00:00Hello and welcome. I'm Sorul Mehrotra Kapoor. This is Five Live.
00:04On the program today, we've got two particular stories in focus.
00:07Number one, we continue to keep the spotlight on the maternal deaths happening in Rajasthan.
00:1519 women have died, one more, and five remain critical on dialysis.
00:21Rajasthan health minister has said, oh, we'll do an investigation in the process.
00:27Earlier he said it was fake drugs. Now he's saying it's the responsibility of the doctors.
00:31Who will take accountability for these 19 lives?
00:35And five more hanging in the middle.
00:38We do do a deep dive on that subject.
00:41Also coming up on the program, the government has now approved a new curriculum for sex education in the classroom.
00:49It starts from class six, starts all the way from good touch, bad touch,
00:54all the way to more complicated issues as we go along.
00:59This is something India has been in need for in a long time.
01:02So what exactly is about to change in your kids' school textbooks, we'll explore that on the program.
01:10But first up, as always, let's take a quick look at what else is the headline on top of five.
01:16Politics over delimitation appears to be shifting.
01:18Sharath Pabar's NCP has now signaled it could support the centre's delimitation bill,
01:23but only if parliament guarantees a 50% increase in Lok Sabha seats for every state.
01:30Supriya Sule says such a formula would prevent states like Maharashtra from being penalised for controlling population growth,
01:36and claims parties like the Samajwati Party and DMK could also consider backing the proposal.
01:43Rajasthan's maternal deaths controversy deepens with another woman now dying in Bikan air after suffering kidney failure following a caesarean
01:50delivery.
01:51The latest death takes the state's maternal death toll in just this year, in fact, just since May 2019.
02:00Even as the questions wound, Rajasthan Health Minister Gajendra Singh has urged against drawing conclusions,
02:08saying officials cannot be penalised without proof of negligence and insisting the investigation is still underway.
02:16Speaking at the Aaj Tak platform, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister defended his government's response to Ram Mandir's Chandachori Rao,
02:25saying that the accused have been arrested and the SIT is probing the case.
02:28This yogi also targeted the Congress and Samajwati Party, saying those who once attacked Aastha are now crying over Chandachori.
02:34Meanwhile, the SIT is expected to submit its report today, with the countability and reforms likely to be the key
02:41focus areas.
02:43A major land fraud investigation is underway in Tamil Nadu after the alleged illegal registration of 1.4 crore of
02:51the temple land worth,
02:52nearly 100 crores linked to the Palani temple mutt.
02:56The State Department there has sought cancellation of the registration, initiating disciplinary action against officials and filed criminal compliance
03:05and also complaints against the sub-registrar, the document writer and the buyers.
03:10And FIR has also been registered and a probe, we are told, is underway.
03:14A key milestone in the Dharamsala mass burial case.
03:17The special investigation team has now submitted a 7,000-page final report before the court, bringing a year-long
03:24probe to a close.
03:25The report has been filed by the SIT chief along with the members of the investigation team.
03:29The focus now shifts to the court, which will examine the findings and decide the next legal course of action.
03:36When it comes to Mamata Banerjee, no end to distress for her.
03:40Weeks after Madan Mitra had been appointed chief whip of a party today,
03:45he has resigned from all posts in the party and joined the rebel camp led by the leader of the
03:51opposition, Ritabrata Banerjee,
03:53launching a sharp attack on Abhishek Banerjee, alleging that the party was reduced to protecting one leader while the party
04:00was sinking.
04:02Long-pending Karnataka cabinet expansion is back in focus.
04:06Chief Minister D.K. Sivakumar as well as Sidhra Maya are set to meet the Congress high command in Delhi
04:11tomorrow to discuss the much-awaited reshuffle.
04:13The party leadership is expected to finalize the list of new ministers,
04:17with the aspirant MLA is now closely watching the outcome as intense lobbying continues for a place in the cabinet.
04:25Another alleged custodial death has triggered outrage in Tamil Nadu.
04:29Sabri Verma, a specially abled man arrested in the Gutka case on the 9th of July, was found dead days
04:35after inside the jail there.
04:38His post-mortem report has revealed multiple injuries, including bruises, aberrations, fractures and head injury,
04:44raising serious questions over what happened in the custody as the probe gathers space.
04:49The death has snowballed into a political flashpoint now with renewed demands for accountability.
04:57Tension in West Asia are escalating.
04:59Iran claims over 30 civilians were killed in the recent U.S. strikes,
05:03while the IRGC has threatened to halt energy exports if the U.S. reimposes a naval blockade.
05:08Meanwhile, there is some relief for India after U.S. lawmakers revised a Russia-sanctioned bill,
05:14cutting the proposed tariff on countries importing Russian energy from 500% to 100%.
