New Delhi, Oct 31: After Supreme Court’s landmark judgement on Sabarimala which allowed women below 55 years to enter the hill shrine, a PIL has been filed before Delhi High Court seeking orders to allow women of all ages to enter all temples, mosques, churches and pray along with men. The plea also calls for opening up of 'women only' Attukal temple and Kamakhya temple for entry of men.

The plea also says women should not be barred from being ordained as priests in temples, churches should be allowed to lead prayers in mosques, ANI reported. The move comes after a Hindu group recently filed a PIL in the Kerala High Court seeking directive to the Centre for issuing an order enabling Muslim woman to enter mosques for offering prayers, PTI reported.  

According to the petitioner in light of the recent Supreme Court order on Sabarimala which allowed entry of women of all age groups into the shrine, the petitioner demanded the entry of Muslim women devotees in mosques for prayers along with men.

According to the PIL filed, Muslim women have been facing discriminating as they are not allowed to enter and pray in mosques in the main prayer hall. The petition was filed by Swamy Dethathreya Sai Swaroop Nath, who is the state president of Akhila Bharatha Hindu Maha Sabha, Kerala unit.

However, a division bench led by Chief Justice Rishikesh Roy and Justice A K Jayasankaran Nambiar rejected the plea categorically and observed that the petitioner was neither an aggrieved party nor his rights were affected in many ways.

On Tuesday, the state BJP observed a state-wide protest against the Kerala police highhandedness on devotees who were "roughed-up" in and around the Sabarimala temple town last week when they prevented the entry of woman devotees in the age group of 10-50 to enter the temple.

GOD Created man to worship him alone but some basta@d like swamy created there own god and spreading lies & corruption, the people who worship the dummy god will be permenently rooted in hell forever. mainly who worship IDOL.  in islam womens are allowed to enter masjid but in sperated room, you can see the house of GOD Kaaba which allows any person to come even women & child or baby. but it not allow idol worshipped, GOD does not restrict any one but only he have some guidline for women aswell as any human being

 

qurans word

the day will come on judgement day the same people like swamy will be questioned by his follower why you told us lie about GOD and made to worship dummmy god, he will answer simple that he did not force anyone i just showed to you & you came back to me. them you realize the truth and accept the punishment.

 

think before while you accepting anything as GOD.

GOD created messenger to pass his message. you dont need manager, mediator or influncer, ask directly with GOD he is all knowing.

New Delhi, Jan 9: Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos will be visiting India next week and is likely to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi and officials, besides industry leaders, according to sources.

The top executive will also attend SMBhav – an event focussing on small and medium businesses in India - that is slated for January 15-16 in the capital city.

When contacted, Amazon declined to comment.

Amazon, which has seen significant growth in its business in India, has also witnessed protest from a section of traders in the country who claim that e-commerce giants including Amazon and Walmart-owned Flipkart offer deep discounts and engage in unfair business practices.

Last year, the government had tightened rules for e-commerce marketplaces with foreign investment. These rules barred such platforms from offering products of sellers in which they hold a stake and banned exclusive marketing arrangements among other clauses. Following this, Amazon restructured its joint ventures to ensure compliance.

Bezos is likely to discuss regulatory issues in his meeting with the government officials.

He is also slated to engage with SMBs during the SMBhav event. The event - which will focus on discussions around how technology adoption can enable SMBs in India - is slated to see participation from industry experts, policymakers, solution providers and Amazon leadership.

Addressing a press conference, Rajesh Bhushan, Secretary, Health Ministry said that 11 per cent COVID-19 deaths took place in the age group of 26 to 44.

The 18 to 25 age group and those below 18 years reported one per cent deaths each.
"Currently, 5,86,298 active COVID-19 cases are in India and over 12 lakh people have recovered.

50 per cent deaths due to COVID19 have taken place among the age group of 60 years or above and 37 per cent deaths took place in the age group between 45 to 60 years," Bhushan said.

"A total of 11 per cent COVID-19 deaths took place in the age group of 26 to 44. Only 1 per cent in 18 to 25 age group and 1 per cent in below the age of 18 years," he added.

Bhushan said that 68 per cent of COVID-19 deaths have been reported among male patients and 32 per cent among female patients which is broadly in line with the global scenario.

The number of recovered COVID-19 patients in India is increasing daily and is now over double the number of active cases.

Bhushan said that the case fatality rate (CFR) is lowest since the first lockdown.

"More than 2 crore COVID-19 tests have been conducted, including more than 6.6 lakh tests in the last 24 hours. Recovered cases are now double of the active cases. 

The case fatality rate (CFR) is lowest since the first lockdown," he said
"This is the first time after the first lockdown that the fatality rate is at the lowest, at 2.10 per cent. The fatality rate has seen a progressive decline and it is continuing, which is a good sign," he added.

According to the World Health Organisation, CFR is a measure of the severity of a disease and is defined as the proportion of reported cases of a specified disease or condition which are fatal within a specified time.
