Andhra Pradesh, July15,2025

In a tragic incident from Bobbili town in Andhra Pradesh, a 14-year-old Class 9 student died after a scuffle with a classmate moments after school got over. The boy, identified as Sundarada Karthik, reportedly got into a fight near the Bobbili Fort, where he was punched by his classmate, collapsed, and later succumbed to his injuries at the hospital.

According to police sources, Karthik, a resident of Ravu Gari Street and a student of Class 9, frequently argued with a fellow classmate over petty issues. Their rivalry had been escalating for some time.

On Monday, just after the school had closed for the day, the two boys reportedly encountered each other again near the Bobbili Fort. According to eyewitness accounts and police reports, Karthik allegedly provoked his classmate and challenged him to a fight. The argument quickly turned physical. During the altercation, the other boy is said to have punched Karthik, who fell unconscious on the spot.

He was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital, but doctors declared him dead on arrival.

The incident has shocked the local community and raised concerns about rising aggression among schoolchildren. Police are investigating the matter and questioning witnesses to determine the exact sequence of events.

Nimisha’s case has drawn widespread attention and emotional appeals from across India and the global Indian community. The postponement has brought a moment of hope for her family, well-wishers, and the many people who have been campaigning tirelessly for her life to be spared.

Odisha, July15,2025

Bhubaneswar, Odisha – A college student who had attempted suicide after alleging inaction on her sexual harassment complaint has died while undergoing treatment at AIIMS Bhubaneswar.

The student had accused the Head of Department at Fakir Mohan College in Balasore of sexually harassing her. She took the drastic step on Saturday, allegedly due to frustration over the lack of appropriate action on her complaint. Following the attempt, she was admitted in critical condition to AIIMS Bhubaneswar, where she later passed away.

The student’s father has now come forward with serious allegations against the internal inquiry committee, claiming that their mishandling and a deliberately misleading report forced his daughter into taking her own life.

Speaking to the media, he said, “We are seeking justice. Merely arresting two individuals won’t suffice. My daughter was mentally tortured and pushed to the edge. The internal committee members are equally responsible. I request the government to take the strictest possible action against them.”

The case has sparked widespread outrage and calls for a thorough and transparent investigation into how the college handled the complaint and whether the internal committee was complicit in suppressing the matter.

As the family mourns their irreparable loss, voices demanding accountability grow louder, raising critical questions about institutional response to sexual harassment complaints in educational institutions.

Odisha, July 14,2025

In a shocking development from Balasore, Odisha, the principal of Fakir Mohan College, Dilip Kumar Ghosh, has been arrested by Sahadevkhunta Police following a student’s suicide attempt on campus.

The arrest comes after a female student of the college allegedly attempted suicide on Saturday, accusing a faculty member of sexual harassment. The student is currently in critical condition and receiving treatment at AIIMS Bhubaneswar.

Confirming the arrest, Balasore Superintendent of Police, Raj Prasad, told BBC that the principal was taken into custody for his alleged negligence in handling the student’s repeated complaints.

According to the victim’s family, the girl had been subjected to ongoing sexual harassment for several months. Despite lodging a formal complaint with the college authorities, no meaningful action was taken. Frustrated and distressed by the college’s inaction, the student reportedly attempted to take her own life.

The family had been demanding the arrest of the principal, alleging that he failed to take timely and appropriate action. They also accused the college’s internal inquiry committee of trying to protect the accused teacher, instead of supporting the victim.

Earlier, the police had arrested the Head of the Department (HoD) of the Education Department, Sameer Kumar Sahu, who is the prime accused in the sexual harassment case.

On Sunday, Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi addressed the issue, stating,

“An investigation is underway to understand the full circumstances of the incident. The government will ensure strict action is taken against those responsible.”

The incident has sparked widespread outrage, highlighting the urgent need for stricter enforcement of sexual harassment protocols within educational institutions.

A Heartfelt Environmental and Literary Initiative by Sampark Sansthan Receives Overwhelming Response at Gyan Vihar School Campus Jaipur.

The joint initiative of Sampark Sansthan and Gyan Vihar School, titled ‘Ek Ped – Sampark Ke Naam’, along with an environmental poetry recital, turned out to be a meaningful confluence of ecological awareness and literary sensibility. Students, teachers, poets, and social workers participated in the event with deep enthusiasm and emotional engagement.

