AP students face admission hurdles over local study criteria
This is because students from the Sri Venkateswara University (SVU) unit area in Rayalaseema, who complete their junior and senior intermediate in the Andhra University (AU) jurisdiction and vice-versa, are deemed non-local candidates.
This peculiar rule has become a cause for concern for those students, particularly from the SVU unit region, as many parents from the Rayalaseema region, in a bid to provide better education enroll their wards in corporate colleges situated in and around Vijayawada.
For those uninitiated, the AU region comprises the erstwhile Srikakulam, Vizianagaram, Visakhapatnam, East Godavari, West Godavari, Krishna, Guntur, and Prakasam districts while the SVU region comprises Anantapur, Kurnool, Chittoor, Kadapa, and Nellore districts. Students will be regarded as local for the purpose of admission to institutions under the above two regions only when they fulfil a four-year consecutive study period (Class 9 to 12) in their respective region.

Even one year of study outside the region implies that the students become non-local candidates within the two region units of the state.
"Regarding this issue, the university will consider the highest study period of the candidate, i.e., from Class VI to Class XII. Students who pursue their class VI to X in one particular region unit will be defined as local even when their junior and senior intermediates are studied outside their region unit," Dr NTR University of Health Sciences assistant registrar Hari Krishna explained.

‘Situation is bad, will do whatever it takes to save lives. But it's a tough task'
Uttarakhand CM Puskhar Singh Dhami's chopper could land near disaster-hit Dharali only after five attempts on Wednesday. In an interaction with Kautilya Singh, the CM spoke about the current situation in the village and plans on how to take forward the rescue and relief ops. Excerpts: What is the present situation in Dharali? The area has got disconnected from the district headquarters. Due to heavy rains and landslides, roads leading to Dharali are damaged, so is an important bridge nearby. The helipad at Harshil is also hit, making heli operations even more difficult. To top it, communication networks have been disrupted. Power supply has snapped. The situation is adverse, but our rescue teams are putting their best efforts to save lives. It is a Herculean task. How many people are feared trapped in the debris? Some individuals have given wrong information that hundreds got trapped in the debris. This is completely wrong and misleading. According to our information, a total of 190 people were rescued, and 120 are from the right side of Dharali village area and 70 from the left. According to initial information, around five or six locals and some labourers might have got trapped under the debris. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like If you have a mouse, play this game for 1 minute Navy Quest Undo Two bodies were brought out. Going by fresh inputs, another dozen odd people might be trapped. Despite the hurdles, what is the progress of rescue ops? Teams from the Army, ITBP, SDRF, police and revenue department are carrying out rescue operations. Relief camps have been set up at Inter College Harsil, GMVN and Jhala. Simultaneously, efforts are underway to restore electricity and communication networks on a war footing. NIM and SDRF teams have begun constructing a temporary bridge at Limchagadh. At our request, the Centre has deployed two Chinooks and two MI-17 helicopters from Chandigarh, Sarsawa and Agra to Jolly Grant Airport early on Wednesday morning. Heavy machinery is being airlifted via Chinook helicopters to restore road connectivity. Around 125 Army personnel and 83 ITBP personnel are actively involved in rescue operations. BRO teams, including six officers and over 100 laborers, are working to clear blocked roads. Are there any tourists trapped at Dharali? So far, there is no information regarding tourists at Dharali. Besides, due to the monsoon, the number of pilgrims coming to Gangotri and other dhams has gone down considerably. I met the locals as well, but they did not give any information about tourists. There was a fair near the village on Tuesday, and it is said that around 100 to 150 people had gone there. With roads disconnected and helipad damaged, how do authorities plan to take the rescued people to hospital? This is a major challenge. We have planned a strategy to take the rescued persons from the Nelong side. A team of four doctors has already reached Harshil and efforts are on to bring them to Dharali at the earliest. Besides, a team of 13 specialists from Dehradun has been moved to Uttarkashi district hospital. A team of specialists has also been deployed at ITBP Matli and two more specialist doctors are scheduled to arrive at Uttarkashi on Thursday.

Donkey sent down zipline in Russia in bizarre stunt; shocking video surfaces
A bizarre incident unfolded in the Republic of Dagestan in Russia, where tour guides sent a donkey down a zipline over a cliff to attract attention from tourists. The donkey did not sustain any injury and landed safely. The videos of the incident surfaced on social media platforms, including X. The move was probably an attempt to boost tourism, but it sparked outrage, prompting police to say that charges couldn't be pressed against the guides as the donkey was not injured and there was no proof to confirm that the animal was traumatized.

In 2010, a donkey was made to parasail as part of an advertising stunt in southern Russia, the BBC reported, citing Russian media. The incident that took place back then (2010) prompted police in the area to launch an investigation into the matter. The donkey was sent up into the sky by entrepreneurs to attract people to their private beach. Witnesses near the beach on the Sea of Azov in the Krasnodar region state that the donkey was screaming in fear. The animal landed in the water and was pulled onto the shore, according to police. "The donkey screamed, and children cried," regional police spokeswoman Larisa Tuchkova told the AFP news agency. "No one had the brains to call the police." Bystanders, instead, clicked photographs and phoned newspapers, she said. Live Events "It was put up so high into the sky that the children on the beach cried and asked their parents: 'Why did they tie a doggy to a parachute?'" Taman newspaper reported last week. "The donkey landed in an atrocious manner: it was dragged several meters along the water, after which the animal was pulled out half-alive onto the shore," the paper reported. Police began to investigate after the incident, which occurred at the coastal village of Golubitskaya.
