Calling Gandhi "Father of Nation", an insult to Bharat Mata: Mahesh Vikram Hegde
Bengaluru: Controversial Journalist and founder of fake news factory ‘postcard news’ Mahesh Vikram Hegde on Thursday posted a controversial tweet on his twitter handle adding that terming Mahatma Gandhi as the father of the nation would be an insult to the nation given the thousands of years of heritage of the country.
Hegde instead suggested that the Ganhiji should be called as the “Son of Bharat Mata” instead of “Father of Nation”.
“Nationa that has thousands of years of heritage is called BHARAT MATA We’ve given the place MOTHER. So Won’t it be an insult to our mother if we call Gandhiji as “Father of Nation”? (SIC) he questioned in the tweet.
He further ‘reminded’ readers that India’s neighboring country Pakistan was due to Mahatma Gandhi. “It is better call him “son of Bharat Mata” Let me remind that Pakistan was born due to him” (SIC).
Mahesh Hegde has been in past on multiple occasions been detained and arrested by police for posting, sharing and spreading fake news post on his website. Earlier in April this year he was also arrested by the state police after Karnataka Home Minister had filed a complaint as a fake letter was circulated ahead of the Lok Sabha Election in the state which was allegedly written to Sonia Gandhi by Patil regarding Lingayat issue in the state.

Husband has to equally participate in household chores as he is not marrying a maid: SC
New Delhi (PTI): The Supreme Court on Friday said a husband has to equally participate in household chores like cooking, cleaning and washing as he is not marrying a maid but a life partner.
The observations came from a bench of Justices Vikram Nath and Sandeep Mehta which was hearing a petition filed by a man challenging an order of the Karnataka High Court.
The high court had set aside a trial court order granting divorce to the man on the ground of cruelty.
During the hearing before the apex court, the counsel appearing for the man said the mediation between the parties had failed.
He said the marriage between the parties took place in May 2017 and since 2019, the couple is separated.

"I (man) want a divorce. The trial court granted a divorce on the ground of cruelty," the counsel said.
The bench asked what the cruelty was as alleged in the matter.
The counsel appearing for the man said the woman had indulged in improper behaviour and was not cooking food.
"You have to equally participate in all these. Cooking, cleaning, washing, everything. Today's times are different," Justice Nath observed, adding the high court was right that it might not be a ground for cruelty.
"You are not marrying a maid. You are marrying a life partner," Justice Mehta observed.
The bench was told that both of them were working in a government school.
"Call both parties physically. We would like to speak to them," the bench said.
It posted the matter for hearing on April 27 and asked both parties to remain present before it.
