UK Court Rules Under-16s Can Get Puberty Blocking Drugs

UK Court Rules Under-16s Can Get Puberty Blocking Drugs

by Bithika Mohanty
written by Bithika Mohanty

In a controversial case concerning the use of puberty blockers for children who are confused about their gender, the British Court of Appeal ruled Friday that doctors can prescribe such experimental drugs without parental consent.

Puberty blockers are medicines that prevent puberty from happening. They work by blocking the hormones — testosterone, and estrogen — that lead to puberty-related changes in your body. This stops things like periods and breast growth, or voice-deepening and facial hair growth.

Britain’s Court of Appeal ruled Friday that doctors can prescribe puberty-blocking drugs to children under 16 without a parent’s consent, overturning a lower court’s decision that a judge’s approval should be needed.

Appeals judges said the High Court was wrong to rule last year that children considering gender reassignment are unlikely to be able to give informed consent to medical treatment involving drugs that delay puberty. The December 2020 ruling said that because of the experimental nature of the drugs, clinics should seek court authorization before starting such treatment.

The Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust, which runs the U.K.’s main gender identity development service for children, appealed against that ruling.

On Friday the Court of Appeal agreed with the trust. The judges said it was “inappropriate” for the High Court to have given the guidance and said it was up to doctors to “exercise their judgment” about whether their patients can properly consent.

The trust welcomed the decision, saying it “affirms that it is for doctors, not judges, to decide on the capacity of under-16s to consent to medical treatment.”

Hormone blockers are drugs that can pause the development of puberty and are sometimes prescribed to help children with gender dysphoria by giving them more time to consider their options.

The lawsuit against the Tavistock clinic was brought by two claimants including Keira Bell, who was prescribed hormone blockers at 16 and argued that the clinic should have challenged her moreover her decision to transition to a male.

Lawyers for Bell and the other claimant argued that children going through puberty are “not capable of properly understanding the nature and effects of hormone blockers.”

Bell, now 24, said she was disappointed by the court of appeal ruling and would seek permission to appeal to the Supreme Court.(UK Court Rules )

5 Years To The Cowardly Terror Attack On Indian Army Base Camp In Uri, On 18 September 2016

by Arpita Mohanty
written by Arpita Mohanty

The deadliest of cross-border assaults in two decades across the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir was witnessed on 18th September 2016. A black day for the whole nation, when India lost her 18 brave sons. At a height of 9000 to 12000 ft. when soldiers of two infantry battalions took shelter in the camps during a changeover and while many of them were sleeping, 4 terrorists open fired on them. The alert soldiers started backfiring which killed one of the terrorists on the spot.  An LPG cylinder burst in the cookhouse, which set the camp on fire. Even after the firing was stopped, the arena around was engulfed by fire. Some tents were in flames, yet the casualties were being transferred to the field hospital. Occasional explosions from grenades or bullets due to the enraged heat from the fire, echoed in the ranges.

Lieutenant General Ranbir Singh, the former General Officer in the Indian Army traced the ethnicity of the terrorists and marked their links with Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) which is a Pakistani jihadi group. Former Home Minister and serving Defence Minister Mr. Rajnath Singh tweeted, “Pakistan is a terrorist state and it should be identified and isolated as such”, while the Pakistan government rejected all the allegations.

Since the partition the conflicts between India and Pakistan have grown outrageously. Be it the 26/11 attack, the Kargil War, or Uri attack, things have always taken a terrorising turn, building tensions between the nations. The allegations of fostering terrorism, by India, to continuous rejection of it despite the links and proofs gathered, by Pakistan is clearly visible till now in the verbal battles during the meeting at UNHRC. The recent fall of Kabul and takeover by the Taliban has made the scenario much more complex. Here is a video shared on twitter that clearly testifies the links and complexities in and around Pakistan with Taliban, in this video shared by Geeta Mohan.

