Jaipur, July 12, 2025

“They say dreams have no age — and 71-year-old Tarachand Agarwal has just proved it.” By clearing one of the most prestigious and challenging exams in India — the Chartered Accountancy (CA) exam — he has broken not just age barriers but also inspired a whole generation of youth and senior citizens alike.

Hailing from Rajasthan’s Sikar district, Tarachand Agarwal had retired as a manager from the State Bank of India. But retirement for him wasn’t about slowing down — it was about rediscovering an old dream. Instead of settling into a life of rest, he decided to pursue what he had left behind: becoming a CA. And with the same discipline and dedication as any young aspirant, he started studying again.

Family Became His Strength
His journey was far from lonely. His entire family stood behind him like a rock. His son arranged online study material, his daughter-in-law ensured he ate on time, and his granddaughters made motivational charts to keep his spirits high. The household transformed — it felt just like a student’s home before exams.

Even ICAI Congratulated Him
The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) also acknowledged his incredible achievement with a congratulatory tweet, stating, “Mr. Tarachand Agarwal has shown the nation that learning has no age limit. He is a true inspiration to us all.”

What’s Next for CA Tarachand?
Speaking about his future plans, Tarachand said:
“I want to mentor rural youth who drop out of studies due to financial constraints or lack of self-belief. I want them to know — if I can become a CA at the age of 71, they can achieve anything too.”

New Delhi, July 12, 2025

Saturday morning brought new hope for the youth of India as Prime Minister Narendra Modi, through video conferencing, virtually participated in employment fairs held across 47 cities and distributed over 51,000 appointment letters to newly selected candidates. These weren’t just ordinary documents—they symbolized the first step toward the dreams of thousands of young Indians, ready to build their own future.

“No Recommendations, No Bribes” — Jobs Now Based Solely on Merit

Addressing the event, Prime Minister Modi emphasized the government’s commitment to a transparent, fair, and efficient recruitment process.

“Today, jobs in India are no longer handed out through influence or favors, but through talent. This is the identity of the New India,” said PM Modi.

He further reiterated that young aspirants no longer need backing or bribes to secure government jobs. The government’s “No Recommendation, No Expense” initiative reflects this very principle.

Confidence Shines on Young Faces

One of the selected candidates from Jaipur, Rajasthan, Miss. Sharma, shared her experience with visible emotion:

“I never thought I’d get a government job without any connections or under-the-table payments. This government has made that possible. I can now see the dreams of my family shining in their eyes—and mine.”

Youth Power Will Build the Nation

The Prime Minister urged the newly recruited youth to treat their roles not just as jobs, but as opportunities for nation-building.

• “Wherever you are posted, your dedication and work ethic will shape the future of the country,” he said.

The tiny tots of DAV Centenary Public School, Jaipur lit up the campus as they came dressed in cheerful shades of orange to celebrate Orange Day with great excitement and enthusiasm.

The pre-primary wing turned into a lively sea of orange—from clothes and accessories to creative decorations—all reflecting the spirit of joy, creativity, and energy that the colour symbolizes. Teachers thoughtfully planned the day to help children not just enjoy, but also learn the meaning behind the colour orange—a symbol of hope, enthusiasm, and prosperity.

The classrooms were buzzing with laughter and activity as the little learners took part in various fun-filled games, storytelling, drawing, and creative expression sessions. To boost their communication skills, each child was encouraged to bring an orange-coloured object from home and speak a few lines about it in front of their classmates. For many, it was their first public speaking moment, and they did it with adorable confidence.

Principal Mr. A.K. Sharma visited the classrooms to cheer on the children. He appreciated the thoughtful planning of the teachers and said, “Activities like these help children build confidence, express themselves freely, and connect learning with real-life experiences.”

It was a delightful sight to watch the little ones bursting with curiosity, dressed in glowing orange, exploring and expressing themselves. The day left behind not just smiles and laughter, but also a colourful memory in the hearts of the young students.

Thiruvananthapuram / Yemen | July11, 2025

Once a hopeful young nurse from Kerala, Nimisha Priya is now counting her final days in a Yemeni prison. Her crime — administering a sedative that led to the death of her Yemeni business partner, Alkhader Al-Omari. Her punishment — execution by hanging on July 13, 2025.

But behind this grim sentence lies a story much more complicated — one filled with ambition, control, fear, and a moment that changed everything.

