Torrential downpours damage 613 km of roads across Andhra Pradesh

Digital Desk | Amaravati, Sep 24 (IANS) Heavy rains under the impact of Deep Depression in the Bay of Bengal have damaged 613 km of roads in Andhra Pradesh, State Minister B.C. Janardhan Reddy said on Thursday. With heavy rain continuing to lash coastal Andhra even after Deep Depression crossed the coast late on Wednesday night, the Minister for Roads and Buildings (R&B) directed the R&B Department officials to remain on high alert. After a review meeting with officials, he said that due to incessant rains, 613 km of R&B roads across the state have sustained damage as of 7 a.m. on Thursday. Srikakulam district accounted for the highest infrastructure damage, with 356 km of roads getting affected. The Deep Depression caused significant road damage in the districts of Srikakulam, Parvathipuram-Manyam, Vizianagaram, Alluri Sitarama Raju, Visakhapatnam, Anakapalli, Kakinada, East Godavari, Ambedkar Konaseema, West Godavari, Anantapur, Kurnool, and Nandyal. Across the state, roads were washed away at four locations due to the formation of deep craters. Cross-drainage (CD) works were damaged at 78 locations, and the restoration work has already been undertaken at 37 of these sites, said the minister. According to the minister, trees fell on roads at 11 locations and have been completely cleared to ensure a smooth flow of vehicles. Heavy rains caused traffic disruptions at 23 locations, he said, adding that the traffic congestion was successfully cleared at 14 of these spots. It is estimated that approximately Rs 26.95 crore is required for temporary repairs and Rs 224.73 crore for permanent restoration of the rain-damaged roads. The R&B Department has established 78 control rooms across the state and appointed nodal officers. We are continuously assessing ground-level conditions by holding 36 joint coordination meetings with departments affiliated with the R&B wing. We have set up toll-free services in major corporations to provide round-the-clock assistance, Janardhan Reddy said. The department identified 614 locations across the state as vulnerable or accident-prone areas. The department has kept 550 JCBs and 596 power saws ready to clear obstructions such as fallen trees and landslides on roads. The minister said personnel and necessary equipment were kept ready for emergency relief operations.

Police crack Secunderabad armoury heist, recover weapons; retired Army officer among four in custody

Digital Desk | Hyderabad, Sep 11 (IANS) In a major breakthrough in the Madras Regiment arms theft case, Telangana Police have recovered the stolen arms and ammunition and taken into custody four suspects including a retired Army officer. A joint team of Telangana Counter Intelligence Cell, Hyderabad Task Force and Malkajgiri Police cracked the case after an 11-day hunt. The theft, reported on August 31, involved 12 firearms, 21 magazines, night-vision equipment and over 1,900 rounds of ammunition from the regiments facility at Bollaram in Secunderabad Cantonment. According to police, those taken into custody include a retired Army officer who is suspected of plotting the theft over a grudge against a former Commanding Officer. The investigators were questioning the suspects about their roles in stealing, transporting and concealing the weapons. The stolen weapons and ammunition were recovered from Nagarkurnool district of Telangana. It was immediately not clear if the entire cache of stolen arms has been recovered. Army officials were verifying the firearms, ammunition and other recovered articles against the armourys inventory. Details of the case are likely to be announced by the authorities later. Twelve firearms, including four AK-203 assault rifles, an INSAS rifle, six 9 mm pistols and a civilian 6.35-bore pistol, were reported missing from the Madras Regiment premises at Bollarum. A passive night-vision binocular, 21 magazines and more than 1,800 rounds of ammunition were also reportedly missing from the Army establishment. The theft came to light on the morning of August 31, when Army personnel opened the Kote and Battalion Magazine, where weapons and ammunition were stored. They found that the locks of the premises and the boxes containing the weapons, control stores and ammunition had been broken. A First Information Report registered with Bollarum Police Station of Malkajgiri Commissionerate stated that the weapons and ammunition had last been physically accounted for at about 6 p.m. on August 30, before the Kote and Battalion Magazine were closed. A case was registered under Sections 331(4) and 305 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. Army officials had ordered an internal enquiry and questioned guard-duty personnel who were on duty when the weapons went missing. Military Intelligence also investigated the case in coordination with the police.

