			<title>PM Modi advised states to start registering e-Zero FIRs in cyber crime cases NEW DELHI: PM Narendra Modi on Wednesday advised states to start registering e-Zero FIRs in cyber crime cases so that victims who already have lost their money are spared the harassment of running from one department or agency to another, including the police station, where the crime was committed. Taking note that only nine states have this system in place, Modi directed PMO officials to take this up with each chief secretary and DGP of states for faster roll out of e-Zero FIRs across the country.Reviewing grievances related to cyber crime and digital arrest at PRAGATI meeting where chief secretaries from all states were present, PM said he will review the progress of e-Zero FIRs. These FIRs help investigators immediately start the probe against criminals who are very agile and whose trail can soon vanish.The e-Zero FIR is a digital initiative by Indian Cybercrime Coordination Centre (I4C) that automatically converts verified, high-value cyber financial fraud complaints into Zero FIRs. It allows victims to bypass jurisdictional barriers and fast-track the blocking of fraudulent transactions and investigations.In an official release, PMO said Modi expressed concern over rising misuse of digital platforms to defraud citizens and stressed that such matters “require coordinated, sensitive and time-bound handling by all agencies concerned”. He also emphasised the need for clear ownership, faster response, better coordination among law enforcement agencies, banks and digital platforms, and stronger public awareness campaigns.“Prime Minister observed that in cases involving cyber fraud, timely action is crucial to prevent financial loss and restore public confidence,” the official statement said.While reviewing TB Mukt Bharat Abhiyan, PM suggested assigning one block each to a Class-1 officer and create a team of NCC cadets and MY Bharat volunteers, for awareness, patient follow-up and community mobilisation. He asked chief secretaries from four states &#038; one UT&#8211; West Bengal, Maharashtra, Kerala, Gujarat and Ladakh &#8212; to spell out the plan to achieve the goal.Reviewing infrastructure projects, Modi stressed on the use of PM GatiShakti National Master Plan for efficient planning and timely implementation while underlining the need for regular and timely updation of project details, utilities, infrastructure layers, clearances and other field-level information on the portal. He said the platform must reflect the latest ground situation so that bottlenecks can be identified in advance, inter-agency coordination can be improved and decisions can be taken on the basis of reliable, real-time data.Get the latest India news and live updates.

			<title>A key breakthrough came when investigators reviewed CCTV footage from Lohagad Fort and allegedly spotted a hooded man trailing Ketan and Siya on the day of the incident. NEW DELHI: What began as an engagement that was meant to culminate in a lavish wedding has now turned into a murder investigation that has shocked Pune. Police allege that businessman Ketan Agrawal was killed by his fiancée, Siya Goyal, and her alleged lover, Chetan Chaudhary, after multiple failed attempts.Investigators claim the alleged conspiracy unfolded over nearly eight months, beginning after Siya and Chetan first met at a Diwali party in 2025.

The case initially appeared to be a trekking accident after Ketan fell from Lohagad Fort on June 18, but CCTV footage, call records and witness statements later led police to suspect a premeditated conspiracy.A key breakthrough came when investigators reviewed CCTV footage from Lohagad Fort and allegedly spotted a hooded man trailing Ketan and Siya on the day of the incident.

