Mumbai Retain Omkar Salvi As Senior Mens Head Coach For Upcoming Domestic Season
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Omkar Salvi has been retained as the head coach of the Mumbai senior mens team for the upcoming 2025/26 domestic season, said the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) on Wednesday. The MCA also said Sanjay Patil has been retained as the chairman of the senior mens selection committee. In the 2024/25 domestic season, under Salvis coaching, Mumbai won the Irani Cup after a gap of 27 years, as well as won the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy before making it to semi-finals of the Ranji Trophy. Salvi now goes into the forthcoming domestic season after being the bowling coach of IPL 2025 winners Royal Challengers Bengaluru. His outstanding leadership and coaching over the past two seasons have played a vital role in the teams strong performances. His ability to bring out the best in players has been exceptional, MCA president Ajinkya Naik said in a statement. Notably, MCA has appointed former left-arm spinner Ankeet Chavan as head coach of Mumbai Under-14 mens team. Chavan was one of the three Rajasthan Royals (RR) players who were banned for life due to their involvement in the 2013 spot fixing scandal. But after their competitive cricket ban was reduced to seven years, Chavan played club cricket in Mumbai for Karnataka Sports Club and later cleared his Level-1 coaching exam. In his playing career, Chavan earned 13 IPL caps, as well as played for Mumbai in 18 first-class matches and 20 List A games.

Poaching threats rise in Ranthambore after recovery of bones of three tigers
JAIPUR: Are tigers in Rajasthans Ranthambore Tiger Reserve the latest targets of an international poaching network? That's the disturbing question creating buzz among wildlife lovers. It comes following the shocking revelations after the arrest of a poaching gang in Sheopur, Madhya Pradesh, during a joint operation by the Madhya Pradesh State Tiger Strike Force, the Rajasthan Forest Department, and Sawai Madhopur-based NGO Tiger Watch last month. Among those arrested were Dauji Bhil and Sunita Dauji, residents of Dausa in Rajasthan, and Besta Bhil, a resident of Sheopur. The forest team recovered around 225 big cat bones, including skulls resembling those of tigers, from the possession of the accused. The seized remains were sent to Jabalpur for forensic analysis, which confirmed that they belonged to at least three tigers and a panther. The samples have now been forwarded to the National Centre for Biological Sciences (NCBS) in Bengaluru for DNA matching to determine the origin of the animals. Madhya Pradesh forest officials have formally requested the Rajasthan Forest Department to share DNA profiles of tigers from Ranthambore to assist in the matching process. Ranthambore Field Director Anoop K. R., in a report to the Chief Wildlife Warden of Rajasthan, noted: A few bones have been identified as that of a tiger. As part of further investigation to determine their origin, the joint team of MP and Rajasthan forest departments is working in close coordination. Due to its proximity to Sheopur, Ranthambore is the most likely source of the poached tigers. In contrast, Madhavgarh Tiger Reserve lies over 100 km away, and Panna Tiger Reserve is approximately 300 km from Sheopur. According to official records, five tigers from Ranthambore T79, T131, T138, T139, and T2401 have gone missing under suspicious circumstances between June 2022 and May 2024. The missing animals include two females and three males, aged between 3 and 12 years. Sources also claim that during interrogation, the accused confessed to having killed five tigers from Ranthambore between 2002 and 2004. Officials suspect the gang as a part of a wider international poaching network with links to other tiger reserves across India and to countries such as Nepal and Myanmar. It is also believed that the group received payments via digital channels and hawala networks in exchange for killing tigers. The DNA matching process at NCBS is expected to take a few weeks. Once complete, it could conclusively establish whether Ranthambores missing tigers fell victims to poachers -- a finding that may have significant implications for wildlife protection efforts in the region.
