WASHINGTON: Six US lawmakers
along with leading advocacy groups
have welcomed the inclusion of Sikh,
Hindu, and Arab American
communities in the Department of
Justice's hate crimes tracking effort
.
This is the final step in the long-
fought effort to encourage the US
federal government to finally begin
tracking and quantifying hate crimes
against these at-risk communities,
the lawmakers said at an event on
Capitol Hill Wednesday.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation
(FBI) recently updated its hate
crimes database and FBI training
manual in order to start tracking
hate crimes committed against these
groups — that system is now fully
operational.

NEW DELHI: Terming pollution in
Delhi as "terrible" and "out of
control", the high court on
Wednesday demanded a detailed
action plan from the state
government and the Delhi Pollution
Control Committee (DPCC).
"We too are victims of air pollution
in Delhi," a Division Bench of
Justices B D Ahmed and Sanjeev
Sachdeva said, specifically referring
to the high levels of particulate
matter, benzene, sulphur dioxide
(SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and
carbon monoxide (CO) "as culprits".
It noted that "air pollution here is
clearly visible" and referred to the
abnormally high levels of certain
pollutants in Civil Lines and the IGI
airport zone.

Anupam Kher has always been vocal
about his dislike for Vishal
Bharadwaj's Haider and the manner
in which he felt that the filmmaker
skirted the issue of Kashmiri Pandits
in the film. However, when the
director was awarded the National
Award in five categories and
dedicated the awards to the
Kashmiri pandit genocide, Anupam
Kher took to Twitter to express his
dislike. He wrote, "While I
congratulate Vishal Bhardwaj for
National Awards but dedicating
them to #KashmiriPandits genocide
is such a fraudish thing to do. When
was last time Vishal Bhardwaj spoke
about d plight of #KashmiriPandits?
He in fact humiliated us by doing
dance of devil at our temple. The so
called 'Hindu' centric Govt. gave
Haider 5 National Awards which
many felt was anti-Hindu & anti
Indian Army.
