Dismissed BSF tradesmen share their sufferings, veterans support their cause for reinstatement

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 30 (IANS) About 400 tradesmen in the Border Security Force (BSF) realised their long-held dream of serving the nation in 2024 when they got recruited in the force through Prime Ministers Rozgar Mela initiative, but their dreams were short-lived as their services were terminated over fake skill certificates. Deepak, a Delhi resident, sharing his suffering, said that he never imagined that he would face termination from the national service he had always craved. After serving the BSF for nearly two years, he was dismissed from service over possession of a fake certificate. In fact, Deepak is not alone; there are around 400 tradesmen who were dismissed from jobs due to fake documents. All of them were reportedly tricked with fake skill certificates, issued by the cyber fraudsters. Today, Deepak is facing a financial crisis and is also tense about how to fund his elder sister's wedding, the responsibility for which lies on his shoulders. Like Deepak, there are many BSF tradesmen who not long ago had flourishing career options, but today they are jobless and also carry a taint of submitting fake documents. All the affected personnel, including cooks and water carriers, want their services restored and are calling for their reinstatement, failing which they plan to protest at Delhis Jantar Mantar. The 'Alliance of All Ex-Paramilitary Forces Welfare Association' on Wednesday held a press conference at the Press Club of India regarding the dismissal of these 400 individuals. The organisation demanded that the government reinstate these employees. It stated that these individuals were dismissed over fake documents and were themselves victims of cyber fraud. The organisation urged the government to reconsider the matter and provide relief to the affected employees. The organisation also announced that if no action is taken on their demands, they will launch a hunger strike at Jantar Mantar starting October 9. Speaking to IANS, Deepak said that he is from Delhi and was posted with the 155th Battalion in Ferozepur, Punjab. He said he was informed that his certificate was not genuine. According to Deepak, he fell victim to online fraud. He recounted learning about an institute via YouTube that claimed to issue valid certificates. Deepak claimed that legal action and arrests were made against the individuals involved in the matter; however, they were released after a few days and are currently running their YouTube channel. We have been victims of cyber fraud. We are facing immense difficulties. My elder sister's wedding has been put on hold. This job meant a great deal to us; we had worked very hard to secure it, he said. Ranbir Singh, General Secretary of the Alliance of All Ex-Paramilitary Forces Welfare Association, stated that the employees working as tradesmen were serving in the lower ranks of the force. Recruitment drives were held in 2023-24 for positions such as cooks, water carriers, and waiters. The candidates submitted the certificates required for this recruitment and served for two years. However, the documents later turned out to be fake. In reality, the fault does not lie with the young recruits, but with those who issued the certificates; the recruits themselves have been victims of fraud, he argued. Making a fervent appeal to the government, he said that with Diwali near, these personnel should be reinstated so that 400 families can also celebrate the festival. Association President HR Singh described the situation as highly peculiar, saying, These individuals had secured jobs as cooks, water carriers, and other tradesmen after successfully clearing written exams, physical tests, and document verifications. They served for nearly two years and became proficient in their duties; some even received awards for their performance. They fell victim to cyber fraud, and having served for two years, many are now ineligible for employment elsewhere due to age limits. While isolated cases might have been a different matter, dismissing around 400 people based on technical discrepancies is a serious issue. The government and the BSF should consider this matter from a humanitarian perspective, he added. Gajendra Singh Chaudhary, a retired BSF officer, supported their demand for a statement, claiming that the reason cited for their sacking was unfair and unsound.

FICCI Frames 2026: Ajay Devgn: Making a Hindi film is MORE difficult than regional or international cinema; you dont know your target audience

Ajay Devgn and Alok Jain, Head - Hindi & English Entertainment Business (Streaming, TV and Studios), JioStar, spoke about their upcoming film, the much-awaited Drishyam The Conclusion, on day 2 of FICCI Frames 2026. The thriller releases on October 2. While both spoke about their film, they also made a larger conversation about box-office, post-Covid changes in audience trends and a lot more. Ajay Devgn said, Id not like to take the credit away from international or regional cinema; it's as difficult to make films there, but I personally feel making a Hindi film is the most difficult. You do not know what your target audience is. When you make a Punjabi film or a Telugu film or a Tamil film, you understand the audience as its made for a certain region. You know their tastes and hence, youll target accordingly. Ajay continued, As for Hindi-speaking regions, the language changes every 80 to 90 kms. The thought process changes. You also need to understand the idea of mass and class audiences or cities or rural centres. So, either its liked by one section of the audience and the other section may not like it. As a result, the numbers dont come (as intended). Ajay Devgn further said, However, in international cinema, they know their target audience. They know that, This is how they think, this is how they behave. So, we need to make a film for them. Here, we have to target everybody. How do you cut across to everyone? Hence, it's most difficult to write a Hindi film.

