Move to redraw boundaries of Sariska Tiger Reserve to facilitate mining draws flak from experts
A coalition of environmentalists has made urgent appeals to the Union government, Rajasthan government and Tiger Conservation Authority, voicing their concerns over the proposal to alter the boundaries of the Sariska Tiger Reserve (STR) in order to facilitate mining activities in the Aravalli hills. They emphasized that this decision could set a troubling precedent and have a negative impact on wildlife conservation efforts across the country. In early July, Indias wildlife authority approved changes to the boundaries of the STR as part of a conservation plan that also accommodates mining activities. The adjustment affects both the Critical Tiger Habitat (CTH) and the buffer zone, aiming to enhance wildlife conservation while taking into account the development needs of nearby regions. Experts warn that if the proposed rationalization plan is implemented, it could have disastrous consequences for the ecologically sensitive Aravalli region. The environmental group People for Aravallis submitted representations to the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, the Chief Minister of Rajasthan, and the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA), expressing concerns about the recent proposal to redraw the boundaries of the Sariska Tiger Reserve. According to the group, the decision to redraw the boundaries aims to allow the reopening of at least 50 marble, dolomite, limestone, and masonry mines that were closed following a previous Supreme Court order. Activists argue that this could set a dangerous precedent across the country, legitimizing similar illegal activities. The group submitted three representations on July 14 to Indias Environment Minister, the Additional Director General (Project Tiger), and the Chief Minister of Rajasthan, urging them to abandon the proposal to redraw the boundaries of the STR, as it is flawed from both an ecological and legal standpoint, said Kay Nair, Co-Founder of People for Aravallis. Joy as tigress at Sariska gives birth to four cubs A significant concern in the proposed plan is its potential to reopen around 50 marble, dolomite, limestone, and masonry stone mines near the new boundaries of the reserve, Nair added. As per the guidelines for declaration of eco-sensitive zones around protected areas, an area of up to 10 km radius may be included as a shock absorber. The buffer zone is currently established to be a radius of 1 km around the boundaries of STR. Uma Shanker Singh, retired Principal Chief Conservator of Forest from Uttar Pradesh, who is one of the 37 retired IFS officers who wrote to the Prime Minister in February 2025 highlighting the damage to the Aravalli range as a result of mining and other activities, urged the government at the Centre and in the four Aravalli states to take urgent steps to protect Aravalli. Allowing mining in an eco-sensitive zone such as Sariska can have serious long-term harmful impacts on its flora & fauna. Blasting and mining activities hugely put the wildlife at risk, said Singh. In 2004, poaching resulted in the killing of 28 tigers in Sariska, and their number was reduced to zero. Later, tigers were relocated to Sariska from Ranthambore. After many years of successful conservation efforts, the tiger count in Sariska stands at a historic high of 49. In 1992, the government regulated development activities in the Aravallis spanning across the Gurgaon and Alwar districts of Haryana and Rajasthan through notifications. Later, in 2018, the Centrally Empowered Committee report had revealed that mining had razed 31 Aravalli hills of Alwar district to the ground. The government and the Supreme Court must scrap the ecologically disastrous proposal to redraw boundaries of Sariska which is not in the interest of protecting our national animal and instead benefits the miners, said Dr Rajendra Singh, a water conservationist from Rajasthan.

DC Edit | Let Tennis Players Murder Be An Eye-Opener
The brutal murder of 25-year-old tennis player Radhika Yadav by her father in Gurgaon reflects a society that continues to be tethered to patriarchal norms, despite its economic development and exposure to the world.
