Kg Parit Seberang in Kuala Pilah selected as IGP's MADANI adopted village
KUALA PILAH: A total of RM1 million has been allocated to upgrade Kampung Parit Seberang, which has been selected as the Inspector-General of Police's (IGP) Kampung Angkat MADANI (MADANI Adopted Village). Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain said that the village was selected by the Bukit Aman Crime Prevention and Community Safety Department (JPJKK), based on its infrastructure status, which was assessed to be below 50 per cent complete, and in need of special attention. He said that the Kampung Parit Seberang Village Development and Security Committee (JPKK) encompasses three villages - Kampung Parit Mainau, Kampung Parit Mungkal and Kampung Parit Istana - covering a total area of 3.3 square kilometres. 'I would like to share that RM1 million has been allocated, through the Ministry of Finance, to support the entire initiative to upgrade the village, not to mention, omak sey oghang sini (my mother is from here),' he said. He added that, beyond narrowing the development gap in basic infrastructure between rural and urban areas, the programme aims to deliver high-quality community services, through collaboration between ministries, departments, agencies, and public universities. He said this at the IGP's MADANI Adopted Village community programme, held in Kampung Parit Seberang, which was also attended by state senior executive councillor, Datuk Seri Jalaluddin Alias, here, today. Razarudin said the proposed upgrade projects include improvements to buildings, landscaping and fencing around the Kampung Parit Seberang surau, road repairs and resurfacing, refurbishment of the Kampung Parit Seberang community hall, and the installation of 20 solar-powered street lights throughout the village. He added that the upgrading works are being closely monitored by the Bukit Aman JPJKK and the Kuala Pilah district police headquarters (IPD), with the aim of ensuring that all improvements are implemented with good governance. 'I have high hopes that this government initiative will be put to good use, for the comfort and well-being of the local community,' he said. Meanwhile, Kampung Parit Seberang JPKK chairman Hasnan Abd Malek, 55, expressed his gratitude to the government for selecting the village as the IGP's MADANI Adopted Village. 'This selection is a great advantage in our aim to achieve zero crime. Alhamdulillah, it will bring many benefits to the villagers, especially in terms of security, as there will now be regular police patrols in the village,' he said.

'Discrimination Of Dalits After 80 Years Painful': Madras High Court On Temple Row
Chennai: The continued discrimination against Dalits, 80 years after independence, is painful to see, the Madras High Court said Thursday as it heard a plea demanding the Tamil Nadu government intervene to ensure the community can enter temples, such as one in Pudukkottai district. The plea also seeks identification of the arsonists and individuals who attacked Dalit-owned homes and vehicles on May 5, as well as damage assessment and financial compensation. The Madurai bench of the court rebuked the Collectors and Superintendent of Police for the Puddukkottai and Karur districts, reminding them theirs aren't "only white collar jobs" and that it was unfair to only take action - when faced with caste-based violence - if a complaint is filed. "In some villages Dalits can't wear a shirt... walk in the street. If the Collector had gone, in disguise, to inspect the situation, the truth would have emerged," the court said. "Why didn't they (the Collector and senior police officers) visit the area?" the court asked, as it also directed submission of CCTV footage - from May 4 to May 7 - from the Pudukottai village. The petitioners had also alleged the police did not file cases against mob leaders. The Tamil Nadu government earlier told the court it had received no complaints of discrimination - despite videos of the violence at Vadakadu village on the night of May 5. Houses of Dalits were vandalised and set on fire, and a police constable was injured. Over a dozen individuals from the so-called upper castes and five Dalits were charged under the stringent SC/ST Act and with carrying weapons. Many were arrested, local reports said. Nearly two dozen others were admitted to local hospitals for treatment. The violence and the arson took place last week after Dalits were reportedly denied entry to the Mariamman Temple. One house, two cars, and six two-wheelers were set on fire. Predictably, each side has given different accounts of the how the violence began. However it did, the trigger was a temple festival at which Dalits were reportedly carrying ceremonial umbrellas. This led to a verbal argument that snowballed into violence.

Colts' Jim Irsay with parting message to Ryan Kelly after signing with Vikings
Colts' Jim Irsay with parting message to Ryan Kelly after signing with Vikings Long-time center for the Colts Ryan Kelly is signing with the Vikings, and owner Jim Irsay has a parting message. Long-time center for the Indianapolis Colts Ryan Kelly will be wearing new colors in 2025 after signing with the Minnesota Vikings, and owner Jim Irsay had a parting message for him. "It's been an honor to watch Ryan represent the Horseshoe and he will forever be a part of the Colts' family, wrote Irsay. "Ryan is the only center our franchise has ever selected in the first round of the NFL draft, and he developed into an All-Pro and Pro Bowl player over nine seasons. "As great as he was on the field, Ryan, along with his wife Emma, made just as big of an impact off the field. They've used their platform to advocate for families and bring awareness to 'Count the Kicks' and 'Concerns of Police Survivors' in addition to other community initiatives. Their courage, strength, and resilience have been an inspiration to so many. We will always have a special place in our hearts for Ryan, Emma, Mary Kate, Ford, Duke and Stella Kelly." Kelly was the 18th overall pick in the 2016 NFL draft by the Colts and has started 121 games in his career with Indianapolis. During his tenure with the Colts, Kelly has been a multi-time team captain, a four-time Pro Bowler, and an All-Pro in 2020. Kelly is joining the Vikings on a two-year, $18 million deal. In his place in Indianapolis, presumably, Tanor Bortolini will be the Colts' starting center in 2025.
