Centre comes to rescue of chilli ryots with market intervention
NEW DELHI: Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has given nod for the Market Intervention Scheme (MIS) to bail out the red chilli farmers of Andhra Pradesh in the wake of slump in market prices. The Union Minister has given the go-ahead to procure and compensate the chilli farmers to prevent them from resorting to distress sale. During a meeting with representatives of the AP government on the plight of chilli farmers on Friday, Chouhan directed the Indian Council of Agriculture Research (ICAR) to assess the production cost of chilli farmers, and submit a report to the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare (MAFW). Based on the report, the Centre will compensate the farmers up to 25% of the intervened price under the MIS. He also asked the officials to prepare a proposal to increase the 25% limit under the MIS. The chilli prices have crashed in the past few months, forcing the farmers to resort to distress sale. Indias largest chilli market, Guntur Mirchi Yard, also known as Chilli Capital of India, has witnessed prices in the range of Rs 11,000 to Rs 13,500 per quintal as against over Rs 20,000 in 2023-24. The government will train chilli farmers how to harvest export quality chilli under the Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH). How to pluck chilli from the plant is an art that farmers need to be trained to produce export quality produce, he said. The Agriculture Ministry has directed the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) to find new avenues to export chilli. Exports have declined due to weak international demand this season. Erratic weather in the chilli-producing region has impacted the crop. India exports chilli to countries like China, Malaysia and Bangladesh. Long dry spells and the extension of monsoon rainfall in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh has impacted the quality of chilli crop. Moreover, erratic weather has also induced pest infestations, such as Nalla Tamara (black thrips), which has severely impacted the chilli crop yield, and increased the farmers investment. Union Civil Aviation Minister Kinjarapu Rammohan Naidu, Devesh Chaturvedi, Secretary, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, and senior officials from the AP government attended the meeting. On Thursday, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu interacted with Chouhan over the chilli farmers concerns, and procurement-related issues, through a video conference.

WPL 2025: How Sanskriti Gupta Went From Being Mumbai Indians Fan To Playing For Franchise
How Sanskriti Gupta: Sanskriti Guptas confidence in the Mumbai Indians picking her in last years WPL auction in Bengaluru is evident in her clear and assured words. Sanskriti was so certain shed join MI that she only attended the sides trials happening before the auction. I was ready in my mind that maybe MI might take me in the auction this time, as I gave only their trials. When MI eventually picked me (for INR 10 lakh), everyone was very happy, including my family back home. The head coach (Charlotte Edwards) messaged me saying, welcome to the family. Devieka (Palshikaar, batting coach) maam also texted me and said, Its good you are here; we will win this time, recalls Sanskriti, now an MI player in WPL 2025, in an exclusive conversation with IANS. Sanskritis intense fandom for MI largely stems from their 2019 IPL final victory, where Lasith Malinga trapped Shardul Thakur lbw on the final ball of the match to help the team clinch their fourth title. During the recently concluded Vadodara leg of WPL 2025, Sanskritis transition from MI supporter to player was complete after playing in the sides season opener against Delhi Capitals and being in the team for their victory over Gujarat Giants. Sanskriti, 20, is yet to fully showcase her all-round skills in the WPL - making only two runs in one innings and yet to get a go with her off-spin bowling, which was instrumental in Madhya Pradeshs Senior Womens One-Day Trophy win. But Sanskriti still made some impact via fielding - taking two catches and effecting a run-out. Although the WPL 2025 season is still early, Sanskriti is expected to make significant contributions to the matches in Bengaluru, Lucknow, and Mumbai. Right now, shes delighted at the love and support received in the camp MI, with her family keen to see her play in future matches. It has been a very good experience. When I spoke to the coaches before my first game, everyone told me that I just have to do well. I told my family back home as well about making my debut and they were very happy. They are following me a lot in the WPL. When Saturdays game was on, everyone was sitting in front of the TV and waiting for me to play. In domestic circuit, there is a lot of freedom, but they do tell you how to do something in a certain way. Here, you just have to stay the way you are. You are good, thats why you have been selected, so thats it. The coaches in MI set-up have been excellent; everyone is very supportive and have been really good towards me, she added. Sanskriti hails from Sidhi, a district an hour and 20 mins away from Rewa in Madhya Pradesh, and started playing cricket as a sixth grader. Sanskriti discovered a whole new world through cricket, especially womens cricket, which shed never known before. Encouragement to take up the sport came in heaps from her family - her father used to play football, while dabbling in cricket and basketball in his younger days. Her uncles, both older and younger, also played various sports, which meant they knew the challenges of making a career out of it. When I was 17-18, they used to ask me when I would play at the higher level and were concerned that despite playing for a long time, why nothing had materialised. But now they support me a lot and want me