During the speech she announced various schemes and programmes in the state but the unusual thing was every scheme started with 'Under the able leadership of Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma.' The Dy CM repeated this particular word more than a dozen times. BUREAUCRACY In Balaghat, You Can Now Adopt a Government School: IPS Aaditya Mishras Education Movement Balaghat, which had long suffered from the impact of Naxalism, is now empowering the next generation through education. IPS Aaditya Mishra, a 2018-batch officer of the Madhya Pradesh cadre currently posted as Superintendent of Police, Balaghat, has launched a transformative and sustainable social initiative titled Ekal Suvidha KendraVidyanjali. The initiative focuses on improving infrastructure in government primary schools located in remote and interior areas by facilitating community and corporate participation. Recognizing that in formerly Naxal-affected villages education and school infrastructure had long taken a backseat due to security threats, fear, and logistical challenges, the program addresses the reality that many government primary schools in interior forest regions had crumbling roofs, broken floors, poor sanitation, and little access to electricity or water. To bridge this developmental gap, the initiative operates on a social adoption model using the Vidyanjali framework, with a simple yet unique idea: inviting individuals, professionals, and organizations to adopt government primary schools and support basic renovation work. As per current data, 36 adopters are already associated with the project, covering a substantial number of schools. The broader objective is preventive in nature, aiming not only to improve infrastructure but also to change mindsets by building long-term community resilience, promoting developmental outreach, and ensuring that youth are not drawn toward negative or anti-development ideologies in the future. What began with modest expectations has gradually expanded, and in its first phase 100 schools have been completed, with the broader effort extending to nearly 250280 schools across remote belts. To ensure financial transparency and accountability, a registered Vidyanjali Society with a dedicated bank account, PAN, and DARPAN ID oversees the initiative, guided by the philosophy Jan-Jan ka bhagidar, ab shiksha hai taiyar. The transformation goes beyond basic repairs and focuses on holistic development by providing students with improved facilities and modern learning environments. Structural upgrades include repairing leaking roofs, cracked ceilings, damaged floors, and broken boundary walls, while schools are now equipped with secure main gates, proper electricity, fans, lighting, and functional doors and windows. Special emphasis is placed on WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) facilities, including renovated and hygienic toilets, clean drinking water access, and modernized kitchen sheds to ensure safe mid-day meal preparation. Classrooms that once had peeling plaster and broken furniture are now painted in bright colors, furnished with modern desks, and redesigned as inspiring learning spaces. Remarkably, the average transformation cost per school stands at approximately 1.20 lakh, significantly lower than conventional costs, achieved through strong community participation and shramdaan by Balaghat Police personnel themselves. To ensure sustainability, the registered Vidyanjali Society encourages community ownership, supports implementation, and continuously monitors the initiative, with members drawn from civil society and professional backgrounds to ensure inclusive representation. Through this initiative, IPS Aaditya Mishra is enabling the next generation of Balaghat to write its own story of development with confidence and opportunity.

Uttar Pradesh govt orders closure of schools till January 1 amid intense cold wave

LUCKNOW: The Uttar Pradesh government has announced the closure of schools up to 12th grade till January 1 due to the intense cold. Districts, including Varanasi, Kanpur, Aligarh, Sambhal, and 30 other districts, were shrouded in dense fog on Monday. Visibility had dropped to zero in 810 cities. Roads remain deserted with cold winds and dew creating a drizzle-like effect. The Meteorological Department warned of an intense cold wave to continue for the next four days. With Meerut recording the lowest temperature at 6.7C, over 100 trains were running late in Gorakhpur, Jalaun, Varanasi, and Lucknow. Dense fog and lack of visibility led to delayed flights. Meanwhile, UP CM Yogi Adityanath instructed the officials to immediately assess the situation and arrange bonfires and blankets at public places. The Meteorological Department advises people to avoid unnecessary travel and take extra care of elderly and children. On Monday, temperatures remained below 10C in 38 districts. As per weather scientist Atul Singh, in the next few days, the cold will be more intense during the day and night because of snowfall in the Uttarakhand hills. Meanwhile, owing to the intense cold wave sweeping the state, number of patients with cold and fever has increased in hospitals. The weather is dangerous for cardiac patients as well. People are thronging hospitals with symptoms such as anxiety, heaviness in the chest, and pain. As per the health department sources, at the OPD of KGMU and Lohia Institute, the number of heart patients has increased by up to 30 percent. Due to the impact of cold and fog, potato and mustard crops are under threat. Farmers say that if the temperature continues to drop, production may decrease.