05:21The legislation, if cleared, would still give President Trump powers to impose tariffs on countries such as India and China.
05:29Amid global trade uncertainty, India has received a major economic boost.
05:34The India-U.K. Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement comes into force today,
05:40giving 99% of the Indian export duty-free access to U.K. markets.
05:45The deal is expected to boost exports, lower costs for consumers
05:48and barks the sixth free trade agreement to come into effect under the government.
05:58Our top story today, another mother in Rajasthan has died.
06:03She had gone to the hospital to bring a new life into the world.
06:07Instead, after a cesarean delivery, her condition deteriorated,
06:10her urine output dropped to zero and then eventually she died of kidney failure.
06:15Her death now takes Rajasthan's maternal death toll since May to 19,
06:22raising fresh questions over what is really going wrong.
06:28Even as grieving families demand answers,
06:31the Rajasthan government insists that the state's national and WHO norms are being followed.
06:38Health Minister there, Gajendra Singh, says government hospitals handle most critical cases
06:43and there is no conclusion that can be drawn, you know, at the moment at least.
06:48But the tragedy doesn't really end there.
06:50While some mothers never made it home after childbirth, others have survived.
06:55You're talking about quota now.
06:57But are now battling kidney failure, dependence on dialysis every few days
07:02and their families allege negligence.
07:05They demand a kidney transplant, compensation and also accountability.
07:10So what's really going on in Rajasthan?
07:13Why are suddenly a host of mothers who went mostly healthy to the hospital for delivery
07:21ended up A in cesarean and second with kidney complications?
07:26What exactly happened?
07:28My colleagues Sharath Kumar and Chetan Gurjar explore.
07:4519 mothers, 19 deaths in just over two months.
07:55Five young mothers who survived childbirth are now fighting a battle far more painful.
08:01Their kidneys have failed.
08:02They've remained inside hospital wards since May.
08:06Every two or three days, a dialysis session keeps them alive.
08:09Their families say the savings are gone.
08:11Hope is fading and with no certainty over recovery.
08:14Their fight is no longer just for treatment, it's for justice.
08:44We don't know that we will guarantee it for any of those things.
08:47So what's this situation?
08:49What's this situation?
08:50The patient's saying that the patient can't be able to heal.
08:53We were able to heal for dialysis.
08:54We were able to heal for two days.
08:55We were able to heal for seven days.
08:56We were able to heal for medical college.
08:57We went to the hospital and went to the hospital.
08:59Our kidney was destroyed.
09:01We were able to heal our lives.
09:02We were able to heal our children's lives.
09:04The families carried their fight beyond the hospital, submitting a memorandum and a desperate plea.
09:10They're demanding immediate kidney transplants, fully government-funded treatment, compensation,
09:17action against those responsible, and a lifelong commitment to the medical care that these mothers now desperately need.
09:36But Rajasthan's Health Minister continues to brazen it out.
09:40All deliveries, all deliveries, the national average is 48, 1,000,000.
09:46When we are down to the average, there is no problem in Rajasthan.
09:52How is it happening in the cluster?
09:56How is it happening in the cluster?
09:58It's happening in two places.
09:59If you say that the instruments were not right, they were not done, sterilized.
10:05How is it happening in two hospitals?
10:06How is it happening?
10:09Nineteen mothers have died.
10:11Five more are fighting to live.
10:12The government insists that action will follow only if negligence is proven.
10:17For the affected families, that verdict cannot come soon enough.
10:20With Sharath Kumar and Chetan Gojar in Rajasthan, Bira Report, India Today.
10:28Sharath joins us.
10:30He is back on Five Live to decode really what is happening.
10:33Sharath, now the numbers are increasing.
10:35He is running out of 19, which has not been dead until the end of the year.
10:40He has died of 19.
10:41The rest of the kidney failure has already been showed clearly.
10:44If I would think about this,
10:47as far as I think was just about it,
10:48we are not only in a hospital,
10:50we have report of different hospitals and different countries in other areas
10:54of this.
10:54Can you say it is correct that the health minister will not accept it, but there is no role of
11:01the drugs that have been spread in the entire regime?
11:06The drugs that we have already seen are fake and those are the drugs that have not been reported in
11:12Kalkattah?
