UP ATS arrests army jawan with 70 AK-47 rounds; says he planned to sell them
LUCKNOW: The Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) of Uttar Pradesh Police arrested an army jawan who was carrying 70 cartridges of an AK-47 rifle and was reportedly planning to sell them to a friend in the Pallavpuram area of Meerut district in western UP. According to police sources, when the ATS team tried to take him into custody, the army jawan, named Rahul, attempted to escape by dodging the cops. He got into his car and tried to flee by ramming it into the ATS team. However, the officers surrounded him and managed to catch him soon after foiling his attempt. During questioning, Rahul said that he had come home on leave and was trying to deliver the cartridges to his friend. A case was registered at Pallavpuram police station under sections of the Arms Act. The accused is currently posted at the Army Telecommunication Centre in Ahmednagar, Maharashtra. Police, ATS, and army officials are jointly investigating the matter. His mobile phone records are also being checked to find out if more people are involved. As per ATS sources, Rahul is a resident of Nangli Azad village under Daurala police station limits. He is currently on leave. Meerut ATS unit inspector Amit Kumar Bhati said that on Tuesday, acting on an informer's tip-off, they were conducting checking under the Delhi-Haridwar bypass Modipur post flyover. During this operation, a Hyundai Venue car was stopped and checked. Inside, 70 restricted cartridges of an AK-47 rifle were recovered from Rahul's possession. During interrogation, Rahul revealed that he is currently posted as a constable in the Army at the CT Battalion MIC & S Training Centre in Ahmednagar, Maharashtra. He said that he came on a 30-day leave on June 9. ATS sources further said that Rahul disclosed a friend named Abhinav, who he claimed was with the ATS. Abhinav, a resident of Shastri Nagar, had allegedly asked Rahul for the cartridges back in February, saying he had lost his own. Rahul told investigators that Abhinav had called him at 10:30 pm on Tuesday to meet near A to Z Colony in Pallavpuram. Rahul reportedly reached the location, but Abhinav never showed up. Rahul also revealed that he had procured the cartridges during his earlier posting in Jammu and Kashmir. He claimed that during army operations, he and his team were issued weapons and ammunition, and during that period, he stole some cartridges and brought them to Meerut, hidden in his luggage. Rahul further claimed that a doctor from Shastri Nagar had introduced him to Abhinav a few months ago, and that he had also bought his car through Abhinav. Contradictorily, ATS sources said that it was based on Abhinavs input that Rahul was apprehended and the cartridges recovered. Rahul was recruited into the Army in 2013. The ATS said the recovered cartridges were army-grade and used in military operations. Investigators are now trying to determine who the cartridges were meant for, who uses such restricted ammunition, and whether there is a wider network involved. Authorities are also probing Rahuls contacts and movements since he came on leave. According to Daurala Circle Officer PC Agarwal, a man named Rahul was arrested with cartridges. A case has been filed under the Arms Act and he has been sent to jail.
Anatomy of a crime: Sonam, Muskan and more why are women criminals different?
