The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Thursday said it has arrested two main conspirators in an ongoing case linked to illegally printing and supplying a huge quantity of fake Indian currency notes, which, through various other accused, reached the currency chest of Punjab National Bank (PNB) in Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur. One of the conspirators, Ajay Kumar, was arrested on October 16 from Ambala in Haryana, while another, namely Harish Rounta, was held on October 22 from Manali in Himachal Pradesh. As per the agency, both the conspirators are also close associates of the arrested accused Adesh Choudhary and other arrested accused persons in this conspiracy relating to the placement of counterfeit Indian currency notes in the PNB's Civil Lines-based branch in Saharanpur in the case (RC-02/2026/NIA/LKW). On August 29, the NIA said Sadar Bazar police in Saharanpur district received credible information regarding the recovery of counterfeit Indian currency notes with a face value of...

The News Mill
In its August order on digital arrest scams, the Supreme Court recorded a figure that looks like good news. Complaints filed under that label on the national cybercrime portal fell from 1,23,672 in 2024 to 58,239 in 2025, and to 16,377 in the first half of 2026. Two months earlier, the same court heard that total cyber fraud in 2025 came to about Rs 22,495 crore, with complaints up 24 per cent to roughly 2.81 million. That is the Home Ministry data as reported from the 28 July hearing. The crime did not shrink. Its name did. India's answer to impersonation is more official digital contact: verified SIMs, bank alerts, e-notices, KYC calls. Each new official channel is also a new template to forge. Call it the verification paradox. Authority has become a file format The case began in October 2025, when the court took notice of an elderly couple in Ambala who lost Rs 1.05 crore after being shown forged Supreme Court orders. A CBI probe has since traced 238 victims across 67 first-layer accounts, with about Rs 80 crore moving through them and searches at 93 locations in 16 states. Nobody was hacked in that case. The fraudsters supplied paperwork, and the victims did what citizens are told to do with a court notice. The attack surface is the habit of compliance. When obedience to officialdom is the habit, a forged notice only has to look official. Deepfakes remove the last informal check. Justice Joymalya Bagchi observed in July that they can now be used for cheating and impersonation. If a face and a voice can be rendered on demand, I saw the officer on video proves nothing. A Fortinet executive at the India Mobile Congress this week said a single malicious WhatsApp link can turn a phone into a gateway to banking, OTPs and identity documents. That is a vendor's view, but the mechanism is easy to credit. The label moves faster than the law On 28 July the court asked the Centre to create a standalone offence for digital arrest and to legislate on AI-generated deepfakes. The Solicitor General told the bench a draft bill is coming. A statute that defines digital arrest defines a script, and scripts are cheap to change. The falling complaint count is consistent with that. I cannot verify from the published figures where the volume went, but total complaints rose while one category collapsed, which suggests migration to investment, job and insurance pitches rather than retreat. Jammu and Kashmir is not exempt. A senior cyber police officer put J&K's 2025 cybercrime losses at Rs 184.91 crore in January and named digital arrest as the emerging method. In October 2025, a Jammu trader lost about Rs 4.4 crore, and the arrests were made in Gujarat. The victim sat in Jammu. The mule accounts sat elsewhere. Upstream has an owner Prime Minister Narendra Modi told the Congress on 8 October that India wants a global mechanism to stop fraud before it reaches people. Upstream is the right place to fight. Twenty-six banks already use the RBI-linked MuleHunter.AI tool, and the court has told the RBI to circulate a temporary debit-hold procedure. The same status report said WhatsApp did not take adequate action on intelligence from the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre, while Microsoft responded quickly. The recovery side is thin. Rs 18.05 crore has been restored across 36,290 cases. The periods are not like for like, but set beside Rs 22,495 crore in annual losses, it is a rounding error. Only 14 states had notified their state cybercrime coordination centres when the court last looked. There is a second cost. A filter that decides which calls and messages reach a citizen makes telecom operators and platforms the gatekeepers of contact. Kashmir knows what happens when connectivity becomes an administrative decision. A control plane built to stop fraud will be asked, sooner or later, to stop other things. Bottom Line Fraud that borrows the state's face cannot be fixed by giving the state more faces. Verification has to start with the citizen: a call-back number that is never supplied by the caller, a bank hold the account holder can trigger, a court order that never arrives on WhatsApp. Until then, the labels will keep falling, and the losses will not.

