UP: In-laws deny entry to woman, police call bulldozer
Bijnor, Aug 30: Police called in a bulldozer when the in-laws of a woman refused to let her enter their home here despite a court order, an official said on Tuesday.
The incident occurred in Harinagar area on Sunday under Haldaur police station limits after the Allahabad High Court ordered the city police to help the woman, Nutan Malik, get back into her husband's house.
Bijnor District Probation Officer Ruby Gupta on Tuesday said when the police along with the woman reached her in-laws' house, the family closed the doors, refusing to keep her with them.
When the doors were not opened despite prolonged discussions, a JCB machine was called to break the door and the in-laws relented and opened the door for her, Gupta said.
According to the police, Nutan Malik from Dhokalpur village got married to bank manager Robin Singh of Harinagar five years ago. However, the two started having problems soon after.
On June 19, 2019, Robin was arrested after Malik filed a case of harassment over dowry against him. Following this she was thrown out of the house. Since then the woman was living in her parents' house, Gupta said.
Her father had later moved to the Allahabad High Court seeking justice for his daughter and the court directed the administrative officials to ensure security to the woman besides getting her entry in her in-laws' house, Gupta said.
ASP (City) Dr Praveen Ranjan Singh said that in compliance with the order of the Allahabad High Court, the woman has been given police protection after getting her enter in-laws' house.

कोर्ट के आदेश पर महिला को ससुराल छोड़ने गई पुलिस, लेकिन जब ससुराल वालों ने दरवाजा नहीं खोला तो पुलिसवाले बुलडोजर ले आए 😂

Dakshina Kannada district administration gears up for monsoon season
Mangaluru (PTI): The Dakshina Kannada district administration has got down to work ahead of the monsoon season (June to August) by beginning preparations to tackle various rain-related issues.
At a meeting held on Tuesday, the district authorities, Deputy Commissioner Mullai Muhilan MP reached out to the ground-level bureaucracy with directions on how to handle the challenges during the monsoon season.
Addressing the drinking water and disaster management authority officials, he highlighted the problems faced due to poor maintenance of the electrical system under Mangaluru Electric Supply Company (MESCOM) and said it was not just failure of power supply during rains but also snapping of live cables and falling electric poles which were a concern.
Since this would cause serious damage to life and property, he urged MESCOM to take precautions by carrying out inspections.
Muhilan also directed MESCOM to deploy additional men and open more control rooms across the district during the monsoon season and said both urban and rural areas must be given equal importance.
Muhilan said in the run-up to the monsoons, the existing domestic water availability should be managed prudently.
At the meeting, emphasis was laid on cleaning of dumping yards and garbage disposal areas before the monsoon.
The health department was asked to take precautionary measures against the spread of infectious diseases such as dengue and malaria during the rainy season.
He said that the National Highway should list areas where landslides occur in Charmadi Ghat areas and information should be made available to people about traffic related issues in ghat areas.
The district Deputy Commissioner instructed the Fisheries Department to hold a meeting on precautionary measures for fishermen during the rainy season.
