https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-60013807 Nathuram Godse was a high-school drop out and worked as a tailor On the evening of 30 January 1948, Nathuram Vinayak Godse shot Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi dead at point-blank range as India's most venerated leader emerged from a prayer meeting in the capital, Delhi. The 38-year-old zealot was a member of Hindu Mahasabha, a right-wing party. It had accused Gandhi of having betrayed Hindus by being too pro-Muslim and soft on Pakistan. They even blamed him for the bloodshed that marked Partition, which saw India and Pakistan created after independence from Britain in 1947. A trial court sentenced Godse to death a year after the assassination. He was executed in November 1949, after the high court upheld the verdict. (An accomplice, Narayan Apte, was also given the death sentence, and six others were sentenced to life in prison.) Why Indians are debating a mercy plea from 1911 Rare pictures of the last 10 years of Gandhi's life Before joining the Hindu Mahasabha, Godse was a member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (National Volunteer Organisation) or RSS, the ideological fountainhead of India's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself is a long-time member of the 95-year-old mothership of Hindu nationalism. The RSS plays a deeply influential part in his government and outside. For decades, the RSS has shunned Godse who murdered the "Father of the Nation", as Indians love to call their greatest icon. Yet, a group of Hindu right-wingers in recent years have lionised Godse and openly celebrated Gandhi's assassination. Last year a firebrand BJP MP described Godse as a "patriot". All this has incensed most Indians, but the RSS has stuck to its position: Godse had quit the organisation long before he killed Gandhi. A new book now claims that this is not quite true. Godse, a shy high-school dropout, worked as tailor and sold fruit before joining the Mahasabha, where he edited its newspaper. During the trial, he took more than five hours to read out a 150-paragraph statement in court. naval guard escorting the coffin at Gandhi's funeral procession He said there was "no conspiracy" to kill Gandhi, thus trying to absolve his accomplices of any wrongdoing. He rejected the charge that he had acted under the guidance of his leader, Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, who birthed the idea of Hindutva or Hindu-ness. (Although Savarkar was exonerated of all charges, critics believe that the radical right-winger who loathed Gandhi was connected to the assassination.) Godse also told the court that he had broken with the RSS long before he killed Gandhi. Dhirendra Jha, author of Gandhi's Assassin, writes that Godse - the son of a postal worker father and a homemaker mother - was a "prominent worker" of the RSS. There was no "evidence" of him being expelled from the organisation. A statement by Godse recorded before the trial "never mentions his departure from the RSS after he became a member of the Hindu Mahasabha". However, his court statement said he "joined the Hindu Mahasabha after leaving RSS but remains silent on when exactly he did so". "This was a claim that has remained one of the most debated aspects of Godse's life," Mr Jha says. He believes "pro-RSS writers" have used this to "quietly push the notion that Godse had already broken with the RSS and joined the Hindu Mahasabha almost a decade before he killed Gandhi". American researcher JA Curran Jr claimed that Godse joined the RSS in 1930 and quit four years later, but provided no evidence for his assertion. Mr Jha writes that in a statement made to the police before the beginning of his trial, Godse admitted that he was working for both organisations simultaneously. Family members have also joined the debate in the past. Gopal Godse, Nathuram's brother, who died in 2005, had said his brother "did not leave the RSS". Separately, a grand nephew of Godse told a journalist in 2015 that Godse joined the RSS in 1932, and was "neither ex

The entire country is set to be placed under the highest level of Covid restrictions after an outbreak of the Omicron variant. The restrictions include a cap of 100 vaccinated people at events and mask wearing in shops and on public transport. New Zealand has recorded 15,104 Covid cases and 52 deaths. Ms Ardern confirmed to reporters on Sunday that her wedding to television host Clarke Gayford would not be going ahead. "I am no different to, dare I say it, thousands of other New Zealanders who have had much more devastating impacts felt by the pandemic, the most gutting of which is the inability to be with a loved one sometimes when they are gravely ill," she said. "That will far, far outstrip any sadness I experience," she added. New Zealand to reopen to vaccinated visitors Men caught sneaking KFC into lockdown-hit Auckland The