NEW DELHI: The case of two women migrant workers from West Bengal, who were deported to Bangladesh, was raised in Rajya Sabha on Thursday by Trinamool Congress MP Sagarika Ghose, who questioned the hurry in deporting the women without proper verification. Raising the issue in the Rajya Sabha in the Zero Hour, Ghose also mentioned the Goa nightclub fire incident, and said most of those who died were migrant workers. On June 21, Sunali Khatun, a 26-year-old heavily pregnant migrant worker, was picked up with her family by the Delhi police and deported to Bangladesh with her family, including her son. Another Bangladeshi migrant worker in Delhi, 32-year-old Sweety and her family were also picked up by Delhi Police and sent to Bangladesh, Ghose said. She said Sunali Khatun could return to India only after the intervention of the Calcutta High Court and the Supreme Court. She said the Supreme Court questioned the hot haste and the deportation without a fair hearing, and added that a Home Ministry memo of 2025 says immediate deportation is allowed only in emergent circumstances. Why this desire to deport Sunali Khatun and Sweety Bibi without due process? Is it simply because of a political motive to call Bangla speaking people infiltrators and ghuspatiya? she said. Sunali, a pregnant woman who, along with two of her family members and others, was pushed into Bangladesh in June this year on suspicion of being an illegal immigrant, had returned to India through the Malda border on December 6 with her eight-year-old son following the Supreme Court's intervention. Sweety and her two sons, Qurban Sheikh (17) and Imam Dewan (6), were detained by police in Delhi from the same neighbourhood as Sunali on suspicion of being Bangladeshi nationals and subsequently pushed across the border on June 27. Ghose said Bengali-speaking migrant workers in Delhi and Gurgaon are being hreatened. In Vasant Kunj's Jai Hind Bengali colony, Bangla-speaking migrants are daily threatened. Bangla-speaking migrant workers in Delhi and Gurgaon have found it particularly difficult, since local police brand them as Bangladeshi, when they are bonafied citizens of this country with all identity papers, she said. She also mentioned the Goa nightclub fire, in which 25 people were killed. When a terrible fire at a Goa nightclub killed 25 people over the weekend, many of those who died were migrant labour. When in 2020 Covid lockdown was clamped with a four hour notice it was again migrant labour who suffered the most, she said.
IndiGo cancels 60 flights from Bengaluru; CEO Piter Elbers to appear before DGCA
MUMBAI: Crisis-hit IndiGo cancelled 60 flights from Bengaluru Airport on Thursday, as safety watchdog DGCA tightened its scrutiny following large-scale disruptions in services on account of planning failures related to the implementation of new pilot and crew duty norms, a source said. IndiGo has cancelled 60 flights -- 32 arrivals and 28 departures from Bengaluru Airport, the source said. Meanwhile, IndiGo CEO Piter Elbers has been summoned by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to submit a comprehensive report, including data and updates, on the recent operational disruptions on Thursday. On Wednesday, IndiGo cancelled 220 flights from across three key airports -- Delhi, Bengaluru and Mumbai, with Delhi seeing the most cancellations at 137. On Wednesday, IndiGo Chairman Vikram Mehta spoke for the first time in 10 days about the crisis, apologising for the chaos and attributing the massive disruptions to a combination of internal and external unanticipated events. These include minor technical glitches, scheduled changes linked to the start of the Winter season, adverse weather conditions, increased congestion in the aviation system, and implementation of/ and operation under the updated crew rostering rules, Mehta said. It is significant to note here that other Indian carriers also faced these unanticipated external events , but their operations remained largely unaffected. It is pertinent to mention that, IndiGo has seen its pilots' strength depleting by 378 pilots in the last nine months despite its chief operating officer and Accountable Manager, Isidro Porqueras stating to the DGCA in a letter last December that he overall impact of implementing the proposed changes above (now-implemented FDTL) norms would amount to an approximate 3 per cent increase in crewing requirements. As per a reply in Parliament to a member's question earlier this year, IndiGo had employed 5,463 pilots as of March 20, 2025. However, as per data presented by Minister of State for Civil Aviation Murlidhar Mohol on December 8 in reply to a Member's question, IndiGo had employed 5,085 pilots. Keeping a tight watch on IndiGo's operations, the DGCA has decided to station its personnel at IndiGo's headquarters, as it steps up oversight on India's largest airline, which continues to cancel dozens of flights despite saying operations have stabilised. The DGCA has formed an oversight team of eight senior captains, and two of them, along with two government officials, will be stationed at IndiGo's Gurgaon headquarters to monitor cancellation status, crew deployment, unplanned leave, and routes hit by staff shortages. These teams will submit a daily report to the regulator, as per an order. Pilots' body Federation of Indian Pilots (FIP) in the recent past alleged that while all other airlines have provisioned pilots adequately and remain largely unaffected due to timely planning and preparation, the current disruption at IndiGo was the direct consequence of the airline's prolonged and unorthodox lean manpower strategy across departments, particularly in flight operations. Despite the two-year preparatory window before full FDTL implementation, the airline inexplicably adopted a hiring freeze, entered non-poaching arrangements, maintained a pilot pay freeze through cartel-like behaviour, and demonstrated other short-sighted planning practices, it said.

