Uorfi Javed… mere liye na jagah ban jaati hai, jaake dekho.” As manager responded that there are no seats, Uorfi yelled, “Ye seat ka natak nhi hai, ye kapdho ka natak hai, ye mujhe mere kapdho ke vajah se mana kar rahe hain. Sabh samjhti hun mai.” Watch the video below.
Following the incident, Uorfi took to social media to call out the restaurant, claiming that she was denied entry because of her fashion choices. “WTF! Is this really 21st century Mumbai?!?! I was denied entry at a restaurant today. It’s okay if you don’t agree with my fashion choices. It’s NOT to treat me differently for it. And if you are, admit it! Don’t give some lame excuses. Pissed off! Please look into it. @zomato #mumbai,” the actress wrote in her Instagram stories.

Indian not allowed to bring pregnant Sudanese wife home, cries for help

[ad_1]
New Delhi: An Indian national in crisis-torn Sudan has been left in a spot after the Indian mission in Khartoum approved his evacuation request but left behind his pregnant wife who is a Sudanese national.
Boby Sebastian from Kottayam, Kerala, has been working in Khartoum for the past three years, and is married to Sudanese national Hala Muawia Mohamed Abuzaid.
“Due to current unrest in the country and deadly situation we registered evacuation request to (the) Indian Embassy in Khartoum,” Sebastian wrote in a message posted by author and migrant rights activist Rejimon Kuttappan on his social media.

“The evacuation request was successful for me but unfortunately, my wife was not listed on the selected names… I feel it is very unsafe and dangerous to leave her here (Sudan), and also she is conceiving,” the message read.
Sebastian’s Sudanese wife does not have a valid Indian visa or an OCI card at the moment.
According to Kuttappan, the couple has marriage documents, and the wife has also visited Kerala in the past.
Sebastian has requested the relevant Indian authorities to intervene, saying that there isn’t “enough time to obtain a valid Indian visa” for his wife.
Responding to Kuttappan’s tweet, Congress MP from Thiruvananthapuram, Shashi Tharoor said that he is now in direct touch with Sebastian, and has contacted External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar’s office for an emergency evacuation.

“I am in touch with him directly in Khartoum and have contacted @DrSjaishankar’s office to arrange for an emergency evacuation on a temporary permit till her OCI card can be processed,” Tharoor wrote in response to the tweet.
“MEA (Ministry of External Affairs) will probably need to coordinate with MHA (Ministry of Home Affairs) to get this done. My sympathies are with him,” Tharoor wrote.
There are approximately 4,000 Indian citizens in Sudan, and according to the Indian Embassy in Khartoum, about 1,500 of them are longtime residents.
Albert Augustine, a 48 year-old former Indian serviceman, was recently killed by a stray bullet in Sudan.
Jaishankar assured Indians trapped in Sudan that the government was making all-out efforts to get them to safety.
“Our team in Delhi is in continuous touch with Indian citizens in Sudan, advising them saying, you know, ‘It’s very difficult for everybody, but keep calm, don’t take unnecessary risk’,” he said.
Violent clashes that erupted between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces on April 15, continues unabated.
According to Sudan’s Health Ministry, the violence has left at least 424 people dead and about 3,730 wounded.
Last week, the UN Population Fund (UNFPA) said the ongoing heavy fighting is putting tens of thousands of pregnant women in danger, making it too perilous to venture outside their homes to seek urgent medical care.
UNFPA estimates that there are 219,000 pregnant women in the capital city of Khartoum, the epicentre of the violence, with 24,000 of them expected to give birth in the coming weeks.
The unrest has made it extremely difficult for women to seek essential antenatal care, safe delivery services, or postnatal care, the UN agency added.

No religious event allowed on roads in Uttar Pradesh

[ad_1]
Lucknow: No religious events will be allowed to take place on roads, obstructing traffic during the upcoming festivals of Eid, Akshay Tritya and Parshuram Jayanti in Uttar Pradesh.
All district officials in the state have been directed to ensure that religious programmes should be held indoors, and no person should be allowed to block roads.
Principal Secretary (Home) Sanjay Prasad and Special Director General of Police (SDGP) Prashant Kumar have issued directives in this regard to all field officers such as ADGs, Inspector Generals (IG), Deputy IGs, district police chiefs, Divisional Commissioners and District Magistrates (DMs) during a virtual review meeting, said an official note.