11:17نہیں آئی ہے
11:18بالکل سونل اس میں کوئی دورہ نہیں ہے
11:20دوائیوں کا اس میں
11:22بڑا رول ہے جس طرح سے
11:24سیجیریان کرنا پڑا
11:26یہ دونوں جو دوائیاں ہیں
11:27اگر وہ دوائیاں کام کرتی تو
11:29نورمل ڈیلیوری ہو سکتی تھی
11:30اور سیجیریان کرتے وقت لا پروائی ہوئی ہے
11:33یہ بات بھی کہی جا رہی ہے
11:34اس کے بعد جو دوائیاں دی گئی ہیں
11:37بلیڈنگ روکنے کے لیے
11:38وہ اکسیٹوسن کام نہیں کیا
11:41یہ بات صحیح ہے

13:22प्रेजिनन अधिकारी थी आशा मेरा उन्हें एपियो किया गया है अपने पत से हटाया गया है प्रेगनेट महिलाओं के स्क्रेइनिंग
13:30ठीक से नहीं करने को लेकर तो करवाई कर रहे हैं यह भी जताने की कोशिश की जा रही है
13:37सारे अस्पतालों में दोरे भी किये जा रहे ह
13:40मगर जो घृटनाय हो चुकी है उसके बारे में साफ-साब बताने के लिए सरकार के तरफ से कोई तयार
13:46नहीं है
13:46स्वास्त मंत्री ही हाई-level meeting लेते हैं और उसमें अलग-अलग लोग बुलाये जाते हैं
13:57मिटिंग में जो वजह बताते हैं डॉक्टर से पूछना वजह जिन्होंने ये operation किया
14:02जिनके देख रेख में operation हुआ वो अपनी गलती कैसे बताएंगे अपने आपने कहीं ने कहीं एक तरह से यह
14:09अंधेरे में रखने वाली बात है और जो तरुन चौधरी गए थे जैपुर से जांच करने के लिए और senior
14:14gyakonologist संधिया चौधरी गई थी उन दोनों ने जो report दी है उ
14:19उस report को राजस्थान सरकार दबाना चाहती है और यह कह रही है कि जो report आई है उसके बारे
14:26में हम कागजात मांग रहे हैं फिर आपको बताएंगे उस report में हमारे सूर्स के अनुसार भिरबाड़ा अस्पताल में लापरवाही
14:34बरती गई जो procedure था उसे फॉलो नहीं किया गया ह
14:44जिस condition में आई थी उसे तत्काल नहीं अटेंड किया गया है और सिजरियन ऑपरिशन के जो sit procedure है
14:52उसे भी deviation हुआ है उसका भी nursing कर्मियों नहीं ख्याल नहीं रखा है यह सारी बातें जो वहां पर
14:59date हुई है उनके परीजय ने भी बताएं हैं आज तक के कैमरे पर ये इंडिया
15:13निकल कर आ रही है इसमें से basically अगर हम quota का मामला देखे तो वहां पर medicines का मामला
15:18लगता है अगर हम bilswada का देखे तो वहां negligence का मामला लगता है यह दो अलग अलग चीजे हैं
15:24कोई एक pattern निकल कर नहीं आ रहा है लेकिन चौकानी वाली बात यह है कि 19 अगर mothers की
15:30death होती है उसके �
15:31सरकार को कोई action तो लेना चाहिए था अभी तक रिपोर्ट भी नहीं ले पर रहे हैं इसा क्या छोपा
15:36रहे हैं यह सवाल मुझे नहीं छोड़ा है बार बर अन इसी सवाल के पीछे हमें लगे रहना है और
15:40हमें जानना है कि वह क्या है उन रिपोर्स के अंदर जो सरकार नहीं
15:44रिलीस कर रही है शरत पूरी जनकारी के लिए बहुत पहुत शुक्रिया हम स्रोडी पर बने रहेंगे and we will
15:50continue to track all the developments and what's really going wrong in Rajasthan
15:57but let's move on mean while to the other big story we are tracking for years sex education in India
16:02had been a subject nobody wanted to touch not schools not parents and certainly not politicians
16:08bring it up in a classroom and you would get discomfort bring it up in a parliament and you would
16:13get outrage
16:13now that is the baggage this subject has carried for decades but that something is about to shift on that
16:22front the center has now told the supreme court is ready to make a comprehensive sex education part of school
16:29curriculum
16:30and this isn't just a random policy idea it comes from 26 member expert committee backed by people from the
16:37Tata Institute of Social Sciences clinical psychologists officials across ministries
16:43this is not activism remember this is a government appointed panel doing the homework but the question is why now
16:50but the supreme court itself pushed for this remember
16:53judges have been alarmed by how the POCSO Act a law built to protect children from sexual abuse is increasingly
16:59being used against teenagers in consensual relationships
17:04teenagers remember under 18 that's the threshold that does not match with the act think about that for a second
17:11right a law meant to shield students and children basically is ending up criminalizing them instead especially in cases involving
17:18minor pregnancies amongst the 15 to 18 year old
17:23the court wanted the government to find a way out of this mess the panel's answer was simple we've got
17:29to educate educate early so children understand their bodies their boundaries and the law before they end up in situations
17:37they do not fully understand and are ready to face consequences for
17:42so with that backdrop what exactly happened and what does it actually mean for your and my kids in the
17:48classroom the ncrt will design a curriculum now starting from class 6 in line with the national education policy 2020
17:56it won't be a one-off lecture the plan is a dedicated session 15 to 20 minutes twice a week
18:03run by teachers specifically trained for this and parents are not being left out parent teacher awareness sessions are part
18:10of the recommendation too so they
18:11this isn't this isn't something that has just been sprung you know on families without preparation you need the same
18:18conducive environment at home same conversation at home as well
18:21now let me also tell you the part where every parent wants clarity on what will actually be taught
18:27now this is not about sexuality remember it's about safety children will learn about personal hygiene body safety difference between
18:35safe and unsafe touch how to recognize and report abuse what puberty does to your bodies and mind
18:41and importantly what consent and healthy relationships actually look like in a world where kids are online earlier than ever
