Chandigarh: Former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Saturday said that the recent incidents of crime had exposed the condition of law and order in the state as the govt was “sleeping, intoxicated by power”, while criminals were fearlessly committing crimes. He recounted incidents of a man being shot dead in broad daylight in Safidon, miscreants firing on police, loot at a jeweller’s shop in Fatehabad and a liquor shop at gunpoint in Julana, in the last few days. Hooda said the first responsibility of every govt was to protect its citizens. “But ever since the BJP has come to power, it has completely turned its back on its responsibility. This is the reason why the crime graph is continuously increasing in Haryana,” he said. The data released by the govt revealed that between January and August, 4 rapes, 3 murders, 42 vehicle thefts and 25 house thefts took place every day in the state. This govt could not stop crime, even in the election year,” he said. tnn We also published the following articles recently Accused committed crime for refusing to settle rape case: Cops Abdul Sanoof, a 28-year-old man, confessed to police that he killed a woman in a Kozhikode lodge due to her refusal to settle a previous rape case.

Rep. Ritchie Torres says he's "open to" running for New York governor after criticizing HochulTHIAROYE-SUR-MER, Senegal — Biram Senghor regularly goes to pay his respects at a military cemetery in Thiaroye, a fishing village near Senegal’s capital Dakar, bowing in front of a different grave each time. The 86-year-old has no way of knowing which grave belongs to his father, M’Bap Senghor, one of likely hundreds of West African riflemen who fought for France during World War II but were killed on Dec. 1, 1944 by the French army after demanding unpaid wages. In this cemetery where they are supposedly buried, all the graves are anonymous and the exact location of the remains is unknown, as is the number of victims. The true scale and circumstances of the killings remain unclear as Senegal commemorates the 80th anniversary of the massacre on Sunday, threatening to reignite smoldering tensions between France and the former colony. “I have been fighting to get answers for over 80 years,” said Biram Senghor. “(French President Emmanuel) Macron cannot do what the other French presidents before him did; France has to repent.” The West Africans were members of the unit called “Tirailleurs Sénégalais,” a corps of colonial infantry in the French Army that fought in both World Wars. According to historians, there were disputes over unpaid wages in the days before the massacre and on Dec. 1, French troops turned on the unarmed African soldiers and shot them dead. Get the latest breaking news as it happens. By clicking Sign up, you agree to our privacy policy . For decades, French authorities tried to minimize what had happened in Thiaroye. Reports by the French military shortly after the massacre determined that 35 West African soldiers were killed in response to a “mutiny.” Other reports by the French army mention 70 deaths. But today, many French and Senegalese historians agree the true death toll is likely in the hundreds, with some speaking of almost 400 soldiers killed, based on estimates of the number of riflemen present at the camp on the day of the massacre.

