Two more children succumb to mysterious disease in J-K's Rajouri
RAJOURI/JAMMU: Two more children died on Monday after six kids from a family were admitted to hospital due to a mysterious illness at Badhaal village in Rajouri district, officials said. Six children of Mohammad Aslam were taken to the community health centre for a medical check-up on Saturday evening. The children were initially referred to the Government Medical College (GMC) Associated Hospital in Rajouri and later they were shifted to the SMGS Hospital in Jammu where 5-year-old Nabeena breathed her last on Sunday, they said. On Monday, Zahoor (14) and Maroof (8) died during treatment at the hospital. The village under the Kotranka sub-division has been grappling with a mysterious disease that claimed the lives of nine people from two different families since December last year. The latest deaths have taken the toll to 12, officials said. Six children were admitted to the hospital here. One girl died yesterday, while two more children passed away today. Nothing is known about the exact cause of the deaths yet. The health department has failed to identify the disease, Aijaz Ahmed, a close relative of the deceased children, told reporters here. The situation in the village is grim, with fear of the unknown disease gripping its residents, he added. Dr Ashutosh Gupta, principal of GMC Hospital, had said last month that preliminary investigations pointed to a viral infection as the cause of the mysterious deaths. However, he also said that more studies were needed to reach a definitive conclusion. Teams of experts from Pune's National Institute of Virology, PGI Chandigarh, AIIMS Delhi, and the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), Delhi, have visited the village to assist in the investigations. Rajouri Deputy Commissioner Abhishek Sharma, Rajouri-Poonch range Deputy Inspector General Tejinder Singh and Senior Superintendent of Police Gaurav Sikarwar have visited the village to assess the situation. Health teams have also been deputed to ensure necessary medical check-ups, officials said.
Two sisters die after falling from fourth floor in Gurugram
Chandigarh: Two sisters in their early 20s died after falling from the fourth floor of a local businessman's house at Sector 40 in Gurugram, police said on Sunday. While the house owner's family claimed they fell from the balcony on Friday in a desperate bid to escape after a heft attempt, the deceased family has alleged foul play behind the deaths though no formal complaint of murder has been lodged yet, police said. The deceased have been identified as Chandni (23) and Rashmi (21), who hailed from Uttar Pradesh, they said. Chandni, who used to work at the businessman's residence as a domestic help, left the job around a month back, police said. The deceased lived in the servant's quarter of the building. The house owner told police that he and his family members were going to the Khatu Shyam temple in Rajasthan's Sikar district on Friday. However, they returned home after travelling some distance as he had forgotten to take his medicines, police said. On reaching home, they found the main door open before hearing a loud thud. As they rushed to the balcony and looked down, they saw the two sisters lying in a pool of blood below. Both were rushed to a nearby hospital where they were declared brought dead, police said. The house owner's family suspects that the two women broke into the house, as Chandni knew the access code of the electronic lock. Sector 40 police station SHO Lalit Kumar said the bodies have been handed over to the family after autopsy, adding that police are examining CCTV footage from the house.

CBSE cracks down on 'dummy' schools: Affiliation of 21 schools withdrawn, six schools downgraded
New Delhi: In a crackdown on 'dummy' admissions, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Wednesday withdrew affiliation of 21 schools and downgraded six schools from senior secondary to secondary level, officials said. The move comes following a surprise inspection at the schools in Rajasthan and Delhi in September during which several lapses were found, they said. The practice of dummy or non-attending admissions contradicts the core mission of school education, compromising students' foundational growth. To address this issue, we are taking a decisive action to combat the proliferation of dummy schools and send a clear message to all affiliated institutions to resist the lure of accepting dummy or non-attending admissions, CBSE Secretary Himanshu Gupta said. He said the vital observations of the surprise inspection committees regarding the irregularities observed during the inspections were communicated as a report to the respective schools. The replies submitted by the schools were examined in detail by the Board. Based on the inspection findings and supported by videographic evidence, affiliation of 21 schools was withdrawn and six schools were downgraded from senior secondary to secondary level, he added. Of the 21 schools whose affiliation has been withdrawn, 16 are in Delhi while five of them are in Rajasthan's coaching hubs -- Kota and Sikar.
