Cerebral palsy is a condition that impairs coordination of muscles, usually caused by damage to the brain prior to or at birth or during the first few years after birth when the brain is developing. Damage to the white matter of the brain can cause cerebral palsy before birth. More than 17 million people are living with cerebral palsy (CP) in the world.
Every year on October 6 World Cerebral Palsy Day (WCPD) is observed.
Microsoft told its management team in an email that Zain had passed away. The message asked managers to keep the family in their thoughts and prayers while providing space for them to grieve privately.
Since taking over as CEO in 2014, Satya has focused on designing products like AI, learning tools, and Eye control to better serve users with disabilities and referred to lessons he learned Parenting Zain. Last year, As part of Seattle Children’s Center for Integrative Brain Research, the Children’s Hospital, where Zain received much of his treatment, established the Zain Nadella Endowed Chair in Pediatric Neurosciences with the Nadellas.
“Zain will be remembered for his eclectic taste in music, his bright sunny smile, and the immense joy he brought to his family and all those who loved him,” Children’s Hospital CEO Jeff Sperring Microsoft executives received the message he wrote to his Board of Directors
Flashback
Zain Nadella was born in 1996 with cerebral palsy. “I remember the year 1996 as a thrilling time. My wife, Anu, was 25 and I was 29. My career as an engineer was taking off, while she was building her career as an architect. We were far from our families in India, but settling into our new life together in the Seattle area. Even more exciting, however, was that Anu was pregnant with our first child. In the apartment we were renting next to the Microsoft campus, we spent months busily preparing for his arrival, decorating a nursery, putting plans in place for Anu to return to her career, envisioning how our weekends and holidays would change…. We were ready to add a new joy to our life,” Satya said in the blog
About the issues faced during the pregnancy of Anu, his wife, he wrote, “One night, during the thirty-sixth week of her pregnancy, Anu noticed that the baby was not moving as much as she was accustomed to. So we went to the emergency room of a local hospital in Bellevue. We thought it would be just a routine checkup, little more than new parent anxiety. I distinctly remember feeling annoyed by the wait times we experienced in the emergency room. But upon examination, the doctors were alarmed enough to order an emergency cesarean section. Zain was born at 11:29 p.m. on August 13, 1996, all of three pounds. He did not cry.”
“….. Little did I know then how profoundly our lives would change. Throughout the next couple of years, we learned more about the damage caused by in utero asphyxiation, and how Zain would require a wheelchair and be reliant on us because of severe cerebral palsy. I was devastated,” Satya told
The Motherly Love of Anu.
It is important to mention how Satya felt when zain was born in that condition and he didn’t hide his thoughts like others would and talked about his wife about how empathetic and caring she is, I think that’s why mothers are so close to their children no matter what. He wrote “To say that period was difficult is an understatement. One of the things I remember most clearly, however, is how Anu’s reaction to Zain’s birth was immediately so different from mine. For Anu, it was never about what this meant for her — it was always about what it meant for Zain and how we could best care for him. Rather than asking “why us?” she instinctually felt his pain before her own.Watching her in those first few days, weeks and beyond taught me a lot. Over time, Anu helped me understand that nothing had happened to me or her, but something had happened to Zain”
The Waqf Board has recently laid claim to at least 53 historical monuments in Karnataka, a state currently under Congress governance. This claim covers prominent sites such as the Gol Gumbaz, Ibrahim Rauza, Bara Kaman, as well as forts in Bidar and Kalaburagi. Among the 53 monuments, a significant majority—43—are located in Vijayapura, a city that was once the capital of the Adil Shahi dynasty. The remaining sites include six monuments in Hampi and four in the Bengaluru Circle.
According to a Deccan Chronicle report, the Waqf Board in Vijayapura first declared 43 centrally protected monuments as its own in 2005. This claim was made during Mohammad Mohsin’s tenure as Principal Secretary of the Health and Family Welfare Department (Medical Education). During that time, Mohsin also served as Chairman and Deputy Commissioner of the Waqf Board in Vijayapura. He asserted that this claim was backed by “authentic documentary evidence” and was subsequently acknowledged in a government gazette notification issued by the Revenue Department.
The Waqf Board has reportedly leveraged the Record of Rights and Government’s Certificate, documents typically issued to property owners, to establish its claim. However, by law, ownership of a property by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) means it cannot be de-notified or transferred to another entity. This restriction is established under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains (AMASR) Act and Rules of 1958, which strictly prohibits any such transfer.
“While the ASI holds legal ownership of the land and monuments, the encumbrance has been recorded in favor of the Waqf authority,” states a Right to Information (RTI) response obtained by Deccan Chronicle. This transfer of rights appears to have occurred without ASI consultation, raising legal and procedural concerns.
An ASI official revealed that a joint survey of the monuments was conducted in 2012, during which the Waqf Board was asked to provide evidence for its ownership claims. At that time, the Board did not present any documentation supporting its claims. Yet, the ASI official reports that 43 of these sites are now considered “encroached” by the Vijayapura Waqf Board, leading to a range of modifications that compromise their historical value.
“The 43 monuments in Vijayapura are being defaced, with repairs using plaster and cement that violate conservation standards. Modern additions such as fans, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, and toilets have been added to these monuments. Some areas have even been occupied by shopkeepers,” the official emphasized, pointing out how these changes have adversely impacted tourism and the preservation of these sites.
The encroachments, which have remained unresolved since 2007, persist despite direct instructions from the Union Ministry of Culture to the Karnataka Chief Secretary, the Vijayapura Deputy Commissioner, and the Minorities Welfare Department. This ongoing issue raises questions about the stewardship of Karnataka’s cultural heritage, as the state’s historic sites face pressures from both modern encroachments and competing ownership claims.
A dangerous situation unfolded in Bhayandar on Wednesday when police officers were met with violent resistance while attempting to evict a family from their rented flat. The Choubey family, who had been accused of refusing to vacate the premises despite the lease expiring in September 2023, escalated the situation to a shocking level.
When police arrived at the Geeta Nagar residential complex to conduct a panchnama, the family initially resorted to intimidation tactics, hurling utensils at the officers. However, the confrontation took a more sinister turn when they threw boiling water at the police, causing severe burn injuries to four constables, one officer, and a panch.
Reinforcements were immediately dispatched to the scene, leading to the arrest of three members of the Choubey family – the parents and their 26-year-old son. Their daughter remains at large.
The incident has raised serious concerns about the safety of law enforcement officials while carrying out their duties. Investigations are ongoing to determine the exact circumstances surrounding the incident and to apprehend the remaining suspect.
This shocking event underscores the potential dangers faced by law enforcement personnel when dealing with volatile situations.