18:51there's a strong focus on online safety too this is protective information not premature exposure remember at least we hope
18:58that's what it will turn out to be in the classroom
19:01india remember would not be pioneering this not the only country sweden made sex education mandatory back in 1955 the
19:10first country in the world to do so argentina colombia peru thailand wetnam all these have built into their national
19:17curriculum some starting as early as preschool
19:19they have the good touch they have the good touch bad touch remember that we all teach our kids now
19:23india has simply been late to the conversation the rest of the world settled in long time ago
19:28and for years the subject was politically radioactive any attempt to introduce it triggered protests accusations of corrupting young minds
19:36what's different this time is the framing and that's what we keep you know stressing on this isn't coming from
19:44an NGO or an activist group that can be dismissed it's coming from court
19:49a court mandated panel with credible institutional backing tied directly to children and child protection law this is what makes
19:56this moment feel different
19:58this is what makes this moment feel different with like i said with the hope that this will be implemented
20:02in the right spirit
20:05so that's the that's the policy so far on how it stands but i thought let's bring on a guest
20:11tonight an expert really poona mutreja joins us she's executive director at population foundation of india somebody who's been tracking
20:18the space for very long to understand
20:20is it really are we getting ahead of ourselves are we getting too hopeful for this or is this something
20:26which has been long
20:27time in the waiting poonam is smiling so i'm wondering what's the reason behind that smile so let me give
20:33you an opening comment first
20:35uh on the face of it this looks like a much needed conversation that was to be had but why
20:42is that smirk on your face what's going on what are we not reading
20:45you know you know i'm smiling because i've given up on comprehensive sexuality education given the socio-political environment
20:54i kept saying yeh word sex ko hata de te hai let's just call it comprehensive health education and so
21:02on
21:03and you know a lot of feminists and young people fought with me and argued with me
21:07so i am very happy that i was proved wrong and that we have a government mandated you're so right
21:16there are times that ngos need to keep quiet and i'm glad i kept quiet for a long time
21:22but there's no denying sonal that it is years of advocacy and years of bringing out the evidence
21:31and preparing the country you know i mean we've spoken to members of parliament who get very upset
21:39and shocked when you tell them how much teenage pregnancy is and so on so it's not that our
21:45people are just culturally um so stuck that they're going to allow our children to commit suicide
21:53you know the i think apart from teenage pregnancies what has shocked a lot of people is the fact
22:01that india has the highest suicide rate even in terms of percentage in the world and girls are
22:10overtaking the boys and so um i'm very happy you know i it's very late today we come on tv
22:18or go to
22:19any meeting yesterday i was talking about maternal mortality on your channel that's it rajasana so you
22:25know it's my opportunity to smirk and be happy i'm glad i'm glad but uh wouldn't you say uh punam
22:34that
22:35work is only half done it's been crafted it's been proposed like i said in the explainer as well
22:41the proof of the pudding is actually going to be in the execution and when it comes to execution we
22:47understand that a lot of uh private schools schools where you know in urban india kids go to
22:53there that education has already trickled in schools are taking that initiative so the real
22:58challenge is actually in you know bharat one and bharat two right like that's where we really need
23:03to go in and do this and the question that arises is that who's going to train the trainers about
23:08this
23:08because it's not just about doing a chapter in the class it's about making them truly understand
23:14the concept of a good touch and a bad touch the concept of consent and you know in a country
23:20like
23:20ours that we are so diverse we are short on training staff those who are there are not really
23:25doing their job right how do you ensure that the message really goes through so on this one we have
23:31to ensure that it's not just a scheme that is rolled out i always say we're a scheming society we
23:36think the work is done when you make a policy or roll out a scheme so on this one i
23:43mean you know the
23:43ngos can hold back but the academic institutes and the so-called credible organizations who have
23:50been engaged in this we will advocate this time with them not only with the not necessarily with
23:56the government to ensure that this is rolled out there's a pedagogy in place there's a curriculum
24:02you know ncr i have experience working with ncrt meaning collaborating with ncrt there are some
24:10excellent people over there who can do a curriculum who they know how to do pedagogy i hope history and
24:19all of this won't come into this it won't and i think it has to be hybrid look there are
24:27we have
24:27a crore teachers in our country and you don't necessarily need to hire new teachers and in fact i don't
