Kannur ADM Naveen BabuKannur ADM Naveen BabuKannur ADM Naveen Babu12 THIRUVANANTHAPURAM/ KOZHIKODE: Congress-led UDF govt in Kerala is planning to hand over the case related to the alleged abetment of Kannur ADM Naveen Babu’s suicide to the CBI. CPM on Sunday criticised the move as “politically motivated”.Babu’s family had recently met chief minister V D Satheesan and sought an urgent CBI investigation into the politically sensitive suicide abetment case.During the meeting, they reportedly expressed strong dissatisfaction with the ongoing police investigation.The Kerala govt is yet to issue a formal notification granting consent to CBI to investigate the case, which is set to become the first major probe handed over to the Central agency since UDF returned to office.State police have already filed a chargesheet in the case, with former Kannur district panchayat president and CPM functionary P P Divya named as the sole accused.Divya is accused of levelling corruption allegations against the ADM in Kannur, allegedly driving him to die by suicide at his official residence the following morning.CPM’s Kannur district secretary K K Ragesh criticised the state govt’s plan to hand over the probe to CBI.He pointed out that both Kerala high court and Supreme Court had earlier rejected the demand for a CBI investigation. “Chief minister V D Satheesan is not above the courts,” he said.Ragesh said that after the family sought a reinvestigation, the inquiry conducted as per the court’s directive found that certain aspects had not been considered by the vigilance department. The Kerala high court had then directed vigilance officials to examine those aspects as well.”In such a situation, there is no doubt that ordering a CBI probe, which was even rejected by Supreme Court, is a purely political move,” he said.Ragesh alleged that Satheesan had more faith in CBI, which he described as Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s force, than in the state’s own investigative agencies.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos‘It Is Public Anger’: BJP Leaders Slam TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee Over Sonarpur IncidentPoK Youth Crosses LoC To Meet Woman In North Kashmir, Apprehended By ArmyMamata Banerjee To Lead June 2 Kolkata Sit-In Over Alleged Attacks On Abhishek Banerjee, TMC LeadersVP Radhakrishnan Warns Indian Youth May Follow ‘Cockroach’ If Positive News Is Ignored‘INDIA Stands United’: Abhishek Banerjee Thanks Rahul Gandhi For Support After Sonarpur AttackKunal Ghosh Targets TMC Leaders Over Silence On Abhishek Banerjee Attack, Sparks Internal DebateNepal PM Invokes Britain In India Border Row, Says ‘We Have Also Encroached On Indian Areas’Rahul Gandhi Meets CBSE Student Vedant, Mocks ‘Anti-National’ And ‘Deep State Agent’ AllegationsKalyan Banerjee Alleges Assault Near Chanditala Police Station, TMC-BJP Face Off Intensifies In WBLeaked Audio Allegedly Shows Mamata Berating Hospital CEO After Attack On Abhishek Banerjee123PhotostoriesMeet 5 of the world’s most colourful dog breedsCotton vs mulmul: Key differences and which one to choose this summerThese 5 simple exercises can help women build muscle and boost fitness without a gymJune is a star-studded month: 5 celebrities whose birthdays fall this monthDivyanka Tripathi shares emotional moments from twin boys’ birth; Delivery room glimpses to Harshdeep Kaur singing “Chanda Hai Tu” for the newborns’Stranger Things’ to ‘Game of Thrones’: Series that gained popularity owing to their conspiracy theoriesWhy does postpartum hair fall happen?Causes, treatment, and effective ways to manage it7 powerful reverse psychology tricks that usually work6 types of litchi available in India and how to pick the sweetest one at the market22-year-old influencer dies after dealing with depression and anxiety: 7 things women should do before reaching a breaking point123Hot PicksRCB vs GT IPL Final LiveVinesh PhogatMonsoon ForecastHenry Nowak murderFrancisco CerundoloDonald TrumpGold price predictionTop TrendingDK ShivakumarSpursUP CNET Admit CardVinesh PhogatNorway ChessSupreme CourtMumbai Air India ColonyBSEB Bihar Sakashmta Pariksha Admit CardNTANEET Paper Leak