PATNA: Amid preparations for the upcoming Bihar assembly elections, senior BJP leader and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said in Patna on Wednesday that Bihar Chief Minister and JD(U) supremo Nitish Kumar will be the chief ministerial candidate of the ruling NDA in Bihar, and the alliance will contest the election under his leadership. Addressing BJP workers at the state executive committee meeting, Singh said Bihar will progress under the joint leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bihar CM Nitish Kumar. Bihar is safe under the leadership of Nitish Kumar, he said, adding that the NDA is committed to the states development. He also exuded confidence that the NDA will return to power again in the November 2025 assembly elections. Hitting out at the Opposition Congress and RJD, the Defence Minister said, Their (Opposition parties) only motive is to stay in power, whereas BJP remains inspired by the idea of nation-building. The objective of BJP is to ensure that every citizen of India leads a dignified life. For this purpose, PM Modi has taken several measures, he told the workers. He blamed the Congress-RJD alliance for pushing Bihar backward and ruining the future of its youths. He also held the Opposition alliance responsible for causing immense damage to womens dignity and for earning a bad name for the state due to lawlessness and poor governance during their regime. Its only PM Modi and Nitish Kumar, whose leadership will take Bihar forward, he asserted. Singh credited PM Modi for pushing policies that aim to develop every section of society and ensure that people lead their lives with dignity. Its because of these progressive policies that India has become the fourth largest economy in the world and is striving to reach the third position, he remarked, amid applause from the party workers. He said PM Modi has demonstrated through his leadership and skill over the past decade that India can progress under strong leadership. No one can stop the nation from moving forward if leadership is strong, policy is clear, and national interest is paramount. This sense should be instilled in the heart of every citizen of Bihar, he added. Singh further stated that it is because of this belief and dedication that the BJP has established itself as the largest political party in the world. In BJP, everyone works with the spirit of a worker, irrespective of their positions in the organisation. This is the foundation of the partys strength. As a result, BJP has become the largest political outfit in the entire world, he said. He claimed that BJP has fulfilled the promises made in its election manifesto. In the third term of PM Modi, four years are still left. This should also be taken into consideration, he said and expressed concern over the gap between statements and deeds of leaders of political parties (not BJP). The executive committee meeting assumed significance in the wake of forthcoming assembly elections. After Defence ministers visit, Rajasthan chief minister Bhajan Lal Sharma is expected to visit the state on July 6.
Amid the Kochi Tuskers buzz, can Kerala have another go at IPL?
When the season started this year, the Indian Premier League (IPL) conducted an event called the IPL Fan Park in Kochi. The initiative was aimed at bringing a real-time IPL experience to fans in cities where matches are not held. The event took place in the parking lot of the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, where fans gathered to virtually witness two IPL matches. But things were different 14 years ago. In the fourth season of the IPL, the state had a team of its own. Kochi Tuskers Kerala (KTK), an ill-fated IPL team that got ousted just a year after its induction. In 2010, when two new franchises were introduced in the IPL, a group of bidders came together to form a team representing Kerala. The much-celebrated team boasted a star-studded lineup, including Mahela Jayawardene, Muttiah Muralitharan, Brendon McCullum, V V S Laxman, R P Singh, Ravindra Jadeja and S Sreesanth. Former Kochi Tuskers player Mahela Jayawardene The team played 14 matches in the season, registering six remarkable wins some memorable ones against Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings and eight losses, finishing 8th on the table. The KTK franchise was owned by Kochi Cricket Pvt. Ltd, a consortium including Gujarat-based Rendezvous Sports World, Parinee Developers, Kerala-based Elite Foods, and others. The team had its home ground at the Kaloor international stadium in Kochi. On September 19, 2011, the BCCI announced the expulsion of KTK from the IPL, citing the teams alleged failure to furnish a mandatory bank guarantee of `154 crore. The expulsion triggered a flurry of allegations and controversies, including reported disputes among the owners and money laundering charges against one of them. The issue was a political hot potato as well, with names of MP Shashi Tharoors and his late wife, Sunanda Pushkar, making headlines. Former Kochi Tuskers player Brad Hodge Meanwhile, a legal battle over the expulsion ensued. And its still on. Last month, KTK was back in the news after the Bombay High Court upheld an arbitration order directing BCCI to pay the team `538 crore as compensation. The initial arbitration order, issued in 2015, has asked the BCCI to pay `285.5 crore to Kochi Cricket Pvt. Ltd, and `153.34 crore to Rendezvous Sports World, along with an interest of 18% from the date of termination to the date of