24:35want
24:35new teachers hired especially to come to do the teaching i want new people to design the curriculums
24:42and the pedagogy and the you know and we need to make it in an interesting way um and a
24:50communicative
24:51way you know through education entertainment education so that capacity a lot of experts and
24:59ngos have in india in fact i can give the curriculum today to the government of india we have it
25:04um you
25:05know all kinds of things ready but between the ngos but even if they don't go to ngos we'll work
25:11with
25:11ncrt give them the materials and the methodology and the reason i say teachers even though they're hard
25:19pressed for time they must be trained because you know that's what will sensitize them what's the point
25:25of having an outsider come and do sex education and then the teacher scores the child for knowing
25:32what what he or she knows second there are at least one lakh schools where there's only one teacher
25:40there i would say let's mix you know as it is our young people are on the net the figures
25:48the figures are mind-blowing right of the number of kids who have access to if not smartphones even
25:55ordinary phones in which they access misinformation bad information so let's use you know um training
26:04uh orientation through using the net using a digital opportunity and this is something if we do it
26:13interestingly and we do it well where there aren't teachers let's you know india's digital first and we
26:20keep saying that we are ahead in ai let's serve our children with that yeah but yeah but i just
26:29want
26:29to intervene here to say that you know i am a little skeptical about this because if you'll remember
26:33there was an adolescence education program that was rolled out back in 2007 and what was the response
26:39then there was a national policy that came in but several states banned it outright calling it obscene again
26:45politically they were not ready to have a conversation because perhaps these are these politicians who
26:49don't know how to have this conversation even in their own drawing rooms forget about bringing it out
26:54for their constituency right so can you explain for those who still might be on the fence here
27:01what is fundamentally different this time that makes you smile that makes you confident that this
27:07will not meet the same fate so the reason i am confident it won't reach the same fate is partly
27:17because
27:17there was a huge problem let me tell you the the curriculum i was involved in the correction of the
27:24curriculum that curriculum gave an opportunity to all the politicians to say it was obscene and let me
27:32tell you sonal i chaired a committee to turn it around it was ridiculous it had things like
27:39you know some international staff of a un agency sitting in bangkok had made it but she could have
27:46still made it well that's not the issue but i'm giving you his background you know what it said what
27:52um um uh it had men with long penises almost reaching you if you open the page second it said
28:02that um um
28:05um uh having sex can be a way of expressing love now by whom uncle the people who do sexual
28:16abuse it was
28:18so badly done that it gave an opportunity that's why i'm saying we and it was ncrt that came to
28:25my
28:25rescue you know this was i took a whole bunch i was asked to chair a committee to redo the
28:32curriculum
28:32and i'm dependent totally on ncrt people that's why i mentioned in the beginning right and you're
28:41absolutely right ncrt is going to be involved this time and um i am you know having made that since
28:49the government has suffered then and i hope there are people to remember sujata rao in fact was the
28:54chair of the uh of was heading naco and i was thinking we should ask her to write an article
29:00on
29:00that experience and make sure we don't make the same mistake and i'm very happy to be sharing it with
29:06you i never shared it then because we didn't want to um um i didn't want to make sure this
29:13was
29:13but i'm sharing it with you today because there's a lesson from that and i will be sharing this lesson
29:21very extensively so sonal second thing you know after covid let me tell you teachers have realized
29:29how difficult it is to manage young people on many of those which lead to anxiety you know it's not
29:38that the situation didn't exist pre-covid it got exasperated so the teachers for instance let me give
29:44you an example in bihar when i went to the secretary education there he said achya you want me to
29:52roll
29:52out this sex education program to prepare the teachers it's a two-week online course 16 hours total
29:58he said karengi to nahi humari teachers but you can try it out because i know that our young people
30:04are in trouble they need it you know what percentage of teachers finish the course in a state like bihar
30:11i am still shocked 86 percent so the the change in environment is that the teachers realize they see
30:21the suffering and you know for no teacher or a principal of a school or a parent it is
30:27it you know the worst thing is if your child commits you side right so there's been that then number
30:34two so much teenage pregnancy plus now the entire country knows all the misinformation and misogyny
