A court has sentenced three men to life imprisonment for the gangrape of a minor, stressing the need for strict punishment. The judge stated, “Only the worst punishment will convey the message to the community,” highlighting the severity of the crime and its societal impact.
The Madras High Court today ruled that schools cannot use Transfer Certificates to collect pending fees and should not make entries regarding fee arrears on the TC. Violation of this order will be dealt with under child protection laws. Children should not be involved in fee collection, as it causes trauma and stigma. The court also emphasized the psychological impact on children and urged schools to provide support during financial strains.
