Sahu Nyaya Yatra to help farmers; 800 villages, 2,400 km to be covered in Telangana by October 2
Many farmers either lack knowledge of various Acts pertaining to spurious seeds, fertilisers, and pesticides, as well as the newly launched Bhu Bharati Act, or they do not know how to, and whom they should approach for their grievances.
The Legal Empowerment and Assistance for Farmers Society (LEAP), founded by land laws expert Sunil Kumar along with others, kicked off a yatra called 'Sahu Nyaya Yatra' with the objective of enlightening farmers on laws and rules pertaining to land, seeds, and water.

Gas leak sparks panic in city, no casualties reported
Ranchi: Panic gripped the Anantpur locality on Wednesday morning after two domestic piped natural gas (PNG) pipelines, laid by GAIL India, were damaged during drain excavation work in nearby Niwaranpur. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The incident led to a gas leak, prompting residents and shopkeepers to flee. "The pipeline was hit during service lane excavation work. GAIL and residents were alerted," said Sunil Kumar, urban development and housing department secretary. "The smell was strong, and someone shouted that it was gas. I switched off all electrical appliances and rushed my children outside," said Poonam Devi, a resident of Anantpur Road. Shopkeeper Rajesh Prasad added, "People were shouting and running, and many traders downed their shutters." "The leak occurred during drain excavation work, when a mechanical digger hit two gas lines lying about 1 metre deep. There was a warning sign installed, but in the rush of construction, it was likely ignored," said Mahesh Toppo, a resident. GAIL engineers rushed to the site, and the gas supply in the area was suspended. Firefighters and technical teams were deployed. The gas, under less than 2.6 millibar pressure, dispersed in the open air. "This was a low-pressure pipeline meant for households. Due to its open location and minimal pressure, the leaked gas dissolved into the atmosphere. The repair has begun, and supply will resume only after full safety checks," said Prashant Singh, deputy general manager, GAIL India. Ranchi currently has over 10,000 households connected to PNG, with plans to add 37000 more within a year. A 650 km network of pipeline spans areas like Tupudana, Doranda, Morabadi, Kanke, Singhmore, Jhiri, Nayasarai, and Daladali. Gas is transmitted from JHBDPL at 65- 90 kg/cm², enters Ranchi at 19- 21 kg/cm², via a City Gate Station (CGS) on the city's outskirts. and reaches homes at a safe 20 millibars via DRS
