I don't need to tell people why I'm coming there to pray and give things in honor to the land. I don't need permission or consent," House told NBC News. "And I don't think he liked that very much."House was later cited for being in a closed area off trail, providing false information and failing to comply with a lawful order, NPS said. His sister was cited for providing false information and being in a closed area off trail. House accused the ranger of abusing his power in a post on Instagram."This could have been a civil interaction," he said while sharing video of the incident. "The law doesn't work for the Indigenous. The government doesn't give a s- about us. This was uncalled for."The National Parks Service is investigating the incident."That investigation will include interviews with the officers, those involved, and any other witnesses who were in the area at the time of the incident. Investigators will also review the video captured by one of the individuals and later posted to social media, as well as the body worn camera footage worn by the NPS law enforcement officer," the agency said in a statement.<ul class="read-more-links"><li>Read more:</li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/esther-nakajjigo-family-wrongful-death-suit-against-arches-national-park-2020-11">The family of a woman decapitated by a loose fence is suing Arches National Park, saying an $8 padlock would have prevented her death</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/man-broke-leg-stranded-joshua-tree-national-park-2020-7">A 67-year-old California man broke his leg in Joshua Tree National Park and was stranded for 2 days, surviving on berries and water</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/yellowstone-national-park-woman-gored-by-bison-2020-6">A 72-year-old woman was gored by a bison at Yellowstone National Park after she got too close to it while taking photos</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/thailand-national-park-mailing-back-trash-2020-9">A national park in Thailand is mailing trash back to campers who littered</a></li></ul>

<ul class="summary-list"><li><keyword id="258293" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="BTS">BTS</keyword> delivered remarks on Wednesday at the 75th United Nations General Assembly.</li><li>The group spoke to future generations, contextualized within the current moment of the COVID-19 pandemic.</li><li>In the speech, BTS delivered a message of persistence and hope, speaking about their own struggles with loneliness and creativity during the pandemic.</li></ul>On Wednesday, BTS spoke at the 75th United Nations General Assembly, delivering a message of hope and reassurance to encourage people to continue living on despite current hardships. The group was invited to speak by the Group of Friends of Solidarity for Global Health Security, which was founded by South Korea in 2020 to discuss health issues like the coronavirus pandemic, <a href="https://www.soompi.com/article/1426929wpp/bts-to-deliver-special-message-at-75th-united-nations-general-assembly">Soompi reported</a>. Due to present circumstances, the 75th general assembly is being held primarily through virtual meetings and pre-recorded speeches.During the speech, all seven members of BTS — RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook — delivered a message of hope, describing their own personal struggles and feelings of loneliness during the pandemic."COVID-19 was beyond my imagination," group leader RM said during the speech. "Our world tour was totally canceled. All of our plans went away, and I became alone. I looked up but couldn't see the stars at night."Jimin echoed the sentiment, saying, "I felt hopeless. Everything fell apart. I could only look outside my window, I could only go to my room. Yesterday, I was singing and dancing with fans around the world, and now my world had shrunk to a room.""The room itself was small, but my world and our world reached far and wide," Suga said. "In this world we had our instruments, our phones, and our fans."The group has been staying connected with fans throughout the pandemic, <a href="https://www.insider.com/bang-bang-con-the-live-bts-virtual-concert-best-moments-2020-6">hosting virtual concerts like "Bang Bang Con: The Live" </a> and promoting their most recent single "<a href="https://www.insider.com/bts-dynamite-music-video-details-analysis-breakdown-2020-8">Dynamite</a>," which made history by <a href="https://www.insider.com/bts-billboard-hot-100-dynamite-first-south-korea-2020-8">topping the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart</a> during its first week. Now, they're gearing up to release a new album that the group has said will come out in 2020.While they've certainly been staying busy, the group members were candid about their personal struggles during the pandemic. "I was frustrated and depressed, but I took notes, wrote songs, and thought about who I was," V said. "I thought, 'If I give up here, then I'm not the star of my life. This is what an awesome person would do.'"J-Hope said during the speech that eventually, the group began to create together once more. "I don't know who was first. We embraced all those emotions and the seven of us began to make music together," he said. Now, the group is working towards releasing another album in 2020, which V said during a press conference in August will show "the unique color of BTS more than any album we have made before."While the group is looking ahead towards the future, Jin stressed the importance of appreciating the present. "Thinking about the future and trying hard are all important. But cherishing yourself, encouraging yourself, and keeping yourself happy is the most important," he said. "In a world of uncertainty, we must cherish the importance of 'me,' 'you,' and 'us.'"That's a message that has shown through in BTS' discography as well, not only in the group's introspective "Love Yourself" trilogy, but in songs like <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E30APZxHh4c">"2!3!"</a> in which the group, <a href="https://genius.com/Genius-english-translations-bts-2-3-still-wishing-for-more-good-days-english-translation-lyrics">per a Genius translation</a>, sings to their fans, called ARMY, "It's okay come on when I say one two three forget it / Erase all sad memories hold my hand and smile.""If there's something I can do, if our voices can give strength to people, then that's what we want and that's what we'll keep on doing," Jungkook said during the speech.This isn't the first time BTS has delivered remarks at the UN General Assembly — in 2018, the group became the <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/24/asia/bts-un-korea-intl/index.html">first K-pop group to address the United Nations</a>, with leader RM saying at the time, "No matter who you are, where you're from, your skin color, gender identity: speak yourself."BTS also partnered with UNICEF on the "Love Myself" anti-violence campaign that launched in November 2017. By November 2018, <a href="https://www.teenvogue.com/story/bts-raised-14-million-unicef-love-myself-campaign#:~:text=It%20will%20come%20as%20no,to%20end%20violence%20against%20children.">the group raised approximately $1.4 million for UNICEF.</a>This time, as is a relative constant with BTS, their message was one of hope and persistence. "Life goes on," they said together.

And now, as they make their way to the stock market, restaurants across the country face massive restrictions with night curfews in major cities like Mumbai, Delhi and even weekend lockdowns like in the state of Maharashtra. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/news/restaurants-in-maharashtra-are-staring-at-a-slow-death-as-another-lockdown-threatens-to-kill-their-business/articleshow/81924727.cms">Restaurant owners</a> fear that the second wave of COVID-19 that has been surging through the country, and the subsequent lockdowns could prove lethal for them. Barbeque Nation has already been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Last year, in April and May there was barely any business, eventually, the growth started from June and by November, their business was at 84% of last year’s November numbers. But Agrawal said that while there may be a short term disruption in business, their long term vision to grow in the Indian restaurant industry remains intact. “This will be the nature of the business going forward for at least a couple of quarters – different states will have different restrictions. In the short term, you would see business disruption. We believe that we have already gone through a strict lockdown in the past, and survived it and that will help us sail through this,” he had said.
