  • Police advise people not to abandon their houses while attending marriage functions

    [ad_1]

    Srinagar, May 9: In order to avoid and stop theft incidents, police in Srinagar have advised people not to abandon their houses and refrain from keeping valuables in the house.

    In some areas of Srinagar city, people claimed that thieves broke into their houses and looted cash and valuables when they were out to attend a marriage function.

    To prevent such theft, police have advised people to safeguard their valuables and don’t keep cash and other valuables in the house when nobody remains present in the house.

    A top police official told the news agency Kashmir News Trust that anti-social elements especially burglars keep an eye on those houses which remain locked and where family members go out to attend any function.

    “It’s our responsibility to advise people to safeguard their valuables as a preventive measure,” he said adding that people should avail of the facilities of bank lockers, ATMs, debit and credit cards.

    The official said that a slight negligence on their part will cost them their hard-earned money and ornaments.

    He said people should help the police by cooperating to prevent thefts, especially those that occur during the day.

    “People can keep a minimum amount at home since all banks provide facilities such as ATM’s and net banking which can be used for any transaction or transfers. They are reliable and convenient. Also, jewelry must be kept safe in the bank and only those required for daily use can be kept at home,” the official said adding that people should inform the concerned police station if they find suspects roaming in their areas.

  • Massive search ops in Hoshiarpur after some suspects abandon car

    Massive search ops in Hoshiarpur after some suspects abandon car

    Hoshiarpur: In the wake of the Punjab Police being on high alert after radical preacher Amritpal Singh escaped its dragnet, a massive search operation was launched in a Hoshiarpur village late on Tuesday night after some suspects abandoned their vehicle following a chase.

    A police team was chasing a car from Phagwara after it suspected that fugitive Amritpal and his aide could be travelling in that vehicle, sources said.

    The occupants of the vehicle abandoned the car near Gurdwara Bhai Chanchal Singh in Marnaian village here and fled, they said.

    A cordon and search operation has been launched in and around the village while checkposts and barricades have been raised on the roads to nab the suspects.

    Amritpal Singh remains untraceable since a police crackdown against him and members of his pro-Khalistan ‘Waris Punjab De’ outfit on March 18, about three weeks after he and his supporters stormed into the Ajnala police station near Amritsar to secure the release of an arrested man.

    The preacher escaped the police dragnet in Jalandhar district on March 18, switching vehicles and changing appearances.

    He and his associates have been booked under several criminal cases related to spreading disharmony among classes, attempt to murder, attack on police personnel and creating obstructions in the lawful discharge of duty by public servants.

    A new video of Amritpal Singh with his key aide Papalpreet Singh surfaced on social media on Tuesday, showing the pro-Khalistan preacher without a turban and wearing a mask.

    The undated CCTV footage, said to be from a market in Delhi, showed the fugitive walking down a street wearing dark glasses. Behind him, Papalpreet Singh could be seen walking with a bag.

    There is no official word from Punjab Police on the fresh footage.

    A senior Delhi Police official said they are probing whether the persons seen in the video are Amritpal Singh and his aide.

  • Union minister Amit Shah urges youth not to abandon mother tongue

    Union minister Amit Shah urges youth not to abandon mother tongue

    [ad_1]

    Vadodara: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday asked the youth never to abandon their mother tongue.

    Addressing the graduating students of the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda here at its 71st convocation, he also asked them to study the National Education Policy (NEP), 2020.

    “I would like to tell all degree-holders that do whatever in your life, but never abandon your mother tongue. Come out of this inferiority complex that (mastering a particular) language will give you acceptance,” he said, speaking in Hindi.

    “Language is an expression and not a substance. There can be any language for expression. When a person thinks and conducts research and analysis in his mother language, the capacity for the same increases many times. Along with analysis, it increases his capacity for logic and decision- making,” he said.

    One’s mother tongue is the best medium for personality development, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader said.

    “The languages of our country have the best grammar, literature, poetry and history, and unless we enrich them, we cannot improve the future of our country,” Shah added.

    For this reason, Prime Minister Narendra Modi thought of “making mother tongue compulsory in primary education” under the NEP, he said.

    He also urged the graduating students to study the NEP, which he said will clear their concepts about the use of education.

    The NEP includes “Maharaja Sayajirao’s idea of accessible education, Sardar Patel’s idea of empowerment, Ambedkar’s idea of knowledge, Aurobindo’s idea of cultural and nationalistic education and Gandhi’s emphasis on mother tongue,” Shah said.

    Sayajirao Gaekwad III, the erstwhile ruler of the Baroda state, tried to establish an exemplary governance system, he said.

    Dr B R Ambedkar framed our Constitution which is “among the best” in the world, Shah said, adding that he could accomplish this because (early in his life) Maharaja Gaekwad had given him a scholarship.

    Gaekwad worked to spread education, establish justice, uplift the deprived sections, provide irrigation for farmers and carry out social reforms. He worked to provide compulsory and free education, and laid the foundation for the Faculty of Fine Arts, Shah said.

    The NEP has tried to make education “stream-less and classless,” he said.

    “When it becomes so, you can think freely. The aim of education is not to gain a degree, good job, to get comforts in personal life. Its aim can be to become a complete human, and it is possible only when education is streamless and classless, and which is why (PM) Modi-ji has tried to make it so,” he said.

    The NEP was the first education policy in the country that did not face opposition from (the proponents of) any ideology or political party, the Union minister claimed.

    Earlier in the day, Shah inaugurated a redeveloped lake at Nardipura and laid foundation stones for various developmental projects at Kalol in his Lok Sabha constituency of Gandhinagar.

    He also chaired a meeting of the District Development Coordination and Monitoring Committees (DISHA) in Gandhinagar.
