Bihar Polls 2020: All You Need to Know

As temperatures dip in some parts of the country, the political heat is rising in Bihar as polling draws near and political parties give their campaigns one final push. &nbsp;
The election for the 243-seat Bihar assembly is being held in 3 phases &ndash; 71 constituencies will vote in the first phase on October 28, 94 seats will go to polls in the second phase on November 3 and third phase on November 7 will cover 78 assembly seats. The ballots will be counted on November 10. &nbsp;
Around 7.29 crore people including nearly 78 lakh first-time voters will decide the fate of political stalwarts like Nitish Kumar and as well as that of rising sons like Tejashwi Yadav and Chirag Paswan. &nbsp;
Alliances have changed since the last Bihar assembly elections in 2015 which saw the RJD, JD(U) and Congress combine come to power. However, Nitish Kumar walked out of this grand alliance in 2017 to return to the BJP-led NDA fold. He continued as the Chief Minister but BJP&rsquo;s Sushil Kumar Modi replaced RJD&rsquo;s Tejashwi Yadav as the Deputy Chief Minister. &nbsp;
2020 might be the younger Yadav scion&rsquo;s year of vengeance as he takes the field as the chief ministerial candidate of the Congress-RJD Mahagathbandhan. The RJD has bagged the lion&rsquo;s share and will be contesting 144 seats, Congress 70 seats and the CPI-ML, CPI and CPI(M) will be contesting a total of 29 seats. The grand alliance is however a few allies short with Vikasheel Insaan Party and former CM Jiten Manjhi&rsquo;s Hindustani Awam Morcha quitting the alliance and joining NDA. &nbsp;
The ruling coalition may have gained 2 allies but it lost 1 very important ally with Lok Janshakti Party led by late Ram Vilas Paswan&rsquo;s son Chirag Paswan deciding to party ways with NDA in Bihar over differences with Nitish Kumar. While the LJP will fight the polls alone, it will field candidates only against JD(U) and not the BJP.&nbsp;
The saffron party is contesting 110 seats, the JD(U) 115 seats and smaller allies Vikasheel Insaan Party and CM Jiten Ram Manjhi&rsquo;s HAM will be fighting from 11 and 7 seats respectively.&nbsp;
There are other minor political parties and alliances in the fray as well. Former NDA ally Upendra Khushwaha&rsquo;s Rashtriya Lok Samta Party has joined hands with Asaduddin Owaisi&rsquo;s AIMIM. Chandrashekhar Azad&rsquo;s Azad Samaj Party has formed an alliance with MP Pappu Yadav&rsquo;s Jan Adhikar Party. &nbsp;
Whether these smaller parties dampen the Diwali festivities of the bigger ones by dividing their votes or Nitish Kumar beats anti-incumbency to retain his chair or an ailing Lalu Yadav sees his son lead his party to victory will be clear when the EVMs are unlocked on November 10. &nbsp;

UP MLA, son booked for allegedly raping 25-yr-old singer 

UP: NISHAD party MLA Vijay Mishra, who is an ally of the ruling BJP, has been accused of allegedly raping a 25-year-old singer at his house in 2014

A UP MLA, his son and one other person have been booked for allegedly raping a 25-year-old singer, police said. NISHAD party MLA Vijay Mishra, who is an ally of the ruling BJP, has been accused of allegedly raping the singer in 2014 and 2015. The victim had in 2015 alleged that Mishra had called her to his house for a programme, when he raped her and threatened to kill her if she ever spoke about it. She alleged that in 2015, she was raped at a hotel in Varanasi. The victim also claimed that once after raping her, Mishra told his son and nephew to drop her home but, both of them allegedly raped her before taking her back.

Bhadohi, PTI: Three men, including NISHAD party MLA Vijay Mishra and his son, were booked on Sunday for allegedly raping a 25-year-old singer, police said.
NISHAD party is an ally of the ruling BJP.
Bhadohi Superintendent of Police Ram Badan Singh said the singer alleged that in 2014 Mishra had called her to his house for a programme, when he raped her and threatened to kill her if she ever spoke up about the incident.
She alleged that in 2015, she was raped at a hotel in Varanasi. She also claimed that once after raping her, Mishra told his son and nephew to drop her home but, both of them allegedly raped her before taking her back.
The singer lodged a complaint at Gopiganj police station on Sunday after she came to know that Mishra was lodged in Agra jail in connection with a case involving land grabbing. His wife and his son are co-accused in the case.
Mishra was shifted to Agra central jail from Chitrakoot jail around three weeks back.
In August, Vijay Mishra, his wife and son were booked on several serious charges including property grabbing on a complaint by their relative Krishna Mohan Mishra. Ramlali Mishra (wife of the MLA) is out after getting anticipatory bail from high court, while his son is absconding after his bail plea was rejected.
Mishra was arrested by the police from Madhya Pradesh and subsequently jailed.

