Time of India20-07-2025
Ludhiana: The patwari of a BDPO office is among two booked for alleged fraud related to the issuance of a fake NOC for a residential colony. The accused have been identified by Ludhiana rural police as Jagtar Singh, patwari at Jagraon BDPO office, and Rachpal Singh Gabria.
The complaint against them was lodged by Mandeep Jindal and Indrajit Singh, residents of Govind Nagar in New Shimlapuri here.
ASI Balwinder Singh said in their complaint, they told police that a residential colony was built on 35 acres of land in Jagraon's Agwad Gujjar. To get that approved, they applied for a licence from Glada. Letters regarding the issuance of NOC were issued by Glada to various departments.
The complainants told police that after obtaining NOCs from 13 departments, they submitted the same to the office of Glada.
They said they contacted their acquaintance, Mandeep Singh, to get one of the NOCs from the BDPO office in Jagraon, as he works as a patwari in the BDPO office, Ludhiana.
The complainants said they were asked to submit the relevant documents to Patwari Jagtar Singh, posted at the BDPO office in Jagraon. They complied and provided the documents to Patwari Jagtar Singh on his request. Subsequently, the NoC issued by the BDPO of panchayat samiti, Jagraon, regarding their colony was sent to them by Jagtar Singh through their acquaintance.

The ASI said the complainant told the police that they submitted the entire file to the Glada office, following which they Glada issued a project licence. They also submitted the fees, bank guarantee, and other documents sought by Glada. However, BDPO Jagraon later called Indrajit Singh to his office, placed the copy of the NoC in front of him, and claimed that the signature on the NoC was not his.
According to the complainant, the BDPO asserted that the NOC was fake and returned the file submitted by Jagtar Singh Patwari on their behalf.
A letter was also sent to the office of Glada to inform them about the matter. The complainants said when they spoke to Jagtar Singh, he told them that Rachpal Singh Gabaria, an RTI activist, was filing complaints against them and had sent the copy of the NOC to the BDPO office.
The complainant alleged that the accused told them they had to pay a significant amount of money to Rachpal Singh Gabaria, else he would continue to blackmail them by submitting false applications against them. They subsequently lodged a police complaint regarding the matter. TNN

Two Hyderabad Teens Die By Suicide Within 5 Days

The deaths by suicide of two Class 10 students at a private school in Hyderabad, Sheikh Rizwan and K. Hansika, within days of each other, have raised disturbing questions about how schools and parents seem ill-equipped to understand and address the emotional complexities of teenage relationships and digital interactions. Shaikh Rizwan, 15, died by suicide on Saturday, July 19, after reportedly jumping from the fifth floor of his school building in Madhavnagar Colony, Miyapur. He sustained severe injuries and, despite being rushed to a nearby private hospital, succumbed during treatment. Miyapur police registered a case to probe the reasons behind his extreme step. Just five days later, on Thursday, July 24, K. Hansika, 14, a fellow Class 10 student, also died by suicide. She reportedly jumped from her apartment building in Janapriya Apartments, Miyapur, sustaining fatal injuries. Reports suggest that Rizwan and Hansika were friends and had been in contact on Instagram. The school had reportedly learned about it and called both the students and their parents to warn them about it. This had reportedly upset Rizwan, and that is suspected to be the reason he jumped off the school building. A particularly disturbing detail emerging from the investigation is the alleged role of the school principal. According to Hansika's father, after Rizwan's death, Hansika was reportedly told by the school principal to obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from Rizwan's parents if she wished to attend school and sit for her exams. This alleged demand, at a time of immense grief and emotional vulnerability for a young girl, has drawn sharp criticism and is being investigated by the police. Hansika's father has reportedly said she was deeply distressed after being denied an exam at school and allegedly being blamed by Rizwan's father for his son's suicide, with him reportedly telling Hansika to jump off the school building like his son. The police have now booked a case of abetment to suicide against the school management and the parents of Rizwan. "We have booked an abetment to suicide case against the school management and the parent of the boy, based on the complaint of the girl's father," Miyapur inspector Shiv Prasad told NDTV. The police are investigating the circumstances leading to the twin tragedies, questioning family members, friends and school staff, while also examining interactions on Instagram. What is now coming into focus is the role of the school authorities and parents, the capacity of schools and parents to maturely handle adolescent issues, highlighting critical gaps in how adolescent and teenage issues, including friendships, emotional distress, and online interactions, are understood and managed by youngsters, educational institutions and families.
