										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p><strong>KOTA: </strong>A 21-year-old medical education aspirant from Bihar allegedly committed suicide here after failing to get desired marks in the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) in two successive attempts, officials said on Saturday. Roshan (21), a resident of Samastipur district, was found dead Thursday evening by his brother Suman who also prepares for competitive exams in Kota but resides separately, they said.</p>



<p>Police said no suicide note has been recovered from Roshan&#8217;s room in Mahaveer Nagar Police station area, but they believe he hanged himself from the ceiling fan apparently because he failed to qualify NEET-UG with good marks even at his second attempt. The NEET results were announced earlier this week.</p>



<p>Roshan and his brother Suman had been preparing for the entrance exam and living at separate locations in Mahaveer Nagar area, circle officer of the area DSP Harshraj Singh told. Roshan had gone to his uncles&#8217; place in Delhi and returned to Kota on Thursday morning after which he spoke to his mother, Singh said.</p>



<p>Later in the day, when his parents called, Roshan did not respond after which they asked Suman to go to his PG and check. When Suman reached there, he found his brother&#8217;s body hanging from the ceiling fan in his room on the 3rd floor of the building, the CO said.</p>



<p>He was rushed to a hospital where he was declared brought dead, the officer added. Roshan had been preparing for the NEET?UG for two years in Kota, and he scored 400 marks out of 720 in this edition of the NEET-UG, the officer said.</p>



<p>Police said they have lodged a case under section 174 of CrPC (enquire and report on suicide) to probe the incident. They said his family reached Kota Friday afternoon and the body was handed over to them after postmortem. This is the 12th case student suicide in Kota in the past six months. At least 15 students took to the extreme step in 2022.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p><strong>New Delhi:&nbsp;</strong>Congress’ refusal to attend the first opposition parties meeting called by Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on June 12 has started a blame game between the two sides with the Janata Dal-United leader blaming the former after the meeting was put off. Talking to reporters, Kumar said the June 12 meeting had to be deferred due to the refusal by Congress` top leadership as it asked for another date as the top leaders of many like-minded parties were not in a position to turn up for the deliberation.</p>



<p>The remarks came on the day when Nitish Kumar faced questions over the under-construction bridge collapse on river Ganga on Sunday in Bihar, while he was trying to bridge the gap between the opposition parties ahead of the crucial 2024 Lok Sabha polls.</p>



<p>Speaking to the media here, Congress` Bihar in-charge Bhakta Charan Das said, &#8220;I spoke to Nitish Kumar and Tejashwi Yadav on Sunday. He wants all the parties` chiefs who are capable of taking the decision to attend the meeting on June 12. This was not happening, so it has been decided to speak to everyone and arrange a meeting after June 22.&#8221;</p>



<p>The Congress leader`s remarks came hours after the Bihar Chief Minister speaking to the media in Patna, said, &#8220;Except for the Congress, the majority of the opposition political parties had agreed to meet in Patna on June 12.</p>



<p>&#8220;The Congress leadership was not comfortable with the venue. Since, there was no point in meeting without the grand old party, I asked him to discuss the party and then finalise a date. We will match the date with every opposition political party and then decide about the meeting. For now, the scheduled meeting on June 12 stands postponed,&#8221; Nitish Kumar said.</p>



<p>The JD-U leader had called the meeting of like-minded parties on June 12 in Patna after discussing with the top Congress leadership and also after meeting and convincing the top leaders of several parties in last one and half month.</p>



<p>Kumar was also conveyed of the Congress leader Rahul Gandhi`s return from the US on June 10, after which the date of June 12 was finalised and the JD-U leader invited several leaders like Akhilesh Yadav, Mamata Banerjee, Sharad Pawar, Uddhav Thackeray among others who gave their go ahead to attend the meeting.</p>



<p>However, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK leader MK Stalin then cited his engagements on June 12 and asked to postpone the meeting for another date.</p>



<p>Following Stalin`s request, Congress also came forward with the same proposal citing the personal engagements of party President Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi and asked to convene the meeting on June 22 or some other dates.</p>



<p>This demand was also echoed by CPI-M leader Sitaram Yechury. Thus, looking at the request of several leaders meeting has been postponed.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p><strong>New Delhi:&nbsp;</strong>A day after an under-construction bridge over the Ganga river collapsed in Bihar&#8217;s Bhagalpur district, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Monday said that &#8216;it should have been stronger&#8217;. Speaking to reporters, Nitish said that the bridge is not being &#8216;constructed correctly&#8217; which is why it is collapsing over and over again. A portion of the bridge, which was supposed to connect Bihar&#8217;s Khagaria district with Bhagalpur, earlier collapsed on April 30 last year.</p>



