  • The Catch Up: 8 July

    The Catch Up: 8 July
    Jul 8 2024
    This is the Catch Up on 3 Things for the Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.
    It’s the 8th of July and here are today's headlines.

    In the highest 24-hour spell of rainfall since 2019, Mumbai’s Santacruz Observatory recorded 268 mm of rainfall today morning. Amid the downpour, 51 flights were cancelled to and from Mumbai till 11 am. Train and BEST bus services were affected due to submerged tracks and roads, and traffic movement was paralysed across the city. The BMC has declared a holiday for all BMC, government, and private schools and colleges due to the weather situation today.

    The Supreme Court rejected the West Bengal government’s plea today challenging the Calcutta High Court order of a CBI probe into allegations of crimes against women and land grabbing in Sandeshkhali. A bench of Justices B R Gavai and K V Viswanathan asked why should the state be interested in protecting someone. It added that the counsel appearing for the state said the matter be adjourned after the apex court asked this specific query.

    The Supreme Court today said, quote,"it is clear that leak of NEET UG question paper has taken place. We want to know the number of beneficiaries of the question paper leak, and what action has been taken against them.” The lawyers representing a petitioner said that they were seeking the cancellation of the exam on grounds such as paper leak, OMR sheet manipulation, impersonation and cheating. CJI DY Chandrachud said that “if leak has been propagated through social media, then re-test has to be ordered.”

    In his day-long visit to the northeast, the Leader of Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi met internally displaced people from the Meitei community members staying in a relief camp in Manipur’s Jiribam. Before heading to Manipur, he was in Assam where he visited relief camps with displaced Kuki-Zo members and even those in which flood-affected people are taking shelter in. He said the flood situation on ground “reflect the gross and grave mismanagement by BJP’s double-engine government.”

    Set to attend the 22nd India-Russia Annual Summit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that he is looking forward to reviewing all aspects of bilateral cooperation with “friend Vladimir Putin.” He further said that both the leaders will “seek to play a supportive role for a peaceful and stable region.” Modi will arrive in Moscow late afternoon on 8th of July. It will be Modi’s first visit to Russia since Moscow invaded Ukraine in February 2022.

  • The Catch Up: 5 July

    The Catch Up: 5 July
    Jul 5 2024
    This is the Catch Up on 3 Things for The Indian Express and I am Niharika Nanda
    It’s the 5th of July and here are the top headlines of the week.

    The Uttar Pradesh Police arrested six satsang organizers yesterday in connection with the Hathras stampede that killed 121 people and injured several others on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has ordered a judicial probe into the incident, led by retired High Court judge Brijesh Kumar Srivastava and two other retired IAS officers, Hemant Rao and Bhavesh Kumar Singh.

    A week after being granted bail by the Jharkhand High Court, JMM leader and former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren, along with his Cabinet, took the oath of office for a second term on Thursday. His predecessor, Champai Soren, met the Governor on Wednesday to submit his resignation after the ruling coalition’s 45 MLAs elected Hemant Soren as their leader. Hemant Soren had resigned as Chief Minister five months ago, prior to his arrest on money laundering charges, after which Champai Soren had assumed the role.

    On Wednesday, the Union Government defended the Hindi nomenclature of the three new criminal laws that came into effect on Monday before the Madras High Court, asserting the constitutional legitimacy of the names against allegations of unconstitutionality. The three new laws — The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, the Bharatiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita, and the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam passed in Parliament last December replaced the Indian Penal Code, the Criminal Procedure Code, and the Indian Evidence Act respectively.

    The Delhi Police stepped up security outside the house of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi after receiving intelligence inputs about possible threats from right-wing groups. This action follows Rahul Gandhi’s maiden speech as the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, where he took a swipe at the BJP, saying that those who call themselves Hindus are engaged in “violence and hate.” BJP leaders reacted sharply to the remark, alleging that Rahul Gandhi insulted Hindus.

    The Lebanese Hezbollah group reported launching over 200 rockets at several military bases in Israel on Thursday in retaliation for a strike that killed one of its senior commanders. The attack by the Iran-backed militant group is one of the largest in the ongoing conflict along the Lebanon-Israel border, with tensions escalating in recent weeks. The Israeli military said that "numerous projectiles and suspicious aerial targets" entered its territory from Lebanon, many of which were intercepted. There were no immediate reports of casualties.