Iranian boat carrying drugs worth Rs 3,000 crore seized in Lakshadweep, five Pak nationals held (Ld)

Digital Desk | Ahmedabad, Sep 30 (IANS) A Nigerian national allegedly acted as a link between a Gujarat-based wanted accused and a wider drug network that planned to move a 526-kg consignment of methamphetamine and heroin to Punjab, Gujarat ATS officials said on Wednesday, adding that the Iranian boat carrying the drugs used a Starlink device to communicate with handlers while at sea. The consignment, comprising around 400 kg of methamphetamine and 126 kg of heroin, was seized from the Iranian boat 'Azad' in the Arabian Sea west of Lakshadweep on September 25. Five Pakistani nationals on board were apprehended, and the vessel was brought to Mumbai for further investigation. Gujarat ATS DIG Sunil Joshi said the agency had received intelligence about a meeting in Ahmedabad between a Nigerian national and a wanted accused from the state in connection with the planned import of more than 500 kg of narcotics. According to the ATS, the original plan was to transfer the consignment to a Tamil Nadu fishing boat in Indian waters, unload it on the Tamil Nadu coast and then transport it onwards. The drugs were ultimately intended for Punjab, from where they could have been distributed to other parts of north India, officials said. Joshi said the investigation had established a link with Pakistan-based drug smuggler Haji Salim, describing him as a supplier and a key figure in the network. Haji Salim has his network in Punjab, Joshi said, adding that the consignment belonged to his network and had been sent by him. He said the five Pakistani nationals arrested from the 'Azad' were also believed to be part of the same network, though their precise roles were still being investigated. The ATS also found that the boat was equipped with a Starlink device. Officials said the system could provide internet connectivity in international waters and could be used for communication, including WhatsApp calls, with handlers in Pakistan. The use of the device is now part of the investigation into how the maritime network coordinated the movement of the consignment. The Nigerian national who allegedly attended the Ahmedabad meeting is also being investigated. Joshi said Nigerians have emerged in several drug-trafficking networks as intermediaries, peddlers and, in some cases, people operating networks within India. The Nigerian linked to the present case had appeared in connection with narcotics activity elsewhere, though not previously in a Gujarat ATS case, he added. The ATS said it had information identifying the intended receiver in Punjab but was withholding details while efforts to trace the network continued. We know where it was supposed to go, but we will not disclose it at present, Joshi said. The intelligence was shared with the Indian Coast Guards headquarters in Delhi, following which a joint team was formed. Gujarat ATS officers B.H. Korat and V.N. Vaghela were sent to Kochi and joined Coast Guard personnel for maritime surveillance. The operation involved sustained tracking of suspicious boats over a large maritime area. On September 25, the 'Azad' was located around 160 nautical miles northwest of Lakshadweep and approximately 490 nautical miles southwest of Mumbai. Officials told IANS that the Coast Guard used smaller boats to surround the vessel during the interception, helping prevent the suspects from throwing the narcotics overboard. Such precautions were important because dumping the consignment into the sea would have made recovery difficult, they added. The operation resulted in the seizure of 526 kg of high-grade heroin and methamphetamine valued at over Rs 3,000 crore, alongside the apprehension of five Pakistani crew members, the Indian Coast Guard said in a statement. The five accused were identified as Mohammad Yakub Balochi, Shakirullah, Faridullah, Ahmad Khan and Wahidullah Khan, all residents of Peshawar in Pakistan. Preliminary questioning indicated that the 'Azad' had sailed from the Konarak area of Iran and received the narcotics from a smaller boat originating from Gwadar, Pakistan. A case has been registered with the Gujarat ATS, and further investigation is underway to identify the remaining members of the network, including the wanted accused from Gujarat, the Nigerian intermediary and the intended receivers in Punjab.

High Court seeks status report from Punjab govt on LPU violence

Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Sep 30 (IANS) The Punjab and Haryana High Court on Wednesday sought a status report from the Punjab government on the violence, arson and vandalism at Lovely Professional University (LPU) in Phagwara, directing authorities to clarify whether the alleged sexual assault that triggered the unrest had actually taken place. A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice Ashwani Kumar Mishra and Justice Rohit Kapoor was hearing a public interest litigation filed by LPU student Ravi Raj, who has sought a CBI probe into the violence. The court has not passed any order on the demand for a CBI investigation and fixed October 8 for the next hearing. The Bench directed the state to file a report under the signatures of the Commissioner of Police, specifying whether the incident referred to in a social media post on September 26 had occurred. It also sought details of the action taken if the alleged incident had taken place and, if it had not, what steps were taken to get the social media post removed and to deal with its circulation. The case related to the violence that erupted at the university following the circulation of an unverified post on social media alleging that a female student had been raped on the campus and subsequently sent home. The rumours triggered protests, which later escalated into vandalism, arson and damage to property, while a stretch of the Jalandhar-Phagwara highway was blocked. During the hearing, the state government said the matter was under investigation. The state government's counsel also told the court that police were trying to trace the source of the Reddit post and were investigating both the alleged incident and the violence that followed. The High Court also sought clarity on the responsibility for the violence and the action taken against those involved. Punjab Police have registered three first information reports (FIRs) in connection with the unrest and constituted a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe allegations, including arson, robbery and assault on police personnel. The university had suspended academic activities following the unrest, while security was tightened on the campus.

