Other key measures
Front seat safety restrictions
Live Events
The police have strictly prohibited children aged 10 or below or those shorter than 145 cm from sitting in the front seat of a vehicle in view of the safety risks, including accidents. When an accident occurs, the front seat typically bears the most impact, increasing the likelihood of severe injuries for children. Violating this rule will invite a fine of Dh400. The regulation also applies to adults under 145 cm in height.
Seat belts are crucial
To minimise the risk of injury in road accidents, seat belts are crucial as they help in keeping children in place, significantly mitigating the chance of serious injuries. During sudden collisions or hard braking, seat belts restrict body movement, providing added protection to the child's head, neck and torso.
Summer vehicle safety
awareness
In a bid to promote public awareness of summer vehicle safety, particularly for road travel, authorities have laid emphasis on the importance of regular
vehicle maintenance
and safe driving practices during high-temperature conditions.
Six key public awareness messages to ensure safety:
Regular maintenance, tyre checks, fluid checks, brake inspection, light functionality, and valid documentation.

'There's Really Nothing You Can Do About It': HasanAbi Criticizes Ethan Klein Over Streamer Lawsuits
Image via: HasanAbi/YouTube The tensions between the world of online political commentary exploded this week when popular Twitch streamer Hasan 'HasanAbi' Piker decided to fire missiles at YouTuber Ethan Klein, due to Klein's ever-increasing barrage of often-frivolous lawsuits against other creators on the platform. During a June 26 Twitch stream, Piker lambasted Klein's legal maneuvers as exploitative and representative of greater maladies in the American judicial system. Streamer-on-Streamer Legal War Copyright infringement lawsuits filed by Ethan Klein, best known for his H3H3 brand, has set a firestorm among three political streamers Denims, Morgan 'Frogan,' and Kacey 'Kaceytron.' All of these streamers are members of the same online streamer circles, and often share the same political alignment as Piker, so the criticism that they are all misappropriating Klein's content is what is hanging over their heads. As critics point out, these lawsuits are not really about protecting intellectual property as much as they are about retribution against those who speak out against you. Piker, who definitely has a history of publicly sparring with Klein mentioned, 'When you're depraved and manic and insane, you don't care about wasting unlimited funds... You can be a vexatious litigant.' Abusing the System? While Piker did not go so far in a legal sense as to label the lawsuits as frivolous, he indicated that the suits constitute an abuse of structural power. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like India: Jewelry On Sale For Half Price (See Price List) Luxury Jewelry | search ads Undo He supported a viewer's comment saying that Klein is 'abusing the system,' then continued to call the U.S. legal apparatus broken and rigged for rich people. 'Given the way that our legal system works, given the way that our court system works, given the way that copyright works, there's really nothing you can do about it,' Piker said. 'You basically hope that the [cyberstalkers] calm down.' His comments seemed to reflect a larger worry that copyright claims are being used as a weapon against, and to financially bankrupt, independent creators without legal artillery at their disposal. Personal Vendetta or PR Stunt? Piker suggested that Klein's lawsuits are not so much about seeking justice as they are about creating a spectacle. 6, he speculated that this was perhaps a calculated move to create some clickbait online drama or even help revive Klein's fading public profile. 'It's a last-ditch attempt,' he said, implying that Klein might be using litigation as a publicity tool. The Ethan Klein Lawsuit Just Got Worse | Hasanabi reacts So far, none of the accused streamers have issued formal responses, but community reaction has meted out pretty quick and in a divisive manner, to say the least. On one side, supporters of Klein's actions praise the enforcement as long-needed protection of creator rights. Supporters aligning with Piker's perspective disparage the lawsuits as a harmful new digital content precedent. No matter how the courtroom drama goes, the turf war between two of the web's most aggressive political performers isn't letting up any time soon.

1 2 Chandigarh: The cybercrime division of Punjab Police has arrested two individuals and identified 33 suspects involved in viewing, transmitting, and distributing child pornography and expoitive content of minors, said a top official on Friday. Punjab director general of police (DGP) Gaurav Yadav said the content, which is described as child sexual exploitative and abusive material (CSEAM), was being distributed through online platforms like WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, and Telegram. The operation, codenamed CSEAM-4, was conducted on Thursday and spanned 40 locations across 18 districts.

The Supreme Court, in a judgement, clarified that viewing, possessing, and not reporting CSEAM content is punishable under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO) Act. CSEAM refers to any content depicting or exploiting minors in a sexual manner, including photos, videos, or media, which is illegal to produce, distribute, or possess, causing long-lasting harm to victims and considered a severe form of child exploitation due to the lasting impact it had on victims. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Those arrested have been identified as Akash Babu, a resident of Rajasthani Colony in Khanna, and Harpreet Singh, a resident of Burmajra village in Morinda, Ropar.

He said during the operation, 33 suspects were identified across Punjab, with teams from field units dispatched under the guidance of additional director general of police (cybercrime) V Neeraja. The raids led to the registration of two FIRs and the seizure of 34 mobile phones, which were sent for forensic analysis to recover deleted data, with more FIRs and arrests anticipated, the DGP said.

In California, school named after Jaswant Singh Khalra, who blew lid off Punjab killings of 1980s and 1990s
1 2 3 4 Jalandhar: 'Punjab 95', the film starring Diljit Dosanjh on slain human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, faced 127 cuts from the Central Board of Film Certification at home in India, but an elementary school in Fresno, California, has been named after the man who challenged Punjab Police during the darkest days of the state. The school was inaugurated in the presence of Khalra's family on Friday. "It was a historic day in Central Unified! Today, we proudly celebrated the ribbon cutting of Jaswant Singh Khalra Elementary School — the first elementary school in the United States named after a Punjabi human rights activist," posted the Central Unified School District, in Fresno County, on its Facebook page. "This powerful moment was more than just the opening of a new school — it was a tribute to courage, community, and the rich cultural heritage of our Punjabi community that helps shape the Central Valley. We're excited for our students to walk these hallways in the upcoming school year and carry forward a legacy rooted in justice and truth," added the district. Khalra's wife, Paramjit Kaur Khalra, and daughter, Navkirtan Kaur, were present on the occasion. Amid the controversy over a hundred cuts asked by the CBFC, Kunal Kamra called out the CBFC for stalling 'Punjab 95'. Kamra said it was a fear of showing "a hero in a turban." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Dores nos nervos e neuropatia?
