Bill to regulate coaching centers stalled as Rajasthan Assembly session adjourned indefinitely
JAIPUR: The much anticipated bill to regulate the coaching industry and curb student suicides in Rajasthan has now been put on the back burner. The budget session of the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly, which commenced on January 31, has been adjourned indefinitely. During this session, the state government introduced 14 bills, but only 10 were passed. After extensive discussions and protests, three bills were referred to the Select Committee for reconsideration. These include the Groundwater Management Bill, the Rajasthan Land Revenue Amendment Bill, and the Rajasthan Coaching Center Bill. While ruling party leaders made statements about introducing the Conversion Bill, it was not tabled in the session. As a result, a total of four bills remain pending. While four Bills have got delayed, a huge political storm has erupted over the stalling of the coaching centre bill. On the final day of the session, a heated debate was witnessed between the ruling and opposition parties over the Rajasthan Coaching Center Bill, 2025, which was introduced just a few days ago and aims to regulate coaching centers. Surprisingly, despite the opposition agreeing to pass the bill with minor amendments, the government refused to approve it, leading to its referral to the Select Committee. The opposition accused the government of deliberately stalling the bill, alleging a lack of seriousness in addressing the critical issue as the bill had come about after years of rising student suicides in Kota, called the coaching capital of India. Leader of Opposition Tikaram Jully alleged that the government succumbed to pressure from coaching centers and intentionally sent the bill to the Select Committee. He pointed out that the central government permits 16-year-olds to enroll in coaching institutes, but this provision was missing from the bill. Members from both the opposition and the ruling party criticised the bill, calling it incomplete. Jully made serious allegations against the government, claiming that it had colluded with coaching institutes. He argued that if the government was genuinely concerned about the bill, it would have ensured its passage. He further mocked the Bhajanlal government for setting a precedent by sending three bills to the Select Committee in a single week. Meanwhile, senior BJP MLA Kalicharan Saraf opposed the bill, stating that if passed in its current form, it could force coaching institutes to relocate outside Rajasthan. He warned that this move could render thousands of teachers unemployed and negatively impact the states Rs 60,000-crore coaching industry, leading to excessive bureaucratic control. MLA Jogaram Patel countered the opposition's allegations, asserting that referring a bill to the Select Committee is a democratic process that allows for thorough review and improvement. He emphasised that the government's decision was not a deliberate attempt to stall the bill but rather an effort to refine its provisions. The government maintains that sending the bill to the Select Committee is not a reversal but a necessary step to enhance its effectiveness. The committee will now review all aspects of the bill and submit its report to the Assembly before a final decision is made. No matter what the real reasons or rationale for the decision, the stalling of the coaching centre bill implies that uncertainty now prevails over the first major step to regulate Coaching Centers. As a result, the hope to curb the growing menace of student suicides through this bill is unlikely to turn into reality for the moment.

High-speed tanker crash sparks massive fire on Rajasthan's Bhilwara-Kota highway, one burnt alive
JAIPUR: A devastating accident early on Friday morning near the Ladpura intersection on the Bhilwara-Kota highway resulted in a massive fire, reducing four tankers to ashes. A speeding tanker lost control and crashed into three stationary tankers, triggering a chain of explosions. The intensity of the impact was so severe that all four vehicles were engulfed in flames within moments. Tragically, one driver was trapped inside his truck and perished in the blaze. As soon as authorities were alerted, a police team led by trainee IPS officer Jatin Jain and Bigod police station in-charge Jai Sultan rushed to the accident site. Fire brigade teams battled the raging inferno, with local villagers also stepping in to assist. Eyewitnesses reported that four tankers were lined up near the Ladpura intersection when the speeding tanker rammed into one of them. The impact caused an immediate explosion, and the flames spread rapidly to the other three vehicles. The fire was so intense that one of the drivers had no time to escape and was burned alive inside his truck. The deceased has been identified as Shambhulal Dhakad, a resident of Phoolji Kheda. His body has been moved to the Mandalgarh Hospital mortuary, where a post-mortem will be conducted after his family arrives. The fire triggered panic at the accident site and caused major traffic disruptions on the highway. Vehicles were stuck in long queues on both sides as firefighters worked tirelessly to contain the blaze. It took nearly an hour to fully extinguish the flames. Once the situation was under control, the police cleared the congestion and restored normal traffic flow. Authorities are investigating the incident to determine the exact cause of the crash. Further action will be taken based on their findings.

