In Karnataka, a man assaults a female advocate on camera and is arrested

According to news agency ANI, a lady advocate was brutally assaulted by her neighbour in Bagalkote Town Circle street over a property dispute. The man, identified as Mahantesh Cholachagudd, can be seen kicking and slapping her neighbour, Sangeeta Shikkeri, in a video that has gone viral.

Around 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, the assault occurred. She went to Mahantesh’s shop, where they got into an argument, which turned violent when the man began assaulting Sangeeta.

Despite her husband’s repeated pleas for assistance, no one came to her aid.

Hariprasad B.K., the Leader of the Opposition in the Karnataka Legislative Council, shared the video and urged the police to arrest the accused immediately. The Congress leader claimed that the man assaulted the lawyer with the “support of a BJP leader,” citing the victim.

At AQI 273, Delhi’s air quality improves for second day, yet in ‘poor’ category

According to CPCB, the national capital recorded an AQI of 285 on Sunday.

There was a slight improvement in Delhi’s air quality for the second consecutive day on Monday, even as it remained of “poor” quality with an Air Quality Index (AQI) of 273 in the morning.

According to data provided by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), the national capital recorded an AQI of 285 on Sunday, an improvement to the “poor” category, and a welcome relief following 32 consecutive days of “very poor” and “severe” air quality (AQI above 400).

October 29 was the previous instance of Delhi’s air quality being in the “poor” category, when it was at an AQI of 268, as per CPCB.

Experts say that the improvement is due to dry northwesterly winds and ample sunlight, which have helped disperse pollutants. However, the situation remains far from ideal as an AQI between 201 and 300 remains “harmful” to sensitive groups.

The AQI is divided into six categories: “good” (0-50), “satisfactory” (51-100), “moderate” (101-200), “poor” (201-300), “very poor” (301-400) and “severe” (401-500).

Currently, Delhi is under Stage 4 of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) of the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM). On November 29, the Supreme Court directed authorities to not lift the stringent anti-pollution measures at least until Monday.

Stage 4 of GRAP came into effect on November 18 in Delhi.
