Video: There One Second, Gone The Next - Building Collapses In Mizoram

A portion of a building perched on a hillside collapsed in a matter of seconds and fell into the valley in Mizoram's capital today.

Dramatic videos of the collapse show the structure standing one second and gone the next while a woman is heard screaming. The falling portion can also be seen taking down parts of the main building with it.

The incident took place in the Zohnuai locality of Aizawl. The building was home to five families, all of whom were evacuated when the structure began to shake. 

An additional 18 families living close to the building have also been evacuated, said officials. Local residents said the road beside which the building stood had developed a crack on June 12. 

Officials said it has been raining on and off in Aizawl, which may have contributed to the building's collapse.

"Era Of Global Warming Ends, Era Of Global Boiling Has Arrived": UN Chief

UN chief Antonio Guterres on Thursday pleaded for immediate radical action on climate change, saying that record-shattering July temperatures show Earth has passed from a warming phase into an "era of global boiling."

Speaking in New York, the secretary-general described the intense heat across the Northern Hemisphere as a "cruel summer."

"For the entire planet, it is a disaster," he said, noting that "short of a mini-Ice Age over the next days, July 2023 will shatter records across the board."

"Climate change is here. It is terrifying. And it is just the beginning. The era of global warming has ended; the era of global boiling has arrived."

The extreme impacts of climate change have been in line with scientists' "predictions and repeated warnings," Guterres said, adding that the "only surprise is the speed of the change."

In the face of "tragic" consequences, he repeated his call for swift and far-reaching action, taking aim once again at the fossil fuel sector.

"The air is unbreathable. The heat is unbearable. And the level of fossil fuel profits and climate inaction is unacceptable," said the former Portuguese prime minister.

"Leaders must lead," he said. "No more hesitancy. No more excuses. No more waiting for others to move first."

Ahead of the Climate Ambition Summit he is set to host in September, Guterres called on developed countries to commit to achieving carbon neutrality as close to 2040 as possible, and for emerging economies as close as possible to 2050.

The "destruction" unleashed by humanity "must not inspire despair, but action," he said, warning that to prevent the worst outcomes humanity "must turn a year of burning heat into a year of burning ambition."

"Women's Reservation Bill Needs Careful Consideration": Minister In Rajya Sabha

The women's reservation bill requires "careful consideration" on the basis of consensus among all political parties before it is brought to Parliament, the government said in Rajya Sabha on Thursday.

In a written reply to a question, Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal said gender justice is an important commitment of the government.

"The issue involved needs careful consideration on the basis of the consensus among all political parties before a Bill for amendment in the Constitution is brought before Parliament," he said.

The women's reservation bill provides for 33 per cent reservation for women in Lok Sabha and state assemblies for 15 years.

The 15th Lok Sabha could not pass the bill and the Constitution (108th Amendment) Bill, which was pending in the lower House since 2010 and lapsed following its dissolution.

According to the law, any bill pending in Lok Sabha lapses with the dissolution of the House. Bills pending in Rajya Sabha are put in the "live register" and remain pending.

The 18-year journey of the women's reservation bill has been marked by high drama and roadblocks in each outing in Parliament before the historic measure cleared the first legislative hurdle in March 2010, when Rajya Sabha passed it during a sitting which saw marshals being used to deal with unruly members.

Protesting Students Confine Presidency University Dean To Office For 2 Days

A section of students of the state-run Presidency University in Kolkata surrounded their dean for over 50 hours, demanding better hostel facilities.

The agitation, which began on Tuesday afternoon, was finally withdrawn today after the university authorities promised to look into the demands of the students, officials said.

After the agitation was withdrawn, Dean of Students Arun Maity left for home. He was not immediately available for comment, but another official said he was physically fine despite being confined to his office for over two days.

Renovation works in some wards of Eden Hostel began in 2015 and are still underway, the university's Students' Federation of India (SFI) unit president Anandarupa Dhar told PTI.

The delay in the works is depriving around 200 students from the economically weaker section of hostel facilities, she said.

The protest was not organised by any student outfit, but by common students of the university, Ms Dhar claimed.

As the authority promised to form a hostel welfare committee to look into the demands, the agitation was withdrawn, said Sk Sahidul, who was protesting outside the dean's office along with 40 other students.

An official said the university is in contact with the state's Higher Education Department and PWD so that the renovation works are completed soon.

Actor Kevin Spacey Found Not Guilty Of 9 Counts In Sex Offences Case

A jury in the UK on Wednesday found Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey not guilty of nine sex offences against four men alleged to have occurred between 2001 and 2013.

Jurors at Southwark Crown Court in south London reached majority decisions on the nine counts, which included sexual assault, after more than 12 hours of deliberations.

The jury began considering their verdicts on Monday, following a weeks-long trial which saw British rock star Elton John give evidence as a witness for Spacey. 

The two-time Oscar winner, who turned 64 on Wednesday, denied seven counts of sexual assault, one count of causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent and one count of causing a person to engage in penetrative sexual activity without consent. 

The prosecution claimed he was a "sexual bully" who revelled in making others feel uncomfortable, including by aggressively grabbing men's crotches.

Spacey called the claims "madness" and a "stab in the back".

The court had heard from the four alleged victims, who cannot be named for legal reasons.

One of them, a former aspiring actor, said he woke up to find Spacey performing a sex act on him, suggesting the actor "drugged" him. 

