I have a question: if teachers face disciplinary action for hitting students in school, why is no action taken against the police officers in Delhi who beat students, or against those who issued such orders?

During the ongoing student protests in Delhi, the police have been indiscriminately using lathi-charges against the students. While a mild lathi-charge to disperse a crowd might be understandable in some contexts, the force used here appears to be an act of vendetta. The videos surfacing show not only protesting students but also bystanders being ruthlessly trampled upon. Such actions by the police could not possibly occur without specific orders from above.

What triggered the protest in the first place? It stemmed from the chaos surrounding the NEET exam, which adversely affected lakhs of students; out of anger, these students took to the streets, joined by others in solidarity. In short, the students initiated and sustained this movement. So, what was the justification for assaulting them? And who authorized the police to do so? Just as teachers are not permitted to hit students, neither are the police. Yet, why did this happen?

In the past, teachers frequently used to hit students (I, too, have often received such ‘punishment’), a practice that was eventually restricted because, no one has the right to inflict corporal punishment on students aside from the judiciary. Why shouldn't the same standard apply to the police? I have often said, and I say again today, that whether it is the Maharashtra police or any other force, officers often have no choice but to carry out the actions they are ordered to perform; therefore, they cannot be held solely responsible. But who gave the authority to the system that issues orders for such ruthless beatings? Do they consider themselves above the Constitution?

There are certain key United Nations principles, also adhered to by Amnesty International, dictating that whenever the use of force becomes necessary, the action taken must be constitutional, essential, and proportionate, and must entail accountability.

Today, in countries like Norway, Germany, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and New Zealand, any use of police force is subject to rigorous inquiry. An inquiry that focuses heavily on those who issued the orders. We need to see this happen here as well.

The question remains: who will ensure this happens? On one hand, the Chief Justice of the country dismissively refers to these young people as "cockroaches," while on the other, the Supreme Court itself states it has no time to view videos of the beatings. It is baffling. What do they have time for then? Young men and women are forced to take to the streets because they no longer have any expectations left from the current government. Civil society must reflect on this issue. It needs to be debated. Members of Parliament must insist on a discussion regarding this matter in the House.

The issue is not whether the State possesses the authority to use force against its citizens; almost every State holds that power. The real question is whether a constitutional democracy demonstrates the capacity to exercise restraint in the use of its authority. A democracy’s maturity is not measured by how harshly dissent is suppressed, but rather by how it handles dissenting voices, with restraint and due consideration for the consequences.

'Telegram Ban’ - मोदी सरकार का पेपर लीक रोकने का नया नुस्खा।

यानी चोर को पकड़ने के बजाय, पीड़ित के घर पर ताला लटका दो।

लाखों छात्र सालों से Telegram पर पढ़ते हैं - नोट्स, टेस्ट सीरीज़, डिस्कशन, तैयारी। वो सुविधा छीन लेना पेपर लीक का समाधान कैसे हुआ?

और यह फूलप्रूफ भी नहीं है - यह देश का हर छात्र जानता है, और पेपर लीक माफ़िया भी। फिर अगला ban किसपर लगाएंगे? WhatsApp?

परीक्षा के दिन छात्रों की तलाशी होगी। जेबें कैंची से काटी जाएँगी। प्रश्नपत्र वायुसेना से भेजे जाएँगे। दिखावे की कोई कमी नहीं होगी।

पर बीमारी की जड़ पर एक वार भी नहीं - क्योंकि पेपर लीक माफ़िया इसी सरकार की देख-रेख में फल-फूल रहा है, और युवाओं को खून के आँसू रुला रहा है।

मोदी जी - दिखावा छोड़िए। माफ़िया पर वार कीजिए, छात्र पर नहीं।

‘छात्रों की गूंज’ सुन लीजिए - वरना देश का युवा अपना हक़ लेना जानता है।

Here's a surprise. After a YouTuber’s video accusing a Muslim street vendor of “food jihad” went viral, several videos of locals coming out in his support are now circulating.
A fitting response to those who chase views by communalising, targeting and humiliating honest, poor people.

भारत की तेल ख़रीद पर अब अमेरिकी निगरानी क्यों होगी?

भारत किससे तेल खरीदेगा, किससे नहीं - यह हमारी ज़रूरतें तय करेंगी या अमेरिका की मर्ज़ी?

