This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.Today is the 12th of August and here are the headlines.After the US-based short-seller Hindenburg Research on Saturday made a series of allegations against SEBI Chairperson Madhabi Puri Buch, Sebi on Sunday came out in Buch's defence and said the regulator has adequate internal mechanisms to address issues related to conflict of interest, which include disclosure framework and provision for recusal. In the first official reaction from the Ministry of Finance on the Hindenburg revelations against Sebi Madhabi Puri Buch, Economic Affairs Secretary Ajay Seth said there is “nothing further to add” by the government on the issue as both the regulator and the concerned person have given the statements.In a powerful display of outrage and solidarity, major government hospitals across Delhi are set to indefinitely halt all elective services from Monday in response to the brutal rape and murder of a young junior doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata. Resident doctors protesting in West Bengal on Sunday night demanded a fast-track judicial inquiry into the case, the resignation of the principal, dean, and other authorities, proper compensation to the victim's family, and an apology from the Kolkata police. The case has sparked nationwide protests.After meeting the family of the doctor who was raped and murdered at the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today called for the case to be cracked quickly and said she would demand the death penalty for the perpetrators. “We are trying our best to solve the case. I don't know how this type of incident can happen in a hospital. If there are more accused and all are not arrested by Sunday, we will hand over the case to the CBI — even though their success rate is low." Banerjee also said she would demand the death penalty for the perpetrators.The Ministry of Education today announced the National Institutional Ranking Framework 2024. IIT-Madras tops in engineering and overall categories in India and IISc Bengaluru is the top university in the country.

The old tech adage goes that you should move fast and break things, but moving fast could mean you could be leaving some of your users behind. According to our guest, the way we do design today is “broken.”On this episode of the Georgian Impact Podcast, we talk to Alwar Pillai, the CEO of Fable, a leading accessibility platform powered by people with disabilities. While many companies focus on trying to build for at least 80% of people, Alwar says, trying to build for people at the margins can lead to better design. “You suddenly are creating a product that is adaptable, more personable, more usable, and more customizable, which in turn makes the products accessible to everyone.”In our podcast, she talks about how companies can avoid just “checking a box” and actually get proactive about inclusive design. What you'll hear about: Alwar's journey into accessible design Why inclusive design builds better productsOvercoming biases in UX design The mindset and approach needed to build inclusivity into design Case studies from FableHow Fable works with enterprise clientsWhat Fable is doing with its Series A

Talk : RAJEEV IRINJALAKUDA MUKUNDAMALA

This is a poem to draw attention to the problem of smoke pollution caused by agricultural waste burning. Growing up on the Indian plains, I remember that the skies were clear and the nightime always offered lovely views of the heavenly skies. As cities sprawled and developed closer to farmland, things changed. In New Delhi - the (ex) city beautiful, pollution from automobiles, combined with smoke from agrowaste burning, combines to provide a choking smog hanging over the city all winter long. A few years back, I stayed at a 14th century ex-Maharajah's Hill Fort in the Princely state of Alwar, and observed agro burning from a vantage point. My poem - Hill Fort Kesroli - laments the tramsformation of the skies from blue to black, from starlit to smoky, from clear to opaque.

That is what the Breeders Academy is all about! There’s a lot of great nuggets of information that I know you will not want to miss.

