Ellaborating on the procedure, the officer said the animal is tranquilised before it is relocated to its native haunt. Jena said, though it is a common procedure to bring back strayed wild animals, it will be done for the first time in Jharkhand, provided they get the proposal approved from the Union government. The tiger, trapped in Dalma Wildlife Sanctuary is reportedly starving, sparking fear among residents in 86 surrounding villages.

There are concerns that prolonged isolation and lack of food could cause the tiger to fall into depression and the forest department is taking measures to ensure its well-being.

Vande Bharats 1st female loco pilot gets R-Day invite
RANCHI: Ritika Tirkey, the first female tribal assistant loco pilot of the Vande Bharat Express, was left speechless when she opened her door to a team of Post Office officials who had come to deliver an invitation for the At Home reception at Rashtrapati Bhawan. According to 27-year-old Tirkey, she had never thought in her wildest dreams that the President would ever invite her as a loco pilot. When she received an e-mail, she thought it to be fake, but a formal invitation from the Rashtrapti Bhawan left her dumbfounded. The invite was delivered to Ritikas residence at Jugsalai in Jamshedpur by the postman under the supervision of Assistant Postal Superintendent (West) Parikshit Seth. Initially, when I received the e-mail, I thought it to be fake, but when a team from the Post Office knocked on my door, it overwhelmed me, said Tirkey. It is an honour that a tribal girl from a simple family has got this unique opportunity, she added. This honour comes as recognition of her outstanding achievements in a male-dominated field, where she has broken barriers to carve a path for women in the Indian Railways. The Rashtrapati Bhawan has invited me as a woman achiever and I believe that every woman should be independent. I think women have been working in almost every field, and where they have not, will reach very soon, said Tirkey. No work is small in this world; the only pre-condition is that it should be done with complete dedication, and then success is bound to follow, she added. According to Tirkey, her first achievement was being the co-pilot when Prime Minister Narendra Modi flagged off the Vande Bharat train on September 15, 2024, and now, attending the Presidents At Home Reception, would be her second achievement. Ritika, who works as the assistant loco pilot of the Vande Bharat Express operating between Tatanagar and Patna, is not only the first tribal woman to take on this prestigious role but also a source of immense pride for her family and the women across the state. Hailing from a humble family in Jharkhand, Tirkey completed her schooling in Ranchi before pursuing a B. Tech in Mechanical Engineering from BIT Mesra. Her father is a retired forest guard. Tirkeys career with the railways started in Chandrapura, Bokaro, under the Dhanbad Rail Division, before being transferred to Tatanagar in 2021. It was there that she received her promotion, propelling her to new heights in her career. She quickly advanced, operating freight trains and passenger services, before being promoted to Assistant Loco Pilot. Her promotion in 2024 enabled her to participate in the operation of the Vande Bharat Express, where she now serves as a vital crew member. The Vande Bharat Express, a state-of-the-art train, is one of Prime Minister Narendra Modis dream projects. Ritikas journey with the Indian Railways began in 2019 when she joined as a shunter in the Chakradharpur division of South Eastern Railway.