Spacey was accused of grabbing a victim's crotch "so hard" they nearly came off the road while driving to a fundraising event.

The verdicts in London follow a US court last year dismissing separate sexual allegations in a civil case brought there.

A judge ruled the accusation were not proven after a jury was unconvinced by the evidence presented.

Delhi Police Shares Video Of People Recreating '3 Idiots' Scene, Issues Challan

Stunts on public roads are a hazard for the public as well as the drivers. However, people still perform dangerous stunts and activities just for a few likes on social media. Recently, Delhi Police shared a video on X, formerly Twitter, to deter such people who indulge in such risky driving practices, and promote road safety.

The video shows a man riding a bike with two women passengers as they try to recreate the Jaane Nahi Denge Tujhe track from the movie 3 Idiots featuring Aamir Khan, R Madhavan, and Sharman Joshi. None of them were seen wearing helmets. 

''AAL IZZ NOT WELL if you drive or ride dangerously for the sake of reels,'' the caption of the video read.

See the video here:

AAL IZZ NOT WELL if you drive or ride dangerously for the sake of reels!@dtptraffic #DriveResponsibly pic.twitter.com/JWO3pLDiWv

— Delhi Police (@DelhiPolice) July 24, 2023

The video progressed to reveal a screenshot of the challan (fine) issued to the rider, with a text that reads, ''Jaane tujhe denge nahi bina challan (we won't let you go without a challan.)''

Toward the end of the video, the text reads, ''Don't be an idiot on the roads. Drive responsibly.''

The video has amassed more than 31,000 views, 277 likes, and more than 60 retweets. Reacting to the impactful message, one user said, ''Very nice video.''

Another enquired, ''Is triple riding allowed in case of emergency like a person is very sick or injured n there is no other mode of transport or ambulance available?''

A third said, ''Real Emergency all may support, but don't misuse. Best wishes.''

Last month, Delhi police shared a similar video to educate people about the risk of 'reckless driving.' The video showed a man performing dangerous stunts on a bike with a woman as a pillion rider. The video further showed the man losing balance and falling off the motorbike with a thud along with the woman.

US Congressman Says Majority Of American Sikhs Reject Khalistan Violence

Indian-American Congressman from the State of Illinois, Raja Krishnamoorthi while offering insights into the potential threats presented by Khalistani activists has firmly maintained that Khalistanis are not representative of the broader sentiments of American Sikhs, reported Khalsa Vox.

Significant worries have been raised by the resurgence of the Khalistan movement, which is mostly on social media and in some nations including Canada, the US, the UK, and Australia. This is especially true in light of recent attacks on the Indian consulate in San Francisco. Senior US Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi has expressed his views on the potential dangers posed by Khalistani activists.

Concerning the increasing frequency of these assaults, Mr Krishnamoorthi, who has previously expressed his criticism of the consulate assault, was asked about the impact of the Khalistan movement which is a matter of growing worry given that the attacks are not isolated incidents. There have been reports of incidents in the UK where the Prime Minister has Indian ancestry, and tensions have spread to the US West Coast, as per Khalsa Vox.

Khalsa Vox is a new-age online digest that brings to you the latest in Punjab politics, history, culture, heritage and more.

Mr Krishnamoorthi firmly argued in response that Khalistanis make up a very small percentage of the population. He contends that the opinions of Sikh Americans as a whole are not reflected in the small number of extremist Khalistanis. He is certain that the vast majority of Sikh Americans and Indian Americans, in general, do not accept or condone the violence and intolerance that this outlier minority propagates.

In response to concerns about potential financial assistance and the rising international tensions brought on by Khalistani activism, Mr Krishnamoorthi emphasised the significance of peaceful conflict resolution. He strongly condemned such acts of intolerance and violence, making reference to a recent rally banner that contained the provocative statement "Kill India."

It is notable to mention that attacks by the Khalistani elements on Indian missions across the world have been rising over the course of time. On March 19, earlier this year, a group of Khalistanis vandalised the High Commission and showed disrespect to the Indian National Flag in London.

Such threats and attacks from pro-Khalistani elements rose after the killing of Khalistan Tiger Force chief Nijjar.

A 'Kill India' rally was scheduled by Khalistani elements in Australia, the UK, Canada and even in the US following Nijjar's death.

Mahadayi Water Disputes Tribunal Gets One More Year To Submit Report

The Mahadayi Water Disputes Tribunal established to address water-sharing disputes between Karnataka, Goa and Maharashtra has been granted one-year extension to submit its report and decision.

According to a gazette notification issued on Monday, the tribunal has requested an extension for submitting its further report.

"...the Central Government hereby extends the period of submission of further report by the said Tribunal for a further period of one year with effect from 20th August, 2023," the notification read.

The tribunal was originally required to submit its findings within three years from its constitution but due to various reasons, the deadline has been extended multiple times.

The Centre had initially set the effective date of the tribunal's constitution as August 21, 2013, and accordingly, the deadline for submitting the report was set for August 20, 2016.

Subsequently, the tribunal requested two further extensions, with the deadlines extended to August 20, 2017, and August 20, 2018, respectively.

Goa, Karnataka, Maharashtra, and the central government made additional references to the tribunal, leading to the need for further reports. The deadline for these supplementary reports was also extended on multiple occasions.

The issue of water sharing from the Mahadayi river has been a contentious one between the states concerned.