The fear of terrorism has also stopped the NZ-Pak upcoming series, where New Zealand has called it off due to security concerns. Read more at: https://rtdjournal.com/new-zealand-vs-pakistan-series-called-off-by-nz-due-to-security-concerns/

Darkness can never make way for light. In the same manner, terrorism can never do good to anyone. Terrorism is the opposite of humanity and should be condemned by every nation and its people, at all times.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas Apologies For ‘The Activist’ Controversy, Show’s Format To Be Changed

by RTD Journal
written by RTD Journal

Priyanka Chopra controversy: Actor Priyanka Chopra Jonas feels sorry for unintentionally hurting the sentiments of people with her upcoming show ‘The Activist’. For the unversed, ‘The Activist’ is a competitive series, which aims to bring together more activists and community members to develop their causes on social media with the aim of earning the highest amount of money to win the game.

Instagram photo by Priyanka Chopra Jonas • Sep 17, 2021 at 1:41 AM

However, the format of the show did not go down well with many. Many people on social media have called the perpetrators voiceless and insensitive.

After experiencing severe depression, the makers changed the format of ‘The Activist’. They submitted its five-episode format into a special one-time document.

Commenting on the ongoing controversy, Priyanka, one of the programme’s host, took to her Instagram account on Friday to apologize to the public for their humiliation. “I have been moved by the power of your voices over the past week. At its core, Activism is fuelled by cause and effect, and when people come together to raise their voice about something, there is always an effect. You were heard. The show got it wrong, and I’m sorry that my participation in it disappointed many of you,” she wrote.

“The intention was always to bring attention to the people behind the ideas and highlight the actions and impact of the causes they support tirelessly. I’m happy to know that in this new format, their stories will be the highlight, and I’m proud to collaborate with partners who have their ear to the ground and know when it’s time to hit pause and re-evaluate,” Priyanka added.

She further said, “There is a global community of activists who fight the fight every single day and put their blood, sweat and tears into creating change, but more often than not, they are rarely heard or acknowledged. Their work is so important and they too deserve to be recognized and celebrated. Thank you to each and every one of you for all that you do.”

Usher and Julianne Hough are also the hosts of ‘The Activist’.

Manoj Patil, the former Mr. India contest winner, reportedly tried to commit himself by ingesting sleeping pills at his home in suburban Oshiwara in the early hours of Thursday, according to police. Patil’s family members transported him to a hospital after the alleged event, which occurred between 12.30 a.m. and 1 a.m. at Patil’s house in Oshiwara’s Saileela building, where his condition was described as “serious,” according to his manager Pari Naaz.

Patil, 29, a “self-made” athlete and a model, had a few days back submitted a letter to the Oshiwara police, demanding action against a Bollywood actor, who has been identified as Sahil Khan as per a report in India Today, for allegedly defaming him on social media and creating problems in his professional life, she said.

Patil, a “self-made” entrepreneur, is 29 years old “She said she had sent a letter to the Oshiwara police a few days ago demanding action against a Bollywood actor, identified as Sahil Khan according to a report in India Today, for allegedly defaming him on social media and causing problems in his professional life.

Karanvir Bohra reaction after being called ‘gareeb’ for driving Ciaz to Sidharth Shukla’s home.

written by Navya Naveli

The Indian television actor, Karanvir Bohra recently reacted to a video in which he has been labelled as “gareeb (poor)” for driving a Maruti Suzuki Ciaz to late actor Sidharth Shukla’s house in order to pay his respects along with his wife.

He lashed out on the media person for his heartless comment,  “Ciaz gadi mein aye hai, gareeb lag rahe hai!’, while waiting below Sidhart’s apartment for their car and took that particular video to Instagram where he wrote ”So sad, are we here to make 5-star appearances? We came to meet a mother who just lost her son. And this is what certain press people notice during such a grieving time? This is exactly what gives press people a bad name.” He also spoke to a few police officials before leaving Sidharth’s place.

Prior to this Karanvir Bohra had also written: “This is devastating. I’m beyond shocked. How can this happen? What kind of joke is God is playing with us. Sending prayers to his family. May God give them strength to bear this loss.”, while paying his emotional tribute to the late actor Karanvir Shukla who passed away on 2nd September at the age of 40 in Cooper hospital.

For this matter people took over the comment section and criticized the reporter for being so inconsiderate and facile.

It’s high time for the media to understand that when people, weather celebrities or not, are grieving the loss of a loved one, should be left alone and should be given a break from all the unnecessary judgements. People also needs to understand that the celebrities can also have a simple lifestyle and not get tagged as unsuccessful.
