Mahanadi Sand Mining Nexus Under Lens After Murder

Mahanadi Sand Mining Nexus Under Lens After Murder

At first glance, it could pass for a desert. Pale beige sand forms steep slopes as far as the eye can see, the stark landscape broken only by occasional ridges, faint vehicle tracks, and earthmovers piling sand onto waiting tractors. But look closer, and the differences emerge: patches of green shrubbery and, just beyond, the Mahanadi, summer-worn and thinner than in the monsoon. This is a sand quarry in Karhi village in Chhattisgarh’s Sakti district. Last week, the 18-year-old son of a Congress leader was shot dead and another son wounded when armed men forced their way into their house late at night. There have been no arrests yet. The killing has drawn attention to ongoing concerns around illegal sand mining in the area, although police said the motive is still under investigation and no link has been established so far. According to data from the district administration, 46 cases related to illegal sand mining were registered by the mining branch in Karhi over the last two years, with Rs 8 lakh collected in penalties. …

Rahul Gandhi alleges BJP–LDF nexus, targets Kerala CM over minority issues

Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday launched a strong political attack against both the Left Democratic Front (LDF) and the Bharatiya Janata Party, alleging a tacit understanding between the two in Kerala. Addressing an election rally in Alappuzha, Gandhi accused Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan of being aligned with forces that he claimed were responsible for targeting minority communities in different parts of the country, reported news agency PTI. He further alleged that despite political differences on the surface, there existed a deeper connection between the LDF and the BJP that was influencing the political landscape in the state. Claims of ideological shift within the Left Gandhi pointed to the presence of former CPI(M) leader G. Sudhakaran on the stage as a sign of internal changes within the Left. Sudhakaran, now contesting as an Independent candidate with support from the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF), was cited as an example of what Gandhi described as a broader ideological shift within the LDF, reported PTI. According to Gandhi, leaders who had spent decades within Left politics …

Baba Siddique murder: Wife moves Bombay HC, alleges builder-politician nexus, seeks SIT probe

Baba Siddique murder: Wife moves Bombay HC, alleges builder-politician nexus, seeks SIT probe

Baba Siddique. | Photo Credit: ANI Shehzeen Ziauddin Siddique, widow of former Maharashtra Minister Baba Siddique, who was shot dead in Bandra East on October 12, 2024, has moved the Bombay High Court seeking a fresh investigation into the murder. Ms. Siddique, in her petition, has demanded that the probe be handed over to a court-monitored Special Investigation Team (SIT), or alternatively, to an independent officer or police agency from another State.  The current investigation by Mumbai Police is “biased, tainted and incomplete,” and has deliberately avoided probing the role of politically connected builders involved in slum redevelopment projects, the petition alleged. “The entire investigation is a scene to create an impression that a laborious and deep investigation is done… but the nature of the same is like ‘digging a mountain and finding out a rat’,” it stated.  While the police have named Anmol Bishnoi, brother of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, as the alleged mastermind, Ms. Siddique contested this claim. She argued that Bishnoi’s role is being used to deflect attention from the real culprits. …

NZXT’s Flex PC rentals are still ‘misleading’ and ‘predatory,’ claims Gamers Nexus

NZXT’s Flex PC rentals are still ‘misleading’ and ‘predatory,’ claims Gamers Nexus

Gamers Nexus has released a video deconstructing NZXT’s defense of its Flex gaming PC purchase and rental program. In it, host Steve Burke says the company is still misleading customers, despite adjustments made in response to his previous video in which he called the program “a scam.” NZXT said in its response this week that it would clarify details about its Flex program, which Gamers Nexus had criticized for having specs that would change sometimes “day-to-day.” The company has appeared to update specs and performance numbers for its purchase builds. But Gamers Nexus reports it still spotted issues like inconsistent FPS numbers and a FAQ that implied NZXT’s for-sale Player: Three Prime build uses an RTX 4090 graphics card, despite its specs saying otherwise. The FAQ entry Burke mentions seems to be gone now, but as of this writing, there’s still an entry titled “What GPU is right for me?” that lists the RTX 4090 and its benefits. Such inconsistencies are a problem for potential customers, Burke says. The fact that NZXT misrepresented its product, …
