&lt;br /&gt;
== Controversy ==&lt;br /&gt;
On 17 December 2022, a special court in Pilibhit sentenced Sanjay Singh Gangwar to three months in jail for election code violations dating back to the [[2012 Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly election|2012 assembly elections]]. Gangwar, a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) legislator from Pilibhit and former member of the [[Bahujan Samaj Party|Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP)]], was fined Rs 2,000 for each of two cases. This conviction makes him the second minister in the Yogi 2.0 government to be found guilty. The court found Gangwar guilty under Section 127-A of the Representation of People’s Act, which prohibits the printing or publishing of election materials without proper identification of the printer or publisher. The cases stem from January 2012, when campaign materials were found in Pilibhit without the required information. Despite the conviction, the court granted Gangwar interim bail for 30 days, allowing him time to appeal under Section 389 (3) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Salaria |first=Shikha |date=2022-12-18 |title=&#039;Guilty&#039; of poll code violations, UP&#039;s Sanjay Gangwar is 2nd minister in Yogi 2.0 to face conviction |url=https://theprint.in/politics/guilty-of-poll-code-violations-ups-sanjay-gangwar-is-2nd-minister-in-yogi-2-0-to-face-conviction/1270285/ |access-date=2024-10-13 |website=ThePrint |language=en-US}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Singh made controversial claims, stating that cleaning and lying in cowsheds can cure [[cancer]], and interacting with [[Cattle|cows]] can significantly reduce blood pressure. During the inauguration of a cow shelter in his [[Pilibhit Assembly constituency|Pilibhit]] constituency, he said that petting cows could reduce a blood pressure patient’s medication dosage by half within 10 days. He also urged people to celebrate occasions like marriage anniversaries and children’s birthdays in cow shelters, encouraging them to donate fodder as well. Singh further claimed that lighting cow dung cakes could provide relief from mosquitoes.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=&amp;quot;Cancer Can Be Cured By Cleaning Cowshed, Lying There&amp;quot;: UP Minister |url=https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/cancer-can-be-cured-by-cleaning-cowshed-lying-there-uttar-pradesh-minister-sanjay-singh-gangwar-6781159 |access-date=2024-10-13 |website=NDTV.com}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news |last=Sharma |first=Gaurav |date=13 October 2024 |title=UP Minister Sanjay Gangwar&#039;s Bizarre Remark, Says Cancer Can Be Cured By Cleaning Cowshed |url=https://www.oneindia.com/india/up-minister-sanjay-gangwar-bizzare-remark-says-cancer-can-be-cured-by-cleaning-cowshed-3959517.html |access-date=14 October 2024 |work=oneindia}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Feringheea&#039;&#039;&#039;, also &#039;&#039;&#039;Feringeea&#039;&#039;&#039;, was a &#039;&#039;[[thuggee]]&#039;&#039; gang leader who was captured in 1830 and subsequently became [[William Henry Sleeman]]&#039;s most valuable approver (the period term for [[informant]]) during the British anti-thuggee campaign of the 1830s.{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=61}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Feringheea became famous after he was featured as the fictional chief of the Thugs in the 1844–1845 [[Serial (literature)|serial novel]] &#039;&#039;[[Le Juif errant]]&#039;&#039;, and later appeared as the main character in the 1877 novel &#039;&#039;Le Procès des Thugs&#039;&#039;.{{sfn|Van Woerkens|2002|p=273}} The &#039;&#039;[[Independent on Sunday]]&#039;&#039; described him as &amp;quot;the [[Errol Flynn]] of Thugdom&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Dash|2005|loc=blurbs}}&lt;br /&gt;

Feringheea was born into a [[Brahmin]] family in the village of Murnae, part of the [[House of Scindia|Scindia-ruled]] [[Gwalior State]].{{sfn|Wagner|2007|pp=96,107}}{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=82}} His grandfather and uncle are present in a 1797 tax list of &#039;&#039;[[Thuggee|thugs]]&#039;&#039; prepared for [[Maharaja]] [[Daulat Rao Sindhia|Daulat Rao Scindia]], with his grandfather listed as the father of five heads of families.{{sfn|Wagner|2007|pp=95,107}} Feringheea himself later claimed be a seventh-generation thug.{{sfn|Wagner|2007|p=107}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[oral history]] of his birth held that he had been born during his family&#039;s flight from Murnae after General [[Pierre Cuillier-Perron|Pierre Perron]] sent a regiment to force his uncle to pay back a debt to the state of Rs 18,000.{{sfn|Wagner|2007|pp=96-97}}{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=82}} He was therein purpotedly named Feringheea after those leading the attack, &#039;&#039;feringhee&#039;&#039; meaning &#039;foreigners&#039; or &#039;[[European people|European]]s&#039;.{{sfn|Wagner|2007|p=97}}{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=82}} Another version held that the village was attacked by Colonel [[Benoît de Boigne]] because the local &#039;&#039;[[zamindar]]s&#039;&#039; were rebelling against Scindia rule.{{sfn|Wagner|2007|p=97}} [[Kim A. Wagner]] finds it plausible that the village was attacked as part of a campaign commanded by Perron against a rebellion based in the fortress of [[Seondha]], as sources also mention a Captain Bellasis who may have been the &#039;Captain Bulust&#039; mentioned in one account.{{sfn|Wagner|2007|p=97}} Feringheea&#039;s family lived in Murnae until 1812, when it was razed in retribution for the killing of a British officer during an expedition to introduce British law into the area.{{sfn|Wagner|2007|pp=73-74,107,175-176}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Feringheea joined a band of 150 men for his first thuggee expedition to [[Kota, Rajasthan|Kota]] in 1813, where he may have aided in deceiving his first victim.{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=88}} He was present at the killing of a party of treasure bearers near the village of Sujaina in 1814, which netted the 40 thugs Rs 4,500.{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=90}} Feringheea thereafter abandoned thuggee and sought service in the [[Presidency armies|army of the East India Company]].{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=90}}{{efn|He claimed that this was because of a falling out with his cousin, but [[Mike Dash]] surmises that it may have been because the roads had become more dangerous as a byproduct of the 1817–1819 [[Third Anglo-Maratha War]].}} By 1821 he had risen to chief of the messenger service under [[British Resident]] at [[Delhi]] [[David Ochterlony]], though fled after his friend was caught with one of Ochterlony&#039;s [[maidservant]]s.{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=90}} Feringheea resumed his thuggee career, working with the gangs of [[Rajputana]] and [[Telangana]] as a &#039;&#039;[[jemadar]]&#039;&#039; (gang leader).{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=90}} In 1822, a gang under Feringheea was caught and had their faces blackened.{{sfn|Wagner|2007|p=204}} In the cold season of 1828–1829, Feringheea and his gang strangled 77 men and three women and he spent four months of 1829 imprisoned in Alumpore before escaping.{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=169}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Capture and collaboration ==&lt;br /&gt;
In December 1829, Feringheea&#039;s gang of 40 thugs was ambushed and the majority of them captured by Company &#039;&#039;[[sepoy]]s&#039;&#039; while he was in a village obtaining supplies, with only 12 managing to escape.{{sfn|Dash|2005|pp=176-177}} Seven of the captured thugs agreed to become approvers and, by January 1830, they had informed the British of Feringheea&#039;s identity, aliases, appearance, habits, and the location of his home in the village of Gorha, near [[Jhansi]].{{sfn|Dash|2005|pp=177-178}} A patrol of &#039;&#039;[[wiktionary:Nujeeb|nujeeb]]s&#039;&#039; ([[militiamen]] used by the [[Thuggee and Dacoity Department|Thuggee Department]] as pseudo-[[police detective]]s under [[William Henry Sleeman]]) attempted a midnight raid on Feringheea&#039;s cottage, however he managed to escape out the back.{{sfn|Dash|2005|pp=xvii,178-179}}&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite thesis|last=Lunt|first=Andrew Paul|date=2020|title=Crime, Mobility and State-Building in Western India, c. 1850 – 1920|work=PhD diss.|publisher=School of History, [[University of Leeds]]|pages=VII,77|url=https://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/id/eprint/29533/1/WREO_Lunt_AP_History_PhD_2020.pdf}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The nujeebs instead arrested the remaining occupants of the house, including his mother, wife, and child.{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=179}}{{sfn|Wagner|2007|p=211}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Feringheea returned to Gorha a few weeks later and formed a smaller gang, setting off in June or July.{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=182}} He was arrested near the [[Narmada River]] by the militia of a local &#039;&#039;[[Raja|rajah]]&#039;&#039;, upon which his gang abandoned him, but was able to secure his release after two days and joined another band of thugs near [[Sagar, Madhya Pradesh|Sagar]].{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=182}} The gang was shortly arrested by the local &#039;&#039;[[daroga]]&#039;&#039; on suspicion of robbery, though Feringheea was again able to secure his release and retired to [[Bundelkhand]].{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=182}} &lt;br /&gt;