new restrictions come into force at midnight on Sunday local time (11:00 GMT). It comes after a cluster of nine Omicron cases were confirmed. A family who had attended a wedding in Auckland tested positive after returning home to the South Island. A flight attendant also contracted the virus. Officials say the level of community transmission from the group is expected to be high. Indoor hospitality venues and events will have their capacity capped to 100 vaccinated people or 25 if vaccine passes are not being used. This also includes gyms and weddings, the New Zealand Herald reports. Students including year four and above will be required to wear masks in school. New Zealand has operated under strict Covid rules since the start of the pandemic, allowing it to keep deaths to a minimum. It was one of the first countries in the world to close its borders and quashed earlier outbreaks with lockdowns. But since the emergence of the Delta variant, Ms Ardern has switched from a total Covid elimination strategy to pushing for higher vaccination rates and treating the virus as endemic. It's thought that about 94% of the country's po[CENSORED]tion over the age of 12 is fully vaccinated and 56% of those have had their boosters. Last year, the country announced plans to reopen borders as part of a staged reopening. Foreign travellers will be the last group to be granted entry into the country, from 30 April

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-60079770 The students say they are not allowed to attend class. A debate over the hijab - a headscarf worn by Muslim women - has caused a stand-off at a women's college in the southern Indian state of Karnataka. Six teenage students - at a government-run pre-university college, equivalent to a high school - have alleged that they have been barred from classes for weeks because they insist on wearing a hijab. The college says it has only asked the students to remove the hijab inside the classroom - they can still wear it around the campus. The six girls wear the college uniform - a loose tunic with pants and a shawl - but say they should also be allowed to cover their hair. "We have a few male teachers. We need to cover our hair before men. That is why we wear a hijab," Almas AH, one of the students, told BBC Hindi. It's not unusual to see women wearing hijabs and burkas - which cover the face and body - in India, where public displays of faith are commonplace. But an increasingly polarised atmosphere in recent years has led to minorities - Muslims and Christians - feeling threatened. Beaten and humiliated for being a Muslim in India The women facing rape threats on Clubhouse And this particular row is unfolding in Udupi, one of three districts in Karnataka's communally sensitive coastal belt. Commentators often describe the region - a stronghold of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's right-wing BJP - as a laboratory for majoritarian Hindu politics. The BJP is also in power in Karnataka. Repeated instances of vigilantism and hate speech against Muslims in the area have deepened religious faultlines and led to the rise of vocal minority-led groups that assert their right to religious freedom. In this case, for instance, the college said the issue is further complicated by the involvement of Campus Front of India (CFI), the student wing of the radical Islamic group, Po[CENSORED]r Front of India. Ms Almas said she was not a member of CFI but contacted the organisation when the college stopped them from attending classes. The college is now at the centre of a storm. I have called for a report on the issue," Karnataka state education minister BC Nagesh said. "It's basically politics. All this is happening because elections are due next year," Mr Nagesh added, referring to attempts by the Po[CENSORED]r Front of India's political wing to gain traction in the coastal belt. Ms Almas said when they tried to wear the hijab in their first year at the college, they were told that their parents had signed a form that prevented them from doing so. The pandemic then kept students away from college for months - during this time, said Ms Almas, they realised that the form only mentioned a compulsory uniform and said nothing about a hijab. At the end of December, when they returned to college wearing headscarves, they were not allowed to enter the classroom, she said. College principal Rudre Gowda alleged that the six women were deliberately creating problems and that the rest of the Muslim students - around 70 - had no objections to the rule. He said that initially, around a dozen women wanted to wear the hijab, but the number reduced after he spoke to their parents. "All we are saying is that when their classes begin, they should remove the hijab," he said.