Rescue workers entered rescue pipes to manually cut metal girders after machines hit metal girders in the debris

Uttarakhand tunnel collapse: man who entered narrow rescue pipe when others couldn't

Rescue workers entered rescue pipes to manually cut metal girders after machines hit metal girders in the debris

The operation to rescue the workers trapped in Uttarakhand's Silkyara tunnel has been going on for 17 days. The delay in bringing out the workers was partly due to the obstructions faced by the drilling machines while clearing the debris.&nbsp;
Auger and drilling machines kept hitting metal obstructions in the debris, stalling the rescue work.&nbsp;
This led to manual intervention with rescue workers entering the the narrow pipes pushed through the rescue holes to cut the metal structures using gas cutters.&nbsp;
According to the Indian Express, on the 12th day of the rescue operation the teams faced a similar situation.&nbsp;
Praveen Yadav, an underground tunneling expert for Trenchless Engineering, told Indian Express that several people tried to enter to the narrow pipes but could not in the absence of proper oxygen supply.&nbsp;
He volunteered to go in but his boss asked him to wait for the National Disaster Response Force personnel to try.&nbsp;
Yadav told the Indian Express that NDRF jawans were to big and the rescue pipes too small so he ultimately went in with two other people.&nbsp;
Yadav said he took a gas cutter, two bottles of water and crawled into the pipes on his knees and elbows.&nbsp;

He said that sometimes the work requires him to go inside those pipes two or three times a day.&nbsp;
Yadav and his aides found the metal girders and cut them using gas cutters. They then removed the cut pieces.&nbsp;
He said that the process generated a lot of heat and they faced the risk of sustaining burn injuries.&nbsp;

Karnataka doctor arrested for 'performing' 900 illegal abortions

The hospital&rsquo;s manager, Meena, and receptionist, Rizma Khan, were arrested earlier this month, police said.

The Bengaluru police have arrested a doctor and his lab technician who allegedly performed around 900 illegal abortions in the last three years, officials said on Monday. Dr Chandan Ballal and his lab technician Nisar allegedly charged around Rs 30,000 for each abortion which they carried out at a hospital in the district headquarters town of Mysuru. Both were taken into custody last week, they said. &nbsp; The hospital&rsquo;s manager, Meena, and receptionist, Rizma Khan, were arrested earlier this month, police said. Police busted the sex-determination and female foeticide racket last month with the arrest of two accused&mdash;Shivalinge Gowda and Nayan Kumar&mdash;in the district headquarters town of Mandya, near Mysuru, when they were taking a pregnant woman for abortion in a car. During questioning, the accused duo revealed a jaggery unit in Mandya, used as an ultrasound scan centre, from where a police team later seized the scan machine, which did not have valid authorisation or other official documents, a police officer said.

An Indian Railways engineer was told to transfer to Delhi 3 days before his scheduled retirement.

‘Sheer madness’: Railway engineer transferred 3 days before retirement

An Indian Railways engineer was asked to report to Delhi for a new posting 3 days before his scheduled retirement.

"Sheer madness," responded a senior engineer to the Railway Board when it ordered his transfer from Bilaspur in Chhattisgarh to Delhi three days before his retirement.
The chief communication engineer from the Bilaspur division of South East Central Railway (SECR) has written to the Railway Board terming his transfer to the Northern Railway (NR) zone three days before his retirement an act of harassment.
According to the transfer order, KP Arya is supposed to join the NR on a higher administrative grade post on November 28, 2023, while his retirement is due on November 30.
"This order seems well in order at the surface, but when seen in the complete perspective of my imminent superannuation within a week on 30th Nov 2023, the madness shines brightly," Arya said in a letter addressed to the Secretary, Railway Board.
He added, "Because this is nothing but sheer madness only to transfer one employee, who has served the IR (Indian Railway) organisation his whole life, in the week of his superannuation so that his superannuation settlement gets disrupted and he gets harassed in the last days in the organisation." Arya told PTI that the SECR zone already had a vacant HAG post, still, the Railway Board decided to transfer him to the NR zone on a similar vacant post.
"I will work only for three days in NR headquarters, New Delhi and retire from the Indian Railways. The Railways will pay me about Rs 3 lakh just as transfer money which is a complete waste of public money," Arya told PTI.
Though this is a promotional transfer, Arya will not get any additional monetary benefit. "My promotion was due about six months ago but it was kept pending. However, as per the government norms, I started getting monetary benefits for that post from the day my promotion was due. So, this promotional transfer is only to harass me." The engineer in his letter alleged, "In the series of harassment being meted out to me, a professionally very very competent, honest and upright officer by a cabal of officials of dubious character &hellip; I found it my duty to expose the concerned Railway Board officials as I have always done."

