institute forms probe panel
Prayagraj, Sep 23: A hospital here has constituted a probe committee after a video of a woman offering namaz on the premises surfaced online. But police on Friday said no crime has been committed.
Superintendent of Tej Bahadur Sapru Hospital Dr MK Akhauri said that Sabiha had come on Thursday to meet a patient admitted in the dengue ward, and suddenly in the afternoon, she started offering namaz there itself.
Someone made a video of her, and posted it on social media, he said, adding, the hospital administration reached there, and warned the woman not to do it.
The hospital administration has constituted a committee to probe the incident, Akhauri said.
Meanwhile, the Prayagraj Police in a tweet about the incident, said the woman's act does not come under the category of crime.
"In the probe of the viral video, it was found that the woman without any wrong intention or without obstructing any work or movement had offered prayers for the speedy recovery of her patient admitted in the hospital," the police said in a tweet.
Reacting to the incident, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi in a tweet in Hindi said, "If any person, who is looking after their relative admitted in a hospital, praying as per their religion without disturbing anyone, then what is the crime in this? Does the UP Police have no other work? Wherever namaz is offered, FIRs are registered against the namazis."

अस्पताल में भर्ती, अपने रिश्तेदार की देख-भाल करने वाले किसी कोने में, किसी को तकलीफ़ दिए बग़ैर,अपने मज़हब के मुताबिक़ इबादत करते हैं तो इस में जुर्म क्या है? क्या UP पुलिस के पास कोई और काम नहीं है? जहाँ भी नमाज़ पढ़ी जाती है, वहां नमाज़ियों पर FIR दर्ज हो जाती है। https://t.co/HlPlyUPSV2

Hundreds of TVK supporters return disappointed from cancelled swearing in ceremony venue
Chennai (PTI): Hundreds of TVK supporters, fuelled by the hope of seeing their leader Vijay as chief minister, gathered at Nehru Indoor Stadium in the city on Thursday, only to be met with locked gates and a lack of information regarding the scheduled proceedings.
Many supporters, travelling from various parts of the state, near and far, like Arumbakkam and Coimbatore, expressed deep disappointment and confusion upon finding the premises closed and without official communication.
Speaking to PTI Videos, fans and party loyalists described a sense of heartbreak after arriving early to secure a place in line.
Charulatha, a supporter, noted the emotional toll of the situation: "We came with so much joy thinking he would become the chief minister today, but there is nothing here. The gates are closed. It is very painful."
Sai Deepika, her daughter and a student set to enter the 12th grade, shared her excitement for the event: "I was very excited to be here. I have been telling everyone he will win and do good things for the people."
A visibly distressed Gunasundari, a long-time political observer from a family of AIADMK supporters, stated she shifted her loyalty to Vijay: "I publicly say I voted for Vijay. I have a belief that he will help those in need. Seeing the gates closed like this is a shock."
Despite the confusion on the ground, the gathered crowd remained steadfast in their political choice. Several supporters highlighted Vijay’s decision to fund party activities independently as a key reason for their trust.
"He didn't take a single rupee from the people for his flag or the stage. He did it all himself," said an emotional Gunasundari. "Even if they try to shame him or create obstacles, he is the one who will eventually win."
Many attendees cited news reports and social media claims as their reason for arriving early on Thursday morning. Some supporters mentioned they had travelled via public transport and waited for hours under the impression that an official declaration or event was imminent.
"My son told me that declarations were made yesterday and everyone was coming today," Gunasundari added. "I didn't even tell him I was leaving; I just started my journey to see him in person for the first time".
