Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on the assault case of Swati Maliwal: “High-level pressure on her”
Speaking on the alleged assault of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Swati Maliwal, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman claimed that the former head of the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) was under “pressure from high-level” and that’s why she didn’t register a report for three to four days.
Speaking at a press conference held at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) headquarters, Sitharaman stated, “It indicates that there was pressure on Swati Maliwal from higher up because she didn’t file a police report for three to four days after the occurrence. There’s good reason to think that she was under enough pressure and that it will likely continue with her.
Sitharaman criticised Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi, for being silent in the face of the attack.
“Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal’s female constituents are questioning whether he can even offer them security in the city. Nirmala Sitharaman stated, “This tragedy is Arvind Kejriwal’s fault.
She expressed disbelief and unacceptableness at Arvind Kejriwal’s silence on the matter.
“CM Arvind Kejriwal has not said a word about the violence against a female member of his own party in the Rajya Sabha since May 13. She stated, “It is unbelievable and unacceptable that he did not even say anything about the assault of the chief of the Delhi Commission for Women, a female member of his party.”
In addition to “kicking” her in her “chest, stomach, and pelvis area,” Maliwal has claimed that Bibhav Kumar, Kejriwal’s personal assistant, “slapped” her “at least seven to eight times” as she “continued screaming” and “brutally dragged” her. In accordance with Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, Maliwal also recorded her statement in front of the magistrate in the Tis Hazari court in the nation’s capital on Friday.
Sitharaman also criticised the AAP for not endorsing the Women’s Reservation Bill, which was just enacted by the legislature.
“AAP leader Sanjay Singh referred to the first bill—the Women’s Reservation Bill—as the Mahila Bewakuf Banao Bill when it was passed in the new Parliament building. Who is fooling women these days? No, it’s not the BJP. Bansuri Swaraj and Kamaljeet Sehrawat are the two Delhi-based Lok Sabha candidates for our party. In contrast, she claimed, the AAP does not have a single female candidate in Delhi.
Assault or use of criminal force against a woman with intent to disrobe, 354B Assault or use of criminal force against a woman, 506 (punishment for criminal intimidation), and 509 (word, gesture, or act intended to insult a woman’s modesty) are among the IPC Sections under which Maliwal filed a FIR on Thursday.
Maliwal posted on Thursday, stating, “What happened to me was very bad,” after speaking with X. I have provided the police with my statement regarding the incident that occurred to me. I’m hoping the right steps will be done. I have had an extremely terrible few days. I’m grateful to everyone who prayed for me. The people who attempted to discredit her said that she was acting at the other party’s request; may God continue to bless them as well. The nation is currently holding a crucial election; national issues are more significant than Swati Maliwal. The BJP has received a special appeal not to politicise this tragedy.

Amit Shah will preside over a high-level Manipur meeting.
Monday night’s meeting to assess the security situation in Manipur will be facilitated by Union Home Minister Amit Shah. This is the first high-level gathering of its kind held by the central government since Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s National Democratic Alliance (NDA) was re-elected earlier this month.
Senior representatives from the federal government, state governments, including chief minister N Biren Singh, the army, and other security agencies are anticipated to attend the meeting at 4 p.m., according to people with knowledge of the development.
Manipur has seen fighting between the Kukis and Meiteis communities since May 3 of last year. The fighting has resulted in at least 225 deaths to far and the displacement of almost 50,000 people, the majority of whom are still living in relief shelters.
The previous few weeks have seen new acts of violence in the northeastern state, including the burning of a school facility close to Moreh and the discovery of the beheaded body of a missing individual.
In the Kangpokpi district last week, armed terrorists assaulted the vehicle of Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh’s enhanced security team, injuring a security officer and a civilian driver.
Dr. Mohan Bhagwat, the chief of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), stated on June 10 that Manipur has been waiting for peace for a year and that this problem has to be given priority.
Bhagwat emphasised the importance of putting aside political hyperbole and concentrating on the issues confronting the country.
Dattatreya Hosabale, the general secretary of the RSS, called the current violence in Manipur “painful” and “worrisome.”
The Sangh, according to a statement, feels that the only way to solve any issue is “through mutual dialogue and expression of brotherhood in a peaceful atmosphere.”
In an attempt to mediate peace, Shah had earlier travelled to Manipur last month and convened nine talks with leaders of the Kuki and Meitei groups. Despite this, the violence has not decreased.