the arbitral award. In June, the Bombay High Court rejected two BCCI pleas to quash the order. Now, reports suggest the BCCI may move the Supreme Court to challenge the order. While the case remains far from over, the news rekindled a buzz about an IPL team from Kerala. Especially considering the fact that the state has made impressive strides in domestic cricket in recent times. Former Kochi Tuskers player S Sreesanth Though the state team were runners-up in the last Ranji Trophy and boasts a promising squad, the IPL representation from Kerala has narrowed down to just four players. While star batter Sanju Samson continues to shine with Rajasthan Royals, Kerala captain Sachin Baby and players such as Vishnu Vinod and Vignesh Puthur have seen limited playtime in the league. Having an IPL team from the state will certainly be a huge encouragement for home players. When KTK was introduced, many home players, including myself, got a big opportunity, says former Kerala spinner P Prasanth, who was part of the Tuskers squad. Right now, we have immensely talented players in the state. If we had a team, many of these players would have gotten a break in the IPL. I think we still have a chance. As I remember, the team had put forth a negotiation for re-entering the IPL instead of receiving the compensation amount. Such options of settlement could still be possible. File picture of Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram. Former Kerala skipper Feroze Rasheed, who used to be KTKs local team manager, says the Tuskers had promised immense possibilities for cricket in Kerala. But the current scene does not appear favourable. Chances of another team are slim, he sighs. Cricket in Kerala, he adds, has changed for the better. More youngsters are keen to pursue a career in cricket, notes Feroze, who is currently the coach of Calicut Globstars in Kerala Cricket League (KCL). The KCL platform has also boosted prospects for cricketers in Kerala. An IPL team from Kerala will be one step closer to the dream of every player. Lets hope there will be better days ahead. Former Kerala batter S Manoj, who is now coach of Trivandrum Royals in KCL, terms the KTK fiasco a huge loss. I am not sure if we can make a comeback at this stage. The benefits team presence in IPL could offer to youngsters are invaluable, he says. Even indirect exposure. For instance, teams like Chennai engage a lot of rookies during training. That itself is an opportunity for many to get noted. So, having a team in the IPL will be a game-changer. It would also boost the overall cricket infrastructure in Kerala. Former Kerala keeper-batter Deepak C M, who is now an IPL commentator in Malayalam for Star Sports, echoes the sentiment. He points out that KTK had done pretty well as a debut team. If the team had bot been banned, it would have featured among the top contenders. There were several local players with great potential. Besides Sreesanth, there were five or six Malayali players. Raiphi Vincent Gomez and P Prashanth were among them, recalls Deepak, who is currently the coaching director of KCL team Kochi Blue Tigers. If we get to have another go at IPL, we stand to gain more than we have lost in the last few years. However, the Kerala Cricket Association (KCA) harbours no such hope at least for the near future. Inclusion of another franchise in the IPL may not be in the picture right now. But if we get an opening in the league, Kerala would certainly be keen to take that spot, says KCA president Jayesh George. Former BCCI vice-president and KCA chief T C Mathew concurs. Right now, we do not even have a proper home stadium in the state, he says. The Thiruvananthapuram (Greenfield) stadium is often talked about, but I dont think it is of the quality that would be approved by the BCCI. Also during the last two additions to the IPL, no cities from Kerala were included in the list for consideration. Well, despite the uncertain prospects, Keralas cricket fans continue to hope of having a dashing team from the state in the IPL. Some day. Until then, all eyes will be on the KCL auction on July 5.

Hemant Khandelwal set to become Madhya Pradesh BJP chief; to be elected unopposed
BHOPAL:Second time legislator and former Lok Sabha member from the tribal dominated Betul district Hemant Khandelwal is all set to be the next Madhya Pradesh BJP president. The 60-year-old commerce and law graduate, who is the second time legislator from Betul seat, was the lone leader to file the nomination for the state BJP chiefs election at the state party HQ in Bhopal on Tuesday. Importantly, his nomination papers had as the proposer, the states CM Dr Mohan Yadav himself with whom the seasoned Vaishya community leader is believed to have close rapport. Coming from a family with deep RSS roots (his father Vijay Khandelwal was the BJP MP from Betul LS seat four times between 1996 and 2008) Khandelwal has previously served as the party's Betul district unit chief and also the state partys treasurer. He was currently heading the Kushabhau Thakre Trust. With Khandelwals nomination for the post being the single nomination, he is set to be elected unopposed as the new president of MP BJP. The formal declaration of him succeeding the outgoing state party chief VD Sharma (who was the president for a record five plus years) will be made on Wednesday. Khandelwal will possibly be the second MP BJP president from central MP, after present union agriculture minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, who