30:43and the horrible sex what should i call it pornography that exists and stimulation that exists on the
30:53internet social media yeah yeah no i think what you're what i'm taking away from this conversation
31:00puram is that a it's a good policy b there should be adoption and three it will not be successful
31:05till the time our teachers don't adopt it till the time they don't have the information you're saying
31:10the environment has changed and even a place like bihar if teachers are willing because one teacher can
31:15change one future one teacher can change the future of so many kids in the class right so that
31:20can really turn around a village or casbah a state right so all of it depends on how much of
31:27knowledge
31:27and empowerment are we really giving in to our teachers and that's going to be key let's hope
31:31let's keep our fingers crossed like in this country some good stuff is happening we're not here to always
31:36highlight the bad stuff let's hope that the execution also follows and is able to see this through
31:41uh for the moment poona for all those anecdotes and for sharing your experience and your beautiful
31:45smile with us thank you so much thank you
31:57all right cutting across to some breaking news coming in and this is regarding action that is
32:01likely to be taken on the movie sutledge not against the platform but actually against the platform
32:06which aired it consideration we are told is being given to take action against intermediaries streaming
32:14that took place of the uncensored film on z5 according to sources screening of the film satloj without
32:21certification is illegal and the fact that z5 gave it that platform even if it was for just about two
32:26days or so just about a weekend there could be some action against them it is the responsibility of the
32:32state government to initiate criminal action against this is what we are hearing himanshu mishra joins us
32:38for more on this story himanshu uh this story uh this story uh this story has made a lot of
32:44uh division in pajab has been banned and the viewership has not been released on the band so
32:51ψب یہ اسکیو پر اور action lekar serkaar کیا کرنا چاہیے
32:55چاہیے دیکھیں بالکل serkaar کا ماننا ہے کہ جو censored نہیں ہیں جن
32:58کو censored board کا certification نہیں ہے ان فلموں کی
33:01screening نہیں ہو اس کے لئے جو شکایت اور کاروازی کرنی چاہیے
33:05جاں screening ہو دیے وہ راجے سرکاروں کی جیبے داری ها ہے
33:08state government کی جیبے داری ہے اور اس کے لیے صاف صاف
33:11I would like to say that without a censor board, without any OTT platform, there is no screening.
33:23That's why G5, which is the OTT platform, which has released the film, can be done.
33:31And the government has to die that without any OTT platform, film, or theories, it cannot be right.
33:45The government is thinking about the need for the IT ministry.
33:48Because the need is also thinking about the need for it.
33:52But Imanchu, the laws as they stand off to date,
33:57OTT platforms don't need to be released on OTT platforms.
34:01So legally, they are not in the wrong.
34:03Z5 is not in the wrong legally.
34:05But G5 is not in the wrong legally.
34:09But because the government has been given a notice,
34:14the government has not done any clarification.
34:17Because this is a religious issue,
34:21Which supports the most sensitive issue.
34:26And all these issues are required.
34:28However in that, the government has requested a question from those few three.
34:33At the same time, from the government,
34:35when it comes to the OTT,
34:36the government has not been released.
34:37The government doesn't clarify the government
34:43and the government doesn't satisfy the reply
34:46so that it should not be seen.
34:48And when the government's fault
34:51if the film is screening,
34:53the government should be doing it.
34:56But Ihmanshu,
34:58I can understand this.
35:00People have seen this film in Z5
35:02as much as you are screening from the Punjab political parties.
35:06There is a film in Gurudwaru.
35:08They are supporting different political parties,
35:11regional parties.
35:13So the government is not able to take action against them.
35:16Some people have seen Z5
35:18only for two days.
35:20As I said,
35:22after the film is banned,
35:23why is it not happening against them?
35:26Because if the government's fault
35:29that the government needs told me
35:31to make decisions on public parties,
35:33the government needs to be taken apart.
35:39If the government needs to be taken apart on trove,
35:54The job of the job is on the state government.
35:57That's why Central Government wants to be in this need.
36:02Whether it's a web series or a movie,
36:06you have to take a census certificates.
36:10Okay, so the government is saying that they have to rethink
36:15how do movies release on the OTT platform.
36:18So it opened a larger debate.
36:19So that's interesting.
36:21Thank you very much for giving all your knowledge.
36:28All right, moving on now.
36:29Amidst the centre's big ethanol push,
36:32one question continues to dominate here on Five Life.
36:35We've been covering the story constantly.
36:37To bring you voices on concerns.
36:40Concerns which are threefold.
36:42If there is more ethanol in your petrol,
36:45why hasn't the price gone down?
36:46If ethanol is causing damage to your engine,
36:50why isn't companies taking cognizant action on behalf of it?
