Malegaon blasts: Terror charges against Sadhvi Pragya, Purohit dropped

December 28, 2017 by Nasheman

Mumbai: A special National Investigation Agency (NIA) court here on Wednesday dropped charges under the stringent Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act against Lt Col Prasad Purohit, Sadhvi Pragya Thakur, Ramesh Upadhyay and Ajay Rahikar in the 2008 Malegaon blast case.

While the court dropped all charges under Section 17, 20 and 13 of the the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and the Arms Act, it however, decided that Sadhvi Pragya and Purohit will be tried under Section 18 of the former act as well as Sections 120B, 302, 307, 304, 326, 427 and 153 A of the Indian Penal Code.

All the accused persons are already out on bail, though all previous bonds and sureties will continue, the special NIA court said.

The next date of hearing has been scheduled for January 15.

The court refused to exonerate Sadhvi Pragya from the charges of conspiracy, holding that she was aware about a motorcycle being used to carry out the explosion.

On Monday, the court had dismissed the petitions filed by Purohit and another accused Sameer Kulkarni, challenging the sanction of prosecution under provisions of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.

On September 29, 2008, six people were killed and 101 people injured after a bomb tied to a motorcycle exploded in Nashik’s Malegaon town. The Maharashtra Police’s Anti-Terrorism Squad had arrested 11 people in the case in November 2008. In April 2011, the investigation was transferred to the NIA.

Ensure justice for ‘our bhabhi in Gujarat’ too: Asaduddin Owaisi

December 28, 2017 by Nasheman

New Delhi: Justice should be done to “20 lakh abandoned women” from all religions, including “our bhabhi in Gujarat”, Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi said in the Lok Sabha on Thursday in an apparent reference to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s wife while strongly opposing introduction of the bill that criminalises triple talaq.

Speaking after Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad tabled the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights and Marriage) Bill, the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen MP said it violated the fundamental rights and lacked “basic legal coherence”.

Maintaining that not enough consultation was done on the bill, the member said: “This will be injustice to Muslim women… Make a law where the 20 lakh women from other religions who have been abandoned, which also includes our bhabhi in Gujarat… They should be given justice.”

He also questioned the need to formulate a new law for this because an existing law on domestic violence tackled the matter.

“There is absence of consistency with the existing legal framework. The bill says the husband will be sent to jail, and it also says he will have to pay allowance… How can a person in jail pay allowance,” he said, referring to the provision that a woman given triple talaq will have the right to seek maintenance.

Bill on triple talaq introduced in Lok Sabha

December 28, 2017 by Nasheman

New Delhi: A bill criminalising triple talaq was introduced in the Lok Sabha on Thursday amid protests from the opposition objecting to its introduction, and an assurance from Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad that “it was not about religion but about justice and respect for women”.

Members from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM), Indian Union Muslim League (IUML), Biju Janata Dal and some other parties spoke against the introduction of The Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Bill, 2017.

No member from the Congress was, however, allowed to speak, as Speaker Sumitra Mahajan said that they had not given a notice in advance to speak on the issue.

Prasad called it a historic day and stated that the Bill was to ensure gender justice for Muslim women.

The Bill was introduced after a voice vote as all treasury benches members supported the introduction.

The Bill criminalises triple talaq, or oral divorce, and has provision for a maximum three year jail term and fine for practicing this form of divorce.

It also gives Muslim women the right to seek maintenance and the right to a child’s custody.

Soon after Prasad moved the bill for introduction, opposition members raised objections.

RJD leader Jay Prakash Narayan Yadav said the provision for three year imprisonment was unfair, and said it could disturb the social fabric.

AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi said the Bill violated the fundamental rights and lacked “basic legal coherence”.

He also questioned the need to create another law for this, while there was an existing law on domestic violence.

“There is absence of consistency with the existing legal framework. The bill says the husband will be sent to jail, and it also says he will have to pay allowance… How can a person in jail pay allowances,” he said referring to the provision that a woman given triple talaq will have the right to seek maintenance.

He said not enough consultation was done on the Bill, and added: “This will be injustice to Muslim women… Make a law where the 20 lakh women from other religions, who have been abandoned, which also includes our Bhabhi in Gujarat, they should be given justice”.

IUML MP E.T. Mohammed Basheer said it was in violation of Article 25 of the Constitution that provides for freedom of practicing and propagating religion.

