Husband sets wife afire as she refuses to cook eggs for him

By Dheeraj Fartode
A housewife was allegedly torched by her hubby after she refused to cook eggs. The incident occurred on Friday night and the injured women succumbed to injuries at Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH).

The incident was reported from Shikshak Colony under jurisdiction of Butibori police station around 7.30 pm. The accused is identified as Kailash Pandurang Yedamewar (34). A habitual drunkard, Yedamewar arrived home in inebriated condition. He directed wife, Shubhangi too cook eggs to which latter objected, as she was strict vegetarian.

A quarrel ensued between the duo and soon took the turn for worse when the hubby threatened to kill her. Frustrated with this daily trouble, Shubhangi sprinkled kerosene over herself and challenged her husband to kill her. In the heat of the moment Yedamewar lit a matchstick and set his wife alight. Hell broke loose and hearing wild cries of Shubhangi, Yedamewar got frightened and took to his heels. Neighbours rushed in and managed to douse the flames off Shubhangi.

Staff of Butibori police station arrived at the spot and rushed Shubhangi to GMCH, where she succumbed to burn injuries in wee hours of Saturday, stated Inspector Digamber Chavan.
In a complaint, filed by Premlal Mangal Wakamwar (44), (uncle of Shubhangi), he claimed that Kailash would case aspersion on Shubhangi and used to torture her.

PI Chavan added that the relationship between the couple was almost broken and quarrels were regular. Yedamewar was a native of Kinhi village of Yavatmal district and he married Shubhangi around nine years ago. The couple have a  six-year-old daughter. On the basis of dying declaration of Shubhangi, cops have registered a case under sections 498(A) and 302 of Indian Penal Code and arrested Kailash Yedamewar. Further investigations are on.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

IGP Mallikarjuna Prasanna By Dheeraj Fartode  Published on Feb/17/2019 NOT many are aware of an episode during the then US President Barack Obama’s visit to India in 2010. The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script also ha

Longest cable-stayed bridge to boost tourism at Ambhora

CONSTRUCTION work of 700-metre-long cable-stayed bridge, longest in the country, with a viewing gallery at the top at Ambhora in Kuhi tehsil is near completion. The bridge would be open for traffic in December this year providing a major boost to tourism at Shree Chaitanyeshwar Mahadev temple at Ambhora. It is set to open doors of development for the backward area of Kuhi and Umred tehsil. Ambhora, located 75 km from Nagpur city, is a famous religious and tourist place in Vidarbha. It is situated at the confluence of five rivers -- Wainganga, Kanhan, Aam, Kolari and Murza. Just around a decade ago the river bank housing Ambhora used to see a flux of tourists from all over the State. However, the banks were submerged in water after the construction of Gosikhurd dam which led to rise in water levels. Since then, tourist flow at Ambhora has also declined. However, now with the construction of the new bridge tourists will get a chance see the scenic backwaters across the river bed which is