By this point there was a Rs 500 reward on Feringheea and a group of Sleeman&#039;s nujeebs, escorted by approvers, tracked him down and arrested him in the village of Kisrae in November, taking him to Jhansi jail.{{sfn|Dash|2005|pp=183-184}} Upon receiving news of his capture, Sleeman travelled to Sagar to escort Feringheea back to [[Jubbulpore]] in person, which they reached in early December.{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=184}} Feringheea convinced Sleeman of his usefulness and was subsequently accepted as an approver.{{sfn|Dash|2005|pp=184-185}}{{sfn|Wagner|2007|pp=107-108}} To prove his reliability in January 1831, he provided the location for where 25 men had been buried over the past ten years in a spot outside the village of Salohda.{{sfn|Dash|2005|pp=185-186}} Feringheea became Sleeman&#039;s favourite approver and assisted investigations.{{sfn|Dash|2005|pp=187-188}} He was the most influential out of the roughly 100 thuggee approvers and his depositions feature more often in the Company&#039;s records than any other.{{sfn|Dash|2005|pp=187-188}}{{sfn|Wagner|2004|p=953}} After the arrest of 289 thugs following a sweep through the villages surrounding Jhansi, Feringheea identified 283 of them and provided details on most of their careers.{{sfn|Dash|2005|p=188}} Feringheea was returned to jail in 1832 and died in late 1855.{{sfn|Dash|2005|pp=272,279}}&lt;br /&gt;

== In popular fiction ==&lt;br /&gt;

In the 1844–1845 [[Serial (literature)|serial]] &#039;&#039;[[Le Juif errant]]&#039;&#039; (&#039;&#039;The Wandering Jew&#039;&#039;) by [[Eugène Sue]], Feringheea (spelled Feringhea in the novel) appears as the chief of the Thugs, who are  presented as products of the tyranny of [[Indian society]] and the exploitation of colonisers.{{sfn|Van Woerkens|2002|p=272}} Feringheea escapes India with three Thugs, planning to continue their activities in [[Java]] and all countries of oppression, misery, corruption, and slavery.{{sfn|Van Woerkens|2002|p=272}} &lt;br /&gt;