Guest Shakil Khan, Prominent Banker, writer, columnist and Voice Over artist. Sharing his views on Great Poet Mirza Ghalib. Hosted by Wasif Burney, Produced by Wow Be creatives For Wow Be Podcast. Mirza Ghalib was born in Kala Mahal, Agra into a family of Mughals who moved to Samarkand (in modern-day Uzbekistan) after the downfall of the Seljuk kings. His paternal grandfather, Mirza Qoqan Baig, was a Seljuq Turk who had immigrated to India from Samarkand during the reign of Ahmad Shah (1748–54).[6] He worked in Lahore, Delhi and Jaipur, was awarded the sub-district of Pahasu (Bulandshahr, UP) and finally settled in Agra, UP, India. He had four sons and three daughters. Mirza Abdullah Baig and Mirza Nasrullah Baig were two of his sons. Mirza Abdullah Baig (Ghalib's father) married Izzat-ut-Nisa Begum, an ethnic Kashmiri, and then lived at the house of his father-in-law. He was employed first by the Nawab of Lucknow and then the Nizam of Hyderabad, Deccan. He died in a battle in 1803 in Alwar and was buried at Rajgarh (Alwar, Rajasthan).[8] Back then, Ghalib was a little over 5 years of age. He was then raised by his Uncle Mirza Nasrullah Baig Khan, but in 1806, Nasrullah fell off an elephant and died from related injuries. At the age of thirteen, Ghalib married Umrao Begum, daughter of Nawab Ilahi Bakhsh (brother of the Nawab of Ferozepur Jhirka). He soon moved to Delhi, along with his younger brother, Mirza Yousuf, who had developed schizophrenia at a young age and later died in Delhi during the chaos of 1857. None of his seven children survived beyond infancy. After his marriage, he settled in Delhi. In one of his letters he describes his marriage as the second imprisonment after the initial confinement that was life itself. The idea that life is one continuous painful struggle which can end only when life itself ends, is a recurring theme in his poetry. One of his couplets puts it in a nutshell --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wow-be-podcast/message

With a sign put up by the Archaeological Survey of India prohibiting visitors post-sundown, the 17th-century Bhangarh Fort stands tall, unbeaten and grim in Rajasthan's Alwar district. While it was once a grand architectural marvel—built by local ruler Raja Bhagwant Das—today, the sprawling fort and its immediate premises are known as the most haunted site in India. The history of the fort dates back to centuries. Built-in the 17th Century in Rajasthan, the Bhangarh Fort is an ancient specimen. It was believed to have been erected by Man Singh I, one of the Navratnas of Akbar's court for his son Madho Singh. The first legend claims that a king named Madho Singh raised the Bhangarh fort after obtaining due permission from an ascetic named Bala Nath who lived there; having agreed to a condition which said that the shadow of the fort must never fall upon the home of the ascetic. But as fate would have it, one of the ambitious successors of Madho Singh added to the fortifications vertically, thereby causing its ominous shadow to engulf the abode of the ascetic. Lo and Behold, once it came to pass, the fort was doomed within no time. The alleged prophecy stood fulfilled, and the Bhangarh Fort became haunted. A second legend behind the Bhangarh Fort haunted, more popular than the first one, claims that Princess Ratnavati of Bhangarh was responsible for the apocalyptic situation which befell the fort. A local black magician fell in love with her (the princess is believed to have been very beautiful) and once tried to bewitch a cosmetic she was supposed to use, to make her fall in love with him. The princess smelled suspicion and foiled the entire conspiracy of the black magician by pouring the bewitched cosmetic over a massive stone boulder, which then supposedly crushed the 'Tantrik' to death. Before the magician breathed his last, he placed a curse upon the entire landscape that no soul would ever be able to live in peace there. The whole landscape around the Bhangarh Fort has been haunted since. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/abhishek-tiwari007/message

A Dalit man beaten to death in Uttarakhand’s Tehri Garhwal; a 18-year-old Dalit girl gang-raped in Thanaghazi in Rajasthan’s Alwar district; stones hurled at a Dalit wedding procession in Gujarat’s Aravalli district - these are some of the crimes that have taken place in the past few weeks, even as the country was in middle of, as the cliche goes, the ‘festival of democracy’. These aren’t isolated incidents. According to the National Crime Records Bureau, crimes against Dalits have increased by 25 percent between 2006 and 2016 and the trend has been continuing since then. Subjected to physical attacks as well as more day-to-day forms of humiliation, there is a simmering anger among Dalits across the India. While the anger goes beyond politics, in this election it appears to be mostly directed towards the ruling BJP.

The latest episode of Reporters Without Orders features our host Cherry Agarwal, along with Amit Bhardwaj, Rohin Verma, two-time Ramnath Goenka awardee Rahul Kotiyal, and Anoo Bhuyan from The Wire.The podcast kicks off with a discussion on media's narrative around Akbar Khan's lynching in Alwar. “If you go through our story, we have actually demolished the police's version of what happened that night, point by point," says Amit.

