IAS officer, her husband, and personal security officer booked for attempt to murder in Jalandhar
An FIR has been registered in the case where a plot owner was shot by the personal security officer (PSO) of IAS officer Babita Kaler on Saturday morning in a posh locality near PIMS Hospital in Jalandhar. The FIR was lodged late Saturday night at Police Station Division No. 7. The FIR names senior IAS officer Babita Kaler, her husband and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Stephen Kaler, and Sukhkaran Singh, the PSO provided by the Punjab Government. The case has been registered under Sections 109 (attempt to murder), 115 (2) (voluntarily causing hurt), and 61 (2) (criminal conspiracy) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and relevant sections of the Arms Act. The victim, Harpreet Singh, suffered a bullet injury in his leg. The police have arrested Sukhkaran Singh and taken possession of the weapon used in the incident. A recommendation has also been sent to the police department to suspend Sukhkaran Singh. The police will soon present him in court to seek remand for interrogation. Sources said the police were preparing to issue notices to Babita and Stephen Kaler, asking them to join the investigation. Harinder Singh Gill, Assistant Deputy Commissioner of Police, stated they will determine why the shooting occurred — whether it was necessary or done under pressure – during the interrogation. IAS officer Babita Kaler and her husband Stephen Kaler, who live in the upscale Baradari area, reportedly had a dispute with the owners of the adjacent plot over the dumping of soil. During an altercation, Babita Kaler's PSO Sukhkaran Singh shot the brother of the plot owner. The bullet was fired using a government-issued firearm. AAP leader Stephen Kaler stated that the people who came to dump soil were asked to speak to the plot owner. He said he facilitated the conversation and then went inside the house. However, during this time, the individuals who had come to dump the soil allegedly began arguing with the PSO and used abusive language. They also reportedly tried to assault him, after which the PSO fired in self-defence.

Rs 25K fine on Cuttack ADM for delaying Top Ramen noodles case
CUTTACK: The Orissa High Court on Friday imposed a fine of Rs 25,000 on the additional district magistrate-cum-adjudicating authority, Cuttack, for the inordinate delay in adjudicating a case against Indo Nissin Foods Pvt. Ltd, a multinational fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) company, over alleged food safety violations related to a popular brand of noodles Top Ramen. The case was instituted on the basis of a report submitted by the Food Safety Officer following testing of samples of a particular brand of noodles seized from the depot of the company in Cuttack in 2015. The report raised concerns over the presence of monosodium glutamate (MSG), prompting initiation of adjudication proceedings. The company filed a petition before the ADM on November 1, 2016, seeking dismissal of the proceedings on the ground that it was arbitrary, unlawful, and in violation of the order issued by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) on March 31, 2016. The FSSAI had clarified that glutamate occurs naturally in several foods, and current analytical methods cannot conclusively distinguish between naturally occurring and added MSG. Enforcement, it added, should only proceed when a product explicitly claims 'No MSG' or 'No Added MSG' and MSG is later detected.
