Representative image NEW DELHI: Government has made it clear that social media platforms are expected to strictly follow prescribed standard operating procedures while dealing with child sexual abuse material (CSAM), including timely reporting, coordination with law enforcement agencies and working through designated bodies such as the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C).Officials told TOI that compliance with these procedures is a key responsibility for intermediaries operating in India and any lapses would invite action under the applicable legal framework.The comments come as the ministry of electronics and information technology examines Meta’s response to a notice over advertisements on Instagram allegedly promoting or facilitating access to CSAM.The Centre had issued the notice after reports highlighted such advertisements on Instagram, seeking an explanation on Meta’s ad review systems, content moderation processes and safeguards.IT secretary S Krishnan said Meta’s reply had been received and the next course of action would be decided after it is assessed.Officials, however, said the focus remains on whether the platform complied with its obligations for detecting, reporting and acting against such material.Get the latest India news and live updates.

Ram Mandir Trust sets criteria for CEO post LUCKNOW: Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra invited applications Monday for its first chief executive officer (CEO), aiming to professionalise the running of Ayodhya’s Ram temple a month after cash-counting agents were allegedly found to have stolen donations to the shrine.The CEO aspirant must be a graduate between 50 and 70 and, according to the notification, also “an actively practising Hindu”. Being a Ram devotee from the Vaishnava tradition will be treated as an additional attribute. The appointment will be for a three-year term and the last date for applications is July 18, a copy of the notification posted on the trust’s X handle said.The CEO will report to the trust’s general secretary and must have at least 20 years of managerial experience in a large public organisation, institution, govt department or company, with expertise across administration, finance, human resources, public relations, IT, security and legal affairs. “Preference will be given to candidates who have served as chief administrative officer or have experience in managing a temple or Hindu religious institution. Retired officers meeting the eligibility criteria may also apply,” the notification states. Emoluments will be finalised after “mutual” discussions.A 15-point annexure to the notification spells out the CEO’s brief. The appointee will be responsible for framing standard operating procedures, systems, processes and protocols for the temple’s day-to-day functions. All conditions in the original trust deed must be followed, and approvals sought from the general secretary and permanent trust members before any decision is implemented. The CEO will work independently under the trust’s supervision.The trust decided at its July 6 meeting to bring in a CEO after six cash-counting agents were among the eight arrested on suspicion of stealing cash, ornaments and other valuables from the ‘hundis’ (donation boxes) while counting and making inventories.The resignations of ex-general secretary Champat Rai and senior trust member Anil Mishra, who held administrative and financial powers, were accepted at the same meeting and member and retired IFS officer Krishna Mohan was appointed interim general secretary. A three-member search panel comprising a retired HC judge, retired LG and former nuclear scientist, was also constituted the same day.

File photo: Tankers and other vessels in the Strait of Hormuz (Picture credit: Reuters) NEW DELHI: An Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured after two UAE-flagged tankers were targeted by Iranian cruise missiles in the Strait of Hormuz, the UAE ministry of defence said early Tuesday.The attack on the tankers Mombasa and Bahia took place in the southern passage of the Strait of Hormuz in Omani territorial waters, according to the UAE defence ministry.One crew member aboard the Mombasa, an Indian national, died in the strike, while eight others were injured, including four who suffered serious injuries.The injured included six Indian nationals and two Ukrainian nationals, the ministry said.”The national tankers (Mombasa) and (Bahia) were targeted by two Iranian cruise missiles in the southern passage of the Strait of Hormuz in Omani territorial waters,” the UAE ministry of defence said in a statement.The attack also triggered fires onboard both vessels, causing material damage. The fires were later brought under control, the ministry said.The UAE condemned the incident as a “serious violation and a clear breach of international law”, warning that it reserved the right to respond and take necessary measures to protect its territory, people and national interests.”The state reserves its full right to respond to this escalation and to take all necessary measures to protect its territories, people, and residents,” the ministry said.The UAE said it remained on high alert and urged the public to rely only on official sources for information.Iran reports targeting vessels as Hormuz tensions riseThe incident comes amid escalating military tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most strategically important maritime chokepoints.Earlier, Iran’s semi-official Tasnim news agency reported that several “violating” vessels had been targeted in the Strait of Hormuz by Iranian forces. Iranian state broadcaster IRIB also reported that the navy had fired cruise missiles at a “hostile vessel of the American enemy”, citing an unnamed military source.The latest escalation follows a series of US strikes on Iran and growing confrontation over control of the Strait of Hormuz.The US Central Command (Centcom) launched a new round of strikes against Iran on Monday, saying the operations were aimed at reducing Tehran’s ability to target civilian vessels and commercial shipping in the waterway.”These strikes will continue imposing a heavy cost on Iranian forces and degrade their ability to attack innocent civilians and commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz,” Centcom said.US President Donald Trump had earlier announced that Washington was reinstating a blockade on Iranian shipping and said the US would charge a 20 per cent fee on eligible cargo passing through the strait to compensate for security costs.”We’re protecting a very rich portion of the world. We’re spending money. And so, what we’ve done is, we are going to be reimbursed for protection,” Trump said.The US military said the blockade would resume from Tuesday and apply to vessels travelling to and from Iranian ports, while allowing traffic not violating the restrictions to continue.Get the latest India news and live updates.

