VK News Today https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html Minor gangraped by 3 at knifepoint in Panna forest ANI file photo Suvendu Adhikari, leader of the opposition in West Bengal, has raised concerns over the deployment of contractual and casual workers for vote counting duties in two constituencies, calling it a threat to the integrity of the democratic process.Adhikari, who is also BJP’s candidate from Bhowanipore, described the move as “a matter of grave concern and a direct assault on the sanctity of the democratic process.”“Is the fate of Democracy being handed over to CONTRACTUAL WORKERS?” Adhikari wrote.Referring to counting orders issued for 227-Pingla AC and 230-Daspur AC, he questioned the involvement of non-permanent staff in handling sensitive election materials.“How can ‘Jibika Sebaks,’ ‘Sahayaks,’ and ‘Contractual DEOs’ be entrusted with the sensitive task of handling EVMs, VVPATs, and Postal Ballots?” he asked, adding that such roles are “inherently vulnerable to political pressure and lack the institutional accountability required for a process as sacred as the counting of votes,” Adhikari said through a post on X.He also called for immediate intervention by the Election Commission of India and the Chief Electoral Officer of West Bengal to ensure that only permanent government employees are deployed for counting duties. “This looks like a desperate attempt by the ruling dispensation to manipulate the final mandate through vulnerable personnel,” Adhikari alleged, urging a comprehensive audit of counting staff in Paschim Medinipur district.“The Election Commission of India must act to prevent the ‘Contractualization of Democracy.’ We will not allow the Mandate of the People to be tampered with by those whose jobs depend on the whims of the ruling party,” he said.The BJP leader’s remarks come amid allegations of EVM tampering in the constituency, with claims that the party’s symbol, the lotus, was “covered with tape” at certain polling booths in the Falta constituency of South 24 Parganas district.Repolling is underway in 15 polling stations in South 24 Parganas district, including 11 in Magrahat Paschim and four in Diamond Harbour constituencies.In a letter to the chief electoral officer of West Bengal, the Election Commission of India said the repoll was ordered based on inputs from the state election machinery, with voting scheduled from 7.00 am to 6.00 pm on the dayAbout 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.

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Saturday dismissed a plea by TMC challenging the deployment of Central government and PSU employees as counting supervisors for the West Bengal assembly elections, while recording the Election Commission of India’s statement that its April 13 circular will be implemented in letter and spirit.The plea had been filed against a Calcutta High Court order that had earlier rejected TMC’s challenge to the counting arrangement.A special bench of Justices PS Narasimha and Joymalya Bagchi heard the matter, with counting of votes scheduled to be held on May 4.During the hearing, the bench observed that TMC representatives would be present during the counting of votes and said that the EC’s circular is not contrary to the rules.Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing along with Senior Advocate Meenakshi Arora for TMC, questioned the directive, submitting that the April 13 circular came to the petitioner’s knowledge only on April 29, despite claims of prior notice. He also questioned the basis of the EC’s apprehension of wrongdoing.Senior Advocate D S Naidu, appearing for the Election Commission, submitted that the Returning Officer, a State Government employee, retains overarching control over the counting process and selects personnel. He said the April 13 circular on deployment of Central government staff will be followed in letter and spirit and argued that the concerns raised were based on “misplaced apprehensions.” He added that one State government employee and one Central government employee would be appointed as counting supervisor and counting assistant.Justice Bagchi observed that describing a counting official as a Central Government nominee “hardly matters,” and said such decisions fall within the subjective satisfaction of the Election Commission of India. He also noted that party-appointed counting agents would be present and that the counting framework already includes a micro-observer who is a Central Government officer, along with counting supervisors and assistants.The Trinamool Congress, led by Mamata Banerjee, moved the Supreme Court on Friday after the high court dismissed its plea challenging the counting arrangement.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.

Several passengers, however, appear without them, reinforcing survivor accounts that safety gear was not distributed in time. Also read: Final moments of mother and son found holding each other in MP boat tragedyThe incident, which occurred on Thursday evening, has so far claimed nine lives, with six people still missing. Rescue teams comprising the Army, NDRF and SDRF continue search operations, even as disturbing details emerge about the final moments on board. Survivors have alleged that life jackets were stored away rather than issued at the outset, leading to a chaotic scramble as the vessel destabilised.During the rescue the body of a 39-year-old woman, Marina Massey, was found clutching her four-year-old son. Officials believe she attempted to shield him as water rapidly filled the lower cabin where they were trapped. Both were wearing life jackets, but the confined space likely left them with little chance to escape.Eyewitnesses said strong winds had made the water increasingly rough, prompting passengers to urge the crew to turn back. These warnings, however, were either unheard or acted upon too late. One survivor claimed the boat was overcrowded and that even children without tickets were onboard.The Madhya Pradesh Tourism Department has since sacked several staff members and launched an inquiry, while Chief Minister Mohan Yadav announced a ban on similar cruise operations pending investigation. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also expressed condolences and announced compensation for victims’ families.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.