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59952851 Yati Narsinghanand Saraswati heads a powerful temple in Uttar Pradesh state Who is the militant Hindu priest who has been arrested over a vitriolic speech he gave against Muslims last month? Yati Narsinghanand Saraswati, the 58-year-old head of the powerful Dasna Devi temple in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh (UP), was one of several right-wing Hindu leaders who spoke at an event in Haridwar city, where they openly called for violence against Muslims. Videos of the event travelled swiftly on social media, sparking a flurry of shocked and angry reactions, an open letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and police complaints from concerned citizens. The Supreme Court is hearing a petition demanding an independent inquiry into the event. Mr Narsinghanand is no stranger to controversy. For months, he has been accused of making deeply offensive remarks against women and minorities. His videos and words reach millions on social media, spawning an army of right-wing followers. He has reportedly called Muslims "demons", threatened to "eliminate" them and said he is striving to create an India "free of Islam". In September, police in UP registered three cases against him for allegedly insulting women after a video of him describing female politicians as mistresses of their male counterparts went viral. Mr Narsinghanand is already facing charges in more than 20 different cases, according to his lawyer, Maa Chetnanand Saraswati, who is also a priest at the Dasna Devi temple.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-60020410 Collarwali was a fierce predator but also known to be friendly India's "super mum" tigress was no ordinary big cat. One of the most famous tigers in the country, Collarwali died over the weekend aged 16. She played a big role in changing the fortunes of the sanctuary where she lived - Pench Tiger Reserve in the central state of Madhya Pradesh. So named because of the radio collar she wore, she gave birth to 29 cubs in eight litters over her lifetime - a "prolific" legacy, according to one expert. She became one of India's best-known tigers after starring in the BBC Wildlife documentary, Spy in the Jungle, which tracked the lives of four tiger cubs over two years. The documentary sparked a surge in visitors to the park, many of whom would ask after Collarwali and her charismatic mother, said Prabir Patil, a naturalist whose association with Pench began in 2004. Collarwali died on Saturday evening due to complications caused by old age. Collarwali was fitted with her radio collar in 2008 Naturalists, forest officers and wildlife photographers speak fondly of an animal they had watched grow up in the reserve - the same forests that are believed to have inspired Rudyard Kipling's classic, The Jungle Book. She was born in 2005 as T-15 - her mother, known as "badi mata" or "big mother" was also a famous tigress. Her father's name was T-1. Later, she was called Collarwali - the one with a collar - when she became the first tigress in the park to be fitted with a radio collar, which allowed her to be studied for some years. She was also affectionately called "mataram" or "respected mother" by wildlife lovers - a name she earned over her life. Collarwali was a familiar face at PenchCollarwali was a familiar face at Pench "Before Collarwali was born, tiger sightings were rare at Pench. But she soon became the most-sighted tigress here," Mr Patil said. Conservationist Vivek Menon calls her the "face of Pench", crediting her unusual "temperament that allowed so many visitors and photographers to document her and her cubs". Collarwali rarely disappointed Pench visitors, said Mohammed Rafique Sheikh, a naturalist who grew up on the doorstep of the reserve. "She was a friendly animal who would come very close to tourist vehicles without any fear," said Mr Sheikh, who has guided hundreds of tourists through the sanctuary. India is home to more than 70% of the world's tigers - numbers had been in decline but have now risen to 2,976, according to the most recent government estimate. Every year, thousands of tourists head to the 51 tiger reserves dotted across India, hoping to catch a glimpse of the majestic animal. Collarwali was cremated after people paid their respects She did that the day before her death too, when she was "so weak she could barely walk", according to a witness. Collarwali was cremated on Sunday in an open ground in the reserve after staff, naturalists and local villagers offered flowers and prayers. A video obituary made by reserve staff opens with footage of her reclining in the grass, comfortable in her home, as the words Beloved Collarwali appear on screen. That is how the people who loved her will remember her. While Collarwali was a tiger like no other, Dr Mishra said they weren't mourning her - instead, they wanted to celebrate her legacy. "She lived a full, happy life," Mr Sheikh said. "We are saddened by her death, but she will live in our hearts."