<p>&#8220;I have instructed officials to take strict action,&#8221; Nitish Kumar said.</p>



<p>No casualties or injuries were reported in the incident that took place on Sunday evening and was caught on camera by some bystanders. The bridge was reportedly being constructed at a cost of more than Rs 1,700 crore and was supposed to have been completed by November 2019.</p>



<p>The bridge collapse prompted Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav to hold a hurried press conference.</p>



<p>&#8220;It may be recalled that a portion of this bridge had collapsed on April 30 last year. We had, thereafter, approached IIT-Roorkee, which is esteemed for its expertise in construction matters, to conduct a study. It is yet to come up with a final report but experts who had studied the structure had informed us that there were serious defects,&#8221; Yadav said at the presser.</p>



<p>Last year, a portion of this bridge had given away in a thunderstorm. It was an incident which was widely talked about and I strongly raised it in my capacity as the then Leader of the Opposition, he added.</p>



<p>Yadav&nbsp;said that upon coming to power, his government ordered an inquiry and sought an expert opinion. He disclosed that &#8216;many structural defects&#8217; have been pointed out by experts and that they have already pulled down many portions which have been flagged as particularly vulnerable.</p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Bihar bridge collapse: BJP demands Nitish Kumar&#8217;s resignation</h4>



<p>Bihar Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Samrat Choudhary came out with a statement demanding the resignation of Nitish Kumar, who had snapped ties with the saffron party in August last year. </p>



<p>&#8220;Sub-standard materials were used for the construction of the bridge. The CM is least bothered about the development of Bihar&#8230; He is busy on his tour. He must resign from his post after this incident,&#8221; Choudhary said.</p>



<p>Fellow BJP leader Syed Shahnawaz Hussain, a former Bhagalpur MP, also blamed the mishap on &#8216;corruption&#8217; and demanded a high-level inquiry into the incident.</p>



<p>He also alleged that the incident &#8216;has put a question mark on construction works being undertaken across the state, many of which have been awarded to the same contractor&#8217;.</p>

<p><strong>Patna: </strong>An under-construction bridge over the Ganga river collapsed in Bihar on Sunday, portions of which were deliberately destroyed in a planned fashion under expert advice as it had design flaws, claimed state government officials. The bridge was supposed to connect Khagaria district with Bhagalpur.</p>



<p>Images of the bridge collapse that took place in Khagaria evoked immediate criticisms from the opposition, prompting Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav and Additional Chief Secretary of Road Construction Department, Pratyay Amrit, to hold a hurried press conference.</p>

<p>&#8220;It may be recalled that a portion of this bridge had collapsed on April 30 last year. We had, thereafter, approached IIT-Roorkee, which is esteemed for its expertise in construction matters, to conduct a study. It is yet to come up with a final report but experts who had studied the structure had informed us that there were serious defects,&#8221; Yadav said at the press conference.</p>



<p>Amrit, who took over, added, &#8220;It was decided that we must not take any chance and wait for a final report. So we went ahead with pulling down parts of the bridge.&#8221;<br />Once the final report comes, which is expected shortly, the state government would contemplate action like lodging of FIR and blacklisting the company which was awarded the contract, he said.</p>



<p>The bridge was said to have involved an estimated cost of Rs 1,700 crore.</p>



<p>&#8220;Last year, a portion of this bridge had given away in a thunderstorm. It was an incident which was widely talked about and I strongly raised it in my capacity as the then Leader of the Opposition. Upon coming to power, we ordered an inquiry and sought expert opinion,&#8221; said Yadav, in an apparent riposte to the BJP, now in opposition, which sought the CM&#8217;s resignation over the issue.</p>



<p>Yadav disclosed that &#8220;many structural defects&#8221; have been pointed out by experts and &#8220;we have already pulled down many portions which have been flagged as particularly vulnerable. Today&#8217;s incident confirms our worst apprehensions&#8221;.</p>



<p>No casualties or injuries were reported in the incident that took place in the evening and was caught on camera by some bystanders.</p>



<p>As media outlets beamed the video footage, state BJP president Samrat Choudhary came out with a statement demanding the resignation of Nitish Kumar, who had snapped ties with the saffron party in August last year.</p>



<p>Fellow BJP leader Syed Shahnawaz Hussain, a former Bhagalpur MP, also came out with a statement blaming the mishap on &#8220;corruption&#8221; and demanding a &#8220;high-level inquiry&#8221; into the incident.</p>



<p>He also alleged that the incident &#8220;has put a question mark on construction works being undertaken across the state, many of which have been awarded to the same contractor&#8221;.</p>