In the 1877 novel &#039;&#039;Le Procès des Thugs&#039;&#039; (&#039;&#039;The Trial of Thugs&#039;&#039;) by René de Pont-Jest [[:fr:René de Pont-Jest|{{small|[fr]}}]], Feringheea&#039;s name is given to the hero of the book, heavily inspired by &#039;&#039;[[Confessions of a Thug (novel)|Confessions of a Thug]]&#039;&#039;, and leader of the Thugs.{{sfn|Van Woerkens|2002|pp=273,277}} The book centres around a spectacular trial in [[Madras]] focused on the Thugs&#039; depravities, but which reveals the Thugs to be patriots against their British oppressors, later allying with the [[Fenians]].{{sfn|Van Woerkens|2002|pp=273-278}} The character of Feringheea testifies that he had been born in a marble palace with servants but had been kidnapped at a young age.{{sfn|Van Woerkens|2002|p=277}}&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:MAHOBA,_U.P._-_allha.preview.jpg | thumb | right | alt=Statue of Alha riding on a horse with one of his hands up and his horse galloping. | Statue of Alha riding on a horse]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Alha&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[ISO 15919|ISO]]: Ālhā) was a legendary general of the [[Chandela|Chandel]] king [[Paramardideva]] (also known as Parmal), who fought [[Prithviraj Chauhan]] in 1182 [[Common Era|CE]]. He is one of the main characters of the &#039;&#039;[[Alha-Khand]]&#039;&#039; ballad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Origin ==&lt;br /&gt;
According to the legend, Alha and [[Udal Mahoba|Udal]] were children of the Dasraj, a successful commander in the army of Chandel king Parmal. They belonged to the [[Banaphar]] clan, which are of mixed [[Ahir]] and [[Rajput]] descent,&amp;lt;!--Do not change without consensus! Go to the talk page first.--&amp;gt;{{sfn|Hiltebeitel|1999|loc=pp. 162–163: &amp;quot;Presumably it is an issue that would interest &#039;&#039;Ālhā&#039;&#039; audiences sensitive to the mixed-caste Kṣatrya-Ahir identity of the Banāphars... Ūdal (and the rest of the Banāphars) is susceptible to &amp;quot;mean caste&amp;quot; slurs and slights because of his combined Kṣatriya (Rajput) and cowherd (Ahir) background.&amp;quot;}}{{sfn|Hiltebeitel|2009|p=465}}{{sfn|Mayaram|2022|p=141}}{{sfn|Crowley|2020|pp=277}}{{sfn|Talbot|2016|p=203}} Purana states that Mahil a Rajput and an enemy of Alha and Udal said that Alha has come to be of a different family (kule htnatvamagatah) because his mother is an [[Aryan]] Ahir.{{sfn|Hiltebeitel|1999|p=133}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;[[Bhavishya Purana]]&#039;&#039;, a Sanskrit text, states that Alha&#039;s mother was called Devaki and was a member of the  Ahir caste. The Ahirs are among the &amp;quot;oldest pastoralists&amp;quot; and were rulers of Mahoba.{{sfn|Hiltebeitel|1999|loc=pp. 132–133}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Folklore ==&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to the &#039;&#039;Aalha Khand&#039;&#039; and the &#039;&#039;Bhavishya Purana&#039;&#039;, the story of Alha is also found in a number of medieval manuscripts of the &#039;&#039;[[Prithviraj Raso]]&#039;&#039;. There is also a belief that the story was originally written by Jagnik, bard of Mahoba, but no manuscript has been found.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Prabhakar Kashinath Kunte&#039;&#039;&#039;, (29 September 1922 &amp;amp;ndash; 15 August 2012)&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|title=Prabhakar Kashinath Kunte|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Prabhakar-Kashinath-Kunte/tributeshow/15546497.cms|access-date=18 October 2013|newspaper=Times of India}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;  was an Indian Freedom fighter and former Member of Legislator Assembly of Maharashtra. He was born at Alibag in 1920 and was a resident of Mumbai from 1939 till his death on 14 August 2012.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early life and family==&lt;br /&gt;
He was born in 1920, the son of Alibag lawyer [[Kashinath Vaman Kunte]] and Godavari Kashinath Kunte. He died in Mumbai on 14 August 2012. He was survived by his wife, Varsha Kunte (d. July 23, 2019). Prabhakar &amp;amp; Varsha Kunte had no children. He was the younger brother of [[Nanasaheb Kunte]] (Dattatraya Kashinath Kunte) (1908–1991), veteran freedom fighter, Speaker of the Bombay Legislative Assembly (1952–1956), and member of the [[4th Lok Sabha]] (1967–1971).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His early education was at [[Alibag]], Kulaba district (now Raigad). He matriculated with distinction in English, Sanskrit, and History in 1939.  His college education was at Bombay University.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Political activities==&lt;br /&gt;
Prabhakar Kunte he joined the Indian National Congress and was active in Quit India movement in 1942, and was imprisoned by British regime. He was a leading trade union leader and was elected to the Bombay Municipal corporation. He actively participated in the [[Samyukta Maharashtra]] agitation (1955–1960) and the liberation of Goa (1961).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the Congress splits of 1969 and 1978 he supported the faction led by Indira Gandhi, Congress-R and Congress-I respectively. In 1972, he was elected to the Maharashtra State Legislative Assembly in 1972 from the Dharavi constituency of Bombay.  Subsequently, he joined the ministry of [[Shankarrao Chavan]] as Minister of State for Housing. He subsequently narrowly lost the assembly election in 1978 from Dharavi. This seat was declared a &amp;quot;Reserved&amp;quot; constituency for the 1980 elections, so he shifted to Mahim where he was defeated by 5-time legislator, F.M. Pinto who contested as an Independent.  [http://www.timescontent.com/tss/showcase/preview-buy/124955/News/Sanjay-Gandhi-Prabhakar-Kunte.html P.K. Kunte was rumored to be one of Sanjay Gandhi&#039;s leading choices] to be an &amp;quot;outsider&amp;quot; candidate for the Chief Ministership of Maharashtra, as part of his efforts to break up the monopoly of power then enjoyed by Western Maharashtra&#039;s sugar barons.  Ironically, the Gandhis chose another Kulaba (Raigad) native, [[Abdul Rehman Antulay]] for the position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to his ministerial position, {{YouTube|kKAcKAqmV9k|Kunte}} served as chairman, Bombay Housing Board (BMRDA), the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Board (MHADA) and the Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He also lost 1987 assembly election, this time from the Vile Parle seat in Mumbai, to Dr. Ramesh Y. Prabhoo of Shiv Sena. The formidable Shiv Sena founder and leader [[Bal Thackeray]] campaigned vigorously for Prabhoo on a Hindutva plank. Kunte filed a petition in the Bombay High Court, accusing Prabhoo of seeking votes on religious grounds and thereby indulging in electoral malpractices. Justice S P Bharucha of the high court declared Prabhoo&#039;s election void on 7 April 1989, for the commission of corrupt practices under Sections 123 (3) and 123 (3A) of the Representation of the People Act (RPA), 1951. However, Prabhoo served out his term in the legislature as the high court ruling was appealed to the Supreme Court of India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kunte was finally vindicated in 1996.  In a landmark judgment (1996) 1 SCC 130, the Supreme Court upheld the lower court&#039;s verdict.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl1606/16060420.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081006082434/http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl1606/16060420.htm|archive-date=2008-10-06 |title=Welcome to Frontline : Vol. 29 :: No. 16 |publisher=Hinduonnet.com |date= |url-status=usurped|access-date=2012-08-16}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.eci.gov.in/ElectoralLaws/Judgements/LandmarkJudgementsVolIII.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930041530/http://www.eci.gov.in/ElectoralLaws/Judgements/LandmarkJudgementsVolIII.pdf |archive-date=2007-09-30 |title=Landmark Judgements On Election Law |date= |access-date=2012-08-16}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and debarred Thackeray from contesting or voting in elections for a period of six years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Government of India however referred the matter to the Election Commission for its advice. The commission constituted a two-member bench comprising Chief Election Commissioner Manohar Singh Gill and Commissioner J M Lyngdoh to look into the matter. The bench sent its decision to the President on 22 September 1998.  After considering the various recommendations, [[President K R Narayanan]] finally decided to debar Thackeray on 17 July with retrospective effect from 11 December 1995.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A gazette notification to this effect was issued on 17 July 1999, after the commission&#039;s recommendation received President K R Narayanan&#039;s assent.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.rediff.com/news/1999/jul/28baal.htm |title=Rediff On The NeT: Bal Thackeray deprived of the right to vote |work=Rediff.com |date= |access-date=2012-08-16}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prabhakar Kunte devoted the last years of his life towards educational activities. He founded the Raigad Military School with {{YouTube|phszlPYPtQY|campuses}} in [[Mahad]] (Raigad District), and in Oshiwara, Mumbai.&lt;br /&gt;

