Recently, while addressing a rally in Ayodhya, PM Modi urged the people of the country to light the 'Ram Jyoti' in house and celebrate Diwali on January 22, when the consecration of Ramlalla takes place.

Violence was reported in Koregaon Bhima area in Pune district on January 1, 2018, when thousands of Ambedkarite Dalits gathered at the 'Jaystambh' at Perne Phata in Pune district to mark the 200th anniversary of the battle of Koregaon Bhima.

If an extension is granted, the Commissions next hearing will be a long one: From October 16-28, so as to complete the cross-examination of all remaining witnesses.

During cross-examination by Jamadar, Nangare Patil said he had not visited the Jaystambh prior to January 1, 2018. As per Nangare Patil’s affidavit, there were inputs that some “Dalit Sanghatna” wanted to demolish Jamadar’s house located adjacent to the Jaystambh on January 1, 2018.

Either this affidavit was prepared a long time back, or, Ambedkar has not been following the Commissions hearings.

Speaking to the media, Prakash Ambedkar said an inquiry should be done to find the level at which intelligence failure had happened so that the “loopholes” are known.

BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis was Maharashtra’s chief minister when violence was reported in Pune’s Koregaon Bhima area on January 1, 2018.

Fadnavis told mediapersons in Mumbai, "Several people have written letters in the past to the Bhima Koregaon Commission.

This is perhaps the first time any state representative has accepted that the Elgar Parishad event had no role to play in the violence. While three activists have been released on bail, and one died in custody, 12 continue to be jailed over this claim.

The panel had earlier summoned Pawar in 2020 but he couldn't appear before it due to the coronavirus-induced lockdown.