Welcoming everyone, Sampark Sansthan President Anil Ladha remarked,
“This is not just an event, it’s an attempt to connect life and society through tree plantation. We want every individual to nurture a tree as lovingly as they would nurture a relationship.”

Dr. Ritvij Gaur (Principal), present as a special guest, emphasized in his speech,
“Trees are the foundation of our culture and survival. Teaching children to emotionally connect with nature through tree planting is the need of the hour.”

Sampark Sansthan General Secretary and Coordinator Renu ‘Shabdmukhar’ touched hearts with her words,
“This initiative aims to instill in students a sense of responsibility and the spirit of coexisting with trees. When nature and poetry walk together, society becomes truly awakened.”

Veteran poet Prof. Prabodh Govil inspired the audience, stating,
“Literature and environment are both profound sources of human sensitivity.”

Renowned writer Dr. Jayshree Sharma added,
“Trees don’t just give us oxygen, they teach us life values. A poem, a plant, and a thought — these can together change the world.”

Inspiring the young generation, senior poet Anshu Harsh quoted,
“When you walk ahead, many will follow.”

Usha Rastogi’s positive presence brought an energetic vibe to the event.

Program Coordinator Himadri Samarth expressed that,
“No matter what name we give to the campaign, the aim remains the same – to protect the environment.”
He concluded by thanking all the distinguished guests for their participation and support.

The event was beautifully hosted by Seema Walia, whose graceful voice, articulate language, and emotional tone left a lasting impact on everyone present.

The active participation of Gyan Vihar students made the event truly vibrant. When tiny hands touched the soil and planted saplings, it was more than an activity — it became a symbol of emotional bonding with nature.

Students like Charul, along with senior poets — Dr. Neelam Kalra, Renu Shabdmukhar, Himadri, Dr. Kanchana Saxena, Sonal Sharma, Dr. Anju Saxena, Avinash Joshi, Dr. Punita Soni, Kavita Mathur, S.

Colombo/Jaipur, July 14,2025
In a vibrant celebration of artistic expression and cultural wisdom, Indian artist Dr. Renu Shahi has drawn deep admiration for her spiritually inspired paintings at an international art exhibition titled “Uncharted”, held at the Curado Art Space in Colombo, Sri Lanka.

Organized by the Rainbow Art Group, New Delhi, this cross-border exhibition featured 49 contemporary artists from six countries, each offering their unique visual interpretations. Amid this diversity, Dr. Shahi’s works stood out — not only for their aesthetic depth but also for their philosophical grounding.

Her three paintings, inspired by verses from the Bhagavad Gita, revolved around the three fundamental qualities of human nature: Sattva (purity), Rajas (passion), and Tamas (inertia). Through rich symbolic imagery and subtle layering, she represented these gunas not merely as abstract ideas, but as divine forces shaping the human experience. Each artwork intertwined color, mythology, and introspection into a single visual meditation.

The exhibition, which ran from July 4th to 10th, was inaugurated by Shanila Alles, Director of Curado Art Space, and curated by Virendra Kumar, the visionary founder of Rainbow Art Group. The group’s mission is to highlight artists who explore Indian culture, spirituality, and heritage through their canvas, offering them a global stage to be seen and heard.

“For us, art is a language that speaks beyond words,” said Kumar. “It transcends geography and unites minds — whether you’re from Jaipur or Jakarta.”

Alongside Dr. Shahi, notable artists such as Banita Rani Singh, Bhaskar Ghosh, Dr. Chetna Agarwal, Manju Saad, Manoj Chakravarty, and Nayana Mevada, among others, showcased their works. Artists hailed not just from India but also from Nepal, Sri Lanka, Qatar, Indonesia, and Belarus. Each piece was a window into the artist’s soul — and some of those windows were so captivating that a few artworks were sold, a testament to the audience’s deep connection with the themes.

Rainbow Art Group has, over the years, emerged as a powerful platform nurturing both emerging and established talent. Its exhibitions reflect a belief that “art needs no passport — it is the purest dialogue between cultures.”

Dr. Renu Shahi’s series served not just as paintings, but as philosophical experiences — introducing Sri Lankan viewers to the timeless teachings of Indian scriptures, not through sermons, but through strokes of color, layers of thought, and a visual silence that speaks louder than words.

New Delhi, July14,2025

The life of Indian nurse Nimisha Priya, who has been sentenced to death in Yemen, hangs by a thread. With the execution scheduled for July 16, her family and well-wishers are making desperate last-minute efforts to save her.