A Nurse with Dreams, and a New Life Abroad

Nimisha Priya wasn’t a criminal when she left India. She was a caregiver — a skilled nurse with dreams of building a better life. In Yemen, she found work, opened a clinic, and partnered with Alkhader Al-Omari, a local man who helped her navigate the foreign land.

But what started as a partnership slowly turned into a prison.

Trapped in a Toxic Relationship

Reports from the time suggest that Al-Omari soon took control of more than just the clinic. He allegedly confiscated Nimisha’s passport, isolated her, and began mentally and physically abusing her. He took over her earnings and threatened her when she talked about returning home to India.

Far from family, friends, or legal protection, Nimisha felt completely trapped — her life and freedom in the hands of a man who, she believed, would never let her go.

The Night It All Changed

Then came that fateful night in 2017.

According to court documents, Nimisha gave Al-Omari a high dose of a sedative. Her stated intention was not to kill him, but to make him unconscious, retrieve her passport, and escape. But the sedative proved too strong — Al-Omari died.

Panic set in. Nimisha reportedly dismembered his body and tried to hide the evidence in a water tank. A gruesome and desperate act that, once discovered, left her no room to explain.

A Death Sentence, and a Race Against Time

The Yemeni court ruled the act pre-meditated murder and sentenced Nimisha to death by hanging.

For years, legal teams in India and Yemen pleaded for clemency. Activists pointed to the abuse she suffered, to the desperation of a woman with no escape, and to her otherwise clean record. Her mother, in tears, begged the Yemeni family for forgiveness, hoping for a “Diya” — blood money — a custom in Yemen that allows the victim’s family to pardon the accused.

But that pardon never came.

Only Six Days Left…

Today, Nimisha Priya is a prisoner not just behind bars, but in time. With just six days left, she awaits her execution. Her mother is still trying — hoping against hope — for one final miracle.

Meanwhile, millions in India are asking:
Was she a murderer? Or a victim of circumstance, trying to survive in a world where no one came to help?

Beyond the Verdict

This is not just Nimisha’s story. It’s the story of thousands of Indian women who work abroad, often with little protection. It’s the story of how desperation can drive someone to the edge, and how the law — especially in foreign lands — rarely leaves room for the grey in between.

Lucknow | July 11, 2025

In what could be one of the biggest financial frauds in India’s history, the curtain has finally started to lift. The Uttar Pradesh Economic Offences Wing (EOW) has arrested Gurnam Singh (69) — the key director behind Pearls Agrotech Corporation Ltd (PACL) — from Punjab’s Ropar district.

His crime? Allegedly orchestrating a ₹49,000 crore Ponzi scheme that duped nearly 5 crore investors across India.

This wasn’t just about money. It was about dreams sold and lives broken — mostly belonging to farmers, small shopkeepers, daily wage workers, and middle-class families who trusted PACL with their hard-earned savings.

The Dream That Turned Into a Trap

PACL promised affordable land investments. The plan sounded simple — invest now, and in a few years, you’d either get a valuable land parcel or high returns.

But behind the glittering promises lay a hollow scam.

No land. No returns. Just a web of false paperwork and delayed answers — until one day, even those stopped.

EOW’s New Face — Tough, Accountable, and On a Mission

What’s changed now? The UP EOW has introduced a “Reward and Punish” system to fast-track major financial crime probes like this:

• Monthly performance tracking of officers
• Fast-track teams deployed in every district
• Seizure of properties under Section 111 of the new BNS law
• Helplines, awareness drives, and social media alerts for public support

This new system has already led to 14 arrests, including key names linked to the ₹250 crore V-Care scam and this massive PACL fraud.

This Isn’t Just About Money — It’s About Betrayal

One woman investor said it best:
“We saved for our children’s education, for their future. Now we run around courts and collector offices, with nothing to show for it.”

Behind every number in this scam — there’s a family. A broken promise. A shattered future.

The Bigger Picture

This arrest proves one thing: Justice may be slow, but it’s not blind. ₹49,000 crore didn’t just disappear — it was siphoned off through trust and illusion. The real question now is:
Will India’s legal system bring back justice and money for 5 crore defrauded citizens? Or will this case too fade into the dust of files and forgotten hearings?