NEW DELHI: Sonam, Muskan, Shivani, Ravina, Radhika framed in their dual identities as women and alleged 'husband killers' , they have not just grabbed headlines and courted notoriety over the last months but also challenged conventional notions about femininity and crime. The young women from various parts of the country were living their everyday lives, a world away from the national spotlight. Until they were arrested on charges of murdering their husbands. That they were women from small towns who broke out of stereotype in the most brutal way possible led to sensational headlines, frantic curiosity and also gave fodder to a series of misogynistic memes and jokes. The questions abound: Why do women commit crimes? Why are they treated differently than male criminals? Are they demonstrating empowerment or signs that they are, in fact, disempowered? It's a mix of social stigma, rigid gender roles, and unrealistic standards for women, experts said. British criminologist Frances Heidensohn has a term for the strong societal reaction double deviance theory. A woman committing a crime not only violates a legal norm but also a gender norm, explained G S Bajpai, professor of criminology and vice chancellor of the National Law University in Delhi. Women are expected to be caring and compliant. A woman who commits crime is therefore an aberration - abnormal and exceptional. This is not true for men... She is, therefore, as some scholars have described, doubly deviant and hence must be doubly punished'. Thus her gender becomes relevant to society's response to the crime. She is not just a criminal, she is a female criminal, Bajpai told PTI. The National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) reported over 4.45 lakh crimes against women in 2022. However, it doesn't maintain a separate category for crimes 'by' women due to their low numbers. Yet serious offences committed by women, however small in number, make an impact all their own. On Tuesday, Sonam Raghuvanshi , a household name today, was taken to Meghalaya to reconstruct the killing of her husband , Raja Raghuvanshi, found hacked to death on a hillside, a critical step in the probe into a case that has the nation agog. The Indore couple was on their honeymoon and the bride allegedly plotted the killing along with her former boyfriend and three hitmen. In March this year, Muskan Rastogi and her lover Sahil Shukla allegedly stabbed her husband Saurabh Rajput to death in Meerut, dismembered his body, and sealed the remains in a drum filled with cement. 36 days of marriage, one deadly meal: Jharkhand bride kills husband in chilling echo of Raja Raghuvanshi case In April, Bijnor's Shivani claimed her husband died of a heart attack. Police later revealed that she had strangled Deepak to death. The same month, in Bhiwani, YouTuber Ravina allegedly killed her husband with the help of a male friend after he objected to their intimacy and her social media activities. Also in June, Sangli woman Radhika allegedly killed her husband, Anil, only 15 days after their marriage. Except for Ravina who is 32, the others are in their 20s. Then there was media executive Indrani Mukerjea , accused of killing her daughter Sheena Bora in 2012, and Jolly Joseph from Kerala, who allegedly poisoned six family members over 14 years to acquire property. And long before, in 19th-century Kolkata was Troilokya Devi, a courtesan and India's first known female serial killer who lured women -- mainly sex workers - and murdered them to rob them of their jewellery. With an accomplice, she killed at least five women before being apprehended and was executed in 1884. Many of the recent cases - dealing with wives killing their husbands -- triggered a flood of social media outrage and prolonged media coverage that often painted women as inherently malicious and portrayed men as helpless victims of their evil spouses. One instance of the vile and misogynist ride on social media websites was a crude callback to Sonam Bewafa Hai (Sonam is unfaithful) viral meme from some years ago. Public focus is misdirected, said women's rights activist Yogita Bhayana. It reflects our discomfort with women breaking out of the roles assigned to them. Such societal suppression will eventually lead to outbursts. The media is sensationalising it, giving it a Sonam did it' spin, as if she acted alone, which she didn't-there was male involvement too, Bhayana told PTI. Referring to the Sonam Raghuvanshi case, she said it became easier for her to plot a murder than to admit she was in love. That's the kind of psychological conflict women face in our society. Her crime isn't being defended, but we need to examine the root causes -- how deeply our culture conditions women to behave a certain way. Men, Bajpai added, are motivated primarily by power, honour, impulse, and instrumental goals while female crime is often propelled by prior victimisation, manipulation, and emotional stress. A society that views women as caregivers and crucibles of honour is no doubt disturbed when those women engage in criminal activity, Bajpai said. Intimate partner violence is neither new nor uncommon, as global and national trends have indicated that instances of husbands killing their wives far outnumber instances of wives killing their husbands, he argued. In fact, over half of all cases of homicide against women in India are carried out by their current or former partnersThis indicates that the media reporting of cases of women killing their husbands is disproportionate, he noted. According to criminal psychologist Deepti Puranik, there may be a number of reasons behind such an outburst against social ties. Culture and society generally play a lot of roles when it comes to marriages. People are forced to get married against their wishes. Many people are getting married very early and at that age they haven't reached an emotional maturity level to understand the responsibility that comes with a marital relationship, she said. Bhayana echoed Puranik. Women's mental health and internal struggles are ignored, she said. The suppression they face growing up, the communication barriers, and the unrealistic expectations placed on them all builds up. Stories of women criminals have often followed a predictable pattern -- centred on themes like extramarital affairs. This reflects a broader lack of nuance in how such cases are understood, revealing gaps in the way female criminality and its complex motivations are examined. Kulpreet Yadav, co-author of Queens of Crime: True Stories of Women Criminals from India, said law enforcement procedures have never truly adapted to consider women as potential perpetrators because of the scant number of crimes by women. ...the focus has overwhelmingly been on male offenders. Female criminology, by contrast, has received very little attention. As a result, our global understanding of how a woman with criminal intent thinks is quite limited, said the author. Does that mean crime should be treated the same irrespective of the perpetrator's gender? Bajpai advises strongly against it. Such a blanket approach may result in injustice. At times, given the nature and context of the crime, the gender of the perpetrator and the victim become relevant to appropriately understanding the criminal act. Such a comprehensive appreciation of the facts ensures that the response of the state and society is fair and effective, he said.

