PDP leader Waheed Parra has perhaps become the first person to benefit from the Supreme Court putting on hold trial of cases under sedition law as the High Court for Jammum Kashmir and Ladakh granted him bail in an alleged militant conspiracy case filed by the NIA. The division bench listed the apex court ruling as one of the mitigating factors while allowing Para's appeal for bail. The HC noted that regarding the sedition charges, the issue is governed by the recent judgment of the Supreme Court whereby the apex court has directed that all the pending trials, appeals and proceedings with respect to the charge framed under Sedition law shall be kept in abeyance. While granting bail to Para against a surety of Rs 1 lakh, the court directed Para to present himself before the investigating officer as and when required to, surrender his passport to the investigating officer of the case and not leave Jammu and Kashmir without the prior permission of the trial court.

A person was shot dead and four buses were set ablaze by Naxals in Dev in Bihar's Aurangabad district on Saturday night. News agency ANI reports that the deceased has been identified as an uncle of BJP MLC Rajendra Kumar. The naxals also blew up a community centre and fired 100 rounds.   

Maharashtra BJP president Chandrakant Patil has stirred a controversy with his comments asking NCP MP Supriya Sule to "go home and cook" instead of being in politics, drawing a sharp reaction from her party.
Patil made the remarks on Wednesday during a protest by the state BJP unit in Mumbai for seeking reservation for the Other Backward Classes (OBCs) in elections.
However, the BJP leader on Thursday said his words were part of a "rural style" of speaking and that he did not mean to disrespect women or Sule, who is the daughter of NCP chief Sharad Pawar.
"Whenever I meet Sule, we always greet each other with respect,” Patil said.
After the Supreme Court recently allowed reservation for the OBCs in local body elections in Madhya Pradesh, Sule, whose party shares power with the Shiv Sena and Congress in Maharashtra, had said she had contacted MP CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan during his Delhi visit, but he did not divulge what he did to get nod for the reservation.
On Wednesday, Patil, during the BJP's protest, hit out at Sule, saying, "Why are you (Sule) even in politics, just go home and cook. Go to Delhi or to a cemetery, but get us the OBC quota. Despite being a Lok Sabha member, how come you don't know how to get an appointment with chief minister." Taking a dim view of Patil's remarks, NCP's state women wing president Vidya Chavan, without taking his name, said a person who denied ticket to a sitting woman MLA and contested from her constituency is bad-mouthing an MP, who has been honoured with the Sansad Ratna award (for good performance) twice.
"We know you believe in Manusmriti, but we will not remain silent anymore," she said.
"He should learn to make chapattis so that he can help his wife at home," the NCP leader quipped.
Patil, who hails from Kolhapur, contested the 2019 state Assembly election from Pune's Kothrud seat, where sitting BJP MLA Medha Kulkarni was denied the ticket to make way for him.
Supriya Sule's husband Sadanand Sule also in a social media post criticised Patil's remarks, saying, "This is the Maharashtra BJP president speaking about Supriya. I have always maintained that they (BJP) are misogynistic and demean women whenever they can." "I am proud of my wife who is a homemaker, mother and a successful politician, one amongst many other hardworking and talented women in India. This is an insult to all women,” he said.
However, Patil on Thursday claimed his comments were blown out of proportion.
"My words were part of a style of speaking found commonly in rural parts of Maharashtra. At times, women in villages tell their children to go to a graveyard if they can't do certain things,” he said.
The BJP leader also said leaving aside the “cook” remarks, nothing else in his comments was demeaning or insensitive towards women.
“Similar is the case with the 'go to a cemetery' comment. The MVA government's failure to secure the OBC quota in civic bodies (elections) prompted me to say it. You will find many people using such words,” he said.
Patil also said that Sadanand Sule should learn about the village life.
"There are many such proverbs used in rural areas...My comments have been blown out of proportion. Even Supriya Sule has responded to my comments considerately, saying I have the right to make comments,” he said.

"My words were part of a style of speaking found commonly in rural parts of Maharashtra. At times, women in villages tell their children to go to a graveyard if they can't do certain things,&rdquo; he said.
The BJP leader also said leaving aside the &ldquo;cook&rdquo; remarks, nothing else in his comments was demeaning or insensitive towards women.
&ldquo;Similar is the case with the 'go to a cemetery' comment. The MVA government's failure to secure the OBC quota in civic bodies (elections) prompted me to say it. You will find many people using such words,&rdquo; he said.
Patil also said that Sadanand Sule should learn about the village life.
"There are many such proverbs used in rural areas...My comments have been blown out of proportion. Even Supriya Sule has responded to my comments considerately, saying I have the right to make comments,&rdquo; he said.

