Honour Killing
Three get life imprisonment

New Delhi, August 4
The Supreme Court has awarded life sentence to three persons in an honour killing case, in which six members of a family were gunned down but said the accused deserved a capital punishment. The apex court, however, refrained from awarding death penalty to Master Krishna, Ram Sewak and Kishori as the incident was two decades old and slammed the High Court for acquitting them by rejecting the testimonies of a child and another witness.

The Supreme Court today took serious note of the CBI’s allegation against Ghaziabad District Judge Vishnu Chandra Gupta that he was interfering in the investigations into the PF scam and sought explanation from him. “If the allegation is true, it amounts to direct interference in the functioning of this court,” a three-member Bench headed by Justice DK Jain remarked.


Buddha’s alma mater Nalanda in new avatar
The oldest university in the world is set to come up again after 800 years 
During the six centuries of its storied existence, there was nothing else quite like Nalanda University. Probably the first-ever large educational establishment, the college — in what is now eastern India — even counted the Buddha among its visitors and alumni. At its height, it had 10,000 students, 2,000 staff and strove for both understanding and academic excellence. Today, this much-celebrated centre of Buddhist learning is in ruins.
