"School teachers used to call me to enquire about the reason for my son’s absence if he ever skipped #school. Why couldn’t they inform me about this incident? 2 young boys alone took my son to the #hospital, and one of them covered the wound with his shirt as the blood was flowing rapidly. I want the administration to take action against the negligent school staff." Sitting on the floor of her house in Udaipur, the mother of the 15-year-old boy who died on Aug 19 after being stabbed two days earlier, allegedly by a schoolmate, was inconsolable. “I do not want monetary compensation. I want justice for my child, who was killed in revenge…,” she said. Click on the 🔗 below to read what happened in detail 👇🏽 https://lnkd.in/g-hYnzMD

#WATCH | Healthcare services remain affected at state-run hospitals in West Bengal, as junior doctors continued their strike for the 13th consecutive day over the rape and murder of a doctor at R G Kar hospital. Doctors in other states also carried out protests and some states, such as Chandigarh, initiated an ‘Open OPD’ on the site. This comes after Supreme Court ordered the deployment of CISF at the hospital and also urged doctors to resume duty.

A policeman in #Patna accidentally struck the local sub-divisional magistrate while lathicharging a demonstration held in the city to protest #SupremeCourt’s ruling allowing sub-classification of Scheduled Castes for reservation. A video of the purported incident shows a policeman accidentally hitting SDM Shrikant Kundlik Khandekar, who was monitoring the situation, with his lathi. The police officer immediately realised his mistake. Supreme Court has reframed how SC and ST quota might operate — for the very 1st time since reservations were introduced in the Constitution in 1950. This ruling aims to prioritise those most in need within these groups. But it has been criticised for potentially undermining the core principles of India's reservation system and increasing community divisions.

Supreme Court allows sub-categorisation in Scheduled Caste reservation: What is the case? In 2004, the Supreme Court held that the sub-classification among Scheduled Castes for the purpose of reservation would violate the right to equality and said that the SC list must be treated as a single, homogenous group.

Police lathi-charged protesters in #Bihar’s Patna amid a nationwide strike called by Dalit and Adivasi groups against #SupremeCourt’s decision to permit sub-classification of SCs and STs. Deputy Superintendent of Police, Ashok Kumar Singh, said police had to use “mild force” because it was “not a peaceful protest” and “common people could not travel”. Yesterday, Supreme Court reframed how SC and ST quota might operate — for the very 1st time since reservations were introduced in the #Constitution in 1950. This ruling aims to prioritise those most in need within these groups. But it has been criticised for potentially undermining the core principles of India's reservation system and increasing community divisions.

Police have registered 4 FIRs against around 500 protesters and arrested more than 66 over the protests, which erupted at Badlapur in #Maharashtra's Thane district against sexual abuse of two 4-year-old girls allegedly by a janitor at a #school. Sudhakar Pathare, deputy commissioner, #Badlapur said arrested suspects have been charged with sections of rioting, damaging public property and causing hurt to public servants. A senior police officer also said that printed banners, WhatsApp group messages and other preparedness by the mob suggests the protest was well-planned. Authorities have thus suspended internet services in Badlapur since Aug 20 evening to ensure rumours are not spread on social media.
