India's Top 10 Criminals: Modi Is Not The Only Misfit In The Gallery

Internet search giant Google apologised yesterday for any confusion or misunderstanding that arose over the listing of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s photos appearing in image search results for query on “Top 10 criminals in India”.

But Modi is not the only misfit on that page. The search page also includes eminent public figures like Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, the founder of Art of Living, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Lawyer and Politician Ram Jethmalani, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, and Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha.

So what exactly is going on? This isn’t the first time that Google’s algorithm has thrown up some completely whacked out results. A popular technique, known as ‘Google bombing’ was used by pranksters and SEO experts to make George W. Bush the first result for the term ‘miserable failure’.

ASANSOL (West Bengal) — Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said that cooperative federalism in India will ensure that power is not concentrated in the national capital, urging Chief Ministers across the country to join 'Team India'.

Sadly the relationship between the Centre and the states has been tense for a long time. I myself have been a chief minister for a long time and I know that such a relationship is not good for either the state or the country," Prime Minister Modi said, while inaugurating the modernised IISCO Steel Plant at the Burnpur area of Asansol in West Bengal.

PM Modi's First Comments on Banning Delhi Gang-Rape Documentary

NEW DELHI:  Prime Minister Narendra Modi has, for the first time, commented on his government's decision to ban a documentary on the fatal Delhi gang-rape that triggered massive street protests and forced the introduction of tougher new laws to punish sexual crimes.

In an interview to Time magazine about his first year in office, Mr Modi said, when it comes to freedom of speech, " There is absolutely not an iota of doubt in terms of our commitment and our belief."
The documentary, called India's Daughter and directed by Leslie Udwin, includes interviews with one of the men convicted for the gang-rape, and  was banned four days before it was meant to air on NDTV.  The documentary was then removed from YouTube as well on the orders of the government.
"I do not think it is a question of freedom of speech, it is more a question of law and respecting the victim and the judicial processes in this particular case," the Prime Minister said.
