GANDHI NAGAR
Basant Rath talking with media.
Probably for the first time senior police officers indulged in a brawl publicly. The sour and bitter exchange of tweets finally reached to the Gandhi Nagar police station in Jammu where 2000 batch IPS officer, who is commonly known for his ‘Singham style’ of working, Basant Rath filed an application against his own boss, the incumbent DGP Dilbagh Singh. In the application, he has asked the police to take cognizance of the alleged threat given to him by the top cop. It all started with Rath, who in of his tweets hinted that Dilbagh Singh apparently owns a big estate in Jammu. Many think that the twitter handle carrying the name of Singh was a fake one and the DGP formally reacted in a Whatsapp group.
TURKEY

DELHI
DSP Davender Singh
Arrested with militants, the DSP Davinder Singh has finally granted bail by a Delhi court as the police “failed” to file a charge sheet within 90 days. Singh was arrested in January when he was on his way to Jammu along with a lawyer and two militants of Hizb ul Mujahideen. After the arrest, he was kept at Hira Nagar Jail and he was recently shifted to Delhi for another case. Singh is a mysterious character who was earlier named by Afzal Guru as the person who sent him to Delhi along with some militants.
While Singh was out on bail, another DSP moved to court for his bail.

The court has now written to the CBI seeking their reply in the plea.

According to the video shot by various TV channels, she has said that she was inspired by her father to clean the lake. “All recognition I am getting is due to my baba.”

He was kept in a quarantine centre located at Changran after his arrival from Mumbai where he was treating his liver ailment.
