A 30-year-old woman, who lodged a complaint with police two days ago alleging that she was gangraped by her neighbour and two of his friends, on Sunday told the police that she had lodged a false complaint. The police have sent the details of the FIR and the victim’s latest statement for legal opinion.

The complainant, who has been working as a domestic help, was a divorcee from Golconda area. Two days ago, she lodged a complaint with Golconda police alleging that a grocery store owner from her neighbourhood and two of his friends had sexually assaulted her a month ago after taking her out in a car on the pretext of showing a house for rent.

“The complainant alleged that about a month ago, while she was looking for a house on rent, her neighbour and his two friends convinced her to accompany him in the car to see a house in Shaheen Nagar area. She alleged that the trio had tied her limbs and raped her in the car,” Golconda inspector K Chandrasekhar Reddy said.

The complainant also alleged that her neighbour threatened her with a gun and warned her to not step out of the house, forcing her to remain indoors for a month. “They also took my pictures in the phone and threatened to show them to others if I inform anyone about the assault,” the complainant told police.

Based on the complaint, police had registered a gang rape case under Section 376 (2) (g) of the IPC and sent the victim for medical examination.

“On Sunday, the complainant came to the police station and gave a statement saying that she had lodged a false complaint against the neighbour as he refused to give her Rs10,000 when she requested the amount for medical treatment. We have sent the details for legal opinion and based on the advise we will initiate appropriate legal action,” the inspector said.

Hyderabad: 08.11.2021

The opening rank for many institutions has dipped this year in the Joint Seat Allocation Authority 2021 for engineering admissions.

As per the phase 1 figures, the computer science engineering course at the National Institute of Technology, Warangal opened at 703 and closed at 2,622. Last year, the institute opened at 541 and closed at 1,739.

“This year, the number of seats in many Indian Institute of Technologies (IIT) have increased following addition of seats in the economically weaker sections. Therefore, many top rankers might have chosen IITs over NITs,” said Ramana Rao, director, NIT, Warangal, adding that it is not the opening rank but the closing rank that determines the quality of students in these institutions.

He added that it is not the opening ranks but the closing ranks that defines the quality of students in these coveted institutions. “In many cases, if a student is not securing a CSE seat in an IIT than he/ she prefers other disciplines such as electrical engineering, civil engineering etc. The brand of IIT is what matters to most of the students,” said Rao. Similarly, computer science course at University of Hyderabad opened at 8,384 and closed at 16,597. Last year, it opened at 7,080 and closed at 13,991.

Tatas to take over, operate Air India by Jan 23 next yr

New Delhi: 08.11.2021 

The countdown for founder Tata Group re-acquiring Air India 68 years after the Maharaja was nationalised has begun. They have to take control and start running AI, AI Express and AI-SATS (in which 50% stake is with the new owners) latest by January 23, 2022 — the “long stop date” as per the share purchase agreement signed with the government last month.

Comments from the Tatas were sought on preparations being made for this transfer of ownership and awaited till the time of going to press. They have so far not spelt out their plans for AI like whether there will be mega airline or a low-cost and a full-service carrier, the management structure and fleet and cabin upgrade plans.

“The long stop date of January 23, 2022, is the outer limit by when Tata’s whollyowned subsidiary Talace has to take over AI. This date has been agreed upon by both the parties (seller government and buyer Tatas),” said people in the know.

“If there is a delay in fulfilling conditions precedent (CP) requirements or disagreement on the closing balance sheet, the long stop date can be extended with mutual consent of both the parties. But that is an option unlikely to be exercised as January 23 was the date agreed upon by both,” they said. Top government officials don’t see AI takeover being delayed and they are trying to ensure the transfer of control takes place by the end of this calendar year itself.
