#justice_shekhar_yadav_respond_allahabad_high_court_his_remarks_muslims


इलाहाबाद हाई कोर्ट के जस्टिस शेखर कुमार यादव लगातार सुर्खियों में बने हुए हैं। पिछले दिनों प्रयागराज में विश्व हिंदू परिषद के कार्यक्रम में उन्होंने हिंदू और मुस्लिम धार्मिक कानूनों या मान्यताओं को लेकर बयान दिया था। इसके बाद वह विवादों के घेरे में आ गएय़ उनको सुप्रीम कोर्ट के कॉलेजियम के सामने पेश भी होना पड़ा था। हालांकि, अपने बयान पर कायम हैं। सुप्रीम कोर्ट कॉलेजियम की ओर से तलब किए जाने के एक महीने बाद, जस्टिस यादव ने मुख्य न्यायाधीश को पत्र लिखकर कहा है कि वह अपनी टिप्पणी पर कायम हैं, और उनके अनुसार यह न्यायिक आचरण के किसी भी सिद्धांत का उल्लंघन नहीं करती है।

सीजेआई ने इलाहाबाद हाईकोर्ट के चीफ जस्टिस अरुण भांसाली से लेटेस्ट अपडेट मांगी थी। इसके बाद जस्टिस भांसाली ने जस्टिस कुमार से कॉलेजियम के बाद उनके जवाब मांगी थी, जिसके बाद उन्होंने लेटर लिख कर जवाब दिया। जस्टिस शेखर कुमार यादव ने इलाहाबाद हाईकोर्ट के चीफ जस्टिस को पत्र लिखकर बताया कि वह अपनी टिप्पणी पर कायम हैं, जो उनके अनुसार न्यायिक आचरण के किसी भी सिद्धांत का उल्लंघन नहीं करती है।

हाई कोर्ट के मुख्य न्यायाधीश जस्टिस अरुण भंसाली ने भी 17 दिसंबर को भारत के मुख्य न्यायाधीश संजीव खन्ना की अगुवाई वाले कॉलेजियम के साथ जस्टिस यादव की बैठक के बाद उनसे जवाब तलब किया था। इस महीने की शुरुआत में, अंग्रेजी अखबार द इंडियन एक्सप्रेस की ओर से बताया गया कि सीजेआई ने मुख्य न्यायाधीश जस्टिस भंसाली को पत्र लिखकर इस मसले पर नई रिपोर्ट मांगी थी।

रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक जवाब मांगने वाले उक्त पत्र में लॉ के एक छात्र और एक आईपीएस अधिकारी की ओर से उनके भाषण के खिलाफ दायर की गई शिकायत का जिक्र किया गया था, जिसे सरकार ने अनिवार्य रूप से रिटायर कर दिया था।

रिपोर्ट के अनुसार के अनुसार, जस्टिस यादव ने अपने जवाब में दावा किया कि उनके भाषण को निहित स्वार्थ वाले लोगों की ओर से तोड़-मरोड़ कर पेश किया जा रहा है, और न्यायपालिका से जुड़े लोग जो सार्वजनिक रूप से खुद का बचाव करने में असमर्थ हैं, उन्हें न्यायिक बिरादरी के सीनियर लोगों द्वारा सुरक्षा दिए जाने की जरुरत है।

क्या बोले थे यादव
जस्टिस यादव ने कहा, आपको यह गलतफहमी है कि अगर कोई कानून (यूसीसी) लाया जाता है, तो यह आपके शरीयत, आपके इस्लाम और आपके कुरान के खिलाफ होगा, लेकिन मैं एक और बात कहना चाहता हूं। चाहे वह आपका पर्सनल लॉ हो, हमारा हिंदू कानून हो, आपका कुरान हो या फिर हमारी गीता हो, जैसा कि मैंने कहा कि हमने अपनी प्रथाओं में बुराइयों (बुराइयों) को संबोधित किया है, कमियां थीं, दुरुस्त कर लिए हैं, छुआछूत, सती, जौहर, कन्या भ्रूण हत्या, हमने उन सभी मुद्दों को संबोधित किया है, फिर आप इस कानून को खत्म क्यों नहीं कर रहे हैं, कि जब आपकी पहली पत्नी मौजूद है, तो आप तीन पत्नियां रख सकते हैं, उसकी सहमति के बिना, यह स्वीकार्य नहीं है।

*" আমি হাতজোড় করে, বাংলার মানুষের প্রতি কৃতজ্ঞতা জানাচ্ছি..." মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় বছর শেষের বার্তায় বাংলার মানুষের প্রতি কৃতজ্ঞতা প্রকাশ করলে
ডেস্ক : ২০২৪ সাল শেষ হতে চলেছে, পশ্চিমবঙ্গের মুখ্যমন্ত্রী মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় মঙ্গলবার সামাজিক মাধ্যমে "সংগ্রাম এবং সাফল্যের" একটি বছর পার করার জন্য মা-মাটি-মানুষের প্রতি কৃতজ্ঞতা প্রকাশ করেন। এই বছর শুরুতেই, মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায়ের তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস লোকসভা নির্বাচনে একটি অভাবনীয় বিজয় অর্জন করে এবং এরপর একাধিক উপনির্বাচনে জয়লাভ করেন।

মুখ্যমন্ত্রী মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় তার এক্স এবং ইউটিউব অ্যাকাউন্টে একটি আন্তরিক ভিডিও শেয়ার করে জনগণের প্রতি কৃতজ্ঞতা প্রকাশ করেন, যাদের সহায়তায় সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস "দমন এবং শোষণের বিরুদ্ধে দৃঢ়ভাবে দাঁড়ানোর" যে সংকল্প তাতে অটল থাকতে পেরেছে।

এ বছরটির উল্লেখযোগ্য মাইলফলকগুলির উপর আলোকপাত করে, মুখ্যমন্ত্রী তাঁর দলের মানুষের সঙ্গে সম্পর্ক এবং চ্যালেঞ্জ মোকাবিলায় তার দলের সক্ষমতার প্রশংসা করেন, আবার প্রমাণিত হয় যে, তৃণমূল কংগ্রেসের পাশে বাংলার মানুষ একজোট হয়ে সামিল হয়েছেন।

ভিডিওটি, যা এক্স এবং ইউটিউব প্ল্যাটফর্মে প্রকাশ করা হয়েছে, তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস যে চ্যালেঞ্জগুলিকে অতিক্রম করে জনগণের জন্য কাজ করেছে, তা তুলে ধরা হয়েছে। কেন্দ্রের তরফে আটকে রাখা ১০০ দিনের কাজের টাকা ফেব্রুয়ারি থেকে প্রদান করা থেকে শুরু করে, লক্ষ্মীর ভাণ্ডার প্রকল্পের মাধ্যমে মহিলাদের জন্য আর্থিক সাহায্য বাড়ানো এবং ডিসেম্বর মাসে কেন্দ্রের পক্ষ থেকে আটকে রাখা আবাস যোজনার সহায়তা পূরণের জন্য রাজ্য কোষাগারের টাকা দিয়ে ১২ লক্ষ উপভোক্তাকে বাংলার বাড়ি প্রকল্পের আওতায় ক্ষতিপূরণ দেওয়া, এই সব বিষয়েই মুখ্যমন্ত্রী তার সংকল্প প্রকাশ করেছেন, যাতে জনগণের পাশে দাঁড়িয়ে সব প্রতিকূলতার বিরুদ্ধে লড়াই করা যায়।

মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় ভিডিওটির সাথে একটি আন্তরিক বার্তা লিখেছেন, ‘‘মা মাটি আর মানুষ নিয়ে বাংলা আছে ভালো, তৃণমূলের হাতেই থাকুক নতুন দিনের আলো। As we bid farewell to 2024, my heart swells with gratitude for the unflinching support of our Ma, Mati, Manush, the very cornerstone of our strength. It is your trust and faith that fuels our resolve to stand tall against the forces of oppression and exploitation. This year has been one of trials and triumphs. From the hurdles we faced together to the milestones we achieved, it is your love and solidarity that stood out. With folded hands, I thank the people of Bengal for making this year unforgettable. As we embark on a new year, I renew my pledge to serve you with utmost dedication, to protect you, and to uphold the ideals of JUSTICE, LIBERTY, EQUALITY, and FRATERNITY that define us as a people. Joy Bangla!"

कौन हैं पाक के नए चीफ जस्टिस याह्या अफरीदी, जानें नियुक्ति पर क्यों हो रहा बवाल?
#whoisjusticeyahyaafridinextcjpwhycontroversy
पाकिस्तान की विशेष संसदीय कमेटी ने मंगलवार को सुप्रीम कोर्ट के नए चीफ जस्टिस को चुन लिया। कमेटी ने लंबी चली बैठक के बाद तीन सबसे वरिष्ठ न्यायाधीशों में अगले चीफ जस्टिस के रूप में याह्या अफरीदी को नामित किया है।अफरीदी का चयन हाल ही में हुए 26 वें संविधान संशोधन के तहत किया गया है, इस संशोधन ने न्यायपालिका में महत्वपूर्ण बदलाव किए गए हैं। जिसमें मुख्य न्यायाधीश के चयन के लिए एक विशेष संसदीय समिति (SPC) की स्थापना शामिल है।

हाल ही में किए गए संविधान के 26वें संशोधन ने न्यायपालिका के संबंध में कई बदलाव लागू किए, जिनमें से एक विशेष संसदीय समिति (एसपीसी) द्वारा तीन शीर्ष न्यायाधीशों में से चीफ जस्टिस की नियुक्ति करना शामिल था, जबकि पिछले नियम के हिसाब से सबसे वरिष्ठ न्यायाधीश को वरिष्ठता सिद्धांत के तहत चीफ जस्टिस नियुक्त किया जाता था।

विशेष संसदीय समिति (SPC) की स्थापना से पहले वरिष्ठता के आधार पर चीफ जस्टिस का चयन होता था। याह्या अफरीदी के साथ न्यायाधीश न्यायमूर्ति मंसूर अली शाह और न्यायमूर्ति मुनीब अख्तर भी इस दौड़ में शामिल थे। पाकिस्तान के चीफ जस्टिस काजी फैज ईसा 25 अक्टूबर को शीर्ष न्यायाधीश से रिटायर होने वाले हैं। न्यायमूर्ति शाह को पहले वरिष्ठता सिद्धांत के तहत अगला CJP बनाया जाना था।

हालांकि, अनुच्छेद-175ए के खंड-3 में किए गए संशोधन के बाद राष्ट्रपति 'शीर्ष अदालत के सबसे वरिष्ठ न्यायाधीश' को चीफ जस्टिस के रूप में नियुक्त नहीं कर सकेंगे। इसके बजाय, अब विशेष संसदीय समिति की सिफारिश के आधार पर सर्वोच्च न्यायालय के तीन सबसे वरिष्ठ न्यायाधीशों में से किसी एक को चीफ जस्टिस के रूप में नियुक्त किया जाएगा।

याह्या अफरीदी कौन हैं
जस्टिस अफरीदी का जन्म 23 जनवरी 1965 को डेरा इस्माइल खान में हुआ था। वह कोहाट सीमांत क्षेत्र में स्थित अफरीदी जनजाति से हैं। वो बांदा गांव के निवासी हैं। उन्होंने अपनी प्रारंभिक शिक्षा लाहौर के एचीसन कॉलेज में प्राप्त की। उन्होंने गवर्नमेंट कॉलेज लाहौर से राजनीति विज्ञान और अर्थशास्त्र में कला स्नातक की उपाधि प्राप्त की और बाद में पंजाब विश्वविद्यालय, लाहौर से अर्थशास्त्र में कला में स्नातकोत्तर की डिग्री प्राप्त की। उल्लेखनीय है कि 59 वर्षीय अफरीदी ने 1990 में एक वकील के रूप में अपना करियर शुरू किया और देश के उत्तर-पश्चिमी खैबर पख्तूनख्वा प्रांत में पेशावर उच्च न्यायालय के मुख्य न्यायाधीश के रूप में कार्य करने के बाद 2018 में उन्हें पाकिस्तान के सर्वोच्च न्यायालय का न्यायाधीश नियुक्त किया गया था।

Demand for Bharat Ratna to Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha by Sunny Sinha, Patron of Samanta Sangram Samiti


Sunny Sinha, the patron of the Samanta Sangram Samiti, recently demanded that Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha, the first president of the Constituent Assembly of India, be honored with the Bharat Ratna. His proposal highlights the significance of Dr. Sinha’s contributions to the creation of the Indian Constitution. Sunny Sinha stated that Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha was not only the first president of the Constituent Assembly but also played an invaluable role in Indian politics, social justice, and constitutional reforms.
Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha: An Introduction

Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha was born on November 10, 1871, in Patna, Bihar. Before becoming the president of the Constituent Assembly, he was a renowned lawyer and academician. Even before India’s independence, he emphasized constitutional reforms and worked to bring together various sections of Indian society. Recognizing his contributions, he was elected as the first president of the Constituent Assembly, where he helped lay the foundation for the country’s future.

Demand for Bharat Ratna

Sunny Sinha believes that Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha’s pivotal role in the formation of the Constituent Assembly and in shaping the direction of the Constitution makes him deserving of the Bharat Ratna. He noted that the Bharat Ratna is the highest civilian honor in India and is awarded to individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to the nation. Dr. Sinha’s life and work reflect his deep commitment to the country, making him a worthy recipient of this prestigious award.

Impact on Society

The initiative by the Samanta Sangram Samiti not only seeks to recognize the contributions of Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha but also ensures that all the great leaders involved in the making of the Constituent Assembly receive due respect. This demand also aims to strengthen the values and ideals for which Dr. Sinha fought throughout his life. Sunny Sinha’s effort can serve as a meaningful step in passing on the importance of the Indian Constitution and its history to future generations.

Conclusion

Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha’s name is etched in golden letters in the history of the Indian Constitution. His leadership and vision provided a strong foundation for Indian democracy. Therefore, the demand to honor him with the Bharat Ratna is not only appropriate but also a fitting way to acknowledge his service to Indian society and democracy.

