Oppn seeks rly min's sacking, blames influx of migrants for overcrowding
Mumbai: While CM Devendra Fadnavis described the incident where eight passengers fell off a local train as unfortunate, minister Girish Mahajan said the state govt would give Rs 5 lakh each to the kin of the deceased. State Cong press chief Harshwardhan Sapkal demanded the resignation of railway minister Ashwini Vaishnaw for the local train accident in which four people lost their lives in Thane district. Sapkal also demanded a compensation of Rs 25 lakh for the families of the deceased. He claimed that the Central and state govts were responsible for the local train accident. Sapkal accused the railway minister of being ignorant about improving facilities and demanded his resignation. In a post on X, he condoled the deaths and said that for the last 11 years, the people of Maharashtra and Mumbai have been listening to empty talk about infrastructure and ease of travel for Mumbaikars. MNS president Raj Thackeray blamed the influx of migrants from other states to Mumbai for the "collapse" of the railway system. Raj also questioned the rationale for demanding the installation of automatic door closure mechanisms in local trains, considering the rush of commuters. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025 Top Trending local enterprise accounting software [Click Here] Esseps Learn More Undo NCP (SP) president Sharad Pawar has appealed to the Central Railway administration to implement measures like installing automatic doors in suburban trains in view of overcrowding. "A flood of people coming to Mumbai from outside led to the collapse of the railway system. But everyone is busy campaigning for elections," Pawar said. "It is very unfortunate that a total of eight passengers fell from a local train between Diva-Mumbra station and some of them lost their lives. The railway administration is probing the cause of the accident," CM Fadnavis said. Shiv Sena (UBT) MLA Aaditya Thackeray said the incident is extremely heartbreaking. "The unfortunate death of some passengers who were standing at the door of a local train heading towards Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus between Diva-Mumbra station was caused by an express train coming from the opposite direction. This incident is extremely heartbreaking. Emotional tribute to the deceased passengers," Aaditya said in a post on X. "I am very disturbed by a terrible accident this morning near the Mumbra station. Thousands of travellers come from this route every morning. I am involved in the misery of the family of the deceased. Instructions have been directed to the hospitals in Thane and Kalwa. I have also talked to the doctor myself. It is an unfortunate incident that an inquiry into the accident has been launched by the railway and it will immediately be confronted by the inquiry," said DCM Eknath Shinde.

Handcuffed & crying: Indian student's US airport ordeal sparks outrage; Indian embassy responds
An Indian-American entrepreneur, Kunal Jain , shared a video on X showing an Indian student being handcuffed by police at Newark airport . Jain, a social entrepreneur and Hindi author who recently moved to India, highlighted the incident on social media. He also tagged the Minister of External Affairs, S. Jaishankar adding that the young boy was supposed to board the same flight as him but didn't. "I witnessed a young Indian student being deported from Newark Airport last night— handcuffed, crying, treated like a criminal. He came chasing dreams, not causing harm. As an NRI, I felt helpless and heartbroken. This is a human tragedy," wrote Jain while tagging the Indian embassy in the US. Reacting to the video, the Indian Embassy in New York on Monday said that it was in touch with local authorities in this regard and the Consulate remains ever committed to the welfare of Indian Nationals.

We are in touch with local authorities in this regard." (Join our ETNRI WhatsApp channel for all the latest updates) Video spark online outrage His post has gone viral all over social media with people reposting it and news websites covering it. The incident marks one of the many atrocities being faced by Indian students who are fearful and unsure of their future in America. Live Events — SONOFINDIA (@SONOFINDIA) Many people commented on Jain's post, condemning him for posting the incident and not staying around to help the young student. "So easy to write stories. If you were that concerned why didn't you get him released?" wrote a person. Others questioned the reason why Indian students went to America for higher studies in the first place with the high cost and low safety the country ensures. "Now US is not your dream land. It has become hell for you." "Indian students must seriously rethink studying in the US. It's no longer the dreamland we were sold. The reality today is stark; rising violence, internal strife, racial discrimination, and institutions overrun with woke nonsense," wrote another. A person marked how the way the student was being dealt with in public was not justified, writing, "Irrespective of his status, situation, language which you might not understand or you might not convince with his answers, totally agree. But not a way to treat in front of everyone like this." Another shared how being deported might just be a good thing for the student with India's rising development. "Deported to India? Why should he be sad? I mean he is going back to a rising superpower!" While most social media users were offended on behalf of the students, others asked if he had legally migrated to the States. "Sorry but he has an illegal status. He should be deported. He can come back to his country. There is no shortage of dreams here."

Russia Ukraine war: Moscow launches nearly 500 drones for bombardment, biggest attack in three-year war
Russia launched almost 500 drones at Ukraine in the biggest overnight drone bombardment of the three-year war, the Ukrainian air force said Monday, as the Kremlin pressed its summer offensive amid direct peace talks that have yet to deliver progress on stopping the fighting. Despite the difficulties in reaching a ceasefire, Russia and Ukraine swapped another batch of prisoners of war on Monday. In addition to the 479 drones, 20 missiles of various types were fired at different parts of Ukraine from Sunday to Monday, according to the air force, which said the barrage targeted mainly central and western areas. Ukraine's air force said its air defences intercepted and destroyed 277 drones and 19 missiles, claiming only 10 drones or missiles hit their targets. Officials said one person was injured. It was not possible to independently verify the claims. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Join new Free to Play WWII MMO War Thunder War Thunder Play Now Undo A recent escalation in aerial attacks has coincided with a renewed Russian battlefield push along eastern and northeastern parts of the roughly 1,000-kilometre front line. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said late Sunday that in some of those areas, 'the situation is very difficult.' He provided no details. Live Events Ukraine is short-handed on the front line against its bigger enemy and needs more military support from its Western partners, especially air defences. But uncertainty about the US policy on the war has fuelled doubts about how much help Kyiv can count on. Ukraine has produced some stunning counter-punches, however. Its June 1 drone attack on distant Russian air bases was unprecedented in its scope and sophistication. Russia intensifies its attacks The Ukrainian General Staff said special operations forces struck two Russian fighter jets stationed at the Savasleyka airfield in Russia's Nizhny Novgorod region located about 650 kilometres northeast of the Ukrainian border. The statement did not say how the planes were hit and there was no immediate comment on the claim from Russian authorities. Some Russian war bloggers said there was no damage to the warplanes. Russian officials have said the recent intensified assaults are part of a series of retaliatory strikes for Ukraine's drone attack on air bases that were hosting nuclear-capable strategic bombers. A strike on a Ukrainian air base in Dubno, in the western Rivne region, was one such response, the Russian Defense Ministry said Monday. Two recent rounds of direct peace talks between Russian and Ukrainian delegations in Istanbul have yielded no significant breakthroughs beyond pledges to swap prisoners as well as thousands of their dead and seriously wounded troops. Russian President Vladimir Putin has indicated he will keep fighting until his conditions are met. FAQs Q1. Who is President of Russia? A1. President of Russia is Vladimir Putin. Q2. Who is President of Ukraine? A2. Ukraine's President is Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
