Relations seem to be deteriorating further between allies Bharatiya Janata Party and Janata Dal (United). Bihar Chief Minister's party said that it would not be a part of the Union Cabinet led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The JD(U) and BJP share power in Bihar.
On 7 August, JD(U)'s national president Rajiv Ranjan Singh alias Lalan, reportedly said, "We had decided in 2019, after the Lok Sabha polls, not to join the government at the Centre. We stick to that stand even now."
On the same day, Bihar CM Nitish Kumar skipped the NITI Aayog meeting chaired by PM Modi in Delhi. Nitish cited post-Covid issues, according to sources quoted in news reports. However, the Bihar CM reportedly attended an event in Patna on the occasion of National Handloom Day.
Meanwhile, JD(U)'s president fired salvos at RCP Singh, who resigned from the party on 6 August after being denied a Rajya Sabha ticket due to which he lost his Union Cabinet berth. Rajiv Ranjan Singh said that for a long time, RCP Singh was physically in JD(U) but his soul had been elsewhere.
A day earlier, RCP Singh called the JD(U) a sinking ship, and said that Nitish Kumar would not become Prime Minister even in seven lives.

Amid a relay hunger strike by some students at IIT Bombay, the premier engineering institute defended its decision to increase fees.
A day after the hunger strike began, the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay said that adjustment of charges was needed to "stay alive and grow". Authorities clarified that only 8% of funding comes from student fees, and operational expenses will still be more than hiked fees.
The institute reportedly said, "The majority of our students realise that the government cannot keep subsidising them beyond a point. IIT Bombay is trying to convince the remaining few students to stop the stir by talking with them."
The fee hike was approved in 2020, but implementation was delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, according to news reports.
Students began their protest after a 35% hike in postgraduate programmes was proposed in July 2022. Increased hostel fees, and tuition fees for PhD and MTech students are reportedly major points of contention. Protesting students have demanded a rollback of the hike.

Bihar to hire shooters to cull nilgai, wild boar after crop damage complaints by farmers

After receiving multiple complaints by farmers over large-scale destruction of crops by herds of nilgai or blue bull, locally known as ‘Ghodparas’ and wild boar in certain districts of Bihar, the state government has decided to hire professional shooters possessing licensed guns to kill the two species outside protected forest area.


Bihar had officially declared nilgai as &lsquo;vermin&rsquo; in 2015 after its plea was accepted by the Centre following a series of complaints from various districts of the state about these wild animals ravaging farmlands.

After receiving multiple complaints by farmers over large-scale destruction of crops by herds of nilgai or blue bull, locally known as &lsquo;Ghodparas&rsquo; and wild boar in certain districts of Bihar, the state government has decided to hire professional shooters possessing licensed guns to kill the two species outside protected forest area.
Erosion of forest cover due to rapid urbanisation has pushed these animals to shift from natural forest cover to farmland bringing them into direct conflict with humans.
Arvind Kumar Chaudhary, the principal secretary of environment, forest and climate change department, said village 'mukhiyas' (heads) have been given the authority to assess the complaints of crop damage filed by farmers, and accordingly take a call if a state-appointed shooter should be told to cull the wild animals as and when it strays into the fields in search of food.
&ldquo;Blue bull and wild boar have been destroying agricultural crops extensively in the districts of Muzaffarpur, Vaishali, Sitamarhi, Bhojpur and Sheohar. Keeping the provisions of the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972 in mind, the forest department has appointed mukhiyas as the nodal authority to identify and allow the killing of these two species outside the protected area by state-appointed shooters," he said.
&ldquo;The job will have to be undertaken in coordination with the officials of the forest department,&rdquo; Chaudhary told PTI.
He also said that a high-level committee has been constituted to select professional shooters possessing licensed guns.
The committee has so far received applications from 14 shooters and the process of hiring them will be completed by the end of this month, Chaudhary stated.

