The ‘Biggest’ Stories in World and Indian Headlines – October 3rd, 2024

1. Businessman Arrested In Bengaluru For Firing Gunshots During Birthday Party

Bengaluru police have arrested a local businessman for firing gunshots in the air during a birthday celebration. Central Crime Branch has arrested Syed Altaf Ahmed, a realtor from Bommanahalli, for this reckless act that took place on September 22 at a friend’s party. An incident has come to the fore after a video of Ahmed letting loose with his licensed pistol went viral on social media. Right after the video, law enforcement registered a suo-moto case against him.

The Bengaluru police have seized the weapons and ammunition, and are advising cancellation of Ahmed’s gun licence. Authorities say they are sounding increasingly alarmed at the misuse of firearms, particularly when licenced guns have been used. Many residents expressed their concern, stating: “Even if he had his gun licensed legally, using it here in such a public gathering is very dangerous and irresponsible.”

It brings to the fore larger issues that have to do with responsible ownership of firearms in public space, and also steps that have to be taken to ensure that this does not happen again in the future.

2. Claims of Israeli Troop Losses in Lebanon Under Scrutiny

Reports suggested that Israel was understating its loss of troops in the warfare in Lebanon. Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) incurred severe casualties in the ground operations in Lebanon up to several soldiers killed and sustaining serious injuries at least, a report by Press TV said. This contrasts with the reports by Israeli Army Radio, which admitted serious injuries but fewer losses.

The situation in Lebanon was volatile, such that there have been attacks initiated reportedly by Hezbollah that seemingly called for the immediate intervention of medical rescue teams. However, with conflicting reports from other media agencies, the true extent of the damage remains foggy.

Israel’s assault on Lebanon continues within the broader context of its military campaign, but increasing casualties may pose new challenges that the Israeli government will have to deal with in view of both the military and political impacts of this war.

3. JD(S) Leader HD Kumaraswamy Was Accused of Extortion and Threats

A case has been filed against former Karnataka Chief Minister and JD(S) leader HD Kumaraswamy for the alleged extortion and death threats given by Kumaraswamy and MLC Ramesh Gowda. The complaint, filed by JD(S) social media vice president Vijay Tata, has agitated the state’s political circles. According to Vijay Tata, Kumaraswamy and Ramesh Gowda demanded ₹50 crore as election expense for the Channapatna by-elections soon to be conducted.

In the complaint filed at Amruthahalli Police Station, Tata has apparently alleged that during a discussion over electoral funding, Kumaraswamy and Gowda had made threatening remarks. Distressed by the threat, Tata apparently had immediately reported the case to the authorities, drawing attention to the seriousness of the demands made. The case once again ignited a political row in the state as most are questioning the ethics and practice of such high-profile politicians during election seasons.

For the first time, this may not be; however, this case can prove to be very damaging legally and politically in the run-up to future elections.

4. Record-Breaking Real Estate Deal in Mumbai Suburb

A luxury apartment in Borivali suburb of Mumbai has fetched the highest price per square foot ever. A 4 BHK house in Wadhwa Group’s Aquaria Grande was sold at the whopping price of ₹14 crore, setting a new record for the area at ₹56,000 per square foot. The deal has been finalized by businessman Hemant Patil from the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). It has now set a new benchmark for the property market in the Borivali area.”.

Earlier the north-city Mumbai’s northern suburbs had touched ₹48,800 per square feet with apartments fetched at Oberoi Sky City. However according to experts, the latest deal signals that the northern suburbs continue to gain in demand for luxury high-end residence and is mainly targeted as a relatively affordable area compared to the central parts of the city like Andheri and Dadar.

The stamp duty costs, for instance, were quite high at ₹84 lakh, pointing out the premium nature of this deal in real estate. Local brokers feel this sale might set the trend in property pricing across Mumbai’s outskirts.

5. Sobhita Dhulipala on Why She Doesn’t Believe in ‘Dealbreakers’ in Relationships

Actor Sobhita Dhulipala recently revealed what she thinks about relationships, saying she does not believe in dealbreakers or such rigid conditions in relationship matters. The actor engaged to Naga Chaitanya, in a candid interview, said she has a rather unconventional approach to commitment and love.

Speaking to India Today, Sobhita said that for her, love is unconditional and shouldn’t depend on what her partner does. “I don’t think love should be dependent on someone’s behaviour,” she commented. “For me, trust is knowing that my feelings won’t change based on what someone does or doesn’t do.”

The progressive views on relationships by the actor have greatly resonated with many, leading to a fair share of dialogue on what exactly unconditional love would mean in the contemporary world. With more public figures like Dhulipala opening up about their personal philosophies of love and trust, the discussion surrounding contemporary relationships is definitely changing.

6. Kolkata man arrested for threatening doctor at RG Kar Hospital

Tension mounted at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on allegations that police arrested a man for allegedly threatening a doctor to treat his patient well. According to police sources, the accused became violent after doctors differed with the treatment provided to his relative in the trauma unit of the hospital. Verbal abuses and threats by the man left no option for the police personnel stationed on duty to take him into custody without a second thought.

The incidence happened at a time the hospital was already conducting riots and has raised questions concerning the incidences that health providers face.

The patient was moved, but the man was apprehended after the nursing staff had filed a case in the police after threatening them.

The case above calls for greater safety in a healthcare facility, especially those providing crucial services amidst stressful moments.

7. Shot Unani Doctor Murdered in South-East Delhi’s Jaitpur Extension

A shocking incident has come to the fore wherein a Unani doctor has been shot dead at a nursing home in south-east Delhi’s Jaitpur Extension. According to police, two youths reportedly minors have looted the nursing home on the pretext of an injured toe for which they wanted medical treatment. Later, shooting the doctor into his death, the duo managed to flee.

The police believe that it was a pre-planned killing and that, before that, there had been a recce of the hospital. Investigations are going on. The CCTV footages are being analyzed to spot and catch the culprits.

These doctors were attacked bringing the local community to outrage about their safety in the capital city.

8. Indians in Israel Express Fear Amid Missile Attacks by Iran

As tensions between Israel and Iran hit new heights, many Indian nationals currently staying in that country expressed dreadful experiences following a spate of missile attacks. The ballistic missiles launched by Iran have reportedly hit multiple parts of the country, sending waves of fear and uncertainty within the Indian community.

Several Indians who reside in the country have circulated footage of missile attacks in which the missiles get intercepted by Israeli defense mechanisms. Its embassy has already issued warnings to their nationals asking them to be alert and implementing security measures ordered by the local authorities.

“It’s the most worst conflict which people have ever faced in this country and changing as Israel retaliates over the attacks with increased military action,” he added.

9. RBI Would Likely to Maintain the Key Rates Unchanged in October Policy Meet

The RBI is likely to maintain its policy rate in the October monetary policy meeting, a recent report stated from Bank of Baroda. Having seen inflation ease below 4% in recent months, the central bank has, however, been said to be playing cautious – awaiting further clarity on long-term inflation trends – before making any changes.

This report, after stating the stabilization of food inflation, still awaits pre-mature policy actions to be delivered by the RBI. The added wait-and-watch approach has been due to global market volatility. Therefore, the Monetary Policy Committee will likely wait until at least December to effect rate cuts when a clearer sense of inflation, economic growth, and other parameters would have emerged.

This decision appears to be in line with the thinking of the RBI of balancing inflationary control in tandem with the necessity to support economic recovery post the pandemic.
