Authorities had declined to renew Mehbooba's passport since 2019 citing "adverse" police report

Former J&K CM Mehbooba Mufti issued passport after three years

PDP president and former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti has been issued a regular passport with a validity of 10 years, after more than three years of legal battle.

Authorities had declined to renew Mehbooba's passport since 2019 citing "adverse" police report

PDP president and former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti has been issued a regular passport with a validity of 10 years, after more than three years of legal battle.
Authorities had declined to renew Mehbooba's passport since 2019 citing "adverse" police report, after which she moved the Delhi High Court. The high court, in an order in March this year, stated that the passport authority should decide within three months on issuing a fresh travel document to her.
The former chief minister got her new passport just days ahead of a hearing scheduled in the Jammu and Kashmir High Court this week on her daughter's plea for a regular travel document for herself.
In her plea in the Jammu and Kashmir HC, Mehbooba's daughter Iltija challenged the decision of the passport office to give her a country-specific passport with a limited validity of two years to facilitate her higher education. Iltija had refused to accept the conditional travel document and approached the high court with a plea for a regular passport for all countries and with a validity of 10 years.
The new passport given to Mehbooba, the last chief minister of the erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir state before it was bifurcated in 2019, is valid from June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2033.
After several rounds back-and-forth pleas in the Delhi High Court, Justice Pratibha M Singh had ordered in March this year that the passport authority should decide within three months on issuing a fresh travel document to Mehbooba.
"Considering that the matter is remanded back to the passport officer and the initial rejection was two years ago, let the passport officer concerned take a decision expeditiously and in any case within three months," the judge had noted in the order.
The court's order had come on a petition by Mehbooba seeking a direction to the passport authorities to take an early decision on her appeal regarding the issuance of a new passport.
In her plea to the Delhi High Court, the former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister said there was a considerable delay in issuing a new passport to her despite reminders and that no decision was being taken on her appeal.
In February this year, Mehbooba had sought the intervention of External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar for the issuance of the passport, saying she had been waiting for it for the past three years to take her 80-year-old mother on a pilgrimage to Mecca.
In March 2021, Mehbooba and her mother Gulshan Ara were denied passports after the Jammu and Kashmir Police had cited an "adverse report". Her mother had been issued a passport two months back.
National Conference president and former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Farooq Abdullah congratulated Mehbooba and hoped that now she would be able to fulfil her religious duties as desired by her.&nbsp;

Vaishnaw said that a CBI probe has been recommended keeping situation in mind

The Railway Board has recommended a CBI probe into the Balasore train accident that has so far claimed 275 lives.
&ldquo;We have recommended a CBI probe into the triple train accident that claimed 275 lives and left over 1,000 injured,&rdquo; Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw told reporters in Bhubaneswar on Sunday evening.
The Centre along with the support of the state government are giving all support to the injured patients who are admitted to various hospitals in Balasore, Cuttack and Bhubaneswar.
&ldquo;Patients are being given all facilities in hospitals. There are teams of doctors who are taking care of patients round-the-clock,&rdquo; Vaishnaw said.
He said the government was trying to get in touch with the families of the deceased.
&ldquo;We are trying to get in touch with families of the dead,&rdquo; the Minister added.
The Odisha government on Sunday revised the triple train accident&rsquo;s death toll to 275 from 288, and put the number of injuries at 1,175.
Chief Secretary P K Jena said some bodies were counted twice. "After detailed verification and a report by Balasore District Collector, the final toll has been fixed at 275," he said.
Three trains&mdash; Shalimar-Chennai Coromandel Express, Bengaluru-Howrah super fast and a goods train &mdash; were involved in the pile-up on Friday, now being described as one of India&rsquo;s worst train accidents.
The Coromandel Express rammed into a stationary goods train and many of its carriages overturned including some onto another train - the Bengaluru-Howrah superfast express which was also passing by at the same time on Friday.

The National Disaster Management Authority has recently started sending text messages on mobile phones to disseminate critical information

After text alerts, NDMA to broadcast extreme weather warnings on TV and radio

Soon, television screens will flash warning messages about the impending extreme weather events in the country 

The National Disaster Management Authority has recently started sending text messages on mobile phones to disseminate critical information

