Pahalgam victim's daughter to start college, will study psychology, a dream she shared with dad
2
Kolkata: Seventeen-year-old Subhangi Guha, who lost her father Samir Guha in the terrorist attack at Baisaran Valley in Pahalgam on April 22, is about to start the next phase of her life as she starts college from next week.
She has taken admission to Loreto College, where she will study psychology honours, a decision her father had endorsed.
"When Subhangi switched from science to arts at St Teresa's School, she wanted to study psychology. Her father had endorsed her wish. For the past two years until her board exams, and even during the Kashmir trip, Subhangi held that dream close to her heart. This decision to study psychology will also fulfil her father's wish," said Sabari, Subhangi's mother.
Subhangi refused to talk to the media.
Sabari pointed out that Subhangi's psychology score in ISC was not what they had expected. "But she is focused on her future. At present, she wants to concentrate on her studies, focusing all her energy on it. Her dreams, she feels, will be fulfilled once she concentrates on her higher education." said Sabari. "We hope we will get help from everyone so that she can fulfil her dreams."

In fact, families in the close-knit neighbourhood have been rallying around the family.
"We have decided to pool in whatever resources we have locally to ensure her dream is fulfilled," said Shankar Roy, the president of the local club, where Samir had been an integral part the past seven years.

Sabari and Subhangi, along with 25 other families, were witness to their near ones being gunned down by terrorists in the picturesque Baisaran Valley on April 22.
The horror vivid in their memory, Sabari said, "It will never be possible to forget April 22. It will take a much longer time for this wound to heal, even a bit."
The mother said the first few days in college would be spent in adjusting to the surroundings as Subhangi had always been quiet, and close to her parents. She had barely stepped out after their Kashmir trip. "Subhangi would rather read than go out. So, at least for the initial days, I plan to drop her at college. Once she gains confidence, she can commute alone," said Sabari.

2 coaches of Jan Sadharan Express derail near Kanpur
1 2 Kanpur: Two coaches of the Muzaffarpur-Sabarmati Jan Sadharan Express (15269) derailed between Kanpur and Tundla in Uttar Pradesh on Friday afternoon. The derailment occurred near Bhaurpur outer area near Kanpur while the train was switching to the loop line at point and line number four to give passage to two passing trains. The slow speed of the train averted a major derailment, said rail officials. About 15 passengers sustained minor injuries. The up track remained closed for three hours, brining 12 trains to halt at nearby stations. Senior railway officials and emergency response teams reached the site and carried out relief operations. The Sabarmati Jansadharan Express had reached Kanpur Central Station at 3:07pm on Friday, more than two hours behind its scheduled arrival of 12:50pm. Following a brief 10-minute stop, it proceeded onwards. Around 4:15pm, while being directed to the loop line near Bhaurpur station's outer yard, the sixth and seventh coaches derailed. Loco pilot Chaman Ahmed and loco inspector Sunil Sharma from Tundla were operating the engine during the incident. The derailment caused complete disruption of the up track. Railway operations continued on the down track. A medical vehicle dispatched from Kanpur Central Station was halted at Panki upon confirmation of no casualties. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Benefits of Trading Bitcoin CFDs IC Markets Learn More Undo Loco inspectors Brajesh Kumar and Sanjay Srivastava arrived with an accident relief train at 4:52pm.

Jaipur's stinking truth: Cleanliness promises fail as garbage chokes city
1 2 3 4 5 6 Jaipur: The promise of a clean, beautiful Jaipur by Jaipur Municipal Corporation—Greater and Heritage—seems to exist only in official statements, as residents across the city continue to live amid garbage heaps, overflowing waste points, and a sanitation system that barely responds to complaints. In the Walled City, narrow lanes like Mishra Raja Ji Ka Rasta have turned into permanent dumping spots. Locals even call one alley 'Gandi Gali' — the dirty lane. "I have been here for 18 years, and this garbage heap has existed just as long. The corporation never listens, and we have stopped expecting anything. During the monsoon, the stench becomes unbearable, but we have grown used to it now," said Vinod Agrawal, a shopkeeper. Hemant Khandelwal, whose family runs a store at Mishra Raja Ji Ka Rasta for over five decades, echoed his frustration. He said, "The garbage is cleared only when a tender is floated — that too, once in six months or a year. Officers and even the mayor have visited, but nothing ever changes. Sanitation workers themselves dump the waste here instead of collecting it." Just outside a Govt Senior Secondary School on Baba Harishchandra Marg, a heap of garbage lies untouched. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You To Read in 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo "The garbage truck does come, but people wait until it's gone to dump their trash again. If we stop them, they pick fights," said Ram Naresh, a local vendor. Commercial hubs are equally filthy. At Raisar Plaza, garbage has decayed into a swamp-like mess. "Sometimes the trash builds up so much that it blocks the entrance. People even urinate nearby now because the area has become that filthy," said e-rickshaw driver Rajnesh Singh. According to civic data, JMC-H has over 1,799 unresolved complaints, mostly related to sewer lines and waste management. JMC-G fares worse, with 12,555 pending complaints. From Malviya Nagar to Pratap Nagar, residents report vacant plots and under-construction sites turning into dumping grounds. Prachi Sharma, a resident of Sector 29 in Pratap Nagar, said, "While garbage hoppers do visit our apartment regularly, nearby empty plots and under-construction buildings are used as dumping grounds. The stench makes it hard to walk by." Even Raja Park, a popular shopping hotspot, is plagued by piles of garbage. "Thousands visit daily, but there's barely any cleanliness. People are used to walking past the filth," said boutique owner Rekha Goyal. For many, lodging new complaints feels pointless.
