India won`t make any distinction between terrorists and govt harbouring them: CM

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made it clear that India will not make any distinction between terrorists and a government harbouring them.

The medical license of an Indian American physician has been permanently revoked for illegally recruiting and harbouring two Indian women to be household servants for low pay. Dr Harsha Sahni, who maintained a rheumatology practice in Colonia, New Jersey, pleaded guilty to federal charges of conspiracy to conceal and harbour aliens and filing a false tax return last February. She is scheduled to begin serving a 27-month prison sentence handed down by a federal court judge in October 2024, Attorney General Matthew J Platkin and the Division of Consumer Affairs announced on Wednesday. Sahni had been temporarily suspended from the practice of medicine since September 2023, as the State pursued an administrative action to revoke her license in the wake of her criminal plea. “The revocation announced today brings closure to a disturbing case in which a physician sworn to uphold the highest standards of care and compassion exploited and abused vulnerable victims for her own financial gain,” Attorney General Platkin said. “There is no place in the medical profession for this kind of criminal …

Now 12, Saumya Escarré García-Solera is living a happy life with her adoptive parents in Spain, even harbouring a dream to play hockey. Why not?

It was in 1996 that he first visited India as a player and “it felt like a pilgrimage”. Then in 2005, when he returned with his wife, he “fell in love with the country”. This time, however, here as the Spanish men’s hockey team’s assistant coach for the Hockey Pro League in Odisha, Escarré says the trip feels a lot more personal. “It’s my daughter’s home.” In the Spanish port city of Alicante, Saumya has grown to be “a happy child, funny …