The &#039;&#039;&#039;Stephen Court fire&#039;&#039;&#039; was a major fire in a historical building, Stephen Court, that occurred in March 2010 in [[Kolkata]], [[West Bengal]], India. The fire started by a short circuit in the [[Elevator|lifts]] at 2:15 p.m. [[Indian Standard Time|IST]], rapidly engulfing the fifth and sixth floors. A delay in the start of rescue operations was experienced due to the inadequate planning and preparedness of the fire-service department. Many occupants of the building were forced onto narrow ledges on the sides of the building. 43 people died in the fire. More than 300 firemen and 40 fire tenders were involved in bringing the blaze under control. Later a charge-sheet was prepared by the police which held the directors and caretakers responsible for the mishap. A probe by the government into this incident revealed that illegal construction of two floors and the lack of adequate fire-fighting equipment were major factors that contributed to the blaze getting out of control. In 2016, the Stephen Court Welfare Association, an unregistered company, reconstructed the building.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Building==&lt;br /&gt;
Stephen Court is a seven-storey building located on plot 18{{nbsp}}A in the upscale neighbourhood of Park Street, Kolkata. It is over 150 years old and is listed as a Grade-II heritage building.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Dutta_Ananya_Hindu&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|last1=Dutta|first1=Ananya|title=Stephen Court fire toll rises to 43|url=http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/Stephen-Court-fire-toll-rises-to-43/article16627837.ece|website=[[The Hindu]]|access-date=24 January 2018|language=en-IN|date=29 March 2010|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180208064650/http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/Stephen-Court-fire-toll-rises-to-43/article16627837.ece|archive-date=8 February 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Original construction===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Arathoon Stephen]] (1861&amp;amp;nbsp;– 14 May 1927) was a member of the [[Armenians|Armenian]] community of Kolkata who spent huge amounts of money to help shape the economic growth of the city. He was also a [[shareholder]] and the first managing director of a company known as the Stephen Court Ltd. This company, apart from owning several other heritage structures in Kolkata, built a three-storey building on land leased by Peter Charles Earnest Paul and named it after himself. The building, Stephen Court, was used for both commercial and residential purposes as there were no laws differentiating them during those times.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;tgraph&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Illegal construction===&lt;br /&gt;
Around 1930, a fourth storey was added to the building without the necessary building permits, followed by two more in 1984. The civic authorities issued a notice of building code violation on the building&#039;s management authorities. In 1984, the illegally constructed floors were  regularised by the payment of a penalty. A mezzanine floor was also constructed between the ground floor and first floor, the date of construction of which is not known.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|title=Top two floors of Stephen Court were illegal: Police|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/india/east/story/top-two-floors-of-stephen-court-were-illegal-police-70075-2010-03-24|access-date=25 January 2018|work=[[India Today]]|date=24 March 2010|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180125193632/https://www.indiatoday.in/india/east/story/top-two-floors-of-stephen-court-were-illegal-police-70075-2010-03-24|archive-date=25 January 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fire clearance===&lt;br /&gt;
At the time of the construction and  regularisation of the two illegal floors, the civic laws of Kolkata required a fire clearance for any structure above the height of {{convert|18|m}}. After the  regularisation of the additional floors, the building did cross the {{convert|18|m|adj=on}} limit. Due to a loophole in the law, the authorities did not have to obtain fire clearance, as  regularised buildings were exempted.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;tgraph&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |url=https://www.telegraphindia.com/1100325/jsp/frontpage/story_12258933.jsp |title=Stephen Court, the history &amp;amp; the height |date=25 March 2010 |website=[[The Telegraph (Calcutta)|The Telegraph]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131127093635/http://www.telegraphindia.com/1100325/jsp/frontpage/story_12258933.jsp |archive-date=27 November 2013 |url-status=dead |access-date=23 January 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Overusage and maintenance===&lt;br /&gt;
Stephen Court was put to both commercial and residential usage. This put an additional strain on the aged wiring of the building.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Dna&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite news |url=http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-stephen-court-was-overloaded-ill-maintained-1363082 |title=Stephen Court was overloaded, ill-maintained |date=25 March 2010 |work=[[Daily News &amp;amp; Analysis]] |access-date=25 January 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180125195150/http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-stephen-court-was-overloaded-ill-maintained-1363082 |archive-date=25 January 2018 |url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fire==&lt;br /&gt;
At around 1:05 p.m. to 2:05 p.m. IST on 23 March 2010, a fire broke out at Stephen Court. Thought to be from a short circuit from a [[Elevator|lift]] in between the fifth and sixth floors, the fire spread upwards and sideways, engulfing the whole building in flames. The flames were hastened by the lack of any modern fire-fighting measures in the building. Those who were trapped by the flames went out onto the narrow parapets and ledges, waiting to be rescued. One woman reportedly slipped and fell five floors below; she succumbed to her injuries. Around 2:15 the fire service department received a call for help.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=Kolkata&#039;s Park Street fire: Death toll rises to 24|url=https://www.ndtv.com/cities/kolkatas-park-street-fire-death-toll-rises-to-24-413433|website=[[NDTV]]|access-date=24 January 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170712182238/http://www.ndtv.com/cities/kolkatas-park-street-fire-death-toll-rises-to-24-413433|archive-date=12 July 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Rescue operations===&lt;br /&gt;
Nearly 300 firemen and 40 fire tenders were deployed to bring the fire under control. Two [[Aerial work platform|Bronto skylifts]] were deployed to rescue people stuck on the upper floors.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/Six-killed-in-fire-on-Park-Street-in-Kolkata/articleshow/5715472.cms|title=Six killed in fire on Park Street in Kolkata |access-date=12 February 2018|website=[[The Times of India]]|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180313053224/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/Six-killed-in-fire-on-Park-Street-in-Kolkata/articleshow/5715472.cms?from=mdr|archive-date=13 March 2018}} [https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/Six-killed-in-fire-on-Park-Street-in-Kolkata/articleshow/5715472.cms?from=mdr Alt URL]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At first only two fire engines reached the spot from the nearby Free School Street fire station, but more were eventually requisitioned from more distant areas of the city such as [[Behala]] and [[Bidhannagar|Salt Lake]]. Meanwhile, people trapped inside the building attempted to escape using unstable ladders and ropes. Protesters gathered in front of the building demanding taller ladders to be used to rescue people trapped on the fifth and sixth floors. Two skylifts that had been stored in faraway parts of the city, were deployed after a certain delay due to traffic. Later, 10 more fire tenders also joined forces to tackle the blaze. The fire was eventually brought under control by 10:30 p.m. IST.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=Kolkata&#039;s Park Street fire: Death toll rises to 24|url=https://www.ndtv.com/cities/kolkatas-park-street-fire-death-toll-rises-to-24-413433|website=NDTV|access-date=24 January 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170712182238/http://www.ndtv.com/cities/kolkatas-park-street-fire-death-toll-rises-to-24-413433|archive-date=12 July 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Aftermath==&lt;br /&gt;
The firemen cleared out the building by going from door to door and checking for survivors, the injured and the dead. 43 people died in the blaze.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Dutta_Ananya_Hindu&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Around 20 people were injured.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/Six-killed-in-fire-on-Park-Street-in-Kolkata/articleshow/5715472.cms|title=Six killed in fire on Park Street in Kolkata|access-date=13 March 2018|date=23 March 2010|work=The Times of India|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180313100524/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/Six-killed-in-fire-on-Park-Street-in-Kolkata/articleshow/5715472.cms|archive-date=13 March 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; A [[First Information Report]] was filed against the caretaker of the building as he had refused to co-operate and help in the rescue operations. A charge sheet prepared by the police named the three directors of Stephen Court Ltd. and the two caretakers for the lack of maintenance of the building. The liftman, caretaker and assistant caretaker were immediately taken into custody, two of the directors surrendered and the third was subsequently arrested in [[Uttar Pradesh]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/lucknow/Kolkatas-Stephen-Court-fire-accused-arrested/articleshow/6428994.cms|title=Kolkata&#039;s Stephen Court fire accused arrested|website=The Times of India|date=25 August 2010|first1=Pervez Iqbal|last1=Siddiqui|access-date=12 February 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100828193233/http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/lucknow/Kolkatas-Stephen-Court-fire-accused-arrested/articleshow/6428994.cms|archive-date=28 August 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The government announced a probe of the incident. A forensic team confirmed that the blaze had been started by a short circuit.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Dna&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Further investigation revealed a lack of maintenance of the electrical circuitry leading to exposed live wires in the basement, which combined with the wooden main stairs made the building a tinderbox. This had aided the fire in getting out of control.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Dna&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; As portions of the fifth and sixth floor had crumbled during the fire, the [[Kolkata Municipal Corporation]] on the advice of the forensic team,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Dna&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; took the decision to demolish the top two storeys of the building but had to stop the operations after a section of the owners moved the high court.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.ndtv.com/cities/kolkata-fire-court-stops-demolition-of-stephen-court-413576?amp=1&amp;amp;akamai-rum=off|title=Kolkata fire: Court stops demolition of Stephen Court|website=NDTV|access-date=12 February 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180212142112/https://www.ndtv.com/cities/kolkata-fire-court-stops-demolition-of-stephen-court-413576?amp=1&amp;amp;akamai-rum=off|archive-date=12 February 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; A few residents were allowed to use the building weeks after the fire but had to sign personal risk bonds, absolving the civic authorities of any liability in case of injury for a period of six months. Moreover, the supply of electricity and of water to the building were cut off by the KMC citing the precarious condition of the building. Major parts of the building, including the lifts, were out of bounds for those residents.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Reconstruction===&lt;br /&gt;
In 2016, an unregistered association, the Stephen Court Welfare Association,  took the initiative of restoring the heritage building. By pooling a fund from the owners of the flats, they repaired the broken pillars, replaced the staircases, and renovated the soot-covered exterior. Care was taken to bring the building up to date with modern fire fighting techniques and equipment.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|title=Wait is over, Stephen Court resurrection enters last lap|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/Wait-is-over-Stephen-Court-resurrection-enters-last-lap/articleshow/55102756.cms|access-date=24 January 2018|work=The Times of India|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180125030752/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/Wait-is-over-Stephen-Court-resurrection-enters-last-lap/articleshow/55102756.cms|archive-date=25 January 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shivaji Tupe&#039;&#039;&#039; was an Indian artist from [[Nashik]]. He was known for his work in watercolor medium and sketches that illustrated the beauty of nature. He was more interested in portraying the scenic beauty of river banks such as Godavari Ghaats in Nashik and Gangaa Ghaats of [[Banaras]], over five decades.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/nashik/Renowned-artist-Shivaji-Tupe-dies-at-78/articleshow/21716980.cms|title=Renowned artist Shivaji Tupe dies at 78 - Times of India|website=[[Times of India]]}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early life and education==&lt;br /&gt;
Shivaji Tupe was born in the family with art background. He was born in a small village Sinnar in [[Nashik district]]. His interest in art was no surprise for his family. Tupe took the painting as passion, rather than just a profession.&lt;br /&gt;
He completed his formal education in arts from J.J. School of arts in Mumbai in 1957.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;jyotsnaprakashan.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://jyotsnaprakashan.com/authors/english/item/shivaji-tupe|title=Shivaji Tupe|website=jyotsnaprakashan.com|accessdate=22 June 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Work and achievements==&lt;br /&gt;
Shivaji Tupe is well known among the community for putting the aesthetics of Godaghaat on canvas. He fell in love with architecture of ancient temples such as Naroshankar temple, [[Kalaram Temple|kalaram temple]], Sundarnarayan temple etc.&lt;br /&gt;
His paintings mainly covered the holy culture of temples, Ghaat areas of Godavari and ‘Waada culture’ of Nashik. His work about life in the lanes of town and Waada culture is acclaimed by the art lovers.&lt;br /&gt;
Tupe roamed all across the country in the search of subjects and Ghaats. The Gangaa Ghaat of Banaras appealed him and he sketched the life of Banaras through his pen-ink medium. He always said that he travelled all across the country but the beauty of Nashik Ghaats captured his mind the most.&lt;br /&gt;
He was associated with Nashik Kala Niketan. He used to teach art there. Later, he was appointed as the secretary at Nashik Kala Niketan. Solo exhibitions of Tupe&#039;s paintings have been organized on many occasions. His art and love towards Godaghaats had earned him fame and a place of respect in art society, also recognition from entities like [[Lalit Kala Akademi]], the [[Bombay Art Society]] and [[Academy of Fine Arts, Kolkata]].  Among the many awards won by him, the K. R. Paranjape Gunjan Kala Puraskar is an important achievement.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/nashik/Renowned-artist-Shivaji-Tupe-dies-at-78/articleshow/21716980.cms|title=Renowned artist Shivaji Tupe dies at 78 - Times of India|publisher=|accessdate=22 June 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;jyotsnaprakashan.com&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Aurangzeb: The Man and the Myth&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; is a 2017 biography of Mughal emperor [[Aurangzeb]] by historian [[Audrey Truschke]]. The book was published by [[Penguin Random House]] in India and later by [[Stanford University Press]] in the [[United States]] under the title &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Aurangzeb: The Life and Legacy of India&#039;s Most Controversial King&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;. It aims to deconstruct popular myths about Aurangzeb and place his rule within a nuanced historical framework.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hindu-review&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news |last=Sundaram |first=Rama |title=Aurangzeb: A stranger no more |url=https://www.thehindu.com/books/books-reviews/aurangzeb-a-stranger-no-more/article17408332.ece |access-date=27 June 2025 |work=The Hindu |date=4 March 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Overview ==&lt;br /&gt;
The book challenges the  Hindutva narrative of Aurangzeb as a fanatical and intolerant ruler by examining Persian chronicles, royal [[firman]]s, and Mughal court histories. Truschke argues that Aurangzeb’s actions were often driven by political pragmatism rather than religious dogma, and that he continued many policies of his predecessors, including temple grants and employing Hindu officials.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web | last=Hashmi | first=Fahad | title=Book Review: Audrey Truschke&#039;s &#039;Aurangzeb: The Man And the Myth&#039; | website=Cafe Dissensus Everyday | date=21 November 2017 | url=https://cafedissensusblog.com/2017/11/21/book-review-audrey-truschkes-aurangzeb-the-man-and-the-myth/ | access-date=2 July 2025}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ie-review&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news |last=Jain |first=Saumya |title=Aurangzeb is a complex king, not a cartoon bigot |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/lifestyle/books/audrey-truschkes-aurangzeb-is-a-complex-king-not-a-cartoon-bigot-aurangzeb-the-man-and-the-myth-4616236/ |access-date=27 June 2025 |work=The Indian Express |date=22 April 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Among the key issues the book reconsiders are the reimposition of the &#039;&#039;[[jizya]]&#039;&#039; tax, temple demolitions, and conflicts with other religious communities. Truschke presents these within a broader Mughal imperial context, contending that Aurangzeb’s reign was more about statecraft than ideology.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last=Truschke |first=Audrey |title=Aurangzeb: The Life and Legacy of India&#039;s Most Controversial King |year=2017 |publisher=Stanford University Press |isbn=9781503602038}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It was named a Choice Outstanding Academic Title in 2017.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |url=https://www.sup.org/books/history/aurangzeb |title=Aurangzeb {{!}} Stanford University Press |date=2017-05-16 |isbn=978-1-5036-0257-1 |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Reception ==&lt;br /&gt;
Munis D. Faruqui, a historian of Mughal India, found the book to be an excellent work aimed at non-specialists, and praised Truschke&#039;s willingness to tackle the topic despite being aware about the inevitability of &amp;quot;vicious personal attacks from mostly nonacademic critics&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Faruqu&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=Faruqui |first=Munis D. |date=6 March 2019 |title=Aurangzeb: The Life and Legacy of India&#039;s Most Controversial King.