AIR FORCE ENTERING A TRANSFORMING ERA: IAF CHIEF

As China remains hostile, India is going in for boosting its combat drones capabilities. The Army, Navy and Air Force have collectively come to the conclusion that India should opt for a weaponised drone rather than reconnaissance and surveillance drones. India had first expressed its interest in the armed drones in 2015, and the procurement had been in the works since then. The Services now want the MQ-9B Sea Guardian, manufactured by General Atomics, USA, which has 40-hour endurance with a maximum altitude of 40,000 feet and payload or weapon carrying capacity of over 2.5 tons including air-to-surface missiles and laser-guided bombs. MoD officials, on conditions of anonymity said, &ldquo;We are in negotiations with the Trump administration, which is willing to provide India with the latest armed drone technology. In this, it is the prohibitive cost of the system that is a hurdle, not the Trump administration.&rdquo;

Transgender Rights In India & The World

On 26th September, 2020, in the address made to the United Nations General Assembly, Indian PM Narendra Modi affirmed India&rsquo;s comittment to Transgender rights.
 He stated that &ldquo;rights of Transgenders are also being secured through necessary Legal reforms&rdquo; in India. In doing so, he became one of the few leaders to acknowledge Transgender rights on international forums.
 According to the Human Rights Watch, transgender is the identity of people whose gender assigned at birth does not conform to their lived gender&rdquo;&nbsp;
 Even today transgenders face discrimination across the globe. For instance, US earlier allowed Transgender people in the Army before President Trump reversed the decision in 2017. He claimed that they add &ldquo;tremendous medical costs and disruption&rdquo;
 Russia criminalized educating &ldquo;minors&rdquo; about Transgender in 2013, and banned Transgender people from driving in 2015.
 As of 2019, 16 countries including Japan and Finland require sterilisation for transgender people before granting them official recognition
 Even WHO categorized Transgender health issues under &ldquo;mental and behavioural disorders&rdquo; until 2019.
In the next part we will have a look at hoe transgender people have been embraced historically in India.

KKR 'surprised' over Narine's action being reported

KKR&nbsp;issues statement over Sunil&nbsp;Narine&nbsp;being&nbsp;reported for&nbsp;a suspected illegal bowling action in the IPL

The news of Sunil&nbsp;Narine's&nbsp;action being reported came as a surprise to the&nbsp;Kolkata&nbsp;Knight Riders&nbsp;but the franchise is hopeful of coming to a resolution soon. In a statement,&nbsp;KKR&nbsp;said that the West Indian&nbsp;has played&nbsp;as many as 68 games since 2015, when he was last reported during the IPL season for a suspect action before being subsequently cleared completely by an ICC accredited facility.&nbsp;Furthermore, he was playing his 6th game this season, with no concerns expressed formally or informally by the match officials so far. The statement added that&nbsp;this entire situation of disallowing, then allowing and then disallowing someone was quite bizarre. For a player and the fans, it's like a ping pong back and forth.&nbsp;

NGOs in India (2/2) - Impact in Numbers | Summachar 

With the FCRA amendments bill being passed recently, NGOs in India have come under the spotlight again. Let's understand more about NGOs and their impact in India.
Some 2015 stats on NGOs outline why NGOs are important from a social as well as political lens. As per these stats there were around 3 million NGOs in India. This was double the number of schools and 250 times the number of govt hospitals in the country at that time! India had 1 NGO per 400 citizens as compared to 1 policeman per 709 citizens.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
NGOs or non-governmental organisations work independently without any government intervention. In India, the term NGO is used as an umbrella term for different types of not-for-profit organizations or NPOs.
NPOs are formed as legal entities working for welfare but no working member shares its profit or loss. NGOs generally work towards societal causes, such as human rights, women's welfare, education and so on, whereas NPOs work in specific fields like promoting arts, science, research, etc. Not all NPOs are charitable organizations, and some may also be formed as a part of tax planning.
In the next part we will look at the legal and financial structures of NGOs.