<p>Amrit also said at the press conference that soon after the news of the incident was received, he was summoned by the chief minister who &#8220;sought a detailed report on the mishap and issued strict instructions for strong action against those who might be held responsible&#8221;.</p>



<p>The bridge was being constructed at a cost of more than Rs 1, 700 crore and it was supposed to have been completed by November, 2019.</p>



<p>However, Yadav asserted, &#8220;This bridge is of great importance for north Bihar where connectivity will greatly improve once it begins to function. We are committed to completing the project after setting right everything that has been wrong.&#8221;</p>



<p>Yadav&#8217;s Rashtriya Janata Dal, meanwhile, came out with a tweet pointing out that much of the construction took place &#8220;during the tenures of Mangal Pandey, Nand Kishore Yadav and Nitin Nabin&#8221; as road construction ministers and asked whether the BJP would, therefore, take the blame.</p>

<p>New Delhi: Language is amazing because it allows people to communicate in different ways and sometimes astonishes them with words they hear or read. We feel a connection when a foreigner speaks our native language perfectly. We wonder how they learned a language that was unfamiliar to them. In 2020, a video went viral of a Japanese girl speaking Bengali fluently. Recently, content creator Prashant Kumar posted a video on Instagram where the Korean man named Charlie can be seen talking to him in Hindi. Charlie is exploring Patna city as he returned to the city after three years and is amazed to see many positive changes. Patna is cleaner than before and he feels like he is in New York when he sees the Gandhi Setu Bridge.Then they both go to a fair in Patna.</p>

<p>Social media users are amazed by the Korean guy&#8217;s proficiency in Hindi. This video of Charlie talking in Bihari accent is becoming quite viral on social media. This video has been viewed more than one lakh times. One user wrote, &#8216;A person who lives life freely, lots of love.&#8217; Similarly, another wrote, &#8216;Believe it or not, but you were a Bihari in your previous birth. Loved it.</p>



<p><strong>How Charlie Learnt Fluent Hindi ?</strong></p>



<p>Interestingly, Charlie has been living in Patna since he was 2 years old. In one of his videos on Instagram, he spoke about his upbringing in Indian culture. He wrote, &#8220;From the age of one year till the age of 20, I grew up in Patna, the capital of Bihar. I used to speak Hindi naturally and adopted an Indian accent while speaking English.&#8221; Charlie further said, &#8220;As a child, I did not like my accent and I used to feel shy and uncomfortable to speak English.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Patna: Amid Opposition&#8217;s call for boycotting the inauguration of the new Parliament building, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar Saturday asserted that there is &#8220;no need&#8221; for a new Parliament building. The new Parliament building is an attempt to write a new history by those who had no contribution in the freedom struggle, he told reporters here. Kumar also expressed dismay over President Droupadi and Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankar, who is also the chairman of Rajya Sabha, not being invited to the function. JD(U), of which he is a senior leader, has announced that it will boycott the inauguration of the new Parliament building on Sunday. The party will observe a day-long fast here on the day to protest the inauguration of the new Parliament building by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.</p>



<p>&#8220;There is no need for a new Parliament building&#8230; Those who had no contribution to the country&#8217;s fight for independence are trying to distort history. It is quite surprising that the President of India and the Vice-President, who is the chairman of Rajya Sabha, have not been invited to the inauguration programme,&#8221; Kumar, who had been a cabinet minister in the Atal Bihari Vajpayee, told reporters here.</p>



<p>&#8220;JD(U) strongly holds that the president is an important part of the country&#8217;s parliamentary system. As the president, Droupadi Murmu holds the highest constitutional post in the country and she should have been invited by the Narendra Modi government to inaugurate the new Parliament. Building,&#8221; the party&#8217;s state president Umesh Singh Kushwaha told reporters here on Saturday.</p>



<p>Asked about his decision to skip the Niti Aayog meeting in Delhi on Saturday, Kumar said, ?It was in the morning and I had other engagements in Patna during the day&#8230; Therefore I could not go to Delhi. Had the meeting been held in the afternoon, I would have attended it. I sent a list of ministers and officials who could attend the meeting, but there was no response from the Centre. So no representative from Bihar is attending today&#8217;s meeting&#8221;.</p>



<p>On the Reserve Bank of India&#8217;s decision to withdraw Rs 2000 denomination banknotes from circulation after September 30, 2023, Kumar said, &#8220;First one thousand currency notes were withdrawn and now Rs 2000&#8230; I fail to understand their intentions&#8221;.</p>



<p>To questions on a likely meeting of non-BJP parties here to discuss opposition unity before the coming Lok Sabha elections, he said, &#8220;We will talk about it later&#8221;.
