Nikkhil Advani says he purposely made Bagha Jatin's character highly emotional
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 29 (IANS) Filmmaker Nikkhil Advani, who is receiving a lot of good response to his work in the recently released streaming show The Revolutionaries, has said that he wanted to showcase the character of legendary freedom fighter Bagha Jatin as someone who is highly emotional, and spoke in monotone. The filmmaker spoke with IANS along with Bhuvan Bam, Rohit Saraf, Pratibha Ranta, and Gurfateh Parizada during the promotions of the show at a 5-star property in the Andheri West area of Mumbai. In the series, Bagha Jatin is portrayed by Gurfateh Pirzada, and the filmmaker said that he retrofitted the character as per the actors personality. He told IANS, I feel that there is so much silence in Gurfateh, and I have played him like that. I have played Bagha Jatin as this guy who is almost monotone. When he speaks,he is very clear that this is what we need to do. And he is very emotional, highly emotional. I showcased him as highly emotional. The Revolutionaries follows 4 freedom fighters, Rash Behari Bose, Pratibha Lahiri, Sachindra Nath Sanyal and Bagha Jatin, who locked horns with the British Raj. The series is inspired by true events and is set against the backdrop of Indias freedom struggle. It also stars Bhuvan Bam, Rohit Saraf, Pratibha Ranta, and Jason Shah. I felt that that is the energy I was getting from when we were together. So, I think that it evolves from people that are around you. I mean, I don't approve. I mean, of course, there is lots of stuff in the script, he added. The show tells the story of Indian freedom fighters who believed that armed resistance was not just vital but indispensable to ending the British Raj. It was because of the sustained efforts of the aforementioned revolutionaries that the British empire had to shift its capital to Delhi from Kolkata. The show is available to stream on Prime Video.
India in talks with China for use of airspace for flights amid Pakistan closure
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 29 (IANS) India is in talks with China over the use of the Asian neighbour's airspace in the Xinjiang region by Indian commercial airlines to reduce the longer time and higher costs involved for flights to western countries due to the continued closure of Pakistani airspace, Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu said on Tuesday. We are looking at other alternatives. Discussion on the Hotan route in China is going on between the two countries. Our External Affairs Ministry is engaging with the country. Let us see how it goes, but we are trying alternatives, Naidu told journalists. The move comes days after China's President Xi Jinping attended the BRICS Summit in New Delhi. Sources say talks are on for over a year to route flights via Hotan. Ahead of President Xi's Delhi arrival, China Southern Airlines announced that it will resume direct flights between Guangzhou and New Delhi from September 21, restoring a route that had been suspended for six years. The resumption is part of a broader restoration of direct air links between the two countries after services were disrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent tensions along the India-China border. China Southern said it will operate more than 100 weekly flights across eight round-trip routes in South Asia, strengthening connectivity between China and the region. IndiGo was the first Indian airline to resume India-China connectivity. The airline resumed direct India-China flights in October 2025, when it restarted services between Kolkata and Guangzhou, followed by Delhi-Guangzhou in November. Air India resumed direct flights between Delhi and Shanghai on February 1, ending a nearly six-year gap in services to mainland China. The airline initially operated four flights a week and increased the frequency to five flights a week from March 29. The renewed air connectivity comes against the backdrop of a broader diplomatic engagement between New Delhi and Beijing. Pakistan's airspace has remained shut to India since April 2025, making alternative routing options an important consideration for air travel. Two weeks ago, Pakistan extended its restrictions on Indian aircraft by another month amid continuing tensions with New Delhi, which avenged the 2025 Pahalgam terror attack with the successful launch of Operation Sindhoor that wiped out terror camps deep in Pakistani territory.
Bengal: CBI arrests proclaimed offender in 2021 post-poll violence case
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 29 (IANS) The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Tuesday arrested a proclaimed offender in connection with a murder case linked to the post-poll violence after the 2021 West Bengal Assembly election. According to a press statement issued by the CBI, the arrested person is Jharna Mistry, wife of Sanjay Mistry, who is also a co-accused in the same case. The CBI arrested her in the Ghoshpara area of Santoshpur in the South 24 Parganas district of West Bengal. The accused was at large since registration of the FIR in 2021, and she never joined the investigation/trial in this post-poll violence case. The CBI had declared a cash reward of Rs 50,000 for her arrest, the statement read. In compliance with the Calcutta High Court's order on August 19, 2021, the CBI began investigating post-poll violence cases in West Bengal, including this one. In this case, the CBI began its probe after registering an FIR with Jagatdal Police Station in North 24 Parganas district. The FIR was based on a complaint by the mother of Sova Rani Mondal, who was allegedly killed by the accused during the violence. After a detailed investigation, the CBI filed a supplementary chargesheet against 13 accused persons, including prime accused Jharna Mistry. Since the FIR was registered, Jharna Mistry went absconding and evaded trial. Even after a district court at Barrackpore declared her a proclaimed offender, she remained at large. She was produced before the Competent Court at Barrackpore on Tuesday. To recall, after the results of the 2021 West Bengal Assembly election, in which Trinamool Congress secured power for the third consecutive term with a thumping majority, reports of severe post-poll violence surfaced across the state. In many of these cases, Trinamool leaders and activists were accused of carrying out violence. Several Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers were killed or injured, and many were forced to leave their homes for extended periods.
