Excl: Ground reality vs official records: Census fieldwork is throwing up data that differ from govt records on open defecation free villages, use of cow dung cakes/kerosene/crop residue for cooking in urban areas despite LPG connection, no electricity. Enumerators asked to revisit and review the “data discrepancies”.I ✍️

An enumerator from Rajasthan told The Hindu on condition of anonymity, “In the mobile app, if we enter that a household has a tin roof, we are asked by our superiors to change it to concrete. Are we supposed to lie? Similarly, if the house does not have a toilet and occupants are defecating in the open, we are told to check if there is a toilet nearby, even that of a neighbour or a relative, which they may be using occasionally or even a public urinal. Then the entry can be changed from ‘open defecation’ to having access to a toilet.”

At least 716 abortions were recorded among girls below the age of 19 in Mumbai between April 2024 and March 2025, according to information obtained under the Right to Information (RTI) Act.

The data further shows that the city recorded a total of 20,950 Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) procedures during the year, with failure or inadequate use of contraception emerging as the most commonly cited reason.

The information was provided by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation’s (BMC) Family Welfare Unit in response to an RTI application filed by activist Chetan Kothari seeking details on abortions, maternal deaths, and abortion-related deaths in the city.

According to the RTI data, women in the 25-29 age group accounted for the highest number of abortions, with 7,296 cases recorded during 2024-25.

This was followed by women aged 30-34 years, among whom 5,673 abortions were reported.

The reputation of General NS Raja Subramani (60) in the Army as a “scholar general” is one of the qualities that convinced Lucknow-based retired Colonel Salim Durrani (59) that he was destined to occupy the country’s highest military post.

In his 1st term, Yogi had 23 OBC/27 UC/9 SC ministers.

His 2nd govt has 26 OBC/22 UC/11 SC ministers.

Out of 26 OBC, only 1 is Yadav. Brahmins & Thakurs are 1st & 2nd largest groups.
