By Dheeraj Fartode Shocking allegations of misconduct have emerged against a police officer in Nagpur City Police. The officer is accused of abusive and degrading behaviour, particularly targeting accused in Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. Sources claim that the senior officer arrives at the police station and calls the accused into a separate room, where the officer not only hurls abuse at the accused but also spits at their face. Later, the officer allegedly kicks the accused in the private parts. In some incidents, when a couple approached a police station in Nagpur to file a complaint following a domestic dispute, the police sent a proposal for preventive action to the officer. However, instead of handling the matter professionally, the officer allegedly made the man sit down, then kicked him in the private parts and leave him in pain and humiliation. The behaviour of the high ranked official have raised questions about the professionalism of law enforcemen...

Accusing government of anti-farmers policy ex-chief of Army staff General V K Singh, on Saturday, exhorted farmers to unite and change the system.
Addressing a farmers’ gathering under the banner of Kisan Manch at Morbhavan, Singh said, “Government is giving a step-motherly treatment to farmers. Farmers should be aware of such political leaders and not vote for them in the upcoming elections.”
National President of Kisan Manch Vinod Singh, Pratap Goswami, Central General Secretary of Nag Vidarbha Andolan Samiti, Ahmed Kadar and others were present on the dais. Singh blamed wrong government policies for last 65 years for rising debts on farmers. “Government cannot protect the interest of farmers. It cannot give justice to farmers. Price of fertilisers keeps increasing each year. There is a farmer’s suicide every hour,” said Singh.
The former Army chief accused the government of being pro-industrialists and anti-farmer. “This subsidy on fertilisers is not for farmers, it is to benefit industries. If industries are deciding rates of their products then why farmers have no right to decide minimum support price (MSP) of farm products,” Singh asked.
Training his guns on Maharashtra Government Singh said that the government was using water from Vidarbha’s irrigation projects for sugarcane farming and power projects instead of region’s farmers. Singh also targetted land acquisition policies and said that these policies should be reviewed and restructured for farmers, not for industries.
He appealed to the farmers to unite and fight for their future. “Don’t fall prey to political leaders’ ‘Divide and Rule’ policy. It is just to grab votes,” Singh urged. Singh also cautioned farmers against opting for BT cotton. “Farmers have forgotten their ‘Desi’ breed of cotton and adopting BT cotton model. It has created water scarcity in the region,” he claimed.
Singh charged Rahul Gandhi with using the name of Kalawati for political mileage. “Kalawati remained empty handed even after hitting headlines of national newspapers,” he said. He added that all MLAs from Vidarbha were involved in corruption which has rendered the Vidarbha package as useless.
