Anjum keeps singing

Will this injustice go on for ever?

Arundhati Roy wrote an optimistic letter to her incarcerated friend GN Saibaba more than two years ago with an affirmative, ‘This injustice will not go on forever.' That optimism seem to be gradually waning. The Jesuit priest and tribal rights activist Stan Swamy's death on July 5, 2021, ahead of his bail hearing in Bombay High Court, has taught us not to be optimistic.

Now, is Anjum (a character in Roy's The Ministry of Utmost Happiness) still singing locked up in her room? Arundhati Roy's letter to her imprisoned friend was written three years (it was in 2017) after Saibaba wrote to Anjum from Anda cell of Nagpur Central Jail. In that he says, "I hope you still remember me six months after my disappearance from Delhi. I know it is easy to forget people who go to prisons or the otherworldly worlds. Life outside on the earth has to go on."

Roy's profound reply insisted, "Every time she sings Tum Bin Kaun Khabariya Mori Lait (Who Other Than You Asks Me How I Am?) it breaks my heart a little. And it makes me think of you. When she sings it, I’m sure that she too is thinking of you. So even if she doesn’t write back, you should know that she often sings to you. If you concentrate hard enough perhaps you will be able to hear her."

At this juncture, there is nothing much to say when overwhelming sadness envelops us. It would only be prudent to sign off quoting Roy again, "What a small-hearted, cruel, intellectually fragile (or should we just go ahead and say fearsomely stupid) regime we are ruled by. How pathetic it is for the government of a country as vast as ours to be so scared of its own writers and scholars."

Gangster who committed fraud through AnyDesk app arrested, you will be shocked to know the method

In today's digital age, mobile apps have become an integral part of our lives, whether it's for online shopping or managing our bank accounts. However, amidst the convenience and efficiency that these apps offer, there lurks a shadowy threat. If someone sends you a link to download the AnyDesk mobile app, exercise extreme caution. This seemingly innocent app has become a tool for cybercriminals to siphon money from unsuspecting victims. In this article, we unveil a shocking case from Varanasi, where a man fell victim to these vicious cybercriminals, resulting in a staggering loss of Rs 520,516 from his bank account.

Vinod Sharma, a resident of Village Kushaha in Varanasi, narrates a harrowing tale of how cyberthugs, posing as customer care representatives, infiltrated his mobile device and subsequently emptied his bank account. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the increasing sophistication and audacity of cybercriminals in today's digital landscape.

Following the unfortunate incident, Vinod Sharma wasted no time and promptly reported the crime to the Cyber Crime Unit in Lucknow. Armed with the evidence provided by Sharma, the authorities swiftly swung into action, leading to the arrest of the criminal responsible. The arrest took place right in front of Varanasi City Gate, a testament to the relentless pursuit of justice in the face of such cybercrimes. The police discovered several key pieces of evidence during the arrest, including three Android mobile phones, one keypad mobile phone, 12 checkbooks, and four ATM cards, all of which were linked to the criminal's illicit activities.

The modus operandi of these cybercriminals is both sophisticated and alarming. During the interrogation, the arrested criminal revealed a chilling tale of his criminal journey. He disclosed, "I graduated in 2001 and took my first steps into the world of crime. I was incarcerated for a serious assault in the same year. Tragically, in 2016, I committed the heinous act of murdering my nephew. My criminal record continued to grow, with convictions in 2020 for theft and fraud in Ayodhya district, and in 2021, I found myself in Deoghar jail due to a fraud case. It was during my time in Deoghar jail that I encountered two seasoned cybercriminals named Afzal Ansari and Sagir Ansari. Upon my release, I became deeply entangled in the world of cybercrime, learning the ropes from these individuals."

The criminal's journey did not end there. He expanded his criminal network by establishing connections with cybercriminals from various regions, including Deoghar, Dhanbad, West Bengal, and Khunti in Jharkhand. Through these connections, he gained insights into the intricacies of cybercrime and the art of conducting cyber fraud.