Will make Punjab free of chitta by December 2029, says Amit Shah at Jalandhar rally

Digital Desk | Jalandhar, Sep 30 (IANS) Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday promised to make Punjab free of the illicit chitta (synthetic drug) trade before December 31, 2029, saying the BJP would contest the next Assembly elections in the state primarily on the issue of a drug-free Punjab. Addressing a massive anti-drug rally in Jalandhar city, he urged the mothers and the youth of Punjab to extend support to the BJP in the next Assembly elections by voting for the lotus symbol, promising to free the state from the illicit drug trade. Why has the need arisen today to make Punjab drug-free? Because the Aam Aadmi Party government has allowed the chitta trade to operate openly, he said. His address marked the culmination of the BJPs 13-day Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra, which covered all 117 Assembly constituencies in the state. I have come today to tell the people of Punjab that there are several issues in the states elections... issues concerning farmers, industry, law and order, and womens safety. But the Bharatiya Janata Party will contest the upcoming election solely on the issue of making Punjab drug-free, he said in his nearly 20-minute address in Hindi. Without mincing words, the Home Minister said, Someone who gets intoxicated and insults the Gurus cannot free Punjab from the scourge of drugs. It cannot liberate Punjab. Only the BJP is capable of freeing Punjab from drugs. The BJP has already demonstrated this. We launched a nationwide campaign for a drug-free India. From 2004 to 2014, the Congress was in power; in those 10 years, 26 lakh kg of narcotics were seized nationwide. Then came Modi ji's government; between 2014 and 2024, PM Modi's government seized Rs 1.2 crore kg of drugs. The Congress had seized narcotics worth Rs 40,000 crore, but in contrast, the BJP seized drugs of Rs 1,90,000 crore. Describing his visit to Jalandhar for the anti-drug campaign as a matter of great honour, HM Shah said Punjab was known across the country for two major contributions -- ensuring food security and safeguarding the nations borders. Whenever the country needed food, Punjabs farmers filled our granaries and continue to do so even today, he said. He said Punjab had also made immense sacrifices for the country's security, both before and after Independence. Whether it was before Independence or after it, whenever the question of security arose, Punjab was always ready with its response. The sacrifices of Punjabis not only secured our freedom but also helped protect India's borders after Independence, HM Shah said. The BJP said the campaign covering nearly 4,000 km was aimed at mobilising public support against drug abuse in the state. Calling for a united fight against drugs, HM Shah said the people of Punjab were waging a decisive battle against the menace. He said the BJP had launched the statewide yatra to unite people and raise awareness about drug abuse, particularly among the youth. The Home Minister also said the Centre would take steps to disrupt the drug supply chain in Punjab and strengthen efforts of Central agencies to check cross-border smuggling. Before addressing the rally, HM Shah met families affected by drug abuse and listened to their experiences. The BJP had earlier brought several drug-affected families before the media, including those who had lost their children to addiction. Posing a question to the gathering -- Can AAP make Punjab drug-free? -- HM Shah replied, I have just met the families of those who have lost their lives to drug addiction. A mother, holding photographs of her two young sons in her lap, said, 'Stop this. I couldnt save mine, but save someone elses son.' And AAP has no shame? Those who insult the Gurus while being intoxicated cannot free Punjab from the scourge of chitta. The campaign, under the slogan BJP da Naara, Nasha Mukauna Saara, also highlighted issues of law and order and corruption, besides drug abuse. The rally comes ahead of the 2027 Punjab Assembly elections, with the BJP seeking to make the drug menace a major political issue in the state.

Dil Le Gayee fame Jasbir Jassi takes a dig at those making big promises for Punjab: Let Punjab remain Punjab

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 30 (IANS) Singer Jasbir Jassi, best known for his popular track Dil Le Gayee, has seemingly taken an indirect dig at those making various promises about changing Punjab.

Delhi-NCR likely to turn dry as rains ease; air quality remains in moderate category

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 30 (IANS) Delhi-NCR is likely to witness a significant shift in weather from Wednesday, with the recent spell of rain and thunderstorms expected to give way to predominantly dry conditions. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast mainly clear skies over the national capital and neighbouring areas, with dry weather likely to prevail across Delhi, Haryana and Chandigarh through the first week of October. The change comes after showers on Tuesday brought a noticeable chill to Delhi, with temperatures briefly giving the national capital a winter-like feel. However, the latest weather forecast indicates that rainfall activity is likely to subside from Wednesday, particularly over northwest India. Delhi, Haryana, Punjab and parts of Uttar Pradesh are expected to remain largely dry as the recent rain and thunderstorm activity weakens. Delhi is likely to record a minimum temperature of around 24 degrees Celsius and a maximum temperature of nearly 33 degrees Celsius on Wednesday. While northwest India is expected to remain mostly dry, weather conditions across the rest of the country are likely to remain varied. Rain and thunderstorms are expected to continue over parts of southern, eastern and northeastern India. According to the IMD forecast, isolated heavy rainfall is likely over several areas of the Northeast and southern peninsula on Wednesday. The southern peninsula is expected to remain one of the major rain-affected regions, with some areas likely to receive heavy showers. The IMD has classified Haryana, Chandigarh and Delhi as dry on Wednesday. Similar conditions are expected over Punjab, Rajasthan and most parts of Uttar Pradesh. The contrasting weather conditions across different regions are being influenced by several atmospheric systems currently active over the country. A depression over coastal Myanmar and the adjoining Bay of Bengal was moving rapidly north-northwestwards on Tuesday. The system was expected to weaken into a well-marked low-pressure area later on September 29 and continue moving towards southeast Bangladesh and adjoining northeastern parts of India. At the same time, a western disturbance and associated upper-air systems continue to influence parts of north India. Another circulation and trough are extending across southern India. The interaction and movement of these systems are contributing to the contrasting weather patterns being observed across the country. The IMD also recorded heavy to very heavy rainfall at isolated places over Haryana during the 24 hours ending Tuesday morning. The rainfall highlights the intensity of the recent spell over parts of north India, even as the broader weather pattern is now expected to turn predominantly dry. The southwest monsoon is also continuing its gradual withdrawal from the country as the rainy season approaches its conclusion. With the monsoon retreating, northwest India is expected to gradually transition towards predominantly dry weather. However, rainfall activity is likely to persist in several other parts of the country. Uttarakhand may experience isolated rain and thunderstorms through October 4, while Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh could witness similar weather conditions between October 2 and 4. Himachal Pradesh may also receive isolated showers during the period. In central India, rain and thunderstorms are likely over parts of Madhya Pradesh, Vidarbha and Chhattisgarh in the coming days. The Northeast is expected to remain relatively wetter, with rainfall forecast over Assam, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram and Tripura through October 4. Some areas may also receive heavy rainfall. Southern India is likely to remain another significant zone of rainfall. The IMD has forecast isolated heavy showers over parts of the southern peninsula during the next four to five days, with Tamil Nadu, Kerala and South Interior Karnataka among the areas likely to receive heavy rainfall. Meanwhile, Delhi's air quality remained in the 'moderate' category. The Air Quality Index (AQI) readings included Mandir Marg at 97, Aya Nagar at 79, Punjabi Bagh at 113, CRRI Mathura Road at 138, Pusa at 149, Sirifort at 105, IGI Airport (T3) at 101, Commonwealth Sports Complex at 122, North Campus at 122, R K Puram at 122, ITO at 86, IIT Delhi at 140, DTU at 100, Wazirpur at 134, Jahangirpuri at 153, Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium at 105, Anand Vihar at 105 and Cantonment Area at 105.

