[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Two persons including a police inspector died in violence that flared up in Shyana area of Bulandshahr district in Uttar Pradesh during protests over alleged cow slaughter.
Media reports quoting a senior Uttar Pradesh police officer said the incident took place around a little before 11 noon. The officer said some people had earlier complained about a case of cow slaughter in the forested area near the village. “On this information, the police and executive magistrate reached the spot,” the officer was quoted as saying.
But for some reason, the people started getting agitated over the lack of what they perceived was inadequate police action and started loading the remnants of the animals in their tractors.
The officer, Inspector Subodh Kumar Singh, was killed in firing when the mob, throwing stones, took on the police who had arrived to restore law and order. Another policeman, a constable, is in a serious condition.
The mob of villagers, numbering around 300-400 reached the police station, UP’s additional director general of police Anand Kumar told NDTV. They attacked a police station, setting a police van to fire.
While the situation is tense, a heavy police force has been deployed in the area to restore peace.
A Special Investigation Team has been formed to investigate the cow slaughter and the mob violence, reported NDTV. Security has been bolstered in the area with five companies of Rapid Action Force and six companies of Provincial Armed Constabulary.
“One police inspector has been killed and police is being mobilised to Bulandshahr after clashes in the area,” Civil Lines (Aligarh) police official told indianexpress.com. The killed police officer has been identified as Inspector Subodh Verma, who was injured in the attack and was declared brought dead in the hospital.
According to the District Magistrate, protests in the area began after people found the alleged carcass of a cow in the field and blocked a road in the area. Upon receiving the information the police reached the spot and tried to get the roads open when some unwanted elements started pelting stones and attacked the police party. During the protest, police opened fire to scatter the crowd following which the mob attacked the police station. The mob vandalised the station while setting arson to police vehicles.

The police say they are trying to divert vehicles from the area to ease tensions.
The news follows reports highlighting communal harmony between Hindus and Muslims, seen in opening up a Shiv Mandir to let Muslims offer namaz. There were several celebratory messages and reports about this and tweets like this were seen on social media: “Namaz in Shiv temple Premises. Bulandshahr Hindu Samaj sets an example by allowing Muslims to perform Namaz in Hindu temple as large gathering of Community gathered for Tablighi Ijtima in town”
This apparently did not suit some elements and the present problem was likely a result of this. There were attempts to further inflame communal passions, with posts on social media linking it to a Muslim program of Ijtema and Bulandshahr police had to ask people to desist from spreading hateful propaganda.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]

India is on track to become the country with the second-largest metro rail network in the world after China, with Union Minister Manohar Lal saying the country could overtake the United States within the next two years.
India’s metro rail network has now expanded to 1,170 km across 26 cities. The network is only 216 km shorter than the US metro rail network, which stands at 1,386 km, according to figures cited by the minister.
India’s metro network expands rapidly
Speaking after the inauguration of an extended metro service in Indore, Manohar Lal highlighted the pace at which metro connectivity has grown in India.
He said metro services were operational across just 245 km in five cities when Prime Minister Narendra Modi assumed office in 2014. The network has since expanded to 1,170 km across 26 cities.
The minister said India could overtake the US in terms of metro rail network length in the next two years and become the world’s second-largest country in this segment after China.
China currently has around 8,000 km of metro rail lines, according to the figures cited by the minister.
Indore metro extension inaugurated
The minister made the remarks after inaugurating an extended section of the Indore metro. The project was built at a cost of around Rs 2,850 crore.
The Indore metro was earlier operating commercially on a six-km stretch between Gandhi Nagar and Super Corridor-3 stations. Following the extension, the service will operate on a 17-km route between Gandhi Nagar and Malviya Nagar Chauraha.
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav said the metro service would mark a new phase in Indore’s development. He also said the network would eventually be extended to Ujjain and other nearby areas.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi returned to Delhi University’s Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC) on Saturday, 13 years after his previous visit to the institution as Gujarat chief minister.
His latest visit came as SRCC marked its centenary celebrations. Modi’s 2013 address at the college had attracted significant attention as he spoke about India’s youth, governance and the country’s demographic potential.
In 2013, Modi was Gujarat chief minister and had not yet been named the BJP’s prime ministerial candidate. He returned to the same campus this year as Prime Minister, having completed 12 years as Prime Minister and serving his third consecutive term.
What PM Modi said at SRCC in 2013
The 2013 lecture was titled Emerging Business Models in the Global Scenario. The address also covered governance and India’s young population.
He described India’s youth as a source of national strength rather than simply a group of new-age voters. He also highlighted India’s demographic advantage and argued that the country needed to make better use of its young population.
One of the notable moments from the speech involved a glass of water. Modi contrasted the conventional descriptions of a glass as half full or half empty and said he viewed it as full, with half containing water and the other half air.
The speech also included his remarks on technology and young Indians. Referring to an anecdote from a visit to Taiwan, Modi used the phrase “mouse-charmers” to describe Indians using computers and suggested that young Indians had the ability to influence the world through technology.
‘Minimum government, maximum governance’
Modi’s 2013 address also touched on governance. He spoke about the role of government and the need for better governance.
He also spoke about India’s potential in the 21st century.
Modi returns as PM for SRCC centenary
The September 5 visit coincided with Teachers’ Day and SRCC’s 100th anniversary. The Prime Minister’s Office had announced that Modi would participate in the college’s centenary celebrations and address the gathering. SRCC was established in 1926 by industrialist and philanthropist Sir Shri Ram.
Earlier this year, Modi also met the SRCC governing body at his residence in April in connection with the college’s centenary celebrations and released a commemorative postage stamp marking the occasion.
The return to SRCC came 13 years after his 2013 appearance at the college, when he addressed students as Gujarat chief minister.

