A former Tech Mahindra employee staged a silent protest on Thursday, July 23, outside her office in Hyderabad's Raidurgam, accusing her employer of alleged workplace harassment. Bhavana says she joined Tech Mahindra around five months ago. After completing training, she fell extremely sick. In June, she applied for a 13-day sick leave because of her deteriorating health. However, despite informing the company about her health condition, she claimed she was repeatedly pressured to resume work. "I received a warning letter in the most inappropriate language," she said. She rejoined the company but faced a humiliating experience from her supervisors who frequently questioned her movements, even when she wanted to use the washroom. "I have never experienced such treatment in any organisation," she said. The software engineer alleged she was eventually terminated from her job in "violation of labour laws." She has filed a police complaint accusing the company of workplace harassment and unlawful termination.

Hyderabad: Angry supporters of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) disrupted a show of standup comidian Sarat Uday in Bengaluru and verbally abused the Hyderabad-based artist in the middle of his performance over jokes cracked on Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu over two years ago. Despite Sarat apologising earlier, the miscreants still forced him to issue another apology in front of the audience. The incident took place at Koramangala in Bengaluru on Saturday, April 25, around 7 pm and the entire incident was captured in a video. According to Sarat, the miscreants disrupted his show almost immediately after he began. A man from the audience first arrived and said, “I’m your fan, you do comedy very well. But in one show, you insulted our leader." Soon, he was joined by two more people, who began to threaten Sarat, following which a group of five or six people also walked in and ganged up on the comedian. Sarat told them that he had already apologised for those jokes, but the TDP supporters demanded a new apology and started to abuse him verbally.

Her family lives in a rented home. She mentions that achieving such a feat in a patriarchal society was not easy. "This is my third try. After my first unsuccessful attempt, I felt discouraged.

Senior Congress leader Osman Bin Mohammed Al Hajri landed a kaan bairi (tight slap) on Feroz Khan during a meeting at Gandhi Bhavan on Wednesday. The issue began when both Khan and Hajri wanted to sit next to the Minorities Welfare Minister, Mohammed Azharuddin. In a now marrively viral video, Hajri is heard repeatedly saying "bade bhai ko dhakalte (How dare you push your big brother)," before landing a slap on Feroz Khan's face, pushing him to the ground. A shocked Khan rose but kept his cool. What followed was complete chaos, prompting Advisor to the Government V Hanumantha Rao to intervene, only for the veteran leader to get drawn into the commotion. He is seen questioning Hajri's actions. "Do you think you are a pahelwan?" he thundered, to which Hajri responded to ask Feroz Khan the same question instead, and hurled abuses at everybody who diffused the tense moments. Rajya Sabha MP Anil Kumar Yadav and others tried to form a protective cover for Hanumantha Rao, while other leaders pushed the attacking side back. BC Welfare Minister Ponnam Prabhakar, who is chairing the meeting, was also at the scene when the scuffle took place. Meanwhile, Azharuddin, who had just arrived, left the scene immediately. Later, Feroz Khan told media persons that the issue occurred over a chair and that he had pushed Hajri to sit on the dais, which led the latter to push him to the ground. He also said the issue ended with the two hugging each other, with Hajri kissing him. "Congress is one big family," he said.
