VIDEO | In view of the videos of Assam minister Keshab Mahanta's daughter joining a protest against irregularities in the NEET exam, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma (@himantabiswa) says that his Cabinet colleague should not be trolled as "she may not follow her father's political ideology". Reacting to the videos, Sarma on Saturday said, "I don't think we should attack or troll Keshab Mahanta for the protest by his daughter. She may not follow her father's political ideology. Tomorrow when my son will practice law, he may defend someone whom I may not like." He said that once children become adults, their actions should not be linked with their parents. "I do not agree with the slogans she raised. When I meet her next time, I will definitely talk to her about it and try to make her understand that what she said was not right," Sarma said.

STORY | No evidence to show Sanjeev Mukhiya's role in theft or distribution of NEET-UG '24 question paper: CBI The CBI on Thursday said that it did not come across any evidence to establish the involvement of Sanjeev Kumar, alias Sanjeev Mukhiya, in the theft or distribution of the stolen NEET-UG 2024 question paper. In 2024, Bihar Police detected the theft of the NEET-UG question paper and registered a case, the agency said in a statement. “At that stage, prima facie suspicion had emerged against Sanjeev Kumar alias Sanjeev Mukhiya, who may have been involved in the theft, as he was found involved in certain other paper theft/leak cases. Bihar Police accordingly named him as an accused in the FIR,” a CBI spokesperson said. The case was subsequently transferred to the CBI, and during the course of its investigation, the agency identified “each and every person” involved in the theft and onwards distribution of the stolen question paper, along with each beneficiary.

VIDEO | Bhubaneswar: On the CJP protest, Congress leader Santosh Singh Saluja says, "Protesting through democratic means is both a tradition and a right in India. It is completely unjust to subject young men to such brutality when they are staging a protest. If they resort to violence or violate rules, they should certainly be arrested, but what is the justification for a lathicharge? It is reminiscent of British rule where anyone speaking up for their rights or protesting against issues like paper leaks would face a lathicharge, much like what happened during the protests against the Simon Commission. We oppose and condemn this lathi charge. This should not happen in India." (Full video available on PTI Videos -

VIDEO | On Rath Yatra deaths, BJD spokesperson Lenin Mohanty (@DrLeninMohanty1) says, "The Yatra which was held two days back, a stampede occurred because of the officials' mismanagement. They were unable to think, they were unable to plan, and the political force which should guide them, that was not functional. And the result was, three precious lives were lost, more than 300 people got injured. And the situation was such that there was chaos and anarchy at that particular place. The cordon pass which was scheduled to be given to few persons was given to more than three times the people to which, they should have been given. And the result was people died. But unfortunately, the health minister and the law minister took a stand in contradictory to the actual situation. The health minister came forward and told there was no such stampede which had happened, which is wrong. Yesterday, when the post-mortem came out regarding the death of two people, it was clear that their death was because of suffocation in a stampede which has resulted in that particular thing. Now the thing has been exposed. So it is turn of the government to order an inquiry, a judicial inquiry, where the real culprits should be punished. And also, the Law Minister and the Health Minister, they should resign... When this government for three consecutive years is unable to manage a Yatra, how can it manage the state? And that is reflecting in the exact position, they are talking about Lakshmi Puran when the live Lakshmis are being threatened, are being misbehaved, are being targeted, are being robbed. But they are talking about books because they want profit from that. And in the process, the Rath Yatra cult, the cult of Lord Jagannath is being diluted because of this inefficient officers and politicians who are taking decisions now. They are only going for meetings which is fruitless and we expect, a judicial inquiry would prove the right and the wrong and ultimately at least the next year such things shouldn't should not happen." #RathYatra#
