The Woman Police on Wednesday arrested head constable Vinod attached to a police station in the city on the charge of harassing a minor girl. The police said that the father of the girl had filed a complaint with a city police station in January this year stating that an autorickshaw driver was harassing his daughter. Vinod, who was in that station, secured the mobile number of the girl. He then started harassing her by sending lewd messages and making phone calls to her. The girl’s mother approached the Child Welfare Committee, which informed the Woman Police.
In , the grape capital of India and host of the Simhastha Kumbh Mela every 12 years, environmental concerns over a plan to cut 1,800 trees for the proposed Sadhugram project in the historic Tapovan area have sharpened political fault lines ahead of local body elections. The issue has pitted both Sena factions against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which leads the ruling Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra. While Eknath Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief, and Uddhav Thackeray, chief of the Shiv Sena (UBT), remain political rivals, their parties have found rare common ground in Tapovan, where authorities propose clearing trees across 34 acres to build Sadhugram and a MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) hub, as part of a ₹300-crore infrastructure push linked to the pilgrimage.
