Policeman shot dead in Bihar's Muzaffarpur

Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary on Thursday attended a blood donation camp organised by the BJP Yuva Morcha in Patna on the occasion of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's birthday as part of the 'Seva Sankalp Abhiyan'.

"We have come to the Nizamuddin Dargah, which is a very special place; today also happens to be the birthday of our country's Prime Minister, Modi-ji. We often come here to offer prayers, and today, we all prayed together for his long life and good health," Rijiju said.

"You must have noticed that over 45 lakh people in Bihar are suffering due to devastating floods; they have no food or clean water, and lives are being lost. Yet the government has made no proper arrangements for them. Instead, on the Prime Minister's birthday, a staggering 100 crore rupees, drawn from the state's already depleted treasury, is being squandered merely on lighting lamps," Yadav told reporters.

A Delhi court on Thursday directed the Cyber Police Station, New Delhi, to register an FIR against journalist Karishma Aziz over alleged derogatory posts and videos on social media platform X targeting Hindu religious figures, historical personalities and India.

Bollarum Police have registered a case against Mahesh, Public Relations Officer (PRO) to Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) Working President KT Rama Rao, for allegedly obstructing and assaulting police officers performing preventive law and order duties.