New Delhi: Children with higher screen exposure at around one year of age are more likely to develop autism or autism-like traits by the age of three, experts have warned, underlining growing concern over early and prolonged screen use.“There has been considerable research on screen time and autism. Studies show that children who had higher screen exposure at around one year of age were more likely to have autism by the age of three, particularly among boys, though similar trends are seen in girls in terms of symptoms,” said Prof Sheffali Gulati, Faculty In-Charge, Pediatric Neurology Division, Department of Pediatrics, AIIMS.She added that multiple studies, including meta-analyses, have found that the earlier screen exposure begins and the longer its duration, the stronger its association with autism.“We also conducted a study comparing children with autism and other children and found that those with autism had been introduced to screens earlier and had longer durations of use. Their screen dependency scores were also higher,” she said.Experts cautioned that this is an association and not a direct cause, as autism is a complex neurodevelopmental condition influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors.Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affects social interaction, communication and behaviour, and can often be identified as early as 12–18 months, making early identification and intervention critical.Prof Gulati emphasised the need to strictly limit screen exposure. “Children below 18 months should not be exposed to screens at all. Between 18 months and 6 years, screen time should be minimal—ideally limited to about one hour a day and only with supervision. For older children, it should not exceed two hours,” she said, citing guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Government of India.She stressed that direct interaction with children is essential for development. “Communication, play and human engagement are critical for brain development, especially in the early years,” she said.She also highlighted the need to distinguish between passive and active use of technology. Passive screen exposure should be avoided, while interactive tools that engage the child’s thinking may be used cautiously and under supervision.Experts also noted that many children with autism have associated conditions such as attention deficits, behavioural issues and sleep disturbances, which can worsen outcomes and increase caregiving burden.With screen use rising sharply among young children, doctors said awareness among parents is crucial to ensure balanced development and reduce potential risks linked to excessive digital exposure.About the AuthorAnuja JaiswalAnuja Jaiswal is a Senior Assistant Editor at The Times of India, with an impressive 18-year career in narrative journalism.

NEW DELHI: The Allahabad High Court ruled that public land cannot be claimed for exclusive religious use by any individual or group, holding that such activities, including offering Namaz, must remain subject to public order and the rights of others.The observation was made by a Division Bench of Justice Saral Srivastava and Justice Garima Prasad while dismissing a petition filed by Asin, a resident of Ikauna under Gunnaur Tehsil in Sambhal district, who had sought relief in connection with the use of land for offering Namaz.The Court clarified that “public land cannot be unilaterally used by any single party for religious purposes,” adding that all individuals have equal rights over such property and its exclusive use is not legally permissible, reported ANI.Reiterating the broader legal position, the Bench stated that the “right to practice religion is subject to public order” and cannot be exercised in a way that infringes upon the rights of others. It further noted that religious freedom is not absolute and remains subject to the rights of others.Referring to earlier rulings, including the Munazir Khan vs State of Uttar Pradesh and Others case, the Court noted that while bona fide religious practices within private premises are protected and cannot be subjected to arbitrary interference, such protection does not amount to “absolute carte blanche” for organised or regular collective religious activities.The Court further observed that when such activities extend beyond private boundaries and begin impacting the public domain, regulatory intervention by the State becomes permissible. It added, “It cannot be interpreted that there is an unrestricted right to convert private premises into unregulated collective spaces for regular gatherings.”Court flags limits on Namaz gatheringsIn examining the present case, the Bench noted that the petitioner was not seeking to preserve an existing long-standing tradition but was instead attempting to initiate regular collective gatherings involving participants from within and outside the village.The Court observed that historically, Namaz at the site had been offered only on specific occasions such as Eid, and held that any expansion beyond this limited practice would fall outside the scope of protected activity and would therefore be open to regulation.It further remarked that the State has the authority to intervene where activities deviate from established traditions and affect public order. The Bench also stated that even if the land were considered private property, the petitioner would still not be entitled to the relief sought.In its order, the Court added that if public land is illegally transferred and later used to demand organised Namaz gatherings, such a sale deed would be considered illegal and not sustainable in law.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.