NIA arrests three more in Bengal for suspected terror links, tally rises to four (Ld)
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 29 (IANS) The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Tuesday arrested three more persons from West Bengal for suspected terror links in connection with its probe into suspected terror links, taking the total number of arrests during the day to four. Earlier in the day, the central agency had arrested Piar Mohammad Sheikh, an Imam attached to a mosque in Palishgram village under Mangalkot Police Station in East Burdwan district of West Bengal, as a suspect of having terror links. Later, information surfaced about the arrests of three more persons for suspected terror links. The other three arrested persons have been identified as Jumman Sheikh, Shahrul Purrkait and Abdul Rafiq. The NIA sleuths arrested Jumman Sheikh from Mithapukur, Shahrul Purrkait from Balarampur and Abdul Rafiq from Narendrapur in South 24 Parganas district. Jumman Sheikh worked as a tailor. Abdul Rafiq, originally from Barpeta in Assam, is an active member of a Bangladesh-based satellite terror group Purba Akash (Eastern Sky). The arrests followed coordinated raids by different teams of the NIA, which launched simultaneous raids and search operations at different locations in West Bengal on Tuesday morning in connection with its ongoing investigation to crack the sleeper cells of an underground Bangladeshi fundamentalist-cum-militant outfit, Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), in the state. Tuesdays raid and search operations were related to a case registered in neighboring Assam, and the NIAs actions at five locations in West Bengal were based on specific information secured by the central agency sleuths. Last week, the NIA sleuths arrested a youth in Assam on suspicion of being a militant. The investigators found that the arrested youth was an active member of JMB. During interrogation, he admitted that a module of a Bangladesh-based militant organisation was active in West Bengal. His interrogation also revealed that JMB was working to create sleeper cells in West Bengal, where several youths from a particular community were being brainwashed to join that banned Bangladesh-based outfit. The documents seized by the NIA sleuths from the youth arrested in Assam revealed further details about the active JMB module. Armed with that information, the NIA sleuths conducted raids and search operations at different locations in West Bengal since Tuesday morning.

Calcutta HC asks Bengal CM to reply to Mamatas petition on Bhabanipur
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 29 (IANS) Calcutta High Court on Tuesday directed West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari to submit a written reply to the election petition filed by former Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, alleging massive counting irregularities in the Bhabanipur Assembly Constituency during the West Bengal Assembly polls earlier this year. Justice Gaurang Kanth asked Adhikari to file his written reply by October 1. In the election earlier this year, Adhikari, contesting as a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) candidate, defeated Mamata Banerjee, the Trinamool Congress candidate, by 15,105 votes. Following the result, Mamata Banerjee, through her counsel and four-time Trinamool Congress Lok Sabha member Kalyan Banerjee, filed an election petition at the Calcutta High Court alleging massive counting irregularities at Bhabanipur. Earlier, during a hearing in August, Adhikaris counsel Joydeep Kar sought time to respond, and Justice Kanth granted three weeks. At that time, the court ordered the preservation of election-related documents, including EVMs and CCTV footage. On Tuesday, Kalyan Banerjee was absent from court, and his son, Sirshanyo Banerjee, appeared on behalf of Mamata Banerjee. The petition alleged irregularities at Sakhawat Memorial Girls High School in South Kolkata, where counting was conducted on May 4. Mamata Banerjee claimed her counting agent was beaten and thrown out of the centre towards the end of counting, allowing irregularities to take place. She also alleged that she was prevented from entering the counting centre as a candidate for a long time. Another allegation was that the returning officer for Bhabanipur was a close confidant of Adhikari, who was then the Leader of the Opposition in the West Bengal Assembly.