*Have Not Come Here as CM But As Your Didi: Mamata Banerjee Visits Swasthya Bhavan Agitation Site To Appeal To Doctors In A Surprise Visit*


 SB News Bureau: In an unprecedented move showing what pro-people leaders look like, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee set an example on Saturday and made a surprise visit at the Swasthya Bhavan agitation site to talk to protesting junior doctors and assured them of government action. Issuing an appeal to agitating doctors to withdraw their strike as their 'Didi' and "elder sister", she said she supports their demands for justice. 

The development comes 2 days after doctors had refused to hold dialogue with her at Nabanna, where the CM waited for 2 hours due to an impasse over livestreaming the discussion. While the government offered an option to record the meeting as legal limitations did not allow for livestreaming a discussion on a sub-judice matter, the doctors rejected the offer and continued the deadlock. 

"I am not here as the Chief Minister but as your Didi as your elder sister. I urge you to return to work. I support your movement for justice," she told the agitating doctors on Saturday, reiterating her demands for justice for the RG Kar victim and capital punishment for the perpetrators.

"Despite safety concerns, I have come here because I support your movement. You couldn't sleep amid rain and storm last night. Even I couldn't sleep. I feel your pain. Even I couldn't sleep for 34 days because your safety matters to us." she added.

Pledging her support to the cause, Mamata Banerjee assured protesting doctors that she would look into all their demands. "We have already initiated the renovation work of the state-run hospitals and will revamp the health infrastructure...We will form new Rogi Kalyan Samitis...No culprit is my friend and will not be spared if found guilty," she added.

The Chief Minister also said no action would be taken against the protesting doctors. "It is my earnest request to you. Discuss among yourselves and make a decision. Please return to work. You are like my brother and sisters and I have sympathy for you. I will not take any action against you. This is not UP. They had implemented ESMA and stopped all sorts of strikes and rallies. But be rest assured, I will not do anything of this sort. I am against taking any action against the doctors. I know that you do noble work. The seniors [doctors] need you. Think about my proposal,"If I can come to this protest site to stand by you, I can also ensure justice and listen to your demands."

*বাংলা পথ দেখাল: মহারাষ্ট্রে পশ্চিমবঙ্গের মতো কঠোর ধর্ষণ-বিরোধী বিল দাবি করলেন শরদ পওয়ার*

এসবি নিউজ ব্যুরো:পশ্চিমবঙ্গ বিধানসভায় ঐতিহাসিক অপরাজিতা নারী ও শিশু বিল, যেখানে ধর্ষণের জন্য মৃত্যুদণ্ড-সহ কঠোরতম শাস্তির প্রস্তাব করা হয়েছে, পাস হওয়ার একদিন পরেই এনসিপি (এসপি) প্রধান শরদ পাওয়ার মহারাষ্ট্রেও একইরকম একটি বিল আনার ইচ্ছা প্রকাশ করেছেন। সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস শরদ পাওয়ারের এই সিদ্ধান্তকে স্বাগত জানিয়ে বলেছে যে, ধর্ষণের বিরুদ্ধে আন্দোলনকে আরও শক্তিশালী করতে এই পদক্ষেপ গুরুত্বপূর্ণ।

এই পদক্ষেপটি এই সত্যেরও প্রমাণ যে, সংস্কারের ক্ষেত্রে বাংলা সর্বদা অগ্রণী ভূমিকা পালন করেছে। এটি বাংলা-বিরোধী শক্তিগুলোর জন্যও উপযুক্ত জবাব, যারা দীর্ঘদিন ধরে দিল্লির জমিদারদের নির্দেশে বাংলার ভাবমূর্তি নষ্ট করার সর্বাত্মক চেষ্টা করে আসছে।

অপরাজিতা মহিলা ও শিশু (পশ্চিমবঙ্গ অপরাধ আইন সংশোধনী) বিল, ২০২৪ - যা সর্বসম্মতিক্রমে পাস হয়েছে - তাতে তিনটি গুরুত্বপূর্ণ উপাদান রয়েছে:

 অপরাধীর জন্য কঠোর শাস্তি,
 দ্রুত তদন্ত, এবং
* দ্রুত ন্যায়বিচারের ব্যবস্থা।

বিএনএসের অধীনে যৌন হেনস্তার মামলাগুলি ছাড়াও, বিলটি পকসো আইনের অধীনে দায়ের করা মামলাগুলোকেও লক্ষ্য করেছে।

এছাড়াও, ধর্ষণ-বিরোধী বিলটি রাজ্যের প্রতিটি জেলায় ‘অপরাজিতা টাস্ক ফোর্স’ গঠনেরও ব্যবস্থা করেছে।

সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস নিজেদের এক্স হ্যান্ডেলে লিখেছে , "What Bengal thinks today, India thinks tomorrow! Under the leadership of Smt. GoWB is taking decisive action to ensure that women can live without fear. The Aparajita Anti-Rape Bill has prompted a leader of stature to call for a similar legislation in Maharashtra!" 

"গতকাল, রাজ্যের বিধানসভায় যে ঐতিহাসিক বিলটি পাশ করা হয়েছে তাতে ধর্ষণের দোষীদের কঠোরতম শাস্তির কথা বলা হয়েছে। এটিকে উদাহরণ হিসাবে গ্রহণ করে, অন্যান্য রাজ্যগুলিও এই ঐতিহাসিক পদক্ষেপটি বাস্তবায়নের পরিকল্পনা করছে। উদাহরণস্বরূপ, এনসিপি (এসপি) প্রধান শরদ পওয়ার মহারাষ্ট্রেও একইরকম একটি বিল আনার ইচ্ছা প্রকাশ করেছেন। বাংলার এই উল্লেখযোগ্য পদক্ষেপটি মহিলাদের সুরক্ষা নিশ্চিত করার জন্য একটি নতুন পথ দেখিয়েছে, " রাজ্যের অর্থমন্ত্রী চন্দ্রিমা ভট্টাচার্য বলেছেন৷

এনসিপি (এসপি) প্রধানের অপরাজিতা বিল অনুকরণের সিদ্ধান্তের বিষয়ে সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেসের জাতীয় মুখপাত্র এবং রাজ্যের মহিলা ও শিশু উন্নয়ন মন্ত্রী ড. শশী পাঁজা নিজের এক্স হ্যান্ডেলে লিখেছেন, 
"BENGAL SHOWS THE WAY. Now, Shri Sharad Pawar has pitched for West Bengal-like anti-rape bill in Maharashtra."

"মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় অপরাজিতা বিলের মাধ্যমে ইতিহাস তৈরি করেছেন। এটি শুধুমাত্র মৃত্যুদণ্ড নিশ্চিত করে না, বরং ধর্ষণের দোষীদের জন্য কঠোর শাস্তিরও আহ্বান জানায়। এটি মহিলাদের নিরাপত্তা ও সুরক্ষা জোরদার করবে। এনসিপি (এসপি) প্রধান শরদ পওয়ার এই বিলটিকে শুধু স্বাগত জানাননি, বরং এই বিলটিকে তিনি একটি 'মডেল' হিসাবেও অভিহিত করে বলেছেন যে এটা সারা দেশে বাস্তবায়ন করা উচিত। উনি বলেছেন যে মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় এই বিলের দ্বারা একটি নজির স্থাপন করেছেন। বাংলা আজ যা ভাবে, ভারতবর্ষ আগামীকাল তাই ভাবে এবং ভাবতে হবে" তৃণমূল মুখপাত্র কুণাল ঘোষ বলেছেন।

বুধবার রাজ্য বিধানসভায় ভাষণ দেওয়ার সময় পশ্চিমবঙ্গের মুখ্যমন্ত্রী মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় বলেন, "ধর্ষণ এখন জাতীয় লজ্জার বিষয় হয়ে দাঁড়িয়েছে। আসুন আমরা সবাই একত্রে এই সমস্যার মোকাবিলা করি। এই সমস্যার সমাধানে সমাজ সংস্কার ও মানুষের জাগরণের প্রয়োজন। অতীতেও পশ্চিমবঙ্গ এমন সংস্কার নেতৃত্ব দিয়েছে। রোগ থাকলে, তার চিকিৎসা হওয়া উচিত।"

মুখ্যমন্ত্রী আরও বলেন, "দেশে ধর্ষণের জন্য বর্তমান শাস্তি যথেষ্ট নয় – কেন ধর্ষকরা এমন কাজ করার সাহস পাচ্ছে? আমাদের এ বিষয়ে ভাবতে হবে। ২০২২ সালের ক্রাইম ইন ইন্ডিয়া-তে প্রকাশিত ডেটা অনুযায়ী, দেশে ধর্ষণ সংক্রান্ত মামলায় ৭৬% ক্ষেত্রে তদন্ত শেষ করে পুলিশ চার্জশিট জমা দিতে পেরেছে, কিন্তু মাত্র ২.৫৬% ক্ষেত্রে অভিযুক্তকে দোষী প্রমাণ করা হয়েছে। এই সমস্যাটি মোকাবিলা করতে হবে।"

এর আগে, সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেসের সাধারণ সম্পাদক এবং ডায়মন্ড হারবারের সাংসদ অভিষেক বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় ধর্ষণের বিরুদ্ধে একটি সর্বাঙ্গীণ আইন প্রণয়নের দাবি জানিয়েছেন, যা সময়সীমার মধ্যে অপরাধীদের জন্য কঠোর শাস্তি নিশ্চিত করবে।

"Given the harrowing statistic of a RAPE EVERY 15 MINUTES, the demand for a COMPREHENSIVE TIME-BOUND ANTI-RAPE LAW is more pressing than ever. BENGAL is leading the charge with its ANTI-RAPE BILL. The Union must now take decisive action - whether by ordinance or BNSS amendment in the upcoming parliament session to ensure that justice is both swift and severe, with TRIALS AND CONVICTIONS concluded in 50 DAYS," উনি নিজের এক্স হ্যান্ডেলে লিখেছেন।

Defrauded Investors Urge Authorities to Act Against NSEL Brokers


Thousands of Investors Still Waiting for Justice Years After NSEL CrisisNew Delhi,
Thousands of investors who lost their hard-earned money due to the fallout of the National Spot Exchange Limited (NSEL) crisis are still waiting for justice and the return of their funds. Their prolonged wait is eroding trust in the system. The crisis, which began over a decade ago, involved brokers misleading investors with false promises of safe and assured returns, leaving them in financial turmoil. Despite clear court directives and the stringent provisions of the MPID Act, many brokers have yet to face the necessary legal action, and justice continues to be delayed. 


The National Spot Exchange Limited (NSEL) case stems from a payment default that occurred in 2013. The crisis was triggered when the Forward Markets Commission (FMC), the commodities market regulator, directed NSEL to halt the launch of new contracts, leading to the abrupt closure of the Exchange in July 2013. This event marked the beginning of a major financial crisis, leaving thousands of investors facing significant losses and sparking ongoing legal battles to recover the funds. 

The NSEL provided a platform for buyers and sellers to trade in commodities, involving clients, traders, and investors registered through their respective brokers. These brokers, in turn, were registered on the NSEL exchange. However, investigations have revealed that brokers exploited this system, engaging in fraudulent activities that defrauded thousands of investors.
The investigation uncovered several key findings that highlight the fraudulent activities of the brokers involved in the NSEL crisis. Brokers took Power of Attorney from their clients and executed trades on the NSEL on their behalf. They misrepresented NSEL contracts as fixed return products, luring traders into investments with promises of risk-free returns. Furthermore, brokers funded their clients beyond their repayment capacity and conducted trades without proper authority, sometimes using clients' names and PAN details for benami transactions. To conceal these illicit activities, brokers also engaged in rampant client code modifications.
Courts have ruled that brokers are to be considered as financial institutions under the Maharashtra Protection of Interest of Depositors (MPID) Act. The Court also upheld the attachment of assets, including bank accounts and properties, under this Act. This decision reinforces the legal framework aimed at protecting investors' interests and recovering their lost funds, providing renewed hope for justice to the thousands of affected investors. However, authorities have yet to take the necessary actions to implement this ruling effectively.
In March 2015, the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Mumbai Police arrested directors of three major brokerage firms. By December 2018, these brokers and their directors were charge-sheeted under various charges, including being declared Financial Establishments under the MPID Act. In December 2022, the EOW filed a final charge sheet against 16 additional brokers and their directors.
Despite these actions, significant delays in attaching the brokers' assets have frustrated investors. The MPID Act allows for the attachment of properties of entities declared as Financial Establishments to protect depositors' interests. However, the assets of brokers who accepted deposits from investors and failed to repay them remain largely unattached.
In May 2023, the MPID Court ordered the attachment of properties belonging to one prominent broker. However, authorities have only attached a fraction of the required assets. The High Court upheld the MPID Court's directive, emphasizing that inaction should not hinder the attachment process.
Investors, frustrated by the lack of progress, have taken legal action to expedite the attachment of assets. An application filed by an investor led to a court hearing where the Competent Authority confirmed that brokers had induced investors with false promises of guaranteed returns. The court ordered the attachment of properties, but significant progress is still lacking.

Public Outcry and Social Media Campaign:
The ongoing delays and perceived favoritism towards certain brokers have sparked a public outcry. A social media campaign under the hashtag #ActAgainstNSELBrokers has gained momentum, demanding swift justice and accountability. Prominent figures and social media influencers have joined the call for justice, amplifying the voices of affected investors.
Thousands of investors are still waiting for justice years after the NSEL crisis. They were promised safe returns by their brokers but are left empty-handed.  
The NSEL crisis has left a lasting impact on investor confidence and financial stability. As the call for justice grows louder, it is imperative for the concerned authorities to act promptly. Investors are demanding that the government attach the assets of all brokers involved, ensure accountability, and restore public faith in the financial system.

