Op Safed Sagar veteran attacked with iron rod over parking dispute in Gurugram

Digital Desk | Gurugram, Sep 14 (IANS) A retired Indian Air Force officer and Kargil War veteran has alleged that he was attacked with an iron rod by a parking attendant at Magnum Global Park in Haryana's Gurugram, leaving him with serious head injuries and a fractured hand. The veteran has also accused the attendant of threatening to kill him. Group Captain Amit Kumar Gupta (retired), who was part of the Indian Air Forces Op Safed Sagar during the 1999 Kargil War, made the allegations in a complaint submitted to the police. He has also claimed that he did not receive adequate assistance from the local police following the incident and alleged that the hospitals medico-legal case (MLC) report did not accurately record his injuries. According to Gupta, he had visited the Gonzo restaurant at Magnum Global Park with his family for dinner on Thursday night. He said that after dropping off his family near the venue at around 8 p.m., he went to find a parking space for his vehicle. Gupta alleged that the parking personnel repeatedly directed him to different areas, including the valet section, basement and the multilevel parking facility, before eventually refusing to park his vehicle. He further alleged that while he was attempting to reverse his car, one of the attendants struck the vehicles windshield, apparently trying to damage it. Speaking to NDTV, Gupta said he got out of his vehicle to object to the attendants conduct, following which the situation escalated. He alleged that the parking attendant picked up an iron rod and struck him twice, once on his hand and again on his head. Gupta said the assault left him bleeding heavily and claimed that the accused also issued threats to his life. He alleged that despite the presence of security guards and other parking employees, nobody immediately intervened. Gupta also said he contacted the police helpline but claimed that no police personnel arrived for nearly 30 minutes. According to Gupta, a chef at the restaurant eventually stepped in and intervened, preventing the situation from escalating further. He was subsequently taken to Medanta Hospital in an ambulance for treatment. Gupta said he suffered serious injuries to his head and elbow and underwent surgery, during which plates were used to stabilise and fuse the injured elbow bone. Describing the incident as sudden and unprovoked, Gupta said he had little opportunity to protect himself from the attack. He has also alleged that the MLC prepared by the hospital failed to mention the bleeding from his head and the injury to his elbow. Gupta has sought strict action against the accused and urged the police to register an FIR for attempted murder and causing grievous hurt. 'Operation Safed Sagar' was a high-altitude air operation undertaken by the Indian Air Force to flush out Pakistani infiltrators from occupied Indian positions in the Kargil sector in 1999. An OTT series released in August also highlighted the operation and paid tribute to the Indian Air Force personnel who participated in it.

Indias semiconductor industry attracts $1.4 billion in equity funding: Report

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 13 (IANS) India's semiconductor sector has attracted a cumulative $1.4 billion in equity funding across 281 funded companies with nearly half of the total capital, around $701 million raised since 2025, according to a report. A report by Tracxn showed that the nation currently hosts 3,557 semiconductor-related companies. Of these, 281 firms have secured funding, while 142 have raised equity investments and the chip industry has garnered $228 million in funding so far in 2026, it said. The analysis comes ahead of SEMICON India 2026 conference and exhibition which is scheduled to be held from September 17 to 19 here that will be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The report highlighted electronic manufacturing services (EMS) as the largest funding segment, attracting $313 million since 2025. In addition, embedded hardware ranked second and secured $51.9 million over the same period with all of it raised within the last 12 months. While Power Management Integrated Circuits and Fabless Semiconductor Manufacturers also featured among the leading categories by funding.