IndiGo crisis: DGCA deploys oversight team at airline's Gurgaon HQ; flight ops under lens
In response to recent flight disruptions that have left many passengers stranded, the Civil Aviation Ministry has established a specialized oversight team to oversee IndiGo's operations. This proactive step aims to mitigate the inconvenience caused by extensive delays and cancellations.

Delhi fourth most polluted city in India; all top 10 cities from Haryana, UP: Study
CHANDIGARH: Delhi ranked fourth among the most polluted cities in the country in November, as per a report released by Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA). Ghaziabad topped the list, followed by Noida, Bahadurgarh, Delhi, Hapur, Greater Noida, Baghpat, Sonipat, Meerut and Rohtak. Despite a significant reduction in stubble-burning, 20 out of 29 cities in National Capital Region (NCR) recorded higher pollution levels than the previous year. Punjab and Haryana had been blamed in the past for being the primary cause of air pollution in the NCR; the two states have registered an 80 to 90 per cent drop in farm fire cases over the last four years. The Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA)s November 2025 Monthly Air Quality Snapshot, draws data from real-time continuous ambient air quality monitoring stations (CAAQMS) PM2.5. The report indicates a substantial deterioration in air quality across the country. Ghaziabad emerged as the most polluted city in the country in November this year with a monthly average PM2.5 concentration of 224 g/m, violating the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) on every day of the month, the report stated. It further said the city experienced 19 Very Poor days, 10 Severe days, and one Poor day. The report further reads, Uttar Pradesh accounted for six of the top ten cities, followed by Haryana with three, along with Delhi. All cities in the top 10 list recorded higher PM2.5 levels than the previous year, except for Delhi. Delhi ranked as the fourth most polluted city, recording a monthly average PM2.5 concentration of 215 g/m in November, about twice its October level of 107 g/m. The city experienced 23 Very Poor days, six Severe days, and one Poor day throughout November, the report stated. Despite widespread pollution, the contribution of stubble burning was an average of 7 per cent in November, down from 20 per cent last year. Peak contributions of stubble burning reached 22 per cent, significantly lower than 38 per cent recorded in the previous year. Except for Bahadurgarh, none of the top ten cities recorded even a single day within the safe daily NAAQS limit. Several other cities, including Charkhi Dadri, Bulandshahr, Jind, Muzaffarnagar, Gurgaon, Khurja, Bhiwani, Karnal, Yamunanagar and Faridabad, also recorded PM2.5 levels above NAAQS every day of the month. Sonipat recorded very poor' air quality with PM 2.5 at 121-250 g/m on 29 of the 30 days, while Bahadurgarh remained the second most polluted with a PM 2.5 average of 215 g/m, it added. While seven cities of Punjab exceeded the standard as Mandi Gobindgarh was the most polluted in Punjab with PM 2.5 at 93 g/m. Despite a significant reduction in stubble-burning influence, 20 out of 29 NCR cities recorded higher pollution levels than the previous year, and many still did not register a single day within NAAQS limits. This clearly indicates that the dominant drivers are year-round sources such as transport, industry, power plants, and other combustion sources. Without sector-specific emission cuts, cities will continue to breach standards, said Manoj Kumar, analyst at CREA. At the state level, Rajasthan had the largest number of polluted cities, with 23 of 34 exceeding the NAAQS in November. Haryana had 22 of 25 such cities, while Uttar Pradesh had 14 of 20 above the standard. Pollution levels were also high across other states, with 9 of 12 cities in Madhya Pradesh, 9 of 14 in Odisha, and 7 of 8 in Punjab recording concentrations above NAAQS.