36:56And number three, if it really is reducing mileage,
36:59as has been admitted by the Central Minister Nitin Ghatkari,
37:03why wasn't this told to people beforehand?
37:06But while we ask all those questions,
37:09the one question on the reduction in the vehicle's mileage,
37:13is it and the fact that is it really safe for your engine might have an answer.
37:18This time it's coming from a new study by IIT Kanpur.
37:21Now researchers say that extensive testing found no evidence that E20 or the ethanol 20 mix causes engine damage or
37:30corrosion,
37:31even in existing and older vehicles.
37:33The study also claims that there is no notable impact on fuel efficiency,
37:37with any drop in mileage likely to be below 5%,
37:41and influence more by driving habits, road conditions, vehicle maintenance than by the fuel itself.
37:48The findings broadly support the Centre's push for ethanol blending,
37:52aimed at cutting crude oil imports and also reducing emissions.
37:56But even as IIT Kanpur backs the science behind E20,
37:59the bigger question now is one of implementation.
38:02Are fuel stations uniformly supplying E20?
38:05Are consumers fully aware whether their vehicles are compatible?
38:09And will real-world driving experience really match the controlled laboratory tests?
38:14And then the big question, the timing of this report,
38:17right in the thick of this controversy,
38:19how did IIT Kanpur come up with this report so quickly?
38:22And as India expands into its ethanol programme,
38:26the focus now is constantly shifting,
38:28and discomfort as well on the issue continues to rise.
38:38Moving on now, a shocking case from Bengaluru has raised some fresh concerns over student safety in schools.
38:45A class 7 student is undergoing treatment after allegedly attempting suicide.
38:50With his parents accusing teacher, his class teacher,
38:54for repeated harassment and even physical assault.
38:57They claim the child suffered bruises, was under severe mental distress,
39:02and was pushed to the brink by what they decided as sustained harassment.
39:07The family is now demanding strict action against the teacher's accountability
39:11from the school management and creation of an anti-harassment cell to prevent such instances.
39:18Police has begun a preliminary inquiry and say no conclusion has been reached so far.
39:22The further action will depend on outcome of that investigation.
39:29Sagai, my colleague who's been tracking the story joins us for more details on the story.
39:34Sagai, extremely disturbing.
39:35We first had the story from Jaipur, now this one coming in from Bengaluru as well.
39:40Help us understand what exactly is it that the school authorities are also saying.
39:44We've heard the allegations from the parents, of course.
39:51What we get to learn through our sources is the school has not given any kind of statement
39:55when it comes to this particular incident.
39:57And this is the second incident in less than a week.
39:59Last week we have reported that a 600 girl had committed suicide
40:04because there were baseless allegations against her of stealing and not studying.
40:10And now, this is the second incident where a boy of Samath grade has tried to commit suicide,
40:17but thankfully he's alive, he's undergoing treatment at hospital.
40:21But his allegations are quite clear that his headmaster, principal and secretary of school management,
40:28both of them have harassed him and tortured him.
40:31And he has also said that he was part of the school students bullying gang
40:36and he was being harassed even by the students.
40:39And even informed his parents stating that he will not continue going to that school.
40:44However, the family members have tried to pacify him stating that you are in the seventh grade,
40:50probably once you finish, we'll put you in some other school once you finish the seventh grade.
40:55And they insisted him to continue at the same school.
40:59And now he has taken an extreme step of committing suicide
41:03and parents have registered an FIR and police are investigating further.
41:08Sagai, two cases have come from Bengaluru.
41:11Are you telling us they are both different schools?
41:13It is not the same school.
41:15And that in the second case at least, in the class 7 student case at least,
41:19what we do know is that the parents had prior information
41:23that something was going wrong in the school.
41:30Absolutely. These students are from two different schools.
41:34One in Bengaluru rural, that is in Anekal area.
41:39A sixth grade student died by suicide.
41:42And this is in Jnana Bharati, that is opposite direction of Anekal.
41:47And this boy was studying in St. Philomena School near Jnana Bharati area in Kengeri.
41:54And he was studying in seventh grade at two different schools.
41:57And, but the reasons seem to be quite similar.
42:01Harassment by the students as well as the school management.
42:06And he has also informed his family members that he doesn't want to go to school.
42:12The family was aware about the issue.
42:14They tried to console him saying that once you finish your seventh grade,
42:18probably once you get into eighth grade, that is your highest school,
42:21probably we will shift from this school to another school.
42:23And they convinced him and they sent him.
42:26And end of the day they found out that he tried to commit suicide.
42:30And thankfully he is alive and he is undergoing treatment at the hospital.
42:34All right.
42:35Really tragic on what really is happening on both these stories.
42:38Sagai, thanks so much for joining us with the latest on both those stories.