File pics NEW DELHI: As govts and technology companies across the world race to dominate the AI revolution, a parallel global debate is steadily gaining ground – who will ensure that AI remains accountable to human values rather than being driven solely by profit, speed and geopolitical competition? That broader concern now appears to connect two very different personalities: PM Narendra Modi and Pope Leo XIV.In a sweeping encyclical on the future of AI, Pope Leo XIV warned against reducing human beings to “data and performance” and cautioned that technology should not become an instrument of domination, exclusion or dehumanisation.Months before, Modi, speaking at AI Summit in Delhi, had argued technology must “serve humanity, not replace it” and called for AI systems that are human-centric, ethical, trusted and inclusive. He has since reiterated his pitch for human-centric AI and for not allowing human agency to be overwhelmed by dizzying breakthroughs.Both, despite speaking from very different institutional and ideological spaces, have increasingly framed AI as a question not just of innovation, but of human dignity, accountability and public welfare.Modi had argued the key challenge before policymakers was to ensure AI remained “human-centric rather than machine-centric”. He also called for international frameworks built around safety and safeguards against misuse.The Vatican document raises similar concerns about concentration of tech power, algorithmic bias and unequal access to AI. It warns that if tech and computing resources remain concentrated in the hands of a few corporations or countries, existing inequalities could deepen further.The overlap reflects how global AI conversation is shifting beyond questions of technological capability and market dominance towards ethics, accountability, inequality and public welfare.The convergence is notable because it reflects an emerging international consensus that AI governance cannot remain limited to technology companies or strategic rivalries among major powers alone.As AI systems become more deeply embedded in everyday life, the debate is no longer only about how fast the technology develops, but also about who shapes its rules, priorities and ethical boundaries.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos‘It Is Public Anger’: BJP Leaders Slam TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee Over Sonarpur IncidentPoK Youth Crosses LoC To Meet Woman In North Kashmir, Apprehended By ArmyMamata Banerjee To Lead June 2 Kolkata Sit-In Over Alleged Attacks On Abhishek Banerjee, TMC LeadersVP Radhakrishnan Warns Indian Youth May Follow ‘Cockroach’ If Positive News Is Ignored‘INDIA Stands United’: Abhishek Banerjee Thanks Rahul Gandhi For Support After Sonarpur AttackKunal Ghosh Targets TMC Leaders Over Silence On Abhishek Banerjee Attack, Sparks Internal DebateNepal PM Invokes Britain In India Border Row, Says ‘We Have Also Encroached On Indian Areas’Rahul Gandhi Meets CBSE Student Vedant, Mocks ‘Anti-National’ And ‘Deep State Agent’ AllegationsKalyan Banerjee Alleges Assault Near Chanditala Police Station, TMC-BJP Face Off Intensifies In WBLeaked Audio Allegedly Shows Mamata Berating Hospital CEO After Attack On Abhishek Banerjee123PhotostoriesMeet 5 of the world’s most colourful dog breedsCotton vs mulmul: Key differences and which one to choose this summerThese 5 simple exercises can help women build muscle and boost fitness without a gymJune is a star-studded month: 5 celebrities whose birthdays fall this monthDivyanka Tripathi shares emotional moments from twin boys’ birth; Delivery room glimpses to Harshdeep Kaur singing “Chanda Hai Tu” for the newborns’Stranger Things’ to ‘Game of Thrones’: Series that gained popularity owing to their conspiracy theoriesWhy does postpartum hair fall happen?Causes, treatment, and effective ways to manage it7 powerful reverse psychology tricks that usually work6 types of litchi available in India and how to pick the sweetest one at the market22-year-old influencer dies after dealing with depression and anxiety: 7 things women should do before reaching a breaking point123Hot PicksRCB vs GT IPL Final LiveVinesh PhogatMonsoon ForecastHenry Nowak murderFrancisco CerundoloDonald TrumpGold price predictionTop TrendingDK ShivakumarSpursUP CNET Admit CardVinesh PhogatNorway ChessSupreme CourtMumbai Air India ColonyBSEB Bihar Sakashmta Pariksha Admit CardNTANEET Paper Leak

NEW DELHI: Indians remained the third largest applicants for Schengen visas globally in CY 2025, with 11.5 lakh did so with a rejection rate of 15.8%. Chinese were the largest applicants at 18 lakh with a rejection rate of 4.1%, followed by nationals of Turkey (12.5 lakh) with a rejection rate of 14.6%, according to data released by the European Commission (EC). “The top five applicant countries remained largely unchanged,” the EC says, with applicants from Russia (6.8 lakh) and Morocco (6.2 lakh) being at the court and fifth spots.Despite soaring international airfares and the rupee’s steep depreciation since last year, which have together made foreign travel more expensive, 2025 saw 4% more Indians applying for Schengen visas than in 2024. The rejection rate also climbed from 15% to 15.8% for Indian applicants in this period.