Kedarnath Dham, one of the country’s 12 Jyotirlingas, will open its doors on May 6, 2022. This Dham contains a massive temple of Lord Shiva built by connecting stone boulders on the margins of the Mandakini river.

The doorways of Lord Kedarnath, the Eleventh Jyotirlinga, have been unlocked for worshipers in accordance with all legal and mythical traditions. For the next six months, worshippers will be permitted to see Bhole Baba in this location.

On Saturday morning, a forest fire burst out in Jammu and Kashmir’s Udhampur district. According to the Range Officer, the fire was previously extinguished, but malcontents re-ignited it in the forest.

“In the morning, we received information of a forest fire in the surrounding region. It was put out by 10:30 a.m., but not before some residents set fire to it again. The accused’s name has been forwarded to the Sub-Divisional Magistrate,” Dudu Range Officer Ayush Gupta stated.

Local residents who are assisting officials in extinguishing the fire have stated that “Our community is being threatened by flames. We attempted to contain it, but the wind is causing it to spread.” Villagers are concerned about the safety of their families and their homes.

After a discussion between the temple priest and the mosque’s imam, who resolved to deliver a message of communal unity, the largest temple and a mosque in Uttar Pradesh’s Badagaon town have taken down their speakers. Shanti Mohan Dass, the temple priest, and Hafiz Mohammad Taj Alam, the imam, said they agreed to take down the loudspeakers that had been used in the temple and mosque for years.

In Badagaon town’s Gandhi Chowk neighborhood, the Ram Janki temple, one of Jhansi’s most respected temples, and the Sunni Jama Mosque are near to one other. Whereas the temple used its loudspeakers to broadcast the morning arti, the mosque utilized its loudspeakers five times a day to broadcast the azaan (Muslim call to prayer).

A youth is accused of using an offensive and altered photo as his WhatsApp status, injuring religious emotions. According to claims in the media, he allegedly changed a photo of a saffron flag flying above Mecca’s mosque. The youngster, identified as Abhishek Hiremath, was detained after a complaint was filed at the Old Hubballi police station. He lives in Hubballi’s Anand Nagar neighborhood, which has a higher Muslim population.

The populace was furious and dissatisfied with the police response. Demonstrators gheraoed the police station late Saturday night, pelting stones and causing damage to police cars. To keep the mob under control, police reverted to using lathi charges and rubber bullets. To disperse the gathering, they fired rounds into the air and launched tear gas shells.

The Supreme Court overturned an Allahabad High Court ruling granting Ashish Mishra bail in the case and returned the case to the Allahabad High Court to be heard again. The Supreme Court had previously expressed reservations over the Allahabad High Court’s decision to give bail to Ashish Mishra, stating that superfluous information like the autopsy analysis and severity of the wounds should not have been discussed until the trial had begun.

The special bench, which also included Justices Surya Kant and Hima Kohli, took significant notice of the fact that the state administration did not appeal the decision against the high court’s ruling, as the supreme court-appointed SIT had recommended.

On Friday in Srinagar, a dispute emerged as disturbances arose at the city’s Jamia Masjid, with certain men apparently yelling “Azadi” chants. During the season of Ramzan, it was the first communal prayer performed in the big mosque.

Jamia Masjid has just recently reopened for ceremonies after being closed for over 2 years due to Covid-19.
People familiar with the situation reported that after Friday prayers, a bunch of young males inside the mosque yelled the remarks. The confrontations eventually came to an end, and the crowd departed.

The debate arises at a time when security officers and migrant laborers have been targeted in the Valley.

The Saarthi Foundation, a Maharashtra-based NGO dedicated to the betterment of the poor in the public health and education sector, has created Maharashtra’s premier public toilet specifically for transgender people. The measure is intended to offer a safe area for transgender people and to avoid gender prejudice. The toilet has been opened in the Omble Garden at Aarey in Goregaon.

The ‘Kinnar’ Samaj is frequently overlooked and ridiculed in society, resulting in continuous pain for them. They are continually struggling for their survival and basic rights, such as access to sanitary and hygienic conditions. The metro’s first transgender toilet will undoubtedly bolster the morale of the third gender population, which has often felt unwanted in public restrooms.

The recent events involving SP head Akhilesh Yadav and his uncle Shivpal Yadav have paved the way for the BJP’s ‘charkha bet.’ Following Praspa President Shivpal Yadav’s increasing closeness to the power camp, it is anticipated that the BJP can make a significant strategic gamble against the SP by appointing Shivpal as Deputy Speaker, similar to Nitin Agarwal.

The long-running feud between Akhilesh Yadav and Shivpal Yadav appeared to bring the assembly election to a close. Shivpal, who created his own party, Pragatisheel Samajwadi Party (Lohia), tried to persuade his nephew and SP president to give him several seats, but Akhilesh only gave him one.
