Child-trafficking case: CID grills BJP worker Kailash Vijayvargiya
Indore: The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of West Bengal questioned the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) General Secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya for two hours in connection with alleged child trafficking case, in Indore.
However, Vijayvargiya had always denied the allegations and claimed that this was an attempt of the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) to malign the image of BJP in West Bengal.
In July 20, the CID of West Bengal had sent notices to BJP MP Roopa Ganguly and party general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya in connection with the case.
Besides Ganguly, the notice, under Section 160 CrPC, had also been sent to Vinayak Mishra, Prashant Saree. The CID, which has sent a notice to Kailash Vijayvargiya and Roopa Ganguly under Section 160 CrPC, has also summoned them to appear before it on July 27 and 29.
As per the reports, one of the accused in the case had sought help from both the political leaders for the renewal of the license of a shelter home that was allegedly working for international child trafficking racket. The accused reportedly also offered expensive gifts to Vijayvargiya and Ganguly in return for the favours.

Pollution: Delhi Transport Department mandates colour-coded fuel for vehicles
New Delhi (PTI): Delhi Transport Department has mandated vehicle owners in the National Capital Territory to affix colour-coded stickers on their vehicles to help identify fuel types to combat rising pollution levels.
According to a public notice issued by the department, the directive is in line with the Supreme Court's order dated August 12, 2018, and subsequent amendments to Rule 50 of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989.
The vehicle owners in the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi will now be required to install chromium-based hologram stickers, the notice read.
The colour-coded stickers are designed to assist enforcement personnel in visually identifying a vehicle's fuel type during road checks.
The rule applies to both new vehicles, effective from April 1, 2019, and old vehicles, registered before March 31, 2019. Vehicle owners must ensure the stickers are affixed on their windscreens to comply with legal requirements, it said.
Owners of older vehicles are advised to contact their respective vehicle dealers for sticker installation, it read.
Additionally, an online booking facility is available for home installation of High-Security Registration Plates (HSRP) along with the fuel-based colour-coded stickers through the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) website or via the Transport Department's portal, the statement said.
Non-compliance will attract penalties under the Motor Vehicles Act and Rules, and vehicle owners are urged to act promptly to avoid prosecution and ensure their vehicles meet the regulatory standards, it added.
The stickers contain details like the registration number, registering authority, a laser-branded PIN, and the engine and chassis numbers of the vehicles.