to play as many matches quickly, recalls Sanskriti. To further her cricket career, Sanskriti moved from Sidhi to Shahdol after 1.5 years of training, where better facilities allowed her to compete in divisional matches. Three years later, Sanskritis life took a turn when the government-funded Womens Cricket Academy in Shivpuri opened in January 2022 and she joined it instantly. I used to live in Shahdol, who I represented in the division matches, by renting a room there for three years. After that, when the government opened the academy, I directly shifted there. I didnt have an option to think and shifted directly to Shivpuri, where I found a coach named Arun Singh there. Sanskritis impressive fielding in her two WPL matches is a direct result of the strong emphasis on fielding skills during her formative years, which also contributed to her initial selection for the Madhya Pradesh senior womens team. When I used to live in Sidhi, I used to do a lot of fielding at the academy there. Its one of the big reasons why I have been good at fielding. When I shifted to Shahdol, I started batting and bowling gradually and improved those skills by practising a lot. Initially, I started by being a pacer. Then I became an off spinner after a while. I was already good at batting. Gradually, I improved in all aspects of the game. Being under Singh at the academy in Shivpuri also helped Sanskriti to evolve more as an all-rounder. I am very happy that his hard work on me is paying off. I havent got a coach like him yet. Like if a youngster gets a coach like him soon, she will go very far in their playing career. One gets to learn a lot from him. He picks the right things for you to develop as cricketers in all skillsets and is aware of what a player requires. I have a good bonding with him, as one can actually talk to him freely. Playing for Madhya Pradeshs U-16 team for three years, Sanskriti found the competition tough, and realisation struck of her needing more hardwork to play at a higher level. There, I got an idea about the higher level of womens cricket. From there, I got the realisation that no matter what happens, I have to keep playing cricket. While she loved hitting sixes over long-on and bowling off-breaks to castle right-handed batsmen, Sanskriti reflects on her three frustrating years with the U19 team, where she didnt achieve any significant progress. However, the Madhya Pradesh system refused to let her go, and she ultimately found a way to succeed. The MP team were supporting me a lot, but still, I was not able to perform. Despite that, they didnt let go of me and kept supporting. Then in U23, my performances started to come out. In my last year of U19, I scored a century and later hit 39 off 13 balls. Following this, Sanskriti played a key role in Madhya Pradeshs three successive victories in the U19, U23, and Senior Womens categories. My performances were good in all of them. I bowled the last over in U23 final when Delhi needed eight runs off six balls, and we won the match from there. Everyones support was good in recent one-day championship win. All the teammates put in a lot of effort, as we were waiting to win the seniors trophy and were working hard to get it for a long time. When the result came in front of us, it turned out to be a very good one. Though Sanskriti went wicketless in the Senior Womens One Day Trophy final this season, she had picked 16 wickets in Madhya Pradeshs run to winning trophy for the first time. Featuring in the same playing eleven alongside her was pacer Kranti Goud, who took a four-fer in the final and is now with UP Warriorz in the WPL. It also made Sanskriti and Kranti the second and third players from Madhya Pradesh to feature in the WPL after India all-rounder Pooja Vastrakar, whos currently out of action due to an injury. Its a very proud thing that the youngsters are coming from Madhya Pradesh into the WPL. Being in WPL is a good opportunity for us as we the younger players will get more experience at the senior level in terms of matches and conditions on offer. The earlier opportunities are grabbed, it will help us in the future. Its a very proud thing that as young players, we get a chance to prove ourselves on such a platform and showcase that we have the talent to do good in cricket, added Sanskriti. Sanskriti has forged strong bonds with her MI teammates, including fellow spin all-rounders Amandeep Kaur, Jintimani Kalita, and G Kamalini, and chatted with Amanjot Kaur and Sajana Sajeevan. More than anything, shes thrilled to be playing alongside Harmanpreet Kaur in WPL 2025. I dont have a lot of inspirations; its just like their some of their things. I like Harman dis fielding and attitude on the ground. So, very excited to be in this team and play alongside her. I feel good being around her as she is the Indian team skipper and is also the captain here. Sanskritis life has been an incredible journey filled with valuable lessons in going from a small town in Sidhi to playing for her beloved Mumbai Indians in the WPL. Should everything go to plan, she may become a WPL winner if MI lifts the trophy at the Brabourne Stadium on March 15, if the absolute clarity in her words are to go by. I dont have a lot of inspirations; its just like their some of their things. I like Harman dis fielding and attitude on the ground. So, very excited to be in this team and play alongside her. I feel good being around her as she is the Indian team skipper and is also the captain here. Also Read: Highest tax paying cricketers Article Source: IANS

I Often Doubted Whether I'd Be Able To Play Again: Shami Reveals Comeback Struggles After Injury
Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy: India fast bowler Mohammed Shami has revealed how tough his comeback to international cricket has been after suffering an ankle injury in 2023 and said there were times when he thought he would never get another opportunity to play again for the country. Shami had injured his ankle during the ODI World Cup in 2023, which kept him out of action for more than a year. He had not appeared for the nation since India's loss against Australia in the 2023 ODI World Cup final, where the pacer was the leading wicket-taker in the tournament. Shami made a successful comeback to professional cricket through Bengal's fifth-round match in the Ranji Trophy against Madhya Pradesh at Indore, where he took seven wickets in his team's win. He also led the Bengal bowling attack in the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy, picking up nine wickets in 11 games at an economy rate of 7.85, with a best of 3-21 against Hyderabad. However, the pacer missed the entire five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy series as the injury had flared up again. But, the 34-year-old did make a successful return when featuring in four white-ball fixtures for India against England across the last month. He is now set to push his comeback even further when he turns out for the nation in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 opener against Bangladesh in Dubai on Thursday. From being in great form during the World Cup to suddenly finding myself on the operating table from that form to being injured was really tough. My first question to the doctor was 'how many days until I can be back on the field'. He said my priority is to get you to walk, then jog and then run' and thinking about playing competitive cricket is still a distant goal, Shami told the ICC. I always wondered when I would be able to put my feet on the ground again someone who is used to running on the field constantly was now in crutches. A lot of thoughts used to run through my mind. Will I be able to do it again? Will I be able to walk without a limp? For the first two months, I often doubted whether I would be able to play again as an injury like this followed by a 14-month break can pull you down, he said. Shami added that the desire to once again represent India on the big stage gave him the strength to push through the pain barrier. After 60 days when they asked me to put my feet on the ground, you wont believe me, but I have ever been more scared to put my foot on the ground. It felt like I was starting over, like a toddler learning how to walk and I was worried about any complications. Courage and passion to play for the country are the biggest motivators and the desire to wear the India badge on my chest kept me going. You endure the pain and take it one step at a time without complaints or bitterness. The passion for representing my country has brought me this far. It was tough, and there was pain, but with resilience and patience I made it through, Shami said. The ace paver further said he will continue to represent India for as long as his body allows. You endure the pain and take it one step at a time without complaints or bitterness. The passion for representing my country has brought me this far.

MP declares Vicky Kaushal-starrer 'Chhaava' tax-free on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti
BHOPAL: Vicky Kaushal-starrer Hindi movie Chhaava has been declared tax free in BJP-ruled Madhya Pradesh. The announcement was made by the states chief minister Dr Mohan Yadav, while addressing a gathering after unveiling the state archery academy in Jabalpur on Wednesday evening. The announcement assumed particular significance as it coincided with Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti. On the occasion of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharajs birth anniversary, Im declaring that Hindi film Chhaava (based on his son Sambhaji Maharajs life) tax free in MP. The movie is being declared tax free to enable one and all to watch the movie, which depicts various aspects of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharajs son Sambhaji Maharajs life, Yadav said. The development happened three months after the same MP CM had in November 2025,declared the Vikrant Massey and Raashii Khanna-starrer movie, The Sabarmati Report tax free in the state. Based on the life of Sambhaji, the second ruler of the Maratha Empire, the movie, Chhaava (which also stars Rashmika Mandanna and Akshaye Khanna) is the third movie in 11 months to have been declared tax-free by the MP CM Dr Mohan Yadav. Before declaring The Sabarmati Report tax-free in November 2024, the same CM had in March 2024 declared Yami Gautam-starrer Article 370 as tax free in the central Indian state. Article 370 focused on the rise of terrorism in Kashmir and the governments fight against it, including the abrogation of Article 370 by the Narendra Modi government on August 5, 2019, ending the special status given toJammu and Kashmir. The government, however, didnt give a similar tax benefit to Pankaj Tripathi-starrer movie, Mai Atal Hoon , which was a biopic on former PM and BJP patriarch Atal Bihari Vajpayee. Importantly Vajpayees Indore-based niece Mala Tiwari had reportedlywritten to PM Narendra Modi in January, to make themovie Mai Atal Hoon taxfreefor infusing the spirit of nationalism among youths. Before it, in May 2023, then CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan had declared Hindi movie, The Kerala Story tax-free and also watched the movie with the films cast and crew in Bhopal. In June 2022, Chouhan had declared Akshay Kumar-starrer Samrat Prithviraj as tax-free, just two months after granting similar benefits to Anupam Kher-starrer, The Kashmir Files . But its not just BJP regimes which have declared movies tax-free in MP, as even the 15-months-old Kamal Nath-led Congress regime, had declared Deepika Padukone-starrer Chhapaak (based on the real-life struggle of an acid attack survivor) and Taapsee Pannu-starrer Thappad (which dealt with issue of domestic violence) tax free in the state.

