ED summons Google & Meta officials for questioning under PMLA Act
New Delhi, July 19 (UNI) The ED or Enforcement Directorate issued a legal notice to tech giants Meta and Google in an illegal betting app probe. ED summoned representatives from both companies to appear at its Delhi headquarters on July 21 2025. The Enforcement Directorate is a law enforcement agency of the Government of India. It is a watchdog of economic laws and combat financial crimes. The Enforcement Directorate alleged that both Google and Meta platforms played an important role in promoting the betting apps, which are under observation for financial crimes.

Five new corporations take shape instead of Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike
Bengaluru: In what marks the first formal step taken to end the existence of Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike, the state govt Saturday came up with a draft notification that culminates in the creation of five civic corporations in the Greater Bengaluru Area (GBA). The new civic bodies are: Bengaluru West City Corporation, Bengaluru South City Corporation, Bengaluru North City Corporation, Bengaluru East City Corporation, and Bengaluru Central City Corporation. While the total extent of the GBA would be the same as that of BBMP, at 712 sqkm, each of the new city corporations covers an area ranging between 78 sqkm and 168 sqkm. Each corporation will comprise 2-10 assembly constituencies. Five constituencies will be split between two city corporations. While Bengaluru South City Corporation will be the largest with nine assembly segments, Bengaluru East Corporation will have only two assembly seats: Mahadevapura (excluding Bellandur area) and KR Pura. In fact, Bellandur in the tech corridor, which is a maximum revenue-generating pocket, has been added to Bengaluru South City Corporation. Localities in Rajarajeshwari Nagar assembly constituency have been divided into three corporations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo You Can Also Check: Bengaluru AQI | Weather in Bengaluru | Bank Holidays in Bengaluru | Public Holidays in Bengaluru The draft notification to form five city corporations follows extensive deliberation by the Brand Bengaluru Expert Committee (BBEC), which carried out multiple simulations and studies based on population, density, infrastructure, property tax revenue, and administrative feasibility. The committee had concluded that five corporations struck the best balance between scalability, administrative manageability, and citizen convenience. Citizen convenience and easy accessibility of all services to the citizens and larger participation was also taken note of before recommending the five corporations. All the new corporations vary in area, population, and revenue. Bengaluru West is projected to have the largest population at 4.5 million, while Bengaluru Central will be the most densely populated, with 32,051 persons per sqkm. Each corporation is expected to be financially viable, with projected property tax collections ranging from Rs 543 crore (North) to Rs 912 crore (East) annually, totalling over Rs 3,400 crore across all five. Among the area, East City Corporation will be the largest spread over 168 sq km and Central Corporation will be the smallest with a 78 sqkm area. Post the final notification, the five new corporations will each have their own commissioner, council, budget, and administrative machinery. Over 15 simulations Confronted with the ground reality of lower population and higher revenue in the eastern parts, higher population and lower revenue in the western parts, the BBEC experts carried out more than 15 simulations to minimise the property tax differences across new corporations. The committee initially tried dividing five corporations with Rs 100 crore differences across all corporations but it had to be dropped as east zone lacked the one-million population mandate. Efforts to carve out corporations considering the arterial roads as boundaries resulted in disturbing the boundaries of assembly constituencies. Any objections? If there are any objections or suggestions pertaining to the draft notification, the urban development department has stated that the samecan be communicated formally within 30 days to the additional chief secretary, urban development department, Room-436, 4th floor, Vikasa Soudha, Dr B R Ambekar Veedhi, Bengaluru – 560001.

Govt to distribute 10k high-yielding cows to farmers: CM
1 2 3 Bhubaneswar: State govt will distribute 10,000 high-milk yielding cows to farmers under the Mukhyamantri Kamadhenu Yojana, announced chief minister Mohan Charan Majhi on Saturday. An MoU was signed between the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) and the Odisha State Cooperative Milk Producers' Federation (Omfed) in Cuttack on Saturday, under which NDDB will facilitate the supply of 3,000 to 4,000 high-milk-yielding cows of Gir, Sahiwal and cross-bred varieties to dairy farmers in the state. Plans are also underway to set up a biogas plant with NDDB's support, aiming at sustainable energy and added income for livestock owners. Majhi launched milk powder packaging machines and handed over 22 new milk tankers to various dairy societies. Built at an investment of Rs 7.5 crore, the capacity of the tankers ranges from 2,000 to 15,000 litres. Additionally, three advanced milk packaging machines worth Rs 3.5 crore were inaugurated to increase processing capacity. "The initiatives will enhance milk procurement from farmers, with the state aiming to increase its current daily milk production of 72 lakh litres to 165 lakh litres by 2036 and 274 lakh litres by 2047," Majhi said. He further said that a contract has been signed between Omfed and Shree Jagannath Temple Administration for supplying around 30 metric tonnes of ghee for Mahaprasad and other rituals. Besides, the federation is now focusing on producing value-added dairy products such as paneer, butter, chhenapoda, ice cream, flavoured milk, mishti doi, peda and rabdi, among others. "These initiatives are also opening new income avenues for Odisha's youth," Majhi said. During the event, the CM interacted with dairy farmers, inquiring about their challenges and receiving feedback. The event was attended by minister for fisheries and animal resources development Gokulananda Mallik, Cuttack MP Bhartruhari Mahtab, Omfed chairman Kishore Chandra Pradhani, NDDB dairy services director Debanand, Omfed director Vijay Amrut Kulange, among others.
