SC to hear plea against Samay Raina for ridiculing disabled people

In what could spell fresh trouble for "India's Got Latent" host Samay Raina, the Supreme Court on Monday said it would examine a plea alleging he ridiculed the disabled, including a person with visual disability and those suffering from a rare disorder like Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). Calling it a serious issue, a bench of Justices Surya Kant and N Kotiswar Singh asked senior advocate Aprajita Singh, appearing for NGO Cure SMA Foundation of India to file a proper petition instead of an interim intervention plea in the pending matter of influencer and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia. "This is a serious issue. You file a writ petition. We will see what can be done. In writ jurisdiction we have larger scope," the bench told Singh. The bench also took note of the statements that the probe against Allahbadia was over and said it would on April 28 hear a plea for the return of his passport in a case over his distasteful remarks during Raina's show. On February 18, the top court protected

Govt move to end B'desh transshipment facility shows focus on NE: Himanta

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said the Centre's decision to withdraw the transshipment facility to Bangladesh for exports to various countries reflected Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government's priority to safeguard the security of the North East region. He also described the decision as a reflection of the government's commitment to protect the country's "strategic and economic priorities". India on Wednesday withdrew the transshipment facility extended to Bangladesh for exports to the Middle East, Europe and various other countries through its ports and airports. The move came against the backdrop of the recent controversial statement of the head of Bangladesh's interim government Muhammad Yunus in China that India's northeastern states are landlocked and his country was the only guardian of the Indian Ocean in the region. India's decision to revoke the transhipment facility for Bangladesh underscores Hon'ble Prime Minister @narendramodi's unwavering commitment to

Afspa lifted from Dibrugarh, only 3 Assam districts remain under it

The Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) has been withdrawn from Assam's Dibrugarh district, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Thursday. Addressing a press conference, Sarma said it is now in force in only three districts of the state. The law empowers security forces to conduct operations anywhere and arrest anyone without a prior warrant. It also gives a certain level of immunity to the security forces if an operation goes wrong. "We had requested Union Home Minister Amit Shah to lift the disturbed areas tag from Dibrugarh as we are planning to develop it as the second capital of the state," Sarma said. He heard our request and a notification has been issued by the Centre in this regard, he said. "AFSPA will now be in force in Tinsukia, Sivasagar and Charaideo districts," the CM said. "The AFSPA has been withdrawn from 32 districts of the state and we hope that it will be soon withdrawn from the remaining three districts as well," he added. The state was declared a
