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...

India-Australia cricket match security: Tight vigil

By
Vidarbha Cricket Association's (VCA) Jamtha stadium 

By Dheeraj Fartode
A multi-tier security system and closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras will function to ensure foolproof safety during the sixth One-Day International match between India and Australia at Vidarbha Cricket Association’s (VCA) Jamtha Stadium on October 30.
Addressing a press conference on Superintendent of Police (Rural), Dr. Manoj Kumar Sharma said that whole premises of the stadium will be covered under CCTV cameras to monitor the movement of the general public in and outside the stadium, entry to dressing rooms and all parking stands.
Five SP rank officers, 11 DySPs, 40 Inspectors, 70 sub-inspectors, and more than 2,000 constabulary force would be deployed for the match, he added. 11 dog squads and Bomb Detection and Disposal Squads (BDDS) would be engaged at all entry points, the SP said.

Apart from the city police, State Reserve Police Force (SRPF) personnel and Quick Response Teams (QRT) will also be deployed in and around the stadium, Dr. Sharma said. More than 40 metal detectors, door frame monitor would be installed at all entry points as security measure. Dr. Sharma ruled out any compromise on the security measures, he said. Traffic on of heavy vehicles on Wardha road would be divert during between 11 am and 2 pm and 7 pm and 10 pm.

VCA Chairpersons Prakash Dixit said that the stadium has seating capacity of 45,000. However, 41,500 seats are available to the general public. The rest of the tickets will be reserved for sponsors, and the complimentary category. The association expects to earn around Rs 4.5 crore from ticket sale.
Additional SP Prakash Jadhav, VCA office-bearers including Prafull Joshi, Gautam Kale and others were pesent at the press conference.

60 vendors escape police verification

While Nagpur Rural Police claims that allowing eatables by spectators constitute a security risk but the 60 odd vendors selected to hawk food items have escaped police verification. Asked about this apparent contradiction, Dr. Manoj Kumar Sharma said it is not possible to verify antecedents of each of the vendor. Further he said, the vendors are associated with VCA since long thereby giving indications that no security checks are needed.

Food, water, flags with sticks not allowed

Cops will not allow spectators to carry food items, drinking water, flag with sticks with them inside the stadium due to security reasons. SP Dr Sharma cited security reason for the decision.
“We will allow only small purse, ticket and mobile phones,” said Dr Sharma. The measure will be taken for security of the spectators, he said.

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...