The primary tactic employed by these criminals was to initiate internet banking in unsuspecting victims' accounts, using their personal information. Once they gained access, they executed unauthorized transactions on the victims' behalf. To maintain their illicit operation, the criminals promised the account holders a fraction of the stolen funds, typically ranging from Rs 5,000 to Rs 10,000. In a sinister twist, the criminals would call the victim, posing as genuine bank representatives, and cunningly trick them into revealing sensitive information, such as One-Time Passwords (OTPs). Armed with this information, they gained access to the victim's account and surreptitiously deposited the stolen money into an account under their control. The illicit proceeds were subsequently divided among the criminal network.

To shield yourself from falling victim to such a nefarious scheme, it is imperative to adopt a few crucial precautions:

Exercise Caution: Resist the allure of enticing offers and links sent by unknown sources. Cybercriminals often use tempting bait to lure unsuspecting individuals into their traps.

Protect OTPs: Under no circumstances should you share your One-Time Passwords (OTPs) or other sensitive information with unknown individuals, even if they claim to be from your bank or a trusted organization.

Strengthen Passwords: Ensure your passwords are strong, incorporating a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Avoid using easily guessable passwords, such as birthdays or common words.

Verify Demands for Money: If someone demands money from you, always exercise skepticism and verify the legitimacy of the request. Reach out to the organization or individual through their official channels to confirm the validity of the request before taking any action.

In conclusion, the proliferation of mobile apps has brought undeniable convenience to our lives, but it has also opened the door to new threats. The AnyDesk mobile app, once a tool for legitimate purposes, has now been tainted by cybercriminals who exploit its functionality to drain innocent individuals' bank accounts. The case of Vinod Sharma from Varanasi serves as a stark reminder of the need to remain vigilant in the digital age. By adopting the recommended precautions and staying informed about evolving cyber threats, we can protect ourselves and our assets from falling prey to these ruthless criminals. Remember, in the world of cybersecurity, vigilance is your most potent defense.

Vande Bharat Express | Vande Bharat: Those who pelt stones will be jailed for 5 years. Gondia Today (New India)

Gondia, Railway is preparing to take strict action against stone pelting on Vande Bharat Express. Railways has now made a strategy for this. Regarding this, special responsibility has now been assigned to the Railway Protection Force (RPF). Those who pelt stones will not be spared now. This step has been taken in view of the safety of passengers in Vande Bharat Express. Now a case will be registered against the stone pelters under section 153 of the Railway Act 1989. There can be a jail term of five years.

Stone pelting at some places on the Vande Bharat Express running between Nagpur and Bilaspur has surprised the railway administration.

A case will be registered against such people under Section 153 of the Railway Act and the CCTV recording installed on the coach of Vande Bharat Express will be made a solid proof.

It is noteworthy that on 11 December 2022, Prime Minister Modi himself flagged off the Vande Bharat Express from Nagpur station. After this, the administration has taken seriously the 6 incidents of stone pelting at different places on the train in one and a half months. Railways claim that adequate arrangements have been made for passenger safety in the train. This is the reason why not a single passenger has been harmed in these incidents so far. There should be no incident of stone pelting in future, so the Railways will now take strict action.

Ram Kadam from BJP criticizes Pawar over Bollywood comment

BJP leader Ram Kadam criticized Sharad Pawar's statement about Dadasaheb Phalke setting up Bollywood. In a tweet, BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla said, "Terrorists have no religion but art and cinema have?"

The BJP came all together and condemned the statement made by Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar. Pawar had said that it is the Muslim Minority that has contributed immensely to Bollywood. The former asked the NCP patriarch why he was trying to divide art and cinema just for the sake of the vote bank. "What about Dadasaheb Phalke, Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Smita Patil, Madhuri Dixit, etc,” said BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla in a Tweet replying to the statement made by Pawar a day before while addressing the Muslim community event in Nagpur.

"So, terrorists have no religion but art and cinema have a religion Pawar Saheb?" the BJP spokesperson asked.

"But what can we expect from a party whose minister Nawab Malik is in jail for links with D company! But what can we expect from a party whose minister Nawab Malik is in jail for links with D company!" Shehzad wrote.

Against Sharad Pawar’s statement, a BJP spokesperson said what about the contribution of Amitabh Bachchan, Rajesh Khanna, Kishor Kumar, and Lata Mangeshkar to Hindi cinema. "Dada Saheb Phalke set up the industry. Do they want to divide art or talent in the name of religion for the sake of vote bank politics? What is the conspiracy behind this thought?" he tweeted.
