Delhi Police arrests two cyber criminals for Rs 27 lakh bank fraud in 2021
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 10 (IANS) Two absconding cyber criminals from a Jamtara-based gang were arrested by Intelligence Fusion and Strategic Operations (IFSO) unit of Delhi Police Special Cell, five years after they duped a Delhi resident of Rs 27 lakh using a fake bank website, a Delhi Police official said on Tuesday. Mohd. Mehruddin Ansari (30) and Mohd. Arsad Ansari (29), both residents of district Jamtara, Jharkhand, were arrested on October 30 after they surrendered before a Delhi court, the official said. The police said both the accused are educated up to matriculation and played key roles in designing fake bank websites and facilitating fraudulent customer care operations. The case involved a Delhi resident who fell in the gangs trap and landed on a fake Canara Bank website created by the gang in the guise of customer support, the police said. The bank customer, Bishwajeet Paul, who had a cheque-related query, had used information from the gangs fraudulent website www.customercomplaintregisters.com, designed to resemble the official Canara Bank website using the bank's logo and similar layout, the police said. After the complainant entered his bank account details on the instruction of a fake tele-caller, the gang illegally transferred Rs 27.10 lakh from his account to eight different bank accounts, the police said. During the investigation, eight accused were arrested earlier, including persons involved in arranging and handling beneficiary bank accounts and facilitating the withdrawal and transfer of cheated money. A charge sheet was filed against two accused persons, namely Baharuddin Ansari and Basaruddin Ansari. Six other accused persons were also arrested subsequently and are presently on regular bail. However, two key accused persons, namely Mohd. Mehruddin Ansari and Mohd. Arsad Ansari, remained absconding and were evading arrest despite repeated raids and sustained efforts by the investigating team. Non-Bailable Warrants were also issued against them by the court, the police said.
Digital Desk | Deoghar (Jharkhand), Nov 10 (IANS) Former Congress President late Sitaram Kesri's grandson, Rakesh Kesri, on Tuesday, refuted allegations that senior party leader Sonia Gandhi had a role in his removal as the party chief in 1998. Instead, he said, Sonia Gandhi immediately rushed to Kesri's residence and described him as a great leader. This was stated by Sonia Gandhi in her memoir Belonging: A Journey of Love, where she recalled that in 1998, after being elected party President at the CWC meeting, she straight went to Kesri's residence and touched his feet to seek blessings, leaving the latter surprised. Recounting the emotional meeting, she wrote that Kesri expressed surprise at her unexpected presence, but with moist eyes, placed his hand on her head, and blessed her. Speaking to IANS, Rakesh Kesri also said that Sonia Gandhi made sacrifices for the country as well as for the party. I was only about 25 or 26 years old at that time; I did not know much as I am not a political person, but her dedication to the party and her sacrifice are things we understand from history. It is recorded that she made sacrifices for the party and for the country, he said. Asked if Sonia Gandhi was opposed by others from becoming the Prime Minister at that time, he rebutted the claim, calling it her own sacrifice. There was no one to oppose her. It was her own sacrifice. What difference would opposition have made when all the MPs were with her? She herself probably did not want the position, he said. Further, Rakesh Kesri maintained that his grandfather shared a very good relationship with the Gandhi family and refuted reports that Sonia Gandhi had any role in Sitaram Kesri's removal as Congress chief. We were young then...Kesri ji would always say that it was 'Congress-I', meaning Indira Congress. He never called it his own Congress. The Gandhi family had a very good relationship with him, he said. The incident that happened occurred because of certain people with a particular ideology and mindset, he added. According to Rakesh Kesri, when Sonia Gandhi learnt about Sitaram Kesri's removal as party President, she was among the first to go to his residence on Purana Qila Road. She spoke to him and described him as a great leader. Asked whether the Gandhi family maintained contact with the Kesri family after the former Congress chief's demise in 2000, he said: Yes, they remain in touch with us, and we continue to meet. Last year, on October 24, we even observed Sitaram Kesari's 25th death anniversary. We wrote a letter, and it was immediately accepted (by Congress leadership). We received a phone call in response, and then (Sitaram Kesri's) 25th death anniversary was observed by the party, he said, referring to it as the Congress' mark of respect for Kesri. As soon as we sent the letter, it was accepted, and the entire event was organised by the party at its own expense. What more could we ask for? Rakesh Kesri said. Meanwhile, recounting the emotional meeting in her book, Sonia Gandhi wrote that Sitaram Kesri expressed surprise at her unexpected presence, but with moist eyes, placed his hand on her head and blessed her.

