Govt making sincere attempts to draft laws in simple manner: PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Saturday that his government is making sincere attempts to draft laws in a simple manner and in Indian languages to the maximum extent.

"We in the Indian government are thinking that law should be produced in two ways. One draft will be in the language you are used to," he said to the audience drawn from the legal field. "The second draft will be in a language which the country's common man can understand. He should consider the law his own." Modi said there had been a practice of drafting laws in a complex manner.

Security challenges have evolved from 'dynamite to metaverse': Amit Shah

Warning the global community about security challenges which have evolved from "dynamite to metaverse" and "hawala to crypto currency", Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday urged G20 countries to rise above conventional boundaries to act against such crimes.

"The G20 has so far focused on digital transformation and data flow from an economic perspective, but now it is important to understand the aspects of crime and security, and find a solution," he said.

Shinde-led Maha govt incapable of maintaining law and order: Pawar

Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar on Saturday slammed the Eknath Shinde government, which completed one year in power on June 30, for its "incapability" to maintain law and order in Maharashtra. Shinde became chief minister on June 30 last year after a successful rebellion against Uddhav Thackeray split the Shiv Sena and brought down the Maha Vikas Aghadi government, of which Pawar's NCP was a part along with the Congress. Queried about the first anniversary of the Ekanth Shinde-Devendra Fadnavis government, Pawar said, "There is a serious question of law and order in the state. Attacks on women, gangs with koytas (sharp edged weapon) are serious issues. The state government is incapable of maintaining law and order." The opposition has been attacking the Shinde government over communal flare-ups in several places over posters of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb and 18th century Mysore rule Tipu Sultan, as well as crimes against women, including some in which the accused used ..

Some people taking law in their own hands, won't be spared: VP Dhankhar

Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Friday took a dim view of "some people" taking to the streets and indulging in violence and arson when found on the wrong side of the law. Speaking at an event at the Malaviya National Institute of Technology here, Dhankhar, however, did not mention any particular incident or name any state where violence was reported in recent times. "We cannot claim to be a society governed by law if someone is above the law, if someone has immunity from law, be it anyone, he said. Some people, if they get a legal notice, take to the streets. "No one is above the law and the law will not spare anyone. This is understood by all," he said, adding that "they" are now fighting the last battle. Without elaborating he asked why no action is taken when public property and police vehicles are burnt, and this is caught on video. "How can we allow such a scenario to develop?
