'Thappad khaega ya jail me jakar chakki peesega': Judge's son sparks uproar after car towed in Lucknow', WATCH

-

An uproar unfolded on the high streets of Lucknow’s Hazratganj area as the son of a judge caused serious nuisance following the towing of his car from a no-parking zone.

As per reports, it all started when law enforcement officials, noticing a car in violation of parking regulations on a Saturday, took to the loudspeaker to announce the vehicle’s license plate, UP 14 BY 2615, and called for the owner’s attention.

Despite a two-minute announcement, no one emerged to claim the car. As a result, the police decided to employ a crane to remove the car. Just five minutes later, the judge’s son arrived on the scene only to find his car missing. Inquiring around, he learned that the Municipal Corporation had impounded the vehicle.

Identifying himself as the judge’s son, he approached the police officers and demanded the immediate release of his car. However, his demand was met with a requirement to pay a fine of Rs 1,100.

This triggered an outburst from him, right there in the middle of the road. The situation escalated as he openly hurled abuses at the police officers and threatened them with physical harm.

Accompanied by his mother, he questioned the police about their authority to tow a car displaying the district judge’s designation.

He threatened to slap them and use his influence to make their lives difficult. One of the officers responded, insisting that he would need to communicate with their superior officer to have the car released.

This exchange of heated words continued, with the judge’s son becoming increasingly agitated. He challenged the police, questioning their actions and demanding an immediate explanation for the car’s towing.

He argued that other vehicles were also parked in the restricted zone and asked why his car had been singled out.

The matter was eventually escalated to the Joint Commissioner of Police (JCP), who reached out to the judge’s wife.

After a conversation over the phone, the judge’s wife agreed to pay the fine, amounting to Rs. 1100, for violating the parking rules. Subsequently, the police released the impounded car.

The incident is not an isolated incident. Earlier, the traffic police towed the car of Tourism and Culture Minister Jaiveer Singh for parking in a no parking zone on Vidhansabha Marg, issuing a Rs 1100 challan.

Similarly, a recent confrontation involving two young individuals who resisted paying a fine after their car was towed highlights the ongoing tension between the police and vehicle owners who violate parking regulations.

Both COVID-19 vaccine doses needed for good protection against B16172 variant

-
It’s been a concerning few weeks in the UK, with the B16172 variant first taking hold and then spreading to become dominant. This more infectious form of the virus, initially identified in India, is what we’re now going to have to live with – unless it is out-competed by another variant in the future. Worryingly, experts had predicted that B16172 might be able to escape some of the effects of vaccines, which if true would threaten to derail the UK’s plans to finish lifting restrictions from the end of June. However, Public Health England (PHE) has looked at the ability of various variants to evade immunity and says that the UK’s vaccines remain effective against the variants circulating, including B16172. On the surface, this looks like good news. But delve a bit deeper, and things get more complicated, says Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia. PHE’s research found a little drop-off in protection against B16172 among people who were fully vaccinated.

New coronavirus variant emerge in India: How should our COVID response change?

-

After genome sequencing of over 10,000 COVID-19 cases in India, researchers have discovered a new variant with two new mutations which may be better at evading the immune system. In 15-20 percent of samples from the Indian state of Maharashtra (the state accounting for 62 percent of cases in the country) a new, double mutation in key areas of the virus has been detected. These are now known as the E484Q and L452R mutations. What makes the variant different? Both these mutations are concerning because they are located in a key portion of the virus – the spike protein – that it uses to penetrate human cells. Spike proteins attach via a “receptor binding domain”, meaning the virus can attach to receptors in our cells. These new mutations include changes to the spike protein that make it a “better fit” for human cells. This means the virus can gain entry more easily and multiply faster. Given what we have seen with other similar mutations , it might also make it harder for our immu