New Delhi | July11, 2025

There was a time when India’s growing population was considered the country’s biggest problem. Slogans like “Hum Do, Hamare Do” (We Two, Our Two) echoed across walls and radio channels. But times have changed — and so has the narrative.

According to the latest report by the United Nations, India’s population has officially crossed 1.46 billion, making it the most populous nation on the planet. But what’s surprising is this: India’s fertility rate — the number of children a woman has — is steadily declining.

Today, the average Indian woman is giving birth to just two children, which is right around the replacement level needed to maintain a stable population.

So, if fewer children are being born, why is the population still rising? What’s really happening behind these numbers?

This Isn’t Just About Statistics — It’s a Social Shift

There was a time when India was labelled a “population bomb.” Now, several Indian states — including Kerala, Delhi, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Punjab — have fertility rates below replacement level.

This isn’t happening due to force or law — but through education, awareness, and personal choice. It’s a quiet revolution led by society itself.

India is now slowly moving towards population stability, something once thought to be decades away.

Women Are Leading This Change

Behind these shifting numbers is a bigger story — the story of India’s changing women:

• They’re more educated
• They’re joining the workforce
• They’re marrying later
• And they’re making thoughtful, conscious decisions about motherhood

Children are no longer just a tradition — they’re a planned responsibility.

India’s Population Will Peak by 2060 — Then Begin to Decline

Experts say this population growth is the result of demographic momentum — a situation where the current large number of young people continues to reproduce, even as fertility falls.

But once this momentum slows, India’s population will gradually start to decline — marking the beginning of a new era.

That means: the country that is the youngest today may one day become one of the oldest nations in terms of age demographics.

The Real Question Now: What Will We Do With So Many People?

1. Can we create enough jobs for all?
2. Will our education and healthcare systems be able to handle the pressure?
3. And when the population begins to shrink, who will take care of the elderly?

India now needs smart policies, not just to control numbers — but to improve the quality of its population. Because in the long run, it’s not just about how many people we have, but what those people can do.

The Population Game Has Changed

This UN report isn’t just another document filled with stats — it’s a signal that India is entering a new demographic era.

The country is slowly shifting its focus from “how many” to “how capable” — and that’s where real progress begins.

Gurugram | July 11, 2025
In a deeply disturbing incident that has sent shockwaves across Gurugram, 21-year-old national tennis player Radhika Yadav was shot dead in her own home on Sunday morning. The most heartbreaking detail? The shooter was none other than her own father.

Radhika, who had made a mark at the national level in the past two years and had recently been selected for an international tournament, was the pride of her neighborhood. But her promising journey was cut short not by a stranger, but by someone who was supposed to protect her — her father, Ravindra Yadav.

What led to the tragic shooting?

According to initial police reports, Ravindra Yadav confessed during interrogation that he shot Radhika “in a fit of rage.” Investigators reveal that Radhika was passionate about her tennis career and was preparing to travel abroad for further training and competitions — a plan that reportedly didn’t sit well with her father.

Sources close to the family say Ravindra had always been a strict and conservative man. He was uncomfortable with Radhika’s growing independence and career choices. Tensions had been simmering within the household for months. On Saturday night, a heated argument broke out, and by morning, the unthinkable had happened.

Community in shock

The neighborhood is still reeling from the tragedy. Neighbors describe Radhika as a humble, focused, and highly disciplined young woman.
“She would be out for practice every morning by 5 AM. That kind of dedication is rare these days,” said one neighbor, struggling to hold back tears.

Father arrested on the spot

Police arrested Ravindra Yadav at the scene. He has been charged with murder under relevant sections of the IPC. Radhika’s mother, who was reportedly present in the house during the incident, is in deep shock and under medical observation.

A nation reflects: Are dreams still a crime for daughters?

Radhika’s brutal murder has sparked widespread outrage and grief. It has reignited an uncomfortable question — are daughters still being punished for dreaming big?
When a father turns into the very obstacle his daughter must overcome, it’s a mirror held up to our society.

Uttar Pradesh | 11 July 2025
By Credent TV News Desk

He walked with a staff, wore a long beard, and people in the village folded their hands in reverence at his feet. But behind that saintly image was a man running one of the darkest religious conversion syndicates India has ever seen. His name: Changur Baba. Real name: Jalaluddin. Age: 70. And his list of crimes? Long enough to outlive his age.

