Based on the information obtained, Mango Bhuiandih Homepipe resident Komal Kumari, 27, reserved a room on the third floor (302) of Guru Nanak Residency on Wednesday at 8:00 p.m.
Komal called an auto in the morning to go somewhere after spending the entire night by herself in the room. When the auto got close to the hotel, Komal was not receiving the call. The auto driver told the staff about this a little while later. When the staff went to Komal’s room and knocked on the door, after a long time no one responded from the other end the hotel’s staff called the nearest police station.
When the police arrived at the location after receiving the information, they entered and used the master key to open the door. Once inside, they discovered Komal hanging with her scarf.
Suicide Note found in the room
Also found in the room is a one-page suicide note. It states in the suicide note that she is the one who committed the suicide and her death has nothing to do with anyone. As the police searched the room, they noticed a call coming in on Komal’s cell phone.
A Bhaalubasa resident named Chandan Pathak answered the phone when that number was called. At once the police summoned him to the scene. When Chandan arrived at the location, he revealed that he had been living as a friend with Komal for a few months and that they had also exchanged some cash. In this instance, Komal had already lodged a complaint at the Sitaramdera police station against Chandan Pathak.

On February 16, the Sanyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM) and several trade unions called for a nationwide “Gramin Bharat Bandh,” to which a number of political parties and farmers’ organizations in Jharkhand pledged their support.
The CPI and the Jharkhand Rajya Kisan Sabha, a broad organization that addresses issues pertaining to farmers, supported the bandh. Public buses and mining vehicles, according to trade union leaders, will stay off the road. “The trade union leaders also decided that employees at all government offices, factories and other establishments will abstain from work and support the strike,” Ajay Singh, the leader of the CPI, stated as per the input from The BNN
According to JPCC President Rajesh Thakur, the party will back the bandh on Friday. “The leadership of our country has already expressed its support. He stated in Ranka, “Our workers will take to the streets throughout the state.
Congress leaders in Jharkhand also advocated for the legal guarantee in minimum support prices which are being demanded by the farmers. “Thousands of farmers across the country committed suicide for not getting fair prices for their yields. But this government is not worried about them,” the party said in a statement.
JMM leadership on Wednesday said that it would make public its stand on the matter on Thursday. However, its leaders said the party had offered its in-principle support to the farmers’ protests against the three agri laws a few years ago.
In connection with the broader conspiracy case pertaining to the Delhi riots, student activist and scholar at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), Umar Khalid, withdrew his bail request from the Supreme Court on Wednesday, February 14.
“Change in circumstances”
Citing a “change in circumstances,” he filed that “he will try his luck” in a lower court through his attorney Kapil Sibal.
“We would like to withdraw the bail matter. The court was cited by LiveLaw as saying, “There has been a change in circumstances; we will try our luck in the trial court,” by Khalid’s attorney Kapil Sibal.
Khalid’s petition was dismissed as withdrawn by the bench of Justices Bela Trivedi and Pankaj Mithal of the highest court. Khalid’s petition was dismissed as withdrawn by the bench of Justices Bela Trivedi and Pankaj Mithal of the highest court.
S.Q.R. Ilyas, Khalid’s father, mentioned the lengthy adjournments in the bail plea in an interview with The Wire, without going into detail about the “change in circumstances.”
Several hearing without conclusions for Umar Khalid
There have been multiple adjournments since May 2023. We were evaluating that the situation has changed and that this is a drawn-out process. Thus, we made the decision to remand the trial court in the hopes of receiving a prompt ruling. So now we’ll give it a shot there,” he said.
In September 2020, Khalid was taken into custody under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) in relation to a case involving the communal violence that broke out in North-East Delhi in February of that same year.

Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, stated that he thinks pressure is coming from Russia to stop the war in Ukraine. The billionaire businessman further stated that Putin “would be assassinated” if he withdrew from the bloody conflict.
Musk said this while speaking with US Republican senators on X Spaces; the senators were against a draft measure that would have given Ukraine more aid during the war.
