Ahead of Polls, Bihar CM announces trust for Maa Janaki Temple at Punaura Dham
PATNA: In a significant move ahead of the Bihar Assembly elections, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Sunday announced the formation of a dedicated trust to accelerate the construction of the Maa Janaki Temple at Punaura Dham in Sitamarhi district. The temple, revered as the birthplace of Goddess Sita, will be developed on the lines of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, with a vision to establish it as a prominent religious and tourist destination of national importance. Speaking about the redevelopment project, Nitish Kumar said that the detailed design plan for the grand temple complex at Punaura Dham had been finalised. Sharing images of the proposed design on social media platform X, the Chief Minister stated: I am very happy to inform you that the design of the grand temple and other structures for the holistic development of Jagat Janani Maa Janakis birthplace, Punaura Dham, Sitamarhi, is now ready. A trust has also been formed to expedite the construction work. The proposed plan includes a majestic 151-foot-high temple structure, broad walkways, and extensive green landscaping, aimed at enhancing both the spiritual and aesthetic experience for devotees. Punaura Dham is considered the most sacred site after Janakpur in Nepal for followers of the Hindu faith, and holds deep religious significance as the birthplace of Maa Sita. The development initiative gains additional significance in light of the consecration of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya earlier this year. Devotees from the Janaki Temple had participated by offering sacred gifts during the Pran Pratishtha ceremony in January 2024. Reiterating his demand to the Centre, Nitish Kumar once again urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to expedite the completion of the Ram-Janaki Marg, which will connect Ayodhya and Sitamarhi. He also called for the introduction of a Vande Bharat train between the two spiritual centres. The Bihar government has committed to acquiring nearly 50 acres of land surrounding the temple to facilitate the development project. Sufficient funds have already been allocated for the timely completion of the ambitious endeavour.

People of Tamil Nadu will defeat Sangh Parivar politics, says VCK chief Thirumavalavan
MADURAI: People of Tamil Nadu will defeat the politics of religion which is practised by Sangh Parivar in northern states, VCK chief Thol Thirumavalavan said. Speaking after taking part in a human chain protest organised by the Madurai Federation for Religious Harmony on Thursday to oppose the Murugan Maanadu, Thirumavalvan said through the protest, people of TN are conveying to the world that they are against religious politics. In northern states Sangh Parivar used religious politics to divide people. They are testing the same in Tamil Nadu. Since 1992, after the Babri Masjid issue, Sangh Parivar has been trying to rake up a controversy in Thiruparankundram and spread hatred against Muslims, he said. BJP leaders like H Raja have made statements that they will convert Tamil Nadu into Ayodhya. But people of Tamil Nadu will never allow it, Thiruma said. He added Now they are making another attempt to woo Mukulathur community by organising the Murugan Maanadu. They will not succeed. We are not against the programme but are worried it will be used by Sangh outfits to unleash violence and destroy brotherhood among people.