The Indian Army has deployed a large number of troops along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in East Ladakh. The move by the Army comes after the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) reportedly constructed a double-span bridge on the north banks of the lake Pangong Tso. On his first visit to Ladakh after assuming the post of Chief of Army Staff General Manoj Pande inspected the LAC deployments.
A Hindustan Times report said that General Pande though satisfied with the stationed troops at the LAC, took note of the excessive military upgradation being undertaken by the PLA in the Aksai Chin region. Both, the Indian and the Chinese armies have deployed identical amounts of troops along the 1500-KM long LAC.
Chinese armour and rocket regiments are stationed at Rudog base, south of Pangong Tso, and at Xiadullah in the Xinjiang military region. The PLA Air Force fighters and bombers are stationed across Demchok and Xinjiang. The alleged second bridge built over the Pangong Tso will allow faster deployment of troops for the Chinese, according to a military assessment report.
While on the other hand, the Indian Army is deployed at the LAC along roads that will aid in transporting armoured personnel carriers or tanks all the way till Daulet Beg Oldi. Seven bridges are coming up on the Galwan river to handle military emergencies.
At present, the militaries have only disengaged in the areas of Galwan Valley, the banks of Pangong Tso and the Gogra-Hot Springs region. The HT report citing sources stated that until the PLA does not restore the April 2020 status quo ante, New Delhi will not be going forward with normalising ties with Beijing.

In Delhi's Thyagraj Stadium, constructed for the Commonwealth games and run by the state government, training was reportedly forced to wrap up by 7 pm. Accoriding to the athletes and coaches, they would wrap up by 8-8:30 earlier, as it was more suitable to the hot weather of the national capital.
An expose in the Indian Express alleged that Delhi's Principal Secretary (Revenue) Sanjeev Khirwar walks his dog daily and the ground was cleared for security purposes. 
The report says they visited the stadium to follow up on the allegation to find that security guards would clear out the stadium by 7 pm.
Indian Express quoted Khirwar, a 1994-batch IAS officer, as having said that the allegation was 'absolutely incorrect' and that he 'sometimes' takes his pet for a walk, but Khirwar denied disrupting the practice sessions. 
Coaches and athletes said that they have to train earlier in the heat as practice has to end early. Several said that they shifted training to Jahawarlal Nehru Stadium, not too far from the Thyagraj stadium. 
On the condition of anonymity, some parents of the athletes, told the media outlet that they found the situation to be unacceptable, saying that using a state owned stadium to walk one's pet was a 'gross misuse of power'.

A 27-year-old daily wage earner was arrested in Greater Noida for allegedly damaging idols kept at a temple as he was “upset" with God over his family's ill health for the past few years, police said on Wednesday.
The man, identified as Vinod Kumar alias Bhoora who is a native of Chhatarpur district in Madhya Pradesh, was arrested on Tuesday after an FIR was lodged at Beta 2 police station on the complaint of a local a day after the incident came to fore, they said.
According to the police, three idols kept at a temple were found vandalized on Monday morning. The temple did not have any priest and acting on the complaint, police were deployed at the site in a preventive measure, they said.
“The matter was investigated and accused Vinod Kumar was arrested on Tuesday. The tools used by him to damage the idols were also recovered,” a police spokesperson said.
“During questioning, the accused told the police that his wife and five-year-old child have not been keeping well for the past three-four years. He said that he had been praying to the Gods but their health did not improve. Recently, his aunt also passed away, leaving him severely depressed,” the spokesperson said.
All these events led Kumar to damaging the idols, the police said, claiming the accused has confessed to committing the crime using a hammer and a chisel, both of which have been recovered.
A case was lodged against the accused under Indian Penal Code Section 295 (defiling place of worship), the police said, adding that he has been sent to jail.

A 27-year-old daily wage earner was arrested in Greater Noida for allegedly damaging idols kept at a temple as he was &ldquo;upset" with God over his family's ill health for the past few years, police said on Wednesday.

Captain Abhilasha Barak on Wednesday became the first woman combat aviator in the Indian Army.
Officials said she has been awarded the coveted 'wings' along with 36 Army pilots by the director-general of the Army Aviation during a ceremony held at Combat Army Aviation Training School in Nashik.
"Captain Barak became the first woman officer to join the Army Aviation Corps as combat aviator after successful completion of the combat Army aviation course," an official said.
She hails from Haryana and was commissioned into the Army Air Defence Corps in September 2018.
The combat aviator is the daughter of Col S Om Singh (Retd).
Captain Abhilasha has done a number of professional military courses before joining the Army Aviation Corps, said the official.
The Army Aviation Corps is a component of the Army that was formed in November 1986. The Corps is headed by a Lt Gen rank officer known as Director General of Army Aviation.
Over the years, the corps has expanded exponentially with the addition of new units and state of the alt equipment like Cheetah Dhruv, Rudra light combat helicopter and remotely piloted aircraft.
With the motto 'Swift and Sure', the youngest corps of the Indian Army is set to further grow in its tactical importance in the battlefield to take further its role of force multiplier.
The three services have gradually opened up key postings for women in the last few years.
In 2018, flying officer Avani Chaturvedi of the Indian Air Force scripted history by becoming the first Indian woman to fly a fighter aircraft solo. She flew a MiG-21 bison in her first solo flight.
Chaturvedi was part of a three-member women team commissioned as flying officers in July 2016, less than a year after the government decided to open the fighter stream for women on an experimental basis.
In 2020, the Navy announced deploying its first batch of women pilots on the Dornier maritime aircraft.
In a significant move, the Army in 2019 began the process of inducting women into the military police.
The role of the military police includes policing cantonments and army establishments, preventing breach of rules and regulations by soldiers, and maintaining the movement of soldiers as well as logistics during peace and war.
