A for Akhilesh, D for Dimple: SP member teaches ‘politicised alphabets’ to students, booked
Saharanpur: A Samajwadi Party member has been booked by the Uttar Pradesh police for allegedly operating an unauthorised school in Saharanpur, where children were taught politicised alphabets, The Times of India reported on Monday.
The FIR, registered at the Dehat Kotwali police station, was based on a complaint filed by a youth identified as Maan Singh, who accused Farhan Gada of politicising education and misleading children. He alleged that the children were being taught phrases like “A for Akhilesh”, “B for Babasaheb”, “D for Dimple” and “M for Mulayam Singh Yadav”, referring to Samajwadi Party leaders and BR Ambedkar.
The incident came to light after a video, reportedly filmed at Gada’s residence in Ramnagar village, was widely shared on social media. “Just as convent schools have their own curriculum, our PDA Pathshala introduces children to socialist ideology,” TOI quoted him as saying.
Farhad Gada stated that he was educating children who were staying at home due to school closures. However, an investigation reportedly revealed that the children featured in the viral video were brought in from a private school and had never been impacted by any school shutdowns.
He has been charged under Section 353(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for promoting enmity between groups, and under provisions of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Prevention of Atrocities Act.
Meanwhile, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav accused the BJP-led state government of being anti-education. In a post on X, he remarked, "Even the British didn't file an FIR for studying. The anti-education face of BJP has now been exposed to the public. Now BJP will be gone forever.”

23-year-old woman found dead at Delhi home; suicide suspected
New Delhi (PTI): A 23-year-old woman was found dead in her house in Delhi's Prem Nagar area, with police suspecting it to be a case of suicide, an official said on Tuesday.
The deceased, identified as Anjali Singh, was found motionless in her room on Monday by her sister and her neighbour.
Police said her father, Vinod Kumar Singh (51), told them that he and his wife were away at work at the time of the incident, while their son and the other daughter were also not at home at the time of the incident.

According to the family, the room in which Anjali was found was locked from the inside. The door was later forcibly opened by a neighbour and her sister with the help of a crowbar.
Her body was found lying on the bed inside the room, police said.
Preliminary inquiry revealed that Anjali had allegedly hanged herself using a piece of cloth tied to the ceiling fan.
It is suspected that the noose eventually might have loosened or torn off, resulting in her being found lying on the bed.
Family members informed the police that Anjali was a final-year student of a librarian science course from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU). About a week ago, her final-year examination results were declared, and she had failed, following which she had been under depression, they said.
The family has not raised any allegation of foul play, police said, adding that no suicide note or external injury marks were found on the body during the initial inspection.
Inquest proceedings have been initiated in the matter as per the law. The body has been sent for post-mortem examination to ascertain the exact cause of death, and further investigation is underway, police added.
