Twitter users stand in solidarity with Shailesh Yadav, Tripura DM who stopped wedding ceremony
Shailesh Yadav was suspended after the video of incident went viral
New Delhi: Twitter users on Thursday voiced their support for Shailesh Yadav DM of West Tripura District, whose video of stopping a wedding ceremony that was violating the COVID-19 protocols went viral, after which he was suspended.
In a video that went viral on social media, the District Magistrate was seen stopping a wedding ceremony at Manikya Court, a marriage hall at North Gate of the Palace Compound, supposedly after the 10 pm cutoff time for Covid-19 night curfew to come into force in the Agartala Municipal Council (AMC) areas.
The video showed him shoving out the bridegroom, arresting everyone present including the bride and groom’s family, and tearing up written permission for the wedding signed by himself.
The move by Shailesh Yadav had received mixed reactions across social media platforms. While some chose to laud the IAS officer for executing his duty others slammed him for misbehavior on duty.
However, on Thursday, the hashtag #IStandWithShaileshYadav was among the top-trending hashtags on the micro-blogging site in India.
Users were all praise for the officers and commended his courage in doing what he is supposed to do.
Here are some of the tweets from the campaign.

People are dying without oxygen, beds, hospitalization, medicine. Children are losing their parents, everyone losing their loved ones, and they are organizing marriage with lots of people. This action was needed.
More power to you officer. https://t.co/hwsAICANuW
Shailesh Yadav IAS,West Tripura DM did nothing wrong. He did everything which was correct and used the powers vested upon him by the law. If the order is the closure of marriage halls at 10 PM,then why were they violating COVID Protocols.#IStandWithShaileshYadav https://t.co/MiOWqbTtnM

Baramati plane crash: AAIB seeks specialised support to retrieve data from cockpit voice recorder
New Delhi (PTI): Aircraft accidents probe agency AAIB on Tuesday said special support has been sought for retrieval of data from the Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) of the Learjet 45 plane that crashed near Baramati last month.
Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar and four others were killed in the fatal crash of the VSR Ventures-owned plane on January 28.
In a statement, the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) said the aircraft was equipped with two independent flight recorders.
Both recorders were exposed to intense heat for a prolonged period during the accident and sustained fire damage, it said.
According to AAIB, the Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR), manufactured by L3-Communications, has been successfully downloaded at its Flight Recorder Laboratory.
"The Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR), manufactured by Honeywell, is undergoing detailed technical examination. Assistance has been sought from the Accredited Representative of the State of Manufacture for specialised support in data retrieval," the probe agency said.
In this case, the state of manufacture is the US.
Requesting all stakeholders to avoid speculation, AAIB said it was diligently following all prescribed technical and procedural protocols to ensure a comprehensive, objective and evidence-based investigation.
It also said the investigation was being done strictly in accordance with the Aircraft (Investigation of Accidents and Incidents) Rules, 2017 and the international standards and recommended practices of ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) Annex 13.
Last week, Civil Aviation Minister K Rammohan Naidu said the preliminary report on the crash of the Learjet 45 aircraft VT-SSK would be released soon.