&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;&#039;Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act, 1936&#039;&#039;&#039; is a law enacted by the [[Imperial Legislative Council]] (under [[British Raj|British India]]) to regulate marriage and divorce among [[Parsis]]. The Act provides for the legal recognition, [[solemnization]], and dissolution of marriages within the Parsi community, along with provisions for custody, alimony, and other matrimonial matters. This law applies exclusively to Parsis, defined as individuals following the [[Zoroastrianism|Zoroastrian]] faith.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act, 1936 |url=https://www.indiacode.nic.in/bitstream/123456789/2476/1/a1936_____3.pdf}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Background ==&lt;br /&gt;
The need for a distinct legal framework arose due to the unique customs and practices of the Parsi community, which could not be effectively regulated by general marriage laws applicable to other religious groups in India. The Act sought to align with traditional Parsi norms while incorporating modern legal principles. It replaced earlier regulations governing Parsi marriages, consolidating them into a more comprehensive statute.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |date=2023-11-16 |title=Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act, 1936: A Comprehensive Guide |url=https://getlegalindia.com/parsi-marriage-and-divorce-a/#:~:text=The%20Parsi%20Marriage%20and%20Divorce%20Act%20of%201936,The%201936%20Act%20was%20further%20amended%20in%201988. |access-date=2024-10-19 |website=Getlegal India |language=en-IN}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The law has undergone several amendments since its inception to align with social changes and evolving perspectives on marriage, family rights, and gender equality.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Key Provisions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== 1. Solemnization of Marriage ===&lt;br /&gt;
A marriage between two Parsis must be solemnized by a Parsi priest (known as a mobed) and in the presence of at least two witnesses. The Act sets the minimum age for marriage at 21 years for males and 18 years for females. Both parties must give free consent, and marriages are declared void if consent is obtained through fraud or coercion.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Verma |first=Ayush |date=2023-06-10 |title=Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act of 1936 |url=https://blog.ipleaders.in/need-know-parsi-marriage-divorce-act-1936/ |access-date=2024-10-19 |website=iPleaders |language=en-US}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Aishwaryasandeep |date=2023-12-07 |title=An intricate understanding of the Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act, 1936 - Aishwarya Sandeep- Parenting and Law |url=https://aishwaryasandeep.in/an-intricate-understanding-of-the-parsi-marriage-and-divorce-act-1936/ |access-date=2024-10-19 |website=aishwaryasandeep.in |language=en-US}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== 2. Conditions for Validity of Marriage ===&lt;br /&gt;
Both parties to the marriage must be Parsis by religion at the time of the wedding. Neither party should have a living spouse ([[polygamy]] is prohibited). Marriages between certain degrees of prohibited relationships are void under the Act.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== 3. Registration of Marriage ===&lt;br /&gt;
Every Parsi marriage must be registered with the registrar appointed under the Act, and failure to do so can lead to penalties. A marriage certificate issued by the registrar serves as proof of the marriage.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== 4. Divorce and Judicial Separation ===&lt;br /&gt;
The Act provides several grounds on which either spouse can seek divorce or judicial separation, including:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Adultery]]&lt;br /&gt;
* Cruelty or inhumane treatment&lt;br /&gt;
* Desertion for at least two years&lt;br /&gt;
* Unsoundness of mind&lt;br /&gt;
* Conversion to another religion&lt;br /&gt;
* Mutual consent&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== 5. Special Divorce Provisions for Parsis ===&lt;br /&gt;
If a spouse does not cohabit for one year after being ordered to do so by the court, the other party can seek [[divorce]]. The Act emphasizes reconciliation efforts, requiring the court to make attempts to reunite the couple before finalizing divorce proceedings.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== 6. Custody, Alimony, and Maintenance ===&lt;br /&gt;
The courts can award custody of children based on the child’s welfare and interests. Permanent [[alimony]] or financial support can be granted to either spouse based on their financial status and needs. The Act empowers the court to revise alimony orders if the circumstances of the parties change.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== 7. Inheritance and Property Rights ===&lt;br /&gt;
Although the Act deals primarily with marriage and divorce, it intersects with Parsi personal laws governing inheritance and property, affecting the rights of spouses and children post-divorce or death.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Jurisdiction and Enforcement ==&lt;br /&gt;
The Act establishes special Parsi matrimonial courts in various regions of India to handle cases under this legislation. These courts have the authority to adjudicate disputes related to marriage, divorce, and maintenance. Appeals from these courts can be made to the High Court.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=More |first=Adv Hemant |date=2022-09-18 |title=Parsi Matrimonial Courts: Ss. 18-29 Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act |url=https://thelegalquotient.com/family-laws/parsi-laws/parsi-matrimonial-courts/430/ |access-date=2024-10-19 |website=The Legal Quotient |language=en-US}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Criticism and Reforms ==&lt;br /&gt;
While the Act has been appreciated for preserving the customs and traditions of the Parsi community, it has also faced criticism for some outdated provisions. Advocates of reform have argued that the law needs further amendments to ensure greater gender neutrality and quicker resolutions of matrimonial disputes. It was also criticized by Supreme court of India for using [[jury trial]]s, which has been outlawed in India since 1973.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2018-11-27 |title=Rights of Women: A Critical Study of the Jury System in Parsi Matrimonial Law |url=https://lawschoolpolicyreview.com/2018/11/27/rights-of-women-a-critical-study-of-the-jury-system-in-parsi-matrimonial-law/ |access-date=2024-10-19 |website=Law School Policy Review &amp;amp; Kautilya Society |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Krishnan |first=Murali |date=2017-12-01 |title=SC issues notice in challenge to &amp;quot;Jury System&amp;quot; under Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act |url=https://www.barandbench.com/news/sc-parsi-marriage-act-notice |access-date=2024-10-19 |website=Bar and Bench - Indian Legal news |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