After death penalty being cancelled in POCSO case, man rapes 11-year-old girl in MP
BHOPAL: A serial rapist acquitted by the Madhya Pradesh High Court in 2018 four years after receiving a death sentence for abducting and raping an eight-year-old school girl has now been accused of raping an 11-year-old hearing- and speech-impaired, mentally challenged girl in Rajgarh district on the intervening night of February 1 and 2. The orphan girl, who was severely malnourished as well, died on February 7 at a government hospital in Bhopal after battling for life for four days. A fortnight after the ghastly incident of the rape came to light, multiple police teams probing the case across the country finally managed to track and arrest the accused. He was identified as 41-year-old Ramesh Singh, a native of western MPs Shajapur district, and he was habitual of abducting and raping minors. On the night of February 1, the 11-year-old disabled girl was abducted from her hut in Narsinghgarh town of Rajgarh district and found the next day in the adjoining bushes bleeding from the private parts. She was admitted at the government hospital in Bhopal, but despite all efforts by doctors, the severely malnourished girl breathed last on February 7 night. Taking the case on top priority, we formed 16 dedicated teams and zeroed upon around 382 people, based on grabs retrieved from 136 CCTV cameras installed at 46 locations. Finally, the probe focused on 15-20 suspects and at last the actual accused, 41-year-old Ramesh Singh, Rajgarh district police superintendent Aditya Mishra told TNIE on Wednesday. The search for Singh took the Rajgarh police teams from MP to Rajasthan and UP. After committing the crime in Narsinghgarh (Rajgarh district), Singh fled to Prayagraj via Rajasthan and stayed at the ongoing Mahakumbh for a few days. He changed his clothes thereby stealing the clothes of those bathing at one of the ghats. His location was tracked when he borrowed the cell phone of a pilgrim from Karnataka to call his wife in MP. Subsequently, multiple teams zeroed in upon 18-20 railway stations between Prayagraj and Shajapur in MP. Finally, the police managed to track and nab him from the Rajasthan border in Rajgarh district only on February 18, a senior MP police officer said. According to cops, while interrogating Singh, he has no repentance for the crime he committed. He raped her multiple times and tried to choke her to death. With the girl not resisting the bid, he thought she was dead and left her back. He wanted to kill her, as in 2014, leaving the eight-year-old girl alive after rape, had led to his arrest and subsequent death penalty. As per the Rajgarh district SP Aditya Mishra, Realising the seriousness of the case, a special investigation team (SIT) had already been constituted in the matter, whose members are grilling him (Singh) one by one. Taking cognizance of his three previous crimes 2003, 2014 and 2025, his modus operandi seems to be targeting minors. So well create his DNA profile and get it generated at the forensic science lab (FSL). Well then get that profile cross-matched with evidence in any other unsolved rape cases anywhere else in the country, to find out whether he has committed similar crimes elsewhere or not. Earlier cases Singh hails from a village in the Avantipura Badodia area of Shajpur district, Ramesh was arrested in 2003 for raping a five-year-old girl in Mubarikpur village. A local court sentenced him to ten years in prison after holding him guilty for the crime. After serving the ten-year jail term, he was released in 2013. Just a year later, he abducted an eight-year-old girl from outside a school in Ashtha area of central MPs Sehore district and raped her. A year later in 2014, an additional district judge (ADJ) court, while convicting him for the heinous crime, awarded the death penalty. Four years later, the Madhya Pradesh High Court, overturned the lower courts verdict on technical grounds, stating that as the alleged rape survivors father was present during the identification parade, it could have influenced the results.