HM Amit Shah to address BJPs anti-drug rally in Jalandhar today

Digital Desk | Jalandhar, Sep 30 (IANS) Union Home Minister Amit Shah will visit Jalandhar in Punjab on Wednesday to address the concluding programme of the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) 'Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra', a statewide campaign against drug abuse that has covered all 117 Assembly constituencies. Four yatras, launched simultaneously from different parts of the state on September 18, are scheduled to converge at the rally venue after traversing nearly 4,000 km across Punjab. The rally is set to be a significant political gathering for the BJP ahead of the 2027 Punjab Assembly elections. The campaign seeks to draw attention to the growing concern over drug abuse and rally public support for the goal of making Punjab drug-free. According to BJP leaders, around two lakh people are expected to attend the rally. The party has made arrangements at a 50-55-acre site, with approximately 40 acres earmarked for the main gathering and the remaining area for parking. Nearly 2,000 buses carrying party workers and supporters from different parts of Punjab are expected to reach Jalandhar for the event. The BJP has also planned to highlight the plight of families affected by drug abuse during the programme. HM Shah's visit comes at a time when the BJP has intensified its political activities in Punjab, with the drug menace emerging as one of its principal campaign issues ahead of the Assembly elections. The party has been targeting the ruling Aam Aadmi Party government over its handling of the drug problem, while the latter has maintained its commitment to tackling the menace. BJP leaders have described the campaign as an effort to create awareness about drug abuse and involve people in the fight against addiction. To review the preparations, state party President Kewal Singh Dhillon and state in-charge Satish Poonia visited the rally venue. They held discussions with officials regarding security arrangements, traffic management, parking, public convenience and other necessary arrangements for the rally. Dhillon said Punjab is currently facing a serious drug menace, and the BJP has been reaching out to the people on this issue. Through the Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra, efforts are being made to create awareness among people in villages and cities across Punjab against drugs.

Pakistan: Ahmadiyya community condemns growing attacks in Punjab province

Digital Desk | Islamabad, Sep 29 (IANS) The Ahmadiyya community in Pakistan has strongly condemned attack on an Ahmadi man in country's Punjab province, terming it as a cowardly assault and highlighting that it was motivated by his faith and part of a broader pattern of violence and hostility against Ahmadis, a report has detailed. The community's statement came after an Ahmadi man was seriously injured after being stabbed in Lathianwala in Punjab's Faisalabad just days after an Ahmadi man and his son were injured when unidentified assailants opened fire at them. The Ahmadiyya community has urged Pakistani authorities to act against the perpetrators behind the attacks and ensure protection for Ahmadis in the future, 'Voice PK' reported. The report added that persistence of hate-driven violence has raised serious concerns about safety among members of the Ahmadiyya community and the continuous failure of authorities to act against perpetrators could embolden those responsible for such attacks. The victim, identified as Hamid Javed, was injured after he was attacked near his residence in Lathianwala at around 5:30 pm on September 21. He told police that he was returning home when an unidentified man aged between 40 and 42 years approached him and attacked him with a knife. On September 19, an Ahmadi man and his son were injured after gunmen opened fire at them in Punjab's Sargodha, Voicepk.net reported. Earlier this month, Karachi-based International Human Rights Committee (IHRC) called for immediate justice and accountability in the assassination of Mirza Safdar Mahmood, a local leader of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community in Pakistans Punjab Province. Mirza Safdar Mahmood, aged 65, was shot dead in the town of Mandi Bahauddin, reported Spanish media outlet 'Atalayar'. IHRC is an organisation focusing specifically on the rights of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community. Targeted killing: Ahmadi local official gunned down in Pakistan. Mirza Safdar Mahmood, 65, was shot dead while travelling to an Ahmadi place of worship in Mandi Bahauddin.IHRC calls for immediate justice and accountability, IHRC stated on X, sharing a detailed report. IHRC stated that the targeted killing of Mahmood cannot be viewed in isolation as it comes amid a deeply disturbing backdrop of persistent anti-Ahmadi hatred, incitement and threats across Pakistan. Representatives of the Ahmadiyya Community stressed that the victim had no personal disputes or prior animosities, pointing squarely to a targeted killing motivated by religious intolerance. Mahmood is survived by his wife and two children; his funeral and burial arrangements were subsequently conducted in the city of Rabwah, the report in Atalayar revealed. It noted that the assassination took place amid the escalating incitement and hate speech targeting Ahmadis across the district of Mandi Bahauddin. In recent weeks, regional religious figures had issued virulent threats, including public death threats against a local police officer on account of his Ahmadi faith, as well as explicit intimidation directed at pregnant Ahmadi women. This pattern of lethal violence has direct operational precedents in the immediate area: on 8 June 2024, two members of the Ahmadiyya community were shot and killed in separate armed ambushes carried out on the same day in the locality of Sadullahpur, the report highlighted.

