Court makes observation while hearing petition filed by senior journalist Vineet Narain
The Allahabad High Court has expressed annoyance at the “falling standards” in the Uttar Pradesh police department, particularly among senior officers. The court made the remark while hearing a petition filed by senior journalist Vineet Narain. He and two others were recently booked for levelling baseless allegations against senior Vishwa Hindu Parishad leader Champat Rai and his brothers of grabbing land from a gaushala in Bijnor. Mr. Rai is general secretary of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra, entrusted with the task of building the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya.More Related News

Bangladesh is witnessing renewed political tension after the killing of Sharif Osman Hadi, a young leader who emerged during the July–August 2024 uprising that led to the removal of Sheikh Hasina. Hadi later headed the radical group Inquilab Mancha and was campaigning ahead of the 2026 parliamentary election when he was shot in Dhaka. His death has triggered protests, diplomatic friction with India, and concerns over rising political violence as Bangladesh heads towards elections under an interim government.