Two bomb threats in one day trigger evacuations, extensive searches in Madhya Pradesh
BHOPAL: Two bomb threats in one day, kept the Madhya Pradesh police and Railway Protection Force (RPF) personnel on their toes in the central Indian state on Tuesday. While the Mumbai-bound Ballia-Lokmanya Tilak Terminus (LTT) Kamayani Express was checked for around two hours by the bomb detection and disposal squad (BDDS) personnel of the state police at Bina railway station of Sagar district, around 250 km away in Jabalpur district, another bomb scare kept the BDDS team of local police busy at a prominent English medium private school in Ranjhi area. In Bina town of Sagar district of Bundelkhand region, the long-distance Kamayani Express train, which was already running late by around 4-5 hours was stopped and searched thoroughly for the presence of any explosive, following a call alerting about a bomb on the train, which finally turned out to be a hoax call. According to a senior police officer in Sagar district, the search which started at around noon, continued for over two hours, after which the train left for its further journey. Already the stations are currently chock-a-block with heavy crowds going towards and returning from the Prayagraj Mahakumbh. It cannot be ruled out that the call might have been made possibly with the intention to spread panic, which may have led to some untoward incident in the crowd on the train and at the station. Were conducting detailed and in-depth investigations in the matter, a senior police officer in Sagar district told TNIE. Around 250 km away in Jabalpur district, students were evacuated from a prominent English medium private school in the Ranjhi area, following an e-mail to the school, alerting them about a bomb in the school campus. The local polices BDDS team was pressed into action, but after extensive search, nothing incriminating was found to suggest the presence of any explosive/bomb in the sprawling school campus. Ongoing investigations suggest that the mail informing about a bomb in the school was sent from Southern India and a phone number mentioned in that mail too pertained to someone based around Karnataka. Were trying to get deeper into the case and track the real culprit and the actual intention behind the mail, Jabalpur district police superintendent Sampat Upadhyaya told TNIE. Importantly, just a few days back, similar mails were received in MPs most populated city Indore, about the presence of bombs in the campuses of two prominent private schools, after which students of both schools were evacuated. Even in Indore, the mails informing about the presence of bombs were made from Southern India, just like the mail sent to the private school in Jabalpur district on Tuesday.

The big bridge event: Playing their cards right with big picture in mind
CHENNAI: A deck of cards is neatly arranged at the centre of a red velvety table. A rectangular score box is placed beside the cards. Four participants occupy the table. As the 15-minute timer starts, cards are shuffled, moves are made, and players focus on their opponent's game, indulging in mind calculations. Every player makes prudent bids, trying to outwit their opponent while being on the same page with their partner. The gentle rustle of cards fills the atrium of Express Avenue Mall here and the score box starts to fill with numbers as the game progresses. This intense concentration and strategic thinking atmosphere unfolded during the maiden national-level ranking EA Bridge event. Conducted from February 9 to 16, the tournament was organised and sponsored by EA Bridge under the aegis of the Bridge Federation of India, in association with the Tamil Nadu Bridge Association. This initiative aims to elevate bridge on a national and global scale, fostering awareness and promoting this mind sport. Bridge and chess are the only two mind games that the Olympics recognises. Bridge is a game where you and your partner are cooperating, collaborating to try and defeat the opponent. And it takes about thirty hours of an introductory course to learn the game, said Sunil Verghese, vice president of Tamil Nadu Bridge Association (TNBA). While the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) and the Ministry of Sports recognise bridge as a sport, the states also are accorded due recognition for the game in the early 2000s. Now the TNBA has acquired a 1,000 sq ft accommodation for the sport in the Nehru Indoor Stadium to conduct coaching sessions, seminars, and workshops. When governments step in and support the game, it will no longer be just a game for the elite. Once the government puts in money, people will start playing the sport and get benefited, added Sunil. Talking about the advantages of the game, the treasurer of Bridge Federation of India (BFI), Sathish Kumar said, It is a game of management involving communication, memory and critical thinking in individuals. Scientifically, it provokes the dorsolateral cortex in the brain and postpones Alzheimer's and Dementia. Moreover, bridge has also been a means of employment for individuals. Vidya Patel and Kalpana Gujral, who hail from Raibidpura village in Madhya Pradesh, are employees of the Income Tax department under sports quota. The duo was in the city and won the EA Bridge National Women Championship, which was held on February 10. To come out of my village was possible because of bridge. Since 2017, Kalpana and I, as a team, have represented India at various national and international competitions, revealed Vidya. Vidya also stressed on the importance of partnership. Partnership is important in the game not only because the game requires a partner, but also because it creates a bond. Kalpana and I have travelled to eight countries and we have become more than just game partners now. Kalpana being my partner also improves women's participation in the game. That is what we are representing here at the tournament and spreading the message Kavita ma'am dreams of. Kavita Singhania, managing director of Express Infrastructure Pvt Ltd and Express Avenue Mall, is the brain behind EA Bridge. She is keen to support, encourage, and create opportunities for women in open bridge games. She holds games for women every month and also sessions to teach them the game, said Kalpana. In the Vijya Jajoo Memorial National Mixed Championship, which was held on February 11 and 12, Sandeep N Karmarkar and Marianne Karmarkar finished atop standings. Arvind Vaidya and Shubham Acharya claimed the top prize in the Tolani Open National Master Pairs category, which was held on February 15 and 16. Sarla Fibers, meanwhile, claimed the Tolani Open National Masters. NR Kribakar Moorthy, World Bridge Federation Committee member, Sridhar A, TNBA president, Prasad Keni, president of Bridge Federation of India, distributed the awards. They also participated in various competitions.

