Palamuru and Noida University have jointly decided to experiment with making oil from wasted vegetables.

One soldier was killed in action and four others were injured during an encounter with terrorists along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir’s Kupwara district today.

The Army said a “Pakistani person” was also killed in the encounter and confirmed the injuries of two soldiers. 

Sources say it appears to be an attack by Pakistan’s Border Action Team (BAT)- who were involved in multiple attacks before ceasefire understating between India and Pakistan in February 2021.

“This an aggressive action and clearly an escalation along the LOC” said a senior officer. 

This comes a day after ‘Kargil Vijay Diwas’ when Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave a stern warning to Pakistan and said that the Indian Army would defeat every terror challenge. 

In a statement on X, the Army said there was an exchange of fire with unidentified persons but didn’t name Pakistan army or terrorists.

“There has been exchange of fire with unidentified personnel on a forward post in Kamkari, Macchal Sector on the line of control. One Pakistani person has been killed while two of our soldiers have suffered injuries and have been evacuated. Operations are in progress.”

Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi earlier this week visited the LOC in the same area and reviewed preparedness of the forces to deal with infiltration and terrorist attacks.

Amid rising terror incidents, PM Modi last month chaired a review meeting to assess the situation in Jammu and Kashmir.

He spoke to Home Minister Amit Shah and National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and was given a full overview of the security-related situation of the Union Territory and the counter-terrorism operations being undertaken by the armed forces.

He also spoke to Jammu and Kashmir Lt Governor Manoj Sinha and was briefed on the efforts being undertaken by the local administration.

Prime Minister has asked the authorities to deploy the full spectrum of the armed forces’ counter-terror capabilities.

The brutal murder of a 24-year-old woman at a hostel in a posh Bengaluru locality has sent shockwaves across the nation. The accused has been arrested by the police and is believed to be the boyfriend of the victim, Kriti Kumari’s roommate.

The accused, Abhishek, and the roommate frequently argued about his unemployment, and these disputes often grew intense. Kriti would sometimes get involved, and end up making the situation worse. Allegedly, she suggested that her roommate should distance herself from the man.

The relationship, however, soured, and Kriti and her friends started to avoid him. Sometime ago Abhishek came to the PG hostel and created a ruckus following which Kriti Kumari helped her friend shift to a new PG hostel, and both stopped taking his calls.

This enraged him and ultimately led him to kill Kriti.

The CCTV footage of the incident, which has gone viral on social media, shows the attacker walking into the corridor of the paying guest accommodation where Kriti Kumari used to stay. The CCTV footage shows Abhishek walking toward Kriti’s room holding a plastic bag in his hand. Abhishek knocks on the door and enters the room. Soon after, Abhishek is seen dragging her out and Kriti struggles to get out of his clutches.

Abhishek, who was holding a knife in one hand, grabs Kriti’s neck. Even as Kriti struggles to avoid being stabbed, the killer manages to stab her repeatedly. As Kriti loses the strength to defend herself, the killer takes his time and attacks her again.

Even after Kriti collapses, the killer holds her by the hair and stabs her. He then takes a step away from her, and after seeing her still breathing, he tries to slit her throat again before running away.

Kumari is seen sitting with blood on her chest and the floor. Other women in the PG rushed out, and on seeing her, one of them was seen dialling on her cell phone what was likely the police.