BJD leader Bhartruhari Mahtab said there were many internal contradictions in the Bill.

“This Bill will only bring more cases in court, government should go back and redraft it,” he said.

Prasad said: “This law is not about religion, it is about gender justice, the dignity and pride of a woman. The Supreme Court called it illegal, but the practice still prevails. Are not the basic rights of our sisters a part of the basic structure of Constitution”.

The Bill was then introduced in the House, and was to be taken up for debate later in the day.

Speaking outside Parliament, Congress spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala later said the party supported the Bill, adding that there was a need to strengthen the law.

“The party supports the law of banning instant triple talaq and we believe that there is a dire need to strengthen this law. We have certain suggestions to solidify this law in order to protect the rights of these women,” he said.

In a written reply to the Lok Sabha last week, Prasad had said that there have been 66 cases of triple talaq in the country since August when the Supreme Court judgment termed the practice as “unconstitutional”.

Anant Kumar Hegde apologises for ‘constitution change’ comments

December 28, 2017 by Nasheman

New Delhi: Union Minister Anant Kumar Hegde tendered an apology in the Lok Sabha on Thursday for his statement on changing the Constitution, even as he maintained that his comments were “put out of context”.

Soon after the House met, Hegde said: “I deeply respect the Constitution, Parliament and Babasaheb Ambedkar. The Constitution is supreme for me, there can be no question on it, as a citizen I can never go against it.”

Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge, however, said that Hegde had spoken against Ambedkar.

Speaker Sumitra Mahajan then urged the member to apologise. “Sometimes in life we feel what we have said is right, but others may still get hurt,” she said.

Hegde then extended an apology and said: “My words have been twisted and presented, I never said all this… But if someone was hurt, I apologise to those members.”

The Union Minister for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship at a function in Kukanur in Karnataka on Monday urged people to “claim with pride that they are Muslim, Christian, Lingayat, Brahmin, or a Hindu”.

He said: “Those who, without knowing about their parental blood, call themselves secular, they don’t have their own identity…They don’t know about their parentage, but they are intellectuals.

“Some people say the Constitution says secular and you must accept it. We will respect the Constitution, but the Constitution has changed several times and it will change in the future too. We are here to change the Constitution and we’ll change it soon.”

The comments led to disruptions in both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha on Wednesday when Parliament met after a four-day-long break.

Hamas warns against US ‘deal of the century’

December 27, 2017 by Nasheman

Haniya says the US offered Abu Dis to the PA as the capital of a future Palestinian state [Said Khatib/AFP]

by Al Jazeera

Hamas leader Ismail Haniya has said that the US had offered the Palestinian Authority a Jerusalem suburb, Abu Dis, as an alternative to East Jerusalem for the capital of a future Palestinian state.

Speaking at a meeting with Palestinian clan leaders in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, Haniya labelled President Donald Trump’s recent decision, to recognise Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, a ploy to demolish the Palestinian cause in line with the so-called deal of the century.

“The US is still offering deals and continues to be on the side of the Palestinian Authority (PA) one way or another, in order to give them a capital or entity in the Abu Dis area, away from Jerusalem, with a bridge linking to al-Aqsa Mosque allowing for the freedom of prayer,” he said.

Haniya said certain regional forces are seeking to divide the West Bank into three sections, in addition to creating a political entity in the Gaza Strip with its own controlling powers.

Al Jazeera’s Wael al-Dahdouh, reporting from Gaza City, said Haniya cautioned local, regional and international players against working to implement the US plan for the Middle East, which is yet to be published.

Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law and a White House adviser, has been spearheading efforts to gauge the possibility of resuming the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.

“Haniya sent a warning to all the parties that are involved in this ‘deal of the century’, whether they are Palestinian, Arab or Muslim, or international,” Dahdouh said.

“There are also signs that the Israelis will take advantage of this deal to impose their version of facts on the ground, such as the Judaization of Jerusalem bill that will be voted on tomorrow.”

Haniya said the US decision to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel introduces new risks that could affect the nature of the relationship between Palestine and Jordan.

He cited reports of discussions regarding an alternative homeland for Palestinians and a confederation between Jordan and Palestine.

Haniya said he has spoken to King Abdullah of Jordan about what he saw as the dangers arising from the Jerusalem decision, the resettlement project and alternative homeland.

He also asked Palestinians to continue their “uprising” against Trump’s decision, and for popular movements in the Arab and Muslim capitals to carry on their protests.

