Where was your respect when you broke away, Sena asks Modi

October 7, 2014

Mumbai, Oct 7: The Shiv Sena on Monday asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi where his respect for Balasaheb Thackeray was when the BJP broke its alliance with the Sena over seat-sharing for the Maharashtra Assembly elections.

Sena asks ModiDuring a rally in Maharashtra on Sunday, Mr. Modi said that he would not utter a single word against the Shiv Sena “due to respect for [its founder] Balasaheb Thackeray,” who passed away in 2012. “This is the first Assembly election after the demise of Balasaheb Thackeray, and I will not say anything against the Shiv Sena this time,” he had said.

The Sena mouthpiece Saamna, in its editorial, said: “It is good that he respects the Shiv Sena supremo. Even we respect Mr. Modi. But where did this respect go when it broke the 25-year-old alliance? A more fitting tribute to Balasaheb Thackeray would have been the maintenance of the saffron alliance.”

The editorial claimed that the BJP was trying to loot Maharashtra. “What was the purpose of Gujarat Chief Minister Anandiben Patel’s visit to Mumbai recently? She told industrialists in Maharashtra to move base to Gujarat. This is trying to plunder Maharashtra,” it said. Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray too had raised the same issue in his rally on Sunday.

The editorial also slammed the BJP for invoking Chhatrapati Shivaji, a State icon. Calling it “hypocrisy,” Saamna said those who did not celebrate Shiv Jayanti in their lifetime, now claimed the blessings of Shivaji Maharaj.

“The BJP might be armed with the power of money and intellect, and the art of backstabbing people, but Shivaji maharaj’s blessings are not so cheap. From where will you bring the valour?” the editorial asked.

New Delhi, Jul 29: Coronavirus infections in India continue to mount as the country's total case tally crossed the 15-lakh mark.

India added 48,513 fresh cases in 24 hours, taking the total tally to over 15.3 lakh, according to the Health Ministry’s 8 a.m. update on July 29.

Key Figures

Total number of confirmed coronavirus cases: 15,31,669
Active cases: 5,09,447
Cured/discharged/migrated: 9,88,029
Deaths: 34,193
Number of fresh cases in 24 hours: 48,513
One-day recoveries: 35,175
One-day deaths: 768
India’s coronavirus epidemic is growing at the fastest pace in the world, increasing 20% over the last week, according to Bloomberg’s Coronavirus Tracker. Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka are among the states where the maximum number of daily cares are being reported.

Fresh cases continued to come in at a heightened pace, hovering just below 50,000 for the last six days.

Moderna Inc.’s vaccine candidate against Covid-19 protected against the virus in a trial that inoculated 16 monkeys, an encouraging step on the path to a defense for humans against the pandemic. Pfizer Inc., however, is preparing for the novel coronavirus to endure, leading to long-term demand for a seasonal shot to protect against Covid-19.

“There is a likely scenario that either the vaccine’s immunity will not be lasting forever,” said Chief Executive Officer Albert Bourla in an interview Tuesday, “or that the virus will mutate, or that the virus will find ways to come back again and again.”

Even as the transmission rate of Covid-19 remains high in India, the pace of recovery has risen too. On Wednesday, India reported its third day of over 35,000 recoveries.

Global Update

Flare-ups in virus cases from Hong Kong to Europe are proving difficult for policy makers to wrangle. The U.S. neared 150,000 deaths from Covid-19, even as daily infections slowed in some hard-hit states. China reported 101 new cases, up from 68 a day earlier, with 98 of the total from local infections, mostly in Xinjiang.

Philippine health authorities warned that hospitals and infirmaries risk getting overwhelmed.

Globally, confirmed Covid-19 cases have topped 16.6 million with over 658,000 dead.

In a startling revelation, cybersecurity researchers have claimed that a hacker has posted personal details of nearly 2.9 crore Indian job seekers at one of the hacking forums on the Dark Web for free.

As part of the regular sweep over the Deep Web and Dark Web, researchers from cybersecurity firm Cyble came across an interesting item, where a threat actor posted 2.3GB (zipped) file on one of the hacking forums.

"The leak actually has a lot of personal details of millions of Indians Job seekers from different states," Cyble said in its blog on Friday.

This breach includes sensitive information such as email, phone, home address, qualification and work experience etc from job seekers spanning across states, from New Delhi to Mumbai and Bengaluru. 

Cybercriminals are always on the lookout for such personal information to conduct various nefarious activities such as identity thefts, scams, and corporate espionage.

"It appears to have originated from a resume aggregator service given the sheer volume and detailed information," it added.

Cyble indexed this information at ‘AmIbreached.com; – Cyble's data breach monitoring and notification platform.

Cyble researchers have identified a sensitive data breach on the dark web where an actor has leaked personal details of nearly 29 million Indian job seekers from various states. 

"Cyble's team is still investigating this further and will be updating their article as they bring more facts to the surface,” it said in a statement.

Cyble said it has acquired the leaked data. 

The same cyber security firm earlier exposed that Bengaluru-based edtech firm Unacademy was hacked.

According to Cyble researchers, nearly 22 million Unacademy user accounts were affected and the data was dumped and sold on Dark Web.

'We would like to assure our users that no sensitive information such as financial data or location has been breached," said Hemesh Singh, Co- Founder and CTO, Unacademy, in a statement.

In April, hackers sold personal data of a whopping 267 million Facebook users for just Rs 41,500 (approximately 500 Euros) that includes email addresses, names, Facebook IDs, dates of birth and phone numbers.

No passwords of the 267 million Facebook users were exposed by the hacker, according to Cyble.