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59948645 Siddharth mainly appears in southern films An Indian actor has apologised to badminton star Saina Nehwal after his "sexist" tweet to her kicked up a social media storm. Siddharth, who uses only one name, said he was trying to make a "rude joke" in response to a tweet by Nehwal. But his "tone and words" couldn't be justified, he added in an apology tweeted on Tuesday night. Siddharth's tweet had drawn outrage for an alleged sexual slur, a charge the actor denies. The controversy began when Siddharth responded to a tweet by Nehwal on a security breach faced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi last week. He later returned to Delhi without attending the programme. The incident, described as a "serious lapse" by the home ministry, set off a political firestorm over who was responsible for the breach. Members of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) accused the government of Punjab, ruled by the opposition Congress party, of deliberately trying to undermine the prime minister's security. The controversy spilled over into social media as well, as supporters and critics of the BJP weighed in. Saina Nehwal is one of India's most celebrated sports stars Nehwal, who joined the BJP in 2020, tweeted that she strongly condemned the "cowardly attack on PM Modi by anarchists", without naming anybody in particular. Siddharth, a critic of Mr Modi, then quote-tweeted her comment with: "Subtle cock champion of the world... Thank God we have protectors of India." The 6 January tweet began gaining attention over the weekend and soon drew outrage from all sides of the political spectrum for the alleged sexual wordplay on Nehwal's sport (badminton players use a shuttlecock). Singer Chinmayi Sripada, who has often spoken about harassment faced by women, told Siddharth the comment was "crass". "You just contributed to what a lot of us women are fighting against," she said. India's National Commission for Women (NCW) even wrote to Twitter, asking them to block Siddharth's account. It also wrote to police in Maharashtra state, where the actor is based, asking them to take action against him. Siddharth then attempted to clarify his tweet, saying he was referring to the idiom "cock and bull". "Reading otherwise is unfair and leading! Nothing disrespectful was intended, said or insinuated. Period," he tweeted on 10 January. But not many bought that explanation. Several TV channels invited political leaders to weigh in on the comments - some BJP leaders alleged that the actor had allowed his "hatred for the PM" to get the best of him. Others continued tweeting about the controversy, using hashtags such as #NarendraModiPunjabvisit, ensuring it remained a Twitter trend. Some right-wingers even tagged Bollywood actor Swara Bhasker - another critic of Mr Modi - asking her to weigh in on the comments. Nehwal told news agency PTI that the comments were "not nice". "He can express himself with better words but I guess it's Twitter and you remain noticed with such words and comments," she said. Siddharth deleted both tweets - the one that kicked off the controversy and his explanation - later. Late on Tuesday night, he tweeted a letter apologising to Nehwal.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-59848651 Air travellers in the US have already seen days of disruption Flight cancellations in the US have hit a new peak in a Christmas season hit hard by the Covid pandemic and bad weather. Nearly 4,400 flights around the world were cancelled on Saturday, more than 2,500 of them in the US, air traffic site FlightAware reported. Airlines have been struggling with staffing problems with crew quarantining after contracting Covid. Adding to travellers' woes, heavy snow has hit the central US. From the US cancellations, more than 1,000 are from Chicago's O'Hare and Midway airports. "Today's cancellations are driven by Omicron staffing and weather-related issues. We did pre-cancel flights in anticipation of inclement weather. We've been contacting passengers early if their flights are cancelled to give them time to rebook or make other plans," United Airlines said in a statement.

A County Tyrone woman who stole £1.9m from her employers to fund her "luxury lifestyle" has been given a five-and-a-half-year prison sentence. Julie McBrien, 47, of Screeby Road, Fivemiletown, committed 26 counts of fraud and money laundering over an eight-year period. It was established she significantly breached the trust of her employers, Cookstown-based Northern Mouldings Limited. The company is owned by Heron Brothers. McBrien was in charge of finances but despite enjoying a good salary, she filtered cash from the company, bringing it to the verge of collapse. Figures identified the expenditure sustained a luxury lifestyle in her lavish mansion. This included £360,000 general expenditure; £356,000 property development; £311,000 interior design; £231,000 fashion and beauty and £145,000 on jewellery. McBrien made up false bank statements and forged the signature of a former employee after failing to remove his name from the bank mandate. She then forged a bank mandate making her solely in charge of finances, countersigning cheques to herself and creating false invoices. She also confided in a company director claiming to have a rare form of cancer. This was exactly the same condition a close relative of the director had endured and he went out of his way to provide support for McBrien as his employee. But there was no cancer and she continued to fund her lifestyle without interference from her employer. When she was arrested she admitted the offences, initially claiming money was spent "just on holidays" adding "there's nothing to show for it". She blamed the company accountants for "not doing their job properly. If they had, I wouldn't be here".

