[ad_1]
New Delhi: AAP national spokesperson Saurabh Bharadwaj on Wednesday alleged that party leader Manish Sisodia is being kept with other inmates in jail and has been refused the Vipassana’ cell.
“There was a request for Manish Sisodia to be kept in the vipasana cell of the jail and the same was approved by the court. Despite the court’s approval, Sisodia has been kept with criminals in jail number 1. The Centre must give the answer,” Bharadwaj said.
Sisodia, the former Delhi deputy chief minister and an accused in the excise policy scam, is lodged in a Tihar prison cell for senior citizens.
Officials had earlier said that Sisodia will be lodged inside Tihar Jail Number-1 which is meant for a single person who is a senior citizen.
The court had allowed the senior leader of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) to carry the Bhagavad Gita, spectacles and medicines to jail, and directed the Tihar authorities to consider his request to be allowed to do Vipassana meditation.

The bench has listed the matter for the next hearing on May 17.
Ajay Gautam’s PIL alleges that there have been rampant incidents of cow slaughtering in Delhi despite a large number of policemen here.

It is the petitioner’s case that people from Mewat or Nuhu district in Haryana, kidnap cows from the roads, farms or dairies in the capital and take them for slaugtering.
“These places are infamous for cow slaughters,” it says.
The petitioner has shown displeasure stating that witnessing incidents of ill-treatment and torture to cows becomes intolerable for people who reveres cow as “his mother”.

“Sometimes situation goes out of control,” the plea adds.
“In many cases, Gau Saveks raided the crime site before the police and resulted in conflict/clash reported between cow smugglers and cow saveks.. That Impounding of vehicles transporting cow meat is a very common occurrence. It is submitted that due to above reasons/incidents communal tension also increase and resulted in communal harmony disturb,” the plea states.
According to the Delhi police Act, 1978, the Police is empowered to make special cell or unit for the protection of cows to avoid conflict between cow smugglers and cow sewaka, the petition reads.
“Cows are the goddesses of the gods and the refuge of all auspiciousness. Cows bestow every kind of happiness and for this reason they always are worshipable. Cows are the support of all the worlds for by their milk they nourish terrestrial beings and by their ghee offered in the sacrifice they nourish the denizens of the celestial realms. Nothing superior to cows,” the plea states.

Canada will block access to TikTok from official cell phones

[ad_1]
The Canadian government will ban, starting Tuesday (28), federal employees from using the Chinese app TikTok on official cell phones as it poses an “unacceptable” risk to their privacy and security.
Mona Fortier, chair of the Treasury Board of Canada, the public body charged with overseeing federal employees, said in a statement that effective February 28, the app will be removed from all official cell phones.
“Users of these devices will also be blocked from downloading the app in the future. After an analysis of TikTok, the Director of Information Systems Canada has determined that it poses an unacceptable level of privacy and security risk.”
Fortier justified the measure because TikTok’s data entry and collection methods “provide considerable access to the contents of the phone”.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told a news conference that while the government wants to respect Canadians’ right to freedom of expression, there are also “very important principles about data protection and security for Canadians”.
“Like many countries around the world, we are carefully considering how to ensure Canadians’ safety online. And the decision is that it is best that government teams and workers do not have access to TikTok due to security concerns,” added Trudeau.
The premier also mused that other Canadians have considered the risk TikTok poses to their security “and perhaps” will act accordingly.
Likewise, Trudeau opened the door for the government to take more measures to ensure the security of official apparatus.

The ban on the use of TikTok on official Canadian cell phones comes a few days after the European Union adopted a similar measure. The United States has already banned the use of the application on official cell phones in 2022.