File photo: Tankers and other vessels in the Strait of Hormuz (Picture credit: Reuters) NEW DELHI: An Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured after two UAE-flagged tankers were targeted by Iranian cruise missiles in the Strait of Hormuz, the UAE ministry of defence said early Tuesday.The attack on the tankers Mombasa and Bahia took place in the southern passage of the Strait of Hormuz in Omani territorial waters, according to the UAE defence ministry.One crew member aboard the Mombasa, an Indian national, died in the strike, while eight others were injured, including four who suffered serious injuries.The injured included six Indian nationals and two Ukrainian nationals, the ministry said.”The national tankers (Mombasa) and (Bahia) were targeted by two Iranian cruise missiles in the southern passage of the Strait of Hormuz in Omani territorial waters,” the UAE ministry of defence said in a statement.The attack also triggered fires onboard both vessels, causing material damage. The fires were later brought under control, the ministry said.The UAE condemned the incident as a “serious violation and a clear breach of international law”, warning that it reserved the right to respond and take necessary measures to protect its territory, people and national interests.”The state reserves its full right to respond to this escalation and to take all necessary measures to protect its territories, people, and residents,” the ministry said.The UAE said it remained on high alert and urged the public to rely only on official sources for information.Iran reports targeting vessels as Hormuz tensions riseThe incident comes amid escalating military tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most strategically important maritime chokepoints.Earlier, Iran’s semi-official Tasnim news agency reported that several “violating” vessels had been targeted in the Strait of Hormuz by Iranian forces. Iranian state broadcaster IRIB also reported that the navy had fired cruise missiles at a “hostile vessel of the American enemy”, citing an unnamed military source.The latest escalation follows a series of US strikes on Iran and growing confrontation over control of the Strait of Hormuz.The US Central Command (Centcom) launched a new round of strikes against Iran on Monday, saying the operations were aimed at reducing Tehran’s ability to target civilian vessels and commercial shipping in the waterway.”These strikes will continue imposing a heavy cost on Iranian forces and degrade their ability to attack innocent civilians and commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz,” Centcom said.US President Donald Trump had earlier announced that Washington was reinstating a blockade on Iranian shipping and said the US would charge a 20 per cent fee on eligible cargo passing through the strait to compensate for security costs.”We’re protecting a very rich portion of the world. We’re spending money. And so, what we’ve done is, we are going to be reimbursed for protection,” Trump said.The US military said the blockade would resume from Tuesday and apply to vessels travelling to and from Iranian ports, while allowing traffic not violating the restrictions to continue.Get the latest India news and live updates.

Japan’s newspaper-printed solar cells could turn almost any surface into a power generator

Vamsikrishna05 mins mins

For decades, solar power has largely meant one thing: rigid silicon panels fixed to rooftops or spread across vast solar farms. Japan is pursuing a very different idea. Instead of heavy glass modules, researchers and manufacturers are developing ultra-thin, flexible solar cells that can be produced using high-speed printing techniques similar to those used for…