UP temple 'purified' with Gangajal after 'non-vegetarian' Muslim MLA's visit

A temple in UP was "purified" with Gangajal after Samajwadi Party's Muslim MLA Saiyada Khatoon attended an event there.

Members of Hindu outfits and local civic officials sprinkled Gangajal on a temple in Uttar Pradesh's Siddharthnagar and recited Hanuman Chalisa after Samajwadi Party's Muslim MLA Saiyada Khatoon's visit.
Khatoon was invited by the administration of the Samya Mata temple to attend an event.
The chief of a nagar panchayat said that the temple was disrespected by the local MLA who is a non-vegetarian and that her visit affected the sanctity of the place.
The police have been on alert following the incident.
Reacting on the issue, Khatoon said some elements were misleading a group of people.
&ldquo;I respect all religions. Moreover, I am a public representative. Be it a temple or a mosque, I will surely go there if I am invited,&rdquo; she was quoted as saying by Hindustan Times.
She added that she has used her MLA fund for the renovation of various temples.

The Election Commission has asked the Congress government in Karnataka to stop publishing advertisements in newspapers in poll-bound Telangana.

EC asks Cong's Karnataka govt to stop ads in poll-bound Telangana

The Election Commission has asked the Congress government in Karnataka to stop publishing advertisements in newspapers in poll-bound Telangana.

The Election Commission on Monday asked the Congress government in Karnataka to stop publishing advertisements about its work in newspapers in poll-bound Telangana and sought an explanation from it for not seeking prior approval as mandated under the poll code.
Earlier in the day, the BJP lodged a complaint with the Commission in the matter, alleging that the Congress has violated the Representation of the People Act and the Model Code of Conduct with its government in Karnataka putting out advertisements in the Telangana media with an eye on the November 30 assembly polls there. The BRS too approached the poll panel on the issue.
In a letter to the Karnataka chief secretary, the Commission said the state government did not obtain prior approval from it for publishing the advertisements, an action violative of the poll code instructions issued to central and state governments years ago.
It also said the publication of any such advertisement by the government of Karnataka in Telangana should stop with immediate effect till necessary approvals are taken by the state government from the Commission.
It has sought an explanation by 5 pm on Tuesday on the circumstances which led to the violation of the Commission's Model Code of Conduct (MCC) instructions.
In its letter, the Commission also asked why disciplinary action should not be taken against the secretary-in-charge of the Department of Information and Public Relations for violations of procedure as required under MCC instructions.
In the past, the Commission had observed that certain advertisements highlighting welfare schemes and achievements of the central and state governments were being published by some non-poll-going states in the newspapers in poll-bound states.
The Commission had considered this to be a violation of the spirit of the Model Code of Conduct.
In 2013, it had directed that, in future, all such advertisements issued by non-poll-going states during the Model Code of Conduct period would be forwarded to the Commission for clearance before they are sent for publication in newspapers having editions or circulation in the poll-bound states.
Assembly polls are due in Telangana on November 30, with the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), the Congress and the BJP locked in a keen battle.

Uttarakhand tunnel rescue successful: top 5 points

Rescue workers pulled out all 41 workers trapped in Uttarakhand's Silkyara tunnel in a multi-agency rescue operation that hovered between hope and despair for almost 17 days.

The workers have been taken to a hospital and their health will be monitored.&nbsp;
Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami has announced financial aid of Rs 1 lakh for each rescued worker.&nbsp;
Dhami said that the youngest of the workers was rescued first with team leaders coming out last.&nbsp;
PM Modi, President Murmu and other ministers tweeted to congratulate the rescue teams and expressed happiness the success of the operation.&nbsp;

There was hugging and cheers as the ordeal ended. Outside the tunnel some people chanted &ldquo;Har Har Mahadev&rdquo; and &ldquo;Bharat Mata ki Jai&rdquo; Ambulances which had lined up at the tunnel ferried the workers to a community health centre where a special 41-bed ward had been set up.
Before this, the workers were given a quick medical checkup as they emerged out of the steel pipe.
CM Dhami said no worker was in a critical situation. But the labourers will be kept under medical observation for some time before being sent home, he said.
He said the youngest of the worker was rescued first.
A portion of the tunnel on the Char Dham route collapsed on November 12, blocking the exit of the workers who were inside.
Food, medicines and other essentials were sent to them through a six-inch pipe pushed through the rubble of the collapsed portion.
Relief was felt far and wide.
Over the phone, Jharkhand&rsquo;s Sunil, who was camping in Silkyara, spoke to PTI on the rescue of his brother Anil.
"Finally, God heard us. My brother could be rescued. I am with him in an ambulance on the way to hospital," he said in a choked voice.
As the rescue appeared imminent earlier in the day, families stationed in Silkyara were allowed inside the tunnel with their belongings &ndash; so that they could travel with their loved ones to the medical centre.