This act is applicable to present day [[India]], [[Pakistan]] and [[Bangladesh]]. As the successor states of [[British Indian Empire]].&lt;br /&gt;

Tennis was introduced to India in the 1880s by the [[British Army]] and civilian officers.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=History |url=https://aitatennis.com/history/ |website=aitatennis |publisher=All India Tennis Association |access-date=11 January 2023 |location=New Delhi, India}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; As early as 1883, the first tennis courts laid in Madras were at the [[Madras Cricket Club]] (MCC).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=About Us: HISTORY OF TENNIS IN TAMIL NADU |url=https://www.tn-tennis.com/about-us/ |website=www.tn-tennis.com |publisher=Tamil Nadu Tennis Association |access-date=11 January 2023 |location=Chennai, India}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In 1884 Madras Gymkhana Club built its first tennis courts. In 1889 the South India Championship was founded and played at the Madras Gymkhana Club. During the 1930s to 1950s the tournament was known as the South Indian International Championships. The championships ran on the [[ITF World Circuit]] until 1980 before it was downgraded it continued up to the early 1990s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news |date=31 March 1992 |title=Change in Events Madras |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=epBlAAAAIBAJ&amp;amp;q=South+India+Championships+tennis |access-date=16 May 2025 |work=[[The Indian Express]] via [[Google News Archive]] |pages=16}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

}}&#039;&#039;&#039;Hebbal Lake&#039;&#039;&#039; is located in the north of [[Bangalore]] at the mouth of National Highway 7, along the junction of [[Bellary]] Road and the [[Outer Ring Road (Bangalore)|Outer Ring Road]] (ORR). [[Epigraphy|Epigraphic]] evidence suggests that the lake is much older than commonly assumed. The presence of the [[Bhoopasandra inscriptions and hero stones|Bhoopasandra inscription]], dated to the 8th century CE and found near the lake, indicates [[human settlement]] and religious activity in the area around 1,300 years ago.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Krishnamurthy |first=P V |title=Shasana Manthana |publisher=Tumkur University |year=2011 |publication-place=Tumkur |pages=11-15 |language=Kannada |trans-title=Hebbalada Durgikallu Shasana, Shilpa |chapter=3}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Further insights into the region&#039;s antiquity come from the work of historian and epigraphist Dr. P. V. Krishnamurthy. In his study of the Bhoopasandra inscription, he documents a grant made to a Durga idol, originally located near the Hebbal lake bund. The inscription references individuals associated with agrarian professions and water management, suggesting the existence of organized settlements and water bodies in the area over 1,200 years ago. This evidence indicates that Hebbal Lake, or its precursor, may have been integral to the region&#039;s socio-economic fabric during that period.&lt;br /&gt;

The catchment area of the lake was found to be 3750ha&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; and this area includes the residential areas of Yeshwanthpur, Mathikere, [[Rajmahal Vilas Extension]], [[Bharat Electronics Limited]] and [[Hindustan Machine Tools Limited]] colonies.

&lt;br /&gt;
==Ecology==&lt;br /&gt;
The lake is predominantly [[eutrophic]] due to the inflow of sewage. The nutrients support the profuse growth of [[water hyacinth]] and &#039;&#039;[[Typha]]&#039;&#039; in the shallow zone. The habitat is favoured by many species of water birds including large waterbirds such as the [[spot-billed pelican]], [[Eurasian spoonbill]], [[shoveller]], [[northern pintail|pintail]], [[garganey]], [[little grebe]], [[coot]] and [[Indian spot-billed duck]]. The shallow zone supports sandpipers and other waders as well as [[purple moorhen]]s, [[little egret]]s, [[cattle egret]]s, [[purple heron]]s and [[grey heron]]s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last1=Krishna |first1=M.

&lt;br /&gt;
In the late 1990s, an ecological experiment was conducted with the introduction of &#039;&#039;Neochetina bruchi&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;Neochetina eichhorniae&#039;&#039; [[weevil]]s from Argentina to control the growth of water hyacinth.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Singh, SP (2004) &#039;&#039;Some success stories in classical biological control in India&#039;&#039;.

