India now has 25,202 public charging stations for EVs: Minister
As many as 25,202 public charging stations for electric vehicles (EVs) have been installed in the country to date, the government said on Friday.
The Parliament on Wednesday erupted over a threat to West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee with opposition members accusing the government of not protecting the country's women.
"Government must take steps for protection of women. You are protecting cows but atrocities are happening to women," Samajwadi Party MP Jaya Bachchan said in Rajya Sabha.

The uproar in the Parliament came in the wake of a Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) leader Yogesh Varshney threatening West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee by announcing a reward of Rs.11 lakh for her head.

The threat to the West Bengal CM followed a lathicharge incident by police at Birbhum district on Hanuman Jayanti.
“When I saw the video [of the police action], I only had one thought…that if anyone gets me Mamata Banerjee’s head, I will give them 11 lakh.” Varshney was quoted as saying by a news agency.