Soon, television screens will flash warning messages about the impending extreme weather events in the country and songs on radio will be cut short to make way for the urgent alerts.
The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) has recently started sending text messages on mobile phones to disseminate critical information about heavy rainfall, thunderstorms and heat wave, among others.
It now plans to expand the warning system to television, radio and other mediums to ensure citizens are promptly informed and better prepared for severe weather, according to officials.
"The text-based system is part of phase one of the project. TV, radio and other mediums are being covered in phase two which will be implemented by the end of the year," a senior NDMA official told PTI.
With the amalgamation of technology and communication, the NDMA aims to surpass the limitations of text-based warnings, he said. &nbsp;Before text messages, the NDMA used to issue such early warnings through the 'National Disaster Alert Portal' and a mobile application called "Sachet".
The agency had conceived the "Common Alerting Protocol Based Integrated Alert System" to bring together the alert generating agencies, including the India Meteorological Department, Central Water Commission, Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services and Forest Survey of India, alert disseminating agencies and state disaster management authorities on a common platform.
The Centre sanctioned the pan-India implementation of the first phase of the project in 2021 following a successful pilot project in Tamil Nadu.
"This is the largest early warning programme in the world called 'common alerting protocol'. People don't need to subscribe to WhatsApp, email or SMS groups. You will get the alert automatically," another NDMA official said.
The messages will be broadcast in two languages, including the local language, alerting people about the impending severe weather event. Going ahead, mobile phones will vibrate upon receiving such alerts, he said.
"If you're watching television, the TV screen will flash the warning message and there will be audio too. If you're listening to a song on the radio, it will be cut short and the alert will be aired. This will be done very shortly," the official said.
He said India will be the only country outside the global north to have a common alerting protocol.
According to IMD, India lost 2,770 people to extreme weather events in 2022. Of them, 1,580 died reportedly due to lightning and thunderstorms, while 1,050 died due to floods and heavy rains. The remaining deaths were due to heat waves, hailstorms and dust storms.
Natural disasters, heavy floods and cyclones, triggered around 2.5 million internal displacements in India in 2022, according to a report by the Geneva-based Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre.
Extreme weather, climate and water-related events caused 573 disasters in India between 1970 and 2021 that claimed 1,38,377 lives, according to data from the World Meteorological Department.&nbsp;

The letter mentions that the incident happened on February 8 and the train in question was Train No: 12649 Sampark Kranti Express.&nbsp;

Odisha train accident: what is an electronic interlocking system? 'Root cause' of mishap

Railway minister Ashwini Vaishnaw has said that the 'root cause' of the triple train collision in Odisha's Balasore on June 2 was a change in 'electronic interlocking'. 

An interlocking system is a safety mechanism that ensures the safe and efficient movements of trains at railway junctions, stations and signalling points.

Railway minister Ashwini Vaishnaw has said that the 'root cause' of the triple train collision in Odisha's Balasore on June 2 was a change in 'electronic interlocking'.&nbsp;
What is an interlocking system?
An interlocking system is a safety mechanism that ensures the safe and efficient movements of trains at railway junctions, stations and signalling points.
The interlocking system makes sure that movable sections of track that allow trains to change direction from one track to another are properly aligned and locked in the correct position before a train can pass over them. &nbsp; There are circuits installed on the track that detect the presence of a train. The circuits help to determine whether a section of track is occupied or empty, enabling the interlocking system to control train movements.
Electronic interlocking is a modern form of interlocking technology in which the control and supervision of train movements are carried out through software, &nbsp;computers, programmable logic controllers , and communication networks.&nbsp;

Railway Minister on Odisha train accident: have identified cause, defends Kavach

Railway Minister on Odisha train accident: have identified cause, defends Kavach

The root cause of the three-train crash in Odisha's Balasore district has been identified and the Railways is aiming to restore normal services on the affected tracks by Wednesday, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said.
Talking to reporters at the accident site, he said the issue is of electric point machine, a vital device for railway signalling, and electronic interlocking.
The change that was made to electronic interlocking which led to the accident has been identified, Vaishnaw said while denying that the incident had anything to do with the anti-collision system "Kavach".
The crash involving Bengaluru-Howrah Superfast Express and Shalimar-Chennai Central Coromandel Express, which were carrying around 2,500 passengers, and a goods train occurred around 7 pm on Friday near the Bahanaga Bazar station in Balasore. At least 288 people were dead and over 1,100 injured in the accident.
"The enquiry into the accident has been completed and as soon as the commissioner of railway safety (CRS) provides his report all the details will be known.
"The root cause of the horrifying incident has been identified... I do not want to go into details. Let the report come out. I will just say that the root cause and the people responsible have been identified," the railway minister said.
He also said the kin of around 300 accident victims have been provided compensation. "We met the patients and doctors at Soro Hospital. Special trains are being run from Hyderabad, Chennai, Bengaluru, Ranchi, Kolkata and other places so that patients can reach homes after treatment." Vaishnaw said restoration work was being carried out on a war footing and tracks have already been laid on one of the main lines.
"We have mobilised all resources. I also want to say that Kavach has nothing to do with the accident. This accident occurred due to changes to the electronic interlocking system. The remarks of (West Bengal chief minister) Mamata Banerjee is not true," Vaishnaw said.
"The setting of the point machine was changed. How and why it was done will be revealed in the probe report," he said.
An electric point machine is a vital device for railway signalling for quick operation and locking of point switches and plays an important role in the safe running of trains. Failure of these machines severely affects train movement and deficiencies at the time of installation can result in unsafe conditions.
The preliminary probe report, a copy of which is with PTI, said the signal was given and taken off for the up main line for train number 12841 (Coromandel Express). The train entered the loop line, dashed with the goods train and derailed. In the meantime, train number 12864 (Bengaluru-Howrah Superfast Express) passed through the down main line and two of its coaches derailed and capsized, the report said.
Vaishnaw, who is on ground zero since Friday night, supervising rescue and relief operations as well as the railway track restoration efforts, said the railway aims to complete restoration work on tracks by Wednesday.
The rescue and relief at the accident site is complete, he said.
Over 1000 workers are working round-the-clock for early restoration. It has deployed more than seven Poclain Machines, two accident relief trains, and three to four railway and road cranes for the resumption of rail traffic.
The work on repairing tracks and overhead electric lines is in progress.
Earlier in the day, the railway tracks had been cleared of wrecked coaches.
In a statement, the South Eastern Railway (SER) zone said, "All 21 coaches which capsized and derailed have been grounded. Now the site is being cleared of bogie/ wheels sets and other components. Three goods wagons and locomotive grounding work is going on. Track linking and OHE work is going on parallel." The railway is also operating special trains for transporting survivors and relatives of the deceased.&nbsp;

