The Madhya Pradesh forest department considered ‘seizing’ a train responsible for the death of three tiger cubs on the Midghat-Budhni railway tracks. This follows a precedent set by the Assam government, which seized a locomotive after it killed an elephant and calf in 2020. The incident has deeply affected forest officers, emphasizing the need for strict measures against train overspeeding in tiger corridors.

Bihar CM office received a bomb threat e-mail on July 16.

Sources have also indicated that a Bill to amend the Waqf Act is likely to be introduced in Parliament next week.