मुसलमानों पर दिए अपने बयान पर कायम हैं जस्टिस यादव, बोले-मैंने किसी न्यायिक सीमा का उल्लंघन नहीं किया
#justice_shekhar_yadav_respond_allahabad_high_court_his_remarks_muslims


इलाहाबाद हाई कोर्ट के जस्टिस शेखर कुमार यादव लगातार सुर्खियों में बने हुए हैं। पिछले दिनों प्रयागराज में विश्व हिंदू परिषद के कार्यक्रम में उन्होंने हिंदू और मुस्लिम धार्मिक कानूनों या मान्यताओं को लेकर बयान दिया था। इसके बाद वह विवादों के घेरे में आ गएय़ उनको सुप्रीम कोर्ट के कॉलेजियम के सामने पेश भी होना पड़ा था। हालांकि, अपने बयान पर कायम हैं। सुप्रीम कोर्ट कॉलेजियम की ओर से तलब किए जाने के एक महीने बाद, जस्टिस यादव ने मुख्य न्यायाधीश को पत्र लिखकर कहा है कि वह अपनी टिप्पणी पर कायम हैं, और उनके अनुसार यह न्यायिक आचरण के किसी भी सिद्धांत का उल्लंघन नहीं करती है।

सीजेआई ने इलाहाबाद हाईकोर्ट के चीफ जस्टिस अरुण भांसाली से लेटेस्ट अपडेट मांगी थी। इसके बाद जस्टिस भांसाली ने जस्टिस कुमार से कॉलेजियम के बाद उनके जवाब मांगी थी, जिसके बाद उन्होंने लेटर लिख कर जवाब दिया। जस्टिस शेखर कुमार यादव ने इलाहाबाद हाईकोर्ट के चीफ जस्टिस को पत्र लिखकर बताया कि वह अपनी टिप्पणी पर कायम हैं, जो उनके अनुसार न्यायिक आचरण के किसी भी सिद्धांत का उल्लंघन नहीं करती है।

हाई कोर्ट के मुख्य न्यायाधीश जस्टिस अरुण भंसाली ने भी 17 दिसंबर को भारत के मुख्य न्यायाधीश संजीव खन्ना की अगुवाई वाले कॉलेजियम के साथ जस्टिस यादव की बैठक के बाद उनसे जवाब तलब किया था। इस महीने की शुरुआत में, अंग्रेजी अखबार द इंडियन एक्सप्रेस की ओर से बताया गया कि सीजेआई ने मुख्य न्यायाधीश जस्टिस भंसाली को पत्र लिखकर इस मसले पर नई रिपोर्ट मांगी थी।

रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक जवाब मांगने वाले उक्त पत्र में लॉ के एक छात्र और एक आईपीएस अधिकारी की ओर से उनके भाषण के खिलाफ दायर की गई शिकायत का जिक्र किया गया था, जिसे सरकार ने अनिवार्य रूप से रिटायर कर दिया था।

रिपोर्ट के अनुसार के अनुसार, जस्टिस यादव ने अपने जवाब में दावा किया कि उनके भाषण को निहित स्वार्थ वाले लोगों की ओर से तोड़-मरोड़ कर पेश किया जा रहा है, और न्यायपालिका से जुड़े लोग जो सार्वजनिक रूप से खुद का बचाव करने में असमर्थ हैं, उन्हें न्यायिक बिरादरी के सीनियर लोगों द्वारा सुरक्षा दिए जाने की जरुरत है।

क्या बोले थे यादव
जस्टिस यादव ने कहा, आपको यह गलतफहमी है कि अगर कोई कानून (यूसीसी) लाया जाता है, तो यह आपके शरीयत, आपके इस्लाम और आपके कुरान के खिलाफ होगा, लेकिन मैं एक और बात कहना चाहता हूं। चाहे वह आपका पर्सनल लॉ हो, हमारा हिंदू कानून हो, आपका कुरान हो या फिर हमारी गीता हो, जैसा कि मैंने कहा कि हमने अपनी प्रथाओं में बुराइयों (बुराइयों) को संबोधित किया है, कमियां थीं, दुरुस्त कर लिए हैं, छुआछूत, सती, जौहर, कन्या भ्रूण हत्या, हमने उन सभी मुद्दों को संबोधित किया है, फिर आप इस कानून को खत्म क्यों नहीं कर रहे हैं, कि जब आपकी पहली पत्नी मौजूद है, तो आप तीन पत्नियां रख सकते हैं, उसकी सहमति के बिना, यह स्वीकार्य नहीं है।

*" আমি হাতজোড় করে, বাংলার মানুষের প্রতি কৃতজ্ঞতা জানাচ্ছি..." মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় বছর শেষের বার্তায় বাংলার মানুষের প্রতি কৃতজ্ঞতা প্রকাশ করলে
ডেস্ক : ২০২৪ সাল শেষ হতে চলেছে, পশ্চিমবঙ্গের মুখ্যমন্ত্রী মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় মঙ্গলবার সামাজিক মাধ্যমে "সংগ্রাম এবং সাফল্যের" একটি বছর পার করার জন্য মা-মাটি-মানুষের প্রতি কৃতজ্ঞতা প্রকাশ করেন। এই বছর শুরুতেই, মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায়ের তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস লোকসভা নির্বাচনে একটি অভাবনীয় বিজয় অর্জন করে এবং এরপর একাধিক উপনির্বাচনে জয়লাভ করেন।

মুখ্যমন্ত্রী মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় তার এক্স এবং ইউটিউব অ্যাকাউন্টে একটি আন্তরিক ভিডিও শেয়ার করে জনগণের প্রতি কৃতজ্ঞতা প্রকাশ করেন, যাদের সহায়তায় সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস "দমন এবং শোষণের বিরুদ্ধে দৃঢ়ভাবে দাঁড়ানোর" যে সংকল্প তাতে অটল থাকতে পেরেছে।

এ বছরটির উল্লেখযোগ্য মাইলফলকগুলির উপর আলোকপাত করে, মুখ্যমন্ত্রী তাঁর দলের মানুষের সঙ্গে সম্পর্ক এবং চ্যালেঞ্জ মোকাবিলায় তার দলের সক্ষমতার প্রশংসা করেন, আবার প্রমাণিত হয় যে, তৃণমূল কংগ্রেসের পাশে বাংলার মানুষ একজোট হয়ে সামিল হয়েছেন।

ভিডিওটি, যা এক্স এবং ইউটিউব প্ল্যাটফর্মে প্রকাশ করা হয়েছে, তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস যে চ্যালেঞ্জগুলিকে অতিক্রম করে জনগণের জন্য কাজ করেছে, তা তুলে ধরা হয়েছে। কেন্দ্রের তরফে আটকে রাখা ১০০ দিনের কাজের টাকা ফেব্রুয়ারি থেকে প্রদান করা থেকে শুরু করে, লক্ষ্মীর ভাণ্ডার প্রকল্পের মাধ্যমে মহিলাদের জন্য আর্থিক সাহায্য বাড়ানো এবং ডিসেম্বর মাসে কেন্দ্রের পক্ষ থেকে আটকে রাখা আবাস যোজনার সহায়তা পূরণের জন্য রাজ্য কোষাগারের টাকা দিয়ে ১২ লক্ষ উপভোক্তাকে বাংলার বাড়ি প্রকল্পের আওতায় ক্ষতিপূরণ দেওয়া, এই সব বিষয়েই মুখ্যমন্ত্রী তার সংকল্প প্রকাশ করেছেন, যাতে জনগণের পাশে দাঁড়িয়ে সব প্রতিকূলতার বিরুদ্ধে লড়াই করা যায়।

মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় ভিডিওটির সাথে একটি আন্তরিক বার্তা লিখেছেন, ‘‘মা মাটি আর মানুষ নিয়ে বাংলা আছে ভালো, তৃণমূলের হাতেই থাকুক নতুন দিনের আলো। As we bid farewell to 2024, my heart swells with gratitude for the unflinching support of our Ma, Mati, Manush, the very cornerstone of our strength. It is your trust and faith that fuels our resolve to stand tall against the forces of oppression and exploitation. This year has been one of trials and triumphs. From the hurdles we faced together to the milestones we achieved, it is your love and solidarity that stood out. With folded hands, I thank the people of Bengal for making this year unforgettable. As we embark on a new year, I renew my pledge to serve you with utmost dedication, to protect you, and to uphold the ideals of JUSTICE, LIBERTY, EQUALITY, and FRATERNITY that define us as a people. Joy Bangla!"

