Man in 'one-sided love' murders father of teeage girl

By

A man was murdered by a 20-year-old youth, who was said to be in a one-sided love affair with the former’s teenage daughter in Gittikhadan area on Sunday. Angry over the murder, the locals gheroed the police station and demanded justice to the victim. 

The police have arrested Balram Manoj Pandey (20), a resident of Surendragarh, for killing Narayanprasad Gayaprasad Dwivedi (35), a resident of Surendragarh. According to police, Narayan was operating a food stall at Nagpur railway station and living in a rented accomodation of Pandey family for past 10 years

Narayan's 16-year-old daughter studies in class 10th. Balaram used to follow the girl on her way to school for the past one year. He was even flirting with her everyday. The girl narrated the incident to her mother Anu who promptly alerted Narayan. As a result, Narayan scolded Balaram and complained to his parents about his behaviour. Balram's father Manoj reportedly assured Narayan that Balram would not do any such wrong thing with his daughter in future. Therefore, Narayan did not file a police complaint against him. However, Balram was not ready to mend his ways and continue to harass the teenage girl, police said. 

The Pandey family recently asked Narayan to vacate the place. On July 28, Narayan vacated Pandey's house and rented another room in Surendragarh. When the Dwivedi family was leaving the place, Balaram threatened Narayan that he would kill him if he vacated the house. Narayan reprimanded him fiercely and vacated the house. 

Narayan was going to the railway station on his motorcycle on Sunday at 8.30 am. About 200 meters away from Gittikhadan police station, Balaram stopped Narayan and stabbed him repeatedly with a sharp-edged weapon. Narayan collapsed on the ground in the pool of blood. Balram fled the spot with the weapon, police said. 

Gittikhadan police reached the spot as soon as the incident was reported. The body was sent for post-mortem after performing Panchnama. Shortly after the incident, the Gittikhadan police arrested Balram from the Gorewada complex. 

A police official said that Narayan was originally from Rewa district of Madhya Pradesh. A large number of locals gathered at the police station and demanded justice for Balram. A case under Sections 302, 506 (2), 354, 354 (d) of Indian Penal Code read with Section 12 of POCSO Act was registered by the police. The accused will be produced in the court on Monday.

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...

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...