From a Vision to a Trusted Name - The Inspiring Journey of Property Master and Its Leadership Duo
In 2009, when Faridabads real estate was buzzing with possibilities, homebuyers and investors still longed for guidance they could genuinely trust. It was in this moment of opportunity that two driven entrepreneurs, Paras Rai and Goldi Arora, came together with a shared vision to redefine how people experienced property decisions. They believed the market deserved more clarity, more honesty, and a more professional approach, and they set out to deliver exactly that. From a modest office with big dreams, they built Property Master on the simple but powerful idea that real estate should feel transparent, reassuring, and human. Over the years, this vision has expanded beyond Faridabad to Mohali and Gurugram, helping clients across multiple regions navigate real estate with confidence. From a Vision to a Trusted Name The Inspiring Journey of Property Master and Its Leadership Duo Founders Complementary Strengths What truly fuelled Property Masters rise was the complementary strength that Paras Rai and Goldi Arora brought into their partnership. Goldi, a graduate of MJP Rohilkhand University, stepped into real estate with a natural flair for people, communication, and business development. Over the years, he built an impressive network of satisfied clients and some of the biggest sellers in Greater Faridabad through his honest dealings, strong relationships, and instinctive marketing expertise. As Managing Director, he led from the frontdeveloping new services, strengthening client connections, expanding the companys reach, and nurturing a 50-member marketing team with tireless dedication. Complementing him perfectly was Paras, a Delhi University commerce graduate with a diploma in IT who brought a structured, analytical approach to real estate advisory. Paras quickly earned a name as a transparent, detail-oriented professional whose financial acumen helped investors make informed, profitable decisions. His deep involvement in portfolio management, asset planning, and investor education steadily grew the companys investor base and reinforced Property Masters reputation for credibility. Beyond business, both founders share a strong commitment to social welfare and community upliftment. Together, Goldi and Paras form a formidable leadership duoone driven by people and strategy, the other by finance and precisionshaping Property Master into a brand built on trust, expertise, and purpose. Building Property Master as a Trusted Brand From the early days of shared ambition, Property Master steadily grew into one of the most trusted real estate advisory brands across Faridabad and Mohali, driven not by scale alone but by the ethics, diligence, and transparency that defined its founders. What began as a two-member venture soon evolved into a 100+ strong team, each individual aligned with the companys customer-first philosophy and commitment to doing right by every buyer and investor. Over the years, Property Master expanded its reach, representing more than 150 projects and building strong collaborations with leading developers across the region. Its services grew with the needs of its clients, spanning buying, selling, leasing, registration support, investment consultation, and complete documentation handholding. Through every step, the goal remained simple and unwavering: to make real estate decisions clearer, easier, and more trustworthy for everyone who walked through their doors. Ethos That Builds Property Master At the heart of this growth lies an ethos that has remained unchanged since day oneintegrity above all else. Property Master earned its reputation not through grand promises but through honest conversations, ethical dealings, and the assurance that every recommendation came from a place of responsibility. This sincerity became its strongest differentiator, inspiring long-term relationships with clients who returned again and again, often bringing friends and family through referrals. Each repeat customer became a testament to the trust the brand had built. By upholding professionalism and offering clear, transparent advisory at every step, Property Master set new benchmarks in Faridabad and Mohalis real estate ecosystem, proving that when a business is grounded in values, trust naturally follows. Leadership With Purpose What strengthens Property Masters identity even further