IPL's Top 5 retired super stars 

IPL&nbsp;is that time of the year when fans get an opportunity to get a glimpse of the veteran&nbsp;stars back in action. Here are top 5 of the retired cricketers to watch out for this season.

IPL's top 5 retired super stars 

&nbsp;
Though IPL is seen as a platform for the rising stars in cricket but it also gives fans an opportunity to have a glimpse of their favourite stars who have retired. Here is a list of top 5 retired cricketers to feature in this season.&nbsp;
 Number 5: Dale Steyn (RCB)
They say that the shelf life of a fast bowler isn't beyond 35 years but Dale Steyn&nbsp;is determined to disprove the common notion. Just like his international career, Steyn's&nbsp;IPL&nbsp;career has too been injury-prone and the pacer has played just 9 IPL&nbsp;games since 2015. He was forced to withdraw from the last edition as well due to injury but he made an impact in the 2 games he played and picked 4 crucial wickets.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Number 4: Shane Watson (CSK)
The only veteran of the mighty Aussie team of the 2000s to still feature in the IPL&nbsp;is Shane Watson. With few key members of the Chennai Super Kings having withdrawn from the league, Watto's&nbsp;role becomes even more crucial. In the 2 seasons he has played for CSK, Watson has smashed 398 and 555 runs. It includes 2 centuries in the 2018 edition with one of it coming in the final.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Number 3: AB de Villiers (RCB)
IPL&nbsp;will be a perfect platform to assess the form of someone like&nbsp;AB de Villiers who&nbsp;has&nbsp;expressed his willingness to come out of retirement to be a part of South Africa's World T20 squad. After Virat, RCB's&nbsp;hopes usually depend on ABD&nbsp;and Mr. 360 has very often helped his side over the finish line from an unthinkable position. He is the only batsman to have a strike rate of over 150 among players to have played over 150 IPL&nbsp;games. Apart from that de Villiers&nbsp;has smashed 212 sixes in the cash-rich league, 2nd most in the history of IPL.
Number 2: Chris Gayle (KXIP)
Talking about clearing the rope and no one does it with more ease than the Caribbean&nbsp;powerhouse Chris Gayle. The Jamaican&nbsp;tops the list with 326 sixes in the IPL. If he gets going with KL Rahul&nbsp;for Kings XI Punjab at the top, any ground can become a bowlers' graveyard. Gayle has smashed 490 and 368 runs in the 2 seasons he has played for Punjab and despite being 40, there's hardly a chink in his armour. Gayle also holds the record for most IPL&nbsp;centuries with 6 tons so far.
Number 1 : MS Dhoni (CSK)
One player who usually featured in most top&nbsp;batsmen lists over the years is MS Dhoni. Never the less, Dhoni&nbsp;still has a lot to offer despite retiring from international cricket. With CSK&nbsp;going through a crisis, Captain cool is probably what the doctor ordered for the yellow brigade.&nbsp;Dhoni has not only led CSK&nbsp;to 3 IPL&nbsp;titles but has also been their batting powerhouse. He is the second-highest run-getter for CSK, scoring&nbsp;4432 runs at a healthy average of over 42. Dhoni&nbsp;has smashed&nbsp;over 400 runs&nbsp;at a staggering strike rate in each of the last 2 editions of the IPL, which shows that he is ageing just like a fine wine.&nbsp;

Charlie Hebdo, the French satirical weekly, has republished cartoons of Prophet Mohammad&nbsp;for which it was attacked in 2015 to mark the beginning of the trial of the attackers. In an editorial published along with the republished cartoons, the editor of Charlie Hebdo&nbsp;said they will never lie down or give up.&nbsp;&nbsp;France's most celebrated cartoonists were among the 12 people who died on January 7, 2015 when&nbsp;brothers Said and Cherif Kouachi went on a rampage at the paper's offices in Paris. The two were killed during police action but 14 alleged accomplices are now on trial.&nbsp;The cover of the latest issue shows a dozen cartoons first published by the Danish daily Jyllands-Posten in 2005 and then reprinted by Charlie Hebdo in 2006. The attack on the paper's offices caused n massive outrage and led to the #JeSuisCharlie&nbsp;campaign on social media.&nbsp;