'Dimagi Naxals' next on govt target, Kiren Rijiju tells Rahul Gandhi
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 10 (IANS) Taking aim at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju on Tuesday credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi for eliminating Naxalism and warned the opposition leaders that days of Dimagi Naxals are also numbered. Criticising Rahul Gandhi for trivialising the Union government's success in ending Left-wing extremism, Rijiju on social media platform X said, Rahul ji, thank Modi ji for eliminating the Armed Maoists. Former PM Manmohan Singh ji had famously described Left-Wing Extremism and Naxalism as 'The single biggest internal security threat' to India. Next target is to finish Dimagi Naxals. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress have recently been exchanging verbal blows over the fight against Naxalism and foreign intervention in Indian politics. Interacting with CRPF personnel in Chhattisgarh, PM Modi had said that the elimination of Naxalism is not the final destination and that the country still faces the challenge of countering 'Dimagi Naxals' who have taken control of several organisations. In a veiled attack on Rahul Gandhi and other INDIA bloc parties questioning the integrity of institutions like the Election Commission of India (ECI), the Prime Minister said, Even today, they are inciting people against the country's Constitution and democracy. These 'Dimagi Naxals' have also infiltrated several political parties and different organisations. We must identify them, defeat them and ensure the security of the nation. Later, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi challenged PM Modi for a public debate regarding allegations of being 'Dimagi Naxals' and anti-nationals controlled by foreign entities. Responding to Rahul Gandhi's claims, four-time BJP MP from Jharkhand Nishikant Dubey on Monday questioned the Congress leader's meeting with two Chinese Ministers during a Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage in 2018. In a post on X, Dubey asked Rahul Gandhi to answer his two key questions. Question 1. Mr Rahul Gandhi, when you went on the Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage in 2018, which two Chinese Ministers did you meet? 2. After the 2008 agreement between @INCIndia and the Communist Party of China, which 200 people have you sent to China under the exchange program by 2018? What are their names and addresses? the BJP MP asked.

Stone-pelting mars idol immersion processions in Jharkhand's Palamu, six police personnel injured
Digital Desk | Medininagar (Jharkhand), Nov 10 (IANS) Violent clashes broke out between two groups at two separate locations in Jharkhand's Palamu district late Monday night during the immersion of Lakshmi and Kali idols, leaving more than six police personnel injured in stone-pelting incidents, officials said on Tuesday. Police vehicles were also damaged during the attacks. In one of the incidents, police fired four rounds into the air in self-defence to disperse the mob and control the situation. The first incident took place in Raksaha village under the Rehala police station area, where a dispute erupted between two groups during Lakshmi Puja over the use of a DJ and other issues. After receiving information, a police team from Rehala police station reached the spot and attempted to pacify the two groups. However, the situation escalated when a mob allegedly surrounded the police personnel and attacked them with bricks and stones. Four police personnel sustained injuries in the stone-pelting, while a police vehicle was also damaged. Rehala police station in-charge Gulshan Birua confirmed the incident and said the police had to fire four rounds into the air in self-defence. An FIR has been registered under serious sections of the law. Police are investigating the identities of those involved and the circumstances that led to the clash. Some villagers were also reportedly injured in the incident. The second incident occurred in Sinduria village under Lahalhe Panchayat in Palamu Sadar block, where two groups clashed during the immersion procession of Kali Puja idols. A dispute over an issue between the groups soon escalated into physical violence and stone-pelting. Members of both groups allegedly threw stones at each other, leaving several villagers injured. Police personnel who reached the spot were also injured in the stone-pelting, while the glass of a police vehicle was damaged in the attack. Following the incident, Sadar SDPO Rajesh Yadav and Satbarwa police station in-charge Pradeep Kumar reached the village along with additional police personnel. The Satbarwa police station in-charge said that the situation was brought under control after a dispute broke out between local residents. Police are ascertaining the number of injured persons and investigating the actual cause of the clash. According to police officials, the situation in both areas is now under control. Security has been strengthened, and police personnel have been deployed in the affected villages as a precautionary measure to prevent any further escalation. Further investigation into both incidents is underway.

