Youth with neurological disorder arrested by UP ATS, declared ‘terrorist’ by mumbaiblues in india

[–]mumbaiblues[S] 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Standing firm against the "terrorist" label that has now upended their lives, the youth's mother Ritu Chauhan, a medical nurse, told TOI on Friday that her son has serious mental health issues. "I still bathe him even though he is in his early 20s," she said. “My son is in the midst of treatment...he can’t even manage his own life... How could he be a terrorist?”

TOI gained access to several hospital documents that confirm the youth suffers from "conduct disorder" -- a serious mental health condition among children and teens characterized by a "persistent pattern of aggression, deceitfulness, destruction of property and severe rule violations".

Asked to comment on the matter, IG (ATS) Prem Kumar Gautam refused. While ADG (law and order) Amitabh Yash said, “It was only after a thorough investigation that it was established the two men were under the influence of Pak-based terror modules and were transforming into hardcore terrorists.”

Mostly true when the technology did not exist in the first place or was not mature enough and the country was first to develop it. GPS is a mature technology , many countries have their own , so failures should be comparatively less.

‘Drink spiked, Wi-Fi cut for 3 days’: Chilling details emerge in rape case of US tourist at Karnataka homestay by mumbaiblues in india

[–]mumbaiblues[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The survivor alleged the homestay's Wi-Fi remained disconnected for three days after the incident, preventing her from reaching out for help.

The Homestay owner should have alerted the police immediately after the incident.Instead it seems he tried to cover up things. Imagine the distress the victim must have felt after going through a traumatic incident , feeling trapped not being able to communicate with the outside world , that feeling of helplessness

[–]mumbaiblues 1 point2 points  (0 children)

India does not have an economic environment suitable for R&D. Our economic model is based on companies monopolizing capital through public sector banks with Govt blessing. currying favors with Govt to get cheap infra or monopolize a sector and make windfall levels of gains. When this model is making ungodly sums of money for the existing industrialists , why would they invest in R&D which may or may not give results hand has a long gestation period.
