Farmers call off Karnal protest as Haryana government orders judicial inquiry against IAS officer Ayush Sinha

Farmers agitating against the three farm laws called off their protests in Karnal district of Haryana on Saturday, nearly a week after they laid siege to the town and district in pursuit of proper punishment to the now suspended Sub-Divisional Magistrate Ayush Sinha, who had been caught on video telling police to crack the heads of farmers.

This evening, talks held in the presence of ADC Devendra Singh and farmer representatives, a bilateral agreement was reached on three demands. It was decided that a retired High Court judge will investigate the lathicharge case involving Ayush Sinha, who will go on leave during the investigation to be conducted over a month. Two members of the family of late farmer Sushil Kajal will be given jobs in a week. These agreements were reached after three earlier meetings failed.

Both the state government and protesters agreed that an inquiry will be held against IAS officer Ayush Sinha, till then he will have to remain on the leave. On September 1, Sinha was transferred out of Karnal as part of a reshuffle in the district administration.

Devendra Singh confirmed that the farmers have called off their protests. Singh said a judicial inquiry will be conducted into the lathicharge on August 28 and will be completed within a month.

On August 28, Haryana Police lathicharged farmers blocking a highway on their way to Karnal to protest against Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar. At that time SDM Ayush Sinha was in charge and was caught on camera making controversial comments which led to violence. Over 10 protesters were injured whereas one farmer Sushil Kajal succumbed to his accidents as a result of a police motion.

The farmers have been revitalised by the Muzaffarnagar mahapanchayat in Uttar Pradesh on September 5 when farmer leaders including Rakesh Tikait and Gurnam Chaduni hosted a lakhs-strong show of strength. The farmer leaders announced that they will not henceforth leave room for Hindu-Muslim polarization.

Muzaffarnagar is also the infamous region where anti-Muslim riots in 2013, which left 62 people dead, saw the BJP find a new pocket of influence among the Jats of Western Uttar Pradesh, who had been alienated from their traditional political party, the Lok Dal of Charan Singh and his son, the now deceased, Ajit Singh.

In an accident, six children were killed and as many as 15 injured after a private school bus carrying them lost control and overturned in the Kanina area of Mahendragarh district in Haryana on Thursday.

After the incident, students were rushed to the Nihal Hospital in Mahendragarh district in the State.

Doctor Ravi Kaushik of Nihal Hospital in Mahendragarh said that four students were brought dead and one critical student who was put on a ventilator passed away at the hospital. Fifteen injured students have been referred to another hospital. SDM and administration were present, he added.

According to officials, a private school bus carrying 40 children was en route to school despite a holiday for Eid-ul-Fitr. The bus belonged to GL Public School, a private school in the district.

Officials stated that the accident near Unhani village in the district resulted in injuries for several others. Following the accident, a large group of people assembled at the site.

According to District Education Officer, the driver was probably under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident. Police have said that the investigation into the matter is still on.

Official documents show that the bus’ fitness certificate had expired six years ago in 2018, as per the report.

A student, who suffered injuries after a private school bus met with an accident in Mahendragarh’s Kanina, said that the driver was drunk and he kept the speed at 120 which led to a misbalance.

Speaking to reporters, the Mahendragarh District Collector Monika Gupta said that it has come to notice that this was a private school which was being run even on a holiday and action will be taken. Six casualties have been reported, she added. Treatment of the injured children is going on. Now there is no danger to anyone’s life. The government is providing them with the best possible treatment. There was also a lack of documents in the vehicle, so an FIR is being lodged against the school administration as well, Gupta further said.

According to reports, the incident has left people in shock, which took place at the Chandravati School in the Tauru area in Nuh district on March 6. It was reported that the paper had been allegedly leaked shortly after the commencement of the board exam.  

Taking cognisance of the matter, the District Education Officer Paramjeet Chahal said that he had come across the video and said some newspaper cuttings that some children had climbed up the roof of a school. He further said that he had asked for a report regarding it.

The incident has sparked widespread condemnation from people. The locals were alarmed by the blatant disregard for examination protocols and captured the event, which prompted an immediate response from education authorities. As a result, an investigation was ordered to identify the individuals involved, and officials have vowed to take stringent action against those found guilty of facilitating cheating for students.

This incident has also prompted a reassessment of security measures at examination centres and the Haryana School Education Department needs to implement more robust mechanisms to prevent similar incidents in the future.

Last year in February, an incident from Bihar’s Samastipur got the attention of the people where students were reportedly helped by their relatives to cheat during an exam in Sant Kabir College. The video of the incident was viral on the internet and became a hot discussion in the country.

The alleged relatives of the students were seen holding out their phones through the channel gate in order to show the students the right answer. Not only one but a large crowd of people were seen standing outside the channel gate to help the students cheat.
