Work hard with passion to achieve your goals, greater heights, scientist tells youth
Besides dreaming high about achieving the goals, the younger generation should have the passion for hard work to realise the dreams to enjoy unparalleled advancement in their career, Director of Indian Institute of Geomagnetism, Mumbai, A.P. Dimri said. Delivering his address in the 32nd convocation of Manonmaniam Sundaranar University here on Wednesday, Prof. Dimri said the students, who were entering the different phase of working in different fields should think about how well they would be remembered for their contribution to the family, the society and others. Since the future generation would follow only the deeds of success, today's students should develop passion for hard work and love for the chosen job, which alone would bring them success. He told the students that their success alone would narrate their stories to the future generations and hence they should work hard to conquer their dreams which should always be big. At the same time, the younger generation should learn from their failures as introspection and modified strategies would spell out the success mantra. Prof. Dimri, a winner of Grove Karl Gilbert Award for Excellence in geomorphological research for his research on Chamoli disaster, also known as Uttarakhand flood, said that as there was huge need for experts based on the emerging societal needs, the startups should come-up with solutions for net zero emissions, climate change, disaster management, all with new dimensions by integrating international and national policies.

Triptii Dimri on choosing ‘Dhadak 2': 'Vidhi taught me to speak my truth'
The actress also reflected on how the role affected her personally. 'I have been an introvert. I've seen and faced things, and not raised my voice against them. For 30 years of my life, I have kept quiet about so many things,' she admitted. Dimri revealed she had told director Shazia Iqbal that by the end of filming, she hoped to gain the courage to be more outspoken a transformation she says the role helped bring about. Dhadak 2 tells the poignant story of Nilesh (Siddhant Chaturvedi) and Vidhi (Triptii Dimri), two young lovers from starkly different social backgrounds. Their romance faces resistance from society, navigating the harsh realities of caste and class prejudice in modern India. Produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, along with Zee Studios, Cloud 9 Pictures, and a host of other collaborators, Dhadak 2 explores love, loss, and resistance in the face of societal pressure. The film is set to hit cinemas on 1 August 2025.

Court rejects bail plea of Rajasthan farmer accused of cyber fraud
Mumbai, A court has denied bail to a 35-year-old farmer from Rajasthan arrested in a cyber fraud case, ruling that it was a serious offence and posed a danger to the country's economy. The victim, a Navy man, was allegedly duped of ₹7.2 lakh after being threatened with digital arrest in a money laundering case in which senior NCP leader Nawab Malik was involved. Additional sessions judge Avinash Kulkarni, on June 13, rejected the bail plea of Ugraram Godara, arrested on April 8. In the detailed order available on Monday, the court noted that it was a "very serious crime". "The accused has played an important role in such an offence. This cyber-economic crime is a very serious crime which is a danger to the economy of this country. This offence impeaches the credibility of the Indian economy," the court held. According to the prosecution, the complainant, Anilkumar Dimri, an Indian Navy staffer, received a phone call, during which the caller claimed to be from TRAI. The caller informed Dimri that illegal money had been sent abroad from a bank account linked to his phone number, and he was made to believe that he was involved in a money laundering case in which senior politician Malik is an accused, the prosecution said. He later received a video call from another number, during which the caller pretended to be from the Delhi Police and threatened digital arrest. Dimri was instructed to transfer ₹7.2 lakh to a State Bank of India account to avoid arrest, the prosecution said. Realising that he had fallen victim to cyber fraud, Dimri approached the cyber fraud helpline. A case was registered, and Godara was arrested. Godara's lawyer argued that he was innocent and arrested merely on suspicion. His continued custody is not required, especially as he is a widower with a young daughter and an elderly father who is dependent on him, the defence submitted. The defence also highlighted that Godara only received ₹22,500 in this case. However, the court rejected his plea, stating that "considering the nature of offence", if released on bail, "there is a possibility that he may commit the same type of offence".