Punjab: Sunil Jakhar alleges AAP leaders occupying ministers residences

Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Sep 29 (IANS) Former Punjab BJP President Sunil Jakhar on Tuesday alleged that Delhi-based Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders had occupied official residences meant for ministers and were exercising control over the states administration with the backing of party supremo Arvind Kejriwal, whom he described as the super CM. Visiting official residences of ministers and the Sector 39 Circuit House here, Jakhar alleged that AAP associates were occupying government properties without authorisation, displacing legitimate occupants. He said he visited the premises to confirm who was actually living there, rather than relying on social media discussions and hearsay. Questioning the alleged presence of files from the department of Cabinet Minister Hardeep Singh Mundian at residence No. 926, Jakhar said a minister was bound by his constitutional oath to maintain confidentiality in official matters. He claimed the files contained information relating to an alleged Rs 10,000-crore GMADA scam and questioned how they had reached the residence where AAP leader Satyendar Jain was allegedly staying. Jakhar alleged that the incident reflected a system of administrative control from Delhi and said the Enforcement Directorates investigation would bring out the truth. He demanded Mundians resignation. Targeting Kejriwal, Jakhar recalled that the AAP leader had projected himself as an advocate of simplicity and honesty and had earlier declared that he would not accept an official residence as Chief Minister. However, he alleged that under the AAP government in Punjab, party associates from Delhi had occupied official properties meant for state ministers. Jakhar also claimed that Punjab Police was preventing him from entering the Sector 39 Circuit House despite his having booked a room there for September 29 two days earlier. I am a resident of Punjab and have a valid booking, yet I am being denied entry, while people without any legal authority are occupying government properties, he said. He further claimed that Circuit House rooms had been placed under the permanent control of AAP associates, leaving visiting government officials, political leaders and journalists from Punjab without access to accommodation. Alleging that ministers had become ministers only in name, Jakhar said their identities were being concealed, with even nameplates removed from their official residences. He urged Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to discharge his responsibility towards Punjab and remove what he described as unidentified Delhi-based occupants from government properties. Warning that the protest would intensify if the alleged illegal occupation continued, Jakhar said the buildings had been constructed with taxpayers money, and those occupying them must vacate. On the unrest at Lovely Professional University and Chitkara University, reportedly triggered by rumours, Jakhar said the incidents were serious and required a thorough investigation. Referring particularly to the developments at Lovely Professional University, he alleged that people posing as protesters had reached a girls hostel, raising concerns about students' safety. Jakhar reiterated his demand for a probe by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) into the incidents at the two universities.

Punjab FC sign former Levante midfielder Mickal Malsa ahead of ISL 2026-27

Digital Desk | Mohali, Sep 29 (IANS) Punjab FC have strengthened their midfield ahead of the 2026-27 Indian Super League season with the signing of French midfielder Mickal Ramon Vincent Malsa, who has more than 60 La Liga appearances to his name. The 30-year-old has signed a contract with the Shers until May 31, 2027, and joins the club after a career that has taken him across France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Greece, Spain and Morocco. Malsa spent four seasons with Spanish club Levante UD, featuring prominently in La Liga and gaining experience at the highest level of Spanish football. His Spanish career has also included spells with Albacete, Real Valladolid and CD Mirands, whom he rejoined earlier this year. A defensive-minded central midfielder, Malsa is expected to add experience and greater stability to Punjab FCs midfield as the club prepares for another ISL campaign. I am really happy to be joining Punjab FC and to be part of this clubs journey. I have heard great things about the passion of the fans and the ambition within the squad, and I cannot wait to get started. I aim to bring my experience to the midfield, work hard for the team, and help us achieve big things together this season, Malsa said after completing the move. Malsa began his development at FC Sochaux-Montbliard before making his senior debut in French football. His early career also saw him represent US Avranches, followed by stints at Belgian side Royal Antwerp, Dutch club Fortuna Sittard and Greek outfit Platanias. The midfielder later established himself in Spain, where his time with Levante represented the most significant spell of his career. He also spent time with Wydad AC in Morocco and featured for the club at the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. At international level, Malsa represents Martinique, adding further international experience to his club career. Punjab FC will hope his ability to operate in central midfield, coupled with his experience in European leagues, can provide greater balance to the side as they target a competitive 2026-27 campaign. Malsas arrival is the latest move by Punjab FC to add experience to a squad that has also placed emphasis on developing young Indian talent through its academy system.