Save the Yamuna: &nbsp;human chains formed in Delhi to save the river &nbsp;| Watch

&nbsp;A large number of people gathered along the Yamuna river banks to form a human chain on early Sunday morning under a citizen-centric initiative to save the river from heavy pollution.
Under the 'Yamuna Sansad' initiative, people formed the human chain at many places, including ITO, Wazirabad, Kalindikunj, Geeta Colony and Old Usmanpur, raising the demand to revive the river overburdened with sewage and industrial waste discharged in it.
A large number of representatives of social, cultural and religious organisations too participated in the campaign.
Many politicians, including former BJP organisation secretary Govindacharya, Delhi AAP convener and Arvind Kejriwal government minister Gopal Rai, and Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva, too attended the campaign.
'Yamuna Sansad' convener Ravi Shankar Tiwari said the human chain was formed expressing peoples' resolve to contribute to reviving the Yamuna that has been "rendered into a drain despite years of efforts by governments to clean it".&nbsp;

Rahul has deep understanding of technology: Silicon Valley entrepreneur who hosted Congress leader

The Silicon Valley entrepreneur who hosted Congress leader in the US said Rahul doesn't claim to know everything but is very curious.&nbsp;

Visiting Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has a deep and humane understanding of technology and connects it directly with the impact it would have on common man and jobs, said the young Indian-American who hosted him for a meeting with Silicon Valley startup entrepreneurs working in the field of Artificial Intelligence and other cutting-edge technologies.
"He never claims that he knows everything. ...but he is always curious. (During the meeting) he expressed his kind of limitation on different subjects, but he always shows his appetite for the technology," said Shan Sankaran, founder of FixNix, a Silicon Valley-based startup that provides a cloud-based platform for simplifying GRC-related (governance, risk, compliance) decision-making.
Sankaran helped organise "AI and Human Development: A Chat with Rahul Gandhi" at the Plug and Play, a Silicon Valley incubator for startups, on Wednesday.
During the event, Gandhi told the audience he tries to emulate his father and former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi on adoption of technology in various sectors including banking, according to Sankaran.
"He (Rahul Gandhi) is seeing how innovation can further fuel (growth and development) in case he becomes prime minister of India (through) his vision," said Sankaran, who was given the rare O1 visa by the US meant for individuals of extraordinary capabilities.
Sankaran said Gandhi also indicated he is in favour of regulating technologies rather than banning them. "Technology needs a lot of regulation, not banning. Right now, what's happening in India, TikTok, you don't like it, Ban it. ..The US has not banned TikTok or drones. They kind of regulate. They (United States) have an issue, they made the CEO of TikTok to come talk to the all the member of the Congress. They have a house inquiry, what they call. So those kinds of interactions always happen with even the so-called technology companies and ourselves. They never ban. Drones, they regulate. You cannot fly your drone on top of the Golden Gate," Sankaran said.
Referring to the conversations Gandhi had on the Pegasus spyware at the meeting, Sankaran said the technology invented by the Silicon Valley and Israels of the world has helped many tyrants and is being used to silence discussed, press, judiciary, opposition and independent institutions of the world, including Rahul Gandhi.
"But Rahul cannot be silenced, because he has no baggage. All the other opposition in India can be silenced. They may have some baggages. They are worried. But Rahul doesn't have any baggage. Today in fact, he said, hello to Modi. He will be listening, is what he said. It's in a comical way, but that's what it is," he said.
Sankaran said the time he spent with the Congress leader tells him that Gandhi "has a human heart" and is very empathetic.
"He is a human being. In fact, I will call him Buddha....I will call him Buddha. He's a living Buddha. So, I think he's not behind any of this fancy designations. He could have become prime minister when they had that majority. He could have become prime minister twice. In fact, he never became the prime minister. Not a single soul in the Congress would've objected in case he wanted to become prime minister. He never choose to," he said.
"I think, he's a guy personally I see as a role model for the future generations to adopt. In fact, when he's now thrown out of his home which he had as a member of parliament, he doesn't have a single iota of hatred against Modi," he said.
"He is a great Buddha and he follows Dhamma for that matter. In many private interactions, what I found is he has very deep knowledge in many subjects not just technology," he said.
Sankaran has 17 provisional patents in his name. "I moved here to build my future dreams, continue to innovate more, see how my innovation can help society," he said.
