This is the Catch Up on 3 Things for the Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.
It’s the 14th of May and here are today's headlines.
The death toll after the collapse of a billboard in Mumbai’s Ghatkopar rose to 14 this morning. 74 people have been reported injured, among them, 44 are still hospitalized, with one person in critical condition. 31 individuals have been discharged so far. The billboard was located beside a petrol pump on the Eastern Express Highway and collapsed yesterday after gusty winds and season’s first spell of rainfall lashed the city. Most of the victims were either refuelling or seeking refuge from the rain when the disaster struck.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi Tuesday today filed his nomination papers at the District Magistrate’s office in Varanasi for the Lok Sabha elections. The PM started his day by offering prayers at Dasaswamedh Ghat in the constituency, following which he visited the Kal Bhairav temple. The Varanasi seat will go to polls in the seventh and last phase of the Lok Sabha elections on 1st of June.
The Enforcement Directorate, probing the excise policy case, told the Delhi High Court today that the Aam Aadmi Party will be named as a co-accused in the case in its next prosecution complaint. The submission was made by the ED counsel while the High Court was hearing former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia’s bail petition in the money laundering case pertaining to the excise policy. Opposing Sisodia’s bail plea, the probe agency said concerted efforts are being made by the accused to delay trial in the liquor policy case.
The Supreme Court today refused to entertain a plea seeking to bar Prime Minister Narendra Modi from elections for allegedly making hate speeches and violating the Model Code of Conduct during campaigning. A bench of Justices Vikram Nath and S C Sharma asked the petitioner to approach the authorities concerned for the redressal of the grievance. The petitioner withdrew the plea and the matter was dismissed as withdrawn.
The Supreme Court today reserved its order on the contempt notice issued to yoga guru Ramdev, his aide Balkrishna and Patanjali Ayurved Ltd in the misleading advertisements case. A bench of Justices Hima Kohli and Ahsanuddin Amanullah noted that the counsel appearing for the firm has sought time to file an affidavit indicating the steps being taken to recall the advertisements of those products of Patanjali whose licences have been suspended. The bench said the affidavit has to be filed within three weeks.