is the leadership with purpose. Both Goldi Arora and Paras Rai have always believed that success holds true meaning only when it contributes to the larger good. Goldi has long been involved in social welfare initiatives, dedicating time and resources to uplift weaker sections of society through hands-on community work. Paras, too, has consistently supported charitable causes, contributing generously to initiatives focused on education, healthcare, and social well-being. Their shared commitment to giving back reflects a leadership ethos rooted in humility, responsibility, and purpose beyond profit, shaping Property Master not just as a respected brand but as a values-driven organisation that stands for more than business. Scaling the Vision Building on their strong values and human-centric leadership, Property Master steadily evolved into a go-to real estate advisory not only in Faridabad but also in Mohali and Gurugram, serving homebuyers and investors seeking clarity, confidence, and trustworthy guidance. Its success lies in a combination of transparent processes, expert advisory, deep market knowledge, and a relentless customer-first approach, complemented by robust partnerships with leading developers. In Gurugram, the company has established a strong presence in key micromarkets, including SPR, New Gurgaon, Golf Course Road, Golf Course Extension Road, and Sohna Road, providing both residential and investment solutions. At the helm, Paras and Goldi continue to balance each other perfectly; Paras brings financial insight and investor-focused strategy, and Goldi steers marketing, business development, and relationship-building. Together, their complementary strengths ensure that every client experience is not only professional and profitable but also reassuring and seamless, making Property Master a name synonymous with trust across multiple regions. Looking Ahead Property Master remains committed to its mission of simplifying real estate decisions for every buyer and investor, ensuring clarity, confidence, and peace of mind at every step. The company envisions expanding its services, embracing technology to enhance client experiences, and deepening its reach across Faridabad and beyond. Guided by the same values and leadership that shaped its journey, Property Master aims not just to advise but to become a trusted partner in every property journey, helping clients navigate the complexities of real estate with expertise, integrity, and a human touch.

ED arrests WinZO directors in online betting case
NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Wednesday arrested WinZO Games Pvt. Ltd. directors Saumya Singh Rathore and Paavan Nanda from Bengaluru in connection with an online betting case. The accused were produced before the home office of a judge, who granted their custody to the agency and directed that they be presented again today for detailed arguments on the EDs remand application. The agency had conducted search operations at four locations in Delhi and Gurgaon between November 18 and November 22 in the case against the WinZO gaming app, seizing assets worth around Rs 505 crore. The searches were carried out under provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002. WinZO is engaged in providing online real-money gaming services through its mobile application. During the search, proceeds of crime possessed by WinZO Games Pvt. Ltd. worth around Rs 505 crore have been frozen in the form of bank balances, bonds, FDRs, and mutual funds under Section 17(1A) of the PMLA, the agency said in a statement. The ED initiated its investigation on the basis of FIRs filed against WinZO Games Pvt.

Investigators also found that WinZO engaged in unscrupulous practices, including allowing customers to play against algorithms/software instead of real players without disclosing this to users. The company allegedly restricted or delayed customer withdrawals and generated proceeds of crime through bets lost by users. The ED further found that global operations, including online betting, were being run from a single platform in India. Funds from the Indian entity were allegedly diverted to the U.S. and Singapore under the guise of overseas investments. About USD 55 million (Rs 489.90 crore) was found parked in U.S. bank accounts in the name of WinZO US Inc., which the agency described as a shell company, as all operations and account management were handled from India.