India under the leadership of PM Modi is set to become third-largest economy by 2027: UP CM Yogi
LUCKNOW: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath stated today that India is poised to become the world's third-largest economy by 2027, propelled by its unprecedented growth in the last decade. Speaking on the 11th anniversary of the Modi government , CM Yogi highlighted that India was the only major economy to have doubled in size within a decade, and the first country to more than double its per capita income, rising from Rs 79,000 in 2013-14 to approximately Rs 2.5 lakh currently. Interacting with media persons, CM Yogi congratulated Prime Minister Modi on behalf of the UP government and the people of the state for ushering in a golden era of development. He presented a report card on the Centre's good governance and welfare initiatives. CM Yogi stated that India's economy, unstable and lacking public confidence before 2014, was the world's 11th largest despite decades of independence. However, under Prime Minister Modis leadership of a decade, the country has risen to become the fourth largest economy, surpassing Britainits former colonial rulerand now overtaking Japan, he added. He emphasised the transformative impact on infrastructure over the past 11 years, calling it the ackbone of a strong economy. He noted that The pace of highway construction has tripledfrom 11 km/day during the UPA era to over 35 km/day today. About 3.8 lakh km of rural roads have been built, connecting 99% of villages under the Pradhan Mantri Gramin Sadak Yojana, he claimed adding that 3,600 km of high-speed corridors were developed, and Indias first rapid rail was now operational between Delhi and Meerut. Indias growth story remains resilient as global economy lags: RBI governor Shaktikanta Das India became a global identity under PM Modi: CM yogi Adityanath The Chief Minister further detailed infrastructure development, stating, Since 2014, over 55,000 km of highways have been expanded. Metro services, earlier limited to 5 cities, are now running in 23 cities, including six in Uttar Pradesh. World-class trains like the Namo Bharat, Amrit Bharat, and Vande Bharat Express are redefining rail travel. Airport infrastructure has also doubledfrom 74 airports built in 67 years to 160 airports today. In Uttar Pradesh alone, operational airports have increased from 2 in 2017 to 16 of which four are international airports, while the fifth at Jewar will be operational soon, said the UP CM. CM Yogi credited Prime Minister Modi for giving India a global identity and transforming service into a pledge, governance into a culture, and security into a prioritymarking the rise of a developed, self-reliant New India. He stated that PM Modi believed where there was technology, there was progressand where there was a BJP government, there was also welfare of the poor. He added that PM Modi had redefined governance as a medium of service and partnership with the people. In the last 11 years, service has become a resolution, good governance a culture, and security the highest priority. This is the new Indiaan India the world trusts, said CM Yogi. The Chief Minister criticised previous Congress-led governments for breaking public trust and damaging India's global image in the 65 years after independence. In contrast, he said, the last 11 years under Prime Minister Modi have provided a corruption-free, nepotism-free, and appeasement-free leadership. He added that Modi ji had realised the vision of Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat, turned India into a symbol of trust, laid the foundation of a developed and self-reliant nation, and presented a clear roadmap for the next 25 years. CM Yogi reiterated that in the last 11 years, India has carved a distinct identity not just socially and culturally, but also in security, governance, and economy. Governance today is defined by policy clarity, transparency, and accountability. Development is no longer just a sloganit now reflects inclusive progress that balances heritage with growth. Every citizen now benefits from government schemes based on eligibility, not identity. Sabka Saath, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Prayas has become the foundation of governance, driven by citizen satisfaction rather than appeasement. The country has witnessed a strong model of zero tolerance for corruption, Minimum Government, Maximum Governance through Digital India, and unwavering commitment to national unity and internal security, said CM Yogi. Referring to India's military strength, the UP CM noted that the 11 years of PM Modis government are being marked at a time when Indias military strength had been both tested and trusted globallyas seen through Operation Sindoor. He observed that before 2014, India was perceived as a nation that spoke of peace even when provoked. But under PM Modi, a new doctrinethe New Normalhad emerged. While India prefers peaceful development with like-minded nations, any breach of security or promotion of terrorism will be met with decisive action like surgical strikes, air strikes, and Operation Sindoor , said the CM. He also commended the abrogation of Article 370, stating it brought Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh fully into the constitutional fold, establishing a new model of Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat from Kashmir to Kanyakumari. CM Yogi concluded by saying that during the Amrit Mahotsav of Independence, PM Modi gave the nation the mantra of a Viksit Bharat (Developed India), rooted in the Panch Pran (Five Pledges): building a developed India, freeing the country from the mentality of slavery, pride in heritage, strengthening unity and integrity, and fulfilling civic duties.

