Grand celebrations in Nagpur on 350th anniversary of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s coronation

In the presence of Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, the Maharashtra government has organised grand events to mark the 350th anniversary of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s coronation atop the Raigad Fort from today until June 6. On June 6, 1674, the Maratha warrior king was crowned at the fort where he had established “Hindavi-Swaraj”—the self-rule of Hindus.
A grand celebration with Shivaji’s successors
Due to conflicting perspectives on the festivities, two events with a projected attendance of tens of thousands will be staged on June 2 according to the Hindu calendar and on June 6 according to the English calendar. Many of Shivaji Maharaj’s successors have also been invited to the celebrations apart from many other eminent dignitaries from the state.
Massive celebrations have been organised across the state, most notably in Nagpur where countless people can be seen on the streets showcasing various performances, waving flags, and celebrating this historic occasion. RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat is also a part of the festivities.
Special chariots and multiple exhibits grace the occasion
Earlier, Ramesh Bais, the Governor of Maharashtra, gave the go-ahead last week for a special chariot to transport a “sahastra jal kalash” (thousand water urn) filled with water from rivers all over the nation. The water will be utilised for the fort’s coronation ceremony.
Dr Tejas Garge, the Director of Maharashtra’s Archaeology Department had said that it would be the first time in history that an exhibition would be held inside the Gateway of India that would showcase over 500 arms and other weapons used by the Marathas during their time apart from various live demonstrations to be held by trained persons.

Bir Mecca Masjid bomb blast implementation of UAPA

Mumbai: Police has implemented UAPA Act in the Bir Ard Masla Mecca Masjid blast case. On the midnight of March 30, Vijay Agon and Shri Ram Ashok placed a bomb in the mosque and exploded it. This explosion was done with the help of jetliner and detonator. In this case, the police had earlier registered a case under Arms Act and other sections, but after that Muslim organizations had demanded to prosecute the accused under UAPA Act and NSA.
The Beed blast was investigated by the local crime branch, in which the crime branch found that the explosion was very powerful and detonators were also used along with jetliner rods. On this basis, UAPA Act has been implemented on the recommendation of the Crime Branch. Police have registered a case against both the terrorists under sections 16 and 18 of UAPA. Since the Beed blast, Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) is investigating it along with the police. The ATS is investigating the connection and financing of terrorists in this case, including how jetliner rods were made available to the accused and who provided them jetliner rods without license or permit. Along with this, investigation is also going on to find out how many more people and conspirators are involved in this case. ATS said that investigation is going on every aspect and point of the Beed bomb blast, however, ATS has so far questioned many people in this case, including family members and well-wishers of the accused as well as their friends and acquaintances. ATS is trying to uncover the conspiracy before the blast in the Beed Mecca Masjid blast case because before the blast, accused Vijay Agon had released a video and uploaded it on the status threatening Muslims to remove the mosque and only after that the blast took place here. The local police had also registered a case of spreading religious hatred against the accused a day earlier and the mosque was blown up the next day.

Actor Ajaz Khan’s Wife Fallon Guliwala Granted Bail in Drugs Case

Mumbai: Fallon Guliwala, wife of actor Ajaz Khan, who was arrested in November 2024 after narcotics were recovered from her residence, has been granted bail by a special court in Mumbai.
Guliwala had been in custody for over four months. The court has imposed certain conditions for her bail, including the submission of her passport, a restriction on travel, and mandatory attendance before the investigating officer three times a week until the chargesheet is filed.
Her lawyer, Ayaz Khan, argued that she was unaware of the recovered items and that she was not the only occupant of the premises. He also mentioned that the CCTV system was turned off during the raid, and no videography or photography was conducted.
Special Public Prosecutor Vibhavari Pathak opposed the bail plea, stating that a prima facie case existed against Guliwala.
Considering that the seizure process had already been completed, the court granted bail but with strict conditions.