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59803771 India's government has refused to renew the foreign-funding licence for a charity founded by Mother Teresa. The Missionaries of Charity has thousands of nuns supervising projects like homes for abandoned children, schools, clinics and hospices. On Christmas Day, India's home ministry announced it had not renewed the registration due to "adverse inputs". Hindu hardliners have long accused the charity of using its programmes to convert people to Christianity. The charity has denied these allegations. In a statement on Monday, it confirmed that its renewal application had been denied, and that it would not operate any foreign funding accounts "until the matter is resolved". Earlier the chief minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee, drew criticism after tweeting that the government had frozen the charity's bank accounts. But the government and the country have both since denied that the accounts were frozen. The Kolkata-based charity was founded in 1950 by Mother Teresa, a Roman Catholic nun who moved to India from her native Macedonia. It is one of the world's best-known Catholic charities. Mother Teresa was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 for her humanitarian work, and she was declared a saint by Pope Francis in 2016, 19 years after her death.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59723756 A row has broken out in the southern Indian state of Kerala after a government school allowed teenage female students to wear trousers. The BBC's Geeta Pandey in Delhi and Ashraf Padanna in Kerala explain the controversy over clothes. On Wednesday morning, when Sringi CK waited at the bus stop to catch a bus to school in her brand new uniform, a compliment from an unknown woman made her feel special. "This lady told me that I looked very smart and I felt very proud," the 17-year-old, who studies in class 11 at the Government Girls Higher Secondary School in the town of Balussery, told the BBC. But once Sringi reached school, she had to make her way through a throng of protesters - kept in check by dozens of policemen - who were unhappy that girls could now wear trousers and shirts, just like the boys. Until the changeover, female students wore traditional long tunics, loose fitting trousers and waistcoats. School principal Indu R told the BBC that last year girls, who are now in class 12, suggested they should be allowed to wear the same uniform as the boys.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59760633 On the afternoon of 26 November 1933, a diminutive man brushed past a young landlord in a crowded railway station in the eastern Indian city of Kolkata (then Calcutta). Amarendra Chandra Pandey, 20, felt a jab of pain in his right arm as the man dressed in khadi, or coarse, homespun cotton, disappeared into the crowd at Howrah station. "Someone has pricked me," he exclaimed, but he decided to press on with his journey to the family estate in Pakur, a district now in neighbouring Jharkhand state. Accompanying relatives implored Amarendra to stay back and get his blood tested. But his half-brother Benoyendra, who was 10 years older and had arrived at the station uninvited, "made light o e incident" and persuaded him not to delay. When a cobra became a murder weapon in India Three days later, a doctor examined Amarendra - he had returned to Kolkata after contracting a fever - and saw "something like the mark of a hypodermic needle" at the place where he had felt the prick. Over the next few days, the patient developed a high fever, swelling in his armpits and early signs of lung disease. On the night of 3 December, he sank into a coma. He died early next morning. Doctors certified that Amarendra had died of pneumonia. But lab reports that arrived after his death pointed to the presence of Yersinia pestis, the lethal bacteria that causes plague, in his blood. Transmitted by rodents and fleas, plague killed more than 12 million people in the Indian subcontinent between 1896 and 1918. Plague deaths had fallen to around half-a-million between 1929 and 1938, and there had not been a single case of plague recorded in Kolkata in the three years up to Amarendra's f th death.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59634393 Why do thousands of Indian housewives kill themselves every year? According to the recently released data by the government's National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), 22,372 housewives took their own lives last year - that's an average of 61 suicides every day or one every 25 minutes. Housewives accounted for 14.6% of the total 153,052 recorded suicides in India in 2020 and more than 50% of the total number of women who killed themselves. And last year was not an exception. Since 1997 when the NCRB started compiling suicide data based on occupation, more than 20,000 housewives have been killing themselves every year. In 2009, their numbers rose to 25,092. Reports always blame such suicides on "family problems" or "marriage related issues". But what really does drive thousands of women to take their lives? Mental health experts says a major reason is rampant domestic violence - 30% of all women told a recent government survey that they had faced spousal violence - and the daily drudgery that can make marriages oppressive and matrimonial homes suffocating.