Fake govt tender for school uniforms: Delhi Police arrest duo for defrauding vendors of crores of rupees
The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) arrested two people accused of orchestrating a fraud involving crores of rupees by deceiving merchants and vendors under the guise of government tenders for school uniforms, the Delhi Police said Tuesday. The accused, identified as Karunakar alias Ratnakar Upadhyay, 40, and Anita Upadhyay, 35, are alleged to have duped multiple suppliers by falsely promising them contracts under the Rashtriya Gramin Saksharta Mission (RGSM), which was claimed to be a Central government initiative. Anita allegedly headed the fictitious RGSM trust and the Chhattisgarh Police had previously arrested the duo in a similar case, said the police. The complainant, Capt Shivender Singh Bakshi, alleged that he had been induced under a criminal conspiracy by Anita Upadhyay and others to register as a vendor for the RGSM. He claimed that he was persuaded to supply school uniforms intended for distribution to underprivileged children across various states. However, after receiving the uniforms, the accused allegedly did not make the promised payments and instead misappropriated the goods. They also allegedly defrauded the complainant of nearly Rs 2 crore, which he claimed to have had paid as a commission for the allotment of the tender. The police said three more similar complaints from other vendors have also been registered and are currently under investigation. 'Ratnakar Upadhyay created a fake website in the domain name of RGSM and Anita opened a bank account in the name of RGSM. The banking transactions confirm the transfer of money from the complainant's account to RGSM's account. Ratnakar withdrew a huge amount of Rs 3.5 crore from the RGSM trust's account and used it for personal gain. Anita was the head of the trust, and she was also found to be a beneficiary of an amount from the RGSM account,' Amrutha Guguloth, Additional Commissioner of Police, EOW. The police obtained a custody remand of the accused after their arrest on July 21 for further interrogation. The authorities also seized two truckloads containing approximately 45,000 school uniforms, valued at around Rs 1.5 crore, which had allegedly been supplied by one of the complainants as part of the fake tender deal. According to the police, Ratnakas has previously been involved in multiple criminal cases in Uttar Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, and a rape case in Delhi's Paharganj.

"Fabricated": Delhi Cops Reject Mamata Banerjee's Assault Claim On Bengalis
New Delhi: The Delhi Police on Monday called a video shared by West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on social media, alleging that a Bengali-speaking woman and her child were assaulted in the national capital for speaking their language, "fabricated" and "politically motivated." Deputy Commissioner of Police (East) Abhishek Dhania on Monday said that the police took immediate cognizance of the video shared on platform 'X' by the West Bengal Chief Minister, where she claimed that the woman and her child were brutally assaulted by Delhi Police personnel. Atrocious!! Terrible!! See how Delhi police brutally beat up a kid and his mother, members of a migrant family from Malda's Chanchal. See how even a child is not spared from the cruelty of violence in the regime of linguistic terror unleashed by BJP in the country against the… — Mamata Banerjee (@MamataOfficial) July 27, 2025 "Upon inquiry, we identified the woman as Sanjanu Parveen. During questioning, she alleged that on the night of July 26, four men in plain clothes posing as police personnel took her and her child to a secluded spot and demanded Rs 25,000, which she claimed to have paid," DCP Dhania said. However, the DCP said that a detailed investigation, including analysis of CCTV footage and local intelligence, revealed inconsistencies in her story. "During sustained questioning, the woman admitted that her relative, a political worker from Malda district in West Bengal, had asked her to make the video. The video was then circulated locally in Bengal and later surfaced on social media," the officer said. Terming the video "baseless and fabricated", SCP Dhania added that the footage was deliberately created to defame the Delhi Police. "This appears to be a deliberate attempt to malign the image of Delhi Police through a politically motivated narrative. The matter is still under investigation," he said.

Image courtesy: NYPD A horrific mass shooting rocked New York City on Tuesday. A gunman stormed into a high-rise office building in Midtown Manhattan, home to heavyweight firms like Blackstone, the National Football League, and KPMG, and opened fire, killing four people before turning the gun on himself. The shooter, now identified as Shane Devon Tamura, a 27-year-old from Las Vegas, acted alone, armed with an around $500 assault rifle, reports the New York Post.

That's when a man, dressed in a bulletproof vest and carrying a long rifle, walked into a 44-storey office tower in Manhattan, just a few blocks away from Grand Central Station, Rockefeller Center, and the Museum of Modern Art, and began shooting.
