Punjab CM hits out at Akal Takht Jathedar for 'provoking' people | Amritpal crackdown

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann Tuesday hit out at Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh for "provoking" people through an ultimatum to the AAP government

Mann accused the Jathedar of favouring the Badals and also told him that the Badals had "used" several Jathedars for their "vested interests".

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann Tuesday hit out at Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh for "provoking" people through an ultimatum to the AAP government to release all Sikh youths arrested in a police action against radical preacher Amritpal Singh and his aides.
Mann accused the Jathedar of favouring the Badals and also told him that the Badals had "used" several Jathedars for their "vested interests".
The CM told the Jathedar of Akal Takht, the highest temporal seat of Sikhs, that it would have been better had he issued the ultimatum in the sacrilege and missing 'saroops' of Guru Granth Sahib.
Mann's reaction came a day after the Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Harpeet Singh had given a 24-hour ultimatum to the AAP government to release all Sikh youths who were held during the police crackdown against radical preacher Amritpal Singh and his aides.
The Jathedar also condemned the state government for invoking the National Security Act against a few people during the police crackdown.
The Jathedar of Akal Takht in Amritsar had convened a special gathering of Sikh organizations, including intellectuals, Sikh lawyers, journalists, religious and social leaders to discuss the current situation in Punjab following the March 18 action against elements of 'Waris Punjab De' headed by Amritpal Singh.
Lambasting the Jathedar over his ultimatum, Mann in a tweet in Punjabi said, "Jathedar Sri Akal Takht Sahib ji. Everyone knows you and SGPC have been favouring the Badals.
Look at the history, many Jathedars were used by the Badals for their own interests. It would have been better had you given the ultimatum for the sacrilege and missing 'saroops' of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji instead of provoking happily living people." The incidents related to the theft of a 'bir' (copy) of the Guru Granth Sahib, putting up handwritten sacrilegious posters, and torn pages of the holy book being found scattered at Bargari had taken place in Faridkot in 2015.
In another case, 328 'saroops' (copies) of Guru Granth Sahib had gone missing from the records of the publication house of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee.&nbsp;

PM Modi inaugurates party HQ extension, says BJP only pan-India party

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said the BJP has emerged as the only pan-India party amidst family-run political outfits in the country 

The BJP has emerged as not only the world's biggest but also the most futuristic party, he said.&nbsp;

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said the BJP has emerged as the only pan-India party amidst family-run political outfits in the country as it worked on the ground with people braving all odds, instead of finding faults with its rivals and playing the blame game.
Addressing an event after inaugurating an extension of the BJP headquarters here, he attributed the BJP's rise from a small political outfit to the world's biggest one to the dedication and sacrifices made by party workers.
"BJP started its journey from just two Lok Sabha seats and reached 303 in 2019. In many of the states, we get more than 50 per cent votes," he said.
"From north to south and from east to west, the BJP is the only pan-India party today," he added.
The BJP has emerged as not only the world's biggest but also the most futuristic party, he said, adding that its only goal is to make a modern and developed India.&nbsp;

Congress mulls no-confidence motion against Lok Sabha speaker: reports

The Congress is in talks with other opposition parties to consider moving a no-confidence motion against Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla over his alleged bias, according to media reports. 

The motion is likely to be brought on Monday in the Lok Sabha but some parties are opposed to the move

The Congress is in talks with other opposition parties to consider moving a no-confidence motion against Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla over his alleged bias, sources said on Tuesday.
They said the proposal to bring a motion was mooted at the meeting of party MPs this morning and Congress leaders are now talking to other party leaders over it.
The motion is likely to be brought on Monday in the Lok Sabha but some parties are opposed to the move, saying it may hurt the momentum of opposition unity.
The no-confidence motion will highlight the pace at which Rahul Gandhi was disqualified as MP.
The sources said the no-confidence motion can only be brought when the house is in order.
Sources in the opposition camp said such a motion requires signatures and support of 50 MPs but they apprehended that the motion may not be allowed to be moved on the ground that the house is not in order.
The Lok Sabha has been witnessing uproarious scenes since the start of the second leg of the budget session on March 13 with opposition benches demanding a Joint Parliamentary Committee probe into the Adani issue and the BJP seeking Rahul Gandhi's apology over his remarks made abroad which they allege was an insult to India and its institutions on foreign soil.
Sources said a no-confidence motion was brought in August 1963 against the Nehru government by Acharya Kripalani.
No-confidence motions have been brought against the Narasimha Rao government and the Atal Bihari Vajpayee government as well, they said.&nbsp;

ChatGPT: Punjab High Court's unlikely aid in a bail hearing&nbsp;

ChatGPT: Punjab High Court's unlikely assistant in a bail hearing 

 In what could probably be a first-of-its-kind instance in an Indian court, the Punjab and Haryana High Court took help of ChatGPT to assess the worldwide view on bail in a case of assault "laced with cruelty".

