Licensed surveyors trained for Bhu Bharati prog
Mahabubnagar: In a significant step towards the effective implementation of the Bhu Bharati programme, a one-day training programme was organised on Sunday for newly appointed Licensed Surveyors at the Zilla Parishad Conference Hall in Mahabubnagar district headquarters. The training was aimed at equipping the surveyors with essential knowledge and practical skills to execute the provisions of the Act in a seamless manner.
The session was inaugurated by District Collector Vijyendra Boyi, who emphasised the importance of accurate land records for ensuring transparency and resolving land disputes. Speaking at the event, the Collector urged the surveyors to approach their responsibilities with commitment and integrity, as they play a crucial role in transforming land governance in the district.
Kishan Rao, Assistant Director, Survey and Land Records, in a statement, highlighted that the training is a key component of the state's ongoing land reforms under the Bhoo Bharati programme. He informed that the newly licensed surveyors were carefully selected to support the programme's objectives and that their services would be vital for conducting precise surveys, updating land records, and facilitating the digitalisation process.
The training session covered various topics, including the legal framework of the Bhoo Bharati Act, technical aspects of land surveying, use of modern survey equipment, and digital tools for record maintenance. The surveyors were also briefed on field-level challenges and best practices to ensure accuracy in measurements and documentation.
All the Licensed Surveyors were instructed to attend the session promptly at 9:30 pm, and their enthusiastic participation reflected the commitment to contribute to the initiative.

2 days after rape and murder of minor girl, accused still at large
Two days after the rape and murder of a nine-year-old girl in north-east Delhi's Nehru Vihar, the search for the accused, who allegedly sexually assaulted the girl and killed her before stuffing her body in a suitcase, continues to remain under way. 'The hunt for the accused is on. Multiple teams of the Special Cell, Crime Branch, and district police unit are conducting raids to nab him,' said a senior police officer. The accused, who ran a food stall in the area, is suspected to have fled the scene immediately after committing the crime. During the preliminary investigation, the police found that the accused had been residing in that area for the past nearly nine months. 'Argument with wife' 'A few days back, during an argument with his wife he threw stones at her, after which she did not come back to him,' said Shakeela, a neighbour. On Sunday, a case was registered under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Section 6 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, which deals with aggravated penetrative sexual assault. The incident has sparked widespread protests by residents, who have demanded strict punishment for the accused.

Foreign aid and financial woes
When reports last week stated that the Chief Minister's Relief Fund of Maharashtra had been allowed to receive foreign contributions under the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act (FCRA), the CPI(M)-led Left government in Kerala was quick to depict this as yet another act of discrimination against the southern State by the Centre. It recalled that the Centre had declined the Kerala government's plea for accepting foreign aid in the days following the 2018 floods — a catastrophe that left large-scale destruction in its wake. Kerala Finance Minister K.N. Balagopal said that while his State welcomed the approval for Maharashtra, it believed that it was unbecoming of the Central government to indulge in 'political bias' in moments of great crisis. He stressed that it is important that the Centre treats every State equally. He added that it was unfortunate that politics, and not the scale of disasters, had become the yardstick in such matters. This was an apparent reference to the fact that the BJP-led Mahayuti coalition governs Maharashtra. In the aftermath of the floods, the Centre had sparked a controversy by declining permission for Kerala to accept foreign aid, including a reported ₹700 crore offer from the UAE. Kerala's discomfiture with the foreign aid nod to Maharashtra is the latest episode in a protracted stand-off between the State and Centre. Kerala believes that it is being discriminated against, and denied its fair share of financial resources by the Centre. It has repeatedly complained about drastic cuts in financial allocations to it, and the 'unfair limits' placed on its fiscal space. The Kerala government had taken the battle over restrictions on its borrowing capacity to the Supreme Court. On the political front, the CPI(M)-led Left Democratic Front (LDF) has consistently accused the Centre of attempting to 'financially choke' Kerala. It has blamed the Centre's skewed policies for the State's financial woes. The State government believes that recent Union Budgets have also caused disappointment to the State, as they have ignored pressing demands on the financial front. For instance, Kerala's plea for a ₹24,000 crore economic package to prop up its finances were not mentioned in the 2024-25 and 2025-26 Union Budgets. More recently, the government slammed the Union Finance Ministry for cutting a little over ₹3,300 crore from its borrowing limit for the 2025-26 fiscal under the pretext of the Guarantee Redemption Fund. The foreign aid nod to Maharashtra also presented the LDF government an opportunity to reiterate its dismay over the Centre's approach to the deadly July 30, 2024, landslides in Wayanad district. In the aftermath of the tragedy, the Kerala government had announced plans for a structured rehabilitation programme, which included the building of townships with amenities for survivors. Mr. Balagopal said that the people of Kerala had, on two instances, expected Prime Minister Narendra Modi to announce special aid to Wayanad: first, when he visited that district in August last year; and second, when he visited Thiruvananthapuram to inaugurate the seaport at Vizhinjam. On both occasions, their hopes were dashed, he said. Time and again, Kerala has accused the BJP government of paying scant regard to cooperative federalism — the driving spirit of Centre-State relations. It is evident that the trust deficit between the two entities on financial matters persists, notwithstanding the much-discussed breakfast meeting that Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan hosted for Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman at New Delhi in March. It remains to be seen how Kerala's financial grievances concerning Union government policies will be addressed, as the southern State inches closer to a frenetic election season. The by-election in the Nilambur Assembly constituency in Malappuram district is scheduled to take place on June 19; elections to the rural and urban local bodies are scheduled to take place towards the end of 2025; and the Legislative Assembly polls are set to take place in the first half of 2026. In matters of State finances, Kerala will be keenly watching the recommendations made by the 16th Finance Commission led by Arvind Panagariya later this year. The State has sought a higher share of resources, arguing that its share of the divisible pool was brought down to 1.92% under the 15th Commission from 3.88% under the 10th.

Bundled consent mechanism likely to end as Meity plans stricter rules
DPDP Act may also ask intermediaries to keep detailed meta data records Aashish Aryan New Delhi Listen to This Article The government is likely to direct data fiduciaries, such as social media platforms and internet intermediaries, to obtain separate user consent for optional and mandatory services, doing away with the 'bundled' consent mechanism, according to people in the know. The move, expected as part of the administrative rules under the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, would mean that consent management systems must not include options that allow users to agree to all purposes simultaneously. 'The idea here is that both the data principal (users) and data fiduciaries are clear about the limitations. A user must know what they are