Allahabad HC declares arrest of two accused in Chhattisgarh liquor scam as 'illegal'
LUCKNOW: In a major ruling, Allahabad High Court declared that the arrest of Anwar Dhebar, a Chhattisgarh-based businessman and brother of former Raipur mayor and former IAS officer Anil Tuteja, both accused in a money laundering case of Rs 2000 crore Chhattisgarh liquor scam, as illegal. A division bench, comprising Justice Siddharth Varma and Justice Madan Pal Singh, granted bail to Dhebar in connection with the FIR lodged against him in Meerut. The bench noted that the arrest memos did not have any column for the ground on which the petitioner was arrested, nor was given the reason for arrest. The court in its order stated that here being a definite non-compliance of the mandate of Section 50 of the CrPC and Article 22(1) of the Constitution of India, we are of the view that the arrest of the petitioner be declared illegal and all subsequent arrest memos be quashed and also the remand orders be set aside, said the bench. In connection with the chain of events related to the Chhattisgarh liquor scam, an FIR was lodged against Dhebar in Uttar Pradesh under sections 420, 468, 471, 473, 484 and 120-B of the Indian Penal Code on July 30, 2023. Almost 11 months later, on June 18, 2024, Dhebar, who had been granted bail by the Chhattisgarh High Court, was again arrested by UP police just 20 minutes after his release in Raipur. Following the arrest, the Investigation Officer (IO) applied for a transit remand under Section 167 of CrPC before the magistrate at Raipur and it was granted for 48 hours. Subsequently, Dhebar was produced before the special judge (Prevention of Corruption Act) of Meerut, who remanded him to judicial custody until July 1, 2024. Finally, Dhebar moved Allahabad High Court and his plea was clubbed with the petition filed by the other accused ex-IAS officer Anil Tuteja who was arrested separately in the connection with the same case. As both the petitions sought the court to declare their arrest illegal, they were heard together by the court. On the other hand, the Additional Advocate General for the state submitted that since there was a memo of arrest and the son of the petitioner Dhebar had been informed about the arrest, the arrest could not be held illegal as the reason for it was known to the petitioner. The bench however was not satisfied with the Additional Advocate General's contention, and it stated that neither in the memos of arrest nor in the information given to Dhebar's son or in the remand orders were given the ground of arrest communicated to the petitioners. Furthermore, the court also observed that the petitioners were given no opportunity of hearing to oppose the custodial remand. The court concluded that the petitioners were never furnished the grounds of arrest as mandated under Section 50 of CrPC. Declaring their arrests illegal, the court refused to interfere with the charge-sheet submitted by the investigation officer. The Court, however, clarified that the proceedings following law as per the charge-sheet may continue in the case.