भारत को मुनाफे का व्यापार करने पर रोक लगाने की हिम्मत अमेरिका को किसने दी?

प्रधानमंत्री जी, भारत का हित और स्वाभिमान बेचते वक़्त ज़रा भी शर्म नहीं आई?

जो भी ट्रेड डील किसानों की रोज़ी-रोटी छीने या देश की खाद्य सुरक्षा को कमजोर करे, वह किसान-विरोधी है।

अन्नदाताओं के हितों से किसान-विरोधी मोदी सरकार को समझौता नहीं करने देंगे।

Union Minister @girirajsinghbjp shares 6 images of Nehru.
1st and 5th pics are AI generated.

The 2nd image is of Nehru with sister Vijaylakshmi Pandit ( The pic is when She welcomed her brother to the US in 1949)

The 3rd image is of Nehru’s sister Vijaylakshmi Pandit once again. This was when she was Ambassador of Russia.

4th image : Nehru is being given a kiss by his niece Nayantara Sehgal on his arrival at London airport in 1955. You can also see Sehgal’s mother, Vijaylakshmi Pandit who was the High Commissioner to UK at that time.

6th image : Prime Minister Nehru with Mrs. Simon, the wife of the British Deputy High Commissioner, on board the first BOAC flight in India.

Don't expect News Agencies, like ANI and Adani's agency @ians_india to correct him or call him out for sharing misinformation. They are happy to amplify the BJP Minister's false claim.

Here is a Fact Check we did in 2017 when BJP IT cell head @amitmalviya had shared similar disinformation back then.

@OpIndia_com Villagers and students came out in support of headmaster Jan Mohammad. The allegations made by BJP's Durgesh Pradhan were deemed false.
The allegation was he made children offer Namaz at the school.
The school children said that no prayers were offered.

Hello @uttarakhandcops, Why is @PauriPolice protecting outsider Bajrang Dal goons instead of the locals? Several videos clearly show them spreading fear and attacking residents. There are many incidents/videos of them terrorising local people.

There are many such incidents of Kashmiri Shwal sellers being targeted in Himachal Pradesh @SukhuSukhvinder, Will the CM ensure that these hate mongers get harshest punishment.

In BJP rule, thugs & rapists are celebrated & heroes who stand up for Constitutional values are punished!

Here, @PauriPolice is seen so helpless that they couldn't even stop the goons. Forget arresting them. The goons were trying to attack Deepak Kumar for standing by a Muslim shopkeeper when he was harassed by Bajrang Dal goons. #IStandWithMohammedDeepak

Orwell would be put to shame by what we are witnessing in BJP ruled states. And the collapse of India's constitutional courts to even provide the very basic check on the illegal actions of the executive.

More details: The Ministry of Railways has decided to permanently discontinue the 20-year-old tradition of awarding 'gold-plated silver medals' to retiring employees and officers. The decision was made after fake medals were found in the Bhopal division. An internal investigation revealed that the medals, which were supposed to contain silver, had only 0.23% silver and the rest was fake.

Dear @ICC,

It is with a heavy heart that we now announce our unavailability to replace Pakistan in the upcoming T20 World Cup. Regardless of whether they now withdraw, the short timescales ensure it is impossible for our squad to prepare in the professional manner necessary to compete effectively in this global cricketing spectacle. We are not like Scotland and able to turn up on a whim, with no kit sponsor.

Our players are from all walks of life and cannot simply drop their occupations to fly halfway around the world to experience temperatures only normally felt in Finnish saunas. Our captain, a professional baker, needs to attend to his oven, our ship captain needs to steer his vessel, and our bankers need to go bankrupt (again). This is the harsh reality of cricket at the amateur level of the game.

This news will be extremely disappointing to our fans. Despite being the most peaceful nation on Earth, we maintain an army of online followers, and are the world's 14th most followed national board on X. We were ready to give the Dutch the biggest shock they have experienced since William of Orange lost the Battle of Landen in 1693. And the Americans were looking forward to taking on Greenland, or so their orange-dyed leader thought.

Our loss is likely Uganda's gain. We wish them well. Their kits cannot be missed unless you have epilepsy, in which case they are probably best avoided.

The future is always ice, until it isn't.

Yours sincerely,

Icelandic Cricket Association