Ayodhya police bust Rs 3.85 crore Ram Lalla Prasad scam, mastermind arrested
LUCKNOW: Ayodhya Police busted one of the biggest cyber scams in the history of the temple town involving an online fraud of Rs 3.85 crore carried out in the name of Ram Lalla's prasad. Exploiting the spiritual fervour among devotees following Ram Lallas consecration on January 22, 2024, the accused, posed as a professor at Northeastern University in Seattle and lured lakhs of devotees through a fake website offering Ram temple prasad delivered to their doorsteps. The scam was orchestrated by Ashish Singh, originally from Windsor Park, Indirapuram in Ghaziabad, and currently residing in the United States. He launched a fake portal, khadiorganic.com, just weeks before the 2024 consecration ceremony, collecting orders from over 6.3 lakh domestic and international devotees between December 19, 2023, and January 12, 2024. Ashish Singh was offering free delivery of prasad, temple replicas, and commemorative coins of the Ram temple. However, he charged a facilitation fee of Rs 51 from Indian users and USD 11 from overseas devotees. Through his website, Singh collected payments via multiple digital gateways, including Yes Bank, Paytm, PhonePe, MobiKwik, and IDFC, amassing Rs 10.49 crore in transactions, with Rs 3.85 crore of which was for prasad delivery alone, while the rest came from sales of other items. The scam came to light when Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust noticed suspicious online activity and flagged it to the Ayodhya Cyber Crime Unit. A criminal case was promptly registered under IPC Section 420, IT Act Section 66D, and Section 12(3) of the Passport Act, 1967. Ashish, seemingly confident of managing the fallout, returned to India on January 13 this year and travelled to Ayodhya, perhaps with the motive of some kind of negotiations or for a cover-up. But cybercrime cell sleuths arrested him upon his arrival and later presented him as the mastermind of the online fraud. The police recovered a laptop, two iPhones, Rs 13,970 in cash, USD 16, and a slew of identity and banking documents, including US and Indian ID cards, debit cards, a driving licence from Washington, and a health card. As per the Ayodhya police sources, in a cyber recovery operation, Ayodhya Police successfully refunded Rs 2.15 crore to 3,72,520 victims. Recovery efforts for the remaining Rs 1.70 crore are still underway, said the sources. Praising the cyber cell personnel for their swift and methodical response to the scam, Ayodhya SSP Gaurav Grover said it was a scam built on faith. The accused exploited peoples religious sentiments. However, our teams timely action ensured that faith wasnt betrayed entirely, he said while talking to the media. In recognition of their work, the cyber team was rewarded with Rs 15,000. Meanwhile, the Ayodhya Police urged the citizens to exercise caution, especially while making online payments related to religious services, and to verify the authenticity of any such schemes before paying the money. This case is a lesson in digital vigilance, said SSP Grover, adding that faith should never come at the cost of caution.

Additionally, Govind Dev Giri, a member of the Trust, felicitated Yogi Adityanath. After the rituals, CM greeted the select people who were invited to the ceremony. Earlier, he also offered prayers at the Hanuman Garhi Mandir in Ayodhya as a part of his schedule to attend Pran Pratishtha. Expressing his gratitude, the CM took to X and wrote about being a part of the Pran Pratishtha ceremony. Today, in the holy birthplace of Lord Shri Ram, Ayodhya Dham, I am getting the great fortune of becoming a witness to the programme organised for the Pran-Pratishtha of the holy idols of deities in the eight temples including Shri Ram Darbar on the first floor of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple, he said in the post. He also called the occasion a new expression of 'Ek Bharat-Shrestha Bharat' and a victory for Lord Ram. Sharing the details of the event, Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust posted on X that the first day of the ceremony involved rituals initiated in Yagyashala, specially curated for the event. These rituals continued on the second day as well in which various Anushthans and the Utsav Vigrahas were taken on a Parikrama of the mandir premises. Along with Ram Darbar, the consecration of idols of Lord Shiva, Lord Ganesha, Lord Hanuman, Lord Surya, Goddess Bhagwati, Goddess Annapurna, and Sheshavtar in seven other temples on the premises also took place.

As per the temple trust sources, the ornaments were brought to Ayodhya through a chartered plane and handed over to the temple trust. Unlike the first consecration ceremony to which over 3000 guests were invited, for the second consecration, the temple trust had invited 350 guests, including the trust members, saints and seers from across the country.

