It’s Allauddin Khilji and not Padmavati who is misrepresented, says Indian historian



New Delhi, January 26 (Global Village Space): An Indian historian, Rana Safvi, claims it is the character of the Muslim conqueror Alauddin Khilji which has been tainted and misrepresented not that of Queen Padmini (Padmavati) in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s controversial film ‘Padmaavat’.
This distorted representation seems to be a part of a larger scheme of an ongoing movement in the country that distorts history by portraying Muslim rulers as being invariably cruel, without any reference to authentic information or source, Safvi charged.
As opposed to historical facts, Alauddin Khilji is portrayed in the movie as an uncivilized and barbaric ruler, she pointed out.

Julian Assange challenges warrant for his arrest as doctors confirm worsening of his health

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has asked a UK court to relinquish the arrest warrant that is keeping him confined to the Ecuadorian Embassy in Knightsbridge, London. If granted, he would be free to leave without fear of arrest, according to a spokesman for the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).
“Hypothetically, yes. That would be our interpretation,” he said. Assange would then be able to seek the medical treatment he urgently needs.
First arrested in London in December 2010 under anti-democratic provisions of a European Arrest Warrant (EAW) issued by the Swedish authorities, Assange was never charged with any crime and was only required to return to Sweden in order to answer questions regarding trumped up allegations of sexual misconduct. He skipped bail to avoid extradition to Sweden—after being denied elementary democratic rights by the British legal system—seeking asylum in the Embassy in 2012.

Super luxury Torrington Towers: Rajitha requests unsolicited contract for brother’s company By Namini Wijedasa

On Health Minister Rajitha Senaratne’s request, the Cabinet has instructed the Housing Ministry to entertain an unsolicited proposal for the re-development of Torrington Flats on Thimbirigasyaya Road by a company in which Mr Senaratne’s younger brother is a director.

In November, the Housing Ministry put forward its own proposal to the Cabinet to re-develop the present site of the Torrington Flats “as a high-yield urban residential site, whilst ensuring the ownership rights of the present condominium owners”. Housing Minister Sajith Premadasa’s memorandum sought permission to designate the Condominium Management Authority (CMA) as the implementing agency for the project in terms of the CMA Law of 1973.