IFA Shield: Punjab FC aim to top group against East Bengal after dominant debut
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 29 (IANS) Punjab FC will look to carry the momentum of their emphatic opening victory when they take on East Bengal FC in their final Group II fixture of the IFA Shield 2026-27 at the East Bengal Ground in Kolkata on Wednesday. The match, scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m., will decide the group toppers, with both Punjab FC and East Bengal having already secured their places in the semifinals after winning their respective opening matches against Calcutta Customs Club. Punjab FC announced their arrival in the competition in emphatic fashion, thrashing Calcutta Customs 7-0 on Sunday in Pavlos Dermitzakis first match as head coach. The result also saw new signing Raphael Messi Bouli make an immediate impact, with the Cameroon international scoring a hat-trick and providing two assists. Boulis three-goal haul has put him level with Mohun Bagans Lallianzuala Chhangte at the top of the tournaments scoring charts. Punjabs attacking options were further underlined by goals from Diego Raposo, Konsam Sanathoi Singh and Bishu Sharma in the opening fixture. The Shers will also be encouraged by the contribution of their academy graduates. Manglenthang Kipgen impressed in midfield against Customs with his pressing and distribution, while Muhammed Uvais, Suresh Meitei and Nikhil Prabhu formed part of a young core that helped Punjab maintain control of the game. Dermitzakis expects a more demanding test against an East Bengal side playing on home turf. We had a fantastic start to the tournament, and the 7-0 victory showed the attacking quality and tactical discipline we possess. However, East Bengal is a historic club playing in front of their home fans, so it will be a completely different test. I am incredibly proud of how our Roundglass Academy graduates, particularly young players like Kipgen, stepped up and controlled the tempo. We will need that same intensity and teamwork tomorrow to secure the top spot in our group. East Bengal, meanwhile, entered the contest after beating Calcutta Customs 3-1 in their opening game. Despite conceding in the 12th minute, Bino Georges side recovered strongly to register a comfortable victory. With East Bengal juggling commitments in the AFC Champions League Two and the ISL, the club has used the IFA Shield to give opportunities to several reserve and emerging players. Akash Hemram and Rohit Danu were among those to find the net against Customs and will again be expected to provide attacking impetus. Punjab FC and East Bengal last met in the ISL in May, when the two sides played out a goalless draw at the Salt Lake Stadium. With a semifinal berth already assured for both teams, Wednesdays encounter will instead determine who finishes at the summit of Group II and gains the corresponding semifinal draw advantage.
Why some British Asian couples are travelling to India for IVF
For some British Asian couples, the decision to travel to India for IVF involves more than the cost of treatment. Access to care, waiting times, donor availability, family connections, and cultural comfort can all shape where they seek treatment, says Dr Rohit Gutgutia, a fertility and IVF specialist. Speaking to Eastern Eye, Gutgutia discusses why some British Asian couples are looking beyond the UK for fertility treatment, from NHS waiting times and private costs to donor availability, family connections, and cultural attitudes towards IVF. NHS waiting times and eligibility Access to NHS-funded IVF can vary, while waiting times can add another layer of uncertainty for couples who are already concerned about their age and chances of conceiving. Dr Rohit Gutgutia, a Kolkata-based fertility and IVF specialist with more than two decades of experience in reproductive medicine, says the limits of NHS provision are one reason British Asian couples are looking further afield. Gutgutia, who holds an MBBS and a DGO in Gynaecology and Obstetrics and trained in advanced IVF in Israel in 2005, has written about transparency in how IVF success rates are reported and the risks of overtreatment. NHS covers only about 30 per cent of cycles that happen in the UK. There are two main reasons for this. One is the wait time that is there. So if it's an IVF, it essentially means couples require a child, and they need an IVF. So nobody's going to wait that long for a pregnancy. Gutgutia also points to age as an important consideration, saying access to NHS-funded treatment can become more difficult for women over 39 or 40. For couples who turn to private treatment, the financial commitment can then become another consideration. The cost in an IVF in the UK turns out to be prohibitively expensive. It's almost equivalent to three months' salary for an average Asian couple. Dr Rohit Gutgutia is a fertility and IVF specialist with more than two decades of experience in reproductive medicine. He holds an MBBS and DGO in Gynaecology and Obstetrics and trained in advanced IVF in Israel in 2005. www.easterneye.biz Family ties make India familiar For British Asians, travelling to India for treatment can also be easier because the country may already be part of their family life. Relatives, regular visits and existing connections can make a lengthy medical journey feel more manageable. They have family in our country in India. They have easy access to IVF centres in India. They usually do travel back once a year for family connections, as it is. This can mean travelling to India is not necessarily a rejection of NHS care. Some couples may first seek diagnosis or treatment in the UK before considering India for their IVF cycle. Donor availability and ethnicity Donor treatment can introduce another consideration for British Asian couples. Gutgutia says some