while being the fifth time MP from central MPs Vidisha seat had headed the saffron partys state organization for 263 days in 2005-06. Following his ascendency as the state BJP chief, he will be the fifth sitting MLA in 45 years to head the saffron party in MP. Prior to him, former CMs Sunderlal Patwa, Kailash Joshi, Nandkumar Sai and present Vidhan Sabha Speaker Narendra Singh Tomar had served as state BJP chiefs while being members of the Vidhan Sabha. This latest development also marks a departure from the 15-year-old trend of sitting MPs (members of Lok Sabha or Rajya Sabha) heading the partys organization in the central Indian state. Prior to him the last four MP BJP presidents, including the outgoing chief VD Sharma and his predecessors Rakesh Singh, Nandkumar Singh Chauhan and Narendra Singh Tomar have all been sitting MPs. The politics behind Khandelwals ascendency as MP BJP chief According to state BJP insiders, the Vaishya community has been the most loyal and traditional voter of the party since the Bhartiya Jana Sangha (BJS) days. But currently the community doesnt have a major decision-making position in the ruling party in MP and adjoining states, including UP, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan. Handing Khadelwal the command of the state BJP will send positive signals to the Vaishya community, whose politician will head the state BJP after 31 years. The last time a politician from the Vaishya community headed the saffron party in MP was Lakhiram Agrawal between 1990-94. Khandelwal not just hails from the Vaishya community, but is also considered to be a leader well connected with grassroot workers. In the last few years, the MP BJPs organization has been working more in a glitzy and five-star cultural manner, where those heading the party have not been as accessible to the workers as in the past. Khandelwals election to state party chiefs post will usher hope of the karyakarta getting empowered back, a state BJP leader told TNIE. Also, Khandelwal is acceptable and enjoys rapport with most senior BJP leaders, including the present CM Dr Mohan Yadav as well as the former CM and present union minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan. According to BJP insiders, when Khandelwal contested the LS by-poll from Betul seat in 2008 (which was necessitated by his four-times MP father Vijay Khandelwals death) then MP CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan addressed more than 100 public meetings, ultimately ensuring Khandelwals win by 35,000-plus votes. It's also believed that the CM Rise School model instituted by then CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan in 2022 was inspired by the Samekit School model of Khandelwal, whose family runs a premier school in Betul and also an agri industrial cluster in the central MP district. As per informed political sources, a senior RSS leader from MP (who enjoys proximity with the top BJP bosses in Delhi), who is believed to have played a key role in Dr Mohan Yadavs ascendency as MP CM in December 2023 might have also been instrumental in Khandelwal being made the new state BJP chief.

IMD issues 'very heavy rainfall' alert across India for coming 6-7 days
NEW DELHI: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Tuesday said very heavy rainfall is expected in Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan over some of the next six to seven days. It said the monsoon will remain active in many parts of northwest, central and east India during this period. Heavy rain is also likely in Madhya Pradesh, Vidarbha, Chhattisgarh, Bihar, West Bengal, Sikkim and Jharkhand. Some days may see heavy showers in Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand and Odisha. The IMD said heavy to very heavy rain may occur at some places in Konkan and Goa, Madhya Maharashtra and Gujarat. Saurashtra and Kutch may also receive heavy rain in the next seven days. Northeast India is likely to get heavy to very heavy rain at isolated places during this period. Coastal Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Kerala and Karnataka may receive heavy rain on some days of the week, it said. The weather department on Monday predicted above-normal rainfall in the country in July and asked authorities and people in central India, Uttarakhand and Haryana to stay alert due to the risk of flooding. It said rainfall is likely to be below normal in large parts of the northeast, many areas of eastern India and extreme southern peninsular India. IMD Director General Mrutyunjay Mohapatra said during an online press briefing that there is a high chance of heavy rainfall in central India and the adjoining southern peninsula. This includes east Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, adjoining areas of Vidarbha and Telangana and parts of Gujarat and Maharashtra. We should monitor the catchment areas of rivers such as the Godavari, Mahanadi and Krishna. Our models show a high probability of above-normal rainfall in the upper Mahanadi catchment, which includes Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh. There are several other rivers in the region. We must closely watch rainfall activity and the water levels in reservoirs, he said. He added that good rainfall is also expected in Uttarakhand and Haryana. This region includes several cities and towns, including Delhi. Many south-flowing rivers originate in Uttarakhand. We must take precautions for all these river catchments, cities and towns, Mohapatra said.