			<title>Speaker Om Birla has already heard representations from both the parent parties and the breakaway groups. NEW DELHI: Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla is expected to decide on the fate of rebel MPs from the Trinamool Congress (TMC) and Shiv Sena (UBT) before the commencement of Parliament&#8217;s Monsoon Session next month, sources familiar with the matter told news agency PTI.The Speaker has already heard representations from both the parent parties and the breakaway groups. In the TMC case, Birla met a delegation led by the party&#8217;s Lok Sabha leader Abhishek Banerjee as well as members of the rebel camp. A similar exercise was conducted in relation to the Shiv Sena (UBT) split.According to sources, legal and constitutional experts attached to Parliament are currently examining the matter and are expected to provide their recommendations before a final decision is taken. Previous rulings by presiding officers in comparable situations are also being studied to ensure any decision is legally and constitutionally sound.The Lok Sabha Secretariat is meanwhile understood to be working on possible seating arrangements ahead of the Monsoon Session, which is usually convened in the third week of July.Apart from the rebel factions of the TMC and Shiv Sena (UBT), the DMK has also sought a separate seating arrangement following the collapse of its long-standing alliance with the Congress. The Congress recently joined hands with Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay&#8217;s party, TVK.The biggest challenge before the Speaker relates to the Trinamool Congress. Of the 29 MPs elected on TMC tickets in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, 20 have broken away and aligned themselves with the Nationalist Citizens Party of India (NCPI), a registered but unrecognised political party based in Howrah. The group has sought separate seating in the Lok Sabha and has also expressed support for the Narendra Modi government and a desire to join the NDA.One TMC MP has since passed away, leaving the party with 28 members in the House.In Maharashtra, six of the nine MPs elected on Shiv Sena (UBT) tickets have shifted allegiance to the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena.Both parties have urged Birla to invoke the anti-defection law and disqualify the rebel MPs. They have argued that protection under the Tenth Schedule applies only when two-thirds of the entire party merges with another political party, and not when legislators individually or collectively switch sides.Abhishek Banerjee personally pressed the TMC&#8217;s case before the Speaker and submitted 20 separate petitions seeking the disqualification of the rebel MPs.He also contended that the rebels&#8217; claim of having merged with the NCPI was legally untenable, arguing that any valid merger must involve two-thirds of the entire political party rather than only elected representatives.Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders Anil Desai and Arvind Sawant also met Birla and sought details of any submissions made by the rebel MPs.&#8221;We asked him if he had received any appeal from the rebels&#8230;&#8221; Sawant said, adding that the Speaker informed them that nothing had been received in writing.Desai said they emphasised before Birla that the Tenth Schedule leaves little room for ambiguity.&#8221;Any group of a legislature party cannot merge into some other party on its own, even if they have a two-thirds majority&#8221;.The latest dispute comes four years after the dramatic split in the undivided Shiv Sena engineered by Eknath Shinde, which led to the fall of the Maha Vikas Aghadi government in Maharashtra. In February 2023, the Election Commission recognised the Shinde faction as the real Shiv Sena. Get the latest India news and live updates.

			<title>India&#8217;s junior space minister Jitendra Singh urged BRICS nations to forge a &#8216;Brics Space Economy,&#8217; BENGALURU: Calling space the next frontier of global economic growth, junior space minister Jitendra Singh Wednesday urged Brics nations to work together to build a “Brics Space Economy”, arguing that no single country can shape the future of the sector alone.Addressing the valedictory session of the Brics Heads of Space Agencies (Hosa) meeting in Bengaluru, Singh said the bloc possesses the scientific expertise, technological capabilities and industrial strength needed to emerge as a major force in the rapidly expanding global space economy.“The future of the space economy will not be shaped by nations working in isolation. It will be shaped by partnerships, shared innovation and collective ambition,” Singh said. “Brics countries have the potential to become one of the strongest pillars of this emerging global space ecosystem.”Isro chairman V Narayanan said: “A total of 26 delegates from 10 countries participated. There were extensive discussions on the utilisation of the Brics Remote Sensing Satellite Constellation (RSSC) for the socio-economic benefit of member countries, including applications in disaster management, climate change monitoring, and other areas.” “We also discussed debris-free mission management systems to ensure the long-term sustainability of space activities. It was a very productive meeting. Along with the five Brics nations, five more countries were part of this initiative,” he added.The two-day meeting, hosted by Isro under India’s Brics Chairship 2026, brought together heads of space agencies and senior officials from Brazil, China, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, Russia, South Africa and the United Arab Emirates.At a time when countries are increasingly looking to space-based technologies for economic and developmental gains, Singh positioned cooperation among Brics members as a pathway to innovation, investment and sustainable growth. He said the grouping, which accounts for a significant share of the world’s population and economic output, is uniquely placed to leverage space technology for addressing common challenges.“Challenges such as climate change, natural disasters, food and water security, environmental degradation and sustainable urbanisation increasingly require collective solutions supported by advanced space technologies,” he said.The discussions focused on strengthening existing cooperation mechanisms and identifying new areas of collaboration. Delegates reviewed progress on the RSSC, which enables satellite data sharing among member nations, and discussed expanding participation of newer Brics members in ongoing initiatives.A major theme of the meeting was the need for stronger institutional frameworks. Singh expressed confidence that deliberations on the proposed Brics Space Council would provide continuity and momentum to future cooperation efforts.He also called for the partnership to evolve beyond dialogue and information-sharing. “Brics nations must move beyond consultation and work towards co-development, co-innovation and co-creation. By bringing together our scientists, engineers, industries, startups and young innovators, we can develop solutions for global challenges, create new economic opportunities and build a stronger framework for scientific advancement and shared prosperity,” Singh said. Sustainability also featured prominently in the discussions. With growing concerns over orbital congestion and space debris, participating nations examined measures to promote debris-free missions and responsible space operations. Singh stressed that the long-term future of space activities depends on preserving outer space as a safe and sustainable domain, calling for greater transparency, cooperation and capacity-building among nations.The meeting concluded with India reaffirming its commitment to deeper engagement with Brics partners.Get the latest India news and live updates.
