Teen rape survivor brutally murdered by accused and his brother

In a shocking incident in Uttar Pradesh's Kaushambi district, a 19-year-old rape survivor was brutally hacked to death in broad daylight by two brothers, one of whom was the accused in her rape case. The killers, Ashok and Pawan Nishad, had been released on bail just days before the murder. The victim had accused Pawan Nishad of raping her three years ago when she was a minor, and he had been harassing her since then to drop the case. The victim's refusal to back down led to the brothers ambushing and slaughtering her as she returned from grazing her family's cattle. The accused brothers are now on the run, and the police have formed teams to track them down. This incident has once again brought attention to the Uttar Pradesh government's record on preventing crimes against women, with the state recording the highest number of crimes against women in 2021. sources

Kamal Nath confident of Congress victory, disregards trends

Congress leader Kamal Nath has expressed confidence that his party will win the 2023 Madhya Pradesh Assembly election. Speaking to news agency ANI, Nath stated that he did not need to look at any trends until 11 am and trusted the voters. The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was leading in 122 seats, while the Congress was leading in 98, as vote-counting began with postal ballots.

Nath played down the exit polls' predictions and reminded Congress workers of their strength. Meanwhile, Shivraj Chouhan, the former Chief Minister, remains confident that the BJP will return to power for a fifth time. sources

Congress leads halfway in Chhattisgarh as results emerge

Early trends in the Chhattisgarh state elections show that the Congress party has crossed the halfway mark, in line with exit poll predictions. At 9:40 am, the Congress was leading in 54 seats, while the BJP was at 35, with postal ballots being the first to be opened. However, the postal ballots only account for a small percentage of the total votes. BJP veteran and former Chief Minister, Raman Singh, expressed optimism in a tweet, stating that the "darkness has dispersed" and the BJP is coming. Exit polls suggest that the Congress is expected to cross the majority mark of 46 seats on its own, while only two out of nine exit polls give the BJP the necessary 46+ seats to win the state. The Congress is relying on Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel's track record, as he rebuilt the party after a devastating Maoist attack in 2013. The elections took place in two phases on November 7 and 17, with a voter turnout of 76.31 percent. sources

White Lung Syndrome: Mysterious Pneumonia Outbreak Resembling China's

A global outbreak of a new bacterial pneumonia strain known as White Lung Syndrome has raised concerns, particularly due to its impact on children aged three to eight. While the exact cause of the outbreak is still unknown, experts suspect it may be linked to a newly identified strain of Mycoplasma pneumoniae, a common bacterium responsible for respiratory infections. White Lung Syndrome is characterized by white patches on chest X-rays and encompasses various respiratory illnesses such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM), and silicosis. ARDS occurs when fluid accumulates in the air sacs of the lungs, making breathing difficult. PAM is a rare lung disease caused by calcium deposits in the air sacs, leading to shortness of breath and chest pain. Silicosis, on the other hand, is caused by inhaling silica dust and can also cause respiratory symptoms. Symptoms of White Lung Syndrome include shortness of breath, coughing, chest pain, fever, and fatigue. The underlying cause is believed to involve a combination of bacterial, viral, and environmental factors. Treatment options vary depending on the cause and severity of the condition, ranging from antibiotics and antivirals to oxygen therapy and corticosteroids. sources

Madhya Pradesh Election Results 2023: Live Counting and Result

The Madhya Pradesh election results are being declared today, with counting of votes starting at 8 am IST. The state has been a stronghold for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the past twenty years, except for a 15-month period when the Congress came to power in 2018. BJP's Shivraj Singh Chouhan, a four-time Chief Minister, has not been officially declared as the candidate for the top post in 2023.

Telangana Election 2023: Live Updates on Vote Counting

The counting of votes for the Telangana Assembly elections will begin today at 8 am, as the state decides whether K Chandrasekhar Rao of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) will retain power for a third term or if the BJP or Congress will take control.

Rajasthan Election 2023: Congress and BJP Face Tough Contest

The counting of votes in Rajasthan is set to be a riveting show, despite exit polls predicting a victory for the BJP. The state has a history of voting out the incumbent party, making the outcome uncertain. Both the BJP and Congress campaigned intensely, with the BJP deploying senior ministers and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while the Congress focused on grassroots campaigning. Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot projected confidence, but exit polls indicate a challenging task for him to secure a second consecutive term. The polls suggest that the BJP may win comfortably with 104 seats, while the Congress may secure 86 seats. However, there is a chance that the BJP could find itself on the other side of the fence, as there is not a marked difference in the poll promises of the two parties. Both parties have struggled with inner rifts and factionalism, with the Congress facing a feud between Gehlot and Sachin Pilot. The lack of a Chief Ministerial candidate for the BJP may also affect their fortunes. Overall, the Rajasthan election promises to be a cliffhanger. sources