TNPCB cancels public hearing for Sillahalla power project
NILGIRIS: Following public outcry against the Sillahalla Pumped Hydro-Electric Storage project, Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board (TNPCB) officials have cancelled its meeting with farmers and public, which was scheduled on Thursday at Kundha. While officials say the meeting is cancelled due to administrative reasons, the decision was allegedly taken after a group of residents decided to raise their voice at the meeting and demand authorities to scrap the project. Another group of residents have already started a online signature campaign opposing the project. Of 2,500 signatures target, 1,702 have signed the campaign started by Janardhan Nanjundan. The proposed project will affect over 10,000 people directly and negatively impact over 25 villages. 315 hectares of forest, private, and government lands will be submerged and the project will also be a major threat to wildlife and environment. Indigenous people and farmers will lose their land and be displaced of all forms of livelihood, Janardhan said. The Kundah watershed region in Nilgiris is where the Bhavani-Cauvery River originates. It also supports the last of shola-grassland vegetation mosaic. This region has crucial green cover which serves as important habitats and corridors for endangered wildlife, including Nilgiri tahr and Nilgiri marten, he added. D Venugopal, director of Nilgiris Documentation Centre said, Only Nilgiris and Kanniyakumari in the state have been selected for the project which requires Rs 10,000 crore. The dam has been proposed to satisfy power requirements. But it would come at the cost of damaged environment and the local Badaga community who are involved in farming for generations will lose their livelihood, if the dam is constructed. Although the meeting is called off now, we are going to meet farmers and tribals to explain the issues with the project on Thursday. We learnt that officials have also started preliminary works for the project, and therefore we will be visiting the site as well, said Arun Bellie, an activist based in Kotagiri.

The bill mandates that all coaching institutes must register with the appropriate authorities to ensure accountability. It also introduces measures to regulate fee structures and allows students to pay in installments rather than in one lump sum. Also, if a student decides to withdraw from a course, the institution must refund the remaining amount, including hostel and mess fees, within ten days. Additionally, provisions have been made to offer mental health support, with coaching centres required to provide counseling services and helpline facilities to address student stress and emotional well-being. Awareness campaigns will also be conducted to educate students on handling academic pressures. Strict action will be taken against coaching centres that engage in misleading advertisements, ensuring transparency in their success claims. Institutions with more than 50 students will be subject to legal oversight, and batch sizes will be restricted, preventing new admissions once a session has commenced. To enforce these regulations, a dedicated authority, led by the Secretary of the Higher Education Department, will be established. Amid continued student suicides at Kota, Rajasthan Cabinet approves bill to regulate coaching institutes Violations of the bills provisions will attract severe penalties, including fines of up to Rs 5 lakh and the potential cancellation of an institutes registration. If a coaching centre fails to pay the fines, the amount will be recovered as land revenue arrears. However, a controversy has erupted over the bill due to the removal of the proposed age restriction that would have barred students under 16 from enrolling in coaching institutes. This provision, which was initially included in the draft, was said to be well-aligned with central government recommendations. Surprisingly, it has been omitted from the final version, and has already triggered much debate and criticism. Experts argue that early exposure to intense academic competition causes undue mental strain on young students. While the age restriction aimed to alleviate this burden, critics suggest that its removal favours coaching centres, which rely on younger students for revenue. The forthcoming Assembly debate will determine whether the bill leans more toward safeguarding student welfare or protecting the interests of the coaching industry. Besides the general aims of regulating the coaching industry that has grown rapidly, another inspiration for the bill is the growing trend of student suicides in Kota in the last few years. Last year, there were reports of 17 such deaths in Kota, while in 2023, at least 23 students from coaching centres had died by suicide in the city. This year, Kota has already seen seven student suicides since January.