The postmortem report of former tennis player Radhika Yadav has contradicted key claims made in the FIR registered against her father, Deepak Yadav, who is accused of killing her at their home in Gurugrams Sushant Lok on Thursday. According to a report by India Today , Dr Deepak Mathur, a member of the Gurgaon Government Hospital Board and surgeon, confirmed in a telephonic conversation that Radhika sustained four gunshot wounds, all located on her chest. He added that the bullets were removed from her body and sent for forensic examination. This revelation is at odds with the FIR, which stated that Deepak had fired three bullets at his daughter from behind. The discrepancy has raised fresh questions about the sequence of events leading to the 25-year-olds death and the accuracy of the accuseds confession. Police had earlier said Deepak Yadav admitted to shooting his daughter after being taunted for living off her income. On Friday, a court remanded him in police custody for one day. The FIR, filed on the complaint of Radhika's uncle Kuldeep Yadav, stated that the incident occurred around 10:30 am. Kuldeep, who lives on the ground floor of the familys double-storey home in Sector 57, said he heard a loud noise and rushed upstairs, where he found Radhika lying in a pool of blood in the kitchen. A licensed .32 bore revolver, believed to be the murder weapon, was found in the drawing room. Kuldeep and his son Piyush rushed Radhika to a private hospital in Sector 56, where doctors declared her dead on arrival. The FIR also mentions that Radhika, her father Deepak, and her mother Manju lived on the first floor, while Kuldeep and his family stayed on the ground floor. Radhika's brother, Dheeraj, was not present at the time of the incident. While initial police reports claimed that Radhika was shot around 2 pm, Kuldeep Yadavs version places the timing much earlier. The police also said earlier that Deepak had fired at least five rounds, three of which struck Radhika from behind, a claim now challenged by the postmortem. Radhika's mother was reportedly in the house at the time. Police are now probing what she was doing when the incident occurred. Earlier statements had said she was on the ground floor and rushed upstairs after hearing the gunshots, which she mistook for a pressure cooker blast. Police said the motive appeared to be a long-standing dispute between the father and daughter over the tennis academy Radhika operated. Radhika used to run a tennis academy, and her father was not happy with it, said Gurugram Police spokesperson Sandeep Singh to news agency PTI. Radhika, who had won several trophies as a professional tennis player, was described by her uncle as a talented and driven young woman. I am shocked that my brother could do this, he said. Sources have also indicated that Radhika's growing interest in becoming a social media influencer may have contributed to tensions with her father. Following her death, a music video titled KARWAAN , featuring the young tennis player, has surfaced online, prompting speculation about its possible link to the motive behind the murder. According to the AITA website, Radhika Yadav played in qualifying rounds of tournaments in Indore and Kuala Lumpur earlier this year. She held an ITF ranking of 1999, with a career-best AITA Under-18 ranking of 75 and women's singles ranking of 35. She was very promising in her junior days and wanted to start an academy to train future players, AITA official Anil Dhupar told PTI. Haryana Tennis Association president Suman Kapur said Radhika was part of the Haryana team during the 2023 National Games but later did not make the state squad. Her academy was not registered with HTA, and we have little information about her coaching activities, Kapur added. (With inputs from PTI)

Police deployed cranes to remove stranded vehicles. A cave-in on Southern Peripheral Road worsened the situation. Fallen trees added to the chaos. Residents expressed frustration over the flooding. Cleanup operations are currently underway in Gurugram.