Supreme Court judge calls police assault on CJP protesters very distressing
Supreme Court judge Justice Ujjal Bhuyan criticised alleged police assaults on CJP protesters and raised concerns over excessive force.

Supreme Court judge Justice Ujjal Bhuyan has criticised the assault of protesters by police personnel during the recent CJP demonstrations in Delhi, describing the conduct as “very, very distressing” and a matter of serious concern.
Speaking at the launch of retired IPS officer Yashovardhan Azad’s book Policing the Republic, Justice Bhuyan said the detachment expected from police officers appeared to be diminishing.
He expressed concern over young Indian Police Service officers personally participating in the assault of protesters and demonstrators.
Justice Bhuyan stresses need for responsible policing
Justice Bhuyan said effective policing does not require excessive use of force or infringement of human rights. He emphasised that the police play an important role in maintaining public confidence because citizens generally approach the police when they feel they have been wronged.
He said maintaining the credibility of the police force was therefore of “utmost importance”.
The judge’s remarks come amid continuing scrutiny of the police and paramilitary response to the CJP protests in Delhi.
Supreme Court panel to examine police action
The Supreme Court has constituted a high-level panel to investigate allegations concerning the use of force by Delhi Police during the July 20 student protests at Jantar Mantar and the subsequent Parliament march.
The panel, headed by former Supreme Court judge Justice R Subhash Reddy, will examine complaints relating to lathi charges, tear gas, pellet guns and electronic batons. It will also look into allegations of targeted harassment or molestation of female protesters and review available CCTV and video footage.
The police response during the protests has faced criticism, while Delhi Police has maintained that its personnel were also attacked during the clashes.
Judge raises concern over custodial deaths and torture
Justice Bhuyan also spoke about custodial torture and deaths, describing custodial death as one of the gravest crimes in a society governed by the rule of law.
He stressed that torture and cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment cannot be accepted, regardless of whether such conduct takes place during investigation, interrogation or other circumstances.
The judge further warned that when government functionaries themselves become lawbreakers, it can undermine respect for the law and encourage lawlessness.
He questioned whether citizens lose their fundamental rights simply because they have been arrested by police.
‘Fake encounters’ cannot be part of policing
Justice Bhuyan also addressed allegations of extra-judicial killings, commonly referred to as “fake encounters”. Referring to a 2011 Supreme Court judgment, he said such encounters undermine the rule of law.
He stressed that an “encounter philosophy” cannot become part of legitimate policing and said proven fake encounters involving serving police officers must be treated with the utmost seriousness.
The Supreme Court’s panel will now examine the allegations surrounding the police action during the July 20 protests as scrutiny of the events continues.
