TTD appeals to devotees not to fall prey to middlemen

Tirupati, July 1 (UNI) Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD) had once again appealed to its devotees not to fall prey to middlemen for obtaining darshan and accommodation.
In a statement released today by TTD, stated that a person operating a Facebook page titled 'Vaishnava Yatras' under the name of Peddinti Prabhakaracharyulu is falsely promoting the availability of Srivari Abhishekam, Arjitha Sevas, VIP Break Darshan, and Rs. 300 Special Entry Darshan tickets.
TTD cautioned the devotees not to trust such fake individuals or websites. All tickets must be booked only through the official TTD website.

Dharmasthala case: Ananya Bhat's photo released

Mangaluru, Aug 17 (UNI) The Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the Dharmasthala case has intensified its investigation even as the missing case of Ananya Bhat, filed by her mother Sujatha Bhat, has come into the spotlight. Sujatha Bhat released the passport-size photograph of her daughter, Ananya Bhat, for the first time, following mounting questions about the girl's identity and her disappearance. Until now, despite filing a complaint, Sujatha had not provided any photograph, raising doubts in public and among investigators. According to the complaint, Ananya, a medical college student, had visited the Dharmasthala temple with her friends but never returned. Sujatha, who was then working as a stenographer with the CBI in Kolkata, alleged that when she tried to lodge a missing complaint, she was threatened and turned away. She also claimed that when she raised the matter before the temple administration, she was assaulted by the staff, leaving her in a coma for three months. The controversy deepened after a masked complainant alleged that hundreds of bodies were buried in Dharmasthala. Sujatha submitted that if her daughter's remains were found among those exhumed and her DNA matched, the body should be handed over to her so that Hindu last rites could be performed. The SIT is simultaneously carrying out the exhumation of skeletal remains and examining Sujatha's complaint. Sujatha's lawyer Manjunath urged her to release her daughter's photograph in response to widespread demands on social media. The Ananya Bhat disappearance has now become one of the most debated aspects of the Dharmasthala case, which has already created a nationwide stir. UNI BDN ARN

8 fined for misuse of Rs 1.35L funds under MGNREGA in Palamu

Daltonganj: The Ramgarh block development officer (BDO) on August 14 convicted eight individuals under Section 25 of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) in Bansdih panchayat under Ramgarh block of Palamu on charges of misuse of over Rs 1.35 lakh govt funds and imposed fine on each of them. The convicted were identified as mukhiya Sangeeta Devi, panchayat sachiv Suraj Kumar Singh, junior engineer with MGNREGA Pankaj Kumar Singh, and rozgar sewak Ravindra Ram. Each of these four was fined Rs 1,000 under Section 25 of the MGNREGA. Also, each of the four would have to pay the outstanding recovery amount, bringing the total to Rs 28,072 per person. The rest were Mahesh Singh, Aarti Singh, Rinki Devi, and Soram Devi — beneficiaries of the Birsa Harit Gram Yojna from Peerhay village under Bansdih panchayat. The amount to be recovered from each, including the Rs 500 fine, are Rs 8,622, Rs 9,975, Rs 4,561, and Rs 5,914, respectively. The eight were ordered to deposit the amounts at the earliest. The convictions followed the detection of irregularities in the Birsa Harit Gram Yojna by James Herenj, an executive committee member of the Jharkhand Social Audit Society. "The four beneficiaries possess no land of their own for Birsa Harit Gram Yojna but received money under the scheme each through surreptitious manner," James said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Could This NEW Collagen Blend Finally Reduce Your Cellulite?

The additional district programme co-ordinator of MGNREGA in Palamu and deputy development commissioner, M Jawed Hussain, said, "The contravention has been detected and legitimate actions drawn against all the eight."