patients want a donor who shares their ethnic background, while the availability of South Asian donors in the UK can be limited. So if you are a British Asian couple, you would want donor matching your own racial background and ethnicity. So then because there is a short supply of, let's say, Indian donors or south Asian donors in the UK, they would prefer to come to India. He says the trend is not limited to donor treatment. According to Gutgutia, couples have increasingly travelled to India for IVF using their own eggs and sperm as well. Indias changing fertility sector India's IVF sector has expanded considerably, with larger companies entering the market and greater standardisation across parts of the industry. It's become a lot more standardised. There are large corporates who have entered the IVF scene, so there is transparency, there is ethical service, and quality is maintained at a fraction of the cost that would basically be the cost of a cycle in the UK. At the same time, Gutgutia cautions couples about additional treatments, or IVF add-ons, that may be offered alongside standard treatment. Most of these add-ons are actually not beneficial. That caution reflects his broader view that fertility care should involve honest counselling, careful preparation and realistic expectations. The cultural side of fertility For British Asian couples, fertility can also be a private family matter. Gutgutia says attitudes can differ between generations and between the cultures that shape British Asian families. The British Asian couples still, that is also to do with the way the English are. They don't talk about their health openly. They kind of kind of tight-lipped about a lot of matters. And there's a mixture of both the cultures that's happened. That can affect how couples involve parents and relatives in their fertility journey. Some may tell family members that they are undergoing IVF without discussing the underlying reasons or details of treatment, making confidentiality an important consideration. A different reason to travel For some British Asian couples, travelling to India for IVF therefore brings together several practical and personal factors: access to treatment, family support, familiarity with the country and, for some, donor availability. Navigating that journey from abroad is the gap Gutgutia set out to address with Ikivana, which he co-founded with UK-based entrepreneur Megha Agarwal, the companys CEO. Agarwal, an MBA who has built businesses across hospitality, food technology, health and wellness, co-founded the platform after seeing people travel overseas for fertility treatment without consistent guidance or continuity of care. Ikivana coordinates treatment alongside transparent pricing, visas, accommodation, emotional support and wellness services. Gutgutia believes trust will be crucial if India is to attract more patients from the UK, pointing to countries such as Spain and Greece that have established themselves as destinations for fertility treatment. For British Asians with longstanding family connections to India, however, the relationship with the country may already be there. IVF may simply be giving that connection a new purpose.

Bengal: CBI arrests proclaimed offender in 2021 post-poll murder case
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 29 (IANS) The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Tuesday arrested Proclaimed Offender (PO) Jharna Mistry from Ghoshpara, Santoshpur, South 24 Parganas district, West Bengal, in the 2021 post-poll violence and murder case. Jharna, wife of co-accused Sanjay Mistry, has been at large since registration of the FIR in 2021, and she never joined the investigation/trial in this post-poll violence case. The CBI had declared a cash reward of Rs 50,000 for her arrest. In compliance with the Calcutta High Court order dated August 19, 2021, the CBI registered the instant case on August 27, 2021, by taking over FIR No. 345/2021 dated May 3, 2021, of Jagaddal Police Station, North 24 Parganas. The FIR was registered based on the allegations of post-poll violence wherein Sova Rani Mondal, mother of complainant and BJP worker Kamal Mondal in Jagaddal constituency, was killed by the accused after the declaration of Assembly election results on May 2, 2021. After investigation, the CBI filed a supplementary chargesheet on December 29, 2021 against a total of 13 accused persons, including Jharna Mistry. As the accused was hiding and evading the process of trial, the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Barrackpore, North 24 Parganas District, declared her a Proclaimed Offender vide order dated October 3, 2023. The arrested accused/PO is being produced before the Competent Court at Barrackpore, the CBI said. In March 2023, the CBI announced a cash reward of Rs 50,000 for information on the accused in the murder case. Though Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had claimed that there was no incident of post-poll violence in the state, an NHRC report had said that there were several cases of rape and murder after the announcement of Assembly election results in 2021. Earlier, on January 28, 2023, the probe agency had announced a similar cash reward of Rs 50,000 for information in the murder case of BJP worker Abhijit Sarkar. Sarkar was allegedly strangled to death with a television cable. He was the only BJP worker who died in the state capital in the post-poll violence. Sarkar's family had continuously alleged that the Kolkata Police was not investigating the matter properly and was not arresting the 'Trinamool goons' responsible for the murder, who are not only moving scot-free, but also threatening the family members. Biswajit Sarkar, the elder brother of the victim, has filed petitions to probe Sarkar's death before the Supreme Court and the Calcutta High Court.