Domestic Violence Act: SC slams states, UTs for not filing status reports
NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Tuesday pulled up several states and union territories for not filing status reports over the implementation of the domestic violence law while allowing them four more weeks subject to the payment of Rs 5,000 as costs. A bench of Justices B V Nagarathna and Prasanna B Varale took note when the petitioner's counsel said several states and UTs did not file their status reports despite the top court's direction. The counsel for the respective states have sought for some more time to file status reports. Hence, four more weeks are granted to file status reports subject to payment of cost of Rs 5,000 to the Supreme Court mediation centre, the bench said. The bench noted Andhra Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Meghalaya, Odisha, Telangana, West Bengal and Assam were among the defaulters. UTs of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu, Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh and Lakshadweep also did not file the status reports, it was further informed. Pay cost of Rs 5,000 and file it. If you don't file it, next time it will double, said Justice Nagarathna. The bench posted the matter on March 25. In its December 2 2024 order, the apex court said the status report had to be filed with regard to implementation of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. On January 17, the top court extended the time for filing of the status reports by the states and UTs till February 14. While hearing the matter in November last year, the apex court said the prayers in the petition were essentially for the implementation of the 2005 law. While issuing notices, the top court said the obligation for the implementation of the law not only rested with the Centre but also with the respective state governments. The plea sought directions to the authorities for the proper enforcement and implementation of the provisions of the 2005 Act aside from directions for adequate appointments, notification and establishment of protection officers, service providers and shelter homes as directed under the Act. The plea also sought initiation and strict implementation of awareness campaigns related to crime against women.

Illegal coal mining accident in Madhya Pradeshs Shahdol district leaves five daughters orphaned
BHOPAL: Illegal coal mining in Madhya Pradesh's Shahdol district claimed the lives of a couple, leaving their five daughters, aged between 2 and 18 years, to fend for themselves. The incident happened near the banks of Son river, around 2 km from the Dhangavan village under Burhar police station area on Sunday late evening, when five labourers were digging soil in search of coal. The mud mound created by the digging suddenly collapsed on the five labourers. While three of them escaped unhurt, two others identified as Omkar Yadav (40) and his wife Parvati Yadav (36) were buried alive. The two bodies were extricated after a couple of hours with the help of JCB machines near the accident site. While confirming the incident, the Shahdol district police superintendent Ramji Shrivastava said, Investigations are underway to ascertain who were those at whose behest the illegal mining was being carried in search of coal close to the Son river. Based on the investigation findings, a case will be registered against those found behind the illegal mining for coal. The death of the couple has made their five daughters, aged between two years and 18 years, parentless. Just six months back, the couple had lost their lone son Ravindra Yadav (7) due to snake bite. According to informed sources, coal is abundantly available in the area (at some places, digging of soil up to even 10-12 fts, easily leads to coal). The coal mining mafia is active in around 100 square kms close to the Son river in Burhar, Amlai, Jaitpur and Dhanpuri in Shahdol district and Keshwahi area of adjoining Anuppur district of eastern MP. As the soil is crumbly, the labourers and villagers find it easy to dig. The coal mafia then engages villagers as labourers for digging coal in villages close to the river Son in Shahdol as well as the neighbouring Anuppur district. Digging of the soil in areas close to river Son often leads to coal at just 10-12 fts which fetches easy money of Rs 200 per bag of coal in the market, which is why such digging is prevalent, Shrivastava said. Along with the district collector Dr Kedar Singh, I visited the spot of the mishap on Sunday evening. It has been decided to form a task force to act against the illegal mining prevalent in the large area close to the river Son, he added. Targeting the state government on the incident, the state Congress president Jitu Patwari, posted on social media platform X, A couple died due to the collapse of an illegal coal mine in Burhar area Shahdol. BJPs protection is emboldening the mafia in the area! The government is also giving a free hand to organized crime! !

