A world shattered, a family wiped out

Ayodhya/Lucknow: For over a year, Prahlad Gupta's niece was living with her maternal uncle in Sihagaon, pursuing her education with dreams of a brighter future. On Sunday morning, she was unaware that tragedy was about to strike. Her uncle's family left for darshan at the Prithvinath temple, a spiritual outing that turned fatal. Around 11 am, the devastating news reached her—not from family, but from her school captain, who informed her of the accident. What she didn't know until later was that her uncle Prahlad's younger brother Ramkaran, along with his entire family—wife Ansuya, son Shubh (7) and daughter Saumya (9)—perished in the crash. Also gone were Prahlad's wife Bina, his daughters Kajal and Rinki and his youngest brother Ramroop's wife and son. The family's grief deepened with the disappearance of Ramroop's 10-year-old daughter Rachna, who is feared drowned. Even as the Gonda district hospital conducted post-mortem examinations of the the 11 dead under the supervision of CMO Dr Rashmi Verma, the mourning village of Moti Ganj waited for the return of their loved ones' bodies. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Global Indices Are on the Move — Time to Trade! IC Markets Learn More Undo Six autopsies were completed within an hour-and-a-half; the remaining were in progress. Once done, all the bodies were to be sent together to the village. Outside the postmortem house, silence and sorrow loomed. Inside Prahlad's home in Moti Ganj, wails echoed through the air, drowning the village in mourning. Neighbours tried to console the family, but many could not hold back their own tears. Among the deceased were also their neighbour Ramlallan Verma's wife Sanju (26) and sister Gudia alias Anju (20), who joined the family on the trip. Prahlad's son Satyam and daughter Pinky survived the crash with injuries, as did neighbour Ramlallan and the driver Sitaraman. Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed deep condolences and announced Rs 2 lakh ex-gratia compensation for the families of the deceased and Rs 50,000 for the injured. "Govt stands with the bereaved families in this hour of grief," he said. "All possible assistance will be provided." As search operations continued with SDRF teams to find little Rachna, what remains is a family devastated—and a niece who will never return to the same home again.

River Sal clean-up continues but no penalty for pollutersMore Infra Improvements On The Cards

Margao: While state govt has deployed floating aerators and automated gates worth crores to resurrect the dying river Sal, not a single polluter has faced penalties despite continuing contamination of the river, revealed legislative assembly records The stark contradiction was evident from the written reply by water resources minister Subhash Shirodkar in the ongoing monsoon session of the state assembly. Shirodkar's reply stated that enforcement was limited to 'requesting' the public health engineering department to stop unauthorised discharges. This lenient stance of govt on pollution enforcement stands in sharp contrast to its aggressive spending, largely on technological measures, to clean up the Sal. Since 2020, the state has already pumped in over Rs 40 crore into the Sal's revival. An automated water storage structure, with floating aerators, costing Rs 24 crore was built near the wholesale fish market in Margao. Bio-beds were installed to enhance parameters such as turbidity, colour, and odour, while electrically operated gates control water flow with precision. However, despite the adoption of technological solutions, the discharge of raw sewage and industrial waste into the river continues unabated. Sources pointed out that the National Green Tribunal 's 2018 order specifically mandated action against polluters, but five years later, Sal's restoration relies entirely on expensive downstream solutions rather than stopping contamination at the source. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 15 Most Beautiful Female Athletes in the World Click Here Undo 'You can install all the aerators you want, but if sewage keeps flowing in, you're just creating an expensive fish tank,' said one observer familiar with the project. The upcoming Phase III of the Sal clean-up project, estimated at Rs 18 crore, promises more infrastructure improvements. This includes erecting chain link fencing alongside the Sal river near the wholesale fish market in Margao and putting in place a sedimentation process at the nullah mouth at various places to treat sewage in the Fatorda constituency.
