After retiring as a headmistress, Remabhai S discovered a newfound passion for cultivating dragon fruit within her property. By repurposing her backyard and rooftop into flourishing gardens, she turned a period of personal grief into productive work. The outcomes of her intensive farming approach resulted in notable fruit sales and seedlings, ultimately disproving the belief that ample agricultural land is essential for achieving farming success.

AI sovereignty crucial for cybersecurity, says Gaganyaan astronaut

Gaganyaan astronaut and IAF pilot Prasanth Balakrishnan Nair on Saturday said AI sovereignty is crucial for ensuring national cybersecurity, as the growing use of artificial intelligence is making it increasingly difficult to distinguish between real and fake content. Speaking at the Kerala Cyber Suraksha Summit 2026, organised by Kerala Startup Mission and F9 Infotech, Nair said cybersecurity would have limited value unless the country developed ownership and control over AI technologies. It is very important that we have AI sovereignty, and any amount of cybersecurity will be of no avail unless we own AI, he said. Nair said future wars and industries would involve a whole-of-nation approach, making it increasingly difficult to distinguish between physical and digital boundaries. In the whole-of-nation approach, it's very difficult to say where the physical boundaries end and where the digital boundaries start. And it's going to affect all of us, he said. He stressed the ne

Fatal Kerala trip: College says 8 students had travelled without telling institution; locals raise NH66 safety issue

Thrissur, Sep 5 (IANS) The eight engineering students from Dindigul in Tamil Nadu who were killed in a road accident at Kaipamangalam in Thrissur had undertaken the trip without informing the college authorities, the institution said on Saturday. Local residents, however, raised questions over National Highway 66 safety and the parking of heavy vehicles along the stretch. College officials said they came to know about the accident and the deaths of the students only after Kerala Police contacted them early on Saturday morning. As the institution was closed for a holiday, the students are believed to have organised the trip privately. One of the deceased students, Santhosh, was staying in the college hostel but had gone home before joining the journey, officials said. College representatives and relatives of the victims have since left for Thrissur. The eight young men were killed in the accident on National Highway 66 at Kaipamangalam when the car in which they were travelling crashed into a stationary truck around midnight. Five occupants reportedly died on the spot while the rest died later. The bodies were taken to Thrissur Medical College Hospital for post-mortem examinations before being handed over to their families. The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) maintained that the car was travelling at excessive speed when the accident occurred. It said adequate warning signs and safety arrangements had been put in place along the highway and assured cooperation with the investigation. Local residents, however, raised questions over highway safety and the parking of heavy vehicles along the stretch. They alleged that three trucks had been parked illegally on the road at the time of the accident and that drivers of two vehicles subsequently left the area with their trucks. Residents also pointed to poor lighting, the absence of speed breakers and the positioning of direction boards as factors contributing to accidents. They said vehicles entering the highway from service roads often travel at high speeds, while trucks parked along the carriageway pose a serious danger at night. The Kaipamangalam stretch has witnessed serious accidents in the past and actor and mimicry artiste Kollam Sudhi was killed in a road accident in the area. Minister O.J. Janeesh Kumar said allegations regarding negligent parking of the truck would be investigated. He also criticised the NHAI over safety arrangements during highway construction and said authorities had earlier been asked to provide adequate warnings and safeguards. Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash.

Eight engineering students from TN killed in highway crash in Keralams Thrissur

Thrissur, Sep 05: Eight engineering students from Tamil Nadu's Dindigul were killed when their car rammed into a lorry parked illegally on NH-66 in Thrissur district of central Keralam, police said on Saturday. The accident occurred around 11.40 pm on Friday at Panambikkunnu in Kaipamangalam, when the car, travelling from Guruvayur towards Kodungallur, collided with the rear of the Maharashtra-registered lorry, police said. According to the FIR, the lorry was parked illegally on the right side of the highway near a barricaded stretch where traffic had been diverted as part of ongoing construction work. Police said the car was travelling at high speed and its driver apparently failed to notice the diversion barricade before the collision. Six students died on the spot, while two others were declared dead on arrival at a nearby hospital, police said. The deceased were students of an engineering college in Dindigul and were travelling towards Kodungallur along NH-66. Police said five of the deceasedSurya, Yuvasanjith, Joshua, Murali and Jeevawere from Dindigul, while Santhosh and Prasanna were from Madurai and Vishva was from Salem. The students were pulled out of the mangled car during a rescue operation involving residents, fire and rescue personnel and police. Their bodies were taken to the mortuary at Thrissur Medical College, police said. Kaipamangalam police have registered a case against the lorry driver under Section 105 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for culpable homicide. The driver went into hiding soon after the accident, police said. Police contacted the families of the deceased using student identity cards recovered from the victims. Some of the families were unaware that their children had travelled to Keralam, police said. Relatives told police that Santhosh had recently purchased a car and that the group had planned a trip to Kochi. As the registration of the car had not been completed, they hired a rented vehicle for the trip, they said. Postmortem examinations were conducted at Thrissur Medical College, where relatives arrived to receive the bodies. Hospital authorities arranged ambulances to transport the bodies to their respective native places. Thrissur Rural District Police Chief Mohammad Nadeemuddin said a preliminary investigation indicated that the accident occurred due to the lorry driver's fault. It is definitely a mistake on the part of the lorry driver. An FIR has already been registered. Additionally, regarding the highway authorities and the contractor, we will inspect that as part of the investigation and take strict action, he told reporters. Nadeemuddin said the lorry driver was absconding, but the vehicle owner had been identified, and the driver would be apprehended soon. He said that although a Highway Police patrol unit had been deployed in the area, lorry drivers often parked their vehicles and left the spot. Definitely, parking should not be done here. We will check whether the highway authorities and contractors have installed proper signboards. But as per the preliminary assessment, this is a mistake on the part of the lorry driver, he said. Nadeemuddin said the Kodungallur deputy superintendent of police had been assigned to investigate the case. Legal action has been initiated, and an FIR has already been registered. Given the gravity of the case, we have designated the deputy SP of Kodungallur as the investigating officer. There will be a thorough investigation, and immediate and strict action will be taken against whoever is at fault. Necessary preventive measures will be taken by the police, he said.================