Today, the Supreme Court of India will hear a critical petition filed by the Save Nimisha Priya International Action Council, urging the Indian government to step in diplomatically and prevent her execution. The matter will be taken up by a bench comprising Justice Vikram Nath and Justice Sandeep Mehta.

What is Nimisha Priya Accused Of?

According to Yemeni court documents, Nimisha, who has been living in Yemen since 2008, was accused of murdering her business partner Talal Abdo Mahdi. Reports allege that after the murder, she, along with another nurse, dismembered his body and disposed of the remains in a water tank.

However, Nimisha’s family strongly denies the murder charges. They claim that Nimisha did not intend to kill Talal. According to them, she only administered an injection to render him unconscious so she could retrieve her confiscated passport. Tragically, due to an overdose, he died — making it an accidental death, not murder.

Pleas for Mercy Rejected

In a heartbreaking turn of events, Nimisha had earlier filed an appeal against the death sentence in Yemen’s Supreme Court, but it was rejected. She also made a mercy plea to the President of Yemen, which too was denied.

A Mother’s Last Hope

Nimisha’s family has made multiple appeals for help — reaching out to both Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and the central government. CM Vijayan personally wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, urging him to intervene and use all diplomatic channels possible to halt Nimisha’s execution.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has stated that it is doing all it can to provide support to Nimisha’s family and is in touch with relevant authorities.

Why This Case Matters

This is not just a legal case; it’s a human story of desperation, fear, and a plea for compassion. A mother, a nurse, an Indian citizen – Nimisha Priya is facing death in a foreign land. Her family is fighting to give her a second chance, hoping that diplomacy and humanity will prevail where legal appeals have failed.

As the clock ticks towards July 16, all eyes are now on the Supreme Court of India and the Indian government — will they act in time to stop the execution and bring Nimisha home alive?

After the shocking exposure of a large-scale religious conversion racket in Uttar Pradesh run by Chhangur Baba, also known as Jalaluddin, yet another disturbing development has emerged. Several young women who were rescued from his grip and chose to return to their original faith are now allegedly receiving threats — not from local elements, but from across the border in Pakistan. This disturbing twist has put national security agencies on high alert.

What Is the Case About?

Chhangur Baba was arrested by the Uttar Pradesh ATS for running a highly organized conversion racket. He allegedly manipulated and coerced innocent young women into changing their religion. Reports suggest that more than 1,500 girls may have been targeted. Investigations have further revealed possible foreign funding and digital support behind this syndicate.

Now, in a chilling turn, some of the rescued girls’ families claim they’re receiving threatening messages, WhatsApp calls, and videos warning them against “ghar wapsi” — a return to their original religion. Shockingly, many of these threats are suspected to be coming from Pakistan.

Is This Just a Crime — or a Global Conspiracy?

Security experts believe this is no longer just a criminal case. The scale, planning, and international connections indicate a deeper, more dangerous plot. Sources point to extremist groups and digital networks based in Pakistan as potential backers of these threats.

The ATS, along with cybercrime units and intelligence agencies, is now actively tracking the origin of these threats and investigating digital footprints that might lead to cross-border involvement.

Government and Agencies Respond Swiftly

• Girls rescued from the racket have been moved to undisclosed safe locations.
• Cybersecurity experts are analyzing call records, tracking IPs, and monitoring digital channels.
• The state government has ordered a high-level security review for the affected families.

Voices from the Victims’ Families: “We Are Still Living in Fear”

One victim’s brother told the media:

“My sister was brainwashed and forcibly converted. But when she gathered the courage to return to her faith, she got a call — from a Pakistani number — saying she won’t be spared. We are terrified. Even now, we don’t feel safe.”

Our Question: Can a Bulldozer Erase a Mindset?

While the authorities may have demolished Chhangur Baba’s palatial mansion, can demolishing buildings alone put an end to such poisonous ideologies?

Unless the international roots of these syndicates are cut off and mental rehabilitation efforts are made for vulnerable youth, the mindsets that fuel such networks will survive — and resurface.

High above Earth, floating in the vast silence of space, Dr. Shubhanshu Shukla has spent several weeks aboard the International Space Station (ISS). Now, he’s preparing to return home — marking the end of a remarkable journey that made him the first Indian in 41 years to travel to space.

Dr. Shukla was part of a critical international scientific mission, where his work focused on groundbreaking experiments that could impact not only the future of space exploration but also medical and biological research back on Earth.

