Delhi minister denies Congress's claim of zoo privatisation
Union environment minister Bhupender Yadav on Saturday dismissed Congress leader Jairam Ramesh's concerns over a planned Memorandum of Understanding between the Delhi zoo and Gujarat's Greens Zoological Rescue And Rehabilitation Centre (also called Vantara), and said that such collaborations are a 'routine exercise' aimed at improving conservation efforts, scientific research, and animal welfare. On June 4, after officials at the zoo announced upgradation works and plans to sign the MoU with Vantara, Ramesh in a social media post said the step hinted towards privatisation. Yadav hit back on Saturday, stating that 'some people have made it a habit to create doubts in the mind of the public at every instance.' 'Zoological parks enter into collaborative MoUs with other zoos, universities and scientific institutions for enhancement of conservation efforts, scientific research, education and capacity building, resource sharing and animal welfare, etc. The Central Zoo Authority also enters into collaborations,' Yadav said in a post on X. He added than an MoU between GZRRC and the Delhi zoo (National Zoological Park) was first signed in January 2021. 'This MoU is focused on exchange of animals, capacity building of animal keepers, technical exchanges on scientific management of animals and sharing knowledge on conservation breeding and education,' Yadav said, The Delhi zoo, a 60-year-old institution, has gained substantial expertise in breeding and the care of many endangered species, he claimed. '..we are now aiming to modernise its facilities and services by adopting best practices of animal welfare in captivity as well as enhanced visitor experience on par with world class zoo,' Yadav said, and clarified that the Delhi Zoo has simply sought to revise its existing MoU with GZRRC. The proposed MoU aims to foster collaboration in wildlife conservation, rescue, rehabilitation, animal health, and welfare. Key areas of cooperation include support for veterinary care and allied services, exchange of best practices in captive management of endangered species, and technical assistance in zoo planning… and potential animal exchanges, he said, stating enhanced visitor focus was also another key focus area. Yadav added the Delhi zoo had signed MoUs with other expert organisations too, with a similar goal in mind. 'We will continue to do so,' he added. On June 4, Ramesh, who is a former Union environment minister, questioned whether the move is the first step towards privatisation of the Delhi zoo. 'Such an agreement entered into in such a hush-hush manner raises many questions that need to be clarified in a transparent manner. Zoos, national parks, tiger and other reserves, and sanctuaries are all public services and must never be privatised in any form…' the post had said.

After NDTV Report Exposes Constable Exam Scam, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Orders Crackdown
Quick Read Summary is AI generated, newsroom reviewed. Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav condemned police constable recruitment scam, calling it a betrayal. An investigation into biometric fraud has begun, leading to FIRs and arrests. The scheme undermined merit and affected numerous deserving candidates. Bhopal: Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav has broken his silence on the police constable recruitment scam exposed by NDTV, calling it a betrayal of thousands of deserving candidates and ordering immediate, stern action. "In light of the information received about fraud and irregularities in the police constable recruitment 2023 process, I have directed strict action to be taken immediately. Such criminal acts, which cause injustice to deserving candidates, will not be tolerated in Madhya Pradesh," the Chief Minister said in a strongly worded statement. Mr Yadav said the police headquarters has taken note of the matter on its own (suo motu) and launched an investigation into the biometric data and Aadhaar history of all the selected candidates. "Wherever impersonation has been prima facie established, criminal cases have been registered and strict action is being ensured," he said. This announcement comes days after NDTV uncovered a sophisticated network of the 'solver mafia', Aadhaar tampering, and biometric fraud that allowed undeserving candidates to steal the dreams of genuine aspirants. The investigation began when anomalies were spotted during the physical test rounds in Morena district - leading officials to uncover a pattern of multiple Aadhaar updates, changed biometrics, and impersonators appearing in written exams. With over 9.6 lakh applicants for 7,411 constable posts, the stakes were high. But instead of being a test of merit, the recruitment process became a target for organised fraud. Solvers, reportedly charging Rs 4-5 lakh per candidate, cleared the written exams using fake identities, and the original candidates later updated their Aadhaar credentials to reclaim their place. So far, 19 first information reports (FIRs) have been filed, 12 people arrested, and over 100 suspects are under investigation - including Aadhaar operators and candidates. A single solver is alleged to have appeared in six different exams, clearing five. Aadhaar centres in Bhitarwar, Morena, and Sheopur have come under the scanner for enabling mass-scale biometric manipulation. The scam has not only triggered outrage but also crushed the hopes of countless aspirants. Officials say the scam's links may stretch to Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, and Delhi, echoing the Vyapam scandal from a decade ago. The methods have evolved, but the motive remains unchanged: corruption, influence, and stolen opportunities. While the state government's crackdown has begun, the real challenge lies in restoring the sanctity of recruitment. For now, aspirants across the state wait - not just for justice, but for a system they can trust.