LPU Dean blames outsiders for violent protests, says some students reacted to rumours

Digital Desk | Phagwara, Sep 29 (IANS) Lovely Professional University (LPU) Dean Dr Sorabh Lakhanpal on Tuesday blamed outsiders and anti-social elements for the violent protests and vandalism at the university campus in Punjab's Phagwara and called the sexual assault allegations that triggered the demonstration social media rumours. Speaking to IANS, Prof Lakhanpal said: I would describe itmore or lessas a situation where rumours and misleading messages were circulated; the students genuinely wanted to know the facts. But on the other hand, some students didn't want to think or understand the situation. They were looking for an opportunity...I always refer to them as anti-social elements or outsidersthose who turned this into a violent protest and vandalised our university. Investigation must be conducted; their names should be revealed, and appropriate action must be taken, he said. However, said that the student representatives are also looking into the matter. We have stood by them from the very first night, listening to their concerns and acting exactly as they requested. They wanted a committee formed, so we selected one; they wanted to review CCTV footage...we took whatever immediate action the students sought, such as hostel visits. We addressed all the anticipated issues, he stated. Referring to the protest reels on social media, the Dean said: Our senior students and alumni feel hurt and distressed that such vandalism took place at the campus, which should not have happened. Regarding who circulated the message that a female student was sexually assaulted, he said that the police are investigating it. The details will emerge through the due process involving the cyber cell or the police; that will clarify everything. It will reveal the phone numbers, IP addresses, and locations involved in the circulation. And I am sure that action will be taken against those involved, Lakhanpal said. On why it took time for the university to reach a solution the students could agree on, the Dean said the genuine students were already satisfied, as they knew progress was being made and the investigation was moving forward. However, I believe there was a conspiracy behind this to disrupt the academic atmosphere. Because we also observed the presence of outsiders and anti-social elements. So, the reason was that they didn't want the matter to be resolved, he alleged. Moreover, Sorabh Lakhanpal said it would be better if the CBI takes up a probe into the matter. Let the police carry out their inquirywe are fine with that. But if the CBI investigates, we would feel more assured. And it would help in reaching those involved as quickly as possible. When asked about whether the police have found out the involvement of outsiders, he said: The police were somewhat negligent, which is why such a major incident occurredfire broke out, vehicles were torched, and stones were pelted. Responding to allegations that LPU was targeted after its founder and chancellor, Ashok Mittal, switched from the AAP to the BJP, Lakhanpal sought an investigation. This matter certainly needs to be investigated. I am confident that through the investigations conducted by the police, civil administration, and university administration, we will get to the bottom of this; once the facts are established, appropriate action must be taken against those found guilty, he said. LPU Dean further said that though classes are currently suspended for 10 days following the violent protests, they will resume soon, and the varsity will ensure the syllabus does not suffer.

IFA Shield: Punjab FC aim to top group against East Bengal after dominant debut

Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 29 (IANS) Punjab FC will look to carry the momentum of their emphatic opening victory when they take on East Bengal FC in their final Group II fixture of the IFA Shield 2026-27 at the East Bengal Ground in Kolkata on Wednesday. The match, scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m., will decide the group toppers, with both Punjab FC and East Bengal having already secured their places in the semifinals after winning their respective opening matches against Calcutta Customs Club. Punjab FC announced their arrival in the competition in emphatic fashion, thrashing Calcutta Customs 7-0 on Sunday in Pavlos Dermitzakis first match as head coach. The result also saw new signing Raphael Messi Bouli make an immediate impact, with the Cameroon international scoring a hat-trick and providing two assists. Boulis three-goal haul has put him level with Mohun Bagans Lallianzuala Chhangte at the top of the tournaments scoring charts. Punjabs attacking options were further underlined by goals from Diego Raposo, Konsam Sanathoi Singh and Bishu Sharma in the opening fixture. The Shers will also be encouraged by the contribution of their academy graduates. Manglenthang Kipgen impressed in midfield against Customs with his pressing and distribution, while Muhammed Uvais, Suresh Meitei and Nikhil Prabhu formed part of a young core that helped Punjab maintain control of the game. Dermitzakis expects a more demanding test against an East Bengal side playing on home turf. We had a fantastic start to the tournament, and the 7-0 victory showed the attacking quality and tactical discipline we possess. However, East Bengal is a historic club playing in front of their home fans, so it will be a completely different test. I am incredibly proud of how our Roundglass Academy graduates, particularly young players like Kipgen, stepped up and controlled the tempo. We will need that same intensity and teamwork tomorrow to secure the top spot in our group. East Bengal, meanwhile, entered the contest after beating Calcutta Customs 3-1 in their opening game. Despite conceding in the 12th minute, Bino Georges side recovered strongly to register a comfortable victory. With East Bengal juggling commitments in the AFC Champions League Two and the ISL, the club has used the IFA Shield to give opportunities to several reserve and emerging players. Akash Hemram and Rohit Danu were among those to find the net against Customs and will again be expected to provide attacking impetus. Punjab FC and East Bengal last met in the ISL in May, when the two sides played out a goalless draw at the Salt Lake Stadium. With a semifinal berth already assured for both teams, Wednesdays encounter will instead determine who finishes at the summit of Group II and gains the corresponding semifinal draw advantage.

