'Trump leading America in a direction no one understands,' says Defence Expert
Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir has once again threatened India, warning that Islamabad would plunge the region into nuclear war and could take "almost half of the world" down if faced with an existential threat in a future conflict with New Delhi. In response to these threats and recent hints from Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi that the next war may happen soon, Captain Anil Gaur, Defence Expert, while speaking to ANI, commented on the evolving geopolitical situation.

Asim Munir has positioned himself as the Field Marshal of Pakistan. When America was hunting for Osama Bin Laden, Pakistanis claimed he wasn't with them, but he was found there all along." He added, "You must have heard that Donald Trump's son has finalised a crypto deal with Pakistan. Complete control will be in Donald Trump's hands." Captain Gaur further noted, "Meanwhile, Trump is also exploring oil reserves in Balochistan for mining purposes. I believe these are the reasons he is indulging Asim Munir so much." Live Events He stated, "If they believe this is meant to intimidate India, they're mistaken, because Operation Sindoor has shown that India is capable of taking action and doing so in a way that Pakistan cannot counter." Referring to America's current state, Captain Gaur said, "The way Donald Trump is steering America, he needs to reconsider. America is the strongest nation, but I hope it does not decline because of these decisions." On Operation Sindoor, he said, "Operation Sindoor is far from over. This has been made very clear. Any action initiated by Pakistan now will be considered an act of war." Captain Gaur highlighted recent infiltration attempts, saying, "We have witnessed how infiltration attempts have taken place in the Uri and Poonch sectors." Echoing the Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi, he said, "I agree with Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi whenever we decide to act, we don't need permission from any country. This is the new India. Our mindset and approach have transformed."

Kerala Doctor Duped Of Rs 4.43 Crore In WhatsApp Trading Scam, Two Arrested
The Kerala police detected as many as 18 more accounts in the name of various individuals to transfer the money earned through online fraud. A doctor in Kerala was scammed of Rs 4.43 crore after falling victim to a fraudulent WhatsApp scheme. The state's cybercrime unit has arrested two men in connection with the case, according to officials quoted by IANS. The accused have been identified as Mehbubasha Farooq and Rijaz, and they were arrested in Chennai by the Kannur City Cyber Crime Police. While Farooq hails from Chennai, Rijaj is a resident of Perumbavoor in Ernakulam district and has been settled in Chennai. The two accused allegedly ran a scam via WhatsApp, luring the victim with promises of high returns from investments in a fake online trading platform. According to police, the accused added the doctor — a resident of Mattannur in Kerala's Kannur district — to a WhatsApp group in June, where they promoted an online share trading scheme and promised large profits. The victim was asked to send money to several bank accounts under the pretext of a 'wealth profit plan' linked to a fictitious company named Upstock. 'We have traced about Rs 40 lakh deposited by the accused in their accounts. Besides this, the police detected as many as 18 more accounts in the name of various individuals to transfer the money earned through online fraud. The matter is under investigation now," said the officer. He also confirmed that no links to terrorism had been uncovered during the inquiry. Though the trading app would show the profits earned, he found the platform unresponsive and could not withdraw the amount, prompting him to approach the police to file a complaint with the police on June 25. 'The victim was led to believe he was making lucrative investments, but the entire setup was a sham," the cyber police said. The incident came to light after the cybercrime team tracked down the suspects by following the trail of bank account numbers and mobile phones used in the fraud. A deeper investigation led them to Chennai, where the two accused were arrested. The officer added that they are now looking into whether a larger network is involved and if there are more victims connected to the online scam.

Free bus travel in Andhra for girls, women, transgender persons from Aug 15
Amaravati, Aug 11 (PTI) All girls, women, and transgender persons holding Andhra Pradesh domicile are eligible for free bus travel under the 'Stree Shakti' (woman power) scheme, to be launched statewide on August 15, Principal Secretary (Transport, Roads & Buildings) Kantilal Dande said on Monday. 'Beneficiaries include all girls, women, and transgender persons with domicile status in Andhra Pradesh, subject to presenting valid identity proof," Dande said in a government order. The scheme will be implemented using the existing fleet of the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC), with additional buses to be procured based on demand, he added. Free travel will apply only to Pallevelugu, Ultra Pallevelugu, City Ordinary, Metro Express, and Express services. It will not cover non-stop services, interstate operations, contract carriages, chartered services, or package tours. Saptagiri Express, Ultra Deluxe, Super Luxury, Star Liner, and all air-conditioned services are also excluded, he said. For passenger safety, the government is considering equipping staff with body-worn cameras and installing CCTV cameras in all buses. Bus stations will see upgraded amenities such as fans, chairs, drinking water, and toilets. Dande said the procurement of electric buses and extending the scheme to them could also be considered, subject to Cabinet approval. Free bus travel for women was a poll promise of the TDP-led NDA government ahead of the 2024 elections. The scheme is estimated to cost Rs 1,942 crore annually—about Rs 162 crore a month—and aims to empower women by improving access to education, jobs, and mobility, Minister K Parthasarathy had earlier said.
