Nagarjuna’s N-Convention Centre in Hyderabad demolished by authorities, the actor to take legal action saying it is on private land and there is stay order against demolition

Actor Nagarjuna expressed his disappointment with the demolition of his N Convention hall by HYDRAA on Saturday.

Nagarjuna wrote on his X handle,” Pained by the unlawful manner of demolition carried out in respect of N Convention, contrary to existing stay orders and Court cases. I thought it fit to issue this statement to place on record certain facts for protecting my reputation and to indicate that we have not done any actions in violation of law.”

He clarified that the land on which the N Convention Centre stands is private property (Patta land) and asserted that no part of the structure encroaches upon any tank plan. And also shared there was already a stay order in place preventing any demolition, issued in response to an earlier notice deemed illegal by his legal team.

“The land is a Patta land, and not even an inch of tank plan is encroached. In respect of the building constructed inside the private land, there is a stay order granted against any earlier illegal notice for demolition. Today clearly, the demolition was carried out wrongfully based on misinformation. No notice was issued prior to carrying out the demolition this morning. As a law-abiding citizen, if the Court before which the matter is pending, had decided against me, I would have carried out the demolition myself,” Nagarjuna added.

The actor revealed that he would seek appropriate legal remedies in response to what he views as wrongful actions by the authorities.

His post read, “I am placing this on record for the purpose of correcting any public misimpression about wrongful constructions or encroachment by us. We would be seeking appropriate relief from the Court in relation to the wrong actions carried out by the authorities.”

Officials of Hyderabad Disaster Management and Asset Protection Agency (HYDRAA), along with the police, carry out a demolition drive at N Convention Hall near Shilparamam in Rangareddy district.

“HYDRAA officials have started demolishing the N Convention Hall this morning and we have deployed police force to ensure the demolition is carried out smoothly, as the land comes under the FTL zone,” said Madhapur DCP.

Another conspiracy to derail train? Farrukhabad Express narrowly escapes major accident, loco pilot finds wooden logs on railway track

On Friday (23rd August) night, the Farrukhabad Express plying between Kasganj and Farrukhabad narrowly averted a major accident after coming in contact with a wooden log placed on the railway track.

As per reports, the train experienced a sudden jolt, forcing the loco pilot to apply emergency brakes and bring the train to a halt. It was later discovered that the wooden log had stuck to the train’s engine.

After that, the railway workers removed the wooden log and cleared the track. The train resumed services after 25 minutes. On reaching the Shamshabad railway station, the loco pilot reported the matter.

On Saturday (24th August) morning, a team of investigators from Kasganj and Bareilly reached the crime scene to investigate the matter.

They were accompanied by the Government Railway Police (GRP), Railway Protection Force (RPF) and the dog squad. The team also visited the neighbouring villages to investigate the matter.

This is not the first time that such a case has come to light. On the night of 17th August, the engine of the Sabarmati Express train derailed near Govindpuri station in Kanpur.

Soon after, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw informed that the derailment took place because of an object placed on the railway track.

It was later revealed by the investigative authorities that a broken piece of railway track was kept on the train line to facilitate the accident.

Recently, an investigation was launched into a suspected act of sabotage after the engine of the Nainpur Jabalpur train collided with an extraneous iron rod placed on the track near Kachhpura station.

The collision, however, did not result in the derailment of the train. The railway authorities have seized 3 iron rods of about 15 feet in length from the spot.

On Thursday (22nd August), the Aligarh Railway Police charged one Afsan for deliberately placing an alloy wheel on the railway track to derail a moving train.

The incident occurred on 20th August when the accused made a deliberate attempt to recreate the Kanpur rail accident that happened on 17th August.

Earlier this month, a YouTuber named Gulzar Sheikh was arrested for putting different items on railway tracks including cycles, soaps, stones and more in the name of content creation.

After Centre, Rajasthan govt lifts ban on government employees participating in RSS activities

The BJP government in Rajasthan has revoked the long-standing ban on government employees participating in RSS activities.

Rajendra Singh Kavia, Joint Secretary of the Department of Personnel, issued a circular referencing previous orders, lifting the 52-year-old prohibition.

According to the circular, after reviewing the directives from 1972 and 1981, it was decided to remove the RSS from the list of organizations whose activities were previously banned.

Earlier, the central government had also lifted a ban on government employees engaging with the RSS.

