With multiple CCTVs strung on lamp posts around it, the house stands out in a Jafrabad neighbourhood in the Samserganj Assembly constituency, with a West Bengal police camp set up nearby. It belongs to Harogobindo Das and his son Chandan Das, who were hacked to death by a mob on April 11 last year, when protests held against the Centre’s amended Waqf law had turned violent in the area. About 20 kms away, in Kasimnagar village in the Suti constituency, the family of Ejaz Ahmed – who was the third fatality in that April 11 violence in Murshidabad district – also continues to grapple with their grief. Ejaz was killed after police allegedly opened fire on protesters at Sajurmore crossing at the National Highway 12. With barely two weeks to go for the Bengal Assembly elections, Harogobindo’s wife Parul Das tells The Indian Express: “We have not accepted any compensation from the Trinamool Congress (TMC) government. But the BJP has helped us. We had demanded a permanent BSF camp in our area, which has yet to come up. There …

A fortnight after his wife, Sonali Sood, and two of their relatives were injured in a road accident, actor Sonu Sood has stepped forward to share an “important” message, urging everyone to wear seat belts when riding in cars, even when sitting in the rear seats. Stating that his family was saved because all of them had worn seat belts during that ride, Sonu requested that everyone make it a habit and not just a gimmick to evade police fines. In a video message shared on social media, Sonu said: “Last week, there was a major accident in Nagpur. My wife, her sister and nephew were inside the car that got into the accident, and the whole world later saw the condition of the car. If someone saved them, it was the seat belt. Those sitting in the back seat often don’t wear it. That day, Sunita (Sonali’s sister) was sitting in the back seat, and my wife Sonali told her to wear the seat belt immediately.

May 2024 Solar Storm Triggers Unusual Radiation Belts, Raising Space Safety Concerns

May 2024 Solar Storm Triggers Unusual Radiation Belts, Raising Space Safety Concerns

A significant solar storm that occurred in May 2024 led to the formation of two temporary radiation belts around Earth, as confirmed by satellite data. The discovery was made when a dormant satellite resumed operations after months of inactivity. The storm, which was among the most intense geomagnetic disturbances since 1989, resulted in widespread auroral displays and introduced high-energy particles into the Earth’s magnetosphere. While such temporary belts have been documented before, scientists have found that one of the newly formed belts exhibited unique properties, with a composition different from previous observations. One of the belts has already dissipated, but the other remains intact, posing potential challenges for future space missions. Temporary Radiation Belts Detected Following Intense Solar Activity According to research published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, the Colorado Inner Radiation Belt Experiment (CIRBE) satellite identified the new radiation belts upon reactivation in June 2024. The spacecraft had gone silent due to a technical issue in April, missing the peak of the storm. Upon its return, data analysis revealed the existence …
