Commuters on Monday blocked railway track near Kalwa station in Thane city over their demands for resumption of non-AC train services.  
A video of the same has gone viral with hundreds of passengers seen halting the path of an empty AC train for 20 minutes.
The protest, however, did not affect the train services on the main line of the Central Railway (CR), as it took place at the car shed in Kalwa, officials said.
They added that people want non-AC locals be restored on the route from Kalwa to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT.
"An empty rake of AC local going out from the car shed was detained by people for about 20 minutes - from 8.10 am to 8.30 am," Shivaji Sutar, Centra Railway CPRO said.
The Central Railway on Independence Day announced 10 AC locals replacing the existing non-AC locals on the main line of Kalwa station. 
This left the commuters unhappy who reportedly expressed concerns over the proposed timings of these 10 AC trains.

Some of the convicts in the Bilkis Bano case of the 2002 Gujarat riots are "Brahmins" with good 'sanskaar' or values and it is possible they may have been fixed due to their past family activities, a BJP MLA, who was a part of the state government panel that recommended remission to all the 11 men found guilty, said on Thursday.
C K Raulji, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA from Godhra, said he does not know whether the convicts, released after spending more than 15 years in jail, were involved in the crime.
On August 15, all the 11 convicts sentenced to life imprisonment in the 2002 case of Bilkis Bano's gang rape and murder of her seven family members during the communal riots walked out of the Godhra sub-jail after the BJP government in Gujarat allowed their release under its remission policy.
"We took the decision on the basis of a Supreme Court order. We were asked to look at their (convicts') behaviour and decide (on their early release)," Raulji, who was one of the members of the government-appointed committee that recommended granting of remission to the convicts, told a news portal.
"We asked the jailer and learnt that their behaviour was good in the prison...also (some of the convicts) are Brahmins. They have good 'sanskaar' (values)," said the ruling party legislator.
The Gujarat government's decision has invited sharp criticism from the opposition parties who have said the move was against the Centre's guidelines.
However, Raulji said the convicts may have been fixed.
"It is possible that they (the convicts) might have been fixed in the case due to their past family activities. When such riots take place it happens that those who are not involved are named. But I don't know if they committed the crime, we decided (on remission) based on their behaviour," he said.
Asked about the welcome accorded to the 11 men after their release from prison, he said they had not welcomed them.
The Gujarat government released the 11 convicts after the Supreme Court directed it to consider their plea for relief under the state's 1992 remission policy.
A special CBI court in Mumbai had on January 21, 2008, sentenced to life imprisonment all the 11 accused in the case for murder of seven family members of Bilkis Bano, a riots survivor, and her gang rape. Their conviction was later upheld by Bombay High Court.
These convicts served more than 15 years in prison after which one of them approached the Supreme Court with a plea for his premature release.
The apex court had directed the Gujarat government to look into the issue of remission of his sentence as per its 1992 policy on the basis of the date of his conviction. Thereafter, the government formed a committee which took the decision to allow release of all the convicts.
On March 3, 2002, Bilkis Bano's family was attacked by a mob at Randhikpur village in Limkheda taluka of Dahod district. Bilkis, who was five months pregnant at the time, was gang raped and seven members of her family were killed during the riots triggered by the Godhra train burning incident. 

'Bilkis Bano rapists brahmins with good sanskar': BJP MLA who recommended release

As Gujarat govt faces flak over the released of 11 men convicted of raping Bilkis Bano and murdering her family during the 2002 Gujarat riots, the BJP MLA from the state has invoked the caste of the rapists. 

Godhra MLA CK Raulji, who was a part of the state government panel that recommended the release of the 11 men, has said that some of the convicts are 'brahmins' with 'good sanskar' or values.&nbsp;

Did Netaji survive the plane crash? Or did he really live in disguise for years? These speculations around Indian freedom fighter and national leader Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose seem to be unceasing. Even after so many years of his death, Bose's demise is still shrouded in mystery.
India commemorates Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose's death anniversary on August 18 every year and for the longest time after the fierce leader suspiciously disappeared, it was widely believed that Netaji died in a plane crash in Taiwan on August 18, 1945. Initial investigations carried out by the British government in pre-independent India, Japanese government and Allied forces came to the same conclusion of Netaji's dying in a plane crash. Apparently, Netaji died of third degree burns in a hospital. 
What do we know of the fateful day?
According to historical narrative, one version states that after Japan's formal surrender post World War II on August 16, 1945, Bose decided to leave for Saigon along with his aides. Netaji accompanied by his aides and senior Japanese officials arrived in Saigon. After Japan's unconditional surrender, Netaji wanted to go to the Soviet Union in search of a safe place. To carry out his wish, Japanese Field Marshal Tarauchi carved a secret plan. On August 18, 1945 Netaji along with his colleagues arrived at Taihoku. The team was headed for Dairen in Manchuria to drop off Japanese Army Lieutenant general Shidei. Apparently, Netaji agreed to go with Shidei to Mukden (Shenyang), the capital of the Manchuria region in China. The plane took off at around 2-2:30 pm. As soon as the plane was air-borne, a loud explosion was heard with multiple bangs. The plane crashed thereafter. 
Why was Netaji's demise disputed?
Soon after Netaji's demise, conspiracy theories and narratives started doing rounds. In 1956, the Indian government constituted a committee to investigate his death. The committee backed the same theory of death in a plane crash. However, Netaji's brother refuted the claims and refused to sign the report and stating this was a cover-up.
Theories over Bose's death