Priests Explain Day 1 Of Ram Temple Pran Pratishtha 2.0, What's Lined Up Today

Yogi cabinet approves 20% quota for Agniveers in UP police, highest in any state
LUCKNOW: The Uttar Pradesh government on Tuesday announced 20% reservation for Agniveers in the direct recruitment process for various positions in government jobs including police constable, mounted police, fireman, and PAC constable. The decision was taken at a meeting of the state cabinet, presided over by UP CM Yogi Adityanath here. The Agniveers, after completing their stint in the Indian Army, will also get a relaxation of three years in age while applying for these jobs. However, only those who are permanent residents of Uttar Pradesh will be eligible for this benefit. Briefing media persons after the cabinet meeting, UP Finance Minister Suresh Khanna said that other states like Haryana and Odisha, and forces like CISF and BSF, had the provision of 10% reservation for Agniveers, making UPs offer the highest so far. The first batch of Agniveers is expected to be available for recruitment by 2026. Highlighting the state's efforts to provide meaningful post-service opportunities to Agniveers completing their four-year term under the Agnipath scheme, Khanna explained that the reservation would be applicable across all categories, including general, SC, ST, and OBC. This is a significant decision. The reservation will be applicable across categories general, SC, ST, and OBC. If an Agniveer belongs to the SC, the reservation will apply within SC category; if OBC, then within OBC category, he elaborated. Recruitment under this new reservation policy will cover four categories: constable police, constable PAC, mounted police, and fireman. The first batch of recruits through this reservation system is expected to be inducted by 2026. Khanna said this initiative seeks to ensure that Agniveers continued to contribute significantly to the state's security infrastructure even after their military service. The Agnipath scheme, introduced by the central government in 2022, aimed at short-term induction of personnel into the Army, Navy and Air Force, seeks to reduce the age profile within these services. Uttar Pradesh's new policy is in alignment with this central scheme, further facilitating the continued contribution of Agniveers. This reservation move would provide Agniveers concrete opportunities to integrate into civilian roles within the state's security apparatus. Khanna added that it not only recognised their service but would ensure that they continue contributing to the nations security infrastructure after their military stint. The policy is expected to set a precedent and possibly influence other states to reassess their approaches towards reserving positions for former Agniveers, said the UP Finance Minister. The other major decisions taken at the cabinet meeting included Uttar Pradesh Bed & Breakfast (B&B) and Homestay Policy 2025 to boost religious and heritage tourism. Under this policy, residences with 1 to 6 rooms could be licensed for homestays. Moreover, a district-level committee headed by the district magistrate will handle the licensing process. Visitors can stay up to seven days at a time, with a longer stay requiring notification. Licence fees would range from Rs 500 to Rs 3500. The scheme will be implemented in major religious and tourist cities like Ayodhya, Mathura-Vrindavan and Varanasi. Annapurna Bhawans for ration distribution To improve the Public Distribution System (PDS), the cabinet approved the construction of Annapurna Bhawans across all districts. These 484 sq. ft. buildings will be vehicle-accessible and allow ration dealers to sell additional food items. So far, 3,524 buildings have been built in rural areas and another 2,000 are under construction. The target is to construct 75 buildings in each district annually. A budget of Rs 266 crore has been allocated. Khanna said the funds would come from MGNREGA, MP/MLA funds, and development schemes like Bundelkhand and Purvanchal Funds.

IATA hails growth of India's aviation sector, flags global challenges
NEW DELHI: India's aviation sector is in sharp ascent, driven by robust government support and aggressive expansion by airlines such as IndiGo and Air India, said Willie Walsh, Director General of the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Speaking at the IATA Annual General Meeting here on Monday, Walsh praised Indias proactive approach. The aviation sector has been accorded much priority in India with investments by the government as well as airlines like IndiGo and Air India, he noted, contrasting it with the cap of 32 million passengers at Dublin Airport. Such artificial caps like that being in Dublin should not be enforced. IndiGo CEO Pieter Elbers highlighted Indias integrated growth model, with second airports planned for Delhi and Mumbai. Every rupee invested in aviation gives a return of Rs 3, every dollar gives three dollars in return. A single job created in aviation creates six jobs in other areas, he said. Elbers added that India, now the worlds fourth-largest economy, is set to surpass Germany by 2027. Aviation is an integral part of economic growth, he said and urged for aster development of MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul) infrastructure. On geopolitical tensions and closed airspace, Walsh said the sector remains adaptable. When airspace is closed, airlines will quickly adapt and find alternative routes. He raised concern over blocked airline funds in some countries. The profit margins are just 3.7%, and no airlines can afford to have funds trapped in the hands of the government, he warned. Walsh cast doubt on the 2050 net-zero carbon goal. Fuel companies are passing on the burden to airline companies... but are not adhering to the mandate, he said. IATA economist Marie Thomsen said that the sector earned $36 billion in 2024just 3.7% marginlargely from passengers. Fuel remains the biggest cost, at 26%. Each Middle East passenger brought in $27.2, versus just $1.3 in Africa, she said, citing uneven growth. 'India creating infra at an unparalleled pace' No other country in the world was creating infrastructure at the pace India was doing with nine airports and three metro rail networks being built every year, said Amitabh Kant, G20 Sherpa and former CEO of NITI Aayog. Taking part in a panel discussion on India: A case study in connectivity driving development, Kant said this was in addition to 30 km of road and 12 km of rail network being built on a daily basis. The country presently has 150 airports and it would go up to 400 airports in the future and this would connect three-fourths of the country. The demographic dividend was a big plus for India, he pointed out. By 2040, India will have 30% of the skilled manpower in the world. It would become like what Japan was in the seventies. Top professionals in the hotel industry would emerge from India, he said. The tariffs imposed by the Trump administration and the conflicts across the globe were impacting the industry, Kant added. Radhika Gupta, MD and CEO, Edelweiss Asset Management Limited, called for creating Region to Region connectivity and City to City connectivity. However, she cautioned against creating ghost airports like the ones in Pragyaraj and Ayodhya which were developed grandly for the Kumbh Mela but are not having much patronage presently.

