Road accident claims life of asst prof in med college at Karauli
1 2 Jaipur: A 35-year-old assistant professor from a medical college in Karauli lost her life after a tragic road accident Wednesday night. The victim, identified as Diksha Sirohi, was travelling on her scooter when a dumper truck ran over her, leading to fatal injuries. The accident occurred around 8pm near the Collectorate, in front of St John's School, as Sirohi was making her way from Madan Mohan Temple to her rented accommodation in the city. A CCTV footage retrieved from the area Thursday provided crucial evidence of the accident, capturing the moment of the collision. According to head constable Khem Singh from the Kotwali police station, the unfortunate sequence of events was triggered when a car parked by the roadside suddenly opened its door, causing Sirohi to collide and fall under the rear wheel of the passing truck. Despite being rushed to a nearby hospital, Sirohi succumbed to her injuries, leaving her family and colleagues in deep mourning. The driver of the dumper truck fled the scene immediately after the accident, prompting a swift police investigation. "An FIR has been filed, and we are actively pursuing the truck driver involved in the accident," said a police official. The officer added, "The CCTV footage clearly shows the sequence of events and we are confident that the accused will be apprehended soon." The victim's body was handed over to her grieving family following a post-mortem examination Thursday. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

Rajasthan Women's T20 Championship: Sirohi Team All-Out For 4 Runs, Selectors Under Fire
Last Updated: During a match, Rajasthan's Sirohi women's team was dismissed for four runs against Sikar in the Women's Senior T20 Championship Deepening rifts within Rajasthan cricket have begun spilling over onto the field, with the latest embarrassment coming in the ongoing Women's Senior T20 Championship. On Monday, during the match in Jaipur between Sikar and Sirohi, the Sirohi women's team was bundled out for just four runs, two of which came from extras, in one of the most lopsided contests in recent memory. The performance was nothing short of disastrous where 10 Sirohi batters were dismissed without scoring, while the only player to get off the mark managed just two runs. The meagre total quickly reignited debate over team selection, with critics openly questioning whether the selectors or the players should bear the blame. The incident has intensified scrutiny on the Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA), which has been mired in factional battles for over a year. Infighting, legal disputes, and power struggles have reportedly trickled down to district associations, affecting both resources and player development. Insiders allege that selections are increasingly based on influence rather than merit, with the Sirohi debacle serving as a glaring example of the consequences.

UP Man alleges 'towel-size' medical gauze found inside wife's body weeks after cesarean delivery
The pathology lab conducted the ultrasound test and then asked for an X-ray test, and subsequently a scan. "I gradually started feeling afraid and thought, why is the matter escalating?" he said. Kataria's fears worsened seeing the urgency with which the pathology lab carried out the CT-scan. He said an existing patient's test was stopped midway and his wife's CT-scan was conducted. He further said that when he asked the pathology lab to give him the reports, they refused and told him to first consult the gynaecologist, Sirohi. "When I reached the doctor's clinic, she was adamant about conducting a surgery. When I said that your nursing home is not equipped to conduct surgery, she said that she will remove the pus-like material using a syringe," he said. Kataria said he wanted a second opinion but Sirohi allegedly said there was no need for it and that his wife was "like a sister". Kataria also claimed that the pathologist tried every trick in the book to not give the report to him and relented only when he threatened to involve the police. He then took the appointment of another Ghaziabad-based doctor but claimed that by the time he reached her clinic, Sirohi had already called her "to not entertain" him. "My fears intensified. I asked the second doctor whether my wife needs to be admitted. She said that my wife must be admitted that very night itself, and there was no guarantee (of her being alive) the next day," Kataria said. "I realised that I have to admit my wife to a hospital in Delhi, and on the night of July 10, I took my wife and admitted her to a hospital in Patparganj (Delhi). Here, all tests were conducted on the night of July 10 itself. They could clearly see a foreign body in the tests," he said. Kataria said a surgery was planned for the next day (July 11). "After the surgery, which lasted for around 3 hours, a medical gauze, the size of a towel, was retrieved from inside my wife's body. Since that piece of cloth was inside her body for one-and-a-half months, it was attached to the ovary and other parts of the body," he claimed. Khurana was finally discharged on July 14, he said. Kataria said he has been getting calls from people saying that the Sirohis are influential people, and they dissuaded him from fighting them as it would be a long battle. "On July 16, I lodged a complaint with the chief medical officer. On July 17, I lodged a police complaint. Initially, the CMO assured me that he will take action against the doctor, but later he backtracked. A DCP-ranked officer, after five days, also said that an FIR be registered in the case, and issued instructions to the police station. When the copy of the complaint reached the CMO, he alleged "the CMO made a U-turn", saying his wife has not died while others have lost their wives and that their complaints are still pending for the past six months. "The CMO said that he wants to give one chance to the doctor (Sirohi)," Kataria said. When contacted, Ghaziabad Chief Medical Officer Dr Akhilesh Mohan on Monday told PTI, "A three-member team, which includes a gynaecologist, has been constituted to probe the matter. I have written a letter to the nursing home, where the treatment (cesarean delivery) was done. As soon as I get the letter, action will be taken." Dr Nishi Sirohi said she has received a letter from the CMO on the matter 3-4 days ago and that she has given her reply. "I feel that the person (Chirag Kataria) is speaking baseless things. The patient went from here in a proper condition. And (later), I told her that there is some pus in her stomach, and she should be admitted, so that treatment can be done after carrying out tests," she told PTI. "They did not come to me. And, now after one and a half months, I am getting this letter from the CMO. I will fully cooperate in the probe," she added.

