MP CM does ‘Bhoomi Pujan’ of medicity
Mohan Yadav performed the 'Bhoomi Pujan' for the state’s first medicity at Ujjain to be built at an estimated cost of Rs 592 crore.
The house of the man accused of raping a teenage girl near Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh is set to be demolished due to alleged illegal construction. Last week, the entire nation was shaken by the distressing videos of a 15-year-old girl, partially unclothed and bleeding, desperately seeking help from door to door.
The accused, Bharat Soni, an auto-rickshaw driver, was arrested last Thursday and is presently in custody awaiting trial. His family had been residing in a house built on government land for several years, according to the Ujjain Municipal Corporation.
Municipal Commissioner Roshan Singh clarified that since the land is government-owned, there is no requirement for a prior notice for its demolition. The municipal authorities, in collaboration with the Madhya Pradesh police, are scheduled to take action tomorrow. The capture of Bharat followed a lengthy investigation that involved scrutinizing footage from nearly 700 CCTV cameras.

“Around 30-35 individuals were engaged in the investigation. No one rested for three or four days.” Ajay Verma, a senior police officer said emphasizing the relentless effort put into the case.
The disturbing incident unfolded on September 26 when videos began circulating on social media. It portrayed a young girl in a pitiable state, bleeding and in dire need of help. A CCTV camera, located on Badnagar Road, about 15 kilometers from Ujjain, captured the heart-wrenching scenes of the girl. She was draped in tattered clothing and knocking on doors, desperately seeking assistance.
Shockingly, the footage depicted people turning her away, one after another, a sight that sent shockwaves reverberating throughout the country.
