The panelists - Prakash Bhoir, Manisha Dhirede, Arfa Khanam, and Prabhat Patnaik - inspired the crowd through their stories of rebellion against the authorities and survival. Mistakes were handed over to audience members with 'sedition' and 'urban naxal' written on them. Explaining how into Mumbai Rise to Save Democracy came into existence last September, he said, "Bhima Koregaon is an important milestone for opposing Hindutva. The vehicles of those who joined it were burnt, and the police later registered cases against the activists and them. The authorities then found a new conspiracy and based on this, and they arrested nine human rights activists. What was most frightening was the mass media used… it has put the word 'urban naxal' in everyone's heads." Another tribal, Manisha Dhende, who was detained during the Aare protests, said, "I don't understand the police. We all grew up learning that we should save trees and be non-violent, but I don't know which school the police said they beat up students and detained people for no reason."

Uddhav Thackeray Said, We Have Reduced The Burden Of BJP
In response to the allegations against by Shiv Sena and General Secretary Vikas Mahadev, Uddhav Thackeray said that he has stopped carrying the burden of the BJP and has made a lot of compromises to come to the CM's chair. He questioned the BJP's understanding of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar's Hindutva and the need for the CAA to legislate rather than do justice to Hindus in India before hosting refugees from other countries. "We cannot understand Savarkar completely, but do you understand him too? Do you support Savarkar's views on cows? Manohar Parrikar was the proponent of beef import. Union Minister Kiren Rijiju eat beef. You can talk about this. What do I think? " He responded to the BJP's allegations that were levelled against him during a debate on the Governor's address at a joint sitting of the legislature. At one point, the CM said that he had too many papers to read, but he would first answer all the allegations. Two days ago when Thackeray equalled the police crackdown on students at Jamia Millia University in connection with the Jallianwala Bagh massacre, it forced NCP boss Sharad Pawar to say that the Maha Vikas Aghadi government would now be stable and stable. Pawar interpreted Thackeray's statement as a necessary response that the BJP should be kept at bay. Thackeray said, he had promised his father that Shiv Sena would be the CM in Maharashtra, but he never told him that he would always be with the BJP. "If you say that I have made a new low to form the government, then yes, I have done so, but remember that I have removed the burden of the BJP from my shoulders." Clarifying his stand on the CAA, the CM said, "BJP should do justice to Indian Hindus first and then think of Hindus of other countries." He further said that the BJP should also think of Marathi speaking people in Karnataka, who have wanted to be a part of Maharashtra since 1960, the year a new state was created without the inclusion of Belgaum belt.

NCP Chief Sharad Pawar Will Be The Architect Of Agricultural Loan Waiver !
NCP chief Sharad Pawar will be the architect of the farm loan waiver that the Maha Vikas Aghadi government will announce in the coming days. The former Union Agriculture Minister, who presided over a mega debt waiver during the UPA I rule across the country, was placed in a meeting in Nagpur on Thursday with Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray and senior MVA leaders. The BJP-led opposition is angry at the government's demand, which was raised by the CM himself during the election campaign. He wanted at least R25,000 per hectare of farmers to be given a cap on uncultivated land. The previous government, of which Shiv Sena was a constituent, offered relief to the indebted peasants, but Thackeray wanted a total rebate rather than a partial one. Sources said that Pawar has advised the policy makers of Maharashtra to come up with a new plan, which should be completed on time. This MVA government was expected to transcend the line of Congress-led Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh where a debt waiver was announced within ten days of the formation of the government. But the MVA decided not to rush on it and considered the state's fiscal health before making any commitment. Maharashtra may require another R60,000 crore to make farmers debt free. The state has a debt burden of R6.71 lakh crore, including loans taken for big-ticket projects. Considering this, the new government is also reviewing the Fadnavis government exemption, which was in the range of R353 crore. Insiders said the MVA might have a two-legged waiver. A list of eligible farmers is now being made. BJP wants CM to announce interim assistance if there is no complete exemption scheme in the current legislative session.

A Survey Of Foot-Over-Bridges Revealed Lack Of Regular Checks
A survey of foot-over-bridges at 13 stations along 32 kilometres between Thane and CSMT revealed lack of inspection deadlines and regular checks. With the majority of maintenance schedules showing April 2019 as the final inspection date, November 2019 as the next due date, situation points towards a lack of seriousness by the railways and raises passenger safety concerns. Earlier this year, IIT-B and Railways conducted a joint safety audit of all 445 road-over-bridges, FOBs on both the Central Railway and Western Railway lines to improve facilities and focus on commuter safety. Thereafter some bridges were demolished, and accountability boards were put on all FOBs along with the inspection schedule. All this was done after the CSMT bridge collapsed this year to gain public confidence and set accountability. The board mentions important parameters such as the condition of the bridges, the person-in-charge, the last inspection date and the due date for the next inspection. Out of the 19 stations between Thane and CSMT, a media agency visited the 13 busiest. It was found that at least eight FOB due dates at five stations had expired. While some stations have updated boards, some do not have boards. While the board of the CSMT mentions that the last inspection was done this month and the next is scheduled for December 2020 and certified as safe for public use, the inspection dates at the south-end bridge of the mosque station.

Story Of Bar Owners Troubled By Police In Mumbai
City bar owners dared to blow the lid off one of Mumbai's worst-kept secrets. Policemen bullying the bar to close the path before the deadline and made their patrons and managers uncomfortable with their presence inside the complex. The issue seems to be in disbelief that the top brass for local police stations. Taking a nap by the chief of police, it appears that there are galvanized local police, mainly in the western suburbs, to flex their muscles with massive restaurants and bars. More than 50 victim owners have come forward to protest against the highness of the police, who say they are posting constables on their premises, which sometimes force them to close shop by 9 pm. In a city where a majority allow their hair to be posted only at 10 am, the over-the-top measure has left moderation in view of the high losses in business. For a force that is short-staffed, this is an unnecessary wastage of manpower. For over a decade, it has been struggling to fill 3,000-odd vacancies. Nevertheless, it continues to deploy precious personnel for unnecessary jobs unnecessarily. The reason this time is that during the surprise inspection initiated by the Chief of Police, the deadline of 1.30 pm to the local police was not strictly enforced. Does the expiration of a deadline justify precious manpower wastage? When these infantrymen can be deployed for law and order, why should they waste their thumbs inside the bars for hours? Another reason given is the prevention of 'illegal activities,' in which no one is able to tell what these illegal activities can be. On the face of it, it seems that the police have returned to their favorite activity, moral policing. It cannot top the list of law enforcers. By all means, monitor the bars and restaurants if you must, but inconsistently. The strong-arm strategy will only be counterintuitive. It would be prudent for constables to enforce the law where needed, which is certainly not inside bars and restaurants.