Day after firearms' recovery from TMC ex-MLA's home, car, another gun found in garden; driver held
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 29 (IANS) The West Bengal Police on Tuesday arrested the driver of former Trinamool Congress MLA Biswajit Das after another country-made firearm and live bullets were recovered from the garden behind the former legislator's residence in North 24 Parganas district. The arrest of the driver, Keramat Mandal, came a day after Das, the former Bangaon Uttar MLA, was taken into custody following the recovery of firearms from his house and car. The police said the latest recovery was made after investigators questioned Mandal. A team from Gopalnagar police station visited Das' residence late on Monday night and searched the garden located behind the house. During the search, the officers found a country-made firearm and several live rounds. According to investigators, suspicion fell on Mandal after Das was taken to the police station. The police said that the driver returned to the former MLA's residence in Das' car, unlocked the house and entered the premises. He reportedly emerged after a short while, prompting the investigators to question his movements. During interrogation, the police alleged, Mandal admitted that the firearm and bullets had been kept on the dashboard of Das' car. He allegedly removed the weapon and ammunition from the vehicle and threw them into the garden before returning. Mandal was subsequently arrested in connection with the alleged illegal possession of firearms. Das and his driver were produced before the Bangaon Sub-divisional Court on Tuesday. The police sought seven days' custody of both accused for further questioning. Investigators are now examining the circumstances surrounding the recovery of the weapons. They are also trying to establish where the firearms came from and why they were allegedly kept in Das' possession. Das entered electoral politics with the Trinamool Congress and won the Bangaon Uttar Assembly seat in 2011. He retained the constituency in 2016. Following the Bharatiya Janata Partys (BJP) strong performance in West Bengal in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, he shifted political allegiance and joined the BJP ahead of the 2021 Assembly polls. Das contested the 2021 election from Bagdah on a BJP ticket and won. He subsequently returned to the TMC after meeting Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and was later given charge of the party's Bangaon organisational district. In the 2024 Lok Sabha election, Das contested the Bangaon seat against BJP's Shantanu Thakur but was defeated. He was fielded again by the TMC in the 2026 Assembly election, but lost to BJP candidate Ashok Kirtania.
NIA arrests Imam in Bengal's East Burdwan for suspected terror links
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 29 (IANS) The National Investigation Agency (NIA), on Tuesday, arrested an Imam of a mosque at Palishgram village under Mangalkot Police Station in East Burdwan district of West Bengal on suspicion of having links with terror networks. The arrested individual has been identified as Piar Mohammad Sheikh, who was serving as the Imam of a mosque in Palishgram village under the Mangalkot Police Station limits. He is originally a resident of Kulut village in the Monteswar area of the same district. According to sources, an NIA team, assisted by local police personnel, conducted an operation at the Palishgram Purbapara mosque on Tuesday morning and detained Sheikh from the premises. Investigators subsequently searched the room where he had been staying and seized a diary and a mobile phone. Sources aware of the development said that investigators found the numbers of several Bangladeshis in the diary. He was taken from the mosque to Mangalkot Police Station for interrogation. NIA sleuths are trying to extract as much information from him as possible. Local residents told media persons that Sheikh had been associated with the mosque for the last three years. His arrest took the villagers by surprise. They said they could not even think of his links with terrorist forces based out of Bangladesh. However, the mosque committee member Golam Mustafa and some villagers said that the arrested Imam used to go to Bangladesh frequently. Recently, too, he went to Bangladesh and spent almost six months there. He returned to Palishgram again a few months back, a local villager said. NIA officials are, however, tight-lipped over whether the arrest of the Imam is connected with the parallel raids and search operations conducted by separate teams of the central agency in five locations in different districts of West Bengal since Tuesday morning. NIA is probing alleged sleeper cells of the Bangladesh-based militant outfit Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB). Tuesdays raid and search operations were in relation to a case registered in neighbouring Assam, and the NIAs actions in West Bengal were based on specific information secured by the central agency in the matter.

Bengal Ex-Minister Faces Probe Agency ED Searches In Fund Collection Case
A total of 10 locations across Kolkata including Highland Park are being searched, sources said in the case linked for former West Bengal minister Indranil Sen
ED raids 10 places linked to ex-Bengal minister in money laundering case
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 29 (IANS) The Enforcement Directorate (ED) was conducting raid and search operations at the residence of the former West Bengal Tourism Minister, Indranil Sen, a singer-turned-politician, on Tuesday in connection with the charges against him and his wife, Madhuchhanda Sen, of illegally selling pre-Durga Puja tickets by misusing the name of the UNESCO. A team of ED officials reached Sen's residence in Kasba, South Kolkata, early in the morning. It is learnt that different teams of ED officials were conducting simultaneous search operations at 10 places in the city, including the residence of the former minister at Kasba. Other places where the Central agency operations were being conducted include Hindustan Park and Highland Park, among others. These include the houses of the former minister's relatives. The address where the ED has started searching in Highland Park is the house of a businessman associated with event management. There have been allegations that 'fake passes' were sold in the name of Durga Puja tours, using the UNESCO tag. It is initially estimated that around Rs 60 crore was involved, said sources. A complaint was filed at the Bowbazar police station in June this year against Indranil, his wife Madhuchhanda Sen and an organisation called 'Mass Art'. Madhuchhanda herself is also involved in this organisation. These 'fake passes' were also being sold using the name of 'UNESCO' to gain credibility. The complaint was lodged by Joydeep Mukherjee on behalf of the international organisation. As per the complaint, the said entity, 'Mass Art', was floated within six months of the Kolkata Durga Puja being recognised by UNESCO in 2021. They claim to be UNESCO's 'official partner' in promoting Kolkata's Durga Puja. But this claim was alleged to be false. Apart from that, it was alleged that UNESCO's name, logo, etc., had been used without permission to sell tickets for Puja tours. It is further learnt that passes for about 24 Durga Puja 'preview shows' in Kolkata were sold at high prices. In some cases, the price of these passes ranged from Rs 1,749 to Rs 5,499. The said entity claimed that UNESCO had selected those 24 puja mandap. But so far, no truth has been found in this claim, according to sources aware of the development. It is alleged that money has been embezzled in the name of 'preview show' passes. Initial investigation revealed that about 19,000 people registered to receive these passes in 2022; 34,000 registered in 2023; and 61,000 in 2024. Although the investigation into the matter was initiated by the Kolkata Police, the ED later began its probe into the money laundering angle in the case.

