DCP spits and assaults accused in custody

By
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...

Traffic police to check driving license in schools and colleges..Beware!

By

  • Many students, who do not have driving license, drive vehicles at high speed due to fear of Traffic Police

By Dheeraj Fartode 
If you are going to school/college on motorbike, and do not want to land in trouble, you should keep driving license with you. Traffic cops have decided to conduct drive to check driving licence in schools/colleges in the city, and fine those riding motorbike but not possessing a valid licence.

Traffic Branch of City Police will conduct the drive In July and August. “We have already sent a letter to 274 schools/colleges and requested them to mention driving license number of students in their Identity Cards,” Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP-Traffic) Chandra Kishore Mina told ‘The Hitavada’.

Assistant Commissioner of Police (Traffic) Mahadeo Gawade said that many school going/college going students were riding motorcycles without driving license. “No school/college should allow parking of motorcycles in institution’s premises if riders do not have driving license, it has been mentioned in the letter we have sent to schools/colleges,” he said. Gawande said that Traffic Police was organising seminars on traffic safety rules in schools/colleges. An officer said that special teams of Traffic Police will be constituted to conduct the drive.
Rash driving
According to Ravindra Kaskhedikar, Secretary of Janakrosh, “Many mishaps of school/college going students were reported in city in the months of July and August.” It was noticed that 70 per cent motorbikes used by Standard XI students are above 150 cc in displacement, have 15 BHP power engine, and weigh above 140 kgs. Average weight of Standard XI student is around 65 kgs. The students are physically unfit to ride such vehicles safely but they are doing it despite risk to their life, lamented Kaskhedikar. Parents should not allow their wards to drive vehicles without driving license and administration should not allow students to enter school/college without driving license, he demanded.

Many students, who do not have driving license, drive vehicles at high speed due to fear of Traffic Police. On several such occasions, such driving has caused accidents, Kaskhedikar said. It is duty of administration of every educational institution to ensure safety of students. This can be achieved by mentioning driving license number on Identity Card, he added. School/college administration should be held responsible if students do not have driving license, he demanded. He pointed out that students performed motorbike stunts in institution’s premises and also on city roads, and demanded cops to take stern action against them.

Traffic Police should conduct surprise inspection of driving license in school/college every month. This will force students to apply for driving license, Kaskhedikar felt. He added that Traffic Police, in collaboration with school/college administration, must install information board about driving license checking drive, safety, fatal accidents, and fines for breaking traffic rules in every institution in the city.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

By
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 als...

Longest cable-stayed bridge to boost tourism at Ambhora

By
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...
