Dr Meenakshi Kulkarni guided the students on change management, positive attitude, etiquettes and manners.

 When Nation Next spoke to Harsha Jharia, she said, “Organising Ms LAD contest every year gives me immense satisfaction even though it involves three months of rigorous training of the students on better communication skills, confidence building, grooming, styling, fitness with Zumba, group discussions, brain storming sessions, etc. The best part about this contest is that unlike other pageants, Ms LAD doesn’t have beauty as its criteria. It’s solely talent based. Because of this, I have been seeing a positive change in the contestants since last 10 years. We’ve seen these girls getting selected in campus interviews and attaining success in their respective careers.”

A 38-year-old married man named Manish alias Raj Yadav, on Sunday, committed suicide during a Facebook live-stream after allegedly being accused of rape by his girlfriend and her family in Nagpur.

During the live stream, Manish, who was married and a father to three children, stated that his 19-year-old girlfriend, Kajal, along with her family members demanded a sum of five lakh rupees and threatened to press charges of rape if he failed to do so.

On September 6, the situation became grave as the woman’s family accused him of eloping after Kajal went missing from her residence.

The deceased refused the claims of having any sexual relationship with the woman and identified her, her family, and a photo studio operator responsible for his condition. He, then, jumped into the river.

After the live video surfaced online, Kalamna Police launched a search operation and recovered the deceased’s body from the river. Four people have been detained in the case for questioning. Further investigation is underway.
