<p>The Bombay High Court has acquitted all 12 convicts in the 2006 Mumbai serial train bombings, citing a lack of evidence. The court on Monday overturned the death sentences of five convicts and dismissed the Maharashtra government&#8217;s appeal seeking confirmation of the sentences.</p>



<p>On 11 July 2006, seven serial blasts ripped through crowded Mumbai local trains, killing 189 people and injuring over 800. RDX was used in the explosions, and the Indian Mujahideen was blamed for the attacks.</p>



<p>In 2015, a special TADA court convicted 12 out of 15 accused. Five received the death penalty, and seven were given life imprisonment. However, the Bombay High Court overturned the lower court&#8217;s decision, acquitting all and ordering their release from prison.</p>



<p>The court was not satisfied with the evidence and testimonies presented by the prosecution, leading to the acquittal of all 12 convicts. The bench of Justices Anil Kilore and S. Chandak stated that the prosecution&#8217;s evidence lacked a solid foundation. The accused, who were held in Yerwada, Nasik, Amravati, and Nagpur jails in Maharashtra, were presented in court via video conferencing.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How the Fraud Occurred?</h2>



<p>The GST system allows companies to claim tax paid on raw material purchases as ITC. The fraudulent companies misused this provision by creating fake invoices without any actual transactions and obtained refunds of thousands of crores of rupees through ITC. According to officials, this scam is 29% higher than last year, when 3,840 companies committed fraud worth ₹12,304 crore in the first quarter.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Action Taken</h2>



<p>GST officials have so far arrested 53 people in this case and recovered ₹659 crore. However, this amount is significantly less than the total loss. The fact that over 25,000 fake companies were involved in a ₹61,545 crore scam during the previous financial year highlights the seriousness of the problem.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Government&#8217;s Challenge</h2>



<p>Officials say that the number of fake companies is constantly increasing. The government has taken several steps to curb this, but much work remains to be done. Special drives are being conducted to prevent GST fraud, such as the one launched in May-June 2023, which uncovered a ₹30,000 crore scam across 16 states.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Expert Advice</h2>



<p>Experts believe that technological improvements in the GST system, stricter monitoring, and the use of data analytics can curb such fraud. The government plans to further strengthen digital tracking and Aadhaar-PAN based verification to prevent such scams in the future.</p>


<p>A major fraud case has come to light in the first quarter of the current financial year, in which 3,558 fake companies caused a loss of over ₹15,851 crore to the government.</p>

<p>India&#8217;s troubles in the five-Test series against England show no signs of abating. After three Tests, India already trails 1-2, and now faces a series of setbacks. </p>



<p>Reports indicate that Indian fast bowler Arshdeep Singh and pace all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy have been ruled out of the Manchester Test due to injury. Fast bowler Akash Deep is also reportedly injured and his participation is uncertain. This raises significant questions about the playing XI ahead of the fourth Test, starting Wednesday, 23 July, for head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Shubman Gill.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Nitish Injured in the Gym</h2>



<p>Reports suggest that Nitish Kumar Reddy injured his knee while working out in the gym. Scans have confirmed ligament damage. The injury occurred during training on Sunday. This is a major blow to the Indian team, already struggling with injuries to its fast bowlers, ahead of the fourth Test.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Arshdeep Singh and Akash Deep Already Injured</h2>



<p>Meanwhile, fast bowler Arshdeep Singh sustained a hand injury while catching the ball during net practice. He has received stitches. Akash Deep is also suffering from back pain; he complained of back pain on the fourth day of the third Test. His participation is also doubtful. The simultaneous injury of three fast bowlers could pose a significant problem for Team India.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shardul Thakur&#8217;s Return</h2>



<p>Following the injuries to Arshdeep Singh and Akash Deep, Anshul Kamboj, a fast bowler from Karnal, Haryana, has been included in the Indian team. If Nitish Reddy is unavailable due to injury, Shardul Thakur, who played in the Leeds Test but was subsequently dropped from the playing XI for the next two matches, could be given an opportunity.</p>

<p><strong>Ajay Devgn meets Shahid Afridi at WCL:</strong> Following the cancellation of the India vs Pakistan match at the World Championship of Legends (WCL 2025), the event organisers have faced considerable controversy. The two arch-rival teams&#8217; legends were scheduled to face off at Edgbaston Cricket Ground, Birmingham on Sunday, 20 July. However, the organisers announced the match&#8217;s cancellation via social media prior to the match, sparking outrage. Many Indian fans questioned former Indian cricketers&#8217; decision to play against Pakistan following the Pahalgam terror attack. Amidst this, photos of Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn meeting Shahid Afridi have gone viral on social media. Let&#8217;s uncover the truth behind these pictures.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ajay Devgn is a co-owner of the World Championship of Legends</h2>



<p>It&#8217;s important to note that Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn is a co-owner of the World Championship of Legends T20 tournament. He was seen at Edgbaston, Birmingham during the tournament&#8217;s inaugural season last year. While the India-Pakistan match has been cancelled this time, fans are expressing anger over Ajay Devgn&#8217;s meeting with Pakistani legend Shahid Afridi during the event.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shahid Afridi&#8217;s controversial remarks after the Pulwama terror attack</h2>



<p>Following the Pahalgam terror attack, the Indian army targeted Pakistani terrorist bases in an operation codenamed &#8216;Operation Sindoor&#8217;. Former Pakistani cricketer Shahid Afridi made derogatory remarks about the Indian army during this time. He even held a victory parade after the ceasefire. </p>

