Khushi Thapa, Mumbai Uncensored, 13th July, 2022:

It has been 13 years since Mumbai, the city of dreams went through a tragic nightmare. Within just 11 minutes, three bomb explosions shook the capital of Maharashtra killing at least 25 people and injuring more than 125 others.

Between 6:54 and 7:05 pm, three coherent bomb explosions in Mumbai’s Zaveri Bazar, Opera House, and Dadar neighborhoods sparked havoc and disaster. Days and hours were marked by the tragic deaths of 26 innocent civilians and the injury of an additional 130 others. It jolted India.

Zaveri Bazaar, one of Mumbai’s busiest areas, encountered the first explosion at 6:54 p.m when the bomb was planted on a motorcycle.

The second target of the bomb blast was Opera House, where the bomb was hidden in a lunch box, which exploded at 6:55 pm.

The third device was placed on an electric pole at the bus stand near a school in Dadar and exploded at 7:06 pm

Thereafter, efforts were made to bring the heinous perpetrators to justice. The concerns about who was responsible for the brutal attacks and why those three targets were picked were more prevalent. There was a media scramble to learn more information on anything from the Indian Mujaheddin’s involvement to the Taliban’s plot hatched in the Mumbai underworld to the Kashmir connection to the explosions.

On January 23, 2012, the Mumbai Police declared that the case had been resolved with the capture of two young guys from the Darbhanga area of Bihar. Nadeem Akhtar Ashfaq Sheikh (23) and Naqi Ahmed Wasi Ahmed Sheikh were the people that were arrested (22). The co-founder of the Indian Mujaheddin, Yasin Bhatkal, was identified as the attack’s mastermind by the Mumbai Police’s ATS section.

The Maharastra ATS filed a charge sheet against Nadeem Shaikh, Naqee Ahmed, Haroon Naik, and Kanwar Pathrija in May 2012. The charge sheet also included the names of Yasin Bhatkal, Riyaz Bhatkal, Tehseen Akhtar, Waqas Ibrahim Sad, Danish, and Muzaffar Kolah, a resident of Dubai. Abdul Mateen Fakki was captured by Mumbai ATS in July 2014 at the Dabolim Airport in Goa, after he had arrived from Dubai.

The mastermind behind the cowardly attack Yasin Bhatkal had already been sentenced to death in 2016 in connection to the 2013 Hyderabad blasts. 11 years later, the prosecution of these accused had not made much progress and the case still continues due to the accused being lodged at different prisons on different charges, besides being accused for the bomb blasts.

A wave of public outrage has erupted in Badlapur, Thane, after the shocking revelation of an alleged sexual assault on two kindergarten students at a local school. The incident has sparked widespread protests, leading to the blockage of railway tracks and a strong response from the state government.

The Incident:

The horrifying incident came to light when two young girls, aged three and four, reported pain in their private parts after attending school. The parents of one of the victims, concerned by their daughter’s distress, questioned her and discovered that she had been sexually assaulted by a male attendant at the school. The accused, 23-year-old Akshay Shinde, was reportedly employed on a contractual basis as a cleaner. It was revealed that the assault occurred when the girls went to use the toilet, a space shockingly unmonitored by female staff, a glaring oversight by the school administration.

Public Outcry:

As news of the assault spread, parents and local citizens were overcome with anger and fear for the safety of their children. On Tuesday, they stormed the school, expressing their fury by vandalizing the premises. The protests quickly escalated, with demonstrators blocking railway tracks at Badlapur railway station, disrupting train services from as early as 8:30 am. The protest turned violent at points, with some agitators hurling stones, but the situation was eventually brought under control by the police.

Government Response:

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has taken swift action in response to the incident. He has ordered the police to impose charges of attempted rape against the accused, alongside provisions under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. Recognizing the gravity of the situation, the Chief Minister announced that a special public prosecutor would be appointed to fast-track the case, ensuring that justice is served promptly.

School Management Under Scrutiny:

The school management has also come under intense scrutiny following the incident. The principal, a class teacher, and a female attendant have been suspended as investigations continue. The Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) has warned of strict legal action if the school’s management is found negligent or complicit in the crime. Additionally, the CMO has called for a thorough review of the implementation of Sakhi Savitri committees in schools, which are intended to protect and support students.

Conclusion:

The Badlapur incident has sent shockwaves through the community, igniting a conversation about the safety of children in educational institutions. As protests continue and investigations proceed, the public is demanding accountability and swift justice for the victims. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of vigilance and proper oversight in schools to protect the most vulnerable members of society.

 The brutal rape and murder of a 31-year-old post-graduate trainee doctor within the hallowed halls of RG Kar Medical College Hospital has sent shockwaves through the nation. The incident, a stark violation of trust and safety, has exposed deep-rooted systemic failures in protecting women, even in institutions dedicated to healing.

The victim, a beacon of hope and dedication, met a tragic end in a place meant to nurture life. Her lifeless body, bearing the horrific marks of violence, was discovered in a seminar hall, a sanctuary transformed into a chamber of horrors. The brutality of the crime has ignited a firestorm of outrage, with the medical community leading the charge in demanding justice. The protests that have erupted across West Bengal are a testament to the collective grief and anger over this heinous act.

The arrest of Sanjay Roy, a civic volunteer with access to the hospital, marks a significant step in the investigation. However, the case has raised critical questions about security protocols, the vetting process for hospital staff, and the overall environment in which healthcare professionals operate. The incident has underscored the urgent need for comprehensive measures to prevent such tragedies from recurring.

Beyond the immediate shock and outrage, the case has brought to the forefront the broader issue of women’s safety in public spaces. The hospital, a place traditionally perceived as a safe haven, has been exposed as vulnerable. This incident serves as a stark reminder that no institution, however revered, is immune to the pervasive threat of violence against women.

The medical fraternity, already overburdened with the challenges of healthcare delivery, is now grappling with the added trauma of insecurity. Doctors and nurses, who dedicate their lives to saving lives, are demanding a safe working environment. Their protests are a call for urgent action to address the systemic issues that allowed this tragedy to occur.

As the nation mourns the loss of a young life, the focus now shifts to ensuring justice for the victim and preventing similar crimes in the future. The case serves as a grim reminder that even the most sacred of spaces can become battlegrounds for those seeking to inflict harm. It is imperative that the authorities conduct a thorough investigation, bringing the perpetrators to justice and implementing stringent measures to prevent such heinous acts from recurring.

The murder of the young doctor is a tragedy of immense proportions, but it is also a wake-up call. It demands a comprehensive response that addresses not only the immediate concerns of safety but also the underlying issues of gender inequality and violence against women.