==Management==&lt;br /&gt;
Historically lakes in the Bangalore region were managed by the Public Works Department, but The lake was managed by [[Karnataka State Forest Department]]. The management was transferred in 2002 to the [[Lake Development Authority]], a non-profit society started with the aim of managing lakes in the Bangalore region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A project for lake restoration funded under the [[Indo-Norwegian Environment Programme]] at a cost of Rs. 27&amp;amp;nbsp;million (US$700,000) led to major changes in the ecosystem beginning in 1998. Two artificial islands were created using the soil from desilting under this project. These vegetated islands have become the roost sites of many water-birds. Desilting was ostensibly taken up in 2003 as part of this program.&amp;lt;ref name=pil&amp;gt;[http://www.esgindia.org/campaigns/Hebbal/docs/PIL_ESGvsLDA_BloreLakes_Jan08.pdf Public Interest Litigation from ESG] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080725071712/http://www.esgindia.org/campaigns/Hebbal/docs/PIL_ESGvsLDA_BloreLakes_Jan08.pdf |date=25 July 2008 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;[[File:TreeHebbalStoltenberg.jpg|thumb|Tree planted on 23 April 2001 by the PM of Norway [[Jens Stoltenberg]] during a review of the lake under the Indo-Norwegian Environment Programme]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The LDA leased out Hebbal Lake, one of the largest lakes in [[Bangalore]], to East India Hotels (The [[Oberoi Group]]) for a period of 15 years for an annual lease amount of Rs. {{formatnum:7210000}} and an annual escalation of 1.5% in the amount, under the [[Public–private partnership]] policy. The developments included building a boating jetty, a handicraft and curio gift centre and an island restaurant. The private bidder was also expected to undertake desilting (as done already in 2003) and they were permitted to charge entry fees.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |date=23 June 2008 |title=Of the dangers posed by privatisation of lakes |url=http://www.hindu.com/2008/06/23/stories/2008062357010200.htm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080628210915/http://www.hindu.com/2008/06/23/stories/2008062357010200.htm |archive-date=28 June 2008 |website=The Hindu}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Project Report for Hebbal Lake in Bangalore on DOT Basis |url=https://archive.org/details/HebbalLakeConversion/page/n5/mode/2up?view=theater |via=Internet Archive}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The LDA claimed that this would increase the recreation options for the people but also encourage [[eco-tourism]], support [[bio-diversity]], recharge [[ground water]] and help maintain eco-balance.{{Citation needed|date=October 2008}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Precedents set in the [[Intellectuals Forum v. State of Andhra Pradesh]] judgement of the [[Supreme Court of India]] (C A No. 1251/2006), state that &amp;quot;the tank is a community property and the State authorities are trustees to hold and manage such properties for the benefit of the community and they cannot be allowed to commit any act or omission which will infringe the right of the community and alienate the property to any other person or body&amp;quot;. Opposing citizen groups point out that the privatisation scheme represents a clear contempt of court. The [[Karnataka Fisheries Department]] was asked not to renew the contracts with fishermen at Hebbal Lake in violation of the privatisation agreement that stated that the move would &amp;quot;respect traditional rights&amp;quot; of the users.{{Citation needed|date=October 2008}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The privatisation of Hebbal lake has been pointed out as a threat to the [[bio-diversity]] of these lakes, particularly the birdlife. The threats come from plans to introduce recreational facilities and human activities on the shore apart from draining and drying of the lake for various operations.{{Citation needed|date=October 2008}}&lt;br /&gt;

Ever since he had returned home from his journeys, Nanak knew that neither of his sons could be his successor - Sri Chand lived a life of renunciation while Lakhmi Das was too materialistic.}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; A &#039;&#039;[[sakhi]]&#039;&#039; tells of a time when Guru Nanak requested his two sons to climb a [[Vachellia nilotica|&#039;&#039;kikar&#039;&#039; tree]] to obtain fruit to feed guests but Lakhmi Das and his brother refused to obey his solicitation while Bhai Lehna gladly obeyed and obtained bountiful amounts of fruit, showcasing his devoutness and loyalty to the Guru.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=MacAuliffe |first=Max Arthur |title=The Sikh Religion: Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors |publisher=Clarendon Press |year=1909 |series=The Sikh Religion: Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors |volume=1 |location=Oxford |pages=4–10}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Another sakhi tells of a time when Guru Nanak asked his two sons to carry a bundle of sticks but they refused to whilst Bhai Lehna humbly obliged this command.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Another anecdote of a test performed by Nanak occurred when he asked Lakhmi Das and his elder brother to pickup a jug that fell into dirty ditch and bring it to him.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:4&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Holt |first=James D. |title=Understanding Sikhism: A Guide for Teachers |publisher=Bloomsbury Publishing |year=2022 |isbn=9781350263192 |series=Teaching Religions and Worldviews |quote=Many at the time would, perhaps, have expected one of Guru Nanak&#039;s two sons, Sri Chand and Lakshmi Das, to succeed him as Guru, but a couple of stories are told as to why Guru Nanak chose Lehna to be the second Guru, Guru Angad. The first story tells of a jug that had fallen into a muddy ditch. On being asked to retrieve it, Sri Chand felt that the jug was too dirty and that the dirt would possibly pollute him. Lakhmi Das refused, the suggestion being that it was too menial a task for a son of the Guru. On the other hand, Lehna retrieved it, cleaned it and brought it to Guru Nanak filled with clean water.}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Lakhmi Das refused to as he saw this task as beneath him, he thought very highly of himself since he was the son of Guru Nanak.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:4&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Meanwhile, Bhai Lehna obeyed without hesitation and completed the task by bring the Guru fresh, clean water in the jug that he obtained from the ditch.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:4&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; When his father died, him and his elder brother initially rejected the reality of the [[Guru Gaddi|guruship]] being passed onto Bhai Lehna, who became [[Guru Angad]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; They may have wanted to make a claim for the guruship themselves but according to Sikh legend, when they requested Guru Angad give them their father&#039;s cloak (a symbol of the guruship), neither Lakhmi Das nor his son, Dharam Das, could lift it.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; This satisfied their hearts that Guru Angad was the rightful successor to their father and quelled their desires for the seat of leadership.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Spiritual career ===&lt;br /&gt;
Lakhmi Das was the purported founder of the Jagiasi sect of Sikhism (also known as Jagiasu or Jijnasu; from the Sanskrit word &#039;&#039;[[jijñāsā]]&#039;&#039; meaning &amp;quot;desire to know&amp;quot;).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:15&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Singh |first=Harbans |title=The Encyclopedia of Sikhism |publisher=Punjabi University, Patiala |year=2011 |edition=3rd |volume=2: E-L |pages=318}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:16&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=Singh |first=Bhupinder |date=October–December 2020 |title=Nanakpanthis |url=https://www.sikhinstitute.org/oct_2020/8_bhupinder.html |journal=Abstracts of Sikh Studies |publisher=Institute of Sikh Studies |volume=XXII |issue=4 |archive-date=2024-09-28 |access-date=2023-05-30 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240928075215/https://www.sikhinstitute.org/oct_2020/8_bhupinder.html |url-status=dead }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:17&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Singh |first=Bhupender |title=Baba Nanak Shah Fakir |year=2022 |isbn=9789357046602 |pages=14–15}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:18&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last1=Fenech |first1=Louis E. |title=Historical Dictionary of Sikhism |last2=McLeod |first2=W.

