 Hello everyone and welcome to NewsClick. I am Apurva and I am Prashant and here are the top stories for the day. We begin with an interview with Bilkis Banu, whose case we have been following very closely over the past week. Just two days ago, the Supreme Court ordered Gujarat government to pay 50 lakh rupees to Bilkis as compensation. She had suffered horrific violence during the 2002 Gujarat riots. In this exclusive interview, Bilkis talks to NewsClick about what she went through when she first went to the Gujarat police to file an FIR and how this order actually what it means to others fighting for justice. He said, I will tell you all the names of the people who are in charge of this case. I will give you all an injection of poison and kill you all. I said, I will read and hear what I have been told. They threatened me. They forced me to take my ring with them. The amount of time that this case took place in Gujarat, and even after that, when the government and the Gujarat police were investigating for some time, how they tried to weaken your case, if you could tell me a little bit about it. You say something, you don't listen to it, or you do something wrong, or something like that happened to you. Why did you think that I would not be able to get justice in Gujarat? If someone has done such a thing with us before, then we will feel that we will not be able to get justice here. And our case has been closed for about a year and a half. We have not heard anything about it. So now, how do you feel after this decision? Do you feel that what will you do next? We have given orders to the Supreme Court. It has been given a lot. It has been given a lot of good for us. We have given more. We have given them more. We have given them more. We have given them more. We want to get justice for them. Our team spoke to the residents of these villages to try and find out if any development had taken place in the last 5 years. This is what they had to say. People are not able to understand that the development of the roads is very light in the city. We have to understand that there is no food in our house. We have to see that in the form of development. India will host the FIFA Under-17 Women's World Cup in 2020. It will be the first time a women's team from the country will participate in any of the FIFA's World Cups. But even today, football is far from a mass sport as far as women's participation is concerned. Sports journalists Meheer Vasavda and Sharda Ugra were in our studio discussing the struggles of women who want to play sports in India. I mean, as we are talking, there are the junior national championships happening. They are taking place in Kolhapur, which at this point it is around 40-42 degrees over there. They gave all the states time of 15 days to register their players. Now, the problem here is that none of the states have an active youth program. I was speaking to the president of Andhra Pradesh Football Federation who was also, I think, in the AFS Finance Committee. He was very careful in the words he chose to speak and his point was, If we have 10 girls on a good day, then we are happy. How can we make 30 players one by one? From where do we get 30 players to send a team for the junior national championships? It was the same problem in most states I spoke to. Sikkim did not send a team because according to their Federation who is also in the AFS Executive Committee, I think, he said that there were elections there. And if the team went away, then their parents couldn't vote for their coach. So they completely gave the tournament a miss. You have Mizoram who didn't have enough time to prepare a team for this. My point is you're going to choose your first batch of under 17 World Cup team from here and you don't even know if your best players are going there. Delhi, for example, the biggest problem was the exams were clashing with the tournament with the selection trials. So half of the girls did not turn up. I don't know if school exams. So if you knew a little while ago that you're going to have the under 17 World Cup, I'm sure AFF did not come to know with the FIFA press release. No. You never know. You never know. But I'm guessing they knew a couple of months in advance. They sent out a release to all the state associations about the junior national championships a week after FIFA made this announcement. And then they give them 15 days to select 30 players each. And in another 15 days, you have to reserve your train tickets to Kolhapur where you're making your championships at 45 degrees. So it is very bizarre all of this. The full discussion will be out on the latest episode of our Indian football show, 420 Grams. Now we are joined by Prashant to take us through our international stories of the day. Our first story is from South Africa where workers of an arsl or middle plant protested yesterday in front of the Indian High Commission in Pretoria. The workers who were organized by the National Metal Union Workers of South Africa said that the company was engaging in unfair labour practices. Oh, 1,000 employees have been affected. The workers insisted that arsl or brittle, which is owned by Lakshmi Narayan Mittal and Indian Billionaire and give them justice. Last year, a constitutional court in South Africa had ruled that any worker who earns less than $205,000 a year, which is around $14,000 and is hired by a labour broker should be made into a permanent employee after three months of work. However, Arsl or Mittal has tried to evade this rule by claiming that the 1,000 employees in their plant were hired not by a labour broker but by a service provider. Noomsa has pointed out that the use of the term service provider is just an excuse as far as the company is concerned. As a result of this so-called excuse, what happens is that many of these employees do not get proper salaries and other benefits. For instance, these employees get only around $2,600 a month, which is even less than the minimum wage of $3,500. This has been actually called by the slave law. Due to all these reasons, the workers began protesting in March. A few days after the protests began, some of the workers were arrested by the police and were later released after Noomsa intervened. The protesters in front of the Indian High Commission yesterday said that India, as a founding member of the International Labour Organization, should ensure that its citizens do not exploit workers, especially those from those in other countries. Here is a look at some footage from the protests yesterday. Our second story is from Russia, where North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and Russian President Vladimir Putin met in the city of Vladivostok. This summit acquires great significance, as it happens after the failed Hanoi summit between US President Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un. After the meeting, Putin said that North Korea needed some guarantees if it wanted to continue with its denuclearization process. This matches closely with North Korea's own position, which is that denuclearization can happen only if the US withdraws its sanctions. On the other hand, the Trump administration has been insisting that denuclearization should happen first, and everything else comes later. Putin also focused on the fact that the process has to be a multilateral one, involving many countries, and he has indicated that this might help in providing some of the guarantees that North Korea requires. It is still unclear what the results of this meeting will be and how this will affect the North Korea-US process. That's all we have time for today.
