New Delhi: Twitter users on Tuesday evening took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi as hashtag #15LakhAaGaye went trending on micro-blogging site, soon after India crossed 15-lakh COVID-19 cases mark.

The swipe was at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s poll promise of depositing 15 lakh rupees in the bank accounts of every citizen of the country. Modi had made the promise in his election campaigning in 2014 and has been trolled over the years for not fulfilling it.

On Tuesday evening, India became only the third country to breach the 15 lakh cases of Coronavirus after the USA which tops the chart and Brazil which is on the second spot of the list of countries with the most cases.

The hashtag #15LakhAaGaye soon went trending and in no time was among the top three trending topics on Twitter India with over 20K tweets.

Lucknow (PTI): The Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High Court on Friday ordered a probe by the special task force (STF) into alleged irregularities in the rejoining of a teacher at City Intermediate College in Barabanki, observing that the reinstatement appeared to be prima facie illegal.

The court also directed the recovery of the salary paid to the teacher during the disputed period.

A bench of Justice Rajeev Singh passed the order on a petition filed by the college management committee. The court expressed doubts over the roles of the District Inspector of Schools (DIOS), Barabanki, the college principal and the teacher concerned and hence, directed a detailed inquiry into the matter.

Taking note of alleged manipulation of records and misleading submissions, the court ordered the immediate transfer of the Barabanki DIOS to ensure a fair probe. It also directed the initiation of disciplinary proceedings against the then joint director of education of the Ayodhya division.

In its order, the court found that the teacher, Abhay Kumar, was initially appointed as an assistant teacher in 2018 but joined an Eklavya Model Residential School in Chhattisgarh as a lecturer in June 2024 without obtaining permission from the management. His subsequent request to retain the lien was rejected.

Despite this, he was allowed to rejoin the Barabanki College in September 2025 on the directions of the joint director of education and the DIOS, and was even paid the salary for October 2025. The court termed the rejoining "wholly illegal" and lacking any legal basis.

The bench also expressed concern over lapses in communication within the education department and directed the Uttar Pradesh chief secretary to ensure that official orders are communicated through email and WhatsApp as well, to prevent disputes.

The matter is next listed for hearing on May 28 when a compliance report is sought.