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59559122 Police in the western Indian state of Maharashtra have arrested a teenager suspected of beheading his pregnant older sister. The woman, 19, had married a man without her family's consent, local police officials said. She was making tea for her brother and mother when she was attacked with a sickle. The teenager and his mother then surrendered to the police. Police suspect they also took a selfie with the woman's head. The brother was sent to a remand home for juveniles after his lawyer said he was less than 18 years old. However, a police official said they would contest this claim in court as they had found a certificate that showed him to be an adult. Their mother was sent to police custody. The incident took place in Aurangabad district, BBC Marathi reported. The victim had eloped in June and married her lover after her family objected to their relationship. Even though they both belonged to the same caste, her family did not approve of him since his family was poorer than theirs. The young woman didn't contact her family much after her marriage but her mother visited her a week before the murder. Police said she knew that her daughter was pregnant.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59219355 India's largest conglomerates have been snapping up stakes in high-end, homegrown designer brands to help them scale up and go global. The trend, experts say, points to a luxury retail market on the cusp of maturity. In October, Reliance Brands Limited (RBL), a subsidiary of the the oil-to-telecoms Reliance conglomerate, announced it was buying 40% equity in celebrity fashion designer Manish Malhotra's eponymous label. A week later, the company bought more than 50% stake in Ritu Kumar, one of India's oldest fashion houses. Malhotra, who has been dressing Bollywood's biggest stars for the last 30 years, launched his label about 15 years ago. He has annual revenues in the ballpark of $30m (£22m), according to Forbes. The secretive Chinese brand dressing Gen Z The call to partner with a corporate house like Reliance was driven partly by his decision to focus on his upcoming Bollywood directorial debut, Malhotra said. But it was also the result of his ambition to expand internationally. "I have the practical knowledge, but for someone who has not studied the business of fashion, my dreams and stories need that backing to go global," he told the BBC at his design workshop in Mumbai city's Santacruz suburb. "The label needs to get more organised. It's very family-led." It's a logical move, and in line with international trends, says Ankur Bisen, senior partner at Technopak retail consultancy. He points to several fashion powerhouses - Dior, Chanel, Hugo Boss, Saint Laurent (YSL) - who did the same: they "institutionalised" by moving beyond the founder who started the eponymous labels.

https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-59269886 Scientists say extreme weather events, such as severe flooding, are becoming more frequent because of climate change Negotiators in Glasgow are poring over a new draft agreement aimed at averting the worst impacts of climate change. The COP26 talks were due to finish on Friday, but sticking points - especially on fossil fuels and on financial help to poorer nations - mean they have overrun. Key language on phasing out coal use has been kept in the latest text. But it remains unclear if the draft will lead to a deal later on Saturday - or to further negotiations. Scientists say that limiting temperature rise to 1.5C compared to pre-industrial levels will protect us from the most dangerous impacts of climate change. It is a key part of the 2015 Paris agreement that most countries signed up to. Meeting the goal requires global emissions to be cut by 45% by 2030 and to zero overall by 2050. One example of the impact of global temperature rise above 2C is the death of virtually all tropical coral reefs, scientists say.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59059493 When India's cricket team lost last Sunday's key match to Pakistan in the T20 World Cup in Dubai, Indian fans took to social media to passionately vent their anger. Much of it was directed at fast bowler Mohammad Shami - the only Muslim player in India's 15-member World Cup squad - who was subjected to vicious trolling and online abuse. Social media users accused him of deliberately leaking runs to Pakistan and called him "a traitor and an anti-national". As the attack grew, many people, including veteran cricketers Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag, spoke in support of Shami.