Political heat grows in Jharkhand as JMM's Dulal Bhuiyan eyes BJP switch after Raghubar Das return
RANCHI: The political landscape in Jharkhand has started to heat up following the return of Raghubar Das to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). After the recent induction of senior leader Champai Soren into the BJP, another veteran Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader, former minister and three-time MLA Dulal Bhuiyan, is reportedly on the verge of joining the party. According to BJP sources, Bhuiyan has been in regular contact with Das and is expected to join the party within a day or two. People close to Bhuiyan have revealed his growing dissatisfaction with the JMM, claiming that the party no longer respects its senior leaders. Senior leaders were given respect till the command of the party was in the hands of Shibu Soren, but since he is not active these days due to his ill health, party workers and senior leaders are being ignored by his successors, they said. Bhuiyan himself admitted that he is in talks with Das and will make his decision based on guidance from him. Raghubar Das has been an old political friend of mine, and we have prior experience of working together, Bhuiyan stated. He added that, given the new political equations in Jharkhand, he is prepared to join the BJP along with his team. Bhuiyans son, Viplav Bhuiyan, is also likely to join the BJP. Notably, Viplav contested the Jugsalai Assembly seat in Jamshedpur as an independent candidate after being denied a ticket by the JMM, but he lost. JMM General Secretary Vinod Pandy, commenting on the matter, said, Bhuiyan has to take a call on his next move. But, if he has any grievances, he should put them at the right forum. Meanwhile, Raghubar Das has returned to action, making statements aimed at energising the BJP cadre. There is speculation that Das might either replace Babulal Marandi as the state president or be given another senior role, given his credentials as a cadre-based leader. Das, who joined the Jan Sangh as an ordinary cadre in the 1970s, is widely regarded as an ideologically committed politician. Das became the first non-tribal chief minister of Jharkhand, completing a full five-year term due to his strong connections within the party cadre and his dedication. The BJPs decision to appoint him as Odishas governor was seen as a move to strengthen Marandis influence in Jharkhand. However, Marandis leadership has not yielded results, with the BJP failing to wrest control from the JMM-led coalition in the 2024 elections. The BJP is now under pressure to consolidate support among Jharkhands 74 per cent non-tribal population, especially given that the states tribal population, comprising 26 per cent, largely supports the JMM-led coalition. The recent defections of influential JMM leaders like Champai Soren and the potential inclusion of Bhuiyan are part of a larger BJP strategy to solidify its position in the state. Champai Sorens switch to the BJP has already created significant ripples, and Dulal Bhuiyans likely defection is expected to further bolster the partys foothold in Jharkhand.

Will come back soon: Former Odisha Governor Raghubar Das after rejoining BJP
RANCHI: Former Odisha Governor Raghuar Das on Friday started his second innings with BJP by formally rejoining the party in the presence of top party leaders at the state BJP headquarters in Ranchi. State BJP President Babulal administered party membership to Das. After coming back to the BJP fold, it feels like being in the lap of the mother, he said. Addressing the gathering after joining the party, Das vowed to come back soon into power. We could not get the expected results in the recent Assembly elections in Jharkhand, but we need not be desperate of disappointed, we will have to fight back, we will to struggle and win back once again, and we will come back soon, said Das. This day is historical day for me as I am taking BJPs members for the second time after 1980, he added. Das warned the JMM-led government that the party will wait for six months and keep a watch on whether the government has fulfilled the promises made to the people or not. If they fail to fulfill their promises, the party will consider it an insult to the mandate and will launch a movement on the streets in order to establish a strong government in the state, he said. Notably, Das was appointed the Governor of Odisha on 18 October 2023. He started his political career in Jamshedpur and was elected the first Chief Minister of Jharkhand, who completed five years tenure from 2014 to 2019. Das was also the first non-tribal Chief Minister of Jharkhand. In the 2019 Assembly polls, Raghubar Das lost to rebel MLA Saryu Roy, who rebelled against the BJP. The BJPs decision to appoint Das as Odishas governor was seen as a move to grant Babulal Marandi greater influence in Jharkhand. Marandi, who merged his party (the JVM) with the BJP in 2020, was unable to wrest control from the JMM-led coalition in the 2024 elections. In light of the BJPs recent underperformance in the assembly elections, there is growing pressure within the party to focus on consolidating support from Jharkhands 74% non-tribal population. The tribal population, which constitutes 26% of the state, largely supported the JMM-led coalition. It was being expected since long that he will return to active politics after resigning from the post of Odisha Governor. Earlier on September 11, Das had changed the colour of the profile picture of Odisha Governor Raghunar Das on X and Facebook, sparking speculations over his return to Jharkhand politics once again. Interestingly, Das changed the frame of his profile picture on social media platforms to green and saffron for some time, but as soon as it went made viral on social media, it was replaced immediately with the earlier photograph. It was also believed in the political circles that Das might contest from his old seat Jamshedpur East in the recently held Assembly elections, but due to some unknown reasons the idea was postponed and his daughter-in-law was fielded from there.