Dhankhar says Governors often treated like easy punching bags in states
NEW DELHI: Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Monday expressed concern over the allegations being levelled against constitutional post holders, particularly governors, in states governed by opposition parties, saying that the governors are often treated like easy punching bags. He also lamented the growing trend of dragging high constitutional positions such as the President and Vice-President into political controversies. Speaking at the Sneh Milan Samaroh organised in Jaipur, Dhankhar remarked, When the Governor is in the state, they are often treated like an easy punching bag. If the state government and the Central government are ruled by different political parties, it becomes very easy to make allegations. The V-P noted that this trend has evolved over time: Now even the Vice-President and the President are being dragged into this domain. Responding to a recent claim by former Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot, who had alleged that several individuals holding constitutional posts were under pressure, Dhankhar categorically stated: I am under no pressure; I do not exert pressure on anyone, nor do I work under pressure. He added that, to his knowledge, even Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla could not be subjected to pressure: I have personally observed that Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla cannot be brought under pressure. I work with him closely. In a lighter vein, Dhankhar said, I was a little concernednot for my healthbut for my friend, the former CM, who said we are under pressure. He is one of my oldest friends in Rajasthan politics and a well-wisher. Since he spoke publicly, I would also like to say publiclyhe need not worry. I am under no pressure, nor do I pressure anyone, nor do I operate under pressure. Expressing unease over the political climate, he said, The current political temperature are not healthyneither for individuals nor for democracy. Dhankhar also stressed the cyclical nature of political power, emphasising that changes in government should not breed enmity. But that does not mean we should become enemies. Our enemies may lie across the bordernot within the country, he said, adding that national interest must transcend political differences. When we go abroad, there is no ruling or opposition party its only Bharat.
Namibian cheetahs first home Kuno records 19 per cent tourist growth in 2024-25
BHOPAL: Tourist arrivals at Madhya Pradeshs Kuno National Park (KNP) the first home of African cheetahs in India have grown by 19% in 2024-25 compared to the previous year. Just a day before the park is closed for tourists as part of the annual July 1-September 30 monsoon closure the KNP management released figures of tourist arrivals spanning between 2019-20 and 2024-25. The figures showed that the tourist inflow at the park grew by 19%, rising from 3,221 travellers in 2023-24 to 3,833 (including 21 foreign tourists) in 2024-25. As part of re-introducing the fastest moving animal on earth into the Indian wilds again seven decades after it went extinct in the Indian forests due to rampant poaching -- 20 African cheetahs (from Namibia and South Africa) were introduced at the KNP in Sheopur district between September 2022 and February 2023. The tourist arrivals at the park which stood at 804 in 2019-20 grew by 12% to 903 in 2020-21. The numbers rose by 34% to 1,211 in 2021-22 and by 20% to 1,459 in 2022-23. The maximum surge in tourist arrivals, however, was reported in 2023-24, after the cheetahs were set free into the free ranging forests of the park located in the Gwalior-Chambal region of MP, Rajasthan. The tourist traffic grew by a massive 121% in 2023-24 to 3,221 tourists compared to the 1,459 total tourist arrivals at the park in 2022-23. The increase continued in 2024-25 also as the tourist arrivals grew by 19% to 3,833 tourists between Oct-June.

The contraband was seized from near the Indo-Pak international border in Barmer of Rajasthan and the nine suspects, including a woman, were arrested from Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, and Jammu and Kashmir during the interstate operation by Amritsar Police Commissionerate. Among the suspects, six have been identified as Gursahib Singh, Jashanpreet Singh, Kulwinder Singh, Parshotam Singh, Gagandeep Singh and Rajinder Kaur, all residents of Amritsar district. Punjab DGP Gaurav Yadav said that this racket was operated by Canada-based Indian smuggler Joban Kaler and notorious Pakistani drug smuggler Tanveer Shah. In a massive crackdown, Amritsar Police Commissionerate, with the support of the BSF and Rajasthan Police, dismantled a major international drug cartel operated by Pakistan-based smuggler Tanveer Shah and Canada-based handler Joban Kaler, recovering a huge consignment of 60.302 kg heroin near the International Border in Barmer, Rajasthan, said Yadav wrote on X. Yadav further added that among those arrested were smugglers and hawala racketeers, and further investigation is underway to expose the entire networks backward and forward links.