భారత 51వ ప్రధాన న్యాయమూర్తిగా జస్టిస్ సంజీవ్ ఖన్నా (Justice Sanjiv Khanna) సోమవారం ప్రమాణం చేశారు. రాష్ట్రపతి భవన్‌లో జరిగిన కార్యక్రమంలో ఆయనతో రాష్ట్రపతి ద్రౌపది ముర్ము ప్రమాణస్వీకారం చేయించారు. ఈ కార్యక్రమానికి ఉప-రాష్ట్రపతి జగదీప్ ధన్ఖడ్, ప్రధాని నరేంద్ర మోదీ, కేంద్ర న్యాయశాఖ మంత్రి అర్జున్ రామ్ మేఘ్వాల్ సహా ఇతర ప్రముఖులు హాజరయ్యారు. సీజేఐగా జస్టిస్ డీవై చంద్రచూడ్ పదవీకాలం ఆదివారంతో ముగిసింది. ఆయన స్థానంలో జస్టిస్ సంజీవ్ ఖన్నా బాధ్యతలు చేపట్టారు. జస్టిస్ ఖన్నా వచ్చే ఏడాది మే 13 వరకూ ఈ పదవిలో కొనసాగనున్నారు.

#whoisjusticeyahyaafridinextcjpwhycontroversy
पाकिस्तान की विशेष संसदीय कमेटी ने मंगलवार को सुप्रीम कोर्ट के नए चीफ जस्टिस को चुन लिया। कमेटी ने लंबी चली बैठक के बाद तीन सबसे वरिष्ठ न्यायाधीशों में अगले चीफ जस्टिस के रूप में याह्या अफरीदी को नामित किया है।अफरीदी का चयन हाल ही में हुए 26 वें संविधान संशोधन के तहत किया गया है, इस संशोधन ने न्यायपालिका में महत्वपूर्ण बदलाव किए गए हैं। जिसमें मुख्य न्यायाधीश के चयन के लिए एक विशेष संसदीय समिति (SPC) की स्थापना शामिल है।

हाल ही में किए गए संविधान के 26वें संशोधन ने न्यायपालिका के संबंध में कई बदलाव लागू किए, जिनमें से एक विशेष संसदीय समिति (एसपीसी) द्वारा तीन शीर्ष न्यायाधीशों में से चीफ जस्टिस की नियुक्ति करना शामिल था, जबकि पिछले नियम के हिसाब से सबसे वरिष्ठ न्यायाधीश को वरिष्ठता सिद्धांत के तहत चीफ जस्टिस नियुक्त किया जाता था।

विशेष संसदीय समिति (SPC) की स्थापना से पहले वरिष्ठता के आधार पर चीफ जस्टिस का चयन होता था। याह्या अफरीदी के साथ न्यायाधीश न्यायमूर्ति मंसूर अली शाह और न्यायमूर्ति मुनीब अख्तर भी इस दौड़ में शामिल थे। पाकिस्तान के चीफ जस्टिस काजी फैज ईसा 25 अक्टूबर को शीर्ष न्यायाधीश से रिटायर होने वाले हैं। न्यायमूर्ति शाह को पहले वरिष्ठता सिद्धांत के तहत अगला CJP बनाया जाना था।

हालांकि, अनुच्छेद-175ए के खंड-3 में किए गए संशोधन के बाद राष्ट्रपति 'शीर्ष अदालत के सबसे वरिष्ठ न्यायाधीश' को चीफ जस्टिस के रूप में नियुक्त नहीं कर सकेंगे। इसके बजाय, अब विशेष संसदीय समिति की सिफारिश के आधार पर सर्वोच्च न्यायालय के तीन सबसे वरिष्ठ न्यायाधीशों में से किसी एक को चीफ जस्टिस के रूप में नियुक्त किया जाएगा।

याह्या अफरीदी कौन हैं
जस्टिस अफरीदी का जन्म 23 जनवरी 1965 को डेरा इस्माइल खान में हुआ था। वह कोहाट सीमांत क्षेत्र में स्थित अफरीदी जनजाति से हैं। वो बांदा गांव के निवासी हैं। उन्होंने अपनी प्रारंभिक शिक्षा लाहौर के एचीसन कॉलेज में प्राप्त की। उन्होंने गवर्नमेंट कॉलेज लाहौर से राजनीति विज्ञान और अर्थशास्त्र में कला स्नातक की उपाधि प्राप्त की और बाद में पंजाब विश्वविद्यालय, लाहौर से अर्थशास्त्र में कला में स्नातकोत्तर की डिग्री प्राप्त की। उल्लेखनीय है कि 59 वर्षीय अफरीदी ने 1990 में एक वकील के रूप में अपना करियर शुरू किया और देश के उत्तर-पश्चिमी खैबर पख्तूनख्वा प्रांत में पेशावर उच्च न्यायालय के मुख्य न्यायाधीश के रूप में कार्य करने के बाद 2018 में उन्हें पाकिस्तान के सर्वोच्च न्यायालय का न्यायाधीश नियुक्त किया गया था।

Demand for Bharat Ratna to Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha by Sunny Sinha, Patron of Samanta Sangram Samiti

His proposal highlights the significance of Dr. Sinha’s contributions to the creation of the Indian Constitution. Sunny Sinha stated that Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha was not only the first president of the Constituent Assembly but also played an invaluable role in Indian politics, social justice, and constitutional reforms.

Demand for Bharat Ratna

Sunny Sinha believes that Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha’s pivotal role in the formation of the Constituent Assembly and in shaping the direction of the Constitution makes him deserving of the Bharat Ratna. He noted that the Bharat Ratna is the highest civilian honor in India and is awarded to individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to the nation. Dr. Sinha’s life and work reflect his deep commitment to the country, making him a worthy recipient of this prestigious award.

Impact on Society

The initiative by the Samanta Sangram Samiti not only seeks to recognize the contributions of Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha but also ensures that all the great leaders involved in the making of the Constituent Assembly receive due respect. This demand also aims to strengthen the values and ideals for which Dr. Sinha fought throughout his life. Sunny Sinha’s effort can serve as a meaningful step in passing on the importance of the Indian Constitution and its history to future generations.