Ram Mandir ready for second phase of Lord Rams consecration; eight new temples to be unveiled
LUCKNOW: The Ram Mandir in Ayodhya has been decked up to its divine glory for the second phase of consecration of Lord Ram as King along with his family and courtiers in Ram Darbar on the first floor of the temple. This will be done through a three-day ceremony comprising Vedic Mantrochaar and rituals commencing on Tuesday, June 3 and concluding on Thursday, June 5. Along with the enthronement of Lord Ram in Ram Darbar, eight newly constructed Devalayas (temples of different deities) on the Parkota (outer wall) of the temple premises will also be consecrated during the ceremony starting June 3. As per Shri Ramjanmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust general secretary Champat Rai, the three-day event will commence on Jyeshtha Shukla Ashtami (June 3, 2025) and conclude on Dashami (June 5, 2025) with worship, bhog, and aarti. Rituals will begin daily at 6.30 am. On June 3 and 4, the pujan will continue from 6.30 am until the evening. On Jyeshtha Shukla Dashami (June 5), pujan will start at 6.30 am and continue until 11.20 am. The Pran Pratishtha will take place at 11.25 am, in Abhijit Muhurat on the day of Ganga Dussehra (June 5), followed by pujan, bhog, and aarti. All events on this day will conclude by 1.00 pm, Rai said. Each of the eight newly-built temples enshrines the Vigrah (idol) of revered Shastriya Devtas. While elaborating on each of the eight idols, Rai said that the consecration of a Shivlinga would be held in the north-east direction of the temple premises. In the Southeast (Agni Kon), Lord Ganesha will be worshipped; at the centre of the Southern arm of the temple, the consecration of a vigraha of Lord Hanuman will take place. Similarly, in Southwest (Nairitya Kon), Lord Surya, in the Northwest (Vayavya Kon), Goddess Bhagwati, and at the centre of the Northern arm of the temple, consecration of the idol of Maa Annapurna will be performed, Rai added. Moreover, in the Southwestern corner of the Mandir Complex, the Pran Pratishtha of the idol of Sheshavatar will be held. Additionally, seven temples within the Sapt Mandapam, featuring statues of Maharishi Valmiki, Vishwamitra, Agastya, Vashistha, Nishadraj, Ahilya, and Shabari, are also ready. Champat Rai also said that on the eve of Pran Pratishtha, June 2, 2025, a Jal Kalash Yatra would commence from the banks of the River Sarayu. The Saryu Jal Kalash Yatra, comprising hundreds of women from the temple town, began from the eastern bank of the old bridge at 4 pm on Monday. The Yatra proceeded through Veena Chowk, Ram Path, Shringar Haat, Hanuman Garhi, Dashrath Mahal, Ramkot, and Rangmahal Barrier, before concluding at the Yagyashala curated for conducting the consecration ceremony, where 101 high priests from Kashi and Ayodhya will hold puja and Vedic rituals for the next three days. While dissuading people from adjoining districts from thronging Ayodhya in large numbers to witness the consecration, Champat Rai said the hardships of a sweeping heat wave would cause huge inconvenience to the public. The ceremony will take place in the presence of around 100 people including UP CM Yogi Adityanath, said the temple trust general secretary. He, however, said that the final decision regarding the opening of the temples for public darshan has yet to be determined. Access to Shri Ram Darbar on the first floor will be restricted, with possibly only 50 devotees permitted per hour through passes issued by the trust. Meanwhile, a gold-plated 'kalash' is being installed on the pinnacle of the main temple ahead of the upcoming consecration of the Ram Darbar on June 5.

