Hyderabad manager borrows ₹4 lakh from team, goes on emergency leave. HR refuses to intervene

A troubling workplace situation has unfolded in a Hyderabad IT company, where a manager allegedly borrowed nearly ₹4 lakh from ten team members before vanishing on “emergency leave.” One employee, who charged ₹2 lakh on a personal credit card, was left with ₹1.5 lakh in unpaid debt and mounting interest fees after the manager missed multiple repayment deadlines. Seeking workplace resolution, the affected employees approached their HR department, only to be turned away, with the claim that it was purely a personal matter.

Nadda says student activists should face police action, sparks Rajya Sabha row

Leader of the House in the Rajya Sabha, J.P. Nadda, on Wednesday said any student activist who wants to do activism should face police action.  He said this when John Britas raised the issue of Delhi Police personnel barging into the CPI(M) office in Delhi.  The Rajya Sabha witnessed heated exchanges and sloganeering after members raised the issue of Delhi Police officials allegedly entering the national headquarters of the CPI(M) on Tuesday to arrest student leader Aishe Ghosh, a former president of the Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union. After papers and reports were laid, Chairman C.P. Radhakrishnan permitted members to raise matters with permission. John Brittas of the CPI(M) drew the House’s attention to the incident. He said police personnel “barged into a national political party office, CPI(M), to arrest a student leader, Aishe Ghosh”. Brittas stated that her only alleged offence was participation in a student protest at Jantar Mantar. When questioned, the officers cited pending cases from 2020-21. “I have no problem with Delhi Police action as this is a bipartisan issue, but …

A Delhi Police team barged into the headquarters of CPM, which is a national political party… It was to arrest Aishe Ghosh, former JNU students’ union president. Her only mistake was: she participated in the Jantar Mantar agitation.” Brittas said the police personnel told her they wanted to arrest Ghosh in a 2021 case related to a protest on JNU campus. “The shocking …
