He sent it in his nephew’s school WhatsApp group
Personnel from the Neelankarai police station on Friday arrested a 25-year-old for sending an obscene video in a WhatsApp group meant for schoolchildren to share information on online classes.
Recently, teachers and parents were shocked to see obscene content being shared from a mobile phone used by a Class VII student on WhatsApp.
The head of the school took up the matter with the police immediately, and lodged a complaint. Investigation by the police revealed that at the time the content was shared, the student in question was at school, and he did not use the mobile phone.
The election authorities are gearing up for the counting of votes cast in the simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh, scheduled to be held on June 4. The Collectors and Election Officers of Visakhapatnam, Anakapalli and Alluri Sitharama Raju (ASR) districts said on May 23 (Thursday) that their teams were ready for the counting of votes.
Responding to the prolonged water scarcity, the residents of the area took to the streets in protest on Wednesday. The protest, which drew attention to their plight, stopped only after the intervention of the police. It was not until 1.30 p.m. that a 4000-litre tanker was finally delivered by BWSSB, providing relief to the water-starved residents.
