A | New Delhi, Oct 18 (UNI) A day after the Gujarat government justified its stand that Bilkis Bano's 11 convicts remission was correc, lawyer Kapil Sibal on Tuesday told the Supreme Court that all the 11 should be sent to jail.
"They should be inside" the jail, in my opinion," Sibal, appearing for petitioners Subhashini Ali and others told a two-judge Bench headed by Justice Ajay Rastogi and also comprising Justice C T Ravikumar.
The Supreme Court granted time to the petitioners to file their responses to the Gujarat government's affidavit filed on Monday. The Supreme Court fixed the next date of hearing as November 29.
The Gujarat government in its detailed affidavit filed said that third party strangers have no locus to challenge remission orders passed by competent authority strictly as per law.
"It is pertinent to note that the petitioner, (Subhashini Ali) who is admittedly a political functionary, has not even pleaded that how she has the locus to seek for quashing the order of remission passed by Respondent no 1 (Gujarat government) with respect to the 11 convicts sentenced by the Special Judge, Greater Mumbai," the Gujarat government said.
Questioning the maintainability of the batch of pleas challenging the release of 11 convicts in Bilkis Bano case, the Gujarat government argued that the petitioner has nowhere pleaded as to how her fundamental rights have been abridged.
The state government has considered the cases of all 11 prisoners as per the policy of 1992 and remission was granted on August 10, 2022, it said.
The Supreme Court was hearing the petitions filed by CPI (M) MP Subhasini Ali, journalist Revati Laul and Prof Roop Rekha Verma challenging the Gujarat government’s decision to grant remission to the 11 for killing 14 persons and sexually assaulting pregnant Bilkis Bano during the 2002 riots.
UNI SM MR。 Dhaka, Oct 11 (UNI) China wants to implement the Teesta master plan. Chinese Ambassador Li Ziming visited the Teesta Barrage and said this on Sunday.
On October 10, Ambassador Li Jiming called on Mr. Md. Sabirul Islam, Divisional Commissioner of Rangpur, and Mr. Md. Asif Ahasan, Deputy Commissioner of Rangpur District. Ambassador Li also met with local officials and engineers of Bangladesh Water Development Board.
China wants to lend a billion dollars to this project as a sponsor. China will implement the Teesta Master Plan through its people with loans. This project will include river mining, char mining, construction of satellite cities on both sides, solar power projects, naval terminals and many other things.
But experts say the project will be a white elephant with Chinese loan money. Bangladesh will get stuck in the net of Chinese debt. The way China trapped Sri Lanka, Pakistan in debt net.
International water expert, Lock Haven University professor Dr. Md. Khalekuzzaman has been calling this project ambitious and anti-nature since the beginning. He thinks that if this project is implemented, more terrible disaster will occur in the northern region including Tistapar.
Experts say, canceling the claim of fair share of Teesta river water with India, if this master plan is taken internally, India's unilateral control over Teesta will be recognized. India will no longer want to give water. It would be a suicidal decision.
China's debt trap on the other hand gives India control of the Teesta. A powerful syndicate wants to collect China's debt to Bangladesh. What could be the reason, everyone more or less knows what happens in projects in the name of river dredging.
Bangladeshi media personality Shankar Maitra told UNI, “This project needs more thought and research by the country's scientists and experts. One must also wonder why China has stepped up to give loans to the unprofitable sector. We also know what happens in the name of river mining, how corruption happens in the name of protecting dams”.
He said, "I think India must give its fair share of Teesta water to Bangladesh. This demand cannot be withdrawn".
Dhaka University Professor Major Nazmul Ahsan Kalimullah said, India is in great danger. The chicken neck in the Seven Sisters issue may be out of India's hands.
He said, "India has brought its own danger.
As a result of the tug of war between the Central Government of India and the provincial governments on the Teesta issue, Bangladesh has also withdrawn from the Teesta, while China has missed this opportunity. Bangladesh has waited for a long time.
He said, "We do not digest water?" Is our production stopped? Our hilsa fish production has collapsed? Certainly not.