His spacecraft is scheduled to undock from the ISS today, and if everything goes as planned, he is expected to land safely on the morning of July 15 after a 23-hour return journey.

What Did Dr. Shukla Achieve in Space?

Though the mission was global in nature, Dr. Shukla’s experiments were deeply rooted in Indian scientific priorities. Here’s what he focused on during his time in space:

Microgravity and the Human Body:

Dr. Shukla studied how microgravity affects muscles, bones, and human cells — vital knowledge for future deep-space missions, including potential journeys to Mars.

Testing Advanced Medicines:

In collaboration with Indian medical research institutions, he tested how cutting-edge drugs respond to the unique conditions of space. These findings may lead to more effective treatments for chronic illnesses on Earth.

Adaptability of Indian Biological Systems:

He also explored how Indian-origin plants, microbes, and cells adapt in space. These insights are key to building self-sustaining space stations in the future.

Writing a New Chapter, 41 Years Later

In 1984, Wing Commander Rakesh Sharma became the first Indian to travel to space and famously said, “Sare Jahan Se Achha,” when asked how India looked from above. That moment became immortal in Indian space history. Now, Dr. Shubhanshu Shukla has extended that legacy — not by repeating it, but by adding a bold new chapter.

His mission is not just a personal milestone — it’s a symbol of India’s rising capabilities in science, innovation, and space exploration. It’s a reminder that India is not just participating in the global space race — it’s helping shape it.

India Waits to Welcome a Hero

As the countdown to his return ticks down, excitement is growing — among his family, fellow scientists, students, and millions of Indians across the country. They’re not just waiting to welcome back a scientist — they’re preparing to celebrate a national hero who went beyond the Earth to search for answers that could change it.

Dr. Shukla’s journey was never just about going to space. It’s about inspiring generations to dream bigger, aim higher, and believe that even the sky is not the limit.

Imagine this — you walk into a government canteen for your morning chai and samosa, and right next to it is a bold warning sign: “Loaded with trans fat and sugar – consume with caution!” No, it’s not a scene from a health documentary — this is soon to be reality in India’s top public institutions.

In a bold move to tackle India’s rising obesity crisis, the Ministry of Health has issued an internal advisory recommending the display of “Oil and Sugar Boards” across cafeterias and dining areas in all central institutions — including AIIMS Nagpur. These boards will clearly state the hidden fat and sugar content in popular Indian snacks like samosas, jalebis, laddoos, vada pav, and even biscuits.

Junk Food: The New Tobacco?

According to health experts, this is a significant shift in India’s approach to food awareness — equating junk food’s health risks with those of tobacco. “This is just the beginning of a future where food labeling becomes as serious as cigarette warnings,” said Dr. Amar Aamle, President of the Cardiological Society of India’s Nagpur chapter. “Sugar and trans fats are the new tobacco. People have a right to know what they are eating.”

The advisory aims to quietly but powerfully inform citizens about the nutritional risks of their beloved snacks, which are often deeply rooted in cultural habits but packed with unhealthy ingredients.

The Numbers Are Alarming

An internal document from the Health Ministry reveals a sobering prediction: by 2050, India could have 449 million people suffering from obesity or being overweight — second only to the United States. Currently, one in five urban adults in India is overweight. The situation is even more concerning among children, with poor dietary habits and lack of physical activity contributing to a surge in childhood obesity.

‘Not a Ban — But an Informed Choice’

“This is not about banning foods,” clarifies Dr. Sunil Gupta, a senior diabetologist. “But if someone knows that a single gulab jamun contains the equivalent of five teaspoons of sugar, they may think twice before reaching for a second.” Health experts believe this initiative is part of a broader campaign to combat non-communicable diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease — all of which are directly linked to poor dietary choices.

Nagpur will be among the first cities to implement this model. Rather than restricting food items, institutions will display brightly colored indicators with messages like:
“Eat Smart – Your Future Body Will Thank You.”

The Cultural Wake-Up Call

This move isn’t just about calories and fat grams — it’s a cultural wake-up call. India’s traditional snacks, often seen as symbols of warmth and festivity, are now under the scanner for their health implications. While no one’s taking away your laddoo at Diwali, the government now wants you to know exactly what you’re biting into.

With the line between indulgence and health hazard blurring, this step may redefine the way India eats — not by fear, but by awareness. And in the battle against obesity, that awareness might just be our strongest ingredient.
