Dharmasthala mass burial row: SIT probe finds few remains, BJP alleges conspiracy
In this episode of Super 6, the focus is on the controversy surrounding Dharmasthala in Karnataka. Allegations by a former sanitation worker claimed the burial of hundreds of bodies at the holy site. A Special Investigation Team (SIT) probe was initiated, identifying 15 spots for exhumation. Authorities have completed the exhumation process up to spot number 13. So far, "human remains have been found only at one site and another site slightly afar, they found a few remains. But that's about it." This finding has led to Hindu groups and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) alleging a conspiracy to target the temple administration. BJP legislators are scheduled to visit Dharmasthala on August 17th amidst the ongoing SIT investigation.

Cong's top dist posts go to SC & OBC leaders in Jat-dominated Rohtak
Rohtak: The Congress party announced the names of its rural and urban district presidents for Rohtak — both from non-Jat communities, despite the region's reputation as a Jat stronghold. While some party workers appear dissatisfied with the decision, none have voiced open dissent so far. Kuldeep KD, from the OBC community, was appointed the Rohtak Urban Congress president, while Balwan Ranga, from the Scheduled Caste (SC) community, was given the charge of the rural unit. Both are long-time Congress loyalists and close associates of former chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda , a factor seen as key to their selection. Balwan Ranga, the new rural district president, hails from Ghilaur village and has deep roots in Congress politics. A party member since childhood, he first became the Youth Congress district president in 1989. Between 2013 and 2022, he served as the head of the Ravidas Hostel and was village sarpanch from 2016 to 2021. Since 2015, he has also been the district president of the Congress SC Cell in the state. A staunch supporter of Bhupinder Singh Hooda, his loyalty is believed to have played a significant role in his appointment. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Use an AI Writing Tool That Actually Understands Your Voice Grammarly Install Now Undo Kuldeep KD, the new urban district president, also comes from a Congress family and has been an active member of Team Deepender Hooda for years.

Court orders FIR against BJP members for indecent remarks against advocate representing sedition accused
Hisar: A court in Fatehabad has directed the police to register an FIR against three BJP functionaries and their two supporters for allegedly making indecent and derogatory remarks against an advocate representing a man accused of sedition. Dr Mushtaq Ahmed, who runs a bone-setting clinic in Fatehabad, had uploaded edited videos on Facebook that were critical of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and mocked the ceasefire announcement between India and Pakistan after Operation Sindoor. On the complaint of Fatehabad BJP district vice-president Jagdish Rai Sharma, mandal president Vikas Sharma, and vice-president Paramjit Beniwal, the city police had registered an FIR against Ahmed. Vinay Sharma, former president, Fatehabad District Bar Association, alleged the accused began targeting him after he took up the defence of Ahmed. Sharma alleged that on May 20, BJP supporter Layak Ram Garhwal posted in a WhatsApp group that "a Congress lawyer is fighting the case of a traitor". Despite his objections, Layak Ram continued to post remarks. On May 21, Sharma claimed he found a Facebook post by one Dhananjay Agarwal featuring Ahmed's photo and alleging that "his lawyer will be a Congress, leftist person… the network is big, funding comes from there". by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Health and comfort: the comfiest slip-on shoes of the year Ultra-Comfortable Shoes Undo Sharma lodged a complaint with the police.
