Amid the leaked obscene videos of girls from Chandigarh University, another such case has come to light from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay. A canteen worker is alleged to have recorded a video of girls outside the IIT Bombay Hostel 10 (H-10) toilet.

Now, the accused has been arrested for peeping on a resident in the toilet. The incident took place on Sunday.

According to the reports, the student raised an alarm after she noticed someone peeping into the toilet through window slits. Soon after, the Dean and SA Dean entered the premises, but they couldn’t see the CCTV footage from outside the hostel building because it was damaged.

The students of IIT Bombay said the canteen was closed on Sunday due to pest control work, but workers were present on the hostel premises. Some of the hostel’s wings include toilets with windows that look like a platform-like area with pipes coming up from the bottom floor.

As only men were present in the hostel building, they were the first ones to get interrogated. Five staff members run the night canteen from 3 pm to 3:30 am. During interrogation at the Powai Police Station, one of them was arrested under 354c of the IPC. The accused is 22 years old.

The worker was able to stand and take the recording because the toilet in that particular wing of the H10 hostel is connected to a tiny platform that juts from the building. The canteen worker reportedly climbed up a pipe to access this platform.

Even though the institute has shut down the canteen, students have sought increased security on campus and reforms, particularly in the design of the bathrooms, to ensure that such instances don’t occur again.

The institute has taken steps to avoid these kinds of incidents in the near future. In a statement, the institute said that the gaps in the ducts, which may have been used by the suspects, have been closed. The institute has also installed a new CCTV camera outside the H10 girls’ hostel building. The canteen will reopen only if staffed exclusively by women.

In the initial investigation, the police officials did not find any recording. However, the case has been registered against him. Further investigations are underway.

Another such incident happened on the first of September in IIT Madras where a canteen employee at a hostel was arrested for assaulting a woman student.

Devendra Fadnavis takes oath as Maharashtra CM, Eknath Shinde, Ajit Pawar as Deputy CMs

In a grand ceremony at Azad Maidan in Mumbai, Devendra Fadnavis took oath as the chief minister of Maharashtra on Thursday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi attended the ceremony, which also saw Ajit Pawar from the NCP and former CM Eknath Shinde from Shiv Sena taking oath as deputy chief ministers.

Maharashtra governor C P Radhakrishnan administered the oath. This is Devendra Fadnavis’s third term. He represents Nagpur as an MLA, and has assumed the role of Maharashtra chief minister. The event takes place two weeks after the state assembly elections held on November 20, with results announced on November 23.

Beside PM Modi, Union home minister Amit Shah, defence minister Rajnath Singh, Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath, Bihar CM Nitish Kumar, BJP president J P Nadda were among the political heavyweights present during the event.

Also, the oath-taking ceremony was attended by prominent industrialists, including Mukesh Ambani and Kumar Mangalam Birla. Former cricketer Sachin Tendulkar and actors Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, and Ranveer Singh were also present at the event.

In the State Assembly Elections, the BJP emerged as the largest party with 132 seats in the 288-member House. Along with its allies, Shiv Sena and NCP, the BJP-led Mahayuti coalition has a majority of 230 seats.

On Wednesday, Devendra Fadnavis, Eknath Shinde, and Sharad Pawar met governor CP Radhakrishnan to formally stake their claim to form the government, submitting letters of support from the coalition. Subsequently, the governor invited Devendra Fadnavis to lead the new government.

Notably, the new government formation comes after two weeks of intense negotiations between parties within the Mahayuti alliance, which emphatically won the Maharashtra assembly elections.

Meanwhile, on being asked when other ministers would take oath, BJP leader Sudhir Mungantiwar said that it is most likely that the council of ministers will be sworn in before the winter session of the assembly starts, so as to avoid administrative disruption.

Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath draws parallel between Ayodhya, Sambhal and Bangladesh violence, says same DNA

Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath draws parallel between Ayodhya, Sambhal and Bangladesh violence, says same DNA

Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Yogi Adityanath today said that what is happening in Bangladesh now is the same as what Mughal ruler Babur’s army did in Ayodhya and Sambhal. While speaking at the inauguration ceremony of the 43rd Ramayan Mela in Ayodhya, the Chief Minister said that Lord Ram united the whole society.

He said that if they had given importance to unity and not let the strategy of the nation’s enemies succeed in creating social animosity, this country would have never become a slave. He continued that the pilgrimages would not have become impure, adding that a handful of invaders would not have dared to invade the country and would be crushed by India’s brave soldiers.

Yogi Adityanath further said that those who created difficulties within the society managed to succeed, adding that their genes remain the same to this day. Apparently taking a jibe at the opposition, he said that those who indulge in caste-based politics to shatter the social fabric are still active.

He added that 500 years ago, a general of Babur committed certain deeds in Ayodhya, similar acts taking place in Sambhal, and what is happening today in Bangladesh. The nature and DNA of all three are the same, he continued.

He mentioned that divisive elements are there already, tearing apart the social fabric and breaking social unity. He added that many such divisive forces have bought properties across the world. He said that when a crisis happens in India, those forces flee to their places in other countries and leave behind the citizens here to suffer and die.

Nonetheless, CM Yogi’s remark is drawing ire from the opposition. Congress MP Tariq Anwar told the media that a chief minister cannot speak such language. He said that it is shocking to see such a senior leader of BJP and CM of Uttar Pradesh speaking such language to divide the society.