Study reveals India unprepared for growing heatwave threat; warns of rising deaths
NEW DELHI: A new report indicates India is poorly prepared to handle the increasing number of extreme heatwaves in the future. It claims the country primarily focuses on immediate responses to heatwaves while long-term strategies remain scarce. It warns that India may witness more deaths due to more frequent, intense, and prolonged heatwaves in the coming years. The report is produced by the Sustainable Futures Collaborative (SFC), a non-profit based in New Delhi, and co-authored by scholars from Kings College London, Harvard University, Princeton University, and the University of California, Berkeley. Many long-term measures must be implemented now, with urgency, to have a chance of preventing significant increases in mortality and economic damage in the coming decades, says Aditya Valiathan Pillai, a researcher at Kings College London and coauthor of the study. Experts pointed out that a major problem with short-term measures is that their impact cannot be easily verified until long-term measures are implemented. Short-term measures are life-saving actions, while long-term actions look at strengthening and capacity-building health systems and environmental steps to reduce future impact. It surveys nine major metro cities and identifies short-term and long-term emergency measures to mitigate rising heatwaves. These cities Bengaluru, Delhi, Faridabad, Gwalior, Kota, Ludhiana, Meerut,Mumbai and Surat together make up over 11 percent of Indias urban population, according to Census 2011, and are some of Indias most at-risk cities for future heat. The report finds that the surveyed cities focus on immediate responses to heat waves, while long-term actions remain rare. Even where they do exist, they are poorly targetted. The report recommends urgent institutional changes to measures, including assessing vulnerability and identifying urban heat islands, building the capacity of health staff and implementers of the heat action plan, and investing in technology to provide energy-efficient cooling devices. However, the report also underlined barriers to implementing the heat wave mitigation action plan. It states that coordination problems among institutions emerged as the top barrier, followed by competing priorities limiting the focus on heat. Around 14% of surveyed people said they do not see heat as a problem. The study used different climate models to identify the nine cities with a recent rise in dangerous heat index values and a population above one million. For analysis, interviews were conducted with city, district, and state government officials responsible for implementing heat actions in these cities.

Ram Temple Trust to meet in Ayodhya on March 16
LUCKNOW: The trustees of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust will meet in Ayodhya on March 16, as the construction work of the Ram temple is being expedited to meet the April 15 deadline. The meeting will be held at the Maniram Chhavani temple, and temple trust chief Mahant Nritya Gopal Das will preside over it. Temple Trust general secretary Champat Rai, treasurer Govind Dev Giri, members Swami Vasudevanand Saraswati, Swami Vishwaprasann Tirtha and Dr Anil Mishra, temple construction committee chairman Nripendra Mishra, central and state government representatives, and district officials are expected to attend the meeting. The last meeting of the temple trust took place in November last year, during which discussions were held over the donations received and the expenses incurred on the Ram temples construction. However, the sources claimed that deliberations that will take place on March 16 will review the status of the upcoming temples second and third floors, the construction of other shrines on the premises, public facilities, as well as the donations and the expenditures. In the meeting, deliberation will also be held over key decisions regarding the Ram Navami celebrations. Significantly, the first floor of the temple was completed last year, and it was marked by the consecration of the child form of Lord Ram in sanctum sanctorum on January 22, 2024. Meanwhile, amid delays, the Ram Mandir Construction Committee had expedited the construction works on the temples planned on Ram Janmabhoomi premises and complete them before the end of its tenure. As per the committees chairman, Nripendra Misra, there is a delay of three months in the construction work of the Ram Mandir. The temples parkota will be completed by September, Misra had told media persons during his visit to the temple town last week. He had attributed the delay in construction to Holi as many workers visited their home towns.About 20,000 cubic feet of stone is yet to be laid in the temple. He had added that the construction work of the temple (main temple complex) was likely to be completed by April. Apprising about the challenges, Misra had said that approximately 20 acres of land would be beautified to remain in tune with nature. Over 1.25 crore devotees visited the Ram temple during 45 days of Mahakumbh. The count was tracked using AI and door metal detectors. Devotees also contributed donations of around Rs 15 lakh daily. The influx of devotees began on Makar Sankranti and continued unabated till Maha Shivratri. From January 26 onwards, on average of around 10 to 12 lakh devotees thronged the temple town. However, the tenure of the Ram Mandir Construction Committee, which was constituted on the directives of the Supreme Court, will end by December this year. The construction of sapth mandir on Ram Janmabhoomi premises will be completed in April and the idols will be installed with Vedic rituals in all temples. The date for the consecration ceremony will be finalised by the Shree Ram Janmabhoomi Tirath Kshetra Trust, said Misra. While the Ram Mandir Construction Committee makes all decisions related to the construction work, the temple trust makes decisions regarding the management of the temple. Notably, the Ram Mandir is constructed over a 2.77-acre plot. The Ram Janmabhoomi premises is spread across a cavernous 70-acre area, comprising, at least seven other temples, a 732-meter-long circumambulation path known as a parkota, greenery and a bevy of smaller shrines. The temples of Hindu saints, including Valmiki, Vashishtha, Vishwamitra, Agastya, along with Nishadraj and Ahilya, are coming up in the complex. The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir has been constructed in the traditional Nagara style. Its length (east-west) is 380 feet; width is 250 feet and height is 161 feet; and is supported by a total of 392 pillars and 44 doors.
