Man guns down 25 dogs, animal activists outraged
1 2 Jhunjhunu: A gruesome incident in Kumawas village, located in the Nawalgarh area of Jhunjhunu district, has sparked outrage by animal activists after at least two individuals were filmed shooting and killing more than 25 dogs. The horrific act was committed on Aug 2 and 3 but it wasn't until a video surfaced on social media on Wednesday that local police acted. The video footage shows two individuals on a motorcycle chasing and firing at stray dogs with a gun, leaving their bodies scattered across village streets and fields. Another person on a second bike is partially seen in the same video following and filming the duo on the first bike. It was unclear if the individual on second bike was complicit in the crime. Preliminary police probe later identified one of the accused as Shyochand Bavariya, a resident of Dumra village. Local police have registered a case against Bavariya under multiple sections of the Animal Cruelty Act and the Arms Act. The incident has sparked outrage among animal lovers and local residents, who are calling for strict action against the perpetrators. Superintendent of Police, Jhunjhunu, Brijesh Jyoti Upadhyay confirmed the video's authenticity and dispatched head constable Shubhkaran to the village for further investigation. "We are aware of the video showing a person shooting at dogs in Kumawas village. Immediate steps were taken to investigate the matter," Upadhyay said.

CM: TN has double digit growth of 11.19%
Chennai: Chief minister M K Stalin said TN has become the fastest growing state in the country overcoming multiple challenges. Citing a Union ministry of statistics report, Stalin said on Wednesday that TN's economic growth rate has touched 11.19%, surging past the previous estimate of 9.69%. State has achieved the double digit growth rate after 14 years, he said after distributing appointment orders to youth recruited by state municipal administration department. "We have reached the milestone after crossing multiple hurdles and slander," Stalin said. He said DMK would not remain content with this accomplishment, but would take efforts to reach higher up, through concerted efforts in Dravidian model govt 2.0.

It's too ambitious, they said. But with growth like this, what once seemed distant is now well within reach," he posted on X. State finance minister Thangam Thennarasu attributed the double-digit growth rate to financial prudence. "Double digit growth rate in real terms is yet another feather in the hat of Dravidian model govt. The growth was possible due to our financial prudence. We have not only boosted our GSDP but boosted the economy of the country as well," Thennarasu told reporters at Anna Arivalayam.

Kanpur cops launch Op Mahakal against land mafia, extortionists
Kanpur: In a major crackdown on land mafia and extortion networks, the Kanpur Commissionerate Police on Tuesday launched Operation Mahakal, a month-long campaign aimed at identifying and taking legal action against those involved in illegal land grabbing and criminal intimidation. Commissioner of Police Akhil Kumar formally inaugurated the initiative, which will unfold in two phases — complaint collection and verification in the first phase, followed by concrete action in the second. The first FIR under this operation was registered at the Jajmau police station on Wednesday. The complainant, Sahib Anwar, a resident of Jajmau, alleged that unknown individuals had defamed him on social media and demanded money, prompting police to begin investigations under the new operation. The campaign targets both direct offenders and their systemic enablers. A notable feature of the initiative is the focus on government employees who allegedly aid such criminal networks. "The operation will focus on two categories," said CP Akhil Kumar. "The first includes individuals or organised groups who forcibly occupy private or government land, buildings, or plots using fraud, threats, or coercion for commercial gain. The second category includes white-collar individuals — especially govt officials— who misuse their official positions to support such criminal activities or exploit the public by invoking fear of legal consequences for personal benefit." Departments under scrutiny include police, revenue, Kanpur Development Authority, municipal corporation, transport department, and registry offices. The police have appealed to the public to come forward with credible complaints, assuring swift and strict action against all involved, irrespective of their influence or position.
