Trinamool Congress spokesperson Sushmita Dev said that the Railways, which serves as a primary mode of travel for millions, is no longer safe. Offering her condolences to the bereaved families and expressing solidarity with the injured in a post on X, Ms. Dev said, âRailway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, the blue-eyed boy of @PMOIndia, is costing us lives!â Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge also slammed the two leaders in a post on X. âPM @narendramodi and his Railway Minister, who leave no opportunity for self-publicity, must take direct responsibility of the massive lapses that have plagued the Indian Railways,â he said, noting that just a month ago, 11 people had died when a goods train collided with the Sealdah-Agartala Kanchanjunga Express. He demanded the expeditious installation of the Kavach anti-collision system on all rail routes across India to prevent such accidents.

Itâs the third such encounter with militants in the past three days in the district. Four security personnel were killed on Monday in Dodaâs Dessa area in a militant attack. Members of the village defence group engaged a group of militants in a firefight on Tuesday. The heightened militancy in the past two months have left 24 people dead in the Jammu province, which include 10 security personnel. A massive search operation was launched in Desa and adjoining forest areas following the killing of four army personnel, including a captain, by terrorists in a firefight on the intervening night of Monday and Tuesday. The operation entered fourth day on Thursday and also witnessed brief exchange of fire at two places in Desa forests on the intervening night of Tuesday and Wednesday.

Puja Khedkarâs mother remanded in police custody till July 20 in land dispute case A court in Maharashtraâs Pune district on July 18 remanded Manorama Khedkar, mother of IAS probationer Puja Khedkar, in police custody till July 20 after she was arrested for allegedly threatening some persons with a gun over a land dispute. Manorama was apprehended from a lodge in Mahad in Raigad district in the morning. She was hiding there, police said. Manorama was then brought to the Paud police station in Pune district and placed under arrest. She was produced before a local court which remanded her in police custody till July 20, said an official. Police had launched a search for Manorama and her husband Dilip Khedkar after a video surfaced showing her allegedly threatening some persons with a gun over a land dispute at Dhadwali village in Puneâs Mulshi tehsil. The Paud police in Pune rural have booked the Khedkar couple and five others under the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS) sections, including 323 (dishonest or fraudulent removal or concealment of property), and the Arms Act. âManorama Khedkar was apprehended from Mahad in Raigad district and she was brought to Paud where, after the completion of formalities, she was placed under arrest,â Superintendent of Police, Pune Rural, Pankaj Deshmukh, had said earlier. Puja Khedkar is under scrutiny for her claims regarding disability and Other Backward Class (OBC) certificates in her Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) candidature, as well as her conduct during her tenure at the Pune collectorâs office. Amid the row, the government on Tuesday put on hold the âdistrict training programâ of Puja Khedkar, who was earlier transferred to Washim as a supernumerary assistant collector from Pune, as she was summoned back to the Mussoorie-based Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration for ânecessary actionâ. The Pune Anti-Corruption Bureau unit has received a complaint seeking an open inquiry against Puja Khedkarâs father Dilip Khedkar, a retired government official, in connection with alleged disproportionate assets, a senior official said on Wednesday. There is already an inquiry underway by the ACBâs Nashik division against him into the alleged disproportionate assets. Hence, the Pune unit of the anti-graft agency has sought directions from the ACB headquarters to either incorporate the fresh complaint into the ongoing probe or whether to conduct a separate open inquiry, the official said. ED coercing those questioned in Valmiki Corporation scam to name CM and DCM, allege Karnataka Ministers The Directorate of Enforcement (ED) is coercing those arrested and questioned in connection with the alleged Maharshi Valmiki Scheduled Tribes Development Corporation scam to name senior functionaries of the government of Karnataka, including the Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister, in a bid to destabilise the Congress government in the State, alleged Revenue Minister Krishna Byre Gowda. He made this allegation at a media conference hosted jointly by five senior Ministers of the government of Karnataka on July 18 before the legislature convened for the ongoing session. Other ministers at the media conference were K.J. George, Priyank Kharge, Dinesh Gundu Rao and Santosh Lad. On July 17, the ED had claimed that â¹90 crore was diverted from the corporation, and a part of the money was used to buy a âsignificant quantity of liquor just before the general electionsâ. It claimed that money from the corporation was diverted to 18 bank accounts in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, and later laundered into several bank accounts. Health and Family Welfare Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao alleged, âThe ED has entered the probe, not with an intention to get to the truth, but with a malafide intention to destabilise the Congress government in Karnataka. The agency is coercing those it has questioned to name senior functionaries of the State Government, asking them to say the money was used for election expenditure in Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and in Ballari in Karnataka. We have reliably learnt that suspects have been assured of protection by the agency if they name big people, but they have also been threatened that if they donât, they will attract the full wrath of the agency.â âWe are here to tell the people of Karnataka and the country what the ED is up to. ED is no longer acting as an investigative wing of the Union Government, but as a political wing of the BJP.â Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Minister Priyank Kharge said that the reputation of the ED is well-known. âIn the last 10 years, ED has raided 121 politicians, of which 115 are from the opposition. Of this, less than 25% of cases have gone for prosecution. The ED, that has come to probe the Valmiki Corporation case, did not show interest in any scam during the BJP tenure in Karnataka. A former MLC of the BJP has been arrested for misappropriation of funds in D. Devaraj Urs Truck Terminal. Scams were reported at Bhovi Development Corporation, in the APMC, and Karnataka Handloom Corporation, among others. Why hasnât the ED shown similar interest in any of these cases?â Kharge said.

Justice Mahadevan was the Acting Chief Justice of the High Court of Madras. He belongs to the backward community in Tamil Nadu and the Collegium resolution had said his appointment to the top court would usher in diversity in the Bench. The Collegium said Justice Mahadevan was âeminently suitableâ for appointment as a Supreme Court judge. âThe Collegium has taken due note of the fact that Mr. Justice R. Mahadevan ranks third in the order of presently serving judges of the Madras High Court including the judges who have been posted as Chief Justices outside the Madras High Court. At this stage, the Collegium has given precedence to the candidature of Mr Justice R Mahadevan in order to give representation to the backward community,â the Collegium resolution had explained. The Collegium has recently recommended Justice K R Shriram, a senior Judge of the Bombay High Court, for appointment as Madras High Court Chief Justice.
