Pratyusha Banerjee, TV actor of Balika Vadhu fame, committed suicide by hanging at her home in Mumbai on Friday. However, it seems like there is a lot more to the story than what is being let out. Pratyusha was declared dead at around 7:15 pm when she was brought into the Kokila-

ben Hospital in Andheri by her boyfriend Rahul Raj Singh. According to a said. Rahul has been detained by the police for questioning. Mumbai Po-lice DCP Vikram Desh-pande said, “The search is going on in the flat where apparently the pri-ma facie suicide has tak-en place, EDR has been registered and we are

doing investigation. It is too early to say the cause of the death.” The actor’s parents reached Mum-bai on Saturday. They will be taking Banerjee’s body after the autopsy is completed.Mumbai po-lice spokesperson Dhan-anjay Kulkarni said her body was found around 5pm. Her parents, who were in Jamshedpur took a flight to Mumbai soon after the news reached them, Banerjee’s co-ac-tors said.Her body was sent to Siddharth Hos-pital in Goregaon for the post-mortem around midnight. An accidental death report (ADR) was registered at Bangur-nagar police station.

ally declared criminals like Dawood Ibrahim and Chhota Shakeel”. Vanzara is confined to Mumbai as per the bail condition imposed first by Bombay High Court while granting him bail in the Sohrabud-din Shaikh encounter case. Later, the special CBI court also barred him from entering Gujarat while granting him bail in the Ishrat Jahan case. Last month, the Bombay High Court lifted this condition and allowed him to leave Mumbai. However, due to the condition imposed in the Ishrat Jahan case, Van-zara had moved before Ahmedabad special CBI court.

the injured people in the Calcutta Medical College and Hospital and said he had come here to extend his support to the victims. “There has been a trage-dy here.I have come here to give them whatever little support I can pro-vide,” Gandhi said after meeting the injured in the hospital. When asked to comment on the al-legations of lapses in the construction of the flyover, Gandhi said, “I have come here to meet the injured. I’ll not talk

about politics.” Gandhi, accompanied by state Congress President Adhir Chowdhury and party leader Deepa Dasmunsi, earlier talked to NDRF officials at the accident site. An under-construc-tion flyover collapsed in the city leaving at least 24 dead on Thursday. Police last night arrested three top officials of the Hy-derabad based construc-tion company which was building the flyover and slapped murder charges on them.

human being has the right to chant for mother or for the motherland,” she told reporters at the airport in Rajkot before leaving for Dwarka. Motherland is no less than one’s mother, she said. Darul Uloom Deo-band on Friday stated that Muslims should refrain from saying “Bharat Mata Ki Jai” as it was against the tenets of Islam. The controversy started after RSS chief Mohan Bhag-wat’s comment that every-body should say the slo-gan which was opposed by MIM leader and MP Asaduddin Owaisi.

26 other supporters have been detained by police to avoid any clash with villagers, said Addition-al SP Pankaj Deshmukh. “We were pushed back by villagers…it is a murder of Indian con-stitution…the govt has failed in its duty…we will file FIR against the chief minister,” Desai said even as she and her brigade members sat on a dharna inside the temple. Meanwhile, the police remained mute specta-tors as the whole drama was being enacted. Over two dozen activists of

Bhumata Ranragini Brigade led by Trupti Desai on Saturday left for Shani Shinganapur temple in Ahmednagar district where tradition bans women from enter-ing the shrine’s sacred platform. Describing the HC verdict as a victory for women’s campaign against gender bias, De-sai on Friday announced that she and her follow-ers belonging to the city-based women outfit would head to the ancient temple Saturday itself. Around 25 activists proceeded for the temple Saturday morn-

ing in 2-3 small vehicles. “After the High Court it-self ruled in womens’ fa-

vour, we are determined to reach the sacred chau-thara of the temple and we

are sure that police will not restrict us en route,” Desai said before leaving

Pune. On being told that if a temple does not allow any person, irrespective of gender, inside the sanc-tum sanctorum, then this Act (Maharashtra Hindu Place of Worship (Entry Authorisation) Act 1956) and its provisions will not be of any help, Desai said, “In case of Shani Shinganapur, the temple trust used to allow men at ‘chauthara’ and only after our agitation started, they had put restrictions on males. So we should not be restricted.” Desai also urged Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadan-vis to issue directives to the local administration and police to cooperate with them to go inside the temple peacefully and allow them to worship Lord Shani, whose idol is placed at the ‘chauthara’.

QUOTE OF THE

DAYKolkata flyover collapse: The builder must pay

A flyover has collapsed killing 25 people and in-juring more than 80 people and no one is respon-sible for this. The builder has callously called it an act of God and a political bun fight is in full flood. The collapse of public structures is nothing new in India. During the monsoon they take place with regularity in Mumbai. But the Kolkata tragedy is a chronicle of a disaster foretold. Engineers had cautioned against the rusting framework of the fly-over’s superstructure which has been pending com-pletion for a long time. This has been compounded by the humid conditions in the city. The Kolkata flyover was already in a dilapidated condition even though it had not been completed. There are a host of reasons why public structures tend to either col-lapse or have a short shelf life. The material used is substandard with builders being notorious for cutting corners. In many building collapses, the foundations have been found to be not well laid and the materials used unable to withstand either the vagaries of the weather or the sheer weight of the construction. And invariably, an element of politi-cal brinkmanship enters the picture. In the Kolkata case, political grandstanding has been heightened as the state is poll-bound. Even as rescue workers are battling to save those trapped and who might still be alive, the political blame game is afoot. All this is to detract from the task at hand which is suc-cour to the victims in the form of compensation for the dead and injured. Contracts for constructions like flyovers should contain clauses to ensure that builders stick to a timeline. This way there will be fewer cost overruns and minimal chances of wear and tear on the building materials. This is some-thing the political class can ensure rather than en-gage in verbal fisticuffs after the event. This sad turn of events provides the right opportunity to re-view public structures in our metros. Many of them are in poor condition and require retrofitting. In-stead of rushing to build even more flyovers and overhead passes and buildings, the existing ones should be made safer. The builder in the Kolkata case cannot get away with lofty pronouncements that it is an act of God. It is not. He will have to make restitution for this tragedy. There has to be a concerted effort to enforce more rigorous checks before a project is sanctioned and also ensure that there are fewer delays in completion as well as reg-ular maintenance inspections. This, rather than po-litical mudslinging, would be a practical way of en-suring that such calamities are minimised in future.

Two days ago, millions of Indians were heartbro-ken after its national side lost to the West Indies in the second semifinal of the ICC World T20 at Mumbai. The match was a good one. India bat-ted well, scored over 190 runs, and the West Indies, despite some early hic-cups, comfortably chased the total with three balls remaining. India captain Mahindra Singh Dhoni admitted during the press conference after the match that India was 20-30 runs short, given the wicket at Wankhede Stadium is

flat and chasing is easy, as the dew factor comes into play. Two instances during the West Indian chase, however, proved to be turning points.

this question: why are on-field umpires not check-ing to see if a bowler oversteps? Why are they only referring to the third umpire to check if a no-ball has been bowled in case of a wicket? True, there was a no-ball call from the square leg um-pire when India was bat-ting, but that was because Rohit Sharma, who was on strike, pulled ball above waist height for six. In his books One Day Wonders and Runs In Ru-ins, former Indian open-ing batsman Sunil Gavas-kar hailed his teammate Kapil Dev and then Paki-stan captain Imran Khan as the most disciplined bowlers he knew because they would try and avoid bowling no balls even while they would bowl in the nets.
