Bhopal, Apr 21: Facing flak for her remarks against the then Maharashtra ATS chief Hemant Karkare, Malegaon blast accused and BJP candidate Pragya Singh Thakur demanded an apology on Saturday from those who “tortured” her for “nine years.”

Pragya had apologised on Friday after her statement that Karkare died in the 26/11 terror attack because she had “cursed” him for “torturing” her, evoked widespread condemnation.

However, when reporters reached her residence on Saturday and asked her about the controversial statement, She lost her cool. “Will you get an apology from those who tortured me for nine years?” she said. “I have myself apologised yesterday... I give you the authority to get an apology from those who tortured me.”

Out on bail, Pragya, 48, is facing trial under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act in the 2008 blast case. Six people died in the blast at Malegaon in Maharashtra, on September 29 that year.

The BJP on Wednesday announced Ms. Thakur’s candidature from the Bhopal Lok Sabha seat, where she would be facing Congress leader Digvijay Singh.

Mangaluru, Apr 23: The scarcity of water in Kukkavu area of Belthangady town in Dakshina Kannada district has forced school-going children to dig a well with their hands.
The children studying in primary schools were seen lifting the heavy buckets of water from the well.

The residents were facing the water shortage from the past couple of days, amid the coronavirus lockdown.
A group of five adolescents managed to dug the well as deep as 12 feet within just a span of four days.

" We are facing water problem now. With the support of my five more friends, we dug this well. At the beginning we just found soil, then in the deeper layers, we also found stones. We got access to the water at 10 feet down," said Dhanush, a class 9th student, while speaking to news agency.

The shortage of water during the summer months is a perennial problem in across several states in India, and the growing population has only added to the woes.

In extreme conditions, poor have to draw water from small water holes.
