Akhila alias Hadiya, a Kerala-based girl, who was forcefully confined in her father’s house for several months for embracing Islam and marrying a Muslim man, has now got partial freedom. The Supreme Court on Monday allowed her to resume her homoeopathic studies. However, it appointed college Dean as Hadiya’s guardian whereas she wanted her loving husband, who has been fighting for her, to be her guardian. 

“Nobody forced me to convert. Nobody forced me to marry a Muslim man. It was my decision. I want justice. I want freedom. I want to go with my husband. I want to meet my husband now,” a helpless Hadiya cried out in the Supreme Court requesting the judge not to send her back to her father’s house, where she was tortured.

Her deposition began after the Supreme Court in its October 30 order directed Hadiya's father Ashokan, who has links with saffron elements, to present her in the court to ascertain her views on her marriage to Muslim man, Shafin Jahan.

The Supreme Court today asked Hadiya if she wants to continue her studies on state expenditure. "I want to (continue my studies) but not on state's expense when my husband can take care of me," Hadiya replied.

Chief Justice Dipak Misra, however, told Hadiya to resume her studies and directed her to return to Salem. The court said that it is important to protect the economic interests of Hadiya and asked the state of Tamil Nadu to "provide her protection if any situation arises".

The court also said that the Dean of her college can apprise the court in case of any untoward situation. "I should be considered a human being. I want to be a good citizen," Hadiya told the Supreme Court. The court fixed third week of January as the next date of hearing in the case. 
 
Want to meet husband, pleads Hadiya

The court spoke to Hadiya via a translator for nearly 20 minutes during which it asked her about her dreams and aspirations and what she wanted to do in her life.

“I want to meet my husband and I don't want any local guardian to be appointed,” Hadiya told the court.

She said that she has been in unlawful custody for 11 months and wanted her freedom back. As court recorded her testimony, Hadiya repeatedly said that she wanted to meet her husband. 

The court directed the Salem-based Homeo Medical College to re-admit Hadiya and grant her hostel facility while also appointing the Dean of the college as her local guardian.

The apex court also asked the Kerala police to provide Hadiya with security and ensure she travels to Salem at the earliest.

Kapil Sibal shocked

Kapil Sibal, who is appearing on behalf of Shafin Jahan, told the court that he was saddened by the communal arguments in the case. "Will now all marriages between Hindus and Muslims be scrutinised by courts like this," Sibal asked.

"Why is the Bench not listening to Hadiya," Sibal said. Hadiya, before leaving for Delhi from the Kochi airport on Saturday, told the media that she wants to be with her husband. "I am a Muslim. I was not forced. I want to be with my husband," Hadiya said.

The court is hearing a plea by Shafin Jahan challenging the Kerala High Court order of May nullifying his marriage with Hadiya and seeking recall of its order asking the NIA to investigate the conversion of Hadiya to Islam and her marriage.

Hadiya’s father takes media’s help

Earlier, Hadiya's father K M Ashokan cited several controversial media reports about Kerala’s “conversion factories” in the Supreme Court and said that Sathya Sarini, PFI's sister organisation, is involved in radicalisation and conversion of youths.

Prominent television channels and news papers in India have unanimously declared Hadiya’s conversion and marriage as love-jihad, though she has rubbished the allegation repeatedly.

Hadiya realised that NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI...  (There is no image of God) from the VEDAS. From that Quran she gets the hope of ONE GOD and she believes in the God that protects her from all the deception playing around her.  No one can harm her if ALLAH protects her.  she needs daring to accept God's will rather than following with the false flow of worshiping man made Gods without using God given intellect... When U look and search for the CREATOR, the one who put soul in our body will definetly guide U  to TRUTH of worshiping the one God ALLAH and will follow the messenger of ALLAH. When U believe in your CREATOR, U will see the reality of this World which is filled with LIES, Deception and evils.May Allah protect her and give her Peace, and May Allah make her parent realize the TRUTH of worshiping the one God who has no image.

New Delhi, Mar 6: Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday will move the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Second Amendment) Bill, 2019 for consideration and passing in Lok Sabha.

In December last year, the Union Cabinet had approved a proposal to promulgate an ordinance to amend the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) 2016.

The amendments will remove certain ambiguities in the IBC 2016 and ensure smooth implementation of the code, an official statement said.

The move is aimed at easing the insolvency resolution process and promoting the ease of doing business. Aimed at streamlining of the insolvency resolution process, the amendments seek to protect last-mile funding and boost investment in financially-distressed sectors.

Under the amendments, the liability of a corporate debtor for an offence committed before the corporate insolvency resolution process will cease.

The debtor will not be prosecuted for an offence from the date the resolution plan has been approved by the adjudicating authority if a resolution plan results in change in the management or control of the corporate debtor to a person who was not a promoter or in the management or control of the corporate debtor or a related party of such a person.

The amendments are aimed at providing more protection to bidders participating in the recovery proceedings and in turn boosting investor confidence in the country's financial system.

Bengaluru Jul 29: There will be a centralised system in place in Karnataka to classify asymptomatic, symptomatic and mild symptomatic persons and recommend treatment based on the severity of the cases, said Medical Education Minister Dr K Sudhakar on Tuesday here.

"Various existing apps related to COVID-19 will be brought under one platform to get real-time information which will assist in strategising allocation of hospitals/beds to the needy. This will probably remove the delay in bed allocation and treatment which is being faced now. The patients will get all information in one phone call," Dr Sudhakar said.

Sudhakar spoke with a team of experts from the government and Infosys.

Referring to a company by name Step 1, which is providing such services in Delhi and Madhya Pradesh, the Minister said that a similar system will be implemented in the state as well.

"This company is having a team of doctors and nurses which is guiding the people whether they need hospital treatment or home isolation after they are tested positive for COVID-19. More than 70 per cent of the positive cases are being asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic and are advised to go for home isolation," the minister said.

"The load on the hospitals is reduced and severe cases can be administered proper treatment. Infosys co-ordinates with the government to provide technical support for this system," Dr Sudhakar added.

Earlier during the day, the minister held a video conference with the heads of private medical colleges to review COVID preparedness.
The government has already passed guidelines to allocate 50 per cent of hospital beds for COVID patients.

Bengaluru, Jan 5: B S Yediyurappa-led Karnataka cabinet has finally decided to resume supply of subsidised rice and wheat to students of welfare institutions and hostels including those run by religious mutts under the Dasoha Scheme’s welfare programme. The supply was stopped over two months ago.

“Cabinet has decided to continue supply of subsidised foodgrains (rice and wheat) for the benefit of 37,700 children under the Dasoha scheme in 351 welfare institutions for the next one year at the cost of Rs 18 crore,” said J C Madhuswamy, Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister. Under this scheme, institutions that provide free accommodation and food for students are entitled to avail 10 kg rice and 5 kg wheat per student every month at subsidised rates. But following a central government directive in November, the state government had stopped supply to private institutions since December.

Hours before the cabinet meeting, Khader addressed a press conference and said, “This government is snatching away food from children by stalling the supply of foodgrains. Institutions like Suttur Mutt, Siddaganga Mutt that have worldwide fame for their service are being inconvenienced by this,” Khader said.

Finding itself in a fix, especially in a matter that involves mutts, the cabinet was quick to restore the supply. “Foodgrains were being supplied to 183 government-run institutions and 281 institutions run by private entities. As per a central government directive, supply to private institutions was stopped but the decision was made by the previous government,” Shashikala Jolle, Women and Child Development Minister, said.
