Delhi is not as safe as other cities. Folks, especially woman should be more aware of their surroundings. Its not a good idea to get on a bus with no passenger later in the evening.

delhi police brutality

delhi police brutality

How is this brutality? People are too quick to use such terms. This is what anti-riot action looks like in most countries. It's not pretty but the police are responding to the situation in front of them ie widespread disorder and violence. As far as I can see the agoI has taken many measures in the light of the most recent horrid attack to improve the situation in th future. What did these hooligans hope to achieve ? It seems like in many cases people like to put themselves in a precarious postion and the cry martyr when action is taken against them. Did they really think they would be allowed to walk into high security areas? Did they really think the govt would allow widespread destruction and hooliganism?

Now a policeman is dead- will we see protests about this??

Peaceful protest is a scared right in India but what these THUGS did was criminality pure and simple.

Nirbhaya’s condition worsening, say doctors

NEW DELHI: With each passing day, the condition of Nirbhaya — as TOI has symbolically named the victim — is deteriorating. Doctors say internal bleeding started on Sunday night due to clotting of blood vessels.

Her platelet count and white blood cell (WBC) count have shot up. Doctors, however, say it is due to the supplementation.

On Sunday, there was severe bleeding in her abdominal cavity. Doctors attribute it to Disseminated Intravascular Coagulopathy, a condition in which clots are formed in blood vessels. As these clots consume the coagulation proteins and platelets, normal coagulation is disrupted. "There is bleeding in the abdominal cavity. DIC has happened due to the infection and repeated blood transfusion. This was the prime reason for the sharp fall in her platelet count on Sunday. We are trying to control the bleeding. Compared to Sunday, her condition is not good today,'' said Dr M C Misra, chief of AIIMS Trauma Centre.

She has been given fresh frozen plasma, single donor plasma and platelet rich plasma to increase her platelet level. "The platelet count has gone up due to supplementation. Though her bilirubin level has come down to 5.5, white blood cell count has increased to 6,000 and urine output is normal, she continues to be critical because of internal bleeding. She also has high fever. We have not tried to take her off the ventilator,'' said Dr B D Athani, medical superintendent, Safdarjung Hospital.

On Monday, doctors carried out another psychiatric evaluation of the victim. They also spoke to the family to assess their condition. "She is psychologically composed. We asked her a lot of questions but there was no sign of anxiety or depression. We have started supportive psychotherapy. We are also providing psychiatric help to the family,'' said a senior psychiatric with Safdarjung Hospital.

Despite her deteriorating medical condition, doctors are still hopeful she will come through. "We have put her on a high dose of broad spectrum antibiotics. Once the infection is under control, she will recover fast,'' said a senior doctor.

Nirbhaya’s condition worsening, say doctors

Sad but this is on expected lines. Anyone with even a little knowledge of medicine would be deeply pessimistic about her chances.

'Theek hai?': PM’s speech gaffe overshadows his address to the nation

NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh finally addressed the nation on Monday morning to calm the protestors agitating against the gang-rape incident in Delhi. But a gaffe at the end of the speech, which was broadcast by major news channels, only left the protesters more incensed.

After finishing his speech the PM asked, probably the cameraperson filming him, "theek hai?". The few-second long footage was somehow not edited out before the statement was sent to television channels. It soon made its way to YouTube and was shared by thousands of web users on Twitter and Facebook.

The netizens on Twitter and Facebook took "theek hai" part of the speech as a show of political apathy and indifference. Using the hashtag #theekhai, they ridiculed the PM and his government. Many wrote that 'it is not #theek hai'.

In less than an hour after the speech, #theekhai became the top Twitter trend for India. Since then thousands of tweets have been using the hashtag.

Rahul Kanwal(@rahulkanwal), a journalist, tweeted: "If sab #TheekHai there'd be no reason for you to speak @PMOIndia."

Chetan Bhagat (@chetan_bhagat), a writer, said, "Madam, madam sorry madam, maine aise hi pooch liya #theekhai? Aage se will stick to the script. Theek hai? Oops madam, sorry.. hello? hello?"

Faking News (@fakingnews) noted, "LOL! #TheekHai is already trending in India. Twitter can earn billions if it sells a control panel to gov that could censor trending topics."

However, some people were not in favour of making a big deal of the gaffe. Culdivsac (@culdivsac) tweeted: "Lol, what's the big deal abt #theekhai? The PM was giving a take for the camera & expressed his approval of the take. So? Just lazy editing."

It is reported that five Doordarshan employees have been placed under suspension for the faux pas

“Theek hai?” asked Prime Minister Manmohan Singh at the end of his just-over-a-minute-long address to the nation this morning asking people to maintain peace after Sunday’s violence during the protests in Delhi against the rape of a student.

Obviously meant to be only for the people recording Dr. Singh’s address to the nation, the words, which mean “Is it fine?”, were broadcast on all television channels.

Within no time, tweeters were on the job. Journalist Rahul Kanwal (@rahulkanwal) pointed out: “If sabTheekHai, there’d be no reason for you to speak @PMOIndia. Wish words seemed as if they came from the heart & not from sheet of paper.”

“Sorry, but PM’s speech was without feeling, wooden and totally unequal to the situation. The ‘theek hai’ at the end revealed it as theatre!”, CNN-IBN’s Sagarika Ghose (@sagarikaghose) tweeted.

Actor Anupam Kher said that the manner in which the Prime Minister asked his staff or the TV crew whether everything was alright “was d most Candid & Natural expression I have EVER seen from him”

Authoritative sources told The Hindu that the Prime Minister’s Office had given two time slots for recording to Doordarshan and ANI but apparently the Doordarshan team could not make it on time. The ANI decided to telecast the Prime Minister’s message live to 41 television channels with the last line “theek hai” not edited out.
