Dr Guleria

New Delhi: The third wave of Covid in the country is inevitable, says AIIMS chief Dr. Randeep Guleria. The AIIMS chief warned that there would be a third wave in the country in the next six to eight weeks. The AIIMS chief’s response came after weeks of lockdown, with various states announcing exemptions.

When concessions are not announced, people do not behave according to the circumstances. People gather. People don’t seem to have learned anything from one or two waves of Covid. Guleria said it would take time for the number of cases to rise nationally.

New Delhi: It is preparing to comprehensively revise the country’s film laws to give the central government broad powers, including directing it to re-examine censored films.

The move is to amend the Cinematograph Act to comprehensively revise the film laws in the country. The bill was drafted. The government has sought public opinion on the draft. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has been asked to submit its comments by July 2.

One of the key provisions of the law is that censorship should be based on the age of the audience. It is recommended to divide it into U / A7 +, U / A13 + and U / A16+.

The draft law also recommends imprisonment for making a fake version of the film. According to the new Cinematograph Amendment 2021, making a fake copy of a film is punishable by up to three months imprisonment and a fine of up to Rs 3 lakh.

Meanwhile, the Karnataka High Court had earlier quashed the Centre’s decision to review films sanctioned by the Censor Board. The Supreme Court upheld it in November 2000, but the new amendment overrides this.