The narrative is known from the time Netaji disappeared in 1945-- he died in a plane crash in Taihoku (present day Taiwan) on August 18. Netaji's followers refused to believe the theory and stressed on Netaji surviving the crash. 
2) In 1966, Netaji's brother claimed that the freedom fighter was all set to make a return. For years, rumours floated around sightings of Netaji in the country. 
The second theory was proposed by Indian army's Retd Major Gen GD Bakshi in his book. Bakshi claimed that the plane crash was a decoy by the Japanese to help Bose escape to the former Soviet Union. Not just this, the retired major general also stated that Netaji successfully made three radio broadcasts from Siberia which gave away his location to the British. It is after this that the British interrogated Netaji and thus tortured him to death, alleges the retired general.
 In another bizarre theory claims were made that Netaji was living disguised as a saint named Gumnami baba Uttar Pradesh in the 80s.

How Mukherjee commission's report baffled all
Even though there were weird theories and narratives surrounding Netaji's disappearance, Mukherjee commission's report in 1999 left the countrymen baffled. The report supported public speculations that Bose did not die in a plane crash and the remains in the Japanese temple are not his. 
The Dis-classification of Netaji's file
In 2016, a total of 304 files related to Netaji were declassified by the Central ministry. This move came after the Kolkata government made files related to Netaji's public. The government had received appeals for several years. Even after the declassification of the files, there is less known about Netaji's death. It is believed that Netaji's remains are kept at Renko-ji temple in Tokyo Japan. Netaji's only child Anita Bose Pfaff on 15, August, 2022 appealed to the Indian government to bring back his remains from Tokyo temple and conduct a DNA test so Netaji's kin gets closure. 

Netaji's kin want his remains brought back: All you need to know about mystery around his death

Let's take a look at the historic narratives, the conspiracy theories and why the kin of Netaji are still longing for a closure. 

Netaji's only child Anita Bose Pfaff on 15, August, 2022 appealed to the Indian government to bring back his remains from Tokyo temple and conduct a DNA test so Bose's kin can get a closure.

Did Netaji survive the plane crash? Or did he really live in disguise for years? These speculations around Indian freedom fighter and national leader Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose seem to be unceasing. Even after so many years of his death, Bose's demise is still shrouded in mystery.
<a href="https://www.editorji.com/india-news/sexual-harassment-case-won-t-prima-facie-stand-if-woman-is-wearing-provocative-dress-kerala-court-1660728138748">India</a> commemorates Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose's death anniversary on August 18 every year and for the longest time after the fierce leader suspiciously disappeared, it was widely believed that Netaji died in a plane crash in <a href="https://www.editorji.com/world-news/taiwan-china-hold-opposing-military-drills-amid-tensions-1660742600766">Taiwan</a> on August 18, 1945. Initial investigations carried out by the British government in pre-independent India, Japanese government and Allied forces came to the same conclusion of Netaji's dying in a plane crash. Apparently, Netaji died of third degree burns in a hospital.&nbsp;
What do we know of the fateful day?
According to historical narrative, one version states that after Japan's formal surrender post World War II on August 16, 1945, Bose decided to leave for Saigon along with his aides. Netaji accompanied by his aides and senior Japanese officials arrived in Saigon. After Japan's unconditional surrender, Netaji wanted to go to the Soviet Union in search of a safe place. To carry out his wish, Japanese Field Marshal Tarauchi carved a secret plan. On August 18, 1945 Netaji along with his colleagues arrived at Taihoku. The team was headed for Dairen in Manchuria to drop off Japanese Army Lieutenant general Shidei. Apparently, Netaji agreed to go with Shidei to Mukden (Shenyang), the capital of the Manchuria region in <a href="https://www.editorji.com/business-news/china-blackout-why-is-power-being-cut-to-factories-and-homes-1660759809151">China</a>. The plane took off at around 2-2:30 pm. As soon as the plane was air-borne, a loud explosion was heard with multiple bangs. The plane crashed thereafter.&nbsp;
Why was Netaji's demise disputed?
 Soon after Netaji's demise, conspiracy theories and narratives started doing rounds. In 1956, the Indian government constituted a committee to investigate his death. The committee backed the same theory of death in a plane crash. However, Netaji's brother refuted the claims and refused to sign the report and stating this was a cover-up.

