An unusual incident occurred at the Madhya Pradesh High Court on March 22 when lawyer PC Paliwal criticized the judiciary's inefficiency during a hearing, prompting the court to refer the matter to Chief Justice Suresh Kumar Kait for potential contempt proceedings. While representing a criminal revision petition linked to an assault case, Paliwal expressed frustration over case delays and alleged that judges were not effectively addressing the growing backlog. He stated, "A drama is going on in this court for four hours," and voiced his intention to inform Chief Minister Mohan Yadav about the situation. Justice Anuradha Shukla, who presided over the case, deemed Paliwal's remarks disrespectful to the court's dignity and postponed the hearing. This incident has ignited discussions on judicial decorum and ethics within the legal community, as all eyes now turn to Chief Justice Kait for his response.

Apr 01 2025, 12 ameznews.inIn a growing language debate, Raj Thackeray, leader of the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena, has called for Maharashtra to emulate Tamil Nadu's resistance to the three-language structure of the National Education Policy (NEP) and the perceived imposition of Hindi. Thackeray criticized Maharashtra's lack of response to the issue and emphasized the need for respect for regional languages, urging his party members to promote Marathi in Mumbai. Tamil Nadu's Chief Minister MK Stalin has highlighted that 25 Indian languages, including Marathi, are endangered due to the adoption of Hindi, with the DMK opposing the NEP for threatening India's linguistic diversity. While the BJP contends that the NEP offers various language options and does not mandate Hindi, Madhya Pradesh plans to introduce optional languages in colleges to enhance linguistic diversity. The DMK continues to pressure the central government for funds withheld over the NEP, asserting that Tamil Nadu's education system is among the best in India.

Mar 31 2025, 10 pmeznews.inStand-up comedian Kunal Kamra criticized the Mumbai Police on social media after they visited his parents' home in connection with a case involving his comments about Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. Kamra, who has not lived at that address for a decade, expressed that the police's actions were a waste of time and public resources. The police's visit followed Kamra's failure to respond to two summons for questioning related to his remarks, which included a parody song that provoked backlash from Shiv Sena supporters. The Madras High Court granted him interim pre-arrest bail until April 7, as he expressed fears of arrest by Mumbai authorities. Despite the controversy, Kamra has stated he does not regret his comments and would only apologize if mandated by the courts. His remarks have sparked significant political tension and led to vandalism at the venue where he performed.

Mar 31 2025, 8 pmeznews.inPakistani state actors are reportedly facilitating the infiltration of seasoned terrorists from Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) into India, particularly in Jammu and Kashmir, according to Indian intelligence sources. Recent communications between JeM and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) reveal heightened ideological rifts, leading to increased infiltration attempts, with JeM terrorists being identified in recent operations. Intelligence indicates that 95% of approximately 120 terrorists in the region are foreigners aligned with JeM, armed with NATO weapons, while LeT operatives are typically equipped with locally sourced or Chinese firearms. The ongoing rivalry between these groups has become advantageous for Indian security forces, as rivalries have led to intelligence leaks about terrorist movements. In response, Indian authorities are enhancing security along the Line of Control, with additional Border Security Force troops being deployed. Union Home Minister Amit Shah is set to visit Jammu this week to review the security situation amid these developments.

Mar 31 2025, 5 pmeznews.inMassive anti-government protests erupted in Turkey on Saturday, following the recent arrest of opposition leader Ekrem Imamoglu, the mayor of Istanbul. Organised by Imamoglu's Republican People's Party (CHP), the demonstration drew claims of 2.2 million attendees, although estimates suggest hundreds of thousands participated despite a ban on gatherings and the threat of arrest. Imamoglu, seen as a formidable challenger to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, was detained on corruption and terrorism charges, which many view as politically motivated. His arrest has reignited public dissent reminiscent of the 2013 Gezi protests, particularly among younger generations seeking democratic reform. Erdogan's government has responded with severe crackdowns, including mass arrests and restrictions on transport, yet protests have continued to grow. As Turkey's political landscape becomes increasingly polarized, the future of democracy hinges on the resilience of these demonstrators and the potential for a fair judicial process for Imamoglu.

Mar 31 2025, 4 pmeznews.inIn Uttar Pradesh's Ghazipur district, villagers have taken the initiative to construct an 108-foot bridge over the Magai River after growing frustrated with unfulfilled promises from local representatives.

Local resident Rajesh Singh Yadav criticized elected officials for neglecting the area, emphasizing that the bridge will benefit over 50 villages and reduce travel distance to the district headquarters by 25 km. The absence of the bridge has severely affected education, forcing students to travel long distances to access schools. The project is led by a former Army engineer, Ravindra Yadav, who contributed Rs 10 lakh. District collector Aryaka Akhauri acknowledged the administration's awareness of the bridge and stated that it would ensure safety standards are met due to its intended use by heavy vehicles.

Mar 31 2025, 4 pmeznews.inThe first combined intelligence assessment under President Donald Trump, led by Tulsi Gabbard as the second woman to hold the Director of National Intelligence position, highlights critical issues regarding India, Pakistan, China, Russia, and Iran. Gabbard's report flags India's role in the fentanyl crisis, linking it to dual-use chemicals, while acknowledging India's cooperation with the US against drug trafficking. Pakistan's arrest of a suspect in a 2021 bombing is noted, but US intelligence remains wary of its ties to terrorist groups like the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan. The report presents a more assertive stance on China, warning of its military capabilities and advising against US involvement in a Taiwan conflict. It also portrays Russia as a persistent threat, particularly in its alliance with China, while softening the assessment of Iran. Overall, the report forecasts a more violent world shaped by adversarial cooperation among nations, urging India to enhance its counter-drug efforts.

Rajeev Chandrasekhar, the BJP's new Kerala chief, welcomed Tharoor's comments, noting that they reflect an "enlightened" stance that contrasts sharply with previous Congress criticisms of Modi's leadership.