Raghubar Das resigns as Odisha Governor; set to rejoin active politics
RANCHI: In an expected move, Odisha Governor Raghubar Das finally resigned from his post on Tuesday sparking. It was being expected since long that he will return to active politics after resigning from the post of Odisha Governor. Earlier on September 11, Das had changed colour of the profile picture of Odisha Governor Raghunar Das on X and Facebook, sparking speculations over his return to Jharkhand politics once again. Interestingly, Das changed the frame of his profile picture on social media platforms to green and saffron for some time, but as soon as it went viral on social media, it was replaced with the earlier photograph. It was largely believed in the political circles that Das might contest from his old seat Jamshedpur East in the recently held Assembly elections, but to some unknown reasons the idea was postponed and his daughter-in-law was fielded from there. According to the press communiqu from Rashtrapati Bhawan, the President of India has officially accepted Raghubar Das resignation. Dr. Hari Babu Kambhampati , the current Governor of Mizoram, has been appointed as his successor in Odisha. Sources close to Das claimed that holding a gubernatorial position did not align with Das political career. He expressed his desire to quit from the post and return to active politics, they said. However, it still remains unclear about the role he will be given by the BJP leadership. There are speculations that he might return to Jharkhand BJP to rejuvenate the state unit, which has been struggling since its humiliating defeat in the assembly elections. Raghubar Das was appointed Governor of Odisha on October 18, 2023, after the BJPs loss in the 2019 Jharkhand Assembly elections. That defeat was largely attributed to discontent among tribal voters, reportedly caused by the Das-led governments move to amend the CNT/SPT Acts. The BJPs move to send Das to Odisha was seen as an effort to give Babulal Marandi a free hand in Jharkhand after Marandi merged his party, the JVM, with the BJP in 2020. Despite these efforts, Marandi was unable to reclaim power from the JMM-led coalition in the 2024 elections. Following the BJPs poor performance in the recent assembly elections, there is a growing demand within sections of the party to consolidate support among the 74% of non-tribal voters in Jharkhand.

JHAMSHEDPUR: Amid ongoing protests over Union Home Minister Amit Shah's remarks on B R Ambedkar , senior Congress leader Ajoy Kumar alleged that the BJP, which adheres to the principles of Manusmriti, has always insulted Dalits. The AICC executive committee member, in a statement issued here on Sunday, said that the true character of the BJP, which practices Manusmriti, was exposed with Shah's comments in the Rajya Sabha. BJP leaders' mindset has always been anti-Dalit, which often gets reflected in their statements intentionally or unintentionally, Kumar alleged.

This was not the first time when the BJP's anti-Dalit character came to the fore.

It was Mahatma Gandhi and Nehru's Congress which has always given respect to Dalits, Kumar said. He demanded that Shah must apologise publicly to the nation. During a debate on the Constitution in the Rajya Sabha last week, Shah had said, Abhi ek fashion ho gaya hai - Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar. Itna naam agar Bhagwan ka lete to saat janmon tak swarg mil jata (It has become a fashion to say Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar. If they had taken God's name so many times, they would have attained heaven for seven lifetimes). On Wednesday, Shah held a press conference in which he accused the Congress of twisting facts and distorting his comments in the Rajya Sabha. Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha witnessed constant protests from treasury benches and opposition members over the alleged insult of Ambedkar until both the houses were adjourned sine die on Friday.

Shooters planned Salman Khans murder before targeting Baba Siddique: Report
The shooters involved in the murder of NCP leader Baba Siddique reportedly had plans to assassinate actor Salman Khan before targeting Siddique, India Today TV reported, citing sources. This revelation came to light during the questioning of the accused in connection with the high-profile murder case. Baba Siddique was shot dead on October 12 outside the Bandra East office of his son, MLA Zeeshan Siddique. Three assailants fired at him, hitting him twice in the chest. Despite being rushed to Lilavati Hospital, he was declared brought dead. Sources told India Today TV that during interrogation, the accused disclosed Salman Khan was initially on their hit list. However, they were unable to carry out their plan due to the actors robust security arrangements. Authorities are continuing investigations into the motives and network of the accused.

In October, a vegetable seller from Jamshedpur was arrested for threatening Khan and demanding Rs 5 crore. Days later, the actor received another death threat from an unknown individual, demanding a Rs 2 crore ransom.