The CEO of Tesla stated that “there’s no way hell” that the Russian President could lose the war he launched in Ukraine on February 24, 2022, even if he also opposed the further aid to Kyiv.
He asserted that extending the conflict and providing US support would not benefit Ukraine.
In addition, Musk called the claims that he was supporting Putin in the war “absurd” and stated that his businesses, including Starlink, “have probably done more to undermine Russia than anything.”
Musk turned down the Ukrainian government’s urgent request in September 2023 to turn on the SpaceX-owned satellite communications network Starlink in the event of an armed invasion because he believed it would spark a significant act of war and escalate the conflict.
The Ukrainian military has placed a great deal of reliance on Starlink since Russia’s full-scale invasion, citing it as a means of keeping front-line soldiers in communication with their superiors.
Since February 2022, the system has given Ukraine access to thousands of Starlink terminals.
Musk also voiced his scepticism on a potential Russian regime change at the X Spaces discussion, stating that the individual capable of unseating the Russian President would probably be “even more hardcore than Putin”.
New Delhi: Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge proposed a law guaranteeing the minimum support price (MSP) for various crops as protesting farmers marched towards the nation’s capital on Tuesday. He referred to this as his party’s “first guarantee” ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
One of the main demands of the farmers demonstrating is a legal guarantee of MSP. Farmers from all around the nation began travelling to the nation’s capital as part of their “Delhi Chalo” march after negotiations between them and the government broke down.
The Congress Party declares that, through mass purchases, we will provide our farmers with a legal guarantee of MSP. We guarantee acquiring various crops at MSP. We will provide it as a legal guarantee as soon as our government takes office. “This is our first guarantee,” Kharge declared while speaking at a rally in Ambikapur, Chhattisgarh.
Kharge accompanied Congressman Rahul Gandhi, who is presently travelling through Chhattisgarh as part of his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra from Manipur to Maharashtra.
“BJP government gave Bharat Ratna to (M.S.) Swaminathanji, but they are not ready to do what Swaminathan ji said,” Rahul Gandhi said in reference to the news. In his study, Swaminathan ji made it quite evident that farmers ought to have legal rights to MSP. It is not being done by the BJP government.
“The government of INDIA (alliance) will take power,” he continued. After that, we will provide farmers with MSP guarantees. We shall carry out the recommendations made in the Swaminathan report.
Rahul declared that the manifesto for the next Lok Sabha elections will include a number of additional announcements specifically for farmers.
Numerous police officers could be seen getting ready to block the protest from reaching the capital on Delhi’s boundaries.
Authorities in Delhi have placed cement and nails on top of it in an attempt to stop farmers. Is democracy being practiced here? If I defend my rights against the prime minister, will you put nails in my path, build fences, and use a lathicharger? This is what kind of democracy? Kharge stated, “He (Modi) does not want the farmers to do well.
Party general secretary Randeep Singh Surjewala also criticised the Modi government earlier in the day when he spoke at a press conference regarding the limitations placed on farmers’ protests.
“As if an enemy has attacked the power in Delhi, the BJP central government and the BJP governments of Haryana, Rajasthan, and Uttar Pradesh have transformed the nation’s capital, Delhi, into a ‘police cantonment,’” Surjewala said.
Congress lawmaker Priyanka Gandhi also posted on X following Kharge’s declaration, saying that farmers have a right to a fair price for their products. Instead of violence, tear gas, sticks and bullets, they should be paid a decent wage. The congressional party supports the farmers’ justifiable demands.
NEW DELHI: Arvind Kejriwal’s AAP essentially closed the door on the Congress party as it continued to postpone seat-sharing talks on Tuesday by announcing that it would run candidates in six Lok Sabha seats in Delhi and offer only one to the latter. Additionally, AAP unveiled LS candidates for one Goa constituency and two Gujarati constituencies.
The unexpected declaration hinted at growing problems for India and followed a string of shocks to the opposition in UP and Bihar.
