हत्या में दो सगे भाइयों समेत छह को उम्रकैद
हत्या में दो सगे भाइयों समेत छह को उम्रकैद
अपर जिला एवं सत्र न्यायाधीश तृतीय राम मनोहर नरायन मिश्रा की अदालत ने 19 वर्ष पूर्व नगर थाने के महरीपुर निवासी राम सहाय सिंह की हत्या के मामले में दो सगे भाइयों समेत छह को उम्र कैद की सजा सुना दी है। प्रत्येक पर दस हजार का जुर्माना भी न्यायालय ने लगाया है।
अभियोजन के अनुसार नगर थाने के महरीपुर निवासी सत्य प्रकाश सिंह ने 19 वर्ष अपने पिता राम सहाय सिंह के हत्या की रिपोर्ट थाने में दर्ज कराई थी । तहरीर के मुताबिक , तीन फरवरी 1994 की शाम को पांच बजे ओमप्रकाश के घर के करीब महरीपुर के ही निवासी सब्बर उर्फ राजू, विजय कुमार, विनोद , रामजीत, हरिश्चंद्र व गोपाल पुरानी रंजिश को लेकर उसके पिता को घेर लिया। गोपाल ,रामजीत के ललकारने पर हरिश्चंद्र, विनोद व विजय चाकुओं से प्रहार करने लगे। इसी बीच सब्बर ने कट्टे से फायर किया। नतीजतन उसके पिता घायल होकर गिर पड़े। अस्पताल तक पहुंचते ही उनकी मौत हो गई। इस मामले में मंगलवार को ही न्यायालय ने आरोपियों को ही दोषी करार दे दिया गया था। जज ने बुधवार को उम्र कैद की सजा सुनादी। इस मामले में अभियोजन का पक्ष सहायक शासकीय अधिवक्ता फौजदारी राघवेश पांडेय ने रखा।

In the then United Provinces, the term
"Backward Classes" was understood as covering both the untouchable
classes as well other "Hindu Backward" classes. Marc Galanter says :
"The United Provinces Hindu Backward Classes
League (founded in 1929) submitted a memorandum which suggested that the term
"Depressed" carried a connotation "of untouchability in the
sense of causing pollution by touch as in the case of Madras and Bombay"
and that many communities were reluctant to identify themselves as depressed.
The League suggested the term "Hindu Backward" as a more suitable
nomenclature. The list of 115 castes submitted included all candidates from the
untouchable category as well as a stratum above. "All of the listed
communities belong to non-Dwijas or degenerate or Sudra classes of the
Hindus." They were described as low socially, educationally - and
economically and were said to number over 60% of the population."
The expression "depressed and other backward
classes" occurs in the Objectives Resolution of the Constituent Assembly
moved by Jawaharlal Nehru on December 13, 1946.
The Christians are divided into a number of groups,
including the Chaldean Syrians, Jacobite Syrians, Latin Catholics` Marthom
Syrians, Syrian Catholics,and Protestants. Each of these groups practices
endogamy. Among the Catholics, the Syrian Romans and the Latin Romans generally
do not intermarry. The Christians have not wholly discarded the idea of food
restrictions and pollution by lower caste members. When lower caste Hindus were
converted to Christianity a generation or two ago, they were not allowed to sit
with high caste Christians in church, and separate churches were erected for
them."

he argument is that although Cyprus is an
independent and sovereign republic with a democratic Constitution, die seats in
the legislature are divided between the Greek population following the
Greek-Orthodox Church and the Muslim Turkish community. There is a division
even at the highest level, the President always to be a Greek Christian and the
Vice-President a Muslim Turk. Mr. Nariman emphasised on the separate electorate
provided by Cyprus Constitution and urged that these provisions do not render
the Constitution undemocratic or illegal. He also referred to the Statesman's
Year Book (containing statistical and historical annual of the States of the
world for the year 1985-86) showing that the population of the Christian
community following Greek-Orthodox Church was in 1983, 5,28,700 but was
allotted only 70% of the seats in the legislature, and the Turkish Muslims with
a population of only 1,22,900, the remaining 30% of seats. In other words the
Muslims forming only about 20% of the total population