AI has not made hard work optional: IIT Kharagpur
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 28 (IANS) Prof Sudeshna Sarkar from the Computer Science and Engineering Department of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kharagpur addressed three common myths about learning in the age of Artificial Intelligence (AI), stressing that technology works best when it strengthens rather than replaces the learning process. She said, Technology has been changing very fast, but what has not changed is the effort that you have to spend to learn. You have to keep up with technology and continue to learn. On the suggestion that AI provides explanations quickly, Prof. Sarkar pointed out the difference between receiving an explanation and achieving understanding. AI can give you instantaneous explanations, and that is convenient. But when students struggle with a problem, trying to solve it, failing, recalibrating, that produces true understanding. They can then internalise it, transfer it to new contexts, and that knowledge becomes much more valuable, she explained. She insisted that struggling while learning is not failing. Getting stalled is failure. Wrestling with a solution and reaching it teaches much more than shortcuts. Students develop a sense they can transfer to new situations, she said in an X video shared by IIT Kharagpur. Prof Sarkar denied that AI has made hard work optional. AI has reduced the effort but not made hard work optional. What is important today is constructing the ability to understand and apply knowledge to different situations, she said. She emphasised the need for higher-order learning skills and critical understanding to go beyond what AI can do and to develop solutions for new problems. IIT Kharagpur also announced an ongoing project for learners through the National Digital Library of India. For every learner, the right guidance at the right moment can make a difference. Yet providing personalised, one-to-one academic support at scale remains a challenge, the institute said. It added that, in collaboration with Fermi AI, it is developing a new AI-enabled learning experience to guide, engage and encourage students to think through problems themselves. Stuck on a problem? You wont be alone for long, it said.
Bengal: Bail plea of Congress candidate in Nandigram bypoll deferred
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 28 (IANS) The crucial final hearing on the bail plea of Milan Pradhan, the Congress candidate for the forthcoming Nandigram assembly bypoll in East Midnapore district of West Bengal, was postponed on Monday. Pradhan is currently in judicial custody in connection with two old cases, including a 2007 murder case. The hearing was scheduled before the Calcutta High Courts single-judge bench of Justice Tirthankar Ghosh in the second half of the day. However, Justice Ghosh informed that the final hearing would now take place on Tuesday, after which judgment will be delivered. During last weeks hearing, Justice Ghosh had observed that Pradhan should be allowed to contest the polls freely like other candidates and even indicated that bail would ultimately be granted. This had raised expectations that Pradhan might be released on Monday to join the campaign. The bypolls for Nandigram and Rejinagar assembly constituencies in Murshidabad district are scheduled for October 6, with results to be declared on October 9. Pradhan was arrested on September 18, hours after former West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced that her Trinamool Congress faction would support the Congress candidate in Nandigram. The announcement followed the dramatic withdrawal of Trinamools candidate, Sanchita Dey Pradhan. The move was seen as a fresh step towards Opposition unity in the state after Banerjees defeat in the assembly polls earlier this year. In those elections, current West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari contested and won simultaneously from Nandigram and Bhabanipur in South Kolkata. He later chose to retain Bhabanipur, necessitating the Nandigram bypoll.