Addressing the ongoing reconciliation process between the two, main Palestinian groups, Fatah and Hamas, Haniya said internal, political issues need to be addressed quickly in order for a unified government to devote itself to major, national ones.

He also sounded a warning regarding the potential “grave” consequences of the slow implementation of the Egypt-brokered reconciliation agreement, which was signed in October in Cairo by Fatah and Hamas representatives.

For his part, Yahya Sinwar, the prime minister of the Hamas government, speaking at Tuesday’s meeting in Gaza, called for efforts to support reconciliation efforts aimed at “uniting in the battle of Jerusalem”.

He also demanded that the Palestinian leadership “convene the unified leadership framework of the Palestinian Liberation Organisation (PLO) in the presence of all Palestinians”.

Karnataka farmers petition Governor, CM for Mahadayi water

December 27, 2017 by Nasheman

Image Source

Over 200 farmers from the state took to the streets here on Wednesday and submitted a petition to the Governor, Chief Minister and other political leaders, demanding release of the Mahadayi river water by Goa.

“We have submitted a memorandum to the Governor (Vajubhai R.Vala)’s office and the Chief Minister’s office requesting for the release of water from Mahadayi river (from neighbouring Goa) to the drought-hit state of Karnataka,” general secretary of the state farmers’ association Rait Sena Karnataka, H.S. Madiwalar told IANS here.

The farmers, who have been staging a protest in the city for the past four days outside the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)’s state unit office in the western suburb, have also met the leaders of the Janata Dal (Secular).

“We hope that JD(S) leader and former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda will support us and help us in getting drinking water from the river as both parties in the state — Congress and BJP — have only been blaming each other over the issue,” Madiwalar said.

The BJP state unit leaders were whisked away by the police from the Congress office in the city centre after they staged a demonstration on Wednesday against the ruling party’s failure to resolve the issue.

Several Karnataka Rakshana Vedike (KRV) members, who were also staging protests along with the farmers outside the Governor’s official residence Raj Bhavan and other locations, were detained by the police.

The 77-km-long Mahadayi or Mandovi river originates at Bhimgad in the Western Ghats in Belagavi district of northwest Karnataka and flows into neighbouring Goa and eventually joins the Arabian Sea off the west coast.

Although the river flows 29 km in Karnataka and 52 km in Goa, its catchment area is spread over 2,032 km in the southern state as against 1,580 km in Goa.

Karnataka has been asking Goa since 2001 to release 7.6 tmcft (thousand million cubic feet) of the river water to meet the drinking needs of its people in Hubballi-Dharwad, Gadag, Bagalkote and Belagavi districts and irrigating their farmlands.

Karnataka plans to build two canals at Kalasa and Banduri, which are the tributaries of the river in the state, to divert and supply the water to the four districts.

While Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to intervene in the inter-state dispute over sharing of the river water, BJP’s state unit chief B.S. Yeddyurappa said the state Congress leaders should convince their Goan counterparts to allow their Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar to settle the issue amicably.

Say No to Binge Drinking

December 27, 2017 by Nasheman

Dr. Lorance Peter, Senior Consultant Gastroenterologist, Columbia Asia Hospital Sarjapur Road share some inputs on the symptoms and ways it can be prevented
Bengaluru, December 27, 2017: It’s December and yay the party time of the year is back. The week from Christmas to New Year is the time where a lot of social gatherings and public events happen and people drinking alcohol is very common. While many of them consume alcoholic beverages responsibly, binge drinking has become common nowadays among people from all ages.

What is binge drinking?

Binge drinking is where a person drinks alcohol until he/she is totally drunk or intoxicated and this increases the risk of violence, leading to injuries many a times. It is also associated with numerous health conditions, which would result in both emotional and economical costs. Drinking 6 units of alcohol in a very short span, say about an hour, would increase the blood alcohol concentration level. But drinking the same amount over several hours, as well as eating food, would incur a less effect on one’s blood alcohol concentration (BAC).

Some of the numerous consequences include:

Liver disorders leading to dysfunction
Stroke
Hypertension and cardiovascular disorders
Accidents (R. T.A)
Unsafe sex, which risks the changes of sexually transmitted diseases
Psychological issues

Here are some safe alcohol consumption tips to our party crowd:

Alcohol consumers should be aware of how much alcohol can be consumed safely, and they should start limiting themselves, considering the further consequences.

