 T HC declines to shut schools, but e-class must run


SagarKumar.Mutha@timesgroup.com

Hyderabad: The Telangana high court, while refusing to stop physical classes entirely, on Thursday told the state to keep open the option of online classes in schools for parents unwilling to send students.
Advocate general BS Prasad assured the court that online classes for government school students would be made available through their T-SAT channel.

Resuming the hearing in Covid PILs on Thursday, a bench also said that it was not in favour of any restrictions on livelihoods of poor people.
“We are for Covid-appropriate behaviour, not blanket restrictions,” the bench said. Senior counsel Ravi Chander said: “The third wave is not yet over. A squad must inspect schools and ensure social distance nor ms are followed. ”

Another counsel, K Pavan Kumar, pointed out that the state’s health bulletins have stopped referring to age groups. “The column on children is conspicuous by its absence,” he said.

When Kumar complained about state not setting up  adequate children’s hospitals, the bench pointed out that government’s efforts to set up such facilities were often being blocked.

Counsel Prabhakar complained about the absence of social distance norms at the ongoing Ramanuja millennium celebrations and said that things would not be any different at the Medaram Jatara either.

A grievance was also raised by advocate Zainab Khan saying that the state has not been paying compensation to the kin of those who died of Covid. The bench directed AG to file an affidavit on this and posted thecase toFebruary 28.

New Delhi: Doctors, nurses and paramedical staff of East Delhi Municipal Corporationrun hospitals continued their protest on Thursday as well over non-payment of salaries for four months.

Meanwhile, an order issued by the medical superintendent of Swami Dayanand Hospital, Dr Rajni Khedwal, stated that services of all senior and junior resident doctors  would be considered terminated from February 4 and fresh interviews would be conducted accordingly. The order also stated that all Diplomate of National Board (DNB) residents and contractual doctors would be marked absent.

“We all were there in the protest, none of us went for our duties. We have also asked the administration to speak on our behalf because they are too part of the hospital. Maybe the matter will be resolved tomor row. Unless we get a concrete statement regarding salary, we will continue the protest,”said Dr Atul Jain, president of the hospital’s resident doctors’ association.

Meanwhile, EDMC commissioner Vikas Anand said that no order had been issued regarding the termination/ suspension of the striking doctors’ services so far. The termination order is only for the DNB workers and for the rest of the medical staff, it is based on ‘no work no pay’ as per the SC rule, he clarified.

“The salaries will be provided at the earliest. We have a very good team of doctors at SwamiDayanand Hospital. The only request is that they should join back and resume services,” said the commissioner.

Anand also said that the salaries for the months of February and March would be paid on time. “EDMC is going through a financial crisis and even in such difficult times, the corporation issensitive towards the interests of its employees. Their due arrears will be paid in the month of Mayas per the availabilityof the funds,” he added.

 PhD scholar duped of ₹24L by ‘astrologers’

04.02.2022

New Delhi: A PhD student from Amity University was allegedly duped of Rs 24 lakh by two men who posed as astrologers and told her she will get good luck and fortune. The accused told the woman that she would have to sacrifice a human and also perform puja and rituals.

The woman was searching for astrologers online and got a number. She called and one of the accused picked up, who then asked her to start performing rituals. It was only when she was told to  sacrifice a human that she realised she had been duped. 

The two men have been arrested by the cops. They said that their families are also into astrology, but due to loss of business during Covid, they started duping people in order to get more money. Police have seized seven debit cards, cheque books and mobile phones used in the commission of the crime.

 The accused have been identified as Tanish and Gaurav, and were arrested from Rajasthan and Punjab. The woman had complained that due to some personal issues in her life and career, she was feeling depressed and suffering from anxiety, which led her to search for astrologers. “She was surfing the web, where she came across a page operating in the name of Amrita Devi, and through the contact details on the page, she contacted the fraudsters,who were pretending to be tantriks capable of solving all problems. 

Thecomplainant discussed her issues with the accused in the hope of finding a solution through any ritual. The accused assured her that the rituals costing Rs 24 lakh will solve her problems,” said KPS Malhotra, DCP (cyber cell).

He added, “She agreed for the rituals and gave payments in installments. Gradually, she was duped of Rs 24 lakh. The complainant didn’t find any relief and asked for the reason. The accused told her that the God/Devtas are asking for a human sacrifice, or more rituals, which would cost Rs 20 lakh more. ”

The accused also revealed that they are cousins.
