Members of Akhila Bharata Mahila Samskruthika Sanghatane (ABMSS), All India Democratic Students Organisation (AIDSO) and All India Democratic Youth Organisation (AIDYO) on Thursday staged a demonstration here demanding immediate arrest of culprits in the alleged gang rape of a girl in Mysuru on Tuesday evening. The people of Mysuru are in a state of shock over increasing crimes being reported in the city. After the case of an armed gang of dacoits looting a jewellery shop and gunning down a bystander, the shocking incident of a girl student allegedly gang raped near the foothills of Chamundi on the city outskirts has shaken Mysureans, the protesters said. In a memorandum to the Deputy Commissioner, the organisations demanded that the culprits in the alleged gang rape case must be nabbed without any delay and must get stringent punishment for their crime.More Related News

Under the NBS, newborns are screened for communication disorders before they are discharged from the hospital. For this, AIISH has collaborated with several hospitals to conduct screening which is performed to detect hearing impairment and other developmental disabilities that can affect speech and language development. The screening has been helping in early intervention for those identified with the disorders, as any delay in the identification poses risk and affects successful management of children with hearing loss, according to AIISH.