Conclusion

Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha’s name is etched in golden letters in the history of the Indian Constitution. His leadership and vision provided a strong foundation for Indian democracy. Therefore, the demand to honor him with the Bharat Ratna is not only appropriate but also a fitting way to acknowledge his service to Indian society and democracy.

*Have Not Come Here as CM But As Your Didi: Mamata Banerjee Visits Swasthya Bhavan Agitation Site To Appeal To Doctors In A Surprise Visit*


 SB News Bureau: In an unprecedented move showing what pro-people leaders look like, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee set an example on Saturday and made a surprise visit at the Swasthya Bhavan agitation site to talk to protesting junior doctors and assured them of government action. Issuing an appeal to agitating doctors to withdraw their strike as their 'Didi' and "elder sister", she said she supports their demands for justice. 

The development comes 2 days after doctors had refused to hold dialogue with her at Nabanna, where the CM waited for 2 hours due to an impasse over livestreaming the discussion. While the government offered an option to record the meeting as legal limitations did not allow for livestreaming a discussion on a sub-judice matter, the doctors rejected the offer and continued the deadlock. 

"I am not here as the Chief Minister but as your Didi as your elder sister. I urge you to return to work. I support your movement for justice," she told the agitating doctors on Saturday, reiterating her demands for justice for the RG Kar victim and capital punishment for the perpetrators.

"Despite safety concerns, I have come here because I support your movement. You couldn't sleep amid rain and storm last night. Even I couldn't sleep. I feel your pain. Even I couldn't sleep for 34 days because your safety matters to us." she added.

Pledging her support to the cause, Mamata Banerjee assured protesting doctors that she would look into all their demands. "We have already initiated the renovation work of the state-run hospitals and will revamp the health infrastructure...We will form new Rogi Kalyan Samitis...No culprit is my friend and will not be spared if found guilty," she added.

The Chief Minister also said no action would be taken against the protesting doctors. "It is my earnest request to you. Discuss among yourselves and make a decision. Please return to work. You are like my brother and sisters and I have sympathy for you. I will not take any action against you. This is not UP. They had implemented ESMA and stopped all sorts of strikes and rallies. But be rest assured, I will not do anything of this sort. I am against taking any action against the doctors. I know that you do noble work. The seniors [doctors] need you. Think about my proposal,"If I can come to this protest site to stand by you, I can also ensure justice and listen to your demands."

*বাংলা পথ দেখাল: মহারাষ্ট্রে পশ্চিমবঙ্গের মতো কঠোর ধর্ষণ-বিরোধী বিল দাবি করলেন শরদ পওয়ার*

এসবি নিউজ ব্যুরো:পশ্চিমবঙ্গ বিধানসভায় ঐতিহাসিক অপরাজিতা নারী ও শিশু বিল, যেখানে ধর্ষণের জন্য মৃত্যুদণ্ড-সহ কঠোরতম শাস্তির প্রস্তাব করা হয়েছে, পাস হওয়ার একদিন পরেই এনসিপি (এসপি) প্রধান শরদ পাওয়ার মহারাষ্ট্রেও একইরকম একটি বিল আনার ইচ্ছা প্রকাশ করেছেন। সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস শরদ পাওয়ারের এই সিদ্ধান্তকে স্বাগত জানিয়ে বলেছে যে, ধর্ষণের বিরুদ্ধে আন্দোলনকে আরও শক্তিশালী করতে এই পদক্ষেপ গুরুত্বপূর্ণ।

এই পদক্ষেপটি এই সত্যেরও প্রমাণ যে, সংস্কারের ক্ষেত্রে বাংলা সর্বদা অগ্রণী ভূমিকা পালন করেছে। এটি বাংলা-বিরোধী শক্তিগুলোর জন্যও উপযুক্ত জবাব, যারা দীর্ঘদিন ধরে দিল্লির জমিদারদের নির্দেশে বাংলার ভাবমূর্তি নষ্ট করার সর্বাত্মক চেষ্টা করে আসছে।

অপরাজিতা মহিলা ও শিশু (পশ্চিমবঙ্গ অপরাধ আইন সংশোধনী) বিল, ২০২৪ - যা সর্বসম্মতিক্রমে পাস হয়েছে - তাতে তিনটি গুরুত্বপূর্ণ উপাদান রয়েছে:

 অপরাধীর জন্য কঠোর শাস্তি,
 দ্রুত তদন্ত, এবং
* দ্রুত ন্যায়বিচারের ব্যবস্থা।

বিএনএসের অধীনে যৌন হেনস্তার মামলাগুলি ছাড়াও, বিলটি পকসো আইনের অধীনে দায়ের করা মামলাগুলোকেও লক্ষ্য করেছে।

এছাড়াও, ধর্ষণ-বিরোধী বিলটি রাজ্যের প্রতিটি জেলায় ‘অপরাজিতা টাস্ক ফোর্স’ গঠনেরও ব্যবস্থা করেছে।

সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেস নিজেদের এক্স হ্যান্ডেলে লিখেছে , "What Bengal thinks today, India thinks tomorrow! Under the leadership of Smt. GoWB is taking decisive action to ensure that women can live without fear. The Aparajita Anti-Rape Bill has prompted a leader of stature to call for a similar legislation in Maharashtra!" 

"গতকাল, রাজ্যের বিধানসভায় যে ঐতিহাসিক বিলটি পাশ করা হয়েছে তাতে ধর্ষণের দোষীদের কঠোরতম শাস্তির কথা বলা হয়েছে। এটিকে উদাহরণ হিসাবে গ্রহণ করে, অন্যান্য রাজ্যগুলিও এই ঐতিহাসিক পদক্ষেপটি বাস্তবায়নের পরিকল্পনা করছে। উদাহরণস্বরূপ, এনসিপি (এসপি) প্রধান শরদ পওয়ার মহারাষ্ট্রেও একইরকম একটি বিল আনার ইচ্ছা প্রকাশ করেছেন। বাংলার এই উল্লেখযোগ্য পদক্ষেপটি মহিলাদের সুরক্ষা নিশ্চিত করার জন্য একটি নতুন পথ দেখিয়েছে, " রাজ্যের অর্থমন্ত্রী চন্দ্রিমা ভট্টাচার্য বলেছেন৷

এনসিপি (এসপি) প্রধানের অপরাজিতা বিল অনুকরণের সিদ্ধান্তের বিষয়ে সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেসের জাতীয় মুখপাত্র এবং রাজ্যের মহিলা ও শিশু উন্নয়ন মন্ত্রী ড. শশী পাঁজা নিজের এক্স হ্যান্ডেলে লিখেছেন, 
"BENGAL SHOWS THE WAY. Now, Shri Sharad Pawar has pitched for West Bengal-like anti-rape bill in Maharashtra."

"মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় অপরাজিতা বিলের মাধ্যমে ইতিহাস তৈরি করেছেন। এটি শুধুমাত্র মৃত্যুদণ্ড নিশ্চিত করে না, বরং ধর্ষণের দোষীদের জন্য কঠোর শাস্তিরও আহ্বান জানায়। এটি মহিলাদের নিরাপত্তা ও সুরক্ষা জোরদার করবে। এনসিপি (এসপি) প্রধান শরদ পওয়ার এই বিলটিকে শুধু স্বাগত জানাননি, বরং এই বিলটিকে তিনি একটি 'মডেল' হিসাবেও অভিহিত করে বলেছেন যে এটা সারা দেশে বাস্তবায়ন করা উচিত। উনি বলেছেন যে মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় এই বিলের দ্বারা একটি নজির স্থাপন করেছেন। বাংলা আজ যা ভাবে, ভারতবর্ষ আগামীকাল তাই ভাবে এবং ভাবতে হবে" তৃণমূল মুখপাত্র কুণাল ঘোষ বলেছেন।

বুধবার রাজ্য বিধানসভায় ভাষণ দেওয়ার সময় পশ্চিমবঙ্গের মুখ্যমন্ত্রী মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় বলেন, "ধর্ষণ এখন জাতীয় লজ্জার বিষয় হয়ে দাঁড়িয়েছে। আসুন আমরা সবাই একত্রে এই সমস্যার মোকাবিলা করি। এই সমস্যার সমাধানে সমাজ সংস্কার ও মানুষের জাগরণের প্রয়োজন। অতীতেও পশ্চিমবঙ্গ এমন সংস্কার নেতৃত্ব দিয়েছে। রোগ থাকলে, তার চিকিৎসা হওয়া উচিত।"

মুখ্যমন্ত্রী আরও বলেন, "দেশে ধর্ষণের জন্য বর্তমান শাস্তি যথেষ্ট নয় – কেন ধর্ষকরা এমন কাজ করার সাহস পাচ্ছে? আমাদের এ বিষয়ে ভাবতে হবে। ২০২২ সালের ক্রাইম ইন ইন্ডিয়া-তে প্রকাশিত ডেটা অনুযায়ী, দেশে ধর্ষণ সংক্রান্ত মামলায় ৭৬% ক্ষেত্রে তদন্ত শেষ করে পুলিশ চার্জশিট জমা দিতে পেরেছে, কিন্তু মাত্র ২.৫৬% ক্ষেত্রে অভিযুক্তকে দোষী প্রমাণ করা হয়েছে। এই সমস্যাটি মোকাবিলা করতে হবে।"

এর আগে, সর্বভারতীয় তৃণমূল কংগ্রেসের সাধারণ সম্পাদক এবং ডায়মন্ড হারবারের সাংসদ অভিষেক বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় ধর্ষণের বিরুদ্ধে একটি সর্বাঙ্গীণ আইন প্রণয়নের দাবি জানিয়েছেন, যা সময়সীমার মধ্যে অপরাধীদের জন্য কঠোর শাস্তি নিশ্চিত করবে।

"Given the harrowing statistic of a RAPE EVERY 15 MINUTES, the demand for a COMPREHENSIVE TIME-BOUND ANTI-RAPE LAW is more pressing than ever. BENGAL is leading the charge with its ANTI-RAPE BILL. The Union must now take decisive action - whether by ordinance or BNSS amendment in the upcoming parliament session to ensure that justice is both swift and severe, with TRIALS AND CONVICTIONS concluded in 50 DAYS," উনি নিজের এক্স হ্যান্ডেলে লিখেছেন।

Defrauded Investors Urge Authorities to Act Against NSEL Brokers


Thousands of Investors Still Waiting for Justice Years After NSEL CrisisNew Delhi,
Thousands of investors who lost their hard-earned money due to the fallout of the National Spot Exchange Limited (NSEL) crisis are still waiting for justice and the return of their funds. Their prolonged wait is eroding trust in the system. The crisis, which began over a decade ago, involved brokers misleading investors with false promises of safe and assured returns, leaving them in financial turmoil. Despite clear court directives and the stringent provisions of the MPID Act, many brokers have yet to face the necessary legal action, and justice continues to be delayed. 


The National Spot Exchange Limited (NSEL) case stems from a payment default that occurred in 2013. The crisis was triggered when the Forward Markets Commission (FMC), the commodities market regulator, directed NSEL to halt the launch of new contracts, leading to the abrupt closure of the Exchange in July 2013. This event marked the beginning of a major financial crisis, leaving thousands of investors facing significant losses and sparking ongoing legal battles to recover the funds. 

The NSEL provided a platform for buyers and sellers to trade in commodities, involving clients, traders, and investors registered through their respective brokers. These brokers, in turn, were registered on the NSEL exchange. However, investigations have revealed that brokers exploited this system, engaging in fraudulent activities that defrauded thousands of investors.
The investigation uncovered several key findings that highlight the fraudulent activities of the brokers involved in the NSEL crisis. Brokers took Power of Attorney from their clients and executed trades on the NSEL on their behalf. They misrepresented NSEL contracts as fixed return products, luring traders into investments with promises of risk-free returns. Furthermore, brokers funded their clients beyond their repayment capacity and conducted trades without proper authority, sometimes using clients' names and PAN details for benami transactions. To conceal these illicit activities, brokers also engaged in rampant client code modifications.
Courts have ruled that brokers are to be considered as financial institutions under the Maharashtra Protection of Interest of Depositors (MPID) Act. The Court also upheld the attachment of assets, including bank accounts and properties, under this Act. This decision reinforces the legal framework aimed at protecting investors' interests and recovering their lost funds, providing renewed hope for justice to the thousands of affected investors. However, authorities have yet to take the necessary actions to implement this ruling effectively.
In March 2015, the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Mumbai Police arrested directors of three major brokerage firms. By December 2018, these brokers and their directors were charge-sheeted under various charges, including being declared Financial Establishments under the MPID Act. In December 2022, the EOW filed a final charge sheet against 16 additional brokers and their directors.
Despite these actions, significant delays in attaching the brokers' assets have frustrated investors. The MPID Act allows for the attachment of properties of entities declared as Financial Establishments to protect depositors' interests. However, the assets of brokers who accepted deposits from investors and failed to repay them remain largely unattached.
In May 2023, the MPID Court ordered the attachment of properties belonging to one prominent broker. However, authorities have only attached a fraction of the required assets. The High Court upheld the MPID Court's directive, emphasizing that inaction should not hinder the attachment process.
Investors, frustrated by the lack of progress, have taken legal action to expedite the attachment of assets. An application filed by an investor led to a court hearing where the Competent Authority confirmed that brokers had induced investors with false promises of guaranteed returns. The court ordered the attachment of properties, but significant progress is still lacking.

Public Outcry and Social Media Campaign:
The ongoing delays and perceived favoritism towards certain brokers have sparked a public outcry. A social media campaign under the hashtag #ActAgainstNSELBrokers has gained momentum, demanding swift justice and accountability. Prominent figures and social media influencers have joined the call for justice, amplifying the voices of affected investors.
Thousands of investors are still waiting for justice years after the NSEL crisis. They were promised safe returns by their brokers but are left empty-handed.  
The NSEL crisis has left a lasting impact on investor confidence and financial stability. As the call for justice grows louder, it is imperative for the concerned authorities to act promptly. Investors are demanding that the government attach the assets of all brokers involved, ensure accountability, and restore public faith in the financial system.
