Cant assume investigating agencys role or conduct a mini-trial: HC

Observing that it could not assume the role of an investigating agency or conduct a mini-trial, the High Court of J&K and Ladakh has refused to quash an FIR registered against a 61-year-old man for alleged cheating and criminal conspiracy. A bench of Justice Wasim Sadiq Nargal, while dismissing one S.S. Aryas plea, held that the allegations disclosed prima facie cognizable offences and that disputed questions of fact could not be adjudicated in proceedings under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC). Notably, Section 482 of CrPCnow corresponding to section 528 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita ( BNSS) recognises and preserves the inherent powers of a High Court to quash an FIR or complaint. Arya had sought to quash the FIR registered under Sections 420 (cheating) and 120-B (criminal conspiracy) of IPC, along with a notice issued to him under Section 160 of CrPC. The dispute originated from allegations that the petitioner and co-accused J Nain had induced complainant P Gandhotra to invest around Rs 77 lakh in connection with an NH-40 road-maintenance contract in Andhra Pradesh, allegedly assuring him a 10 per cent partnership. According to the complainant, only Rs 17 lakh was subsequently returned, leaving around Rs 60 lakh unpaid. In his plea, Arya, however, maintained that the dispute was essentially civil and arose from financial dealings concerning a proposed purchase of a plot in Gurugram. He relied upon agreements, bank transactions and alleged repayments to contend that approximately Rs 61.59 lakh had already been paid back. The complainant disputed this version, maintaining that the Gurugram property transaction was entirely separate from the NH-40 contract. He contended that the petitioner was attempting to club unrelated transactions to portray the criminal case as a civil dispute. The Court observed that the rival versions raised disputed questions concerning the nature of the transactions, bank transfers, agreements, the affidavit dated March 3, 2021, and the alleged repayments. Such issues required investigation and appreciation of evidence and could not be conclusively determined while exercising inherent jurisdiction under Section 482 CrPC, it said. The Court noted that the allegations in the FIR, taken at face value, contained specific assertions regarding inducement, payment of substantial amounts, the proposed 10 per cent partnership in the NH-40 contract and the alleged involvement of the accused persons. These allegations, if taken at their face value, are sufficient to require an investigation, it observed About the issues as to whether the representation was actually made, whether the complainant was induced by it, whether there was dishonest intention from the inception and whether the money was subsequently repaid, the court said these were matters requiring factual determination. In response to the challenge to the jurisdiction of the Economic Offence Wing, the Court declined to conclusively determine the issue at this stage, saying that the question of the requisite territorial or statutory nexus had to be examined based on material collected during investigation.

JK Cong urges CM to intervene for hike in stipend of medical interns

Jammu, Aug 31: Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee president Tariq Hameed Karra on Monday urged Chief Minister Omar Abdullah to intervene in the ongoing protest by medical interns and ensure an early and meaningful enhancement in their stipend. Jammu and Kashmir has probably emerged as the lowest-paying region for MBBS and BDS interns among the states and Union Territories listed in a comparative chart circulated by protesting medical interns, with a monthly stipend of just Rs 12,300, prompting them to launch an indefinite strike on Monday demanding its immediate revision to Rs 30,000. In a letter addressed to the chief minister, Karra said the demand of the protesting medical interns was genuine and deserved sympathetic and immediate consideration. Medical interns constitute an essential part of the healthcare delivery system and shoulder significant responsibilities in hospitals while undergoing their compulsory internship, he said. These young doctors routinely work long and demanding hours, including 36-hour shifts, attending to patients and performing their duties with dedication and commitment, Karra said. He pointed out that the stipend being provided to medical interns in Jammu and Kashmir was considerably lower than that offered in several other parts of the country. When interns elsewhere are being provided better financial support for comparable responsibilities and working hours, the demand of our medical interns for a reasonable enhancement in stipend merits serious consideration, he said. Karra urged Omar to direct the authorities concerned to engage with the protesting interns, listen to their grievances and work towards an early and satisfactory resolution of the issue. The Congress leader said positive government intervention at this stage would not only address a legitimate concern of the medical fraternity but also boost the morale of young doctors who contribute significantly to the functioning of hospitals and healthcare institutions. He hoped the government would prioritise the matter and take necessary steps for a meaningful hike in the stipend of medical interns in Jammu and Kashmir, in line with their responsibilities and the prevailing stipends in other parts of the country. The interns said their stipend had remained unchanged for nearly seven years despite repeated representations and protests, while the cost of living and stipends offered to interns in several other states had increased substantially. According to the comparative figures displayed by the interns, Odisha tops the list with a monthly stipend of Rs 44,319, followed by West Bengal at Rs 43,099 and Assam at Rs 35,000. Karnataka pays Rs 30,000, while Kerala offers Rs 27,300 and Delhi and Meghalaya Rs 26,300 each. The stipend in Telangana is listed at Rs 25,900, while Arunachal Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh offer Rs 25,000 each. Tamil Nadu's stipend is shown at around Rs 25,000, followed by Haryana at Rs 24,310 and Andhra Pradesh at around Rs 21,840. Gujarat, Bihar, Goa and Himachal Pradesh are listed at around Rs 20,000 a month, while Puducherry offers Rs 18,000.

Nepal flash floods death toll reaches 788; over 140 Indian nationals evacuated

The catastrophic flash floods and landslides triggered by an ice-rock avalanche along the Tibet border have left nearly 788 people dead and thousands missing, prompting intense rescue operations involving 20,000 security personnel and 14 military helicopters. Providing details on the ongoing crisis and the status of regional citizens, the Government of Andhra Pradesh has reported that the death toll on Monday, at 07: 00 am, has risen to 788, with an estimated 2,500-3,000 persons still missing or uncontactable and more than 8,700 people who were evacuated by security forces. Multiple Indian nationals remain untraceable following massive flash floods and landslides in Nepal, while authorities confirm that at least 149-180 Indians have been evacuated, and approximately 275-320 remain missing/uncontactable. Among them are 14 pilgrims of Andhra Pradesh origin, 7 from AP and 7 NRIs. Meanwhile, a group of 20 Telugu pilgrims safely reached Kathmandu from Tibet after surviving devastating flash floods that swept across Nepal, even as authorities continue frantic search efforts for hundreds of missing individuals. Outlining the successful evacuation timeline and transit plans, the Government of Andhra Pradesh informed that Telugu pilgrims were safely evacuated on Sunday at approximately 11:00 pm; a group of 144 pilgrims safely reached Kathmandu from Saga County, Tibet, through the Kodari checkpoint. The group includes 20 Telugu pilgrims, including Sastry and three members of his family. They are scheduled to travel to Mumbai tomorrow for onward journeys to their respective homes. State authorities are maintaining continuous communication with Nepalese counterparts to track and rescue stranded citizens as secondary risks emerge from a dangerous temporary lake formed in Tibet following severe flooding. However, nearly 20,000 security personnel and 14 military helicopters remain deployed, with six specialised surgical teams providing emergency medical assistance. India's specialised tunnel-rescue team and technical experts are assisting operations at the Trishuli-3A hydropower tunnel, where workers remain trapped. The Government of Andhra Pradesh has confirmed that more than 25 miles of roads and 40 suspension bridges have reportedly been destroyed. Heavy rainfall, landslides, blocked valleys and a potentially dangerous temporary lake in Tibet continue to pose serious secondary risks.
