Minor Dalit girl raped by neighbour Agency | Noida
A 17-year-old differently- abled Dalit girl was allegedly raped by her neighbour in Kasna village here, police said today.

Celebrations broke out in his ancestral village of Paraunkh village in Kanpur Dehat district of Uttar Pradesh. “This is an emotional moment for me today,” said Kovind in his first remarks to the press at his official residence. “This responsibility being given to me is a message to every person in the country who fulfils his responsibilities with honesty.” Kumar, in her remarks to report-
ers, also congratulated Kovind for the victory. At the same time, she said the battle of ideologies will continue. Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he was gladdened by the extensive support Kovind was able to manage across the political spectrum. “Congratulations to Shri Ram Nath Kovind Ji on being elected the President of India! Best wishes for a fruitful & inspiring tenure,” the prime minister tweeted immediately. Kovind’s victory was a foregone conclusion due to the NDA’s numerical strength in Parliament and the backing of nonNDA parties like the
BJD, JD(U), TRS and AIADMK. However, Kumar, the former Lok Sabha Speaker, exhorted members of Parliament and state assemblies to vote with their conscience. Kovind’s victory has come amid reports of cross-voting in several states such as Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat and Jharkhand. While the NDA candidate got the votes of 522 MPs of Parliament, Kumar was able to get only 225 MPs to vote for her. In NDA-ruled states like Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Goa, Gujarat and Jharkhand, Kovind was able to beat Kumar convincingly.
Apple Gets Your Personal Data, Why Not The State, Asks Supreme Court Agency | New Delhi
While hearing a challenge to the government’s massive biometric or “Aadhaar” database, the Supreme Court today said that companies like Apple already have access to the personal data of users. “When one can share personal data with private players like Apple, why not share it with the government? What’s the
difference?” asked Justice DY Chandrachud, one of nine judges determining if citizens’ privacy is a constitutional right. “99% of the people are unconcerned and not aware of the purpose for which data is collected,” he said. As examples, the judge
said iPhones and iPads are accessed by users’ thumbprints and if an individual books a train ticket, emails or ads pop up offering alternative flights for the same travel. He said this proves that citizens are already disclosing vast amounts of information online about their private habits and personal lives. “I have a contract with

Nehru govt passed law on cow slaughter with Ambedkar’s assent, how can you blame Modi: Arun Jaitley in RS On Thursday, FM Arun Jaitley looked to turn the tables on the Opposition in Rajya Sabha over lynchings and cow slaughter
Agency | New Delhi The government today asserted that killings in the name of cow “sentiments” was unacceptable and said the state governments should take stern action against those indulging in such violence. Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, who was speaking on the issue of lynchings in the Rajya Sabha on behalf of ailing Home Minister Rajnath Singh, made it clear that the central government could
not be blamed for violence by “some people”. “The government’s stand is clear. Nobody is allowed to do that (lynching in the name of cow protection). There is no rationalisation, no arguments of sentiments being hurt can be an explanation for this. And, the government is absolutely committed,” he said. Jaitley, who is also the Leader of the House, was replying to a debate on ‘situation arising out of the reported

Noting that the prime minister had spoken thrice against cow vigilantism, he said “no amount of sympathy” will be shown for those who indulge in lynching and “law will certainly take its own course.” He said the government unequivocally condemns the killings of human beings in the name of protecting cows and said “violence can never be a partisan issue and can’t be justified.”

friday, 21 JuLY, 2017 New President of India Ram Nath Kovind has very big shoes to fill
As pointed out by the Prime Minister himself, the campaign for the 14th presidency was free of mudslinging and rancour, unlike the 2007 election of Pratibha Devi Singh Patil. Even the BJP’s arch political rivals who set up Meira Kumar against Ram Nath Kovind posited the contest as a battle of ideologies. Regardless of the desirablity of consensus in elections to high constitutional offices, contest is integral to and at times inevitable in a democracy. In Kovind’s case, there was a near-consensus on his name with a host of non-NDA parties lining up behind his candidature. Presenting the pro-Kovind mobilisation as a divide in the Congress-led Opposition ranks is but one way of looking at it. In reality, it places greater responsibility on the new incumbent in our increasingly competitive polity. Expectations of him became more acute in the light of his rival’s decorous electioneering for the high office. I remember Kovind’s predecessor Pranab Mukherjee letting it be known at the outset of his tenure, that he’d run a constitutional presidency. His term overlapped the governments of Manmohan Singh and Narendra Modi. But he broadly kept the promise of adhering to the book — barring the imposition of President’s rule in Uttarakhand which the Court overturned to his chagrin and that of the Modi regime on whose advice he signed the proclamation. Like Mukherjee who won during the UPA rule, Kovind’s tenure will outlast that of the NDA that made him its candidate. His principal challenge won’t be dissimilar to the one faced by past presidencies: safeguarding the constitution without locking horns with the elected regime, or lying prostrate before it in the manner Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed did in the 1970s sullied by the imposition of Emergency rule. APJ Abdul Kalam assumed office when AB Vajpayee was Prime Minister. But he was a compromise choice, an outlier who earned a name devising defence systems. In that sense, Kovind’s place in history is already secured as the Republic’s first President from the BJP-RSS’s ideological stock. But as the country’s first citizen, his allegiance now is to the Constitution — in letter, spirit and sensitivity. The manner in which he accomplishes the task will embellish or demolish his legacy. His has to be a single book work religion. The first Dalit to occupy the high office was K R Narayanan, the tenth president whom none opposed except the Shiv Sena. Kovind is second. But regional, caste or linguistic identities that might dictate nominations have to be subsumed bu the demands of office.

