Former MLA Mahendra Yadav, Convicted for Sikh riots, Dies of Corona, Bail Plea Rejected Three Days Ago

Former MLA Mahendra Singh Yadav, convicted of 1984 Sikh Riots in Delhi and Mahendra Singh Yadav, has died of Coronavirus. The 70-year-old Yadav was serving a 10-year sentence in Delhi's Mandoli jail.

On 1^st July, the Supreme Court (SC) refused to grant bail to former MLA Mahendra Yadav. Yadav had sought interim bail from the Supreme Court on the grounds of being Covid-19 positive and older.

Supreme Court refuses to listen

Mahendra Singh Yadav has been sentenced to ten years in the case. The Supreme Court had said that we cannot hear this petition without any complaint or charge on treatment. The relatives of a patient are not allowed to go to the hospital.

'Family has no complaints about treatment'

The court said that this is a general rule and an order to the contrary cannot be issued. Justice Indira Banerjee, while hearing in the case, said that every effort is being made to treat the petitioner. Her family has no complaints related to treatment. There is no other specific suggestion of the family that they would like to take.

Admitted after complaining of stomach ache

Significantly, in the 1984 anti-Sikh violence case, former MLA Mahendra Yadav, who was lodged in Mandoli jail, was found corona infected. He was admitted to the Deendayal Upadhyay Hospital by the jail administration after complaining of stomach ache. When he was tested for Kovid-19 in the hospital, the report came back positive. He was referred to the Lok Nayak Hospital (LNJP) when his condition deteriorated.

                     DSGMC : Dil Se Sewa

Citizens from all across the country have been selflessly feeding the hungry, helping to tide over the crisis due to the Covid-19 pandemic. For some, sewa in such times is a shining example of community spirit.

 Mr. RAJU CHADHA,PHILANTHROPIST AND CHAIRMAN, WAVE GROUP

A unique initiative, ‘Dil Se Sewa: Feeding Millions’, along with NDTV and in partnership with the Delhi Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee, is being presented by philanthropist, film presenter and chairman of the Wave Group, Raju Chadha. Under the initiative, celebrities and achievers from various fields will motivate other citizens to join the campaign and help it to reach out to the poor and vulnerable, who need to be provided food.

“The langar concept was an innovative charity and symbol of equality introduced by the founder of Sikhism, Guru Nanak Devji. Hence, the roots of such community kitchens and feeding the hungry and needy is very old in our Sikh traditions. Serving humanity in a selfless manner is the hallmark of the langar sewa, something that each one of us should imbibe. Especially in these trying times when such a large part of the population worldwide is facing the heat of the Covid-19 pandemic,” says Chadha, who has pioneered several community initiatives and has been applauded for ushering in reforms in Sikh weddings by making them simple and lowcost in the past.

He further adds, “I appeal to everyone to come out and make a difference with your help and donations. Your greatness does not lie in what you have, it’s in what you give.”

A special show on the fundraising initiative, the significance of langar sewa and how it serves humanity, will be telecast today on NDTV at 7pm.

I appeal to everyone to come out and make a difference with your help and donations. Your greatness does not lie in what you have, it’s in what you give.

Mr.Harpinder Singh Rocky: Describing the country as paramount, Sikh businessman canceled orders for 5 million Chinese goods

      SCCI felicitates Jamshedpur industrialist Mr.Harpinder Singh Rocky

After the action of Chinese soldiers in Galvan Valley, anger against China in the country is increasing. The government of India has given a big blow to China by banning 59 Chinese apps. At the same time, traders have also opened a front against China. Constant sugar products are being boycotted.

An entrepreneur from Jamshedpur in Jharkhand has canceled the order of 5 crores given to China, keeping the love of the country ahead. This businessman named Harpinder Singh Rocky said that the country will never tolerate what China has experienced on the border, it is necessary to teach China a lesson.

Actually Harpinder Singh works to build the body of a bus in Jamshedpur. Apart from this, he is building a 5 star hotel, for which furniture and tiles were being sourced from China. In this connection, Harpinder Singh went to China in October last year, and came by ordering furniture and tiles worth Rs 5 crore. For this, he had also made an advance payment of 70 lakh rupees.

Meanwhile, now Chinese companies contacted Harpinder Singh, and said that your order is ready, you make the rest payment, after which the order will be dispatched from here. But now that tensions with China have increased on the border, everyone is angry with the actions of China, so Harpinder Singh also canceled the order.

He said that there is nothing better than patriotism. The 70 lakh rupees given in advance is not a concern. According to Harpinder Singh, now he will install the Make in India product in his hotel, so that local industries can be encouraged. He said that the country is first, then there is business. To teach China a lesson, self-sufficient India has to come true.
