The Delhi High Court has put a stop to the Bar Council of India’s (BCI) order to remove Sanjeev Nasiar, who leads the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) legal team, from his position as vice chairperson of the Bar Council of Delhi. This action came after the BCI raised doubts about his law degree from Devi Ahilya Bai Vishwavidyalaya in Indore and called for an investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

Earlier in the day, Nasiar went to the Delhi High Court to fight against the BCI’s decision to kick him out. The BCI also asked the Secretary of the Bar Council of Delhi to start a CBI inquiry into whether Nasiar’s academic credentials were real or if any records were faked.

In a statement, the BCI explained that a sub-committee found “serious problems” with Nasiar’s degree. They mentioned that a college in Indore, where he supposedly studied, was not allowed to offer a law course during the time he claimed to have done so. The BCI stated that the records they received looked suspicious, with signs that they might have been changed or were written in the same handwriting, which is not normal for documents over many years.

Nasiar said that he feels the BJP party is using the BCI as a tool against him. During a press conference, he stated, “I am not scared of any action or investigation. I welcome any inquiry by the CBI or any other authority. I will not be intimidated. Every document of mine has already been verified, and the high court has upheld this.”

A 30-year-old man from Potiadih village in Chhattisgarh sadly died by suicide on Saturday. Before his death, he posted on social media about feeling very upset because his wife and her family were pressuring him to change his religion.

The police found him dead in his home on December 7. They discovered his WhatsApp message where he said he was being constantly “harassed” by his in-laws. He even shared his feelings with his brother-in-law just hours before ending his life.

In his message, he wrote, “I am fed up with my wife. She harassed me to change my religion. When I visited her family, her mother and sisters also pressured me to convert, saying they would later convince my parents.”

The situation led to police arresting four people: the man’s wife, her parents, and one of her sisters. They have been charged with helping in the suicide case. The search is ongoing for the woman’s younger sister.

In response to these issues, the Chhattisgarh government is planning to pass a new law against forced religious conversions. This proposed law includes strict penalties to stop people from converting others through pressure or tricks.

If someone wants to change their religion, they must inform the District Magistrate 60 days in advance, and those helping with the conversion must show proof that it was not done through any unfair means. If someone illegally converts a minor, woman, or a member of a Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribe, they could face 2-10 years in jail and a fine of at least ₹25,000. Mass conversions could lead to 3-10 years in prison and a fine of ₹50,000. Victims may also get compensation of up to ₹5 lakh.

Many rights groups are against these anti-conversion laws, saying they violate people’s freedom to choose and practice their religion. The Indian Constitution protects the right to freedom of religion through Article 25, allowing everyone to practice and share their faith freely.

Tejashwi Yadav, the leader of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), has made a big promise to the people of Bihar. He said that if his party wins the elections next year, the money given to senior citizens, widows, and disabled people will increase from ₹400 to ₹1,500 every month!

He mentioned that people over 60 years, those with disabilities, and widows will benefit from this change through social security programs. Tejashwi, who used to be the Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar, was quoted saying, “We promise to deliver when we get the chance,” and he criticized the current ₹400 monthly payment as “too little.”

This news comes a week after he promised people “200 units of free electricity,” claiming that many are suffering because of high electricity bills. Tejashwi also talked about creating “10 lakh jobs” and mentioned that there have been many new government jobs in Bihar, which made leaders of the ruling party unhappy.

In nearby Jharkhand, where RJD is part of the ruling coalition, people voted for the party due to the success of their social security plans. The elections in Bihar are expected to be held around October or November next year.

Bhopal is a city in India known for its rich history and beautiful sites. One of the most famous places nearby is Sanchi, a town filled with ancient Buddhist monuments. These monuments, like stupas and pillars, are important for understanding India’s culture and religion.

For many years, the rulers of Bhopal worked hard to preserve Sanchi. They recognized how valuable these historical sites are not just for locals but for visitors from around the world. The beautiful carvings and architecture of Sanchi are a glimpse into the past and tell the stories of those who lived long ago.

The rulers of Bhopal took action to protect Sanchi from damage. They made laws to ensure that the area stays safe and clean. By doing this, they not only honored the heritage but also encouraged tourism, which helps the local economy.

Today, Sanchi remains a symbol of heritage that attracts people of all ages. Thanks to the dedication of Bhopal’s leaders, this beautiful site continues to inspire and educate everyone who visits

On Monday morning, around 40 schools in Delhi got scary emails saying there were bombs planted inside their buildings. The sender asked for $30,000, or USD 30,000, in return for not causing harm.

The schools that received these threats included well-known ones like DPS RK Puram, GD Goenka, The British School, and Modern School, among others. After getting the emails, most schools decided to stop classes for the day and sent students home as a safety measure.

Fire and police teams quickly arrived to search the schools. At around 9:30 AM, officials said they hadn’t found anything suspicious in the buildings. The emails were sent late Sunday night at 11:38 PM from the address [email protected].

The email claimed, “I planted multiple bombs inside the building. The bombs are small and hidden very well. It will not cause much damage to the building, but many people will be injured when the bombs go off.” The mail continued with a threatening message: “You all deserve to suffer and lose limbs. If I do not receive $30,000, my group ‘KNR’ is behind this attack.”

One school, Mother Mary’s School, told parents to pick up their kids immediately due to the threat. A parent named Harish shared his frustration, saying, “I received an emergency message from the school. This shows the government is failing to keep schools safe since these threats keep happening.”

This isn’t the first time such threats have been made. In May, over 200 schools, hospitals, and important buildings in Delhi received similar bomb threats, and the case remains unsolved because the emails were sent anonymously using a special tool called a Virtual Private Network.
