After Chhattisgarh, now MP's woman officer seen slapping boy for violating COVID curfew; video viral
Bhopal: Two days after a video showing Chhattishgarh’s Surajpur district collector slapping a youth went viral on social media platforms, another video has now surfaced from Madhya Pradesh’s Shajapur district wherein a female office is seen slapping a boy for violating COVID-19 norms.
The officer, identified as Additional District Collector of Shajapur district, Manjusha Vikrant Rai has drawn criticism from social media users ever since the video went viral. She is being criticized for breaching tenets of civility.
As per reports, the incident took place two days ago when Shajapur additional district collector Manjusha Vikrant Rai was out with her team to ensure implementation of ‘corona curfew’, ordered by the state government to curb the spread of COVID-19 infection. She noticed a shoe shop open and flared up in rage.
In the viral social media video, the woman officer and some policemen can be seen questioning a man – who was present inside the shop – and ordering him to pull down the shop’s shutter. Seconds later, a boy enters the frame, and the woman officer – who was visibly extremely furious – slaps him.
The ADM can be heard asking the boy, “Ghar kahan hai tera (where is your house)?” When the boy told her his address, she accused him of lying and slapped him. Following this, a policeman can be seen rushing towards the boy and threatening to hit him with a baton.
Meanwhile, the collector of Chhattisgarh's Surajpur district, Ranbir Sharma, was removed from the post after a viral video showed him slapping a man and throwing his mobile phone for alleged COVID-19 norms violation.
In Shajapur MP, Additional Collector Manjusha Vikrant Rai slap a Muslim boy who presents in the shoe shop.

At least 11 killed, dozens injured in Israeli strikes in Beirut as diplomats push for cease-fire
Beirut (Lebanon), Nov 23: Israeli airstrikes on Saturday killed at least 11 people and injured dozens in central Beirut, officials said, as diplomats scrambled to broker a cease-fire.
Lebanon's Health Ministry said the death toll could rise as emergency responders dug through the rubble looking for survivors. DNA tests are being used to identify the victims, it said, adding that 63 people were wounded. The strikes were the fourth in the Lebanese capital in less than a week.
The escalation comes after US envoy Amos Hochstein traveled to the region this week in an attempt to broker a cease-fire deal to end the more than 13 months of fighting between Israel and Hezbollah, which has erupted into full-on war in the past two months.
Israeli bombardment has killed more than 3,500 people in Lebanon and wounded more than 15,000, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry. The fighting has displaced about 1.2 million, or a quarter of Lebanon's population. On the Israeli side, about 90 soldiers and nearly 50 civilians have been killed by rockets, drones and missiles in northern Israel and in fighting in Lebanon.
Israel's war with Hamas also shows no signs of abating. Gaza's health ministry said at least 80 people were killed between Thursday and Friday in multiple strikes in the enclave's north, including the Kamal Adwan and Al-Ahli hospitals. Dozens of people are still trapped under the rubble, it said.
