SC in-house report on Justice Varma: Kapil Sibal
NEW DELHI: Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal on Saturday said the Supreme Courts in-house inquiry report in Allahabad High Court Judge Yashwant Varmas case has no constitutional relevance as an investigation can only take place under the Judges Inquiry Act. Sibal also accused the government of protecting Justice Shekhar Yadav and questioned the Rajya Sabha Secretariat over its attempt to reach out to him for the reported verification of his signature on the notice to move an impeachment motion against the judge for making communal remarks last year at an event. On the Justice Varma case, Sibal said, Under Article 124 of the Constitution, if 50 members of the Rajya Sabha or 100 members of the Lok Sabha submit a notice for moving a motion (for impeachment), then a judges inquiry committee is set up under the Judges Inquiry Act. But only Parliament has the power to constitute such a committee, said Sibal, who is also a senior advocate. At a joint sitting of both Houses, the impeachment motion has to be passed by a two-thirds majority for it to go through. So, the investigation has to be under the judges inquiry committee set up under the Judges Inquiry Act, he said. The Constitution does not recognise any in-house procedure, Sibal said. The MP also pointed out that Parliament states that the motion for impeachment will be brought by members and not the government. How does a minister make the statement that I will move the motion? The government cannot rely on an in-house procedure, he contended.

Hope Emergency wont be imposed again, says former Justice Hegde
BENGALURU: Former Lokayukta Justice Santosh Hegde here on Friday hoped that Emergency will not be imposed again in India. He was narrating the perils of the draconian law imposed by former prime minister Indira Gandhi in 1975, while participating in a dialogue on the book, The Conscience Network, authored by TNIE columnist Sugata Srinivasaraju. The book chronicles the efforts of three Indian origin youth who resisted Emergency from the US -- PhD students Ravi Chopra and Anand Kumar, and S R Hiremath, a Kannadiga. Justice Hegde, who was a 35 -year-old lawyer then, had arranged the countrys top lawyers to argue before the Karnataka HC for leaders jailed here. The Emergency was declared to save the chair of a person of a family that had already ruled the country for fifty years. Hope such a situation doesnt arise in future, he remarked. Atal Behari Vajpayee, LK Advani, Madhu Dandavate among others who were in Bengaluru for a parliamentary work were detained. Noted lawyer Rama Jois, who came forward to fight their cases, was also jailed. I travelled to Mumbai, Delhi and Chennai and got Soli Sorabji, Shanthi Bushan and Venugopal to argue in the HC, he recalled. Writer K Marulasiddappa said there is an emergency-like situation in the country now as constitutional bodies have become puppets of the Centre. Then, India was Indira, now Modi is avtar purusha (incarnation of God). Those who criticise the government are branded urban Naxalites, he said. He felt there is an emergency-like situation across the world as dictators are ruling all over. Retired IAS officer Chiranjiv Singh, who was the chief censor in Karnataka during the emergency, said the emergency exposed the true colours of leaders as most of them compromised their positions for future political gains. Except for Akali Dal all compromised, he said. At 9 pm (on June 26, 1975) when emergency was clamped, Home Secretary Hanuman called me and asked me not to release the proof copy of The Indian Express until 3 pm. I told him its illegal and asked him to speak to CM (Devaraj Urs), he said. Senior journalist AVS Namboodiri also spoke. Three protagonists of the book took part in an interaction.

Mamata Banerjee urges Amit Shah to act against surge in provocative online content, cybercrimes
KOLKATA : West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has written to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, expressing her deep concern over the proliferation of provocative content on social media and the alarming surge in cybercrimes. Terming the issue as a collective challenge, she stated that it requires urgent and coordinated action to safeguard public order, national unity, and the integrity of the countrys democracy. Banerjee said, In recent times, it has been observed that incendiary narratives, misleading stories and fake videos circulating on social media are contributing significantly to the aggravation of criminal tendencies among certain sections of society. Such content not only spreads misinformation, but also has the potential to inflame communal sentiments, incite violence, disrupt societal harmony and indulge in crime against women. The instantaneous and wide-reaching nature of misuse of digital platforms amplifies these effects manifold, she observed. The West Bengal Chief Minister also stated that the menace of cybercrime is growing both in complexity and in its detrimental impact. Notably, both provocative social media posts and cybercrimes disproportionately affect vulnerable sections of society, women, children, the elderly, and those from economically weaker backgrounds, who are often less equipped to identify, counter or recover from such harm. This exacerbates existing social inequalities and leaves larger segments of our population exposed to profound psychological, financial and social distress, she added. Banerjee called for an urgent need for stringent legislative provisions that can act as an effective deterrent against the creation and dissemination of provocative content and acts perpetrated with criminal intent in cyberspace. In her letter to Shah on Thursday, she said, The current legal framework and its enforcement requires further strengthening to keep pace with the rapidly evolving digital ecosystem and the sophisticated methods employed by malicious actors. Therefore, it is important that the sensitisation programmes, digital literacy campaigns and community engagement initiatives must be pursued vigorously to equip citizens with the tools to critically evaluate online information and to report suspicious activities promptly, Banerjee added.