Baadshaho May Self-Censor, Trim Intimate Scene Between Ajay Devgn, Ileana D’Cruz

Hollywood-Bollywood Kangana Ranaut now stable after Happy Birthday Shah sustaining injury on the sets of Naseeruddin 5 films that prove the veteran actor Manikarnika The Queen of Jhansi is a favourite among millennials too Agency | New Delhi
Kangana Ranaut was rushed to a hospital after a sword fight scene went wrong. The actor was shooting a sequence with costar Nihar Pandya. In the scene, she was expected to duck when Nihar swung the sword at her, but because the timing was wrong, the sword hit her between her brows resulting in 15 stitches. The shooting happened in Hyderabad and the actor was taken to Apollo hospital and admitted at the ICCU. She is expected to be discharged next week. A unit hand said, “Kangana was i m medi-
Filmmaker Milan Luthria’s Baadshaho, starring Ajay Devgn and Ileana D’Cruz, is all set release in theatres on September 1. Ahead of its release, the director has decided to trim a 10-minute intimate scene from the movie to avoid objections from the Central Board of Film Certi-
fication (CBFC), reported mid-day. “The scene between Ileana and Ajay, if left as is, lasts for 10 minutes. It’s aesthetically shot and is crucial to the film’s plot. But Milan decided to shorten it, trimming the kisses and bareback shots. He didn’t want to attract the wrath of the Censors,” mid-day quoted an insider as saying.
ately rushed to Apollo hospital nearby, where she was admitted into the ICCU. She got 15 stitches on her forehead and will be under observation in the hospital for a few days. The examining doctor said that it was a close shave for her because the cut was too close to her bone.” Producer Kamal Jain was also quoted as saying, “Kangana had to duck when Nihar attacked her, but the timing went wrong and Nihar’s sword hit her forehead instead. It made a deep cut between her eyebrows. The drive to the hospital took a good 30 minutes, but she put up a brave front despite the pain and bleeding. Nihar was apologetic and felt terrible, but Kangana pacified him,” to Mid-Day. Apparently, the Queen star had chosen not to use a body double for the shoot and chose to do the fight sequences herself. Another source from the unit informed that the actor will flaunt her scar in the film. “Rani of Jhansi was a warrior. So Kangana has decided that she will wear her scar with pride just like the Queen of Jhansi did,” the source said.
Jab Harry Met Sejal actor Shah Rukh Khan is missing his ‘Radha’ Anushka Sharma
Naseeruddin Shah, one of the most well-known actors in India, turns 67 today. But we know this man is not limited to being a mere parallel cinema actor. A 25-year-old youngster who started his career as a nobody in Nishant, Shah has over the years proved that he can straddle both the worlds simultaneously – parallel and commercial cinema. With his onscreen personas as varied as a menace-exuding shayar in Sar-
farosh, a lovable lech in The Dirty Picture, and a nameless representative of the common people in A Wednesday, Naseeruddin Shah is nothing if not versatile. As a means of celebrating the birthday of this great artiste, here’s what he means to the millennials, and his five films from recent years which remain in our minds. Naseeruddin Shah seems to have a way with Urdu poetry. The way he recites it is music to ears. In Sarfarosh, Shah played a poet and a terrorist in hiding. He was eerily compelling in mixing charm and malice together. Aamir Khan might have been the lead in Sarfarosh, but it was Naseeruddin who actually stole the show.

Kevin Pietersen slams England top order after South Africa rout Agency | New Delhi
Former captain Kevin Pietersen has criticised England’s top-order batsmen for being too passive and has called for the inclusion of Jason Roy and Dawid Malan in next week’s third test against South Africa. Opener Keaton Jennings has totalled 44 runs in his four innings in the first two tests of the four-match series, which is tied at 1-1, while number three Gary Ballance has failed to score a fifty in his last 11 innings.

“I know they won at Lord’s but that was the brilliance of Joe Root. “There’s individuals that are brilliant, but the collective don’t fire as much as they should and there are some holes in that batting order.” Root, who replaced Alastair Cook as England’s test captain, scored a splendid 190 to set up England’s win.
pursuit of the striker was well reported but they ended up spending £75million on Romelu Lukaku instead, supposedly from under the noses of Chelsea, giving us the strange situation in which Man Utd and Chelsea have signed the others’ number one target. Was the whole thing deliberately misleading? Who got the bet-
ter deal?The answer is, of course, subjective to circumstance and situation. The team is the priority and the collective is what wins trophies, but the individuals within that group often decide the outcome of matches. These two players occupy the same position but are markedly different. Lukaku is nothing but a brilliant goalscorer, a number nine by trade, while Morata is more of a nine-and-a-half, a great finisher with the ability to burn defenders for pace, but a player whose game is about more than just scoring.

Returning to the side will be a fit again Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul and they will look to get maximum game time.