A Full-Fledged Conversion Industry

Recent investigations by Uttar Pradesh STF and ATS have uncovered a deeply disturbing reality. This so-called baba wasn’t just chanting prayers — he was masterminding an elaborate system of trapping women and girls into forced religious conversions.

His targets? Minor girls, widows, and poor women — the most vulnerable in society.
His method? Manipulation, emotional blackmail, fake promises of marriage, and when that didn’t work — threats and money.

What’s even more shocking — Baba had a conversion training manual. A complete system of how to trap girls from different religions: what to say, when to act affectionate, and when to threaten.
Fixed rates were decided for each conversion. This wasn’t faith — it was business.

Crores in Swiss Bank Accounts

If you thought this racket was operating on a small scale, think again. Investigators discovered over 40 bank accounts linked to Changur Baba, including several in Switzerland. The total transactions? A staggering ₹106 crore (over $12 million).
Where did the money come from? Sharjah, Dubai, and other Islamic countries, according to the STF.

This was not just a religious racket — it was internationally funded and systematically operated.

Arrested — But the Net Is Wider

On 5th July, STF arrested Changur Baba along with his close aide, Neetu alias Nasreen, from a hotel in Lucknow. During interrogation, it was revealed that the network stretched far — from Mumbai to Dubai.

Now, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has joined the investigation. A money laundering probe is underway, and authorities are preparing to seize assets and properties linked to the illegal trust and conversions.

A Saint No More

Changur Baba may be behind bars now, but the emotional scars he left on thousands of innocent women can’t be counted in case files or spreadsheets.

He exploited faith to deceive, used trust to destroy, and wore religion as a mask for crime.

As one STF officer said:
“He wasn’t a saint in White. He was a predator in disguise.”

The villagers who once bowed before him now raise questions. How did this go on for so long? And how many more like him are out there?

There’s an old saying:
“When fake saints rise, truth becomes the biggest casualty.”
But this time, the law has spoken. And Baba’s mask has finally fallen.

New Delhi | July 9, 2025

India woke up to a storm of slogans and silent streets today. With banners in hand and voices raised in unison, over 250 million workers and employees have joined a massive nationwide strike – the Bharat Bandh – protesting what they call anti-worker, anti-farmer, and pro-corporate policies of the central government.

This isn’t a symbolic protest. It’s being led by a powerful front of 10 central trade unions, supported by farmer organizations and rural labor unions. Together, they are sending one clear message – “Our voices matter.”

Why This Strike?

The protesting unions have raised serious allegations against the government:

• They say labor rights are being compromised.
• They accuse the government of aggressive privatization.
• They argue corporate interests are being prioritized over the common worker.
• They’re demanding protection of jobs, pensions, and public sector institutions.

Simply put, this bandh is not just about wages – it’s about respect, dignity, and survival.

Services Hit by the Strike

Several essential services across the country have felt the impact. Banking operations have slowed down due to staff participation in the strike. Postal services in many regions are suspended. In some states, public transport has been disrupted, leading to traffic snarls. Industries like coal, steel, and construction are reporting work stoppages. Even the power sector may experience temporary outages due to absentee staff.

What Remains Open?

Despite the unrest, hospitals and emergency services continue to function normally. Most schools, colleges, and private offices are open. Railways are largely operational, though some delays have been reported due to protests in certain regions. Markets and shops are also open in most cities, as trade unions and retail bodies have not actively joined the bandh.

Where the Impact Is Strongest

States like Kerala, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and Jharkhand have seen major protests, rallies, and transport blockades. In Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Punjab, the effect is more limited but still visible in sectors like banking and heavy industry.

Voices from the Ground

“We are not asking for favors. We are demanding what is rightfully ours – fair wages, job security, and dignity,” said a worker protesting in Ranchi.

“This bandh is a message to the government – listen before it’s too late,” said a union leader from Kolkata.

What Should You Do Today?

If you need to visit a government office, bank, or post office – call ahead to confirm. If you’re commuting, keep track of traffic and avoid areas with active protests. Stock up on essentials if you’re in a region where services are being disrupted.

The Bottom Line

Bharat Bandh 2025 is more than a strike – it’s a reminder that the people who build this nation also have the power to stop it when ignored. The coming days will reveal whether this united voice of workers leads to policy change, but for today, one thing is certain – the streets have spoken.