Government strengthens cybercrime crackdown as cases surge nationwide
NEW DELHI: With internet usage and online financial transactions rising sharply over the past two years, cybercrime cases involving phishing emails, financial fraud, and ransomware attacks have seen a corresponding surge. Cybercriminals are deploying increasingly sophisticated and evolving techniques to defraud unsuspecting individuals across the globe. These crimes often have cross-border implications, prompting international cooperation among law enforcement agencies, a senior CBI official said. Identifying human error as the primary enabler of cyber fraud, the official noted, Criminals use social engineering tactics to manipulate people into revealing sensitive information. Many individuals are unaware of common scam methods, making them easy targets. Fraudsters exploit emotions such as fear (threats of legal action), excitement (fake lottery wins), or urgency (bogus emergency fund requests). They frequently impersonate trusted sources, including banks, government agencies, and even close friends. Cybercriminals are also exploiting online payment systems through fraudulent UPI requests and QR codes, card skimming, SIM swaps, and scams involving cryptocurrency and fake investment schemes. The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) has regularly issued advisories about ransomware threats. It noted that the dark web has become a marketplace for stolen data, hacking tools, and illegal services. Organised cybercriminal groups now engage in activities such as identity theft, data sales, and Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS). In response to this growing threat, the government has significantly strengthened its cybercrime defence infrastructure. The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C), under the Union Ministry of Home Affairs, has been established and integrated with law enforcement agencies nationwide. Over 50,000 Cyber Commandos have been deployed across police stations, and a dedicated portal has been launched for reporting cybercrime especially cases involving women and children ensuring rapid response by authorities. To further this effort, the CBI has launched Operation Chakra-V, a comprehensive initiative encompassing intelligence gathering, case registration, raids, arrests, and prosecutions targeting cybercriminals. Since the operation's launch earlier this year, the CBI has conducted searches in multiple states including Rajasthan, Delhi, Haryana, Uttarakhand, and Uttar Pradesh focusing on perpetrators of digital arrest scams. The agency is also cracking down on so-called kingpins and individuals involved in the SIM card supply chain, which fuels these crimes. Officials have mapped key cybercrime hotspots beyond traditional centres like Jamtara (Jharkhand) and Nuh (Haryana), identifying new hubs in Kolkata and Purulia (West Bengal), Mumbai (Maharashtra), Mathura (Uttar Pradesh), and Bharatpur and Alwar (Rajasthan). In a major recent crackdown, the CBI arrested nine individuals linked to the operation of approximately 8.5 lakh mule accounts across over 700 bank branches nationwide. These accounts were allegedly used in digital arrest scams and to launder proceeds of cyber fraud. Based on intelligence inputs, coordinated searches were carried out at 42 locations across Rajasthan, Delhi, Uttarakhand, Haryana, Jharkhand, and Uttar Pradesh. A CBI spokesperson said, The mule accounts were being operated by organised cybercriminal networks involved in impersonation, fraudulent advertising, investment frauds, and UPI-based scams. He further noted that these fraudsters often receive assistance from rogue bank officials, agents, intermediaries, and e-Mitras, who help facilitate the opening and use of mule accounts by bypassing Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations and due diligence protocols. Earlier this month, the CBI searched 10 locations across Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Maharashtra, arresting a man in Mumbai accused of supplying pre-activated SIM cards and mule accounts to criminal networks. Last month, in two separate cases, the agency arrested 11 cybercriminals. In the first, six individuals were taken into custody for defrauding Japanese citizens, following raids at 19 sites across Delhi, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh. In the second case, raids were conducted at 42 locations across Assam, West Bengal, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Telangana, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu, resulting in the arrest of five individuals for selling unauthorised SIM cards used in cyber fraud. Since the launch of the financial fraud reporting portal in 2021, over 10 lakh complaints have been registered, helping authorities recover nearly 4,000 crore. Officials at I4C credit this success to the portal's ability to enable immediate reporting and rapid intervention in cases of financial fraud.

Monsoon covers India nine days ahead of schedule; IMD warns of heavy rain, flash flood risk
NEW DELHI: The Southwest Monsoon fully covered the entire nation on June 29, earlier than the normal date of July 8. This marks the fourth-earliest arrival of Southwest Monsoon (SWM) winds across the country in the past 26 years. Last year, the monsoon covered the whole country on July 2. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) reported that the SWM arrived nine days earlier than its typical completion date. Additionally, it reached the country eight days ahead of schedule, on June 1. The IMD also predicted above-normal rainfall for the country, expecting over 108% of the Long Period Average (LPA) from June to September. This increase in rainfall is likely to boost the sowing of Kharif crops and help ease food inflation in the coming months. Data shows that in the last 26 years, the monsoon covered the entire country in June in the years 2013 and 2016 (June 16), 2018 (June 29), and 2005 (June 30). Furthermore, in the past 26 years, there have been four instances when the monsoon coverage dates for Delhi and the entire nation coincided. These occurred in 2020 (June 26), 2018 (June 29), 2015 (June 26), and 2005 (June 30). The IMD stated that the monsoon further advanced into the remaining parts of Rajasthan, West Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and the entire Delhi region on June 29, 2025. It has forecast heavy rainfall activity likely to continue over many parts of Northwest, Central, East, and Northeast India during the next seven days, with isolated extremely heavy falls expected over Jharkhand on June 29 and 30, and Odisha on June 29. The prediction of heavy rainfall may cause a flash flood risk over several watersheds in southern and eastern Himachal Pradesh, across Uttarakhand, and parts of West Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Chandigarh, and Delhi, including the Yamunanagar district, in the next 24 hours. Additionally, the IMD has issued a flash flood warning for North Odisha, southern West Bengal, and adjoining areas of Jharkhand.
