'SP link emerges in 90 pc of crimes': UP Minister on Jaunpur murder

Digital Desk | Lucknow, Sep 13 (IANS) Uttar Pradesh Minister Anil Rajbhar on Sunday launched a sharp attack on the Samajwadi Party (SP) over the murder of a 22-year-old man in Jaunpur, after the victim's family accused a local SP MLA of shielding the prime accused, saying that whenever a crime takes place anywhere in the state, an SP connection is revealed in most cases. Vishal Yadav, a 22-year-old resident of Jaunpur, was allegedly brutally beaten to death with iron rods and sticks in broad daylight at the Ramdayalganj market in the district on September 11, 2026. The incident has sparked a major political controversy, with Vishal's family accusing Samajwadi Party MLA Lucky Yadav of protecting the alleged prime accused, Manish Yadav. Speaking to IANS, Rajbhar said, In the Vishal Yadav murder case, the victim's family has filed a serious complaint against the local SP MLA. The government will ensure strict action against the culprits by conducting an impartial investigation into the entire matter. Whenever a crime is committed in the state, an SP connection surfaces in 90 per cent of the cases, he said. Rajbhar said the state government had adopted a clear policy of taking strict action not only against those involved in criminal activities but also against individuals accused of providing protection or shelter to criminals. Action in such cases should be taken that sets an example for the future. The allegations made by Vishal Yadav's family will also be investigated seriously, he said. The minister further said that the government would continue taking action in the matter until the victim's family was completely satisfied with the steps taken by the authorities. The murder took place on September 11 when Vishal Yadav was returning home on a motorcycle along with his friend Sandeep after visiting a salon. According to the officials, a group of attackers intercepted the two at the Ramdayalganj market and knocked them off the motorcycle before allegedly launching a brutal assault on Vishal with iron rods and batons. Vishal sustained severe injuries in the attack and later died, triggering anger among his family members and residents. Following the incident, Vishal's family staged a protest by placing his body on the Jaunpur-Mirzapur highway, demanding action against those responsible for his death. Police have registered an FIR against 28 named accused and 50 unidentified individuals in connection with the murder. The investigation into the circumstances surrounding the attack and the allegations levelled by the victim's family is underway. Vishal, who was the sole support for his family, used to earn a living by driving a trailer in Gujarat.

Noida DM moves SC against Allahabad HC order over student's NSA detention

Gautam Buddh Nagar district magistrate Medha Roopam has moved the Supreme Court against an Allahabad High Court order which directed that a compensation amount of Rs 5 lakh be deducted from her salary over the detention of a student under the National Security Act during the Noida workers' protest in April. On September 2, the high court quashed the detention of Akriti Chaudhary, a 25-year-old Delhi University history graduate, who was taken into custody under the National Security Act in connection with the Noida workers' protest in April. Allowing Chaudhary's habeas corpus petition challenging her arrest, the high court found that the detention was based on a story concocted by the state and directed her immediate release if her arrest was not warranted in any other case. It had strongly criticised the manner in which the detention order was passed by Roopam and warned that continued despotic conduct by errant bureaucracy could reduce Uttar Pradesh to an Orwellian dystopia.

Indian Railways freight loading rises 5.4 pc in August, passenger traffic also sees strong growth

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 13 (IANS) Indian Railways recorded a 5.4 per cent year-on-year increase in freight loading in August 2026, while passenger traffic also grew during the month, reflecting sustained demand for rail-based transportation across the country, according to the Ministry of Railways on Sunday. The national transporter loaded 137.9 million tonnes of freight in August 2026, compared with 130.9 million tonnes in the same month last year. Freight revenue also increased by 6.27 per cent year-on-year during the month. The growth in freight movement was supported by higher loading of several key commodities. Iron ore loading rose 12.1 per cent, followed by clinker at 10.4 per cent, domestic containers at 9.2 per cent and coal at 6 per cent. Finished steel loading increased 4.9 per cent, while mineral oil and fertilizers recorded growth of 3.1 per cent and 1.6 per cent, respectively. Loading of other goods increased 8.2 per cent. The increase in freight movement is expected to strengthen rail-based supply chains for industries and improve the movement of essential commodities, raw materials and finished goods across regions. The railway network also expanded its freight-handling infrastructure during the month with the commissioning of five new Gati Shakti Cargo Terminals (GCTs). The new terminals are located at Shivlakha in Gujarat, Nalli in Tamil Nadu, Shaktinagar in Uttar Pradesh, Deoragram in Madhya Pradesh and Brajrajnagar in Odisha. With these additions, the cumulative number of commissioned Gati Shakti Cargo Terminals reached 149 as of August 31, 2026. The terminals are aimed at bringing freight-handling facilities closer to production and consumption centres and improving the efficiency of cargo movement. On the passenger side, Indian Railways carried 67.27 crore passengers in August 2026, compared with 64.43 crore in August 2025. Suburban passenger traffic registered particularly strong growth of 9.02 per cent, rising to 38.01 crore passengers from 34.89 crore a year earlier. Indian Railways also expanded regular passenger connectivity during August by regularising 14 Amrit Bharat services, taking the total number of Amrit Bharat services to 86. The regularised services include routes such as Subedarganj-Lokmanya Tilak Terminus, Gorakhpur-Bandra Terminus, Gorakhpur-Delhi Jn, Ahmedabad-Bhagalpur, Lokmanya Tilak Terminus-Prayagraj Jn, Prayagraj Jn-Udhna Jn and Dhanbad-Coimbatore.