 More than 5,000 residents will vacate Emerald Court and ATS Village societies and over 2,500 vehicles will be removed from there on August 28 - the day of demolition for Supertech's illegal twin towers in Noida, officials said.
While the twin towers had come up on premises of Emerald Court only, ATS Village is adjoining the illegal structures on the other side in Sector 93A of the city.
The impact of the demolition of the nearly 100 metre tall twin towers would be maximum on these two societies and its residents, the officials said.
In pursuance of a Supreme Court order that found the twin towers illegal, they are scheduled to be demolished at 2.30 pm on August 28 by controlled implosion technique.
Over 3,500 kg of explosives will be used to raze them, according to officials of the demolition firm Edifice Engineering.
According to the evacuation plan, finalised on Thursday, the residents of Emerald Court and ATS Village will have to vacate the premises by 7.30 am on August 28 and can return after 4 pm only with safety clearance from Edifice.
All vehicles will have to be removed from the two societies as well for the period, the plan stated.
"There are approximately 650 flats in Emerald Court and 450 flats in ATS Village. Both societies have a combined number of residents over 5,000 who will be required to move out as per schedule on August 28," a Noida Authority official said.
"As for the removal of vehicles, several residents have more than one vehicle. There are around 1,200 vehicles in Emerald Court and 1,500 vehicles in ATS Village that will have to be moved outside. The Noida Authority will provide space for them in the multilevel parking facility at Botanical Garden metro station," the official said.
The multi-level parking at Botanical Garden Metro station can easily accommodate more than 5,000 vehicles at a time, according to the official.
Entry of people, vehicles and animals will be restricted in the close proximity area -- known as exclusion zone -- of the twin towers in Sector 93A, the plan stated.
The Noida-Greater Noida Expressway, which is close to the twin towers, will remain shut for vehicular movement from 2.15 pm to 2.45 pm on August 28, it showed.
Fire tenders, ambulances, etc, required for emergency services, shall be parked on the road constructed behind the park in front of the twin towers, it added.

 The Narendra Modi government is "scared" of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's "growing popularity and his governance model", the AAP claimed Friday while the BJP hit back with corruption allegations amid a CBI raid at Manish Sisodia's residence over the Delhi Excise Policy.
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and its Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha said the CBI would find nothing but "pencils and geometry boxes" at the home of Sisodia, who is also Delhi's education minister.
The BJP was planning to jail the Delhi deputy chief minister, he alleged, adding over 100 fake cases had been registered against AAP leaders but they came clean in courts every time.
Kejriwal said, "Many obstacles will be created in our mission. This is not the first raid on Sisodia; there were raids in the past too. There have been raids on many of our ministers and me too. But nothing came out of them and nothing will come out this time as well." As a CBI team reached Sisodia's residence in the morning, he took to Twitter to welcome the CBI, saying conspiracies will not break him nor deter his resolve to continue to work for providing good education.
The BJP, on the other hand, launched a scathing attack on the Delhi deputy chief minister, with Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur saying Sisodia, who also holds the excise portfolio, has become "excuse minister".
"The issue is of liquor licenses and the corruption in it. The minister concerned is Manish Sisodia. He reversed the excise policy the day the probe was handed over to the CBI. Why was this step taken? Because, there was corruption in the issuance of liquor licenses," Thakur alleged.
Delhi Lt Governor V K Saxena last month recommended a CBI probe into alleged irregularities in the implementation of Delhi's Excise Policy 2021-22. He suspended 11 excise officials in the matter. Deputy Chief Minister Sisodia had also demanded a CBI probe into alleged irregularities in the policy.
The searches by the CBI covered seven states and union territories.
At a press conference on Friday, Kejriwal hailed Sisodia as the "world's best education minister" after his name was featured on the front page of the New York Times and claimed the "obstacles" like the CBI raids will not deter them from their mission to make India the "number one country".
"The CBI has been asked from above to harass us," he alleged.
AAP national spokesperson Sanjay Singh said the alleged irregularities in the formulation of excise policy are just "an excuse" to put the CBI after Sisodia.
"The real issue here is the growing popularity of Arvind Kejriwal and his Delhi model of governance in education and healthcare," he said.
Days after Delhi Health Minister Satyender Jain, who gave the Delhi model of mohalla clinic to the world, was jailed by the Enforcement Directorate, the prime minister has put the CBI after Sisodia, the AAP charged.
"Preparations are underway to put Sisodia behind bars as the prime minister is not able to sleep at night due to the growing popularity of Kejriwal and his Delhi model of governance in education and healthcare sectors," Singh charged.
The Delhi BJP targeted the Kejriwal government, alleging it was involved in a liquor "scam" of hundreds of crores of rupees.
West Delhi BJP MP Parvesh Verma accused Sisodia of being involved in corruption, and that "two middlemen who used to collect cash from liquor licensees have left the country".
The Kejriwal government raised the commission for wholesale licensees from 2 per cent to 12 per cent. Of this, 6 per cent in cash was collected for the AAP government by several people, two of which left the country as soon as a CBI probe was recommended," Verma alleged at a press conference.
The Congress said the "relentless misuse" of agencies against political rivals erodes their credibility and gives an opportunity even for the corrupt to get away.
"The flip side to relentless misuse of agencies against political rivals is that even legitimate, rightful actions of agencies come under a cloud of suspicion.
"In the process, the corrupt get away, hiding behind the 'misuse' argument and the honest end up paying the price," Khera tweeted.
