The police had earlier claimed that the elderly woman had died of natural causes. But the autopsy re- port says Parvathi died of ‘‘shock due to electric burn injuries’’. Her son, V R Ganesh, told The Times of India that the police were underplaying his mother’s ‘‘murder by robbers’’ by trying to estab- lish that she died of brain haemorrhage. The victim was found un- conscious in her bathroom with minor injuries. A wire hanging from an electricity socket indicated that she might have been adminis- tered electric shocks. Ganesh then filed a re- port saying unidentified robbers had murdered his mother and robbed her of jewellery and a video cas- sette recorder. He said the robbers might have entered the flat after asking his mother for water. A bottle of water was found outside the main door. Sector 20 police station chief Sudesh Gupta had told The Times of India that the victim seemed to have ‘‘suffered a brain haemor- rhage.’’ Noida superintend- ent of police (city), Vijay Bhushan, denied the police was underplaying the case.

And along with that, he brought home a guide book on home-made wine. Since then, the Goan hang- over has sustained itself in the Thakkar household. In dry Gujarat, it is do-it- yourself time for Bacchus lovers, who are fast turning away from the army of boot- leggers out to fleece them. ‘‘We have made wine from grapes on a number of occa- sions. It’s an ideal drink to en- joy with friends,’’ says Thakkar. For 60-year-old Mali- ni Desai, too, a trip to Europe in the mid-80s turned heady as she picked up ways to prepare wine at home. Desai’s husband, a business- man and an ardent wine lover, enjoys a drink with dinner. ‘‘The formula is simple. Get the grapes, crush them, mix yeast and allow it to ferment for 20 to 25 days. Then, store it in an earthen jar — preferably those used to store pickles — and let it mature for a year,’’ says Thakkar, who prepares to do it on his own ‘‘rather go through the hassle of procur- ing bottles from bootleggers and spending a fortune’’. ‘‘A glass of red wine is good for health and will never give you a high. But it is prohibited in our state and so, I found an- other option — of making my own wine. I make it out of raw mangoes,’’ says Rupa Bhagol, a Pratapnagar resident. Class IX student files PIL against TV ‘soap opera’ TIMES NEWS NETWORK Lucknow: Admitting a Public In- terest Litigation (PIL) petition, filed by a class IX student against the wrong portrayal of women in popular TV soaps, the high court here on Monday constituted a four- member committee to examine the questions raised in the PIL and submit its report within a month. The Bench, comprising Justice Jagdish Bhalla and Justice GK Gupta, after hearing the argu- ments of Shyamalee Misra, daugh- ter of UP’s advocate general SC Misra, issued notices against Star India Private Limited and Balaji Production through its producer Ekta Kapoor, Mumbai and consti- tuted a four-member committee, comprised of senior advocate SK Kalia, Dr RK Srivastava, Alka Ver- ma and Padma Kirti, to examine the issue and submit report within a month. The court has also ap- pointed Devendra Kumar Arora as amicus curiae. Shyamalee has prayed to re- strain the exhibition of offensive portions of the serials like Kasauti Zindagi Ki, Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Kahin Kissi Roz, telecast on Star Plus. It is further prayed that the ministry of information and broadcasting and the Board of Film Certification should also be directed to restrain the exhibition of said portions.

Tuesday morning, the duel started as soon as BJP MP S S Ahluwalia mentioned the raids on Badal’s son and Ra- jya Sabha MP Sukhbir Singh Badal. His voice was soon drowned in the uproar as Congress MPs rose to their feet in protest, arguing the is- sue was sub-judice. ‘‘Is it?’’ asked chairman Bhairon Singh Shekhawat as he tried to restore order and wave down the BJP MPs who, too, were protesting the searches on the Badal family properties.