Dense fog, cold wave and hazardous smog grip north India

North India woke up to a chilly Sunday, with dense fog and cold wave conditions affecting daily life across the region. In the national capital, temperatures dropped to 9C, while thick smog reduced visibility, prompting health advisories for residents. Despite the weather, services at Indira Gandhi International Airport remained unaffected as of 8 pm, according to a travel advisory. Other cities, including Karnal (Haryana) and Moradabad (Uttar Pradesh), recorded similar conditions with temperatures hovering around 9C. IMD issued an orange alert for Moradabad. Agras Taj Mahal was obscured by dense fog, while Kanpur residents huddled around bonfires to keep warm. In Guwahati, Assam, the minimum temperature fell to 15C under foggy, cold-wave conditions. The air quality in Delhi worsened, with the AQI reaching 391, entering the severe category, and some localities crossing 400. Anand Vihar recorded 445, Patparganj 425, Nehru Nagar 433, Shadipur 445, Mundka 413, and IGI Airport 320. The combination of cold weather, calm winds, and fog trapped pollutants, resulting in dense haze and smog across the city. Authorities have invoked Stage IV measures under the Graded Response Action Plan, including restrictions on construction and industrial activity, while enforcing the No PUC, No Fuel rule. In response, the Delhi Cabinet, led by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, approved a series of measures to improve environmental governance. Rs 100 crore will be allocated to rejuvenate 160 government-managed water bodies out of the 1,000 in the capital, aimed at pollution control. The government also approved the creation of Delhis first E-Waste Park at Holambi Kalan, spanning 11.5 acres, to operate on a 100% circular, zero-waste model. Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa stated, Rejuvenation of Delhis water bodies will play a crucial role in controlling pollution. The Chief Minister has directed that every possible support be provided to complete the work within the year. Meanwhile, in Mumbai, a thin layer of smog covered areas like Bandra Kurla Complex, with AQI recorded at 123 (moderate), highlighting that pollution continues to affect multiple urban centres across India.

'Help' written across walls, notebooks expose mental harassment by private school staff in Kanpur

KANPUR: Four staff members of a private school here have been booked for alleged mental harassment of an eight-year-old boy after accusing him of stealing a pen, police said on Friday. The incident came to light after the Class 2 student began displaying signs of being disturbed, by writing Help in his books and the walls of his house and crying in his sleep, according to a complaint filed by the boy's parents. Following the complaint, an FIR was registered on December 23 against four staff members of the private school at Sen Paschim Para in Kanpur, including its director Devraj Singh Rajawat, principal Anuprit Rawal, and teachers Sangeeta Malik and Swatantra Agnihotri, police said. In her complaint, the child's mother alleged that her son was falsely accused of stealing a pen and mentally harassed. She said her son was summoned to the school on December 12 over an incident that occurred on November 28, a day he did not attend school. The family noticed behavioural changes in the child, who became withdrawn and woke up crying at night, saying, Ma'am, I didn't take the pen. He also began writing the word Help in his books and the walls of his home, the family said. The complaint also alleged that the child was coerced into recording a confession video. The school refused to share CCTV footage and instead, pressured the family to pay for the pen, it said. Police said they have issued notices to the accused, but they failed to appear in the station. An FIR has been registered and the matter is under investigation, said Station Officer Pradeep Kumar Singh.