No entry for Muslims at the gym: Bhopal sub-inspector's remarks trigger row
BHOPAL: A sub-inspector of the Madhya Pradesh police has been removed from active duty and attached to police lines after a video surfaced showing him instructing a gym owner to bar Muslim individuals from entering the premises. The 40-second clip, now widely shared on social media, shows Sub-Inspector Dinesh Sharma, posted at Ayodhya Nagar police station in Bhopal, seated with Bajrang Dal activists at a private gym. In the video, Sharma is heard telling the gym owner, Let me tell you clearly, no Muslim will come here (to the gym), neither for imparting training nor getting trained. Following the videos circulation, Bhopal polices Additional DCP Mahavir Singh confirmed that an internal inquiry has been initiated. An internal probe has been ordered and the concerned sub-inspector who was posted at Ayodhya Nagar police station now stands attached to the police line, Singh said. The incident is believed to have occurred several days ago when Bajrang Dal activists visited the gym in Ayodhya Nagar, objecting to the presence of Muslim trainers. Police were called to the scene to manage the situation, during which the video was reportedly recorded. The Bajrang Dals opposition to Muslim trainers has extended beyond Bhopal, with similar activities reported in Indore, Madhya Pradeshs largest city. Their campaign gained momentum following the arrest of Mohsin Khan, a shooting coach accused of running an illegal shooting academy and allegedly involved in cases of rape and molestation. In another case fueling tensions, a 40-year-old man, Dinesh Mishracoincidentally sharing a name with the sub-inspector but unrelatedallegedly attempted suicide in Indore. In his suicide note, he blamed his wife and her Muslim gym trainer for destroying his life. The situation in Bhopal has further escalated with controversial remarks from newly elected BJP MP and former mayor Alok Sharma. Addressing supporters on Sunday, Sharma announced plans to compile a list of gyms employing Muslim trainers and stated that female clients should only be trained by female instructors. The list will soon be handed over to the police, which will then do its job. Madhya Pradesh has Dr Mohan Yadavs government, which will not allow Love Jihad or Land Jihad to happen anywhere, Sharma said. Sharma also drew criticism for opposing the late-night operation of shops in Muslim-majority areas like Qazi Camp and Shahjahanabad. When shops in all other markets... are closed at 10 pm, how come shops at Qazi Camp and other areas be allowed to be open the entire night? Are those markets located in Pakistan? he questioned, demanding police action through a formal memorandum. Responding to Sharmas statements, Congress MLA from Bhopal-Central, Arif Masood, dismissed the remarks as political theatrics. He (Sharma) is doing all this to increase his TRP, Masood said.

Ram Mandir: Will The Ayodhya Temple Be Closed Next Week For New Round Of Pran Pratishtha?
NEW DELHI: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Thursday said it has busted a cyber crime syndicate by arresting six of its alleged members, who targeted Japanese citizens as their victims. The six accused were apprehended following searches at 19 locations in Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, officials in the agency said. They said the accused have been identified as Ashu Singh (Delhi); Kapil Ghakhar (Panipat, Haryana); Rohit Maurya from Ayodhya; and Shubham Jaiswal, Vivek Raj and Adarsh Kumar from Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh. As part of its ongoing efforts to combat cyber-enabled financial crimes under Operation Chakra-V, the CBI on May 28 conducted coordinated searches... the operation culminated in the arrest of six key operatives and the dismantling of two illegal call centres engaged in a sophisticated transnational tech support scam targeting Japanese citizens, the agency said in an official statement after conducting Operation Chakra-V. The CBI had earlier registered a case based on credible intelligence indicating the existence of a cyber crime syndicate cheating foreign nationals, particularly those from Japan, by posing as technical support personnel from reputed multinational corporations, including Microsoft. The syndicate operated call centres through which prospective victims were deceived into believing that their electronic devices were compromised. On this pretext, they were coerced into transferring funds into mule accounts for fixing the problem. After registering the case, the CBI worked in close coordination with the National Police Agency of Japan and Microsoft Corporation. This collaborative international engagement proved critical in identifying the perpetrators and tracing the operational structure of the syndicates, ultimately leading to the successful crackdown in India, it said. Initial analysis of the materials gathered so far confirm that the scam leveraged advanced social engineering techniques and technical subterfuge to manipulate victims and extract money under false pretences, said an official.