In a historic move, the Modi government has lifted a 58-year-old ban on government employees participating in the activities of Rashtriya Swayam Sevak Sangh (RSS). The prohibition, enacted in November 1966 during the tenure of then-Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, was lifted on the 9th of July 2024. The copy of this Department of Personnel and Training’s (DoPT) order was shared on social media by Congress leaders to express their anguish over the undoing of the historic injustice.

“Participation of the Government servants in the activities of RSS regarding. The undersigned is directed to refer to the OM No.3/10(S)/66-Estt. (B) dated 30.11.1966, OM No. 7/4/70-Est. (B) dated 25.07.1970 and OM No. 15014/3(S)/80- Estt. (B) dated 28.10.1980 on the above subject. 2. The aforesaid instructions have been reviewed and it has been decided to remove the mention of Rashtriya Swayam Sewak Sangh (R.S.S.S) from the impugned OMS dated 30.11.1966, 25.07.1970 and 28.10.1980. 3. This issues with the approval of Competent Authority,” the DoPT’s office memorandum dated 9th July read.

Several states, including Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh, have already removed similar restrictions on government employees associating with the RSS.

‘Mamata Banerjee Police unleashing sinister toolkit to undermine protests seeking justice for RG Kar Hospital victim ‘: BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari

On Saturday (24th August), the Leader of the Opposition and senior BJP leader, Suvendu Adhikari, accused West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee of unleashing a ‘sinister’ toolkit to undermine the ‘Nabanna Abhiyan’. Notably, a protest march called ‘Nabanna Abhiyan’ has been called for 27th August in which demonstrators will march towards the state secretariat building – Nabanna – to seek Justice for the RG Kar Hospital victim. 

The development comes a day after the Calcutta High Court refused to stop a march to the West Bengal state secretariat, ‘Nabanna’, on 27th August. Nabanna Abhiyan aims to demand Justice for the trainee female doctor who was raped and murdered at RG Kar Hospital on 9th August. The High Court held that the fundamental right to hold peaceful protest cannot be curbed.

On Saturday, BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari charged CM Mamata Banerjee with using a ‘sinister toolkit’ to stop protesters from marching towards Nabanna. He said that the Mamata Banerjee government has been badly rattled by the protests, especially the ‘Reclaim the Night’ campaign. He added that as the appeal of ‘Navanna Abhiyan’ by a non-political student community is gaining momentum, it has certainly raised Mamata Banerjee’s blood pressure.

Accusing Mamata Banerjee and the West Bengal Police of trying to suppress the protest marches, Adhikari said that the ‘Mamata Police’ has now resorted to the unethical way of spreading gossip and rumor-mongering through social media. 

The Leader of Opposition in the West Bengal Assembly, Adhikari added, “Fake Facebook profiles are being created through Civic Volunteers under police stations of every districts (sic). These fake Facebook profiles are being accumulated to spread false news about the ‘Nabanna Abhiyaan’ on August 27.”

Adhikari stressed that fake Facebook profiles are being created and URLs of toolkits are being sent to these profiles to spread fabricated posts to create confusion about ‘Navanna Abhijaan’ and demoralize the students.

The post further stated, “Along with this, URLs of Toolkits designed for this specific purpose are being sent to these fake Facebook profile handlers to spread the pre-created false posts to create confusion about ‘Navanna Abhijaan’ and demoralize the students.” 

While noting that the use of ‘toolkits’ is not unprecedented throughout the world, Adhikari emphasised, “This would be a first time, when a Govt would be trying to destabilize a spontaneous Public movement by spreading fake news through ‘toolkit’ and fake social media profiles.” 

He urged the students and civil society members to not get misled by fake news and to continue to demand justice for the deceased female trainee doctor. He has also listed some FB profiles which according to him, have been created by the local police for this purpose.  

Further in the long post, Adhikari stated, “I have attached the list of fake Facebook profiles created by the Police in Purba Medinipur District (as a sample) to expose the conspiracy. I have the list of each district, if required I will publish it later.” 

The BJP leader asserted that subordinate level Police officials are fed up with her anti-public activities and they also want Justice for the RG Kar Hospital victim as they also have daughters at their homes. 

He concluded by saying, “Mamata Banerjee, it’s time you realize that a large section of the subordinate level Police officials are no longer on your side. They are also fed up with your anti-public activities. They also have daughters at home, they also want justice.”