ISRO undocks its two satellites in maiden attempt
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Thursday announced the undocking of its two satellites as part of the SpaDeX mission - SDX01 and SDX02 - after nearly two months. The docking of the two satellites, after three unsuccessful attempts, happened on January 16, 2025. The research organisation took to social media platform X to announce the news. ISRO also released videos showing how the undocking of the two satellites happened and how they were functioning. Spadex undocking captured from both SDX-1 & SDX-2! Watch the spectacular views of this successful separation in orbit. Congratulations to India on this milestone! #Spadex #ISRO #SpaceTech pic.twitter.com/7u158tgKSG ISRO (@isro) March 13, 2025 ISRO Chairman V Narayanan told The New Indian Express that it is a proud moment for us as the undocking has happened in its first attempt. He admitted that there were some technical glitches due to which earlier attempts were made before the docking was done. But the undocking happened in its very first attempt. Now, the working of the two satellites will be studied, they will be photographed by each of the satellites, and their operations will be monitored. We carried out systematic experiments before undocking. We will be carrying out further experiments post-docking. The aim of the experiment is not to just dock and undock, but future missions - Chandrayaan-4, setting up of Bharatiya Antariksh Mission, and Man on the Moon mission - for all this, docking and undocking of the two satellites is just the beginning. The aim of ISRO is to hold the leader position in the space research sector, so time is not a constraint. We want to excel in the working, Narayanan said. The Space Docking Experiment (SpaDeX) mission was launched on December 30, 2024, from Sriharikota on the PSLV-C60. The two satellites, weighing 220 kg each, were launched into the 470 km circular orbit at a 55-degree inclination with a local time cycle of 66 days. The mission cost Rs 370 crore. According to ISRO, while the docking was done at 1:00:04 on Thursday, the scientists took their time to analyse the data and confirm the news with images and videos before making it public. At 10:04 am, ISRO, on its X platform, posted that the docking had been completed successfully. ISRO announced the undocking at 12:21 pm. It may be recollected that initially, the docking was to take place on January 7, but then it was postponed to January 9, as the distance between the two satellites was 500 metres and 225 metres. Later, the two satellites, also called the Target and Chaser, were brought as close as 3 metres and were then separated to a safer distance again by the teams.

Chhattisgarhs Kanger Valley National Park to be India's new UNESCO heritage claimant
RAIPUR: In a significant achievement for Chhattisgarh's tourism, the states Kanger Valley National Park is India's new UNESCO heritage claimant with its unique biodiversity. The park has been included in the tentative list of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites, marking the first site in Chhattisgarh to achieve this prestigious recognition. It was an arduous journey to get the exceptional beauty and historical importance of Kanger Valley recognised to this stage. In December 2023, the Chhattisgarh government and the Archaeological Survey of India planned to facilitate global awareness of this amazing site. Experts carried out an in-depth study about its biodiversity, archaeological ancestry and unique ecosystem and later, a proposal was sent to include its name in the UNESCO tentative list. Chhattisgarh achieved the first vital step to get entry into the special list carrying names of places that can be declared as World Heritage in future. The state keeps its hopes alive that Kanger Valley will get the status of permanent World Heritage in the coming years. It is a matter of pride for the state that Kanger Valley has been included in the UNESCO Tentative List, which will open up new possibilities in tourism and employment. We will continue to work together to preserve our heritage in the future, said Vishnu Deo Sai, Chhattisgarh chief minister. A government spokesperson said that Kanger Valley is not just a forest, it is an incredible realm that for many, appears like a fairy tale world. The region, with more than 15 mysterious caves such as Kotamsar, Kailash and Dandak caves, looks no less than a mystical world. The 15 limestone caves in the Valley are not only geological wonders but also narrate archaeological stories. Various rare animalsotters, mouse deer, giant squirrels, Lethis softshell turtles, and wild wolves, among others thrive in this park. More than 200 bird species wing their way above in the sky with a colorful carpet of over 900 plants on the ground. Across this bio-geography landscape, over 140 different butterflies fill the air with colour. In the surrounding villages inhabited by Dhruva and Gond tribes, the Kanger Valley forest is not just a jungle but a part of their culture and life. With the increase in tourism, new employment opportunities will also open up for the locals. A few months ago, Dhudmaras village of Bastar gained the attention of the world with its simplicity and has been included in the top 20 villages of the world by joining the UNWTO's Best Tourist Village promotion programme. Now Kanger Valley has taken the regional glory to another height.