FEDERALISM UNDER CONSTITUTION
n short, in the affairs of the State (in its widest
connotation), religion is irrelevant; it is strictly a personal affair. In this
sense and in this behalf, our Constitution is broadly in agreement with the
U.S. Constitution, the First Amendment whereof declares that "Congress
shall make no laws respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the
free exercise thereof......." (generally referred to as the
"establishment clause"). Perhaps, this an echo of the doctrine of
separation of Church and State; may be it is the modern political thought which
seeks to separate religion from the State - it matters very little. In this
view of the matter, it is absolutely erroneous to say that secularism is a
"vacuous word" or a
25. The great
Statesman-Philosopher Dr. Radhakrishnan said:
"When India is said to be a secular State, it
does not mean that we reject reality of an unseen spirit or the relevance of
religion to life or that we exalt irreligion. It does not mean that Secularism
itself becomes a positive religion or that the State assumes divine
prerogatives. Though faith in the Supreme is the basic principle of the Indian
tradition, the Indian State will not identify itself with or be controlled by
any particular religion. We hold that no
one religion should be given preferential status, or unique distinction, that
no one religion should be accorded special privileges in national life or
international relations for that would be a violation of the basic principles
of democracy and contrary to the best
interests of religion and Government. This view of religious impartiality, of
comprehension and forbearance, has a prophetic role to play within the national
and @page-SC1951 international life. No
group of citizens shall arrogate to itself rights and privileges which it
denies to others. No person should suffer any form of disability or
discrimination because of his religion but all like should be free to share to
the fullest degree in the common life. This is the basic principle involved in
the separation of Church and State."
(Recovery of Faith, New York, Harper brothers 1955,
p. 202).

84. Section 3(26) of the General
Clauses Act comprehends the categories of properties known to Indian Law. Article 367 of the Constitution adopts this
secular concept of property for purposes of our Constitution. A temple, church or mosque etc. are
essentially immovable properties and subject to protection under Articles 25
and 26. Every immovable property is liable to be acquired. Viewed in the proper perspective, a mosque
does not enjoy any additional protection which is not available to religious
places of worship of other religions.
85. The correct position may be
summarised thus. Under the Mahomedan Law
applicable in India, title to a mosque can be lost by adverse possession (See
Mulla's Principles of Mahomedan Law, 19th Edn. by M. Hidayatullah - S.217
and AIR 1940 PC 116). If that is the position in law, there can be
no reason to hold that a mosque has a unique or special status, higher than
that of the places of worship of other religions in secular India to make it
immune from acquisition by exercise of the sovereign or prerogative power of
the State.

language of Article 25 indicates to secure to every person subject to public
order, health and morality, a freedom not only to entertain such religious
belief as may be approved of by his judgment and conscience but also to exhibit
his belief in such outward acts as he thinks proper and to propagate or
disseminate his ideas for the edification of other. It is the propagation of
belief that is protected no matter whether the propagation takes place in a
church, or monastery or in a temple or parlour meeting. At page 1023 (of SCR):
(at p. 290 of AIR) it was held that the word "religion" has not been
defined in the Constitution and it is a term which is hardly susceptible of any
rigid definition. Religion is certainly a matter of faith with individuals or
communities and it is not necessarily theistic. Religion undoubtedly has its
basis in a system of beliefs or doctrines which are regarded by those who
profess that religion conducive to their spiritual well being.

