Dear all,
Welcome.

 

Coal gate Scam: The hearing of Supreme Court had resulted in resignation of Additional Solicitor General thereby raising disputes amidst ASG & Attorney General. Earlier, ASG had stated that the govt. had not shared its(CBI) status report on Coal block allocation. The autonomy of CBI is under question. The Supreme Court had stated that CBI should not take any directions from any minister. It had broken its faith and the investigation is questionable. The Supreme Court had summoned CBI director to file an affidavit on Coal block allocation status report. It has to be submitted by May 06. Now, CBI's autonomy would be under trial. It has to be independent and impartial. It should not be working under external pressure.
CBI's counsel had stated that it would flie an affidavit on May 06. Earlier, Attorney General had told that neither he had seen the status report nor its draft report.

 

Corruption: The Rail Minister, Bansal's nephew, is found of taking bribe worth 90 lakh INR from Railway Board member. CBI had arrested him and registered a case against the member and two others. These are from Chandigarh. As per sources, his nephew had been given bribe of 90 lakh INR by Board member. He was GM(Western Railway). He had been promoted three days before only. CBI is interrogating his nephew & GM(Railways). It is supposed that a big racket is involved in it.
The govt. had stated that by March 31, 2013 there were 6816 matters pending under Prevention of Corruption Act. The CBI had during 2010, 2011, 2012 & by March'13, registered around 2121 matters. These are Andaman/Nicobar Island (29), Andhra Pradesh(409),Goa(46), Gujarat(417), Haryana(49), HP(16), J&K(141), Jharkhand(432), Karnataka(176) , Arunachal Pradesh(09), Assam(187), Bihar (310), Chandigarh(42), Chattisgarh(49), Daman/Diu(06),etc. Likewise, Kerala(189), MP(211), Maharashtra(709), Manipur(13), Meghalaya(08), Mizoram(08), Nagaland(05), NCR(933), Odisha(235), Pondicherry(26), Punjab(63), Rajasthan(294), Sikkim(02), TamilNadu(497), UP(599), Uttarakhand(61), & West Bengal(645).

Delhi's Gangrape: The Supreme Court had rejected the victim's friend's interview given to a private newschannel as witness in the case. It had ruled out the High Court's order in this regard. It is to note that a para medical student was gangraped in a luxury private bus on Dec. 16, 2012 night bound for Dhaulakuan. The accused had beaten, raped and later put iron bar in the body. Both were then thrown nude from the bus. The girl was later sent to Singapore for treatment where she died at Mt. Elizabeth hospital.

 

Prisoner clash[1]: After Kotlakhpat prison incident wherein Indian prisoner, Sarabjit, was beaten by fellow inmates, the agitated prisoners of J&K's KotBhalwal prison had beated a Pakistani prisoner. He is in Coma. It is to note that J7K prison houses around 80 such Pak prisoners, which are captured following their involvement in terrorist activities.The jail administration had already been alert in this regard.
[2] The two factions of prisoners at Tihar jail had clashed using items like plates and bricks etc resulting in nine of them getting wounded. One amongst them had died. The clash took place for establishing supremacy over their area. The Police had registered cases against both groups under various acts. The security had been increased of Pakistani prisoners.
[3] Telecon. minister had stated that only because of Sarabjit case, Indo-Pak peace talks could not be stopped. As per the minister, Mumbai blast accused & guilty, Kasab, was provided security while at the prison. Presently, Sarabjit case had dismayed govt. and public. It would have some effect on the peace talks. His statement is seen as retaliation to BJP's demand of lessening of diplomatic relations with Pakistan.

 

VVIP Security: The Supreme Court had questioned about the Z plus security provided to VVIP personnel. It had asked that if common public is insecure, why riches are been provided with Special security? Also, it was stated that if there had been security in the country, then there would not have been rape with five year old girl. However, Court had accepted the fact that VVIPs could have private security but when they leave their State, they would have to leave the security there itself.
Police: The Supreme Court had stated that the Police behaviour had been like animals in entire country. During the demonstration against minor's rape and slapping of girl had resulted in asking of affidavit from Delhi's Police Commissioner. After the dispute came into light, ACP was suspended.
Likewise, Aligarh City's Police area had one six year girl being raped and murdered and Police had done lathi charge on demonstrators.

Foreign Policy: Bihar CM & JD(U) member had indirectly held the Foreign Policy to responsible for the death of Indian Prisoner captivated at Pak. The entire cycle of events is responsible. Had he been brought to India timely, he could have been saved.
Chinese troops had planned earlier for entering into No man's land along with UAV and other monitoring equipments. Chinese Army had moved ahead its troops in Daulat Beg Oldie sector along with three other areas. But due to increased pressure it had taken back its steps. After diplomatic contacts, twin formula strategy is supposed to have been adopted for finding a solution. Prior to the foreign minister's Beijing visit, it is assumed to have gone back. The UAV pictures show the same. Also, at Ladakh belt an opinion shared was that it should retreat back.