Uttar Pradesh: PM Modi’s visit to the Kashi Vishwanath temple in Varanasi is well underway.
On Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will travel to Varanasi, his home district in the Lok Sabha. This will be his first trip to the sacred city since taking office as the nation’s third prime minister.
At the historic Kashi Vishwanath temple, PM Modi is expected to engage with farmers and take part in Ganga Aarti.
What is currently known regarding Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Varanasi is as follows:
For 4.5 hours, Prime Minister Modi will be in Varanasi. At roughly 4 p.m., he will touch down at Babatpur’s Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport.
Prior to releasing the 17th installment of the Samman Nidhi, which is intended to benefit 2,76,665 farmers in Kashi, PM Modi will attend a “Kisan Samelan.”
In order to commemorate the farmers in the area, PM Modi will meet with 21 of them at the Kisan Samelan and evaluate their products. BJP party officials are preparing for the visit.
The visit of Prime Minister Modi is a source of pride for the people of Varanasi, according to BJP president Dilip Patel. “We are all proud that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken the oath of office three times—once as the nation’s prime minister and once as a member of the Varanasi assembly.”
Following his meeting with the farmers, Prime Minister Modi is scheduled to attend the Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat at the Kashi Vishwanath temple.
Vishwa Bhushan Mishra, the CEO of the Kashi Vishwanath temple, stated in an interview that they have a process for the Prime Minister’s visit. PM Modi is anticipated to spend about twenty-five minutes inside the temple.
Ajay Rai, Modi’s previous opponent for the Varanasi seat, criticised him, claiming that Modi was displacing natives with Gujaratis by handing all employment to them. Regarding the purported dearth of factories and development in the city, he questioned Modi.

Sunita Kejriwal is requested by the Delhi High Court to remove Arvind Kejriwal’s court footage from social media.
The wife of chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, Sunita Kejriwal, has been ordered by the Delhi High Court to remove a video of her husband speaking to a Delhi court from her social media accounts. The social media companies have also been ordered by the court to remove posts that contain links to the video.
In addition, the high court has sent notices to all parties involved in the PIL, which was filed by lawyer Vaibhav Singh, alleging that Kejriwal’s appearance before Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court on March 28 violated the court’s regulations regarding video conferencing.
Among the five people requested to remove the social media posts is Sunita Kejriwal.
The court has set July 9 for the hearing.
On March 28, Arvind Kejriwal personally addressed Special Judge (PC Act) Kaveri Baweja after being brought before the court a second time after being arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in connection with the Delhi liquor policy case.
Sunita Kejriwal reposted the images after the audio and video recordings of the speech went viral on social media.
When films with comparable content are brought to their attention, the Delhi High Court ordered X, YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram to remove them.
The notice on the PIL filed by the Delhi-based attorney Vaibhav Singh was issued by a division bench made up of Justices Neena Bansal Krishna and Amit Sharma.
After he disregarded nine summonses from the Enforcement Directorate, Arvind Kejriwal was taken into custody on March 21 in relation to the excise policy fraud. Subsequently, the Delhi High Court affirmed the agency’s decision.
Later, Arvind Kejriwal petitioned the Supreme Court to overturn his arrest.
In order to enable Kejriwal to campaign for his Aam Aadmi Party during the Lok Sabha elections, the Supreme Court granted him temporary release in May for a period of 21 days.
On June 2, he turned himself in to the Tihar Jail officials per the Supreme Court’s directive.
The former bureaucrat Sunita Kejriwal had spent a great deal of time campaigning for the AAP during the Lok Sabha elections. But the party was unable to secure a single seat in the nation’s capital.