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Monday expressed displeasure over the filing of several fresh pleas in a case related to validity of the Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act, 1991 which mandates the religious character of a place to be maintained as it existed on August 15, 1947. A bench comprising Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Sanjay Kumar also indicated that it may not take up the pending scheduled petitions, heard earlier by a three-judge bench, during the day as it was sitting in a combination of two judges. We might not be able to take it up, the CJI said when senior advocate Indira Jaising, appearing for a litigant, mentioned a fresh plea for hearing during the day. At the outset of the day's proceedings, the senior advocate mentioned the matter. There is a limit to which petitions can be filed. So many IAs (interim applications) have been filed...we might not be able to take it up, the CJI said, adding that a date may be given in March. The top court, through its December 12, 2024 order, effectively stalled proceedings in about 18 lawsuits filed by various Hindu parties seeking survey to ascertain the 'original religious character' of 10 mosques, including Gyanvapi at Varanasi, Shahi Idgah Masjid at Mathura and Shahi Jama Masjid at Sambhal where five Muslim youth including a minor was killed in alleged police firing during a court-ordered survey. It had then listed all the petitions for an effective hearing on February 17. Post December 12, several petitions have been filed, including by AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, Samajwadi Party leader and Kairana MP Iqra Choudhary and the Congress Party seeking effective implementation of the 1991 law. Choudhary, the Lok Sabha MP from UP's Kairana, on February 14 sought to curb the increasing trend of legal actions targeting mosques and dargahs, which he submitted threaten communal harmony and the secular fabric of the country. The top court previously agreed to examine a separate plea of Owaisi with a similar prayer. The Akhil Bhartiya Sant Samiti, a Hindu outfit, had moved the top court seeking to intervene in cases filed against the validity of provisions of the 1991 law. Earlier, the bench was hearing about six petitions, including the lead one filed by lawyer Ashwini Upadhyay, challenging various provisions of the 1991 law. The law prohibits conversion of any place of worship and provides for the maintenance of the religious character of any place of worship as it existed on August 15, 1947. 'Places of Worship Act 1991 essential to safeguard secularism in India': INC seeking direction to be intervenor However, the dispute relating to Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid at Ayodhya was kept out of its purview. Muslim bodies like Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind seek strict implementation of the 1991 law to maintain communal harmony and to preserve the present status of mosques, sought to be reclaimed by Hindus claiming that they were temples before invaders razed them. On the other hand, petitioners like Updhyay have sought setting aside of Sections 2, 3 and 4 of the Act. Among the reasons was also the contention that these provisions took away the right of judicial remedy to reclaim a place of worship of any person or a religious group. Ultimately, we will have to hear the arguments, the bench had said, observing the primary issue was with regard to Section 3 and 4 of the 1991 law. While Section 3 deals with the bar of conversion of places of worship, Section 4 pertains to declarations as to the religious character of certain places of worship and bar of jurisdiction of courts, etc. The Gyanvapi Mosque management committee, in its intervention plea, opposed several pending petitions that challenge the constitutional validity of the 1991 law. The mosque committee listed a series of contentious claims made over the years concerning various mosques and dargahs (shrines), including the Shahi Idgah Masjid in Mathura, the Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque near Delhi's Qutub Minar, the Kamal Maula Mosque in Madhya Pradesh, and others. It, therefore, said the petitions challenging the Act were filed with mischievous intent to facilitate lawsuits against these religious sites, which the 1991 Act currently protected.

New Delhi stampede: Rail Bhavan gets into huddle
NEW DELHI: Under pressure from various quarters, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on Sunday held a series of meeting at the Rail Bhavan to take stock of the safety measures during heavy passenger rush. Vaishnaw also met and briefed Home Minister Amit Shah about the stampede at the New Delhi railway station. Railways announced the names of two high administrative group officials, who will be part of the inquiry committee constituted to probe the stampede at the New Delhi Railway station. Narsingh Deo, Principal Chief Commercial Manager, Northern Railway, and Pankaj Gangwar, Principal Chief Security Commissioner, Northern Railway, are the members of the committee, the railways said. Railways directed all zones to remain on maximum alert, ensuring the safety of passengers during seasons of heavy footfall, especially in stations dealing with high numbers of passengers traveling to the Maha Kumbh. Sources said nearly 60%-70% of those attending the Kumbh are taking trains. The railway stations across Uttar Pradesh have been put on high alert following massive convergence of devotees reaching Prayagraj for holy dip at Sangam. Prayagraj and its neighbouring districts, including Ayodhya, Gonda, Varanasi, Fatehpur, Gorakhpur and Lucknow experienced huge crowd on railway stations. ADG, Railways, Prakash D has issued directives to the authorities concerned to ensure deployment of GRP personnel on all stations across the state. Heightened alert has been sounded on railway stations across Madhya Pradesh, with security being beefed, particularly at the Katni and Satna stations of the West Central Railway (WCR). There is a huge rush of devotees bound to Maha Kumbh. The rush is at its peak in Katni and Satna, the two stations on the route of long-distance trains coming from central, western and southern India to Prayagraj, police said. In Satna, in-charge IG of Rewa Saket Pandey along with administrative, health and railway officials, held a meeting on Sunday afternoon and decided to raise the number of GRP and RPF jawans up to four times at key stations. All trains towards Prayagraj from Jharkhand are overcrowded, with even people with valid reservation tickets finding it hard to board trains. According to a passenger from Hazaribagh, Premchand Prasad, who boarded the train from Koderma, trains are running without ticket collectors and RPF jawans as even they are not able to board the trains. The East Central Railway has bolstered safety measures as most passengers from Bihar are bound for Prayagraj.

