        "The FATWA has no place in Independent INDIA and can't be used to punish innocent"  the Supreme Court on Monday 7th July ruled. "A Shariat court, issuing fatwa and order against a person who is not before it, has no sanction of law and has no legal status. But if people still want to approach these courts, it's their will," The apex court said that "Islamic judges, who interpret religious law, could only rule when individuals submitted voluntarily to them and their decisions, or fatwas, were not legally binding.  Some fatwas may be wise and may be for general good also. People in this country are wise enough. If two Muslims agree for mediation, who can stay it? It is a blend of arbitration and mediation, but it is not binding on anyone including the person who had asked for it"         The petitioner a Delhi based lawyer, Vishwa Lochan Madan filed a petition in 2005, challenging the legality of parallel courts run by institut

          Polavaram Project is a multipurpose irrigation project which has been accorded national project status by the then UPA Central government. National river linking project which works under the aegis of the Indian Ministry of Water Resources was designed to overcome the deficit in water in the country.  As a part of this plan the Godavari River basin is considered as a surplus one, while the Krishna River basin is considered to be a deficit one. Based on the estimated water requirements in 2025, the study recommended that seizable surplus water was to be transferred from the Godavari basin to the Krishna River basin.         In 1980, the Chief Minister of United Andhra Pradesh Tanguturi Anjaiah laid the foundation stone for the project stayed idle until 2004 when Y.S.

           The Ganges is the most sacred river to Hindus. It is worshiped as Goddess Ganga in Hinduism. Ganges which is the life line of millions of people and great religious significance is being polluted by both Domestic sewage and Industrial pollutants that are being dumped in to the river untreated.  In Varanasi rivers "Varuna" and "Asi" have been polluted beyond recognition that now they flow not rivers but just torrents sewage and waste water mixing at the start and end of the city Varanasi. The Ganga action plan launched in 1986 by the Govt of India achieved any success despite expenditure of over Five billion rupees. This has been a major failure due to Corruption, lack of technical expertise good environmental planning and support from religious authorities.         River Bhagirathi and river Alakananda originate in Garhwal Himalayas and join at Devaprayaga to form river Ganga. River Ganga travels through Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand a

         Telangana came in to existence as the 29th state of India today. People all over Telangana are celebrating the realization of the decades long dream.. For the first time out side Hindi and Bengali speaking areas-two states speaking same language have been created. History will analyze why did this Telugu state break down? What are the lessons for the future? The creation of Telangana has ended a nearly 50 years of long struggle for separate state. Chandrasekhar Rao who led the movement for a separate state of Telangana since 2001,has taken oath as new Chief Minister of the state.        In 1956 Congress government in Center decided to merge Andhra which was carved out of Madras state with the Telugu speaking areas of the dominion of the deposed Nizam state of Hyderabad.
