8 basic rights every citizen has under the Constitution of India and its laws:

1. You must be told why you're being arrested. In a language you understand. Immediately upon arrest. You should also insist on grounds of arrest in writing.

2. You have the right to have a friend, relative, or anyone you name informed of your arrest and where you're being held. So that they can assist you - get you legal help.

3. You're entitled to meet an advocate of your choice during investigation. If you can't afford one, free legal aid is available through the Legal Services Authority at the level of the police station itself (and not just Court).

4. If the offence is Bailable, the police must tell you that you're entitled to be released on bail (from the police station itself) and can arrange surety (which can be a friend/relative).

5. You must be produced before a court/magistrate within 24 hours of your arrest.

6. You can't be forced to speak against yourself. (Article 20 of the Constitution).

7. You have the right to a medical examination, especially if you want to document injuries or disprove an allegation. This exists precisely so that any custodial violence has a paper trail.

8. The arresting officer must be identifiable - visible name tag, and (per the D.K. Basu guidelines now codified) a memo of arrest, witnessed and countersigned, noting the time and date.

Youth protesters are peacefully using their democratic right to speak up. The government should take their concerns seriously, remove the concerned minister, and talk with the students to find a peaceful solution.

"All citizens are being made slaves of Indian Government. They cannot stage protests, they cannot agitate-What is all this? Now so many papers have been leaked. If people protest, you will slap cases... What is this? It is the right of the citizens to protest.

The petitioner has just raised slogans like 'BJP Government Murdabad', 'Amit Shah Murdabad'... Why citizens can't raise such slogans? Why externment orders for such slogans?" - Bombay High Court Judge Justice Madhav Jamdar asks.

This conduct is highly disgraceful and completely unacceptable from a public servant. The Government should take immediate and stringent action against such individuals to ensure accountability and uphold public trust in public administration. @UPGovt @ghaziabadpolice @dgpup

Booked 3 train tickets for ₹5.6K nearly 2 months in advance (WL 8, 9 & 10), yet none got confirmed. Meanwhile, agents are selling tickets on the same route for ₹5K–₹6K per ticket. Requesting @RailMinIndia to tackle ticket touting and misuse of the booking system.@IRCTCofficial

@barandbench It is deeply distressing to see that, in this country once regarded as an example of communal harmony and brotherhood, even festival holidays are now being granted on the basis of religion.

One of the very senior journalists @DigitalMusanna is currently undergoing treatment at Sahar hospital Lucknow. He needs to be shifted to KGMU (if someone can help). For liver transplant he needs 15 lakh within 3-4 days which is a huge sum for any news journalist. Do your part.

चुनावी मुद्दा तो ये होना चाहिए!!
ख़बर के मुताबिक़ अगर आपके पास हेल्थ इंश्योरेंस नहीं है तो हॉस्पिटल वाले आपसे अधिक पैसा चार्ज करते हैं!
जानते हैं क्यों? आपको बाध्य किया जा रहा है कि आप हेल्थ इंश्योरेंस खरीदें। क्योंकि प्राइवेट हॉस्पिटल और इंश्योरेंस कंपनियां मिलकर मरीजों को लुटती हैं!
सरकार चुप है!
जानते हैं क्यों? क्योंकि प्राइवेट हॉस्पिटल्स और इंश्योरेंस कंपनियों से सरकार को चंदा मिलता है!

As Israel, supported by the US and Europe, continues to block water, food, and fuel from entering Gaza, over 2 million citizens are denied the very basic necessities to survive.

This child has been filmed drinking dirty water from the street in northern Gaza.

On what basis @ABPNews is using the term ‘poisonous’ for Mufti Salman Azhari. Did the court convict him for the said allegation made against him?

Such low-level journalism.