This week’s NL Hafta features an in-house panel with Anand Vardhan, Abhinandan Sekhri, Madhu Trehan, and Manisha Pande. We discuss the No Confidence Motion, the Alwar lynching, the Maratha reservation protests, and the recently concluded Pakistan elections.The panel opens with a discussion on the Pakistan elections. Anand offers his views, “What would also be a bit difficult for him, is that he is not controlling Punjab... I think Imran is a creature of ambition, he will not go away without taking his trophy. He took it at the cost of being controlled by the Army.”Madhu adds, “The saddest part about Pakistan is that nobody has been able to dislodge the army, whether it’s a dictator or behind-the-scenes.”Anand then speaks on how cow protection became a political process. "I think it is the result of a very fragile social contract between a community which considers cow as a food and a community which considers it as a bovine resource and a religious deity also. “I think lynching is mainstream, and it has nothing to do with the numbers. It has to do with its approval on primetime by party spokespersons”, comments Abhinandan.“There’s only a specific kind of crime that gets state sanction that has people like Yogi Adityanath say that cows are important, but humans are also important. N number of statements have come out saying that this will keep happening until you don’t protect cows,” says Manisha.The panel then discusses the motivations behind the No Confidence Motion that was raised in Parliament last week. “It’s such an obviously defeatable motion, that one has to think of conspiracies…did the BJP tell them to do it to reinforce their hold over Parliament and the country?” wonders Madhu. On why the motion was admitted, Anand remarks, “The ruling dispensation wanted the motion to be defeated, and the general perception is that it provided a kind of political messaging platform in the penultimate year of the general elections, from which the BJP could orchestrate or generalize the oratory skills of the PM."The panel then discusses the rift between the Shiv Sena and the BJP, Karan Thapar, Rahul Gandhi’s Q/A session with 100 women journalists, and the Maratha reservation protests.For more, listen in!

The police from Alwar took more than 3 hours to reach the nearest hospital, while taking a critically injured victim of lynching, Akbar Khan, in Ramgarh, Rajasthan on saturday. As the police first preferred to relocate the cows recovered and were taken to its shelter which was 10 kmns away from the incident. Where as the Community health centre was just 6kmns away. The Rajasthan police is now under severe criticism in the manner in which the department handled the Alwar Mob Lynching case. The seriousness of the gov towards the increasing mob lynching cases was assessed the by the statement of the Union Minister from Rajasthan Arjun Ram Meghwal, who says, "this isnt a single incident. You have to trace this back in history. what happened with Sikhs in 1984 was the biggest mob lynching of this nations's history." Seriously? is this even the time to play the "blame game" when the highest judicial body has directed the government to take strict action against this increasing cases of lynching in the name of just "rumours"? A man was beaten up, he was left to die, the state police deemed it for it gave its first priority to the cows, had a cup of tea and snacks on the way and then 3 hours later admitted the victim to the hospital which was just 20 mins away, where he was declared dead. So one wonders. who killed Akhbar khan ? the mob or the state

Community Led Total Sanitation as colonial hangover, how to poop while on the trail, shoehorning sanitation inside other sectors, and the importance of sunblock. Shawn “The Puru” Shafner spends an hour with anthropologist and Emory University PhD candidate Jennifer Barr. Jennifer spent 13 months living in Delhi and writing case studies of NGOs including Sulabh, India’s toilet-building monolith, and Safai Karmachari Andolan (SKA), a grassroots organization dedicated to the liberation and rehabilitation of all persons engaged in manual scavenging. It left her wondering: do current international development practices put human dignity and wellbeing at the center of their work? Where might colonial history and modern biases be skewing our attempts to do good? Hear Jennifer’s findings PLUS reasons why NGOs should use the word “shit,” and why the wise stop trying to “change the world” and instead focus on making small, human-centered improvements with gentleness, compassion and love.

In Rajasthan's Alwar, a diary farmer, Pehlu Khan was killed by a cow vigilante group affiliated to the Vishwa Hindu Parishad and the Bajrang Dal, on the suspicion that he was smuggling cows.