Heavy rainfall has triggered severe waterlogging in grain markets across Punjab and Haryana, leading to significant damage to lakhs of quintals of stored paddy. Visuals from the site show rows of grain sacks lying submerged in rainwater, sparking outrage among local farmers. In Fazilka, the grain market was inundated following recent rains, leaving vast quantities of harvested grain soaked and damaged. Farmers at the site highlighted the lack of drainage infrastructure as the primary cause of the destruction. Speaking to ANI, Naresh Kumar, a farmer affected by the flooding, expressed deep frustration over the recurring issue. There is no outlet for the water to recede, which caused us a lot of damage. Several of these sacks belong to me. You can see the condition now. It always rains and water always enters here; had it receded, things would not have been bad, he said. Lamenting the loss of six months of hard work, Kumar added, We have suffered losses. We grew crops for six months,...

Four killed, eight injured in two accidents on Delhi-Mumbai Expressway in MP
Digital Desk | Ratlam, Sep 29 (IANS) At least four people were killed and eight others injured in two separate road accidents on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway in Madhya Pradesh's Ratlam district on Tuesday, police said. The accidents occurred within a span of about two hours on the eight-lane expressway under the jurisdiction of Jaora Industrial police station, with both cars plunging into a 30-40 feet deep gorge after hitting the central median. The first accident took place around 4:30 a.m. when a car carrying a family from Punjab, travelling from Ambala in Haryana to Mumbai, hit the median railing. The vehicle broke through a portion of the railing and fell into the gorge, police said. Narendra Kaur (67) and her daughter-in-law Manpreet Kaur (32), both from Punjab, died in the accident. Three other occupants, including an elderly man and two children, were injured. Prima facie, it appears that the driver may have become drowsy while driving at high speed and lost control of the vehicle, causing it to hit the railing, Jaora Industrial police station in-charge Prakash Gadariya said. Police reached the spot after receiving information from other motorists and shifted the injured to a hospital in Jaora. They were later referred to Ratlam Medical College for further treatment. While police personnel were examining the site of the first accident, another car carrying a family from Dahod in Gujarat met with an accident around 6:30 a.m., police said. The second vehicle, bearing registration number GJ20 CB 4610, reportedly went airborne after hitting the central median and fell into the gorge. The railing at the spot had been damaged in the first accident. Ravi Hatila (35), who was driving the second car, and Ramesh Makwana (50), both from Dahod, were killed. Four to five other occupants of the vehicle were injured. The railing had been damaged in the first accident, and while our personnel were conducting an inspection at the spot, the second car hit the median and fell into the gorge, Gadariya said. The Gujarat family was returning to Dahod after travelling to Uttar Pradesh for medical treatment of a family member. Police have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding both accidents, including the condition of the road infrastructure and the factors that led to the vehicles losing control.