<p>A tragic incident occurred on Saturday evening at Are-Ware beach, a popular tourist spot in Ratnagiri district, Maharashtra, where four tourists from Thane-Mumbra drowned in the sea. The deceased include three women and one man. The incident happened around 6:30 pm when the tourists were enjoying themselves near the shore and were caught in strong waves.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bodies Recovered Within Half an Hour</h2>



<p>According to eyewitnesses, the four tourists were swept away by sudden strong waves while bathing in the sea. Local villagers and fishermen immediately launched a rescue operation, but it was too late. The bodies of all four were recovered within approximately 30 minutes. The deceased have been identified as Junaid Kazi, Jainab Kazi, Uzma Sheikh, and Umera Sheikh, all residents of Mumbra, Thane.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Warning Already in Place</h2>



<p>The local administration had already issued a &#8220;No Swimming&#8221; warning at Are-Ware beach, as strong waves and dangerous currents are common during the monsoon season. However, the tourists ignored this warning, resulting in this tragic incident. Upon receiving information about the accident, Senior Inspector Rajendra Yadav of Ratnagiri Police Station, along with his team, reached the scene, conducted a panchnama (official report), and initiated a preliminary investigation.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Demand for Deployment of Guards</h2>



<p>Locals have demanded that the administration deploy guards at sensitive coastal areas like Are-Ware during the monsoon season and impose restrictions on tourists. They also stated that such accidents occur due to negligence in the allure of natural beauty. The administration has appealed to people to follow weather department warnings and strictly adhere to safety guidelines in coastal areas.</p>

India&#39;s first high-speed rail trial track being built in Rajasthan; bullet train to run at 200 kmph


<p><strong>Sambhar Salt Lake:</strong> India&#8217;s first high-speed railway trial track, under construction on the Jaipur-Jodhpur rail route, appears to be stuck in bureaucratic red tape. Even after three years, the railway authorities have not received permission to lay 2.5 km of track in the Sambhar Lake area. This makes it difficult for the project to commence on schedule, inevitably increasing both time and cost for the railways. Furthermore, the trial of bullet trains in Rajasthan is also facing uncertainty.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">80% Complete, Yet Challenges Remain</h2>



<p>In 2019-20, the railways announced a budget for a 64 km long high-speed (200 km/h) trial track on the Jaipur-Jodhpur rail route, with work commencing in 2020. More than 80% of the work is now complete. According to railway officials, this track is proposed to run from Gudha near Nawal to Meethri, alongside Sambhar Lake. However, a 2.5 km section through the Sambhar Lake wetland area is stalled due to a lack of clearance from the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.</p>



<p>Numerous proposals have been sent to the state government and the ministry over the past three years, but objections have been raised each time. According to railway officials, several technical works are also stalled due to the delay in the lake area. The track cannot be operational until this section is completed. The target is to commission it by December, but this seems unlikely.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="640" height="320" src="https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_cd2e32.png" alt="Three pictures of Sambhar Lake, Patrika Photo" class="wp-image-19794190" srcset="https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_cd2e32.png 640w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_cd2e32.png?resize=300,150 300w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /></figure>



<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Problem: Ramsar Site vs. National Project</h2>



<p>The state government&#8217;s State Wetland Authority argues that Sambhar Lake is an internationally recognised Ramsar site, where new construction is restricted. However, the railways contend that several rail tracks for salt transportation and the main Jaipur-Jodhpur railway line already exist in the lake area. Therefore, obstructing a mere 2.5 km track is incomprehensible. The railways are now preparing to communicate with the state government again to secure approval.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1200" height="800" src="https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_a8a9d6.png?w=640" alt="Salt production in Sambhar Lake, Patrika Photo" class="wp-image-19794186" srcset="https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_a8a9d6.png 1200w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_a8a9d6.png?resize=300,200 300w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_a8a9d6.png?resize=768,512 768w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_a8a9d6.png?resize=1024,683 1024w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_a8a9d6.png?resize=135,90 135w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/image_a8a9d6.png?resize=90,60 90w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" /></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Future: Bullet Train Trials, 200 kmph Speed</h2>



<p>According to railway officials, similar tracks are used for high-speed trials in countries like China, the USA, and Australia. In India, testing new trains or wagons requires halting traffic. The commissioning of this track will not only facilitate trials of new engines and coaches but will also allow for future testing of bullet train coaches. This could be a game-changer for the railways, enabling trials at speeds of 200 km/h.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Experts Warn: Delays Will Have Serious Consequences</h2>



<p>Environmental and forestry experts believe that this is a nationally important project and that delays in approval should not occur, given the pre-existing tracks. They argue that this obstruction could jeopardise crores of rupees in investment and years of effort.</p>

<p><strong>Education Department Order:</strong> Important news has emerged for parents in Madhya Pradesh who send their children to private schools. The state government has revoked the recognition of 250 private schools across the state. This includes 12 schools in the capital city of Bhopal.</p>



<p>It is reported that the recognition was revoked because these schools lacked land documents. Some school operators did not possess sufficient land as per school standards, while others lacked necessary registration papers. This led to the department taking action.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">50 Schools Still Awaiting Decision</h2>



<p>The recognition process for schools offering classes 9th to 12th in the state involves an initial application to the Divisional Joint Director. If approval is not received, a second appeal is made to the Departmental Minister. 350 private schools&#8217; recognition cases reached the Departmental Minister. Of these, only 50 schools received recognition, while the recognition of another 50 schools has been put on hold. However, the recognition of 250 private schools has been revoked. This includes 12 schools in Bhopal, among which prominent names are Ankur Higher Secondary, Seven Hills, Preeti Higher Secondary, Rajapushpa, Parth, and Gyan Krishna School.</p>