ChatGPT: Punjab High Court's unlikely aid in a bail hearing&nbsp;

In what could probably be a first-of-its-kind instance in an Indian court, the Punjab and Haryana High Court took help of ChatGPT to assess the worldwide view on bail in a case of assault "laced with cruelty".
The court sought aid of ChatGPT -- an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot -- while hearing the bail plea of an accused in a murder case.
Justice Anoop Chitkara, in his order on Monday, however, made it clear that any reference to ChatGPT and any observation made is neither an expression of opinion on the merits of the case nor shall the trial court advert to these comments.
"This reference is only intended to present a broader picture on bail jurisprudence, where cruelty is a factor," the judge observed.
While dismissing the bail plea, the judge observed "causing death itself is cruel but if the cruelty causes death, the tables turn".
"When the physical assault is done with an element of cruelty, the parameters of bail also change," he further observed.
"...when the offence is heinous and the crime is brutal, cruelty becomes one of the factors in granting or refusing bail. The impact of individuals who act with cruelty is devastating not only for those on whom the direct harm and pain is inflicted but also on a systemic level.
"Cruel individuals contribute to sustain the greater deficiencies of society like gender, economic and social inequalities. Once the courts form a prima facie opinion that the accused acted with cruelty, then such an accused ordinarily should not be granted bail, and if the courts still deem it appropriate to grant, then it must be after specifying the reasons for such an indulgence".
The judge, in his order, stated that "to further assess the worldwide view on bail when the assault was laced with cruelty, the use of artificial intelligence platform which has been trained with multitudinous data was made".
What is the jurisprudence on bail when the assailants assaulted with cruelty? this was the question put to ChatGPT, according to the order.
The response of ChatGPT was: "The jurisprudence on bail for cases where the assailants have assaulted with cruelty will depend on the specific circumstances of the case and the laws and regulations of the jurisdiction where the case is being tried. However, in general, if the assailants have been charged with a violent crime that involves cruelty, such as murder, aggravated assault, or torture, they may be considered a danger to the community and a flight risk." "In such cases, the judge may be less inclined to grant bail or may set the bail amount very high to ensure that the defendant appears in court and does not pose a risk to public safety. The severity of the assault, the defendant's criminal history, and the strength of the evidence against them are all factors that a judge will consider when deciding whether to grant bail.
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "It is important to note that the presumption of innocence is a fundamental principle of the justice system, and all defendants are entitled to bail unless there are compelling reasons to deny it. Therefore, even in cases where the assailants have assaulted with cruelty, they may still be granted bail if the judge determines that they do not pose a risk to the community or a flight risk," read the text generated by AI tool.
According to the case record, the petitioner is a Punjab resident. An FIR in the matter for murder and other offences was registered against the petitioner and his accomplices in June 2020 at a police station in Ludhiana district.
The petitioner's counsel argued that he is entitled to bail on grounds of parity.
The state opposed the bail plea contending that "given the criminal past, the accused is likely to indulge in crime once released on bail".
The court held that in the present case, an analysis of the allegations, injuries, and evidence collected points that the accused and some of his accomplices acted with ferociousness and a total lack of mercy. Thus, does not warrant the grant of bail to the accused.&nbsp;

The Punjab and Haryana High Court was hearing a petition filed which claimed that Amritpal Singh was in the "illegal custody" of police.

Punjab govt tells HC it is 'close to catching' Amritpal Singh

The Punjab government told the high court on Tuesday that they were coordinating with several agencies and close to catching pro-Khalistan preacher Amritpal Singh. 

The Punjab and Haryana High Court was hearing a petition filed which claimed that Amritpal Singh was in the "illegal custody" of police.

The Punjab government told the high court on Tuesday that they were coordinating with several agencies and close to catching pro-Khalistan preacher Amritpal Singh.
The radical preacher, declared a fugitive by the government, has been on the run since a police crackdown on him and his outfit &mdash; Waris Punjab De &mdash; began on March 18. Images and videos that emerged on social media have showed him changing his vehicles and appearance multiple times in a bid to dodge police.
However, Punjab police have detained or arrested a number of his associates during the crackdown.
Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has said he has asked the director general of police to release from preventive custody those who were not found to be involved in any anti-national activity. He, however, has added that strict action will be taken against anyone who tries to disturb peace in the state.
On Tuesday, the Punjab and Haryana High Court was hearing a habeas corpus petition filed by advocate Imaan Singh Khara, which claimed that Amritpal Singh was in the "illegal custody" of police.
Punjab Advocate General Vinod Ghai told the court that Amritpal Singh has not been arrested yet and they were coordinating with agencies to nab the radical preacher.
Later, the petitioner told reporters that the AG said in the court that they were close to catching Amritpal Singh.
Justice N S Shekhawat asked the petitioner to file an affidavit to produce evidence that Amritpal Singh was in police custody and pointed out that the state's stand was that the preacher had not been arrested.
The court told the petitioner it would appoint a warrant officer if evidence was placed before it to show that Amritpal Singh was in illegal detention.
The court fixed March 29 as the next date of hearing in the case.
On March 21, the court rapped the Punjab government over the intelligence failure that allowed Amritpal Singh to escape the police crackdown.
Khara is the legal advisor of Amritpal Singh and his outfit.&nbsp;