42:42From Jaipur to Bengaluru.
42:43The crisis in our Indian schools, in our India's education system.
42:48And what really is happening with our kids.
42:50Something that needs a thorough, thorough understanding.
42:55But let's move on from that for a moment.
42:57And let's talk about the monsoon a little bit.
43:00Heavy rainfall across the country is wrecking havoc,
43:03leading to widespread water logging and exposing the claims made by authorities.
43:07Let's give you a glimpse of what's it looking like in different parts of the country.
43:13We'll start with Arunachal Pradesh.
43:15Heavy downpour has caused widespread destruction in Arunachal Pradesh,
43:18damaging over 85,000 hectares of crops and affecting nearly one lakh families.
43:23Heavy rainfall has also damaged several roads, disrupting connecting between towns and cities.
43:30And the government has deployed the STRF personnel to carry out rescue operations in Lower Dibang Valley
43:36and also in other affected areas.
43:40Meanwhile, in Assam and Lakhimpur district over there,
43:43torrential rainfall has triggered a flood-like situation inundating the area and damaging several homes.
43:50Rising flood waters have disrupted normal life,
43:53with residents grappling with widespread damage to property as the monsoon continues to lash the region.
43:58Meanwhile, water levels in the Subhashri River surged after the gates of the NHPC dam were opened,
44:06inundating more than 20 villages along the Lakhimpur-Majoli border.
44:11In Assam, flood waters washed away portions of the under-construction erode there at three locations,
44:18disrupting connectivity.
44:18Residents have urged government to provide immediate assistance.
44:23Meanwhile due to continuous rainfall in Nepal and heavy rain in Muzaffarpur last night,
44:29the water levels of the Bhakmati River have risen.
44:32The Tawzi Gorge and the river is flowing at around 56 metres,
44:37about one metre above the danger mark of 55.
44:40The district administration is on high alert and is continuously monitoring the situation.
44:45Also in the catchment area in Nepal has triggered a steady rise in water levels.
44:50That means in places like Koshi River, in Bihar, in Gantak, in Bhakmati, in Kamla, in Balan, in Gopal Gant
44:59as well,
45:00they have crossed the danger mark by 2 centimetres.
45:03Over 1.8 lakh Q6 of water have been released from the Walmiki Nagar-Gantak Baraj in west Chhamparan.
45:11And river levels continue to rise.
45:14Authorities have issued an alert for low-lying areas as well.
45:21But talking about Nepal, something else is really happening there.
45:24From Gen Z icon to a leader facing Gen Z anger now.
45:28Just months after sweeping to power,
45:31Nepal Prime Minister Balen Shah is confronting his biggest political challenge yet.
45:35As a tragic death has sparked street protests,
45:38and demand for accountability and questions over whether the youth wave that elected him
45:44is now beginning to turn against him.
45:55Just three months ago, Balen Shah rode a Gen Z wave to power.
46:04Now, just months into office, the Nepal Prime Minister is facing growing anger.
46:10The slogans have changed.
46:12The crowds have changed.
46:14But the streets of Kathmandu are once again full.
46:23The spark, the death of 25-year-old ride-share driver Ganesh Nepali,
46:29who set himself on fire after a confrontation with municipal police over parking enforcement.
46:35His death has become the rallying point for a wider public anger.
46:39Protesters say this is no longer about one tragic incident.
46:44They accuse the government of administrative apathy, excessive enforcement and failing ordinary citizens.
46:53The protests have snowballed into demands for accountability.
46:57The irony is hard to miss.
47:03Prime Minister, who rose to power on the back of a youth movement,
47:07is now facing a rebellion led by many of those very young supporters.
47:14..ind plugins from
47:15it were found in the sentence.
47:20The waiting commentary is escalated in two years now.
47:54Balen Shah remains silent, but the streets are speaking.
47:58The big question, is this outrage over one death or the first crack in the Gen Z wave that swept
48:05him to power?
48:06Bureau Report, India Today.
48:28So the craze for looking young is not limited to women.
48:32Men also are chasing youth and chasing the elixir of youth and some of them feel that testosterone may be
48:38it.
48:39But I strongly recommend against uncontrolled and unsupervised use of this.
48:44When you are using testosterone for a long time in high doses, your testes can't produce sperm then.
48:50If you are using these drugs for a long time and then you stop them suddenly, then the body can't
48:54produce testosterone for some time.
48:56So your sexual function goes down drastically.
48:59You're not able to produce sperm for fertility.
49:02I have people undergoing divorces, well-known people who underwent a divorce for this reason, because of abuse of testosterone
49:09-like substances.
49:10And then once you go off it, then you're not able to perform and there's no sperm count.
49:17It's all gone.