Credit: AP/Sylvain Cherkaoui On Thursday, Macron officially recognized the events of Thiaroye as a massacre for the first time in a letter to Senegal’s President Diomaye Faye, which was seen by The Associated Press. “France must recognize that on that day, the confrontation between soldiers and riflemen who demanded their full legitimate wages be paid, triggered a chain of events that resulted in a massacre,” read Macron’s letter. But many historians dispute the idea of a confrontation between the French soldiers and the riflemen. “What happened on December 1st was the execution of unarmed soldiers,” said Martin Mourre, a French historian and author of Thiaroye 1944, History and Memory of a Colonial Massacre. A student points at a poster marking the 80th anniversary of the Thiaroye massacre in Thiaroye, Senegal, Thursday, Nov. 28, 2024. Credit: AP/Sylvain Cherkaoui He points to the fact that no weapons were mentioned during the trial of the African riflemen accused of mutiny and the absence of any injuries among the French soldiers as evidence that no confrontation took place. In his letter to the Senegalese president, Macron did not mention the number of soldiers killed. The controversies and unknowns about the massacre are in part due to a lack of transparency by French authorities regarding the military reports and testimonies. In 2014, French President Francois Hollande handed over the European nation’s archives on Thiaroye to Macky Sall, then-president of Senegal. But historians say that key documents, including ones indicating the site of the mass graves and the number of West African soldiers present at the camp on the day of the massacre, are still missing. It is unclear if France holds such archives or if they even exist. Macron’s office and the French foreign ministry did not respond to requests for comment. Additionally, very little was done by the Senegalese authorities under former president Sall to allow historians to delve into the historical documents. “The archives remained inaccessible until this year, for obscure reasons,” says Mourre. Mamadou Diouf, a Senegalese historian who heads the commemoration committee for the Thiaroye massacre this year, says Sall did not show much interest in the subject in order to avoid diplomatic tensions with France. But Senegal’s President Bassirou Diomaye Faye, who was elected in March in part on a promise of redefining Senegal’s relationship with the former colonizer, has vowed to regain control of the historical narrative on Thiaroye. His administration has organized major commemorations of the massacre from Dec. 1 to April 2025 across the country. “The authorities' goal behind the major commemorations is to make Thiaroye part of Senegal’s national story,” said Babacar Ndiaye, political analyst at the Wathi think tank, which focuses on political and economic issues in West Africa. “It will be talked about a lot on television, in the press and most importantly on social media,” he adds. “This will reach a younger audience who might know little about the events of Thiaroye.” The 80th anniversary of the massacre comes as France’s influence is declining in the region, with Paris losing its sway in its former West African colonies. French troops have been ousted in recent years from Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso after years of fighting Islamic extremists alongside regional troops. Earlier this week, Chad, one of the last countries in the region in which France had maintained a large military presence, ended a military cooperation agreement with Paris. France still has around 350 troops in Senegal, mainly in a supportive role. Asked about their continued presence, Faye suggested it is not be something the Senegalese would want. “Historically, France enslaved, colonized and stayed here,” he said. “Obviously, I think that when you reverse the roles a little, you will have a hard time conceiving that another army — of China, Russia, Senegal, or any other country — could have a military base in France.”Intapp stock soars to all-time high, hits $60.92
The Ontario NDP has nominated former city councillor and mayoral candidate Catherine McKenney as their pick to represent the party in Ottawa-Centre in the next provincial election. McKenney announced their bid to run for the seat currently held by MPP Joel Harden since 2018 last month. Harden is seeking the federal NDP nomination in Ottawa Centre in the next election. "I am thrilled to stand alongside Marit Stiles and the Ontario NDP as we fight for a better future for Ontario and a strong voice for Ottawa Centre," McKenney said in a news release on Saturday. "I'm running because I know Ottawa Centre residents want a government that works as hard as they do. Together, we can finally build communities where you can thrive, with homes you can afford, transit that you can rely on, health care that's there when you need it. Together, we can build the Ontario you deserve." McKenney was first elected councillor for the downtown riding of Somerset in 2014, serving two terms as councillor. They finished second in the race for mayor in 2022. McKenney is trans/non-binary and uses they/them pronouns. "Catherine is a powerhouse," said Ontario NDP leader Marit Stiles. "They have a track record of effective and compassionate leadership that has served Ottawa residents well. Together, we can get our province back on track and focused on the basics - building homes, hiring doctors, fixing schools, and making life more affordable." In 2023, McKenney launched a new organization to help build better cities, called CitySHAPES. The non-profit agency planned to lead advocacy, policy and community engagement to spark change and build better cities in Canada, according to the group. The next provincial election must be held before June 2026 but Premier Doug Ford has declined to say whether he plans to stick to that date.

Rayna Chand’s diligence in keeping up to remain top of her class since Year One paid off when she scored the highest mark in the Fiji Eighth Year Examination for the Northern Division. The 13-year-old head girl of Wainikoro Public School in Macuata scored 485 marks out of 500. It is the first time for WPS to make such achievement. Her marks are English 97, Mathematics 94, Basic Science 100, Healthy Living 97, Social Science 97 and Hindi 88. She thanked her parents, class teacher, subject teachers and head teacher. “I feel proud to be the first student at my school to score the highest marks in Vanua Levu,” the Taganikula native said. “I studied to make my parents proud since my father is an electrician working in Suva my mum, an admin staff in my school, work diligently to provide all my needs.” The elder sibling to a brother, said she studied late at nights and always woke up at 4am to carry out revision. “I have always come first in my school since Year One,” the aspiring doctor said. “Like other students, I also struggled but I never used it as an excuse to achieve my goal.” Mum, Shareeni Lal said she was proud of her daughter and would be sending her to Labasa College for further education.