Prasad has asked that all officers in the field should ensure that religious programmes take place at their designated places only.
“Under no circumstances should any religious event be held by obstructing the road and traffic. In the past, we have been able to do this through proper communication and coordination. This year, too, we have to make a similar effort,” he remarked further.
The officials have been asked to remain alert against fake news or information shared on social media that might hurt people’s sentiments, and not allow any religious procession for which prior permission was not taken.
“The safety of citizens is our primary responsibility. Eid-ul-Fitr, Akshaya Tritiya and Parshuram Jayanti may be celebrated on the same day on April 22. In view of the present environment, the police will have to be extra careful,” said Prasad.
Special DGP Prashant Kumar suggested frequent police patrolling to strengthen law and order in the state. “We should keep an eye on suspicious activities. Videography of every important event must be done,” he said and added that notorious elements would be dealt with strictly.

Director General of Police R.K. Vishwakarma also reviewed the preparations for the upcoming festivals by zonal, range and district officers.

TN: Not allowed to enter temple, angry Dalits block road causing huge traffic

[ad_1]
The Vikravandi-Kumbakonam road was seized in protest by Dalits of Melpathi village near Koliyanur in Tamil Nadu’s Villupuram district after they were disallowed by upper-caste Hindus from entering a temple.
According to reports, the incident took place on Friday night when three Dalits- Kandhan, Kathiravan, and Karpagam – were allegedly told to back off as they tried to enter the Draupadi Amman temple where a festival was going on.
A heated argument took place between the two parties. The three men were beaten up by upper-caste Hindus and later admitted to the Villupuram government medical college hospital in Mundiyampakkam for treatment.

As the incident came to light, nearly 100 angry Dalits picketed the Vikravandi-Kumbakonam road demanding the arrest of the attackers under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
The protest led to a huge traffic congestion. On information, the Valavanur police reached the spot and tried to calm the protestors. After several hours of pacification, the Dalits finally decided to leave the road and traffic was restored.

Mumbai: Queer student claims not allowed at event over ‘inappropriate’ dress in TISS

[ad_1]
Mumbai: The students’ union president of the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) who has chosen to be identified as queer has claimed discrimination at an event on the campus over “inappropriate” dress.
A TISS professor here said the institute is known for its inclusive nature and they will look into the matter if there has been any incidence where any student was made to feel discriminated against.
The alleged incident took place on March 25, when a speech was organised on “Ambedkar Nationalism, And the Need for Contemporary Collaborative Activitism”.
In a social media post, TISS students’ union president Pratik Permey said, “I was invited to the Ambedkar Memorial Lecture as a representative of the students’ union, to welcome the guests and do some formalities. When I reached the venue, around 6 pm I showed up in the usual dress. It was a blouse and a skirt.”
Around 7, Permey claimed, a professor and a few members of the organising committee said “for an event like this, you cannot wear something like that”.
Even if the institute wants to curb what students wear, it is not fine, said Permey. “Apart from being an indigenous and tribal person, I am also a queer. I also felt that my queerness was not allowed to represent or rather I was not allowed to because of my queerness,” Permey said.
The student union leader added, “I really felt violated and humiliated. My right and my freedom were curbed. I was not allowed to represent.”
Many professors have stood in solidarity and expressed their concerns and support for me. And from the recent conversations and revelations, apparently a group of PhD students were involved in the discussion of my clothes and expression.
— Pratik Permey (@pratikpermey) March 28, 2023
A TISS professor said theirs is perhaps the only institution in the country with a gender-neutral hostel. TISS is known for its inclusive nature with all supportive mechanisms in place for students of all genders and identities to co-exist, said the professor.

“If there has been any incidence where any student feels discriminated, we will look into the matter. All students are assured of an inclusive atmosphere on the campus,” said the professor.

Early wickets allowed Australia to attack India more: Starc

[ad_1]
Visakhapatnam: Australian pacer and ‘Man of the Match’ Mitchell Starc said the early inroads he made into the Indian batting lineup during powerplay made his bowling partners attack with more intent, resulting in the hosts being bundled out for 117 in just 26 overs during the second ODI here on Sunday.
India suffered one of their worst ODI defeats against Australia with the visitors winning the match by 10 wickets to level the series 1-1 after Starc had wiped out the entire top order in powerplay. The left-arm pacer grabbed four wickets in powerplay overs and returned figures of 5/53 for the match as Australia levelled the series 1-1.
“Look, it was a complete bowling performance from us, the fact that we took powerplay wickets allowed us to attack even more throughout the innings,” said Starc, who took his ninth five-for in ODIs.
He said the attacking intent while batting was also because India had been bundled out for a below-par total. Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head minted fours and sixes during the 121-run unbeaten partnership as Australia finished the job in just 11 overs.
“With a lower total to chase, we could be aggressive in the powerplay and Mitch (Marsh) and Trav (Travis Head) came off really well with the bat,” he said.
Starc likened the pitch at the YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Stadium here to Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium, where Australia were bowled out for 188 on a seaming wicket and India too lost wickets in cluster at the top before winning by five wickets.
“It was similar to Mumbai in the fact that there was no scoreboard pressure on the chasing team at any stage,” Starc added.
Starc exposed the Indian batters’ frailties against quality left-arm pace bowling by swinging the ball into them. Suryakumar Yadav was sent back by the lanky quick for a second successive first-ball duck.