REVISION UNDER SECTION 397 OF THE CODE OF CRIMINAL PROCEDURE, 1974.
Being aggreived by the
Judgement and Order dated 19.11.2005 passed by the Learned Court of Judicial Magistrate, First
Class, P. O.- Mr. Sagar, in Criminal
Case No. 300 / 2005 in the matter of the state of Madhya Pradesh v/s Ajeet
Prakash & Ors.the applicants named above most humbly and respectfully beg
to prefer this revision petition on following facts and grounds amongest the
others:
FACTS OF THE CASE
1. The applicants are the husband, parents-in-law and
sisters-in-law of the complainant Mrs. Vijaya Shrivastava. The gist of the
allegation of the complainant, Mrs. Vijaya Shrivastava is that on account of
dowry demands, she had been mal-treated and humiliated not only in the house of
the in-laws at Jabalpur but as a consequence of such events, the husband of the
complainant had also demanded dowry at Kolkata and had also assaulted her.
2. The applicants contended before the learned Judicial
Magistrate, First Class, Sagar that the criminal case was not maintainable
before the said learned Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Sagar because the
cause of action took place only at Jabalpur and Kolkata which was outside the
territorial jurisdiction of the learned Magistrate at Sagar. A prayer was also
made to quash the summons issued by the learned Judicial Magistrate, First
Class, Sagar.
3. The applicants have submitted that it will be evident from the
FIR that the complainant has alleged that she had been subjected to cruel
treatment persistently at Jabalpur and also at Kolkata and incident taking
place at Sagar is not an isolated event,
but consequential to the series of incidents taking place at Jabalpur.
"498A. Husband or
relative of husband of a woman subjecting her to cruelty. - Whoever, being the
husband or the relative of the husband of a woman, subjects such woman to
cruelty shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to
three years and shall also be liable to fine.
Explanation - For the
purposes of this section "cruelty" means :
(a) Any wilful conduct
which is of such a nature as is likely to drive the woman to commit suicide or
to cause grave injury or danger to life, limb or health (whether mental or
physical) of the woman or
(b) harassment of the
woman where such harassment is with a view to coercing her or any person
related to her to meet any unlawful demand for any property or valuable security
or is on account of failure by her or any person related to her to meet such
demand."
hence this revision
petition is on following grounds;
a. the impugned order, if
allowed to continue would ocsassion failure of justice
b. the learned trial court
failed to exercise power vested under the leaw.
c. the impungned is
perverse, malafide, not sustainble in law.
d. the learned trial erred
in not only on the point of facts but on the point of Law.
e. the lerned trial Court
did not consided the material facts availabel on the record. even the avrements
made in the objection have not been dealt in their proper perspective.
PRYER
It is therefore most
humbly and respectfully prayed that the impugned Judgement and Order dated
19.11.2005 passed by the Learned Court
of Judicial Magistrate, First Class, P. O.- Mr. Sagar, in Criminal Case No. 300 / 2005 in the matter of the
state of Madhya Pradesh v/s Ajeet Prakash & Ors. may kindly be quashed in
the larger interst of justice with costs throughout.

Integrated
Child Development Services (ICDS) Scheme
Launched on 2nd October 1975, today, ICDS
Scheme represents one of the world's largest and most unique programmes for
early childhood development. ICDS is the foremost symbol of India's commitment
to her children – India's response to the challenge of providing pre-school
education on one hand and breaking the vicious cycle of malnutrition,
morbidity, reduced learning capacity and mortality, on the other.
Objectives
The Integrated Child Development Services
(ICDS) Scheme was launched in 1975 with the following objectives:
(i)to improve the nutritional and health
status of children in the age-group 0-6 years
(ii) to lay the foundation for
proper psychological, physical and social development of the child
(iii) to reduce the incidence
of mortality, morbidity, malnutrition and school dropout
(iv) to achieve effective
co-ordination of policy and implementation amongst the various departments to
promote child development
(v) to enhance the capability
of the mother to look after the normal health and nutritional needs of the
child through proper nutrition and health education.
Services
The above objectives are sought to be
achieved through a package of services comprising
(i) supplementary nutrition.
(ii) immunization.
(iii) health check-up .
(iv) referral services.
(v) pre-school non-formal education
and .
(vi) nutrition & health
education.
The concept of providing a package of
services is based primarily on the consideration that the overall impact will
be much larger if the different services develop in an integrated manner as the
efficacy of a particular service depends upon the support it receives from
related services.
2. A declaration that
no proceeding on the same subject matter has been previously instituted in any
Court, Authority or Tribunal, if instituted, the Status or result thereof,
along with copy of the Order:
Petitioner
declares that no proceeding on the same subject matter has been previously