It’s always recommended not to refill the half empty- glass, as it’s difficult to keep a count on the amount of alcohol consumed.

Alcoholic consumption has to be spaced in-between by having a glass of water or soft drinks.

It’s always advisable to avoid party fun games like “rounds” or “shouts”, as this encourages the crowd to keep up with the person who is drinking the fastest, and the chances of binge drinking is always high here.

To avoid excessive alcohol drinking, one has to keep themselves busy by dancing, chatting or having fun, because sitting idle can keep oneself motivated to consume alcohol.
Planning a party- venue which is alcohol-free is always advisable.

From the concern of better health, it’s always advisable to cut back on alcohol, which in turn helps in improvised health. Cutting down on alcohol is always beneficial to manage your weight, as some drinks contain high calories. Intoxication also leads to a range of injuries like the one’s associated with drink and drive, showcasing poor behaviour and also risk one’s mental and physical well-being.

845 rescued, 661 still missing since Cyclone Ockhi

December 27, 2017 by Nasheman

New Delhi: The defence forces and other agencies involved in rescue operations when Cyclone Ockhi battered southern India saved 845 lives, but 661 fishermen still remain missing, Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman told the Lok Sabha on Wednesday.

In a written response to a question, Nirmala said the navy, the air force and the coast guard saved the lives of 821 people until December 20. Another 24 lives were saved by other agencies, including merchant navy vessels.

Of the total 845 people rescued, 453 were from Tamil Nadu, 362 from Kerala, and 30 from Lakshadweep and Minicoy islands. However, the defence minister said 661 fishermen were still missing.

 
The majority of those untraceable are from Tamil Nadu (400) and Kerala (261), the worst-hit states when Cyclone Ockhi swept through the coastlines of southern India.
The cyclone had caught many fishermen off guard after it formed quickly in the Arabian Sea in early December.

Allu Sirish Surrounded By Rumors

December 27, 2017 by Shaheen Raaj

Allu Sirish was surrounded by a lot of rumors but it seems now all the rumors have died down its natural death and post the rumors, Allu Sirish has also calmed down. Allu Sirish had recently done a lot of hungama for his upcoming movie Okka Kshanam when the film’s trailer hit the YouTube Channel. He claimed that the thriller will be one – of – a – kind and that it was totally original in terms of concept. Well, many fell for his claims. But it was only a matter of time when trouble began for him. His followers on Twitter started trolling him once it became clear that the film’s basic concept was similar to the Korean film Parallel Life. As he was struggling to respond to the allegations, production house AK Entertainments released a trailer of their film 2 Manamiddaram and officially declared that it had bought the remake rights of the Korean movie Parallel Life. Both director VI Anand & Allu Sirish have become silent on this issue and have stopped bombarding the media as well as the audiences with promotional material. It surely looks like they have been impacted by the allegations of copying the Korean film. But one can only figure that out once the film hits the celluloid silver screens.

Akhil Akklineni All Set For A Surprise

Akhil Akkineni is all set for a surprise. By now, it is known that Hello is the film made by Annapurna Studios for Akhil Akkineni. The film’s producer is Nagarjuna Akkineni & his younger son Akhil Akkineni is playing the lead in the film. But Akhil Akkineni hasn’t been paid a penny till now for acting in the film, says Nagarjuna Akkineni. However, there is a catch here. If the film turns out to be a hit, Akhil Akkineni will be getting two crores. Well, he will not receive the amount in cash, but he will get a thoughtful gift from his doting father. Nagarjuna Akkineni is said to be planning to gift, an imported car worth two crore to his son. As of now, both Akhil Akkineni and Nagarjuna Akkineni are totally busy in promoting the film big time.

Dulquer Salmaan Not To Star In Lal Jose’s Next Movie

Dulquer Salmaan will not star in Lal Jose’s next movie. Dulquer Salmaan was supposed to be teaming up with director Lal Jose for an upcoming movie titled Oru Bhayankara Kamukan, the shooting of which has been postponed due to the actor’s busy schedule. Now the latest update on this is that Lal Jose is planning to start his next film with multifaceted Sreenivasan. This yet to be titled movie is scripted by Unni R & is produced by Shebin Backer who was supposed to produce Oru Bhayankara Kamukan as well. This upcoming movie is being planned to go on the floors on 25th Jan, 2018. As Sreenivasan & Lal Jose together have delivered several hits, expectation from the upcoming flick is sky high!