Beyond the Hospital: How Paras Health Is Reimagining Indias Healthcare Story

There are places in India that are defined by their geography, and then there are places that seem to transcend it. Kashmir is one such place. Its beauty has been immortalised in poetry for centuries. The timeless Kashmiri verse Agar firdaus bar r-ye zamn ast, hamn ast-o hamn ast-o hamn ast reminds us that if paradise exists on earth, it is here. But Kashmirs story is not only one of beauty. It is also a story of resilience, aspiration and an enduring belief in the power of human connection. It is against this backdrop that Paras Health Srinagar completed three years a milestone that is about much more than the passage of time. It is about trust earned, lives touched, families supported and a healthcare institution becoming part of the social fabric of the community it serves. That journey also reflects a much larger story unfolding across India: the transformation of healthcare from a predominantly metropolitan privilege into a more accessible, decentralised and community-oriented service. From a Vision to a Healthcare Movement When Paras Health began its journey in Gurugram in 2006, the proposition was both ambitious and deeply relevant: quality healthcare should not be restricted by geography or income. Nearly two decades later, that proposition has grown into a healthcare network spanning cities including Gurugram, Patna, Ranchi, Panchkula, Udaipur, Kanpur, Darbhanga and Srinagar. The geography matters. For years, Indias most sophisticated medical capabilities were concentrated in a handful of metropolitan centres. Patients from smaller cities and towns often had to travel long distances, leaving behind their families, livelihoods and familiar surroundings simply to access specialised treatment. The emergence of healthcare institutions in newer geographies is changing that equation. Paras Healths expansion represents this broader shift bringing specialised medical expertise, modern infrastructure and clinical capabilities closer to the people who need them. The result is not merely greater convenience. It is greater confidence. A family that once had to look hundreds of kilometres away for advanced medical care can increasingly find that care closer to home. That is what makes healthcare infrastructure meaningful: not the size of a building, but the distance it removes between a patient and hope. Healthcare Is Ultimately About Trust Indias healthcare aspirations are changing rapidly. Patients today are more informed. They expect clinical excellence, but they also expect something equally fundamental dignity. They want to be heard. They want transparency. They want accessibility. They want compassion. Technology can make diagnosis faster. Infrastructure can make treatment more sophisticated. But neither can replace the human relationship at the centre of medicine. A hospital, therefore, is not simply an institution where procedures are performed. It is where families arrive carrying anxiety, uncertainty and, often, their deepest fears. The true measure of a healthcare institution lies in what happens next. Does the patient feel cared for? Does the family feel supported? Does the institution remain compassionate when the situation becomes difficult? This is where Paras Healths philosophy of Care Beyond Medicine acquires significance. The phrase is not merely about clinical treatment. It speaks to the larger responsibility of healthcare to make people feel that they are not alone. The Courage to Go Beyond the Metros There is an important lesson in Paras Healths journey. Healthcare transformation cannot happen if excellence remains concentrated in Indias largest cities. The countrys healthcare ecosystem can grow sustainably only when capacity expands outward into emerging cities, regional centres and communities that have historically depended on metropolitan hospitals. This is where institutions such as Paras Health can play a catalytic role. Every new hospital creates more than beds and operating rooms. It creates employment, develops clinical talent, strengthens allied healthcare services, encourages local medical ecosystems and gives patients a reason to seek advanced treatment closer to home. It can also reduce the enormous economic and emotional cost of medical travel. In that sense, the expansion of a healthcare network becomes part of the larger story of nation-building. India does not merely need more hospitals. It needs stronger healthcare ecosystems. And ecosystems are built through connectivity between doctors and institutions, technology and patients, expertise and geography, and most importantly, between healthcare and the communities it serves. The Leadership Behind the Journey At the centre of this journey stands Managing Director Dr. Dharminder Nagar, whose leadership has been shaped by a belief that hospitals are ultimately built on values. Infrastructure can be constructed. Technology can be acquired. Systems can be replicated. Trust cannot. Trust has to be earned, often slowly and one patient at a time. The decision to expand beyond established metropolitan markets requires a different kind of leadership one willing to accept uncertainty, understand local needs and remain committed long enough for an institution to become part of the community. The Paras Health story has been built in that spirit: patiently, persistently and with a long-term view. Brick by brick. Life by life. Trust by trust. PARAS Health Srinagar: More Than a Hospital Three years in Srinagar have given this philosophy a particularly meaningful context. Kashmir is a region where healthcare is intertwined with geography, accessibility and community confidence. Establishing advanced healthcare infrastructure here is therefore not simply a business decision; it carries a wider social significance. Over these three years, Paras Health Srinagar has sought to establish itself not merely as a hospital, but as a dependable healthcare destination for patients and families. Every doctor who chooses service over convenience, every nurse who offers reassurance during a difficult moment, and every member of the support team who keeps the institution functioning contributes to that larger mission. The visible story of a hospital is often told through its buildings, technology and medical departments. The invisible story is told through the people. Through the late-night calls. The anxious families. The difficult diagnoses. The small victories. The moments when a patient's recovery brings an entire household back to hope. That is the real architecture of healthcare. There is another, less discussed dimension to building healthcare ecosystems in India: institutions become part of the everyday life of the communities around them. A hospital does not exist in isolation. It supports doctors, nurses, technicians, pharmacists, ambulance services, diagnostic networks, hospitality teams, food and nutrition services, maintenance staff, local vendors and countless other allied sectors. Even something as simple as a patient's meal carries a larger message. Hospital food is not merely about calories. It is about nutrition, recovery, cultural familiarity and dignity. A thoughtfully prepared meal can become a small but powerful expression of care at a time when a patient may feel most vulnerable. From clinical expertise to nutrition, from technology to housekeeping, from emergency care to the cup of tea offered to an anxious attendant healthcare is an ecosystem of thousands of human interactions. That ecosystem is precisely what India must continue to strengthen. And organisations such as Paras Health can contribute to that evolution not only by adding hospitals, but by creating platforms where medical talent, technology, employment, training and community healthcare can grow together. The Next Frontier Is Human Indias healthcare story is entering an exciting phase. Artificial intelligence, robotics, telemedicine, advanced diagnostics and digital health will undoubtedly reshape medicine. But the more healthcare becomes technologically sophisticated, the more important the human element may become. Because patients do not experience healthcare as data. They experience it as people. A doctor explaining a diagnosis. A nurse holding a hand. A family waiting outside an operating theatre. A reassuring voice at the other end of a phone. A meal served when someone is too tired to think about food. A hospital that makes a difficult day feel slightly less frightening. These moments rarely appear in annual reports, but they define healthcare more profoundly than statistics ever can. As Allama Iqbal wrote, Sitaron se aage jahaan aur bhi hain there are worlds beyond the stars. The thought is fitting for an institution that continues to look beyond the conventional boundaries of healthcare. The future is not simply about building more hospitals. It is about building greater trust. It is about making excellence accessible. It is about developing healthcare talent beyond the traditional centres of medicine. And it is about ensuring that geography does not determine the quality of care a person can receive. From Paradise to Partnership Kashmir has long been described as paradise. But paradise, in the modern sense, cannot be measured only by mountains, lakes and gardens. A truly healthy society is one in which people can access quality healthcare with dignity and confidence. That is the larger promise of healthcare institutions that choose to invest beyond the metros. Three years of Paras Health Srinagar is therefore one chapter in a much bigger Indian story a story about decentralising excellence, strengthening regional healthcare and bringing the promise of modern medicine closer to ordinary families. Perhaps the most appropriate way to describe that journey is not as a destination, but as a partnership. A partnership between doctors and patients. Between institutions and communities. Between technology and humanity. And between healthcare and the India that is steadily building a healthier future. The journey is far from over. But if the first three years of Paras Health Srinagar are any indication, the next chapter can be measured not simply in infrastructure created or services delivered, but in something much more enduring; the number of lives that leave the hospital carrying not just treatment, but hope. And perhaps that is the finest definition of Care Beyond Medicine. Seema Vig is a Senior Vice President and Regional Director, PARAS Health. She could be reached at seemavig@parashospitals.com

