Varkala in Unescos tentative heritage list

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Varkala is set for global renown, with its unique natural heritage site making it to the Tentative List of Unescos World Heritage Sites. Famous for its red laterite cliffs overlooking the Arabian Sea, Varkala is the only site from Kerala to feature among the seven new Indian entries under the Natural Heritage category. The announcement was made by the Permanent Delegation of India to Unesco in Paris, marking a major milestone for Kerala. If approved, Varkala will join the ranks of Unesco World Heritage sites. Natural heritage sites from across the country such as the Deccan Traps in Maharashtra, St Marys Island in Karnataka, and the Meghalayan Age Caves are some of the latest additions to the tentative list. The Geological Survey of India (GSI) began groundwork for the recognition in 2012, and Varkala was declared a geo-heritage site in 2014. The site has now been included in the Natural Heritage category, which emphasises its geographic and geological significance, said V Ambili, Deputy Director General of GSI Kerala unit. Unesco team will visit site for evaluation process Preservation and conservation will be of utmost importance as unchecked development could jeopardise its future, said Ambili. The GSI had hoped that Varkala would be considered in the mixed category the Natural and Cultural Heritage category. This is a remarkable achievement. But the chances to get the status would have been high if it was included in the mixed category, said Ambili. Ambili noted that the state government and Varkala municipality have a crucial role to play in securing the Unesco tag for Varkala. Meanwhile, the GSI is set to launch another study of the Varkala cliffs next month to develop methodologies and recommendations for protecting the fast-eroding cliff. The announcement was made by the Permanent Delegation of India to Unesco in Paris, marking a major milestone for Kerala. This is going to be a huge challenge for the government. The GSI will extend all possible support to the conservation and preservation initiatives. We will suggest conservation methodologies and the state government will have to implement them, Ambili said. Getting the Unesco World Heritage Tag is going to be a huge process. A Unesco team will also visit the site as part of the evaluation process. With six other Indian sites competing for recognition, the race for World Heritage status is expected to be intense, said Ambili. With the addition of seven more sites, India now has 69 properties on Unescos tentative list 49 under cultural, three under mixed, and 17 under natural categories. Seven in Unesco list Seven properties from India in the tentative list under the Natural Heritage category Deccan Traps at Panchgani and Mahabaleshwar (Maharashtra) Geological Heritage of St Marys Island Cluster (Udupi, Karnataka) Meghalayan Age Caves (East Khasi Hills, Meghalaya) Naga Hill Ophiolite (Kiphire, Nagaland) Natural Heritage of Erra Matti Dibbalu (Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh) Natural Heritage of Tirumala Hills (Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh).

19 years on the run, Gujarat police arrest disguised fugitive in Karnataka

AHMEDABAD: After 19 years on the run, Gujarats Surat City police have finally nabbed Naresh Kesrimalji Rawal, the prime accused in a brutal 2007 robbery and murder case. Rawal, who had been living under a fake identity in Karnatakas Udupi district, was arrested by the Special Operations Group (SOG) in a dramatic undercover operation. Surat city DCP Rajdeep Singh Nakum said, The SOG team arrested a wanted accused carrying a reward of Rs 45,000. Back in 2007, when he was working as a driver, he and his accomplices killed and robbed a security guard. Our team tracked him down to Udupi, Karnataka, where he was finally arrested. Surats most wanted fugitive, Naresh Kesrimalji Rawal, has finally been captured after evading the law for 19 long years. Rawal, the prime accused in a 2007 robbery and murder case, was arrested by the Surat Special Operations Group (SOG) in Udupi, Karnataka, where he had been hiding under a false identity. The dramatic case traces back to Umra, Surat, where Rawal, then employed as a driver for a family whose sons lived abroad, plotted a deadly robbery. Exploiting his access to the house, Rawal brought in his accomplice Ravi Pandey and tipped off partners-in-crime Vijay Gupta and Santosh Gupta. On the fateful day, Rawal and his gang held the elderly couple hostage and murdered the watchman who tried to resist them. They escaped with gold ornaments and foreign currency worth over 2 lakh, leaving behind terror and bloodshed. Police acted swiftly and arrested Vijay and Santosh Gupta, but Rawal and Pandey vanished without a trace. Rawal, the mastermind, hopped across cities Mumbai, Chennai, Belgaum, Uttara Kannada frequently changing his name and identity to dodge law enforcement. With a Rs 45,000 reward announced for his capture, the trail ran cold until a recent intelligence tip-off revealed that he was living in Udupi. Acting on this lead, SOG officers disguised themselves as South Indian traders, infiltrated the locality, and confirmed his identity. Rawal had assumed the name Nirmal Kesrimalji Korawar, working as a marble labourer and driver while marrying a local woman from the Korawar community to blend in further. After days of surveillance, SOG finally pounced and arrested Rawal, bringing a two-decade-old manhunt to a dramatic close. Police also revealed that Rawal had two earlier housebreaking cases registered at Surat citys Umra police station in 2005, highlighting his deep-rooted criminal history. His associate Ravi Pandey, however, remains at large, keeping the investigation active.

Cops arrest doctor, two others for selling infant in Mangaluru

UDUPI: Udupi police unearthed an illegal child procurement racket involving a couple from Kallugudde in Heruru of Kaup taluk and three others, including a doctor. The case surfaced when the couple attempted to register a four-day-old infant at an anganwadi centre under Poshan Tracker scheme, arousing suspicion. The anganwadi worker alerted the Child Development Project Office (CDPO) staff, who in turn lodged a complaint at Shirva police station on August 21. Police said Prabhavati and her husband Ramesh Moolya, unable to bear children, had procured the girl, born on August 3 at Colaco Hospital, Mangaluru, by falsely claiming her as their own. Probe revealed that the couples relative Priyanka had introduced them to Vijayalakshmi alias Vijaya, who ran a paying guest facility in Mangaluru. A 22 year old woman, a rape survivor with mental health issues who was staying there, had become pregnant after being sexually assaulted by a man known to her. She was brought to the PG during her pregnancy as her mother worked there. The accused Navaneeth Narayan (25) was arrested. Police said that Vijayalakshmi, in collusion with Dr Somesh Solomon, who runs a polyclinic in BC Road, hatched a plan to sell the infant to the Shirva couple. During a follow-up scan at six months, Aadhaar card details of Ramesh and Prabhavati were used, and Prabhavatis Aadhaar card was given for hospital records. The baby was delivered by Caesarean section at Colaco Hospital, and later handed over to the couple. Dr Somesh and Vijayalakshmi were allegedly paid Rs 4.6 lakh for arranging the illegal deal. Investigations revealed that the mother was discharged without proper care. She has since been admitted to hospital with police assistance. Police arrested Dr Somesh, Vijayalakshmi and Navaneeth for their role in the crime. The couple is cooperating with the investigation, while Priyanka has also been questioned. Vijayalakshmi was involved in similar activities earlier. A case was registered under section 81 of the Juvenile Justice Act, 2016, and Sections 143(4), 61, 64 and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023.