BKU Atal chief booked for announcing bounty to behead Rakesh Tikait
LUCKNOW : A man identified as Amit Chaudhary, president of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (Atal), has been booked over a social media post in which he allegedly announced a reward of Rs 5 lakh for anyone who would behead Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) leader Rakesh Tikait. The viral post sparked protests by Tikait's followers in Muzaffarnagar and Meerut. Cases were registered against Chaudhary at Civil Lines Police Stations in Muzaffarnagar, Meerut, and Agra. Muzaffarnagar Station House Officer Ashutosh Kumar Singh stated that in the viral video, the accused purportedly announced a Rs 5 lakh reward for the beheading of Tikait. A case was also lodged against Chaudhary in the Jani police station area of Meerut, confirmed by Station In-charge Mahesh Kumar Rathore. In a video released in Meerut on Sunday, Amit Chaudhary is shown stating that he would give Rs 5 lakh to anyone who beheads Rakesh Tikait. Declaring Tikait a raitor, terrorist and madman, Chaudhary accused him of making anti-national statements. From his statements, it is clear that he is part of a sleeper cell. They work with a terrorist mentality and make statements against society or the government, Chaudhary reportedly said in the video. Following his remarks, several farmers staged protests at the Jani police station in Meerut on Sunday afternoon. Chaudhary also criticised Tikait for allegedly insulting traders. Rakesh Tikait is calling traders dishonest and speaking about dealing with them. I want to say that the countrys traders are its backbone. Their role in the GDP is significant. It is the trader who adds value to the farmers crop by purchasing it and bringing it to the market. For farmers, traders should be revered, he said. He further stated that Tikait operated with a terrorist sleeper cell mentality and that such individuals should be beheaded. Now, merely removing Rakesh Tikaits turban will not sufficehis head must be severed. Given the kind of statements and mentality he is displaying, we must not stop at his turban; we must behead him. I will offer Rs 5 lakh to anyone who carries it out, he declared. Notably, on 2 May, Rakesh Tikait faced intense public outrage in Muzaffarnagar over his comments on the Pahalgam terror attack. During the protest, there was pushing and shoving, and someone struck his head with a flag, causing his turban to fall off. Right-wing organisations strongly protested against him. The situation became so tense during the demonstration that police had to escort the farmer leader out of the area. However, Tikait managed to leave safely and was not injured.
UP man booked for announcing reward for beheading BKU's Rakesh Tikait in social media post
MUZAFFARNAGAR: A man has been booked over his social media post in which he allegedly announced a reward for anyone who beheads Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) leader Rakesh Tikait. With the viral post sparking protests by the followers of the farmer leader in Muzaffarnagar and Meerut, a case was registered against Amit Choudhry at the Civil Lines Police Station in Muzaffarnagar. Station House Officer Ashutosh Kumar Singh said on Sunday that in the viral video, the accused purportedly announced a reward of Rs 5 lakh for the beheading of Tikait. Led by the BKU's Muzaffarnagar district president Naveen Rathi, hundreds of protesters demanded immediate police action against Choudhry. Rathi said he has lodged an FIR against the accused. In Meerut, BKU activists gheraoed Jani police station, demanding action against Chowdhury. BKU Meerut district president Anurag Chaudhary led a tractor-trolley protest and staged a sit on the police station premises. Police in both districts issued statements regarding the registration of FIRs but did not elaborate on the accused and reasons why he made such statements against Tikait. It is part of the probe, they said.

Roof Collapses At Delhi's New Ashok Nagar Station Amid Heavy Rain, Services Halted
A section of the steel roof at New Ashok Nagar station on the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS corridor was damaged due to heavy rainfall accompanied by a strong windstorm on Saturday, an official statement.
