Lawyers demand the resignation of 50 judges including the Chief Justice

The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR), recently, issued a circular addressed a letter to the Principal Secretaries of School Education Departments across all States and Union Territories in response to reports alleging that children faced harassment and discrimination by school teachers and staff during festival celebrations.

It was observed that certain schools prohibited children from wearing rakhi, tilak, or mehandi during festivals like Raksha Bandhan, subjecting them to both physical and mental harassment. The Commission highlighted that corporal punishment in schools is expressly prohibited under Section 17 of the Right to Education Act, 2009.

In light of the approaching festivals, the Commission requested that appropriate directions be issued to ensure that schools refrain from practices that could lead to corporal punishment or discrimination. The Commission further requested a compliance report, including a copy of the relevant orders, to be submitted by August 17, 2024.

Recently, the Delhi High Court also reiterated Section 17 of the RTE Act noting that “The corporal punishment to a child in any form is deprecable, even though the motive may be to make a child realise that his/her act is unacceptable, wrong or disappointing.

Haryana - Congress leader Bhupinder Hooda on Vinesh Phogat -

“To motivate her … There are Rajya Sabha polls soon ... We don't have a majority, else I would have nominated her. She has made us all proud.”

Vinesh Phogat's uncle Mahavir Phogat termed the suggestion to nominate her to Rajya Sabha a “political stunt”.

"Today Bhupinder Hooda said that he would have sent Vinesh to the Rajya Sabha if he could. Why did he not send Geeta Phogat when his government was there?"

"Geeta Phogat set many records. When the Bhupinder Singh Hooda government was in power, he did not even make Geeta a deputy superintendent of police. How can Congress leader Bhupinder Hooda now claim this?"
