As a result of this bandh, there will likely be no classes in many colleges across Telangana on July 3 and 4. This could turn into an extended weekend, especially with Muharram falling on Friday, July 5, followed by Sunday on July 6. In total, college students may get up to four days off. (News18 Telugu)
For school students, a two-day holiday is expected. Muharram is an important observance in the Muslim community, and the Telangana government usually declares a general holiday for it. According to the 2025 state government calendar, July 5 (Saturday) is listed as an optional holiday, while July 6 (Sunday) is a general holiday. (News18 Telugu)
The string of holidays in July is expected to bring much-needed relief to students and teachers, especially after exams. It also offers families a chance to plan short trips or spend quality time together. (News18 Telugu)

Pratap Simha alleges govt targeting Dharmasthala
Mysuru: Former BJP MP Pratap Simha has accused the state government of targeting Dharmasthala, claiming they have already decided that its head, Dr. Veerendra Heggade, is guilty and are now searching for evidence to prove it. Speaking to the media, Simha said, 'The same people who showed disrespect by eating fish before visiting Dharmasthala are now trying to destroy its reputation through an investigation.' He alleged that the current search for a skeleton has no connection to the Soujanya case and is a premeditated attempt by the government to seize control of the temple.'They claim thousands of murders have occurred at Dharmasthala. Is that even possible? Is the head of Dharmasthala a new Dawood Ibrahim to order hundreds of murders?' Simha questioned. He described the attacks on Dharmasthala as a 'systematic conspiracy,' criticizing Hindus for falling for the disinformation being spread by 'some person from the Muslim faith.' 'This is the first case where an accused is decided without a single piece of evidence, and then they start looking for proof,' he said. Simha also expressed his solidarity with Soujanya's family, stating, 'We are all on Soujanya's side. The case has been investigated by three different agencies. If Soujanya's mother wants another investigation, let her say so, and we will personally file a petition for her in court.' He demanded that the identity and background of the anonymous person making these accusations be made public.

Delhi HC pulls up police for separating interfaith couple: ‘If couple wants marriage, will protect them' rules judge
The Delhi High Court on Friday came to the rescue of an interfaith couple, ordering for their continued protection and stay at a government safe house, while pulling up the police for allegedly separating the couple instead of providing them protection. The court also sought that the police identify the personnel responsible for the same. A 26-year old Muslim man, in a relationship with a 25-year old Hindu woman since 2018, had moved HC last month seeking its urgent directions to the Delhi Police to provide the couple necessary protection and a safe house. The request was made after the couple expressed their intent to marry, which was met with familial opposition and threats. According to advocate Utkarsh Singh, representing the man, instead of being provided with the safety, the couple was 'forcibly separated', with the woman 'medically examined, and later detained at a woman's shelter July 24, despite her repeated pleas to be with her partner. The police, in a status report filed before HC on August 6, asserted 'there was no element of coercion, unlawful separation, or procedural irregularity at any stage', with all actions 'taken purely from a welfare and constitutional standpoint,' with due regard to the woman's 'safety and autonomy'. The police's submission, however, did not convince the court. The woman, who virtually interacted with Justice Sanjeev Narula on Friday, said that she was taken away forcibly by the police and separated from her partner. She asserted that when the couple had initially sought protection, the police had said 'there is no such thing as a safe cell', and coerced her into undergoing a medical examination. 'I went for a medical examination and without telling me or without my consent, I was taken to a shelter home,' she told Justice Narula, adding that all her personal belongings were taken away, including her phone. Orally remarking that 'police has to sensitise its officers' and that they are 'forcibly separating' consenting adult partners, Justice Narula expressed disapproval with the police's status report. 'Has he (the police personnel who filed the status report) even interacted with the (woman) to understand what has happened? I'm not going to allow this at all.' The HC also refused to allow the woman's father – who is opposed to the relationship – to interfere, noting that he has 'no role' given that his daughter is an adult and has consented to the relationship. The father's counsel impressed before the court that 'social reality has to be taken into consideration', with 'in Indian society, parents have to be consulted' for marriage. To this, the court orally responded, 'What law requires an adult to ask father for marrying someone of different faith?… You are insisting on something that I cannot appreciate… Constitutional right guarantees she can marry of her choice and I am going to honour that… If the couple wants to get married, I am going to protect them.' After sustained interaction with the woman, Justice Narula went on to assure her orally, 'If you are firm about your decision, we will support you. I am supporting your choice, I will support your decision.' 'As far as the police are concerned, they will support you,' the HC said, while recording in its order that the woman's 'intention to marry is informed and consistent based on her relationship with him (her partner) over the past seven years'.

Govt under pressure to disown my film: Maker of ‘Khalid ka Shivaji'
Mumbai: A day after the Information and Broadcasting ministry suspended the Censor certificate granted to Marathi film 'Khalid Ka Shivaji' and stopped its release for a month, its director Raj Pritam More told TOI he was "saddened and disappointed" that the govt was "disowning" a film it had submitted to the Cannes Film Festival this year. "My film was sent to Cannes after the expert committee gave positive feedback. Now govt has succumbed to the pressure and unjust demand from some groups who are objecting to it only on the basis of its trailer. I am deeply saddened and disappointed," said More. Right wing groups have objected to Maratha warrior-king Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj 's "secular" portrayal in 'Khalid Ka Shivaji" which, they alleged, distorts Shivaji's legacy through wrong depiction and factual inaccuracy.

"This is an honestly made film which presents Shivaji in a positive light. I am not a historian, but I think some people cannot digest that the film questions if every Muslim should be seen as Afzal Khan," said actor-director Makrand Deshpande who attended the premier recently. The movie, said More, looks at the experiences of a class 5 student, who is bullied by classmates who call him Afzal Khan, a general of the Adil Shahi dynasty whom Shivaji killed in combat. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Resmed AirSense 11 with flat 20% off ResMed Buy Now Undo Through the experiences of a Muslim fifth grader called Khalid, the director said, he wanted to convey that Shivaji's policies were inclusive and he did not discriminate against any community. "In a scene, a teacher says there were many Muslims in Shivaji's army. Who can deny that?" asked More. Cultural Affairs minister Ashish Shelar said on Thursday that an inquiry had been set up to probe how 'Khalid Ka Shivaji' got selected for the Cannes festival. While announcing four works, including 'Khalid…', to be screened at Cannes in May, Shelar had said that the film "highlights the thoughts of young minds and their quest for identity in today's society." However, on Friday, he denied he had seen or praised the film. "I only announced the four films the experts had selected," he told TOI. Explaining why the state had demanded suspension of the certificate issued by the Central Board of Film Certification, he said: "Many dialogues in the film have drawn sharp objections from Shivaji Maharaj's devotees and historians. Acting on these concerns, I directed the secretary of cultural affairs to investigate how this film was granted certification by CBFC, whether the examining committee carried out a proper review and whether there was any deliberate mischief involved.
