Government Law College demands removal of GLC from social media channel
'GLC Law and Lore' is a podcast initiative aimed at bridging the gap between legal education and real-world practice by connecting students, alumni, faculty, and prospective students of GLC.
GLC on Monday issued a formal public clarification and cautionary notice to its students.
The initiative is launched on Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube, sharing content involving legal professionals, students, and alumni, and prominently carries the acronym 'GLC' in its branding, which is 'both unauthorised and misleading", the college administration said.
'While the content may be well-intentioned and may include individuals connected to the legal field, the use of the name 'GLC' (commonly associated with Government Law College, Mumbai) in the branding of this channel is unauthorised and misleading," it stated.
The notice sought immediate removal of 'GLC" in the channel's name, branding, or any related communication, and to refrain from suggesting any formal connection with the Government Law College.
The notice was issued to protect the name, reputation, and integrity of the college, it stated, adding that any continued misuse of the institution's name may compel the college to consider further appropriate action. PTI SM NSK

Trump takes unexpected walk on White House roof to survey new projects
Washington, Aug 5 (AP) President Donald Trump's day began typically enough, with a television interview and a call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Then it took an unexpected and unusual turn when he appeared on the roof of the White House's West Wing. Late Tuesday morning, Trump emerged from a door connected to the State Dining Room and stepped onto the roof above the press briefing room and west colonnade that walls the Rose Garden. He spent nearly 20 minutes surveying the rooftop and the grounds below, including a newly paved makeover of the Rose Garden. Reporters, tipped off by the out-of-the-ordinary positioning of snipers above the Oval Office, shouted questions from below. One called out: 'Sir, why are you on the roof?" 'Taking a little walk," Trump shouted back. 'It's good for your health." Trump walked with a small group that included James McCrery, architect of the newly announced USD 200 million ballroom project. They moved slowly, with Trump frequently gesturing and pointing at the roof and grounds. Several times, he wandered toward the corner nearest the press corps, waving and cupping his hands to shout responses to shouted questions. At one point, he said he was looking at 'another way to spend my money for this country." Later, near the end of his appearance on the roof, Trump was asked what he was going to build. He quipped, 'Nuclear missiles." The unexpected walk on the rooftop comes as Trump looks to leave a lasting footprint on what's often referred to as 'The People's House." He has substantially redecorated the Oval Office through the addition of golden flourishes and cherubs, presidential portraits and other items and installed massive flagpoles on the north and south lawns to fly the American flag. And last week, his administration announced that construction on a massive ballroom will begin in September and be ready before Trump's term ends in early 2029. While Trump appeared on the West Wing, the White House has said the ballroom will be where the 'small, heavily changed, and reconstructed East Wing currently sits." While rare, there have been times through the years where presidents ventured out onto — and even slept on — the White House roof. To promote renewable energy, President Jimmy Carter installed 32 solar panels on the West Wing roof in the 1970s. The panels were removed during the Reagan administration. In 1910, President William Howard Taft had a sleeping porch built on the roof to escape Washington's hot summer nights.

Attempt To Burn Down US ICE Office In Washington Amid Crackdown On Illegal Immigrants
A suspected arsonist targeted a US immigration building in Washington, days after protests and rising anger over mass deportations. A suspected arsonist tried to set fire to a US immigration office in Yakima, Washington, over the weekend, in what appears to be a targeted attack amid growing tensions over deportations. According to officials who spoke to the The New York Post, the attacker first threw a rock through a window of the building which is listed as a field office of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), before starting a fire behind the property on Saturday. The New York-based newspaper, which was the first to report the development, said that photos from the scene show black smoke rising as flames charred the grass outside. No injuries were reported and federal immigration agents at the site escaped unhurt, it said. The attempted arson comes at a time when deportation crackdowns have sparked anxiety in migrant communities, including among South Asians. ICE operations have picked up pace in recent weeks, with rising concerns about detentions and removals, especially of undocumented workers. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