Haryana cracks down against drunk driving with over 63,000 challans this year, Gurgaon tops cases
CHANDIGARH: Haryana has recorded a total of 63,073 challans for drunk driving this year in a major crackdown, with Gurgaon topping the list, followed by Faridabad and Karnal. Haryana has recorded a total of 63,073 challans for drunk-driving this year, with Gurgaon topping the list, followed by Faridabad and Karnal District-wise data from the Haryana Police shows that between January 1 and November 24, Gurgaon recorded the highest number of challans at 24,972, followed by Faridabad (7,402), Karnal (4,851), Panchkula (4,180), and Jind (3,109). Acting on instructions from the Haryana Police headquarters, regular special drives have been conducted across all districts. The purpose of these drives is not only to curb drunken driving but also to strictly monitor lane discipline, noise pollution and misuse of red-blue lights. After reviewing weekly reports, the police headquarters has directed districts to make these campaigns even more effective and result-oriented, a police spokesperson said. He added that the numbers reflect intensified monitoring across high-risk corridors, supported by dedicated night-time patrolling. Special police teams have also been deployed at all toll plazas from 6 p.m. to 10 pm, equipped with alco-sensor and e-challan machines so that drunk drivers can be checked on the spot and action taken without delay. On-the-spot checks allow officers to act immediately against offenders, significantly boosting highway safety and deterring risky late-evening driving behaviour. While enforcement remains strict, police officials emphasise that the campaigns primary goal is to change behaviour, not merely issue challans. The message is clear: drunk driving endangers the driver as well as every other commuter on the road, he said. Haryana Police has appealed to citizens to stay alert and advise family, friends and colleagues not to drive under the influence of alcohol. About 15 days ago, Haryana DGP O P Singh had suggested out-of-the-box ideas to curb drunken driving without humiliating anyone. For example, talk to the restaurant owner. If there are four people in a group, they could serve only three so the fourth wont drink. Or the owner could tell them that if all four have had drinks, take an Uber. The police can even coordinate with restaurants to ensure drunk patrons get home safely instead of being harassed at checkpoints, he had said. He further noted that Gurugram is like Amsterdam, Singapore or Hong Kong, cities known for their energy, youth and single working populations. Many single men and women working here have no family; their friends are their family. When they finish work on Friday, they go out this happens globally. So please, do not harass them when they are returning, he had said. He urged officers to avoid excessive barricading and traffic jams and instead explore smarter solutions such as real-time surveillance, technology integration and partnerships with nightlife establishments. Singh emphasised that while drunken driving is unforgivable, the enforcement approach must remain humane and non-confrontational.

Indian Railways unloads two NMG rakes carrying over 230 vehicles simultaneously in J&K
SRINAGAR: A week after launching its first-ever automobile rake to Kashmir carrying 116 vehicles, Indian Railways successfully completed the first simultaneous unloading of New Modified Goods (NMG) rakes loaded with Maruti Suzuki vehicles at two major goods terminals in Jammu and Kashmir. The Indian Railways successfully carried out simultaneous unloading of two NMG rakes loaded with over 230 Maruti Suzuki vehicles on the same day at two major goods shed terminals in J&K - Bari Brahmana in Jammu and Anantnag in south Kashmir. The two NMG automobile rakes were transported from Gurgaon to Bari Brahmana Goods Shed and Anantnag goods terminals. A Railway official said 113 vehicles of various models and categories were unloaded from the rakes at Bari Brahmana terminal in Jammu while 118 vehicles were unloaded from rakes at Anantnag terminal. It is the first time such a large number of vehicles have been unloaded at both goods terminals of the Jammu Railway Division in a single day. The vehicles unloaded include Alto, Brezza, Eeco, Dzire, Wagon R, S-Presso, Ignis, Super Carry, and Ertiga. Senior Divisional Commercial Manager, Jammu Division Uchit Singhal said this is a historic day for logistics in J&K. He said the growing preference of trade and industry for Indian Railways over road transport is a testament to the cost and time efficiencies offered by the Railways. According to Singhal, with a strong portfolio of freight products, Indian Railways has become a preferred mode of transport not only for perishable goods, courier services, and cement, but now also for automobiles in large quantities. The arrival of the automobile rake marks a significant milestone in transportation of vehicles to Kashmir directly from the manufacturing plant. Earlier, the new vehicles had to be driven to car dealerships in the Valley via the 270-kms long Srinagar-Jammu highway from Jammu in absence of rail services. According to car dealers this initiative from Indian Railways would save transit time. The transit time used to affect this industry in the Valley. It used to be very hectic and problematic to transport new vehicles from Jammu to Srinagar. Now the vehicles are reaching directly from the factory to the Valley. It is a great initiative and will benefit customers and the dealers, they said. Automobile industry is the second sector that has used commercial railways for transportation. On August 1, the first-ever freight train reached the Valley carrying 1,400 tonnes of cement. The Railways also recently started freight train ferrying famed Kashmiri apples from the Valley to markets outside.

