New Delhi, Dec 22 (PTI) In a rare show of co-operation between VK Saxena and the AAP dispensation, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi on Sunday visited Rangpuri Pahari to take stock of the area's civic amenities that were flagged by the lieutenant governor. Ahead of elections to the Delhi Assembly, due in February, Saxena had on Saturday shared a clip of his visit to Rangpuri Pahari, detailing the plight of people, especially women, in the area. The lieutenant governor had said it was extremely disappointing and distressing to witness once again the helplessness and pathetic life conditions of lakhs of people of the national capital. He had referred to the local women, citing their problems of living in the area, with streets lined by overflowing sewers and lack of basic facilities. Earlier, a similar situation was seen in areas such as Burari, Kirari, Kalandar Colony, Sangam Vihar, Mundka and Gokulpuri, among others, he had said. "I urge the former chief minister, current chief minister and ministers of the Delhi government to visit such areas to themselves witness the hellish conditions. They should take immediate steps to improve this pathetic condition," he had said. Responding to the concerns, AAP supremo and former chief minister Arvind Kejriwal thanked Saxena for flagging the shortcomings, saying the Delhi government would take steps for improvements. "Earlier, the lieutenant governor had cited the bad condition of the Nangloi-Mundka Road. The road has been constructed and Chief Minister Atishi will soon inaugurate it. I urge the lieutenant governor to tell us about the shortcomings and we will correct them," Kejriwal said in a press conference. The lieutenant governor had called upon the stakeholders to come together and make Delhi great again. He had visited Rangpuri Pahari and Kapashera on the request of locals. He was accompanied by the BJP's former South Delhi MP Ramesh Bidhuri. There are no drains, leading to silt- and dirty water-filled streets, non-existent roads, uncertain electricity supply and shortage of drinking water that forces women to carry water in buckets from tankers coming to the area once in seven to eight days, Saxena had said. The locals also complained of power cuts for eight to 10 hours every day as well as huge power bills, contrary to the claims of free electricity by the Delhi government, he had said. Saxena had also given suggestions to officials of agencies, including the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) and the Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board (DUSIB), to improve the situation. He had also assured the locals that a sanitation drive would begin and he would personally monitor the progress of steps being taken to improve the civic amenities. (This story has not been edited by THE WEEK and is auto-generated from PTI)A GIRL was found brutally strangled to death in woodland just two hours after she disappeared - more than 30 years ago. Stacey Queripel, seven, was reported missing by her mum from her home in the Ladybank area of Bracknell at 7pm on January 24, 1993. A police dog handler found her body at 9pm the same day in the woods near South Hill Park in the Berkshire town. Her cause of death was strangulation, a post-mortem examination concluded. An inquest later recorded Stacey's brutal death as unlawful killing. No-one has ever been charged over Stacey's murder despite fresh police appeals. Last year Thames Valley Police's Peter Beirne said: "I believe there are people who have information or suspicions about Stacey’s murder. "But for whatever reason they have yet to inform the police. The time has come to provide that information." Beirne added: "If you have any suspicions whatsoever, we want to hear from you. "My team will never stop investigating cold case murders and sexual offences. "We have secured convictions for 19 stranger rapes and six murders with ever advancing forensic technology. "We will lock up more offenders, and bring justice to other victims and their families. "We are determined to discover the truth about what happened to Stacey. "So I reiterate again that if anyone has any information or even a suspicion as to what happened, please contact us or Crimestoppers. "Get that burden off your shoulders and let us investigate any information that you have." If you can help detectives, call 101 or visit a police station quoting reference 650 (23/1). Alternatively, you can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Thames Valley Police has been contacted for an update on the investigation.
Another big-time college football quarterback has entered the transfer portal. Tulane quarterback Darian Mensah is reportedly entering the transfer portal when it officially opens on Monday, according to multiple reports, including ESPN's Pete Thamel . The redshirt freshman should be among the top signal callers in the portal, given his production and three seasons of eligibility remaining. REQUIRED READING: Alabama, ACC headline winners and losers from College Football Playoff bracket reveal A first-year starter in 2024, Mensah beat out former blue-chip Oregon quarterback Ty Thompson, a junior in his first season with the Green Wave . The 6-foot-3 quarterback completed 189 of 287 passes (65.9%) for 2,723 yards with 22 touchdowns to six interceptions, adding 132 rushing yards and a touchdown. Mensah led Tulane to the American Athletic Conference championship game on Friday, which it lost to Army 35-14. Overall, Tulane finished 9-4 on the season with two losses to Power Four programs in Kansas State and Oklahoma, both of which he performed well against. In fact, Mensah's career-high in passing yards is 342, which came against the Wildcats after he nearly led Tulane to an upset win after completing 19 of 29 passes with two touchdowns to an interception. Mensah finished 14 of 32 passing for 166 yards with a touchdown to an interception against the Sooners ' stout defense in nonconference play. The San Luis Obispo, California, native is not yet ranked by 247Sports' Composite transfer rankings, however, he will likely be ranked much higher than out of high school, when he was a 2-star recruit tabbed the nation's No. 2289 player overall and No. 135 quarterback. Tulane and Idaho State were reportedly the schools to make him offers, with the former obviously being his choice. Mensah joins other high-end transfer portal quarterbacks like Texas A&M's Conner Weigman, USC's Miller Moss, Oklahoma's Jackson Arnold and Liberty's Kaidon Salter, with presumably many more additions to come when the transfer portal officially opens Monday.AP Business SummaryBrief at 7:36 a.m. ESTOhio State face Marshall in the 2024 NCAA DI men’s soccer tournament semifinals on Friday, December 13, 2024 (12/13/24) at the WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary, North Carolina.