Red alert sounded as poachers on prowl in Madhya Pradesh
BHOPAL: An organised gang of tiger poachers, which also includes women and children, could have poached 10-11 tigers in Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh over the last three months. It is believed that the arrest of these gang members last month in Maharashtra prompted the central governments Wildlife Crime Control Bureau to issue a nationwide alert. An ongoing probe by multiple agencies into tiger poaching following the arrests of key operatives of the gang comprising the tribal Pardhi community in Chandrapur (Maharashtra) in January, has revealed a strong possibility of 10-11 tigers having been poached by the gang in the three adjoining states over the last three-four months, a member of the probe team said. While the notorious tiger poacher Ajit Rajgond alias Ajit Pardhi, his mother, wife and key associates were arrested in Chandrapur on January 25, his equally notorious brother Keru and aides escaped. Just a fortnight after the arrests of Ajit and key associates, four more members of his gang were nabbed in a joint operation by the state Tiger Strike Force of the MP forest department and the special task force (STF) of MP police, from their camp in Dindori district of their native eastern MP. We arrested four persons from the spot, including two close relatives of Ajit (both aged between 16 and 18 years) and two other male gang members, one aged 19 and the other being 22 years old. Were searching for other members of the large gang, particularly his brothers and sons, who are on the run, a probe team member said. The gang has been involved in multiple criminal activities, including poaching of tigers and other wild animals (whose remains fetch big money in international markets), narcotics smuggling, looting and killings of humans, as well as selling fake animal parts (like colouring goat skin as tiger skin). The members keep moving from one state to another, including parts of their native MP, adjoining Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Odisha, UP, Punjab, Bihar, West Bengal and the North East. They have key contacts in the North East, especially Nagaland, which are helping the remains of animals (including tigers) poached by them, to smuggle abroad. Not just the North East, but the two teenagers who are currently at the juvenile centre (following the arrests in Dindori) were even talking over the phone to contacts based as far as the US, which speaks volumes about the extent of their criminal activities, an official said. The gang has been poaching tigers in two ways through Lotus-shaped metallic booby/leg traps and the fanda (noose) made from clutch wires, besides crude bombs. You name any animal, and theyll tell you yes, theyve poached it. One of their other money spinners is narcotics trade, the official added.

MORENA: Police have arrested two persons accused of kidnapping a businessman's six-year-old son in Gwalior after a brief gunfight in Madhya Pradesh's Morena district, an official said on Sunday. The duo have told the police that they carried out the abduction for a ransom of Rs 1 crore, the official said. Two motorcycle-borne men kidnapped the child after throwing chilli powder into his mother's eyes in the Morar area of neighbouring Gwalior on Thursday morning. The boy was on his way to school with his mother. The child was found abandoned in a village in Morena 14 hours after the abduction. On Saturday night, the accused, Rahul Gurjar (28) and Bunty Gurjar (35), both residents of Morena, tried to escape after firing at the police upon seeing them near Kotwal dam. Security personnel retaliated in defence, wounding the duo who fell to the ground in Matwasiya police station limits, Superintendent of Police Sameer Saurabh told PTI. They were arrested and admitted to the Morena district hospital with leg injuries. The official said the police had received a tip-off that two men with a motorbike were sitting near the dam and planning a robbery. We have seized the motorcycle, a revolver, a country-made pistol and some bullets from them, the SP said. According to police, the arrested accused, Rahul Gurjar, has no criminal record. He had worked as a truck driver and did small business deals to make money. Rahul's accomplice Bunty was his tenant and had no cases against him, they said. SP Saurabh said that the accused informed the police that they planned to demand Rs 1 crore from the boy's father, Rahul Gupta, a sugar merchant who lives in CP Colony at Morar in Gwalior. He said the duo made plans on February 11 and wanted to carry out the abduction the next day but could not do so as the schools were closed. The accused managed to kidnap the child on February 13 and kept him at Subhash Nagar in Morena city for five to six hours before dropping him off in Kazi Basai village following an intense police vigil. The SP said that Rahul Gurjar informed the police about the involvement of two more men in the abduction. He said a hunt was launched to apprehend them. According to the police, the two absconding accused are habitual offenders, and it is suspected that they might be the masterminds behind the abduction.