War on drugs: Agencies widen offensive, use technology to wipe out cannabis, opium cultivation
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 9 (IANS) There are multiple agencies which are burning the midnight oil to put an end to the drug menace across India. Operations led by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and the state police have been busting several narcotics modules in a bid to make India free of drugs by 2029, a vision of the Narendra Modi-led government. An official said that the modus operandi of the agencies has shifted from mere arrests and seizures, and there is an equal emphasis on destroying sites that cultivate illicit cannabis and opium. The NCB has been utilising satellite mapping systems, which have helped the agency in pinpointing high-altitude farms producing these narcotics. Following the go-ahead by the Union Home Ministry, the NCB began using satellite mapping to identify such fields as traffickers would attempt to hide these fields deep inside the mountains so that they could avoid tracking. The use of specialised imaging sensors helps in pinpointing these fields from space, the official said. On November 7, the NCB along with the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) and Arunachal Pradesh Police wiped out 458 acres of illicit cannabis cultivation. This follows the first phase of the programme that was held in October, during which 1.37 lakh kilograms of cannabis plants grown mainly on community lands were destroyed. Data would show that with this latest action, the total area of cannabis destroyed across Arunachal Pradesh in 2026 has surged to more than eight times when compared to 2025. Another official said that during various high-level meetings held between the agencies and top officials of the Home Ministry, it was decided to prepare the Vision Document (2026-2029). This mandates identifying cultivation hotspots and carrying out synchronised crop destruction operations. Similar operations have been carried out in Himachal Pradesh, Odisha and other states in recent months. In Himachal Pradesh, the tracking has focused on rugged and hard-to-reach valleys. Coordinated efforts have led to the clearance of 592 acres of concealed illicit cannabis setups. In Odisha, under the states Mission Zero Cannabis Cultivation framework, 30 acres of operational fields that were hidden deep in the Kandhamal district were destroyed by the agencies. Similar operations have been carried out in Jharkhand, Uttarakhand, Jammu and Kashmir, and Bihar. An Intelligence Bureau official said that these operations follow in the footsteps of what the agencies are doing when it comes to the narcotic cartels. While nabbing big and small players alike, the agencies are focusing on wiping out the supply chain. Seizures and arrests are very much necessary, but not enough in the long run. The agencies have realised that recruiting new operatives is no big deal for the narcotic cartels. With new recruits, the drug trade goes on unabated without bottlenecks. Similar is the case when it comes to seizures. Cartels are able to produce in large numbers and make up for the seizures. However, halting the supply chains, blocking routes, and destroying fields that cultivate drugs goes a long way in battling the menace. The single bust driven by satellite tracking in Arunachal Pradesh wiped out 458 acres of high-yielding cannabis plants. This has translated into a direct loss of 137,000 kilograms of produce before it could come into the market. The multiple agencies working to shut down the narcotics market have a huge task on hand. Cartels will look to innovate, and the trick would be to get the better of them and achieve a drug-free India by 2029, an official said.

Every champion has a story behind a medal. For 16-year-old IS Bridney from Car Nicobar, that story is one of determination, family sacrifices, a coach's belief and an institutional support system that refused to let geographical barriers limit her dreams. At the 78th senior, 55th junior and 41st sub-junior nationals track cycling championships, held at Khelgaon, Ranchi, Jharkhand, on November 3, 2026, Bridney achieved a remarkable milestone. Competing in the sub-junior girls' 500m Individual Time Trial, she clocked 37.479 seconds, breaking the previous record of 38.700 seconds, held by Trisha Paul, who has medalled at the Asian Cup and Asian Track Cycling Championships, as per a press release. For a teenager who began her sporting journey without access to a cycling velodrome or competition-standard facilities, the gold-winning effort with a national record represents much more than a medal. It is the culmination of years of hard work and perseverance. I was in good shape during my tr...
