A Hyderabad court has sentenced five Nepali nationals to seven days in jail after they were convicted in a woman harassment case that triggered widespread outrage online. The incident occurred near the Nizam College PG Hostel area when a woman alleged that one of the accused passed inappropriate remarks and attempted to grab her arm while she was travelling with her husband. After she raised an alarm, locals rushed to the spot, confronted the accused, and allegedly thrashed them before handing them over to police.

A massive demolition drive in Mumbai’s Garib Nagar near Bandra station has sparked chaos, outrage and violent clashes as hundreds of shanties are being razed for the Western Railway’s Bandra Terminus expansion project. Authorities say the operation is necessary to increase the station’s operational capacity, but residents claim the drive has turned into a humanitarian crisis. The demolition began after a Bombay High Court order and has already led to the arrest of 19 people following clashes between locals and authorities. Around 500 structures are being cleared as part of the railway redevelopment project.