While AAP maintained that it is committed to defeating BJP and that it will remain a part of the opposition alliance, the statement came after a snub to Congress, where general secretary Sandeep Pathak used data from Congress’s previous electoral performances to highlight that the party’s attempts to play ‘Big Brother’, despite its dismal performance, were unlikely to be taken seriously.
If seat-sharing negotiations fall through, AAP will announce more poll candidates.
The AAP’s choice in Delhi differs significantly from the alleged 4-3 agreement, according to Pathak, who stated that the Congress party was only able to get nine out of 250 municipal corporation seats and was unable to win a single Lok Sabha or assembly seat in Delhi. The announcement, which seemed to leave little room for reconciliation, came after the party threatened to unveil more candidates if the seat-sharing negotiations were not formalised within the next two days.
Pathak stated last month, citing “failed attempts to hold discussions” with Congress, “I am sitting here with a heavy heart.” If we had spoken, there would have been no need to take this action.” AAP has declared its intention to field Dediapada MLA Chaitar Vasava as its nominee, rejecting the Congress’s request to give up Bharuch in Gujarat, which is connected to the late Congress leader Ahmed Patel, whose daughter is now eager to run. Umesh Bhai Makwana, the Botad MLA from Bhavnagar, confirmed his candidature on behalf of the party.
India Alliance suffers a double blow Following Mamata’s TMC, AAP declares a Punjab solo bout
“Congress won this seat (Bharuch) forty years ago. You have to break free from “parivarvaad” (nepotism) and concentrate on who can fight the BJP and win which seats if you want to beat the BJP, according to Pathak.
The AAP chose to field Benaulim MLA Venzy Viegas from South Goa, another state where the BJP may gain from a multi-polar struggle with friends from India.
In Maharashtra, where the alliance has been weakened by the departure of party veterans like Ashok Chavan in addition to vertical fractures in the Shiv Sena and NCP, the biggest test for India is yet to come. Ahead of the Lok Sabha elections, Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh would also be reluctant to give the Congress the seats it had reserved for RLD, creating an unclear future.
Muslim organisations in Rajasthan have expressed disapproval of the widespread Surya Namaskar programme that is set to take place on February 15, which is also Surya Saptami, in both government and non-government schools. The Muslim community has been asked by Jamiat-Ulema-Hind to maintain their faith and beliefs, and they have been advised not to give in to external pressure. The organisation highlights the Indian Constitution’s guarantee of the right to education while upholding one’s religious beliefs.
The mandate of the Education Department to introduce the Surya Namaskar programme in educational institutions has been challenged in a petition filed by the Rajasthan Muslim Forum. On February 14, the Rajasthan High Court scheduled time for a hearing on the case. Furthermore, memoranda contested the constitutionality of the Education Department’s Surya Namaskar directives have been submitted by district units of the Rajasthan Muslim Forum through District Collectors.
Surya Namaskar was made mandatory in 2015 as well, got challenged
In 2015, the BJP government led by Vasundhara Raje mandated that yoga and Surya Namaskar be practised in all educational institutions. Muslim organisations then petitioned the court, claiming that the directives violated the Constitution’s protection of religious freedom and amounted to unjustified interference in matters of faith. Later, on June 29, 2015, the Rajasthan Education Department changed its order in response to court intervention, giving students the freedom to choose whether or not to perform Surya Namaskar and yoga.
Criticism and speculations of election-related agenda
The timing of these directives has drawn criticism, especially in the run-up to elections. The Indian Constitution’s principle of secularism must be upheld by the government, according to Abdul Wahid Khatri, state general secretary of Jamiat-Ulema-Hind-Rajasthan. He criticised attempts by certain ideological groups to use unlawful means to force their religious views on others, without specifically mentioning the BJP. Khatri asserted that these directives are opposite to democratic principles, politically motivated, and intended to placate particular demographics before elections.