NEW DELHI: The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) on Saturday informed Union Minister of State for Road Transport and Highways, Harsh Malhotra, that the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway would be ready within three months. Malhotra inspected the entire 210-km stretch of the expressway along with officials from the Authority. The minister took cognisance of the various bottlenecks reported by NHAI officials and directed them to expedite the work and complete the project within the stipulated time frame so that it could be opened to the general public as scheduled. After the inspection, the minister stated that the expressway would be instrumental in decongesting the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi and also reduce the load on the Delhi-Meerut Expressway and other connecting highways. The 210-kilometre-long access-controlled expressway, with an operational speed limit of 100 kmph, will connect the national capital with Uttarakhands capital, Dehradun. It starts from Akshardham Temple in Delhi and passes through several districts of Uttar Pradesh, such as Baghpat, Baraut, Muzaffarnagar, Shamli and Saharanpur, before culminating at Dehradun. The project was expected to be completed within the deadline of March 2024. It was approved in 2020, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation of the expressway in December last year. The expressway is being developed at an approximate cost of 12,000 crore and will reduce the travel time from Delhi to Dehradun from the existing 6.5 hours to 2.5 hours. The expressway will also have a spur towards Haridwar and connect to the Char Dham Highway, thereby enhancing connectivity to the hill stations and pilgrimage sites of Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh. The final 20-kilometre stretch passes through the eco-sensitive zone of Rajaji National Park, where Asias longest elevated wildlife corridor (12 kilometres) is being constructed. This includes the 340-metre Daat Kali tunnel.

'Food adulteration is a social crime,' says UP CM Yogi; calls for public shaming of offenders
LUCKNOW: Launching a renewed crackdown on those involved in food adulteration and the sale of counterfeit medicines, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday termed the menace a social crime, declaring that such acts would not be tolerated. In a strong deterrent measure, the CM called for the public identification of offenders by displaying their photos at major intersections to raise awareness and discourage others. Chairing a high-level review meeting of the Food Safety and Drug Administration (FSDA) department in Lucknow, Adityanath directed officials to take strict and decisive action against adulterators, fake medicine traders, and others under the states zero tolerance policy. He instructed that daily consumables such as oil, ghee, spices, milk, and cheese be tested rigorouslypreferably at production unitsto ensure quality. Special teams should be formed to carry out intensive checks of milk and dairy products with continuous monitoring, he said. Additionally, professional blood donors should be identified, and effective control should be established in this sector, he added. Public health is the state's top priority and it must be handled with full transparency and commitment. Officials informed the CM that the states network of food and drug laboratories had expanded significantly. Apart from six major divisions already in operation, new laboratories and offices have been established in Aligarh, Ayodhya, Azamgarh, Bareilly, Basti, Chitrakoot, Kanpur, Mirzapur, Moradabad, Prayagraj, Saharanpur, and Devi Patan divisions. Laboratory buildings in Lucknow, Gorakhpur, and Jhansi have also been upgraded, while three modern microbiology labs have been set up in Lucknow, Meerut, and Varanasi. These facilities are equipped for testing microorganisms, protozoa, viruses, bacteria, mycotoxins, and other pathogens. Testing is already underway in Lucknow and Meerut. The Chief Minister suggested the creation of a Corpus Fund to support the operation and maintenance of these laboratories. To tackle the fake drug trade effectively, Adityanath directed improved coordination between FSDA and police authorities to ensure better enforcement and drug quality checks. For transparency in the food safety process, FSDA has implemented a password-protected barcode system, allowing confidential and impartial sample analysis. Each sample is digitally tested by scientists and validated only after senior official approval. To boost public involvement, the department has introduced a mobile app called Food Safety Connect and a toll-free number (1800-180-5533). The CM instructed that a complaint be considered resolved only after the complainant expresses satisfaction. Significant progress has also been reported in the pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing sectors. Over the past three years, investment proposals worth 1,470 crore have been approved, generating direct employment for more than 3,340 people. There has also been a notable increase in pharmaceutical units, medical device production, blood banks, and retail medicine sellers across the state.