Bengal: Drugs, pistol seized near India-Nepal border; two arrested
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 28 (IANS) In a major operation, troops of the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB), in coordination with local police, raided a house close to the India-Nepal border on Monday and seized narcotics and a sophisticated firearm with two magazines. Authorities took two people into custody and are questioning them to identify others involved in the racket. A senior SSB official said the operation began around 4 a.m. and continued till 11.05 a.m. after specific intelligence inputs were received about narcotics stored at the house of Madan Mohan Paswan in Hathiduba village, Churli, under Galgalia Police Station in Kishanganj, Bihar. The raid was conducted by personnel of the G Company, Bhatgaon, Quick Response Team of A Company, Nimuguri, Galgalia police, and the Anti-Narcotics Task Force of Bihar Police. The house is located about 3.83 km inside Indian territory from border pillar number 102, the official said. During the search, police seized 455 grams of brown sugar in five plastic pouches, a factory-made pistol, two magazines, and a digital pocket weighing machine. Police took Madan Mohan Paswan (29) and Ramjapo Paswan (57), the property owner, into custody. Police handed over the seized items and the accused to Galgalia police station for interrogation and legal action. Officials noted that substantial quantities of narcotics have been seized in joint operations along the international border in recent months, with several arrests made. The India-Nepal border runs through West Bengal, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. Criminal activities along this stretch range from narcotics smuggling to human trafficking. Criminals exploit cross-border movement as citizens of both countries can cross unchecked without documentation. Operations span across states, with criminals taking advantage of jurisdictional changes, another official said. Beyond managing the border, the SSB monitors criminal activities within its jurisdiction. It has built a credible intelligence network that has helped curb such activities. Recently, a human trafficking racket was busted and six girls, including four minors from Tripura, were rescued while being taken across the border into Nepal. The SSB also busted a cattle smuggling racket involving animals transported from Uttar Pradesh to Assam. The SSB has also rescued girls from West Bengal districts who were being trafficked into Nepal to work at dance bars, the official added.

Bengal: Teachers protest in Kolkata demanding job security
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 28 (IANS) A section of computer teachers from state government and government-sponsored schools staged a protest at Bikash Bhavan in Salt Lake, Kolkata, on Monday, demanding job security as they face imminent dismissal. Hundreds of teachers sat on the road after police blocked their way, preventing them from entering Bikash Bhavan. When police tried to stop the procession with barricades, protesters attempted to move forward by throwing them down. Police later informed that a delegation of 10 people would be allowed inside, but the teachers insisted they would not withdraw without a government notification ensuring their jobs. More than 3,000 computer teachers in the state were appointed by private organisations before and after 2022 under five-year contracts. Some contracts expire this year, while others end in early 2027. Recently, the organisations issued letters stating contracts would expire on September 30, with all documents to be handed over to the responsible agency by October 9. Since the Left Front era, the government has appointed computer teachers on a contract basis in government and government-aided schools. Later, the Trinamool Congress government also allowed such appointments. Teachers said appointments were made in the sixth and seventh stages through private organisations in 2022 and earlier, but the government did not regularise them. The teachers alleged that salaries had been reduced by about Rs 1,000 in recent months due to changes in government rules. They claimed dismissal would affect their families and school authorities, as most project work is now digital. On Monday, the procession began at Karunamoyee bus stand. As it reached Bikash Bhavan, a scuffle broke out with police. Teachers tried to advance by throwing barricades but were blocked again, after which they sat in front of the building. One teacher said: We are being dismissed from our jobs like this before Durga Puja. What kind of justice is this? The government must take action. We have helped students in schools, and now this is the reward?
Bengal: Dengue deaths in 2026 lower than past two years
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 28 (IANS) The number of dengue-related deaths in West Bengal through August 2026 has been significantly lower than the figures recorded in 2025 and 2024, according to state health department statistics. A senior health department official said that till the end of August, 10 dengue-related deaths were recorded. As per the findings of the death review committee, in seven of those cases dengue was the cause of death. In the other three, although the patients were affected by dengue, the deaths were due to other medical complications, the official explained. He added that while the dengue situation in West Bengal was largely under control, the department was not leaving room for complacency. The administration has declared October and November as the high-risk period. On Monday, West Bengal Chief Secretary Manoj Agarwal held a virtual meeting with all district magistrates. He instructed them to keep all precautions in place, given the likelihood of increased infections in the coming months. Although the situation is now under control, the possibility of a rise in infections cannot be ruled out. That is why all relevant departments, including health, municipal affairs & urban development, and panchayat affairs & rural development, have been directed to monitor the situation regularly, the official said. The Chief Secretary emphasised that merely collecting reports would not be sufficient. He directed district administrations to monitor the situation directly, focusing on cleaning drives, larval destruction work, and strengthening awareness programmes to ensure mosquito breeding grounds are eliminated.