Fast-food vendor duped of Rs 18L in Navratri stall fraud
Ahmedabad: A 54-year-old fast-food vendor from Ranip has lodged a police complaint alleging that he was cheated of Rs 18 lakh by a man who falsely posed as an event organiser for Navratri celebrations at two prominent party plots in the city. According to the FIR filed with Chandkheda police, the complainant, Satish Sirohi, stated that Vishal Shukla, a resident of New Shahibaug, collected the money on the pretext of allotting food and water stalls at Basera Party Plot on Ambli-Bopal Road and Chachar Chowk Party Plot in Nana Chiloda. Sirohi said he was introduced to Shukla by a mutual acquaintance in Aug 2024. During a visit to Sirohi's food stall in Chandkheda, Shukla pitched a business opportunity involving stall rentals at Navratri events. Though he initially proposed a partnership, Shukla later agreed to rent out stalls on a deposit basis.

However, when Navratri began in Oct 2024, Sirohi was allotted a stall only at Basera Party Plot. 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 He was denied space at Chachar Chowk and was unable to recover the Rs 8 lakh he had paid for it. Shukla allegedly avoided his calls and kept making excuses. Sirohi later discovered from the actual organiser, Pratik Patel, that Shukla had no official role in managing stalls at Chachar Chowk and had similarly duped others. Realising he had been scammed, Sirohi approached the police. Chandkheda police have registered an FIR against Shukla under charges of cheating and criminal breach of trust under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and have begun an investigation.

Political slugfest erupts in Rajasthan after 9,350 goats sent to Gulf for Eid
JAIPUR: A fresh controversy has erupted in Rajasthan just around the occasion of Eid ul Azha (Bakrid), as 9,350 goats have been exported from the state to Gulf countries via air cargo — a first for the desert state. Goats, belonging to the Shekhawati, Sirohi, and Bikaneri breeds, have been sent for ritual sacrifice, triggering a heated political exchange between the ruling BJP and the Opposition. Animal Husbandry and Devasthan Minister Zoraram Kumawat expressed concern over the export. 'Eid ul Azha may be important for any religion, but in our culture, animal sacrifice is not acceptable. These animals are not just livestock; they are a source of livelihood for breeders and contribute to Rajasthan's GDP,' Kumawat said. When asked if the government plans to restrict goat sacrifice during Bakrid, the minister clarified, 'There is no such plan at the moment. But killing animals is wrong.' His remarks invited a sharp rebuttal from Leader of Opposition Tikaram Jully, who accused the BJP of communal bias and double standards. 'The BJP only sees goats during Bakrid but remains silent on cow protection and beef exports. India is the world's top beef exporter today, but BJP leaders don't talk about that,' the Congress leader said. Taking a jibe at Kumawat, Jully added, 'The minister is a good man, but he has been misinformed. If he had seen the actual data, he wouldn't have made such a statement.' The Leader of Opposition also alleged that the BJP is once again trying to stoke religious sentiments. 'They use cows and goats as tools to divide communities. First ban beef exports, then talk about goats,' he said. The issue has quickly gained traction on social media, with religious and cultural organisations weighing in. Some criticized the government for allowing the export, while others condemned the political narrative being built around the festival. Each of the cargo flights to the Gulf transported between 450 and 950 goats, with individual shipments weighing between 500 kg to 15,000 kg. The first consignment departed on May 1, marking the beginning of this year's export activities. The increasing frequency of direct flights from Jaipur to Gulf destinations is positioning the city as a pivotal hub for the export of sacrificial goats.