NEW DELHI: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has unearthed a wide-ranging corruption racket involving irregularities in the inspection and regulatory processes of medical colleges across India, registering a First Information Report (FIR) that names 36 accused individuals, including former University Grants Commission (UGC) Chairman D P Singh and several officials from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. D P Singh, who currently serves as the Chancellor of the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), headed the UGC from 2018 to 2021. Other accused include senior officials from the National Medical Commission (NMC) and representatives of private medical colleges nationwide. According to the FIR, a copy of which is with TNIE, the case centres around an extensive criminal conspiracy involving the unauthorised sharing of confidential regulatory information, manipulation of statutory inspections, and widespread bribery to grant favourable outcomes to private institutions. CBI officials said the leaked data included inspection schedules, names of assessors, and internal assessments. This allowed medical colleges to stage fraudulent conditions for inspections including deploying ghost faculty members, admitting fake patients, tampering with biometric attendance systems, and bribing assessors for favourable reports. The FIR alleges that health ministry officials photographed internal files including confidential remarks by senior officials and shared them via personal devices with intermediaries linked to private colleges. Among those allegedly involved in receiving or distributing the leaked data are Virendra Kumar of Gurgaon, Manisha Joshi of Dwarka in New Delhi, and prominent medical education figures such as Suresh Singh Bhadoria, chairman of Index Medical College in Indore, and Mayur Raval, registrar of Geetanjali University in Udaipur. Virendra Kumar is said to have had close ties with Jitu Lal Meena, then a whole-time member of the Medical Assessment and Rating Board (MARB). Meena allegedly received bribes through hawala transactions facilitated by Kumar, who reportedly distributed funds to secure regulatory favours. Officials claim part of the illicit funds was used to finance the construction of a Hanuman temple in Rajasthan at an estimated cost of 75 lakh. The FIR also outlines the southern network of the racket, reportedly run by B Hari Prasad from Kadiri, Andhra Pradesh. Working with his associates Ankam Rambabu in Hyderabad and Krishna Kishore in Visakhapatnam, Prasad was allegedly instrumental in arranging dummy faculty and facilitating backdoor regulatory approvals for bribes.

PATNA: Hours after RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav asked JD(U) supremo and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar to take serious note of Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Sainis remarks on the future CM of Bihar, deputy chief minister and senior BJP leader Samrat Choudhary clarified on Monday that Nitish would continue to lead the NDA alliance for the next term. Speaking at the launch of Dr Ambedkar Samagra Seva Abhiyan, Choudhary reiterated that the upcoming assembly elections would be fought under Nitishs leadership. He will continue to serve as chief minister for the next term as well, he said, adding that the NDA government under Nitishs leadership would take the state forward. Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini had on Sunday sparked controversy by projecting Choudhary as Bihars future CM during an event in Gurgaon. TheBJPs victory march should continue from Haryana to Bihar. The flag of victory would be unfurled in Bihar by Samrat Choudhary, Saini said. Reacting to Saini's remark, Tejashwi Yadav said on Monday, The JD(U) must take serious note of the comment. Saini is a member of the BJP national executive. He appears to have revealed what the party's top leadership has decided, but is not making public. It is now clear that the BJP is unwilling to let Nitish continue as CM. Already he seems to be powerless. His persona is being used as a mask and the JD(U) is being run by people like (Union minister) Rajiv Ranjan Singh alias Lalan and (working president) Sanjay Kumar Jha, both of whom have sold themselves to the BJP,he added. Countering Tejashwis allegations, Choudhary said, The NDA government is united and will contest the assembly elections under Nitishs leadership. He is and will remain the face of NDA in Bihar. JD(U), a major ally of the BJP, also tried to downplay the controversy, saying that there is no doubt over Nitishs leadership in the assembly elections. Top leaders of BJP have already said that Nitish Kumar will remain the face of NDA in Bihar and will continue to serve as CM for the next term as well, JD(U) MLC Neeraj Kumar said. Samrat Choudary during his speech, also reacted to Tejashwi Yadav's allegations that BJP was anti-Dalit and anti-reservation. Referring to Tejashwis claim that two universities were created out of the approval of 10 universities under the RJD regime, Choudhary said that altogether 23 universities were built under Nitishs regime. This is a reality, and anybody can check it from the records of the state government, he added. Highlighting the objective behind the launch of Dr Ambedkar Samagra Seva Abhiyan, the deputy chief minister said that it was aimed at fulfilling Ambedkar's dreams of inclusive development. Under the campaign, Dalits hamlets would be provided basic amenities like drains, connecting roads and potable water. The officials concerned will also verify whether the people living in Dalit hamlets were getting benefits of Ujjwala Yojna and Ayushman Bharat. If any lapses are found, corrective measures will be taken immediately, he asserted.