“After the budget-friendly and closer to home Middle East and Southeast Asia, Europe has been top of the list for Indian globetrotters with its varied attractions, including Switzerland, Greece, Amsterdam, France and others. We are now seeing a rising trend of sports tourism with a significant number of Indians going to watch matches there,” said Rajesh Magow, co-founder and group CEO at MakeMyTrip.Among EU and Schengen-associated consulates, Switzerland saw the maximum applications in India at almost 2.3 lakh and a not too high country-specific rejection rate of 13.6%. This was followed by France at over 2 lakh, Germany at 1.5 lakh, the Netherlands at just under lakh, and Sain at about 91,000. The big other big magnets for visa applicants included the embassies of Italy, Austria, Greece, Belgium and Sweden.“Switzerland and France (the top two embassies in terms of getting Schengen visa applications in India) have really smoothened visa application here in terms of both getting dates and then the turnaround time in terms of getting the stamped passport back. While the overall turnaround time is 15 working days for Schengen states, Switzerland and France return in 7-10 days. Italy has a major issue in date availability,” said a leading travel agent who did not wish to be named. At 46.5%, the highest rejection rate for Indians was in SloveniaOverall, 3.3 crore Indians had travelled abroad in CY 2025 — 6% more than 2024 and 21.5% more than pre-Covid 2019. Their top five destinations, according to government data, were: UAE (86 lakh), Saudi Arabia (34 lakh), Thailand (22 lakh), USA (20 lakh) and Singapore (15 lakh).According to the European Commission, the EU and Schengen-associated consulates globally received nearly 1.2 crore applications for short-stay visas in 2025 and over a crore visas were granted.

NEW DELHI: Indians remained the third largest applicants for Schengen visas globally in CY 2025, with 11.5 lakh did so with a rejection rate of 15.8%. Chinese were the largest applicants at 18 lakh with a rejection rate of 4.1%, followed by nationals of Turkey (12.5 lakh) with a rejection rate of 14.6%, according to data released by the European Commission (EC). “The top five applicant countries remained largely unchanged,” the EC says, with applicants from Russia (6.8 lakh) and Morocco (6.2 lakh) being at the court and fifth spots.Despite soaring international airfares and the rupee’s steep depreciation since last year, which have together made foreign travel more expensive, 2025 saw 4% more Indians applying for Schengen visas than in 2024. The rejection rate also climbed from 15% to 15.8% for Indian applicants in this period.“After the budget-friendly and closer to home Middle East and Southeast Asia, Europe has been top of the list for Indian globetrotters with its varied attractions, including Switzerland, Greece, Amsterdam, France and others. We are now seeing a rising trend of sports tourism with a significant number of Indians going to watch matches there,” said Rajesh Magow, co-founder and group CEO at MakeMyTrip.Among EU and Schengen-associated consulates, Switzerland saw the maximum applications in India at almost 2.3 lakh and a not too high country-specific rejection rate of 13.6%. This was followed by France at over 2 lakh, Germany at 1.5 lakh, the Netherlands at just under lakh, and Sain at about 91,000. The big other big magnets for visa applicants included the embassies of Italy, Austria, Greece, Belgium and Sweden.“Switzerland and France (the top two embassies in terms of getting Schengen visa applications in India) have really smoothened visa application here in terms of both getting dates and then the turnaround time in terms of getting the stamped passport back. While the overall turnaround time is 15 working days for Schengen states, Switzerland and France return in 7-10 days. Italy has a major issue in date availability,” said a leading travel agent who did not wish to be named. At 46.5%, the highest rejection rate for Indians was in SloveniaOverall, 3.3 crore Indians had travelled abroad in CY 2025 — 6% more than 2024 and 21.5% more than pre-Covid 2019. Their top five destinations, according to government data, were: UAE (86 lakh), Saudi Arabia (34 lakh), Thailand (22 lakh), USA (20 lakh) and Singapore (15 lakh).According to the European Commission, the EU and Schengen-associated consulates globally received nearly 1.2 crore applications for short-stay visas in 2025 and over a crore visas were granted. While more than CY 2024, both the number of applications and visas granted were below the pre-Covid levels.“Over 1 crore visas were issued in 2025 —a 3% increase from 2024 (97 lakh), but still short of the 1.5 crore granted in 2019.