They also established many temples. Chief of them was Bawa Gurpat Saheb, the twelfth-generation descendant of Guru Nanak. He played a notable role in Sindhi society. No wonder the Sindhis are very familiar with Sikh scriptures. Today even important Sindhi Muslim leaders such as G.M. Syed feel that the teachings of Guru Nanak would be good for all Sindhis and Punjabis.}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

SCRIBE - 12.1. In the Pothi no colophon indicating the scribe, date and place of writing, has been noticed. Sometimes, Lakhmi Chand, the younger son of Guru Nanak has been associated with its scribing. But no internal and external evidence corroborates the above view.}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Balwant Singh Dhillon finds the connection unlikely.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:5&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Death ===&lt;br /&gt;
Lakhmi Das died on 9 April 1555 at the age of 58 in [[Kartarpur, Pakistan|Kartarpur]] (Sur Empire) near the [[Ravi River]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:02&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

== Legacy ==&lt;br /&gt;
His son, Dharam Das, wedded a woman from the Passi [[Khatri]] clan in 1527, who was the daughter of [[Dewan|Diwan]] Uttam Das and Bibi Lajwanti.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Dharam Das had two sons named Manak Das and Mehr Das.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; The Bedi descendants of Guru Nanak, such as [[Sahib Singh Bedi]] and [[Khem Singh Bedi]], trace their lineage ultimately from him.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last1=Grewal |first1=J. S. |title=Early Nineteenth-Century Panjab |last2=Banga |first2=Indu |publisher=Taylor &amp;amp; Francis |year=2016 |isbn=9781317336945 |quote=All the descendants of Guru Nanak have been men of felicity. At present, Baba Faqir Bakhsh, Sant Bakhsh, Har Bakhsh and Kartar Bakhsh, the sons of Bhup Chand, have distinguished themselves for their commendable manners and apparent and intrinsic qualities. They belong to the 11th generation from Guru Nanak. Baba Nanak had two sons: Sri Chand and Lakhmi Chand. Sri Chand became renunciant and did not get married. Baba Lakhmi Chand came to have a family. His son was Dharm Das who came to have two sons: Manak Chand and Mehar Chand. Manak Chand had three sons: Datar Chand, Jagat Chand and Inayat Chand. In the house of Datar Chand were born five sons: Gurditta who became an emancipated man, Bahar Chand, Tara Chand, Udai Chand and Fateh Chand. Baba Bahar Chand had four sons: Asa Chand, Mansa Chand, Harkaran Chand and Suraj Singh. Asa Chand had three sons: Gursahai, Purab Chand and Karam Shah. In the house of Karam Shah were born two sons: Baba Maya Dhari and Baba Gurcharan Das. The latter died without a child. Baba Maya Dhari came to have three sons: Baba Bhup Chand, Milap Chand and Jamiat Chand. God gave four sons to Baba Bhup Chand, all of whom became learned: Baba Faqir Bakhsh, Baba Sant Bakhsh, Baba Har Bakhsh and Baba Kartar Bakhsh, who have been mentioned above. It is believed that an emancipated darvesh named Tawakkul Shah came to the house of Baba Bhup Chand in Dera Baba Nanak and stayed there for a long time. He was an Udasi belonging to the order of Sri Chand, the son of Nanak Shah and he was well versed in all the branches of knowledge. It was because of their association with him that the sons of Baba Bhup Chand came to possess good manners and learning.}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

== Plot ==&lt;br /&gt;
It is an unusual love story of a village girl and a city-bred doctor. The show focuses on a young Moina and a middle-aged Dr. Subhankar who get married in a turn of events. Life takes a turn when poor and naughty Moina is introduced to the luxurious lifestyle of Dr. Subhankar and his family members. Moina creates trouble and [[wikt:havoc|havoc]] in the lives of Subhankar&#039;s family members and she is disliked by them. However, Nupur, who loves Subhankar, decides to train Moina and make her eligible for Dr. Subhankar. &#039;Bikele Bhorer Phool&#039; is a unique phrase which describes Moina and Dr. Subhankar&#039;s love story. The saying goes - &amp;quot;When two souls are meant for each other, they will find a way to meet, however different they are.&amp;quot; Love is indeed the acceptance of difference not the search for similarities and more the difference, steadier the relationship. When Moyna, a high-spirited, fun-loving, mischievous, unruly, pampered village belle meets a city-bred, serious, no-nonsense, middle-aged, mellow Doctor, Subhankar, there is a war of words, thoughts and outlook towards life. Subhankar&#039;s disciplined character and thought process is obliterated right away by the simple facts of life as derived by Moyna. They say marriages are made in heaven. On earth, society&#039;s set rules of discrimination of age, caste, creed, background take a back seat in &#039;Bikele Bhorer Phool&#039; where two diametrically opposite persons refuse to give up on each other and embark on a divine journey of marriage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dr. Subhankar realizes that Moina needs to be educated to adjust with her family who have all completed their Masters. She is admitted to a school on recommendations. Meanwhile, Konok Kakon plots a dangerous plot to get the ownership of Dr. Subhankar Banerjee Nursing Home from Subhankar. She puts public pressure on him and succeeds in her mission. Marriage of Nupur or according to Moina Bhalo Didi&#039;s has been fixed. Shubhankar has decided to take the responsibility.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moina does not know that her father is alive and her father is none other than Konok Kakon&#039;s husband. Konok Kakon will try to kill Moina but Nupur will save her from death. Moina will save the Banerjee family from troubles and danger. Will Nupur die what is awaiting them? Moina saves Nupur from the dangerous plot by Konok Kakon. Later Subhankar signs the property papers and makes the Banerjee house in Dipankar wife Anjali&#039;s name. Will Moina save the Banerjee house from selling to someone else? Moyna will finally know that her father is none other than Palash Patra (Konok Kakon&#039;s husband). She will run to him to the hospital but Konok Kakon makes a fake Moina to go to Polash before Moina does. Will Moina expose Konok Kakon and the fake Moina? Later, Konok Khakon Makes a conspiracy against Subhankar to make his clinic in her name and make him jailed for a fake death case but her plan succeeded on making the Subhankar&amp;quot;s clinic in her name and she does not succeed in putting Subhankar in jail. Moina Saves him on Time and exposes Konok Khakon in front of everyone and then Anjali tries to create a misunderstanding between Moina and Nupur a.k.a. (Balo didi) and she succeeds in making a rift between Moina and Balo didi and Moina Leaves the Banerjee house because of this and she vows to bring Subhankar Doctor Register Certificate back. After many Twist, Moina Come back to Banerjee house to Give Dr Subhankar Banerjee his doctor register certificate back to his aunt and Subhankar&amp;quot;s aunt accepts Moina as the eldest daughter-in-law of Banerjee house. In the last episode, Nupur marries Aditya and Subhankar meets with an accident (which turned out to be a fake and a plan between Subhankar and Moina just to expose Aditya&#039;s true colours in front of everyone), but later forgives Aditya for his misdeeds. The show ends on a happy note with Subhankar and Moina confessing their love for each other and they unite.&lt;br /&gt;

[[Ladakh]] is a newly formed union territory  of [[India]]. This northernmost part of India had some of the highest mountain peaks in the world. Many of them are unclimbed and some of them unnamed. A large number of peaks in Ladakh are still not open for climbing due to security reasons, as this region borders [[Tibet Autonomous Region]] of the [[China|People&#039;s Republic of China]] in the North and East and [[Line Of Control]] (LOC) and The India–Pakistan AGPL [[Actual Ground Position Line]]. That divides current positions of Indian and Pakistani military posts and troops in the West.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://tribune.com.pk/story/368394/the-fight-for-siachen/ The fight for Siachen]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; There are five major mountain range in Ladakh From South The Great [[Himalaya range]], [[Zanskar range]], [[Ladakh range]], [[Pangong range]] and [[Karakoram range]].&lt;br /&gt;