Explaining further, he said, &ldquo;Procedures laid down for the operation have to be strictly followed. Mukhiyas will play a very crucial role in the entire exercise &ndash; from giving the go-ahead to making arrangements for burial. The government will bear the cost of cartridges and burial.&rdquo; Bihar Panchayati Raj Minister Samrat Choudhary, when approached, said extreme caution has to be maintained while carrying out the operation.
&ldquo;There is no doubt that these two animals are causing huge damage to crops in certain districts of the state. But mukhiyas will have to act very cautiously. A mukhiya should issue hunting permits to shooters only after proper verification of farmers' complaints. The village heads will have to submit a monthly report to the competent authority,&rdquo; he told PTI.
According to officials, farmers in some parts of Bihar had long been complaining of crop losses with these two species often straying into their fields, especially during this time of the year.
Meanwhile, Alokparna Sengupta, the managing director of the India wing of Humane Society International, said culling of animals cannot be the solution to this problem.
&ldquo;Such measures have been taken by other state governments, too, in the past. That never led to any permanent solution. The problem still persists there. Killing of innocent animals must be condemned,&rdquo; she added.&nbsp;
It may be noted that nilgai was officially declared by the Bihar government as &lsquo;vermin&rsquo; in 2015 after its plea was accepted by the central government after a series of complaints from various districts of the state about these wild animals ravaging farmlands.

Mobile data services have been suspended for five days across Manipur, an order issued by Special Secretary (Home) H Gyan Prakash said on Saturday.
According to the order, some anti-social elements are using social media to transmit hate speeches inciting the passions of the public.
The decision came following a report by the Superintendent of Police of Bishnupur district that a vehicle was set ablaze by 3-4 men at Phougakchao Ikhang on Saturday evening.
The crime has created communal tension, the order said.
The District Magistrate of Bishnupur has also imposed prohibitory orders under Section 144 of the CrPC for a period of two months across the valley district beginning Saturday evening.
Tension has been brewing in the state after All Tribal Student Union Manipur (ATSUM) imposed an indefinite economic blockade along the national highways of the landlocked state on Friday morning.
The student body had been demanding that the Manipur (Hill Areas) Autonomous District Council Bill 2021 be tabled in the Assembly.
The imposition of the indefinite economic blockade prompted a valley-based organisation Meitei Leepun to lock the Imphal office of ATSUM on Friday afternoon.
Meitei Leepun claimed that the blockade targets the valley area of the state.
The ATSUM was demanding the tabling of the Manipur (Hill Areas) Autonomous District Council (Amendment) Bill 2021 in the Monsoon session of the assembly for greater financial and administrative autonomy of the hill region to ensure development at par with the valley areas of the state.
Instead, the N Biren Singh-led BJP government of the state introduced the Manipur (hill areas) district council 6th and 7th amendment bills on Tuesday, which the protesters claimed was not in line with their demands.
ATSUM was observing a total shutdown in the tribal-dominated hill of Kangpokpi and Senapati since Tuesday after the amendment bills were introduced unannounced.

Amid a political controversy over weekly holidays in some Jharkhand schools, a BJP Member of Parliament claimed that the state was moving towards "Islamisation".
Nishikant Dubey said he was quoting from a state government reply in the Jharkhand Assembly. "Our MLA Anant Ojha asked a question in the state Assembly. I tweeted the reply given by the state government. They admitted that over 500 government schools have Urdu in the name. Over 500 schools have Urdu prayers. Over 500 schools where hands are not folded for prayers. They have weekly holidays on Fridays instead of Sundays. The state is moving towards Islamisation," he said.
Dubey said that he would raise the issue in the Parliament if it is allowed to function. He also called for an investigation by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) into a "conspiracy to break the nation".
The BJP MP added, "Government of India should impose President's Rule in Jharkhand. If the entire state is moving towards Islamisation, Bangladesh refugees are being given shelter, ISI activities are increasing. What other options are there? If country doesn't survive, then nothing will survive. This is a big conspiracy to break the nation. Congress and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha are involved in this. Congress has broken the nation once, but wants to do it again."
Jharkhand officials have said that unilateral action by schools without government approval is being probed.
