Mumbai, Jun 29: In a shocking incident, a 25-year-old woman allegedly killed her six-year-old son as she could not bear his expenses due to rising prices in Mumbai.52965827

The woman, identified as Savitra Durnale, after strangulating her son Devraj, took him to Shatabdi Hospital pretending he was unwell.

However, she was caught when doctors examining the boy found he was already dead and stated his death to be unnatural. During further examination they found ligature marks on parts of his neck and intimated the RCF police.

“After going through the doctor's report we detained the child's mother, who initially gave a false story that her son was unwell for two days. But on sustained interrogation, she confessed that she strangulated him as she was unable to make ends meet," said Umap Shahaji, deputy commissioner of police (zone 6). She has been booked for murder and remanded to police custody.

Savitra, a native of Gulbarga, told police that after the death of her husband four years ago she didn't have a place to stay.

"Hearing her plight, a bar girl employed Savitra as a domestic help and let her stay with her in Chembur. Savitra also worked in two other places and earned Rs 4,000 a month. But, recently Devraj fell ill and she said she was fed up with the expenses on his medicines and couldn't ask for more money from her employer," said Shahaji.

She told police that on Monday while her employer was away, she waited till Devraj fell asleep and strangulated him with her dupatta.

Modi is unfit for PM. If he spends 5 percent of his travelling expenses on poor people. He can save millions of people.

Ache din has become the bad words for Indian. It has become the abuse word because of feku/Jumla prime minister.

Mar 5: The government on Thursday asserted that there is no shortage of raw ingredients or medicines in the country as it has taken various initiatives to tackle the challenge posed by the coronavirus outbreak.

All initiatives are also being taken to ensure that there is no impact of the disease in India, Minister of Chemicals and Fertilizers D V Sadananda Gowda said.

"There is no shortage of any APIs in the country. We have sufficient APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients) and medicines in the country," he said.

Gowda was addressing the 5th international exhibition and conference on the pharmaceutical and medical industry organised by the Department of Pharmaceuticals, Gujarat government and industry chamber Ficci here.

For another three months there is no shortage for undertaking production in the pharma sector, he added.

"Our government has taken all initiatives to ensure that as far as our country is concerned the coronavirus should be stopped, and there is no hazard as far as this issue is concerned," Gowda reiterated.

Coronavirus is a challenge and "we should make all efforts that need to be taken..., " he added.

On Tuesday, India, the world's largest maker of generic drugs, restricted the export of common medicines such as paracetamol and 25 other pharmaceutical ingredients and drugs made from them, as it looks to prevent shortages amid concerns of the coronavirus outbreak turning into a pandemic.

Besides over-the-counter painkiller and fever reducer paracetamol, drugs restricted for exports included common antibiotics metronidazole, and those used to treat bacterial and other infections as well as Vitamin B1 and B12 ingredients.

A notification by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) had said the export of 26 active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and formulations would require licence.

Bengaluru, Feb 4: Taking the state government to task, the Karnataka High Court on Monday opined there was a need to rehabilitate or compensate migrant workers whose homes in Tubarahalli and Kundalahalli were demolished by a BBMP engineer last month.

On January 19, the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) assistant executive engineer at Marathahalli had taken up a demolition drive stating that the migrant workers residing in the area were “illegal Bangladeshis”.

A division bench led by Chief Justice Abhay S Oka was hearing a petition by the People’s Union for Civil Liberties which contended that the evacuation of the workers was illegal. Stressing the need for relief, the court directed the state government to come clean on its stance and adjourned the hearing to February 10.

Advocate General Prabhuling K Navadgi submitted that the Union government had issued a circular last year to ascertain the presence of illegal Bangaladesh migrants. “On the basis of this circular, the BBMP officials had written a letter to Marathahalli police sub-inspector on January 18. Based on this letter, the residents in huts were evicted in a civilised manner,” he stated.

The bench, however, differed with the submission. “Who identified them as Bangladeshis before the eviction? Which is the competent authority to do so? Which police officer took up the inquiry?” the bench questioned.

The court also asked whether the government would take up similar eviction drives against illegal buildings of the rich. It also expressed displeasure over the action taken against the BBMP engineer.

“Instead of sending him home, you say you have transferred him. We can’t be mute spectators,” the bench said.

The court did not mince words as it castigated the authorities for failing to act judiciously. “The police and the BBMP are blaming each other. Your action appears to be dangerous. Going by the state of things, it seems that everything is not in order,” it said.