Four killed, eight injured in two accidents on Delhi-Mumbai Expressway in MP

Digital Desk | Ratlam, Sep 29 (IANS) At least four people were killed and eight others injured in two separate road accidents on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway in Madhya Pradesh's Ratlam district on Tuesday, police said. The accidents occurred within a span of about two hours on the eight-lane expressway under the jurisdiction of Jaora Industrial police station, with both cars plunging into a 30-40 feet deep gorge after hitting the central median. The first accident took place around 4:30 a.m. when a car carrying a family from Punjab, travelling from Ambala in Haryana to Mumbai, hit the median railing. The vehicle broke through a portion of the railing and fell into the gorge, police said. Narendra Kaur (67) and her daughter-in-law Manpreet Kaur (32), both from Punjab, died in the accident. Three other occupants, including an elderly man and two children, were injured. Prima facie, it appears that the driver may have become drowsy while driving at high speed and lost control of the vehicle, causing it to hit the railing, Jaora Industrial police station in-charge Prakash Gadariya said. Police reached the spot after receiving information from other motorists and shifted the injured to a hospital in Jaora. They were later referred to Ratlam Medical College for further treatment. While police personnel were examining the site of the first accident, another car carrying a family from Dahod in Gujarat met with an accident around 6:30 a.m., police said. The second vehicle, bearing registration number GJ20 CB 4610, reportedly went airborne after hitting the central median and fell into the gorge. The railing at the spot had been damaged in the first accident. Ravi Hatila (35), who was driving the second car, and Ramesh Makwana (50), both from Dahod, were killed. Four to five other occupants of the vehicle were injured. The railing had been damaged in the first accident, and while our personnel were conducting an inspection at the spot, the second car hit the median and fell into the gorge, Gadariya said. The Gujarat family was returning to Dahod after travelling to Uttar Pradesh for medical treatment of a family member. Police have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding both accidents, including the condition of the road infrastructure and the factors that led to the vehicles losing control.

Akal Takht acting Jathedar meets death-row convict Rajoana in Patiala jail

Digital Desk | Patiala, Sep 29 (IANS) Akal Takht Acting Jathedar Giani Kuldeep Singh Gargajj and Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) President Harjinder Singh Dhami on Tuesday met death-row convict Balwant Singh Rajoana at the Central Jail in Punjabs Patiala city. The meeting is understood to have focused on issues concerning Rajoana, particularly his mercy petition pending with the Union government and the broader issue of Sikh prisoners lodged in different jails. Quoting Rajoana, Dhami told the media after the meeting, I am in high spirits, and I accept martyrdom over humiliation. Rajoana was awarded the death sentence for his role in the 1995 assassination of former Punjab chief minister Beant Singh. His mercy petition, seeking commutation of the death sentence to life imprisonment, has been pending with the Centre since 2012. The petition under Article 72 of the Constitution was moved by the SGPC in March 2012. This month, Rajoana wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, seeking an early decision on his mercy petition against the death sentence. The SGPC has repeatedly urged the Union government to take a decision on the petition, maintaining that the prolonged delay has caused distress to Rajoana. In May 2025, Dhami had met Rajoana in the Patiala jail and criticised the Centre for not deciding his mercy plea. He had also said that Rajoana wanted the SGPC to withdraw its petition and press for an immediate decision. The meeting comes amid continued efforts by Sikh religious bodies to pursue the cases of Sikh prisoners, popularly referred to as Bandi Singhs. In a letter dated September 16, Rajoana said he had spent the past 30 years in prison and questioned why the Centre had not taken a decision on his plea. Referring to the notification issued in 2019 on the occasion of the 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev, he said it had not been implemented till date.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has arrested fugitive businessman Nirav Modi's associate Sandeep Mistry following his extradition from the UAE in connection with a multi-million-dollar PNB scam, officials said. After being extradited on Monday, the CBI formally placed Mistry under arrest in Mumbai on Tuesday. The agency subsequently produced him before a special CBI court, but did not press for his remand. The court then remanded Mistry to judicial custody till October 6. The arrest was made in compliance with a non-bailable warrant issued by a special court in November 2025. Mistry had served as the director of Fancy Creations Ltd, a Hong Kong-based company of Nirav Modi. The CBI alleged that Mistry played an active role in the criminal conspiracy with Modi and other accused persons, in furtherance of which the Punjab National Bank was cheated to the tune of nearly Rs 6,498.20 crore. The central agency has also claimed that Mistry, along with Modi's brother Nehal and .

Terror outfits deploy dead-drop tactics to evade detection and funnel contraband into India