Jagan reiterates demand for Lokeshs resignation, CBI probe into DSC 'irregularities'

Digital Desk | Amaravati, Sep 10 (IANS) Former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and YSR Congress Party President Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy on Thursday reiterated the demand for the resignation of Education Minister Nara Lokesh and a CBI probe into the DSC 2025, saying it is laden with unprecedented 'irregularities' and jobs were given away on a platter to candidates who did not even write the exams. Addressing a press conference at the YSRCP central office in Tadepalli, he questioned the silence of Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu and Minister Nara Lokesh on the questions raised by the opposition regarding the DSC recruitment process. He claimed that irregularities in the recruitment of teachers through DSC 2025 were emerging one after another. Jagan accused the government of deliberately weakening the DSC scam investigation. He asked why Chandrababu Naidu was trying to protect his son and alleged that the government was playing with the lives and futures of unemployed youth. Why were the preparation and supervision of DSC examination papers placed in the hands of a single individual, and why did the government introduce GO No. 4 and GO No. 47? Why were the GOs changed after the recruitment process was complete? he asked. YS Jagan wanted to know how 372 posts under the sports quota were filled without conducting an examination. GO No. 4 and GO No. 47 opened the gates for irregularities, while GO Nos. 23, 25, and 56 were brought in later to close those gates after the work was completed. The former Chief Minister highlighted how jobs were given away, throwing caution to the wind and violating all set norms, and since the DSC was exposed, the coalition government has stalled the APPSC exams, which they planned to recruit in the same modus operandi. Jobs were given to candidates based on participation certificates for tournaments which never took place, he said. Terming the DSC as a gem in the list of scams of Chandrababu, Jagan said, Many skeletons are tumbling out with every passing day from the DSC 2025 cupboard. YS Jagan said that while CM Naidu has been trying hard to cover up the issue to shield his son, officials were running out of words to defend the allegations and their version that the verification was done seven times before giving the jobs stands out as a joke. He accused CM Naidu and his son Lokesh of misleading the legislature only as a cover-up bid. Giving case-by-case details, he explained how jobs were given without writing any exam under the sports quota. According to him, 39 jobs were given in the sports quota; some of them have provided certificates that they participated in a tournament that never took place in Khammam, which was categorically stated by the Judo Association of Telangana, while the fake certificates were given by AP Judo Association, of which the co-brother of Lokesh Bharath is the president. The same malpractice was carried out in Softball, and Kuna Ravi Kumar happens to be its head, he said. One Yogeshwara Rao and his sister were given jobs under sports quota as a family pack on the basis that they won medals in the Kho-Kho Championship held at Nalgonda, but the irony remains that such a competition was never held, as was categorically told by the Telangana Kho-Kho Association. One Basaweshwar Rao claimed that he participated in the 49th Senior Kho-Kho Championship held at Gudivada and was given a participation certificate. Though it was a fake certificate, officials did not take any action, he said. The YSRCP chief mentioned that one Prabhakar of Kurnool district was given a job without writing TET and, as per his reservation quota, he should be getting 75 marks, but he acquired 65 and could get the job. Officials defended the case by stating that he had written the exam multiple times and they had taken the highest mark, but the category was jumbled up. There is a similar mix-up in the case of one Rasool in Kadapa district. He stated that the scam began with giving the responsibility of preparing the question bank and also conduct of exam to the same person, and the leakage came out with the outsourcing person getting access to the paper and getting first rank and his name being deleted from the merit list. Though there was audio-video evidence that the jobs were on the offer, the case was not pursued in the manner it should have been done. The entire exercise has a telling effect on youth who were working hard to write the competitive exams, and cockroaches would emerge with such indifference on the part of the government, he added.
