A group of girls formed a human-chain and staged a sit-in to block the Jaipur-Bharatpur highway in the wake of molestation and assault of a 22-year-old girl in Jaipur.

Some miscreants had stopped a girl in the middle of the road and started molesting her. When she protested, they hit her with a bottle of liquor on her head. Following this, many girls of the hostel came out on the road, amidst heavy rainfall and blocked the Jaipur-Bharatpur highway.

The incident is said to have happened on Saturday night and the victim girl was heading towards her hostel from the library, when she was molested and beaten up. Three miscreants riding bikes blocked her way.

They snatched her mobile, tore her clothes and forced her to sit on the bike with them. Resisting their action, when the girl made noise, one of the miscreants hit her with a bottle of liquor on her head. When the girl starts to bleed, the miscreants flee from the spot, leaving her in an injured condition in the middle of the road, reports said.

Upon receiving information about the incident, hundreds of girls from her hostel reached the spot and sent the injured girl to hospital. There was tremendous outrage among all the girls including the hostel warden regarding the incident. In no time, the girls blocked the Jaipur-Bharatpur highway, resulting in a traffic jam on the highway, the reports say.

Kanota police said that they tried to convince the girls to return to their hostel, but in spite of the heavy rainfall, the girls stood firm on their stance and formed a human chain to block the highway. The police forcibly dragged the girls out of the way. The whole matter calmed down around 10 pm.

The girls have alleged that such flagitious incidents have happened around the hostel earlier as well. In this regard, they have written several times to the Kanota police. Neither the policemen were deployed near the area, nor there is any fear of police among the offenders, they say.

In Wayanad, Rahul Gandhi says protecting Constitution is India’s primary battle

He emphasised that such a mindset represents the kind of politics needed in India—not one of animosity but one of love and kindness.

Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi asserted on Sunday that the primary struggle in the country today is to safeguard and preserve the Constitution. He emphasised that the Constitution was crafted not from hatred but with humility and affection.

“The primary struggle taking place is for our Constitution. The greatness and protection we enjoy stem from it,” he stated during a corner meeting in Mananthavady, part of the campaign for his sister, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who is contesting the Wayanad Lok Sabha bypoll.

Rahul explained that the Constitution was not born from anger or animosity but enacted by those who battled colonial rule, endured suffering, and spent many years in prison. They created the Constitution with love and humility, he added.

The Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha emphasised that this struggle represents a fight between love and hatred. “It is a fight between confidence and insecurity. To prevail in this battle, we must eliminate anger and hatred from our hearts and replace them with love, humility, and compassion,” he added.

The former Congress president also reflected on his sister’s compassionate actions, sharing a poignant memory. “She is someone who embraced the girl implicated in my father’s assassination. When she returned from meeting Nalini, she expressed her sorrow for her,” he recalled.

He emphasised that such a mindset represents the kind of politics needed in India—not one of animosity but one of love and kindness.

During her campaign, Priyanka Gandhi took the opportunity to criticise the central government, claiming that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is solely serving the interests of large business magnates.

“The Modi government prioritises his wealthy friends. Its agenda does not focus on improving your quality of life, creating jobs for educated youth, or enhancing healthcare and education,” she contended.

Priyanka continued her campaign activities by engaging in public and corner meetings alongside Rahul in the hilly constituency.

Jammu & Kashmir CM Omar Abdullah condemns grenade attack near Sunday market in Srinagar

According to reports, at least six people were injured when terrorists threw a grenade in a crowded flea market in the heart of the city.

Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on November 3 condemned the grenade attack near a busy Sunday market in Srinagar and said there could be no justification for targeting innocent civilians.

According to reports, at least six people were injured when terrorists threw a grenade in a crowded flea market in the heart of the city. The injured have been shifted to Shri Maharaja Hari Singh Hospital (SMHS).

In a post on X, Abdullah said the last few days have been dominated by headlines of attacks and encounters in parts of the valley. “Today’s news of a grenade attack on innocent shoppers at the ‘Sunday market’ in Srinagar is deeply disturbing,” he added.

The security apparatus must do everything possible to end this spurt of attacks at the earliest so that people can go about their lives without any fear, the Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister said.

The incident took place near the heavily guarded Tourist Reception Centre (TRC), occurring one day following the elimination of a top Pakistani commander of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) by security forces in the Khanyar locality of downtown Srinagar.

Authorities have dispatched police and paramilitary forces to the scene to evacuate the injured and initiate a search operation for the terrorists. The explosion triggered panic in the area, causing shoppers to scramble for cover.

Meanwhile, Congress leader Ravinder Sharma said that this was a conspiracy to disturb the atmosphere in the valley. Such incidents have increased ever since elections have been held and the new government has been formed, he claimed. He prayed for the well-being of those injured in the attack.

Calling for strict actions, the Congress leader said such attacks prove that the militancy is still there in the valley, adding the central government has the entire law and order and security apparatus in its hand.