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 29 (IANS) Terrorist organisations operating against India switched to covert dead-drop techniques to transfer funds, weapons, and operational instructions, intelligence officials have revealed. Groups including Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), Babbar Khalsa International (BKI), and the proscribed Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) adopted non-contact logistics to conceal the identity of handlers based in Pakistan. Terrorism has evolved considerably, and this has led to the agencies facing fresh challenges with each passing year. Groups such as the Islamic State and Al-Qaeda have moved towards all radicalisation models while also relying heavily on lone actors to carry out attacks. Terror groups that have been formed to hit India continue to use conventional methods when it comes to setting up modules and planning attacks. While groups such as the Lashkar and Jaish run conventional networks that also include radicalisation modules, they have started using dead-drop methods extensively. An Intelligence Bureau official says that the primary objective of using the dead-drop technique is to evade the trail. The Lashkar-e-Taiba, Jaish-e-Mohammed and Babbar Khalsa International have increasingly used dead-drop methods in recent times. These methods are being used to channelise funds and weapons and to facilitate covert operations in India, the IB official said. Terror groups are increasingly moving away from physical handovers, which are considered risky and make it easier for security agencies to trace the chain of transactions and establish its links to Pakistan, the official said. Apart from being dropped by drones, arms and ammunition are also being left in isolated locations and rural areas for subsequent collection. The arms and ammunition pass through multiple hands before being collected and eventually dropped at a designated location. Those involved in moving the consignments do not know who supplied them initially or who will ultimately collect them, the officials said. Even if one of those involved is caught, investigators would find it difficult to establish who initially supplied the consignment and who was supposed to collect it eventually, the officials added. Another official said operations were also being planned using the dead-drop method. According to the official, all operatives involved in a plot share the login credentials of a single anonymous email account, allowing them to communicate without directly contacting one another. Only one of the users writes a message and saves it in the draft folder. The other operative then logs in, reads the draft, deletes it, and then posts a fresh message in the draft folder. This eliminates hitting the send button altogether, and the message never moves through the Internet, thus making it difficult for the security agencies to track it down. The official said that in recent times, even the SFJ that is headed by proscribed terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun has been using the dead-drop technique. This technique is used to send a message to the operatives on what they have to undertake. Pannun, through this technique, instructs operatives in Punjab to indulge in vandalism. The agencies had recently arrested Preetpal Singh and his associates after they had spray-painted anti-BRICS and pro-Khalistan slogans in Delhi and Punjab. The investigation found that the message and the money paid were delivered using the dead-drop method. Singh was paid Rs 1.5 lakh, and the money was kept at a dropped location on the Amritsar-Faridkot highway. Indian security agencies are also concerned about the rise in narco-terrorism involving dead-drop methods. The traditional practice of directly handing over narcotics is increasingly being replaced by covert methods, with drones being used extensively to drop drug consignments into India. The drop-off point is communicated to the person assigned to collect the consignment, who is then instructed to leave the narcotics at a pre-determined location, such as a field, an isolated stretch along a highway or a remote rural spot. The person delivering the consignment does not know who will eventually collect it. Officials said this system creates multiple layers of separation, making it harder for investigators to trace the supply chain. The dead-drop method is emerging as a major challenge for Indian security agencies. Since handlers and local operatives rarely, if ever, come face-to-face, investigators face greater difficulty in establishing a clear trail linking those involved. The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which has been probing such cases, has been bypassing email inbox checks. Instead, sophisticated forensic tools are used to pull raw disk data, unsent and deleted text drafts, and temporary cloud links. The NIA has also been working closely with the state agencies to stop locals from retrieving drops. Terror groups would continue to use this method and also more extensively in the future as well. While the Indian agencies have managed to crack several such cases, it still poses a major challenge, an official said.

Centre sanctions Rs 1,200 crore to 10 states under PM Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 29 (IANS) Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Tuesday handed over financial sanction letters worth more than Rs 1,200 crore to agriculture ministers of 10 states under the Prime Minister Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (PM-RKVY). The disbursement included Rs 290 crore for West Bengal, Rs 198 crore for Haryana, Rs 181 crore for Chhattisgarh, Rs 154 crore for Arunachal Pradesh, Rs 114 crore for Bihar, Rs 104 crore for Karnataka, Rs 75 crore for Mizoram, Rs 64 crore for Himachal Pradesh, Rs 58 crore for Jharkhand and Rs 43 crore for Punjab. Chairing a meeting attended by Agriculture Ministers and senior officials from various states, Chouhan said the Union Government was not only limiting itself to policy formulation, but also ensuring timely availability of resources to states so that implementation of schemes could begin on the ground without delay. Highlighting the countrys agricultural performance, Chouhan said that since 2015, the agriculture growth rate has increased from 3 per cent to 4.5 per cent. The average annual increase in foodgrain production has also more than doubled, rising from around 40 lakh tonnes earlier to 84 lakh tonnes per year. He further noted that in just two years, from 2023-24 to 2025-26, rabi foodgrain production recorded an unprecedented increase of 205 lakh tonnes. Announcing a new mechanism to further strengthen cooperative federalism, Chouhan said that, on the lines of weekly reviews conducted at the Centre, regular monthly virtual review meetings with states would now be held to continuously assess progress. At the state level, a strong State Agriculture Team will be constituted by bringing together the Agriculture Minister, Agriculture Secretary, state agricultural universities, ICAR institutions, Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs), ATMA and Farmer Producer Organisations (FPOs). Monthly meetings will also be held at the district level. Emphasising the need to protect soil health and the environment, Chouhan called for a nationwide Khet Bachao Abhiyan from October 22 to November 30 this year. Scientists and all key stakeholders will actively participate in the campaign. Based on Soil Health Cards, the campaign will promote balanced use of fertilisers to protect soil fertility and beneficial insects. He also called for large-scale promotion of pulse cultivation in rice fallow areas of eastern India, particularly in Jharkhand, Bihar, Odisha and West Bengal, after the paddy harvest. As part of preparations for the current rabi season, Chouhan stressed that recommendations on crops and improved seeds should be based on soil moisture and water availability. Stating that the availability of seeds and fertilisers in the country is adequate, Chouhan directed states to take strict legal action against fake fertilisers, spurious seeds and sub-standard pesticides. Chouhan said the government is pursuing a multi-dimensional strategy to ensure that farmers receive fair and remunerative prices for their produce. The strategy includes strengthening post-harvest management, scientific warehousing and marketing systems. He said that 100 per cent assured government procurement of tur, urad and masoor at MSP would be undertaken, with arrangements for payment within 48 hours. In line with Prime Minister Narendra Modis vision, he said India would also leverage the new market opportunities emerging from international Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) to connect Indian agricultural products, fruits, vegetables and foodgrains with global markets. This, he said, would help farmers secure better returns for their produce and enable India to emerge as a major food basket for the world.