Asked if he had a plan for Surya, Starc said, “I cannot say if I have thought it that way (as to) who is the batter at the other end. For me, the plan does not change if it is a left-hander or a right-hander, I am still trying to bowl fast and swing it and hit the stumps,” he said.
Starc said there were no specific plans against the Indian right-handers. “My plan has not changed for 13 years, which is to bowl full at the stumps and try to swing it in. I think that has just been my role to try and take wickets upfront in the powerplay and that means that I tend to bowl fuller lengths than some other guys like Cameron Green or Pat (Cummins) or Josh (Hazlewood),” he said.
“At times that means I am more expensive but I am trying for a dismissal, so certainly (did) not (have) a new game plan in the last two games. It is something that I have done for a long time, be aggressive and take wickets and, today, our whole bowling attack did that, when we had six wickets in the powerplay.
“That is a big step forward in one-day cricket, when you have a powerhouse batting unit like India have. If you can take wickets in the powerplay that means you can control the game to some respect,” Starc added.
The Australian pace spearhead said the side was focused on winning the series in in Chennai and it was not too much obsessed with ODI World Cup preparations right now.
“A few of us have been here to get accustomed to conditions. With one eye on the World Cup in particular conditions and against India, that is one by-product of the series,” he said.
“This is still (an ongoing) series against India, which we want to win. We move to Chennai for the decider which is exciting. Once we are past that game there will be more focus on the World Cup. (There are) parts of the series with the World Cup on your mind but predominantly for this group, there is a chance to win a one-day in India which is pretty special,” he concluded.

APTECH Row: Why Blacklisted Agencies Are Allowed in Kashmir Only? DPAP Patron GN Azad

[ad_1]
Suhail Khan
Sopore, Mar 15 (GNS): Amid growing resentment and widespread protests by the JKSSB aspirants over latter’s purported hiring of ‘blacklisted’ APTECH company for conducting written examinations for recruitment to various posts, Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) patron Ghulam Nabi Azad on Wednesday questioned as to why the authorities are allowing blacklisted agencies to conduct exams in Jammu and Kashmir?
Speaking to media on the sidelines of a function in Sopore village, Azad, as per GNS, alleged that all the recruitment agencies in Jammu and Kashmir choose to conduct exams through the companies which otherwise have already been rejected and blacklisted by many states. “The trend to hire such companies has resulted in the postponement of exams many times in the last 5 years, something that hasn’t happened in the last 75 years.”
“At a time when thousands of youth are facing trouble in getting jobs, it is beyond one’s understanding as to why the authorities are hiring these blacklisted companies and end up putting the careers of youth on stake” Azad said adding ironically why such blacklisted agencies are being allowed in J&K only.
“The government should properly investigate such agencies for the sake of the careers of youth”, he said.
Pertinently, several political leaders, cutting across the party lines have backed the protests by job aspirants and have sought disallowance of the APTECH Company to hold any exams in Jammu and Kashmir. (GNS)

Sale Of Jobs Not Allowed In Jk Anymore: LG Sinha On JKSSB Controversy

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Taking a jibe at the mainstream parties that ruled JK over the past seven decades, Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha Monday said that those who gave jobs to militants and their family members have no right to talk about “fair recruitment.”
Addressing the function regarding laying of foundation stones of various projects related to Jammu Smart City at Jammu Convention Centre, LG Sinha said that many people don’t want fair recruitment to take place in the UT.
“Those who gave jobs to militants and their family members are raising fingers at the ongoing recruitment processes. These people have no right to do so,” the LG said, adding that “one lakh backdoor appointments were made by these people have made it difficult the administration.”
The LG said that the SSB recruitment issue was raised and complaints were found true after which the administration handed over the case to the country’s premier investigating agency—CBI.
“CBI is still probing the case and so far many arrests have been made. No matter how influential the people involved in the fake recruitments and irregularities, they won’t be spared at all,” he said.
He said that people should remain assured that strict action will be taken against those who are found in irregularities or any other misconduct in the SSB exams.
“Gone are the days when jobs were sold on roads and shops. Jobs will be given to those who have competence and the process of all recruitments will be fair and transparent,” the LG said.
He said that if anyone feels or sees any sort of misconduct in any exam or recruitment process, the same should be brought to the notice of the administration. “I assure a very strict action will be taken against those found involved,” he said.

He said a series of developmental projects are being taken up in Jammu under the Smart City Project. “The face of Jammu will change and the people of Jammu will feel a great and big change in the days and months ahead. The life of Jammuites will be made safe, secure and hassle free through the huge developmental activities that are under way at present,” he said. (KNO)