Kerala: CPI intensifies criticism of Pinarayi and LDF after poll defeat
Digital Desk | Kottayam, Sep 18 (IANS) The Communist Party of India (CPI), the second-largest constituent of the Left Democratic Front (LDF), is turning up the heat on its larger ally CPI(M) in the aftermath of the Lefts crushing defeat in the Assembly elections. CPI state secretary Binoy Viswam has now trained his guns directly on the previous LDF government and former Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, accusing the government of failing to protect the toddy industry and its traditional workers. His latest attack comes as the LDF, now in Opposition, is under pressure to explain why it lost several of its traditional strongholds. The CPI(M) itself faced sharp criticism over the electoral debacle at its recent extended state committee meeting. On Friday, speaking at the state conference of the Kerala State Toddy Workers Federation (AITUC) in Vaikom, Viswam said the CPI had repeatedly raised the toddy sectors problems at LDF meetings. The CPI had sought a reduction in the 400-metre distance restriction for toddy shops from places of worship and educational institutions. But the government did not act, he said. At the same time, the distance restriction for bars was reduced to 50 metres. This amounted to two different standards for toddy shops and bars, Viswam alleged. He said Vijayan had admitted at an LDF meeting that the CPIs demand was justified, but nothing was done during the governments five-year term. It is not enough to say that something will be corrected. It has to be corrected, Viswam said. The CPI leader also delivered a broader message on the election defeat. He said the LDF must conduct an honest introspection. Even the Lefts own people did not vote for it in the election, he claimed. The fact that party workers did not vote for the LDF was wrong, he said, but the leadership must also ask why they reached that point. Did we give our comrades enough importance? Did we listen to them? Did we understand them? Viswam asked. He said the LDF should not have lost traditional strongholds such as Vaikom, Taliparamba, Payyannur, Kodungallur and Ambalappuzha. Defeat is defeat. If there was a failure, we must admit that it was a failure, he said. The remarks underline the CPIs growing insistence that the Left cannot explain away the electoral setback without examining the previous government's functioning and its relationship with its own cadre and supporters. For the CPI(M), already facing an internal debate over responsibility for the defeat, the latest criticism from its principal ally adds another layer to the post-poll reckoning.
Delhi Police bust narco-extortion network, seize 2 kg Pakistani-origin heroin
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 18 (IANS) The Delhi Police Special Cell, in a joint operation with the Gujarat Crime Branch, has busted a narco-extortion network operating between Delhi and Gujarat and recovered 2 kg of Pakistani-origin heroin valued at around Rs 12 crore. Police said an accused associated with the Rohit Godara and Mahendra Delana gang was arrested during the operation. The accused has been identified as 31-year-old Kuldeep Swami, a resident of Rajasthan's Churu. According to police, Swami was involved in a major narco-extortion module and was wanted in connection with a high-profile extortion case involving approximately Rs 10 crore registered in Gujarat's Vadodara. During the investigation, police recovered 2 kg of high-quality heroin, a car, and currency notes used for hawala token verification. A secret cavity was also found in the recovered vehicle, police said. Investigators are now probing the alleged links of the network with gangsters Godara and Delana, along with possible connections to Pakistan-based narcotics networks. The latest action comes amid a series of operations by the Delhi Police against criminal networks involved in extortion, narcotics and arms-related offences. Earlier, on August 26, the Delhi Police Special Cell had arrested two alleged sympathisers of the Gogi gang who were reportedly planning to commit extortion-related crimes. Police had identified the accused as 22-year-old Chirag, a resident of Narela, and 26-year-old Sagar, a resident of Haryana's Sonipat. The two were arrested near the Munak Canal on August 19 following a tip-off, officials said. A .32-bore semi-automatic pistol along with four live cartridges, a country-made single-shot pistol and two mobile phones were recovered from their possession, according to a senior police officer. In another case, on March 19, a team of the Delhi Police Special Cell apprehended a proclaimed offender who had allegedly been evading arrest in connection with an Arms Act case registered in Delhi. The accused, identified as 26-year-old Jaswinder Singh, a resident of Haryana's Ambala, was wanted in an FIR registered at Jagatpuri Police Station under Section 125 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and Sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act. Police had said Singh had been absconding since the registration of the case and was subsequently declared a proclaimed offender by a court.
India Designates Shahzad Bhatti Network a Terrorist Organisation Under UAPA
India's Home Ministry has designated the Shahzad Bhatti Network a terrorist organisation under the UAPA, tying a Dubai-based gangster to a string of attacks across India including the Sidhu Moosewala and Baba Siddique killings, grenade attacks in Punjab, and an IED blast near Ambala's Baldev Nagar police station. Investigators say Bhatti operates as an ISI proxy, using drone-smuggled weapons and locally recruited operatives to run hybrid terror operations from outside India's borders. A multi-state crackdown last month saw over 250 people detained and 80+ FIRs filed but Bhatti himself remains at large. Shreya Chandra has moreWatch: https://youtu.be/0x2Ido1wv6I
