The Delhi Police on Sunday cleared the protest area occupied by protesting wrestlers in Jantar Mantar after detaining several wrestlers, including women, on their march to the new Parliament building which was being inaugurated at that time.

The wrestlers had called for a mahila samman mahapanchayat with support from farmers and khap panchayats from various states. With Delhi Police declaring the area around Parliament a no-go zone in view of the ceremonies there today, the wrestlers were not allowed to proceed on their march from Jantar Mantar.

The wrestlers, Vinesh Phogat, Sakshi Malik and Bajrang Punia, were detained at Jantar Mantar when the protesters tried to clear the barricades and ended up breaking them.

Videos on Twitter showed a brawl between protesters and Delhi Police personnel as the latter tried to break up the altercation. A woman police officer can be seen taking a woman away from the protest scene in one of the videos.

Unfazed, Punia declared the mahapanchayat will take place today without fail. He said the wrestlers would continue their struggle for their self-respect. The Olympian bronze medallist said the Modi government was destroying democracy on the very same day it was inaugurating a new Parliament. He urged the authorities to free protesters who had been detained by police.

The borders into Delhi had been shut since the morning over the mahapanchayat timing with the Parliament inauguration. Traffic jams were legion along the peripheries of the city as farmers in tractors were refused entry into Delhi, leading to a long pile-up of traffic.

The wrestlers have been on protest since April 23 seeking action against Wrestling Federation of India chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, the MP from Kaiserganj and a UP strongman, for sexually harassing women athletes.

The wrestlers have won widespread support from farmers who have now stepped in to seek justice for the exploited women.

May 28 saw a symphony of events with the grand inauguration of the new Parliament building, the “Man Ki Baat” address on this special day and Veer Savarkar Jayanti.

On the occasion of the 101st Mann Ki Baat program, after the inauguration of the new Parliament building on May 28, 2023, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the nation, emphasizing on the significance of the day. Speaking about Veer Savarkar Jayanti, he remembered the patriotic contributions of Veer Savarkar and his dedication to India’s freedom struggle.

PM Modi also reiterated the iconic slogan “Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan, Jai Vigyan, Jai Anusandhan,” honoring soldiers, farmers, scientists, and researchers. Looking towards the future, he expressed that the next 25 years hold immense importance for the nation’s progress and urged all citizens to contribute to shaping India’s destiny. PM Modi’s address reflected his leadership and his commitment to the holistic development of the country.

On the occasion of Veer Savarkar Jayanti on May 28, 2023, several ministers, including PM Modi, Nitin Gadkari, Dr Harsh Vardhan, Devendra Fadnavis, S Jaishankar, and others, took to Twitter to pay their tributes to the freedom fighter.

A video of a Boeing 757-200  aircraft pulling  a dangerously low fly pass is going viral across Internet.

In a viral video, a plane which was about to land in the runway diverted taking a steep left turn after it missed approach, while it was at a very low distance from the ground. The viral plane is said to Argentina President’s Alberto Fernandez new air transport machine.

The plane later circled back and landed safely.

As per reports, the plane was being flown by pilots flying ‘ARG 01’ a special  757-200 configured for VVIP use and will be used by President Fernandez.

The flight took off from Miami in USA and was on its maiden entry to the Argentina airport on May 25, when the incident took place.

Some reports said, that as the pilots flew it all the way from the US, the fatigue of the pilot may be a factor for pulling off this stunt.

The video has now taken all over the internet gathering mixed reactions to it. While some aviation enthusiasts were thrilled by the performance, some criticised the act.

A user found the sound of the engine that throttled up just before the turn to be very cool. While another user asked if that was safe to do or not?

A user in Spanish said a complete irresponsibility of the ones responsible  for this action .

Another user called it to be an incredible low pass.

The Presidential aircraft is said to have a capacity of carrying 39 passengers onboard, the plane has a master suite and two bedrooms inside it, said reports.