KOLKATA: With large parts of Kolkata thoroughly inundated, public life brought to its knees and at least seven people electrocuted in the wake of widespread and torrential overnight downpour, a political slugfest broke out on social media between the BJP, the state's prime Opposition, and its ruling dispensation, the Trinamool Congress. While the saffron party took to its social media handles to post pictures and videos of waterlogged streets of Kolkata and accused the TMC-run Kolkata Municipal Corporation of indulging in corruption, the ruling party slammed the BJP for weaponising pain to spread hate. Durga Pujo celebrations are starting this week. Yet, due to Kolkata's extremely poor drainage system, Puja pandals are submerged under water. Years of anarchy under the CPI(M) and nearly 15 years of corruption in the Kolkata Municipal Corporation under TMC have forced Bengalis to suffer even during their biggest festival, Durga Puja, a post on the X handle of BJP's Bengal unit, referring to a video of the thoroughly waterlogged Maniktala area in north Kolkata, read. These visuals clearly sum up the 'Unnayan' done by Mamata Banerjee. pic.twitter.com/bKdXkDJy19 BJP West Bengal (@BJP4Bengal) September 23, 2025 Another post of the BJP, with an attached video clip of an inundated Science City area in eastern parts of the city, equated the public distress to lack of business in the state. See the condition of Kolkata around Science City. This is one of the state's highly acclaimed and posh regions that houses a few organisations. If such is the condition of civil lives, how can anyone think about living a sustainable life in Kolkata? How can any organisation further have the intent to invest? This is a breakdown of civil order, the post read. In a sharp retort, state Finance minister Chandrima Bhattacharya accused the BJP of playing politics with people's distress. Yesterday, Kolkata faced the fury of a rare cloudburst. Nearly 300 mm of rain fell within hours, a scale that overwhelms any city, no matter its infrastructure. Scientists have said the same in Mumbai 2005, Chennai 2015, Delhi 2023, no city escapes when the skies open without pause, Bhattacharya wrote on X. Yet what does BJP do? They ignore science, they ignore compassion, they ignore climate realities. Their only obsession is to weaponise pain and spread hate. They think people cannot tell the difference between a natural calamity and their propaganda, she added. Yesterday, Kolkata faced the fury of a rare cloudburst.

We also know that BJP's attempt to inject hatred during Durga Puja is strategic and will fail miserably, she declared. Women and Child Development Minister Sashi Panja claimed that officials of both the KMC and the state government were working relentlessly on the streets to ease the people's distress. Amid calamity, leadership is measured in compassion and action. BJP offers neither. Instead, they mock Bengal while their own governments fail their people year after year at the first sign of heavy rain. Empathy? That's beyond their vocabulary, she wrote on X. Panja accused the BJP of selective targeting of opposition governments. When Gurgaon gets flooded, the BJP stays mum. And at a time of calamity, instead of showing compassion for people all BJP does is mock the Bengal government, she said. In a strongly worded post on the same social media platform, state leader of opposition Suvendu Adhikari squarely laid the blame for people's distress on the civic bodies concerned and the state power department. A procession of deaths in an inundated city! Adhikari wrote. At an age when advanced technology provides accurate predictions of rainfall locations and its volume, citizens pay the price of incompetent and indifferent municipal bodies of Kolkata and Bidhannagar. They have not learnt lessons from the past, and the same picture gets repeated year after year, he added. !!! , ? - ! , , pic.twitter.com/6Hl4Zd68oJ Suvendu Adhikari (@SuvenduWB) September 23, 2025 Adhikari lashed out at the state Power department, blaming it for not just its abject failure, but its criminality in not being able to tackle the live electrical wire menace in the city. Where are your officials? Why haven't effective steps been taken to handle dangers lurking from live wires? So far, seven innocent people are dead. This is not your failure, this is criminal negligence. People must be held responsible for this neglect and punished, he stated. The BJP leader highlighted the repeated annual sufferings of the people and asked how long this distress, stemming from anarchy, would continue.
