Hardoi: In an incident reported from Uttar Pradesh’s Hardoi, a man missing for nearly seven years was traced and arrested after his wife spotted him in an Instagram reel with another woman.
Jitendra Kumar, also known as Bablu, went missing in 2018, just a year after marrying Sheelu. The marriage reportedly turned sour due to alleged dowry demands, including a gold chain and a ring. After Sheelu was forced out of her marital home for failing to meet these demands, her family filed a dowry harassment complaint, India Today reported on Tuesday.
Amid the investigation into the dowry case, Jitendra mysteriously disappeared. His father filed a missing person report on April 20, 2018. With no progress in the case, the family later accused Sheelu and her relatives of killing Jitendra and disposing of his body.
For years, Sheelu lived in hope, unaware of her husband’s whereabouts. Seven years later, Sheelu came across an Instagram reel that featured her husband with another woman. Recognising him instantly, Sheelu immediately reported the matter to Kotwali Sandila police.
A police investigation revealed that Jitendra had staged his disappearance and relocated to Ludhiana, where he had married another woman, added the report.
Sandila Circle Officer Santosh Singh confirmed that Jitendra has been taken into custody based on Sheelu’s complaint and supporting evidence from social media. A case has been registered under relevant legal sections pertaining to bigamy, fraud, and dowry harassment.

Bengaluru (PTI): The Karnataka School Education Department has issued a circular strictly prohibiting children from being made to dance to obscene songs in educational and cultural programmes.
It stated that such dances would negatively impact students' mental health and moral values. It will create indiscipline and harm the sanctity of education.
"All the Deputy Directors (Administration) of the state's School Education Department have been asked to take strict measures to prevent children or students from dancing to obscene songs in all government, aided and unaided schools in the state," the office of the commissioner of the School Education Department said in a recent circular.
"If it is found that children are being made to dance to obscene songs, appropriate action will be taken against the headmaster or management of such school," it added.
The department also listed certain measures in this regard, which include: strictly prohibiting children from being made to dance to obscene songs during educational and cultural programmes; selecting songs that are inspiring, positive, instilling national pride in children and reflecting the greatness, dignity, values, culture, and morality of the state.
Stating that the school headmaster and management are responsible for selecting songs and dances for cultural programmes, it said, they should also ensure that students wear decent clothes in dance or cultural programmes.
