Complaint filed against creators of Ayodhya Ram temple replica

Hans India16 hours ago
Visakhapatnam: The replica of Ayodhya Ram temple set up at RK Beach in Visakhapatnam gets into controversy after two months of its establishment.
Representatives of Sree Seetha Ramachandra Swamy Vari Devasthanam, Bhadradri Kothagudem district, Bhadrachalam lodged a complaint with III Town Police of Visakhapatnam against the organisers of the 91-ft-tall Ayodhya Ram Mandir.
According to their complainant, it was mentioned that priests from Bhadrachalam Devasthanam were arriving for the ensuing 'Seetharama Kalyanam' scheduled at the Ayodhya Ram Mandir on July 29. Ram Mandir organisers took to social media platforms campaigning that the Bhadrachalam priests will be performing the kalyanam in the temple. The organisers are charging Rs 2,999 from each person for the ritual.
However, the complainants mentioned that they were not informed by the organisers about the 'kalyanam' and they have no connection with the ritual. They demanded action against the Ram Mandir organisers for collecting ticket money from the devotees under the garb of performing 'Seetharama Kalyanam' with the participation of Bhadrachalam priests.
'The ticket collection and 'kalyanam' should be stopped with immediate effect and a criminal case should be filed against the organisers for violating the law and cheating the people,' informed L Rama Devi, Special Deputy Collector and Executive Officer of Bhadrachalam Devasthanam.

Fake currency seizure reveals investment fraud racket

1 2 Kolkata: Following Saturday's seizure of counterfeit currency with a face value of Rs 9 crore from a hotel near the Dhamakhali ferry ghat in Sandeshkhali, North 24 Parganas, police have unearthed an online investment fraud racket. Police said the gang was run by Abhishek Tiwari, who is on the run. On Monday, police arrested Tishan Sen, and a search is on for his aides, Sirajuddin Molla and Debottam Chakraborty. ADG (CID) Vishal Garg said, "Tiwari and Sen were arrested by Kolkata Police in Feb in an investment fraud case. We found that the accused offered huge loans to people without much paperwork or background checks. Once the victims agreed to speak to them, they made video calls and used genuine money at the top and fake currency at the bottom to show that they had the cash ready. The victim was then asked to pay a 1%-2% commission to avail of the loan. This was how they cheated Subhasish Acharya of Burnpur, Asansol, of Rs 22 lakh. Acharya, a builder, was offered a loan of Rs 30 crore and got trapped in this scam." The gang printed the counterfeit currency from a shop in Sealdah. They had told the shop owner that the currency would be used in a movie. You Can Also Check: Kolkata AQI | Weather in Kolkata | Bank Holidays in Kolkata | Public Holidays in Kolkata

Gang used a plate to steal cash from ATMs, 3 held in Noida

Noida: A gang that stole cash stuck in ATMs by inserting fibre plates into the machine was busted on Tuesday with the arrest of three of the gang's members. Those arrested include Rohit Dang (26) and Vaibhav Batra (32), both residents of Sector 168, and Binas Dung (23), a resident of Delhi. According to DCP Yamuna Prasad, the gang would target ATMs, especially those located at street corners, and open their bottom panels using a master key. They would then insert a black fibre plate at the cash dispensing slot. When customers attempted to withdraw cash, the transaction would go through, but the money would be blocked by the plate. Once the customer left, assuming a technical failure, the accused would retrieve the trapped cash.