marked as Annexure P-12. Thereafter the petitioner was removed from the service by
using capricious, colorable exercise of power and arbitrarily. Hence this
petition on following grounds amongst the others
6. Grounds urged :
A. For that, The
issue as raised herein as to whether the petitioner, a anganwadi worker, has a
right to serve beyond 60 years of age, is no more res-integra and has been
settled at rest by the decision in W. P. No. 13320 of 2009(s) (Smt. Santosh Dubey v. State of Madhya
Pradesh and others) and bunch of petitions by order dated 04-03-2010
wherein it was held :-
"13.
The Ministry of Woman and Child Development Department of the State Government
issued instructions on 27.5.2006 which lays down therein the service conditions
of the Anganwadi Workers and Sahayika. The circular issued on 27.5.2006 was in
supersession of the earlier instructions issued on 29.1.2001, 2.3.2002,
27.5.1996 and 12.9.2002. Under the said instructions the State Government laid
down the criteria for appointment of Anganwadi Worker/Sahayika, preference for
their appointment, procedure for selection and appointment, procedure for their
removal on the post of Anganwadi Worker/Sahayika. Clause B-5 deals with removal
of Anganwadi Sahayika. As per clause-D, the services of Anganwadi Worker/
Sahayika will be terminated on their attaining the age of 60 years after giving
one month's notice to them by the Project Officer. As per ICDS Scheme which
deals with the functions and responsibilities and its implementation was left
to the State Government and the State Government in pursuance thereto issue
instructions and, therefore, it cannot be said that the State Government is not
competent to remove them on their attaining the age of 60 years. As per the
said instructions/policy, the services of the petitioners can be discontinued
after their attaining the age of 60 years. The said instructions was also
superseded by the Ministry of Woman and Child Development Department of
Government of Madhya Pradesh by its instruction dated 10.7.2007. As per
instructions dated 10.7.2007, the services of Anganwadi Worker/Sahayika shall
be discontinued on attaining the age of 60 years.
B. For that, The circular dated 27.8.2003 was issued by the
Directorate of Woman and Child Development as at the relevant time the State
Government did not fix the maximum age of remaining in the job for Anganwadi
Worker/Sahayika. The aforesaid order merely conveys that Anganwadi
Worker/Sahayika can function even beyond the age of 58 years subject to
assessment of their physical efficiency and, therefore, all the petitioners and
other similarly situated Anganwadi Workers/Sahayika were allowed to function
beyond the age of 58 years. Thereafter, the State Government issued a policy
dated 27.5.2006 and 10.7.2007, wherein it is very specifically stipulated that
the Anganwadi Worker and Sahayika shall be automatically discontinued on
attaining the age of 60 years.
C. For that, The posts of Anganwadi Workers are not statutory
posts. They have been created in terms of the scheme. It is one thing to say
that there exists a relationship of employer and employee by and between the
State and Anganwadi Workers but it is another thing to say that they are
holders of civil posts.
D. For that, As per circular dated 10.7.2007 issued by the
State Government, retirement age of Anganwadi Workers (AWWs) and Anganwadi
Helpers is 60 years. They being honorary workers, are paid monthly honorarium
decided by the Government from time to time. The guidelines/policy framed by
the State Government which authorized the State Government to appoint them and
take disciplinary action and also terminate their services are applicable to
them and it cannot be said that they cannot be retired after completing the age
of 60 years without any appraisal to their efficiency as required by the
instructions of Government of India dated 15.6.1988.
E. For that, The association of the petitioner also
challenged the action of respondents by filing W.P. No. 10888/2009(PIL)
(Anganwadi Karyakarta Avam Sahayika Akta Union vs. State of M.P. and others) in
which this court rejected the prayer of interim relief and observed that in
case of success the members of the petitioner's union shall be entitled to all
consequential benefits.
7. Relief Prayed for :
(a)
That the Hon’ble High court shall be
pleased to call for the entire original record of lis for its kind perusal.
(b)
That the Hon’ble High Court shall be
pleased to issue suitable writ or direction to the respondent authorities to re-instate
back the petitioner with all consequential benefits.
(c)
Cost of this petition be also awarded in
favour of the petitioner.
Any other relief deemed fit and proper looking to the facts
and circumstances of the case may also be granted.
8.
Interim Order / Writ, if prayed for :
In view
of the facts and circumstance of the case during pendency of instant writ
petition the respondent authorities be directed to maintain status quo in
respect of services of petitioner, in the larger interest of justice.
9.
Documents relied on but not in
possession of the petitioner :
All the relevant material and original records in relation
to subject matter in dispute is lying with respondent authorities which my
kindly be requisitioned by the Hon’ble High Court for its kind perusal.
10.
Caveat :
That, no
notice of lodging a caveat by the opposite party is received.
