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...

Dr Pravin Togadia, International Working President of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) on Sunday launched India Health Line (IHL), an initiative to provide health services to the needy and poor patients at low cost, here on Sunday. “IHL is the biggest ever health initiative to provide free health facility to all the poor Hindus on a single phone call across the nation. We are trying to connect patients with doctors willing to provide health services,” said Dr Togadia.  
Former MP Banwarilal Purohit, VHP President Vijayjeet Walia, VHP vice-president Dr Hemant Jambhekar, City chief Satish Vyavhare, renowned cardiologist Dr P K Deshpande, Surgeon Dr Prashant Rahate and others were present on the dais. 
Launching IHL, Dr Togadia, himself a renowned cancer surgeon, said, “there are untreated diseases only because patients after primary examination by the doctor do not approach specialist doctors as advised. It is mainly due to poverty, fear of increased medical expenses, people tend to ignore even if some serious disease is detected. To avoid this, IHL aims at connecting Medical Fraternity with the needy and poor patients,” Togadia elaborated.
Dr Pravin Togadia addressing the function while dignitaries including
former MP Banwarilal Purohi, Dr Hemant Jambhekar,

Besides this, the VHP chief said they will organise health education camps where people will be made aware of health issues so that complications can be prevented. Medicines will also be made available to the people at cheaper rates than the regular medicine available in the market, he said.  
Former MP Banwarilal Purohit applauded Dr Togadia for the initiative and promised him to extend full support. IHL is leading a revolution in the country. He also appealed people to attach with the movement.

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...