Asia's most endangered turtle species returns to Ganga in landmark conservation effort
LUCKNOW: The 'batagur kachhua' (red-crowned roofed turtle), a freshwater species once considered one of Asias most endangered, is on the path to revival and is set to return to Uttar Pradesh. In a first-of-its-kind initiative, the Uttar Pradesh government, in coordination with the Namami Gange programme and in collaboration with the Indian Turtle Conservation Program (ITCP), has reintroduced the species into the river Gangamarking a major milestone in efforts to revive critically endangered aquatic life. As part of this initiative, 10 male and 10 female turtles, aged between two and three years, were released at two ecologically crucial sites: upstream in the Haiderpur Wetland and downstream in the Hastinapur Wildlife Sanctuary. According to Rajesh Kumar, Divisional Forest Officer (DFO) of the Meerut Range, the turtles were carefully selected based on health, sex, and morphometric characteristics. It has been a scientifically significant attemptthe first of its kind in India for this species, said Kumar, calling the move a landmark achievement. To monitor the animals, each turtle has been fitted with a sonic transmitter attached to its shell, enabling conservationists to track their movements and behaviour in real time. The data collected will help researchers understand the turtles behavioural patterns, adaptation to the new environment, and the challenges they may encounter. This will also help conservationists chart out the future course and make subsequent reintroductions more effective, said a senior official involved in the project. Once widespread across the Ganga and Brahmaputra river systems, the red-crowned roofed turtle now survives in the wild only in the Chambal River, where fewer than 300 individuals are believed to remain. The species is listed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List and is also recognised among the Top 50 Most Endangered Tortoises and Freshwater Turtles in Asia. Officials confirmed that globally accepted translocation protocols were strictly followed. The turtles were released in the Ganga during the early hours of April 26, 2025. The conservation teams ensured the animals were well-hydrated, stress-free, and transported at night to avoid daytime heat exposure. Importantly, the reintroduction event was designed to be more than just a scientific operationit was also a celebration of community-led conservation. Local villagers, school students, and religious leaders (sadhus) gathered along the riverbank to witness the turtles return to the Ganga. Officials believe that this reintroduction efforthailed as a model for similar conservation projects across Indiawill not only support the revival of the red-crowned roofed turtle but also contribute vital data toward the conservation of other endangered freshwater species.

IAF showcases night-ready airstrip on Ganga Expressway in Uttar Pradesh
LUCKNOW: In a significant boost to Indias defence capabilities, the Indian Air Force (IAF) conducted a powerful display of fighter jet operations on a newly constructed 3.5-kilometre airstrip along the Ganga Expressway in Peeru village, Jalalabad tehsil of Shahjahanpur district, marking a major milestone in military preparedness amid heightened security concerns. It is the first airstrip on any expressway in the country equipped to handle both day and night landings of fighter jets with the help of advanced lighting and navigation systems installed on-site. The airstrip is part of the around 594-kilometre-long Ganga Expressway connecting Meerut to Prayagraj. With 85 per cent of the expressway construction already completed, this airstrip is the fourth operational stretch on a UP Expressway designed for Indian Air Force operations. The other three facilities are there on the Agra-Lucknow, Purvanchal, and Bundelkhand Expressways. However, the one on Ganga Expressway is the first among them to support night operations. The IAF conduct fighter jet exercises at the Shahjahanpur airstrip in two phases. The drills featured aircraft like the Rafale, Sukhoi-30 MKI, Mirage-2000, MiG-29, Jaguar, C-130J Super Hercules, AN-32 transport aircraft, and MI-17 V5 helicopters. The IAF fighter jets conducted flypasts over the expressway as part of a broader exercise designed to assess the viability of the facility as an alternative runway in the event of war or national emergencies. Take-off and landing drills were carried out throughout the day and late into the evening to test the airstrip's full operational spectrum, including its night capabilities, showing the preparedness of IAFs night campaigns. The airstrip has been developed using specially engineered materials to bear the weight and pressure of heavy-duty military aircraft. It features precision approach lighting, reinforced pavement strength, and CAT II Instrument Landing System (ILS) technology to ensure safe operations in low-visibility or night-time conditions. The Indian Air Force has emphasised that this strip not only enhances the country's operational readiness but also strengthens its disaster response capacity and rapid deployment capability. However, the IAF exercise came at a time of heightened security concerns, as the country is contemplating a potential action in the wake of the recent Pahalgam terror attack which claimed 26 innocent lives on April 22. To ensure security and crowd management during the high-profile event, 250 CCTV cameras were installed on either side of the airstrip. Public representatives, senior officials, dignitaries, and over 500 schoolchildren witnessed the aerial display. The state government intends to dedicate the Ganga Expressway to the nation by November this year. This Expressway will go a long way not only in giving impetus to the economic and geographical growth of the state but also it will be established as a historic step towards the national security, said an official spokesman.