It is a known factor that the universal language of music knows no bounds bridging cultures and connecting people from all walks of life. Known for blending Afro-Caribbean rhythms with funk and global grooves, French-Caribbean musician David Walters is an example of this phenomenon, of creating music which resonates with audience from diverse backgrounds. He recently brought it to the city as part of the Fte de la Musique festival, held at Alliance Francaise de Bangalore on Friday, as a part of his Indian tour. I was surprised to receive such a warm welcome from an audience that barely knows me, an audience of all ages, from children as young as three years old to those in their 80s, 20s, and entire families. These are real encounters with the audience baths of joy, he shares. For Walters, music is a deeply emotional process. What inspires me is what I experience. I draw from lived experiences moments of love, loss, melancholy, joy, and rebirth. My deepest inspirations come from these emotions they are numerous and infinite, he shares. This philosophy is reflected in his aim to bring along and blend global influences in music. Caribbean rhythms are naturally part of me they are in my DNA and when I combine them with global influences, like Indian folk or soul from the 70s, it becomes a fusion of emotions and experiences, Walters notes. Collaboration and cultural exchange are central to Walters process. Ive worked with artistes like Seun Kuti, Flavia Coelho, Keziah Jones, and many others all born out of real human encounters, he says. His recent collaboration with Indian classical musicians, including Rajasthan Roots, has been a revelation. Indian music carries immense depth, tradition, and learning. Working with them has taken me out of my comfort zone in the best way, he adds. For Walters, live performance is more than just entertainment; its a way to heal and connect with others. Music for me is more than sound; its a space of expression and healing. And dance helps us heal, it cares and uplifts us just like music. They are not opposed but complementary, he emphasises, adding, Also, I like to leave space for the musicians I play with to express themselves. The voice may be the first instrument, but I believe that instruments, silence, and emotion also speak deeply. That honesty on stage is what allows for a real connection. Currently touring around the nation with an aim to engage in intimate musical residencies with local folk musicians, Walters hints at potential collaborations with more Indian musicians. I do hope to stay longer in India someday to record with Indian musicians theres a soulful connection between India and the Caribbean, not just musically but culturally too, especially considering the Indian diaspora in the Caribbean since colonial times, he concludes.

Raipur Diary: Solar-powered coal mining gets a push
Solar-powered coal mining gets a push The Parsa East and Kanta Basan (PEKB) coal mine, operated by the Rajasthan Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam Ltd in Ambikapur district, about 330 km north of Raipur, has taken a significant step towards sustainable mining with the operationalisation of a 9-MW solar power plant.

The government cited Hindi as a convenient language to understand, saying this will make policing communicative, accessible and transparent. On a directive by the state home department, the DGP has issued a letter to all district police chiefs asking them to change traditional Urdu and Persian words that were in use in police functioning with simpler Hindi words.

DEHRADUN: A devastating accident unfolded on Thursday morning in Uttarakhands Rudraprayag district when a Tempo Traveller carrying a family of pilgrims from Udaipur, Rajasthan, lost control and plunged into the Alaknanda River.

Eight injured have been airlifted to AIIMS Rishikesh for treatment. Eyewitnesses described the harrowing moments as the vehicle plunged into the river.

The fate of the remaining passengers remains uncertain, with fears that many were swept away by the rivers treacherous currents. In a grim discovery, one body was found approximately 8 kilometres downstream at Shivpuri, highlighting the force of the river. SDRF Sub-Inspector Jagmohan Singh stated, We are intensifying the search operation in the Alaknanda with assistance from police and local administration teams. However, the challenging terrain and strong currents are hampering our efforts. The search operation continued late into the night, with SDRF teams working tirelessly to locate the submerged vehicle and the missing pilgrims. The tragedy has sent shockwaves through the local and pilgrim communities, and authorities are providing support to the bereaved families.

The survivor was rushed to hospital in critical condition. In Chamoli district, two men Ankush Chauhan (32) and Pradeep Negi (33) died after their car fell into a gorge in the remote Niti Valley. Elsewhere, on the Rishikesh-Badrinath Highway, a collision between a bus and a car injured three members of a family from Delhi: Ajeet Singh (41), his wife Usha Rani (41), and daughter Kanak (16). They were treated at the Community Health Centre in Pali. Police have launched investigations into the causes of the accidents, which have underscored the dangers of travel on Uttarakhands often treacherous mountain roads.