ER introduces tech at weighbridges to prevent accidents
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 28 (IANS) To ensure safe and efficient freight movement, Eastern Railway (ER) has begun introducing technology at weighbridges. Officials said this would help reduce derailments, prevent accidents, and protect tracks, calling it a significant technological leap forward in ensuring the safety and punctuality of freight train movements and maintaining uninterrupted supply chains across the network. As part of this ongoing modernisation drive, ER is installing advanced Wheel-wise Load Imbalance Detection Systems at strategic weighbridges. This technology is designed to detect deviations from safe load limits before service interruption, enabling proactive maintenance and preventing potential transit hazards, a senior official said. Under the system, sensors collect load data and send it to a central controller. Software then determines static and dynamic wheel loads, left-to-right load ratios and impact load factors to flag uneven loading, overloaded axles or flat spots. Real-time alerts are passed directly to officials, who can take corrective measures. The first Wheel-wise Load Imbalance Detection System on ER was successfully commissioned at the Pakur In-Motion Weigh Bridge recently. Initial trial results have been encouraging. The system will be made fully operational following final certification from the state government. Installation work for a similar weighbridge is underway at Kotalpukur. This forms part of ERs broader roadmap to extend the safety installation to other critical freight handling locations across the zone. Pakur, a major freight hub in Jharkhand, moves large quantities of coal from the West Bengal Power Development Corporation Ltd (WBPDCL) siding and Gati Shakti Terminal to power plants in West Bengal and Punjab. Pakur is also known for its stone quarries, with ER transporting large volumes of crushed stone chips, aggregates and track ballast in specialised wagons.
Bengal CID, STF probe murder of BJP leader in Bolpur
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 28 (IANS) West Bengal Polices Criminal Investigation Department (CID) and Special Task Force (STF) on Monday began investigating the murder of 47-year-old Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Chandan Bhalla, who was shot dead by miscreants last night in Birbhum districts Bolpur. Police started the investigation at the crime spot in the morning. DIG and District Superintendent of Police Vidit Raj Bhundesh personally supervised the probe. Investigators are examining both political conflict and land dispute angles. The SP said they were pursuing all possible leads. The incident occurred on Sunday night in the Milpara area of Trishulapatti, ward number 12 of Bolpur Municipality. According to the family, Bhalla, who worked as a cashier in the Bolpur Land and Land Reforms Department and was also involved in land transactions, had left home to show a plot to a potential buyer. Two assailants allegedly arrived on a bike and shot him at point-blank range before fleeing. Bhalla was the BJP president of booth number 202 in ward number 11 of Bolpur Municipality. His younger son Subhrakanti Bhalla lodged a written complaint at Bolpur police station, though no specific names were mentioned in the FIR. Police cordoned off the scene immediately after the murder. Police brought a dog from Asansol on Monday morning. The German Shepherd Lucky tracked a trail to Aarti Cinema intersection, about five kilometres away, suggesting the miscreants may have escaped via Bahiri village. Later, a six-member forensic team collected samples including blood, bike tyre marks and shoe prints. Investigators are probing the type of firearm used, the firing distance and the weapons source. Investigators have collected CCTV footage from the scene and nearby areas to identify suspicious movements before and after the incident. Investigators are also checking Bhallas mobile call records to determine who contacted him before the murder and whether any calls were made during the incident. The deceaseds family suspects a political motive. His wife Shyamoli Bhalla said: It is a political murder. My husband was called from his house and shot dead. Let the police arrest the culprits. We want punishment. Our family is broken. BJPs Birbhum organisational district president Udayshankar Banerjee said the matter was under investigation. He added that he had asked police to probe thoroughly and arrest the culprits, and would report the matter to the partys top leadership.
Bengal CM makes big announcement for ICDS centres at 'Angan Milan Sewa' event
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 28 (IANS) West Bengal Chief Minister, Suvendu Adhikari, in the presence of BJP National President Nitin Nabin, on Monday, made big announcements for the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) workers and the ICDS centres in the state. Speaking at the Angan Milan Sewa program at Panihati in North 24 Parganas district of West Bengal on Monday, CM Adhikari said that while a decision to increase the wages of ICDS workers, popularly known as Anganwadi workers, had already been taken by the state Cabinet, there are proposals for thorough upgradation of the Anganwadi centres in the state. Speaking on the occasion, he added that the government had also decided to supply electricity for the Anganwadi centres free of cost in the coming days. In August this year, the salaries of the Anganwadi staff were increased by Rs 5,000 a month. They have been included in the Ayushman Bharat scheme. Under this, treatment up to Rs 5 lakh will be provided free of cost in 38 government and private hospitals in the country, the Chief Minister said at the program. Speaking on the occasion, he said that the Anganwadi centres in the state, which are currently operating from the rented premises, will soon have their own premises. At the moment, 19,000 Anganwadi centres are operating from rented premises. In the future, they will be at the state government-owned premises. Funds have also been allocated for that. At the same time, free electricity will be provided to all ICDS centres in the state, the Chief Minister said. He also announced higher budgetary allocation for the ICDS staff and ICDS centres in the next state budget. Speaking on the occasion, Nabin praised the role of the Anganwadi workers in West Bengal. The ICDS workers, in a sense, are the first teachers of the children, who are the future of our country. So in that way, the future of the country is also in the hands of the ICDS workers, the BJPs National President said. Nabin was also all praise for CM Adhikari and said that under the latters leadership West Bengal will progress towards all round development. I want to assure the sisters associated with the ICDS centres, that your brother Suvendu Adhikari is always there for you and with you. So, keep the good work going, Nabin said.