Nihal Cheema wins with 4-under 68, Aaradhya shoots 69; Avni logs hole-in-hole at US Kids Golf

Digital Desk | Gurugram, Sep 11 (IANS) Nihal Cheema, who has had phenomenal success at the US Kids Series events and otherwise, once again stood out with an excellent 4-under 68 that won him a second straight title at the US Kids India (North) title in the Boys' 9 section at the Classic Golf and Country Club, Gurugram. The nine-year-old Chandigarh lad, who is coached by Jesse Grewal and mentored at times by Gaganjeet Bhullar among others, had six birdies, two of them on the last two holes, against two bogeys for a 12-shot win over Shivraj Singh and Jamraudh Singh Sidhu, who were tied at 80 each. Another standout winner with an under-par score was Drona Singh Dhull (Boys 12) with a second successive 1-under 71. Dhull had three birdies on the first, 14th, and 17th, and an eagle on the 18th against four bogeys. Cheema, who has been prodigious and has been playing since the age of two, is seen as an excellent talent. He was the runner-up at the 2026 U.S. Kids Golf World Championship at Pinehurst No. 1, where he had three under-par rounds and finished 10-under par. He was also second at the 2026 FCG Callaway World Championship and won the 2024 U.S. Kids Golf European Championship in Scotland, while being in the Boys-7 division. He won the FCG International Championship 2025 in California. Avni Atreya, one of the seven players to win back-to-back titles after having taken the honours in the first leg, also registered the first hole-in-one of 2026. She holed out from the tee on the Par-3 fifth hole from 140 yards. She had another birdie and six bogeys, but still won with 4-over in Girls 15-18. The most keenly fought section was the Girls' 11-12, where the top three shot under-par scores. Aaradhya Bhatnagar (69) with seven birdies, including a four-in-a-row streak from 11th to the 14th, against four bogeys, beat Aadya Kaushal (69) in a play-off, while the first-leg winner, Hissi Besra (70), was just one shot back. Starting from the tenth, Aaradhya was 6-under at one stage after 15 holes, but three closing bogeys saw her finish at 3-under and get into a play-off, which she won. Aadya also had seven birdies against two bogeys and a double bogey. Hissi opened with an eagle two on Par-4 first and had four other birdies against four bogeys for a 2-under 70. The seven players who won back-to-back titles in the first two legs were Arjun Adiya (Boys Under 6), Lakshith A (Boys 7), Nihal Cheema (Boys 9), Drona Singh Dhull (Boys 12), Sidhak Handa (Boys 15-18), Prisca Sachdeva (Girls 13-14) and Avni Atreya (Girls 15-18). Boys and Girls up to the age of eight played nine-hole rounds, while all others played full 18 holes. The US Kids Golf India (North) series will continue with Legs 3 and 4 in October at the Classic Golf and Country Club, Gurugram.