Khatri went on to stress the need for legal action in cases where governments disobey their constitutional obligations. He recalled the legal struggle in 2015 against the Vasundhara Raje government’s similar unconstitutional acts, pointing out the Supreme Court’s and several High Courts’ interventions in defending religious freedoms. He also said, “When the government deliberately does wrong, we have no option other than the court. On Monday, February 12th, our hearing could not be held. The court fixed the date of hearing on14th. Who knows, the hearing may not take place tomorrow also. Therefore, we have appealed to all the Muslim parents to boycott the Surya Namaskar program on February 15 by not sending their children to school.”
The state executive meeting of Jamiat Ulema-Hind, a traditional Indian Muslim organisation, has approved an initiative denouncing the government’s directive for a communal Surya Namaskar in government schools. According to Jamiat, the government’s orders amount to open interference in religious affairs and obvious mockery of the constitutionally guaranteed freedom of religion, as well as rulings from the nation’s Supreme Court and numerous High Courts.
Following a discussion at the state-level Jamiat Ulema-Hind meeting, it was stated that Surya is regarded as a god or deity in most Hindu societies. The verses recited during this practice, along with exercises like Ashtanga Namaskar and Pranamasana, are acts of worship, and Islam forbids the worship of gods other than Allah. The Muslim community is unable to accept this in any manner or situation.
Memorandum submitted to the Governor
The community has sent a memorandum to the District Collector in the name of the Governor, highlighting the secular nature of our nation, under the direction of Engineer Khurshid Hussain, convenor of the Muslim Forum Sikar. They emphasised that initiatives regarding to the prayers of any specific religion are forbidden by the Constitution for governments to take on.
In spite of this, orders requiring the implementation of Surya Namaskar in all educational institutions were issued by the Rajasthan School Education Council on January 30, 2024, and the Office of the Director of Education Department on February 1st and 2nd, 2024. The community demanded an immediate prohibition on such orders because they believed this action went against the spirit and provisions of the Indian Constitution. Officials from a number of Muslim organisations, including Mustafa Khan, Ahsan Ali Gaur, Usman Ghani, Salimuddin Kachhav, Amiruddin Tagala, and Mohammad Arif, supported the memorandum.
The Rajasthan Muslim Youth Forum has filed a petition in the High Court, according to Nazimuddin, the State President of Jamaat-e-Islami Hind. He claimed that the government’s directive violates the principles of the constitution and is an attack on the right to freedom of religion. As the Constitution states, no religion may be forced to accept the worship traditions of another. Nazimuddin focused on this point. Moreover, he highlighted that this directive runs counter to Islamic beliefs since Muslims are required to worship only Allah. Jamaat-e-Islami Hind is strongly against this arbitrary directive from the Department of Education.

Today on 13 Feb 2024, residents of Jamshedpur faced a never ending traffic Jam situation in Mango roundabout. Sources claimed that the traffic congestion was not only present in the Mango roundabout region but also extended to Azad Nagar road, Purulia road and Dimna Road.
Due to frequent traffic jams, the people of Jamshedpur are facing trouble almost on a daily basis. We have mentioned about the traffic situation in past. But still now no action is taken from the administration.
According to Wasim Akram, a local resident of Jamshedpur “Traffic situation in Jamshedpur is worsening on daily basis. It is hard to travel to Sakchi in the peak hours. But today it took me more than 1 hour to travel from Road No 1, Azad Nagar to Mango Roundabout which is barely 600 meters of distance.”
Demand of long-awaited Flyover Project
Former health minister, Banna Gupta who is an MLA from Jamshedpur West promised the local residents of Jamshedpur for a construction of flyover project connecting the two sides of river. Dec 2022, The Avenue Mail reported a statement of Banna Gupta stating the flyover construction will start within 4 months from now. And yet the residents of Jamshedpur have not seen any such construction.
When Banna Gupta showed the dream of flyover to the residents of Jamshedpur, Saryu Roy, MLA from Jamshedpur East also tweeted against the MLA. He mentioned that without the No objection certificate (NOC) from TATA Steel the foundation stone cannot be laid for flyover project
