Security Wing of J&K Police recover lost bag containing cash, jewellery and iPhone, return it to Amarnath Yatri at Baltal

Srinagar, Jul 04: Personnel of the Security Wing of the Jammu and Kashmir Police recovered a lost bag containing cash, jewellery, an Apple iPhone and important documents and returned it to an Amarnath pilgrim after a swift search operation at the Baltal base camp. According to police, the incident occurred on July 3 at around 8 pm when heavy congestion was witnessed at the X-ray screening point in Baltal due to a large influx of pilgrims undertaking the annual Amarnath Yatra. Amid the rush, Ravi Pangwani and his wife, residents of Chhattisgarh, reported that one of their bags had gone missing. The couple informed security personnel that the bag contained an Apple iPhone, cash, jewellery and important documents and requested immediate assistance, saying they would remain at the site until it was traced. Taking the matter seriously, the Security Wing of the J&K Police launched a search operation and sought assistance from the CCTV monitoring team. Footage from surveillance cameras helped identify a person carrying the missing bag away from the frisking point. Police said local tent operators identified the individual as Ghulam Rasool, who runs a tent at the Baltal base camp. Security personnel traced him within about 30 minutes and recovered the bag from his tent, where a group of eight pilgrims led by Arun Pladha from Madhya Pradesh was staying. During the inquiry, it emerged that Rasool had inadvertently picked up the bag along with the luggage of the pilgrims staying in his tent. The missing bag had been placed with the other pilgrims belongings and there was no indication of any deliberate attempt to misappropriate it. The recovered bag was returned to the couple after they verified that all the cash, jewellery, mobile phone and documents were intact. The couple expressed heartfelt gratitude to the Jammu and Kashmir Police, particularly the Security Wing personnel, for their prompt response and professionalism in recovering their belongings, police said.

Vidyadhan Scholarship expands to J&K, SFPI targets 50 students in first batch

In a significant development, the Bengaluru-based Shibulal Family Philanthropic Initiatives (SFPI) has launched its flagship Vidyadhan Scholarship Programme in J&K, with plans to support 50 meritorious students in its first batch. The move is a major push to improve access to higher education for economically disadvantaged students of Jammu and Kashmir, Addressing a press conference in Srinagar on Tuesday, SFPI Principal Consultant Pankaj Tripathi said the scholarship programme, founded in 1999 by Infosys co-founder S.D. Shibulal and Kumari Shibulal, has now been expanded to Jammu and Kashmir as part of its outreach to newer regions. The programme is operational in 27 states and Union Territories. This year we are launching it in Jammu and Kashmir, Nagaland and, if possible, Chhattisgarh, Tripathi said. The Vidyadhan Scholarship Programme provides long-term financial assistance, mentorship, career guidance and internship opportunities to meritorious students from economically weaker families from Class 11 until graduation. Tripathi said students who have secured at least 75 percent marks or 7.5 CGPA in the Class 10 examination are eligible to apply. For students with disabilities, the eligibility has been relaxed to 65 percent marks or 6.5 CGPA. The annual family income should not exceed Rs 2 lakh, certified by the concerned Tehsildar. Selection will be made through an online aptitude test followed by an interview. He said the scholarship support generally continues for five to seven years, enabling students to complete their higher secondary and graduation without financial constraints. Unlike conventional scholarship schemes, Vidyadhan focuses not only on financial assistance but also on mentoring. In the last 27 years, we have learnt that mentorship is equally important. Students receive career guidance, are connected with mentors and later provided internship opportunities, Tripathi said. He said the programme was opened for applications in Jammu and Kashmir in May and around 45 students have already registered. He said the applications will remain open until July 31, 2026 and the entire application process is free of cost. Tripathi urged students, particularly those studying in government schools and living in remote areas, to apply, saying a dedicated helpline has been established to assist applicants facing difficulties with the online registration process. SFPI has also cautioned students that the application process is completely free and that it has not authorised any individual or agency to facilitate selections. Applicants are required to upload a passport-size photograph, Class 10 marksheet, income certificate and a valid email ID while submitting their online application. Tripathi said SFPI has selected 50 students from Jammu and Kashmir for its inaugural batch and plans to induct 50 to 60 fresh students every year, creating a continuous pipeline of beneficiaries from Class 11 through graduation. He said the initiative aims to enable talented students from financially weaker backgrounds to pursue professional careers in medicine, engineering, nursing, civil services and other fields without financial barriers. Headquartered in Bengaluru, SFPI has supported over 18,260 students across the country since the programme's inception. The initiative is currently operational in 27 states and Union Territories through a transparent IT-enabled platform and is supported by corporate partners including UST, Flex India, FANUC India and Intrepid Finance. Students can submit applications online through the Vidyadhan portal or the SDF Vidya mobile application till July 31, 2026.