Mamata Banerjee government facing public ire over the handling of trainee doctor’s rape and murder case

The rape and murder case of the 31-year-old trainee female doctor in Kolkata’s RG Kar Hospital has sparked nationwide protests to seek justice for the deceased victim. Hospital administration, Police, and the West Bengal government led by Mamata Banerjee have been facing massive public ire over the initial handling of the case and the subsequent ‘transfer’ of the controversial Hospital principal, Sandip Ghosh. Both the Calcutta High Court and the Supreme Court made several scathing remarks about the developments in the case, particularly ones revolving around Sandip Ghosh. During the last hearing, the Supreme Court reacted firmly to the apprehensions and allegations that the state administration was suppressing protests demanding Justice for the trainee doctor. The apex court categorically asked the Mamata Banerjee government to “not unleash its power on peaceful protesters“.

The victim, identified as Maryam, is originally a resident of Uttar Pradesh’s Bahraich. She married Arshad, who lives with his family in Ayodhya, in December last year. Based on Maryam’s complaint, the Police filed a case against eight persons, including her husband Arshad, mother-in-law Raisha, father-in-law Islam, sister-in-law Kulsum, brother-in-law Faran and Shafaq, and sister-in-law Simran.

According to the complaint, she hails from a village. When she visited Ayodhya City, she was impressed by the development work and the beautification of Ayodhya Dham, especially ‘Ram Ki Paidi’, Kanak Bhawan, and the ghats of the Saryu River. 

However, after returning home, she shared her thoughts with Arshad and praised PM Modi and CM Yogi for the development works, which made her husband angry. Arshad threatened her with dire consequences at home. He even choked her throat with the intention to kill her.

According to reports, her husband also brutally assaulted her and the in-laws also joined him in the process. After the brutal assault, hot dal was poured on her face as she was lying on the floor in a semi-conscious condition. During the attack, the victim sustained serious burn injuries. It is said that the accused husband also hurled abuses and made derogatory remarks against CM Yogi and PM Modi.

According to the complainant, she was also kicked out of the house and asked to return to her parents’ house in Bahraich. 

In a video making rounds, Maryam said, “I am a resident of Mohalla Sarai, Thana Jarwal Road in Bahraich. On December 13, 2023, I was married to Arshad, son of Islam, a resident of Mohalla Delhi Darwaza in Kotwali Nagar, Ayodhya. My father got me married with the consent of both parties and by spending more than his means.” 

She added, “After the marriage when I went out in the city, I liked the roads of Ayodhya Dham, the beautification, the development, and the atmosphere there. On this, I praised Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in front of my husband.”

The victim’s family alleged that initially they went to the Bahraich and Ayodhya Police but they ignored her complaint. After this, Maryam’s father, Mohammad Sharif, complained on the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister’s portal and urged for the safety of her daughter and justice in this case. 

Jarwal Road Police Station Incharge Inspector (SHO) Brijraj Prasad said that the husband abused the Chief Minister, and the Prime Minister, and gave her divorce by pronouncing “talaq, talaq, talaq” (instant triple talaq).

The Police stated that the case was filed under the Assault, abuse, threat, and Dowry Prohibition Act and the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act.

MP: Schools and colleges directed to hold events to celebrate Krishna Janmashtami

Just a month after directing schools in Madhya Pradesh to organize special two-day events for Guru Purnima, the BJP government led by Mohan Yadav has issued similar instructions for schools and colleges on Krishna Janmashtami (August 26).

On Wednesday, the general administration department issued a six-point directive to all district collectors, requiring all schools and colleges, both government and private, to host lectures by scholars and cultural programs that highlight Lord Krishna’s teachings, as well as themes of friendship, life philosophy, and values.

The directive also stated that lectures and events focusing on India’s ancient traditions, such as Yoga, should be held in schools and colleges on August 26.

Additionally, the district collectors were instructed to ensure the cleaning of all Lord Krishna temples and the organization of cultural events at these temples during Janmashtami.

The order specifically mentioned the need for special cultural programs at religious sites believed to be associated with Lord Krishna’s life, including Janapava (Dewas), Amjhera (Dhar), Narayan, and Sandipani Ashram (Ujjain).

The Congress party opposed the directive, arguing that educational institutions are meant for learning. “Why is this government trying to ruin educational institutions? There are provisions for declaring holidays on religious occasions,” said Congress MLA from Bhopal-Central, Arif Masood.

In response, BJP MLA from Bhopal’s Huzur, Rameshwar Sharma, supported the decision, saying, “Our government has decided to celebrate Janmashtami across the state. It is a positive move by the government.”