JAIPUR: Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Thursday launched a scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for observing Samvidhan Hatya Diwas across the country to mark the anniversary of the Emergency, alleging that the saffron party had illegally toppled governments in Congress-ruled states. Speaking to the media in Jodhpur, Gehlot alleged that senior BJP leaders including Union Home Minister Amit Shah had conspired to topple his government and had engaged in horse-trading by distributing huge sums of money to MLAs. Amit Shah, Dharmendra Pradhan and Gajendra Singh Shekhawat in the Narendra Modi government conspired to topple the Rajasthan government, but failed. Ours was the only government in the country that they could not overthrow, Gehlot said. He further stated, They changed governments in Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra, but could not do so in Rajasthan. These people tried to break our party and distributed money to MLAs. I have proof of this. The situation they created is this in line with the Constitution? Today, these people are celebrating Constitution Day. Referring to the scale of the alleged horse-trading, the former Chief Minister said, You cant imagine how much money was distributed to buy MLAs in Maharashtra, Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh. Some claim Rs 25 crore, others Rs 35 crore, and some Rs 50 crore. In the case of Maharashtra, one can only imagine the sums. Where is the country headed? How can democracy survive like this? BJP undermining Constitution, democracy: Ashok Gehlot Gehlots remarks have triggered varied interpretations within political circles. Some experts speculate Gehlot's statements are indirectly aimed at his former deputy and political rival within the party, Sachin Pilot. Pilot had staged a rebellion and shifted to Manesar with supporting MLAs during Gehlots tenure. Since then, Gehlot has consistently accused both the BJP and Pilot of plotting to topple his government. Pilot has recently become active in state politics and held a show of strength on the 25th death anniversary of his father, Rajesh Pilot an event attended by Gehlot himself. In the wake of these developments, many are drawing different meanings from Gehlots latest statement. Gehlot has been making headline-grabbing remarks over the past two days. On Wednesday, he claimed that a terrible conspiracy was underway to remove Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma from office, allegedly by some within the BJP. Responding sharply to this, CM Sharma said, Those who have never felt the pain of the common man cant understand the pain of others. Taking a jibe at the former CM, Sharma added, How can someone who has never suffered, understand the struggles of others? Gehlot warns of conspiracy to remove Rajasthan CM, sparks political storm

BJP undermining Constitution, democracy: Ashok Gehlot
JAIPUR: Former Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot launched a sharp attack on the BJP on Thursday, accusing the ruling party at the Centre of undermining the Constitution and democracy in the country. Calling the current situation an undeclared emergency, the veteran Congress leader said the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) actions reflect a systematic erosion of democratic values over the last 11 years. In a post on X, he said, It is ironic that BJP governments are observing 'Constitution Murder Day'. It is like a dishonest person giving lectures on honesty. Gehlot alleged that civil liberties, freedom of the press and opposition voices are being stifled in the country. The current situation in India can be described in just two words -- 'undeclared emergency'. The Constitution may not have been suspended nor has the President made any formal declaration, but efforts to suppress people's rights, freedom of expression, and the voice of the opposition are ongoing, he said. 11 , Ashok Gehlot (@ashokgehlot51) June 26, 2025 Gehlot accused the BJP-led Centre of using probe agencies like the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against opposition leaders and of criminalising dissent. A journalist asking questions is branded anti-national, a protesting student is called a terrorist, and an opposition leader is targeted by the ED. Is this the new model of democracy under the BJP? he questioned. Citing cases against journalists like Siddique Kappan and raids on media houses, including NDTV, Dainik Bhaskar, BBC and NewsClick, the Congress leader said, If this is not strangulation of press freedom, then what is? He also compared the present situation with the Emergency period (1975 to 1977), claiming that even then, no chief ministers were jailed or parliament memberships cancelled. But under the BJP, the Chief Ministers of Jharkhand and Delhi were imprisoned, and Rahul Gandhi's MP membership was revoked, he said. Gehlot alleged that governments were toppled through horse-trading in several states, including Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Arunachal Pradesh, Goa and Manipur. The BJP has stolen public mandate by buying MLAs, he said. He further claimed that surveillance and phone-tapping have become routine. Even couples are afraid to speak on normal calls and prefer FaceTime or WhatsApp due to fear of being overheard, he said. On the issue of federalism, Gehlot accused the Centre of bypassing states. The constitutional principle of division of powers is not being respected. The central government is imposing laws even on subjects in the state list, and governors are interfering in states run by opposition parties, he said. We will not fear. We will not bow down. We will continue to fight to protect the Constitution, democracy, and the voice of the people, the Congress leader asserted.
