Denied opportunity to study, abandoned 14-year-old girl lodges complaint against parents in UP's Jalesar
In a case of child cruelty and abandonment, a 14-year-old girl from Jalesar town in Etah district has filed a complaint against her parents for denying her the opportunity to study further in Class 10. Subsequently, a case was registered as the Child Welfare Committee in Etah took up the matter with the police. The girl is a resident of Jalesar town in Etah district of Uttar Pradesh. (REPRESENTATIVE IMAGE) As the parents abandoned the girl, she has now been sent to the Child Welfare Centre in Noida, according to the police. The case was registered at the Jalesar police station on Tuesday under Section 75 (cruelty towards children) of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act 2015 against the father Digambar Singh and the mother Lata Devi, said Sudhir Kumar Singh, the officer in charge of the Jalesar police station. The FIR (a copy of which is with HT) said the 14- year-old girl Bhawna, a student of Siddharth Inter College in Jalesar (Etah), asked her parents for registration for Class 10, but they (parents) stated their inability to pay her fees. The girl alleged that she was badly beaten by father last month when she insisted on continuing her education and that of her younger brother. According to the FIR, her parents reportedly took her to Agra Jalesar Road on July 25 where she was beaten again. A passerby Ankit Pradhan intervened, rescuing Bhawna and taking her, her mother, and brother to a checkpost, the FIR said. From there, the mother allegedly took her son and abandoned Bhawna, who, along with Ankit Pradhan, was then taken to the Jalesar Kotwali police station. The FIR stated that Bhawna's father lodged a false complaint on Dial 112, accusing Ankit Pradhan of kidnapping his wife and children. The police have now facilitated Bhawna's registration for Class 10 and given her ₹2000. 'The matter was handed over to the Child Welfare Committee. The police got the registration of the girl done in school for Class 10 and bought her a pair of dresses and handed over ₹2000 to her as it was for a noble cause. The girl has been sent to Child Welfare Centre in Noida now ,' stated Sudhir Kumar Singh, the officer incharge of Jalesar police station in Etah. 'The parents of the girl virtually abandoned and are not turning up despite being called repeatedly. As they are highly uncooperative, the Child Welfare Committee (CWC) approached the police,' Singh said. Lata Devi had married Digambar Singh 18 years ago after the death of her first husband. Both Bhawna and younger brother, aged seven, were born to the couple. Digambar Singh is from Ballabhgarh in Haryana and works in Delhi.

Chaos, delays at post-office: Server woe clashes with Rakhi rush, poorly serving people & staff
Bhopal: An unusually crowded, noisy and haphazard scene would've greeted a person if they were to visit the main post office in TT Nagar on Tuesday. Long queues at each window and loud sporadic arguments and quarelling due to the "server problem" became a common sight. With the Raksha Bhandhan festival nearing, people were eager to send rakhis and gifts through posts from kin far away, the postal department servers played spoilsport. For the last two days the department servers have been down nationally, and no parcels could be booked via speed post service. Consumers are making rounds of sub-offices to main offices, without any luck. Instead, crowds are swelling by the hour at the post offices and restless consumers are arguing with the harried postal staff. "I've been standing here since 4pm and there is no guarantee when the system will be up and my parcel will be booked. Why is this slackness during festival hours, can't the department fix it?" asked a consumer. A staffer explained that the servers were down nationwide and are now fluctuating, leading to prolonged waiting times. Wishing anonymity he told TOI, "We cannot do much when the servers aren't working well. It's a pan-India issue due to the introduction of a new application last month. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Explore the Top 20 Cleanest and Safest Blue Flag Beaches Worldwide zenlifemag Learn More Undo Earlier, bookings were offline too but now it is all online," Chote Lal, a resident, said, "I was standing in the queue for the entire day and my speed post was only sent around 6:00 pm." Another resident, Bhawna, observed the long queues and server issues at the office gates and remarked, "There's some technical problem, so we'll return to the office again tomorrow." Reeta Garg, senior superintendent at Central Post Office, TT Nagar said, "New states are being added to the recently launched application, so it has slowed down a bit. The new application is in a transition phase but we're expecting that it will be resolved by tomorrow (Wednesday). Keeping the Rakhi festival in mind, we'll be opening all major post offices in Bhopal early at 7.30 am starting Wednesday till Aug 9 to cover up for the inconvenience faced by people. " Meanwhile, another staffer at the office anonymously stated that they hope the servers become fully operational today; otherwise, early opening of the office at 7:30 am will not benefit anyone— the consumers or the employees.
