Lalu Prasad’s daughter, Rohini Acharya, has voiced concerns about women’s safety in Bihar, advocating for parental homes to be secure havens. Her appeal follows a public fallout with her family, where she alleged accusations of ulterior motives behind her kidney donation to her father. Acharya believes societal and political shifts are crucial to protect women from exploitation. PATNA: About a month after she broke off relations with her family, RJD chief Lalu Prasad’s daughter, Rohini Acharya, signalled there was further strain when she appealed to Bihar’s govt to ensure that every woman can stay safely in her parental home. Rohini, who lives in Singapore, had donated her kidney to her father Lalu in Dec 2022 for transplant at a Singapore hospital.In a social media post on Thursday, she indirectly praised chief minister Nitish Kumar for distributing Rs 10,000 among women and giving cycles to schoolgirls, but said these steps were inadequate. Rohini said that in Bihar, a deeply rooted patriarchal mindset creates the need for widespread change in both social and political spheres. “I have no family…” Rohini Acharya Cuts Ties With Lalu Clan, Exits Politics Post-RJD Defeat “Every daughter has the right to grow up with the assurance that her parental home is a safe place, where she can return without fear, guilt, shame, or having to explain herself to anyone,” she wrote on X, asserting implementing this measure is not just an “administrative duty” but a step towards saving countless women from future exploitation and harassment.Her observation comes about a month after she quit RJD and disowned her family members following a verbal spat, allegedly with her brother Tejashwi Yadav over RJD’s assembly election disaster. She also alleged she was accused of donating a “dirty kidney” to her father after “extracting crores of rupees and a Lok Sabha ticket”.About the AuthorManoj ChaurasiaManoj Chaurasia is a senior political journalist having experience of working for top national and international media in a career spanning over 25 years.

Within moments, he was engulfed by a crush of VIPs, officials and selfie-seekers. Fifteen minutes later, with the crowd around him refusing to thin out, Messi and Inter Miami teammates Luis Suarez and Rodrigo De Paul were pulled out for security reasons. The stands never got their moment.On the way out, Messi was briefly introduced to former India cricket captain Sourav Ganguly, who had just arrived and taken a seat in a makeshift tent on the pitch.

Delhi Police informed a court that most student protesters arrested for allegedly assaulting officers provided false addresses, hindering investigations. The police sought custody to probe alleged links to Maoist groups, a claim the defense contested. The court granted two-day police custody for four students and one-day judicial custody for thirteen others. India Gate ‘pro-Maoist’ protest case NEW DELHI: The Delhi Police on Thursday told a court that most of the student protesters arrested for allegedly assaulting police personnel during last week’s demonstration at India Gate had intentionally provided incorrect addresses to conceal their identities.The police described the move as a “mockery of the law.”“It is very astounding that most of the accused before the court furnished incorrect addresses. The information sheets of several accused have been returned unverified by the local police. This shows they are not only making a mockery of the law but also deliberately concealing their identity,” the submission stated before Judicial Magistrate Sahil Monga at Patiala House court.The police further informed the court that on November 23, the day of the demonstration, some students gathered at the gate of the Parliament Street police station, launched “aggressive sloganeering” against the government, and blocked the entry and exit points of the facility.Out of the 17 accused, it sought five-day custody for five, arguing that more time was required to probe their alleged support for Maoists and banned organisations to uncover what it called a “deep-rooted conspiracy.”Opposing the plea, the defence counsel countered that the police had presented no material linking the students to any such activity and that custody could not be justified merely because their addresses were not verified.“What do they want to investigate? The probe can continue without custody. The accused cannot be put in custody just because the police could not verify their address,” the counsel asked.The court granted two-day police custody for four students — Gurkirat, Ravjot, Kranti and Abhinash — while sending the remaining 13 to one-day judicial custody.On November 23, a total of 23 students, including 11 women, were arrested after two FIRs were filed at the Kartavya Path and Parliament Street police stations. During the India Gate protest, which was organised to highlight Delhi’s worsening air pollution crisis, the group allegedly raised slogans in support of Maoist commander Madvi Hidma, who was recently killed in an encounter with security forces in Andhra Pradesh.They are also accused of using pepper spray on police personnel.(With PTI inputs)About the AuthorTOI News DeskThe TOI News Desk comprises a dedicated and tireless team of journalists who operate around the clock to deliver the most current and comprehensive news and updates to the readers of The Times of India worldwide.