Nani Thrashes All The Rumors

Nani is extremely pained with the rumors about his personal life. Nani, who is having the best phase of his career, doesn’t seem to be entirely happy. The issue is not with his career. The rising popularity and the success have also brought him some headaches like rumors. Nani is largely a non – controversial star in Tollywood and until recently not much rumors were written about him. “I am aware that being a star we have to face criticism and also have to handle gossip. As long as they criticize or bitch about my movies or performances, my attitude is fine. But the moment they write baseless news about my personal life, it hurts deeply. I went through similar incident recently,” Nani averred. He didn’t elaborate much but Nani further stated that a website wrote baseless personal gossip that hurt him badly. He requested the media to maintain a dignity while writing such news. “Gossip is fine but not baseless rumors about personal lives,” he asserts. Perhaps this is about his linkup with actress Nivetha Thomas.

Ravi Teja Creates Trouble

Ravi Teja has recently caused a rift between his two producers and made them to part ways. It so happened that Venkat Talari & Ram Talluri, the producer’s duo that had made Chuttalabbayi together is now going solo. They have given advances to several heroes hoping to start many ventures together. However, they have now parted ways. Still Ram Talluri has stuck to movie production and he has now officially announced a movie with Ravi Teja in the direction of Kalyan Krishna. The two producer friends are now said to have parted ways due to the differences regarding the budget for this Ravi Teja movie. Ravi Teja is taking home ten crores for this film which is too high given his current market value. Venkat Talari is said to have opposed the idea of paying such huge remuneration to Ravi Teja as it would be tough to recover the production cost even if it becomes a hit. Hence, Ram Talluri is producing this as a solo producer after Venkat Talari opted out of the joint production. After modest success of recently released Raja The Great, Ravi Teja feels that he has bounced back in a big way. Hence, he has started quoting ten crores as remuneration.

Vivek Oberoi Becomes A Talk Of The Southern Town

Vivek Oberoi, the bollywoodian actor has recently become the talk of the Southern town. He has indeed become a name to be reckoned with in the Southern film industry. Vivek Oberoi seems to have really become a name to reckon with in the Southern film industry. After playing a baddie in Ajith’s Vivegam, and signing on a key role in Prabhas’ forthcoming Saaho, it looks like the South Indian film industry is embracing him big time. The latest is that the actor is in consideration for a role in Ram Charan’s upcoming film with Boyapati Srinu. Close sources informs, “It will be a very crucial role and Vivek Oberoi has been approached by the team, although it is to be seen what the result of their discussions will be. Vivek Oberoi has often been inclined towards Hyderabad. He’s good friends with Ram Charan too and seems keen to take up the part, provided the role is to his liking.” Meanwhile, a hunt is on for the film’s female lead. With Ram Charan busy wrapping up Rangasthalam 1985, Boyapati Srinu and his team are keen to put the cast and the crew in place in time for him to start the shooting.

Amala Paul Skips A Date

Amala Paul recently skipped a date with Crime Branch. Amala Paul, who was summoned by the Crime Branch over a case relating to allegedly forging documents to register her high – end vehicle in Puducherry, failed to turn up recently at their office. Her advocate informed the Crime Branch that the actress needed more time due to her tight filming schedules. Crime Branch officials said that they would file a case after getting an explanation from the star. A preliminary inquiry conducted by the Crime Branch found that the insurance policies and even the fake rent contracts were raised to support the claim that the stars were living in Puducherry. The Crime Branch also received a report from the motor vehicles department, apart from the video visuals.

Sai Pallavi is now all set to star opposite Suriya in a Selvaraghavan film. There is a strong rumor doing the rounds in K – Town that Sai Pallavi met director Selvaraghavan, but nothing is confirmed yet. A point to be noted is that Selvaraghavan will be starting his next project with Suriya and if Sai Pallavi is on board, this is a fresh new combo which fans of both the maverick director & actor are looking forward to. During the promotions of Theeran Adhigaara Ondru, Rakul Preet Singh had given a hint that she is likely to do the Suriya project as she has a two film deal with Dream Warrior Pictures who are the producers of this untitled project. In fact there are two heroines and Rakul Preet Singh might also be a part of the film. If Sai Pallavi agrees to do this project, it will be a coup of sorts. This role will not be a decorative piece and Sai Pallavi will have a meaty character in the movie.
