Air India 171 crash: Last DNA match day after family holds symbolic funeral
Friday marked Ashadhi Beej, when Kutchhis celebrate their new year. But the Khimani family was grieving. They were grieving the loss of their loved one, Anil Khimani (32), who was on the London-bound AI 171 that crashed in Ahmedabad on June 12. They were also grieving because his was the only body among the 241 dead that had not yet been identified through a DNA match. Searching for 'closure' and to 'overcome the guilt' of not being able to bid a respectful farewell, the Khimanis held a 'symbolic' funeral at Dahinsara, their village in Bhuj, on Thursday followed by a prayer meeting on Friday. Hours after the prayer was held, however, a senior government official told The Indian Express that they were finally able to find a DNA match and identify Anil's body. 'Multiple rounds of processing for DNA extraction were undertaken, considering that the sample was too degraded with charring… But eventually, it was matched. The family will be informed, the DNA match will give them final closure,' the official said. Speaking to The Indian Express earlier Friday, Anil's older brother Rakesh said 'the reason for organising the symbolic funeral was that two weeks had passed since the crash'. 'The time had surpassed the stipulated window to organise the rituals as per our Swaminarayan traditions. We needed to perform the rituals within 12 days… His wife and family remained in hope that he, too, may have survived the crash… But the truth is bitter and we have to accept that no one else was lucky. It is all fate and God's will,' he said. 'There is no use of living in denial. He has two young children, whose future could be secured with the compensation money that has been promised but the person has been lost forever,' Rakesh said. Anil was a tile setter known for his 'skill' and 'precision'. Booked on Seat 21G, he was travelling to the UK for the first time, on an invitation from 'distant relatives' for six months. 'This was his first trip to London. He used to work in Seychelles before moving back to India and joining our family's maintenance business. Over the past few years, he mastered the skill of laying tiles… He was looking forward to making the most of the UK trip by exploring possibilities for a future move as well,' Rakesh said. Survived by his parents, wife and two daughters — one aged five years and the other a newborn of five months — Anil was the second among three siblings. His younger sister is settled in Uganda. On Thursday, as his family members organised the funeral at the local crematorium and the prayer meeting a day later at the Swaminarayan temple in Dahinsara, residents from the mixed neighbourhood gathered in large numbers to share their grief. In Ahmedabad, meanwhile, the body of British citizen Fiongal Cuchullain Greenlaw, the co-founder of Wellness Foundry, was handed over to his family members at the mortuary complex of the Civil Hospital. The body of his partner Jamie Ray Meek had been identified and handed over earlier. — With ENS, Ahmedabad

YDE Lumen30 recruits celebrate after 3 months of training
A renewable energy, independent power producer, Yellow Door Energy, recently hosted a graduation celebration for young people who were participating in the YDE Lumen30 initiative. The event, held at the ENS Pro bono offices in Alex Mall on June 24, marked the recruits' successful completion of phase 1 of the project. The initiative, co-founded by YDE and the Actis Acts charity organisation, focused on youth empowerment through skills development and training. The first phase of the programme involved training recruits in solar photovoltaic (PV) technology. Also read: SA Job Seekers Movement empowers Alex job seekers for success 'We are here to commemorate the end of phase 1, which was a three-month training programme with our partner Unathi Training Academy. It is an accredited qualification. We are here to celebrate and encourage them to keep going and make their strides in the industry,' said YDE South Africa assistant manager Khensane Nkomo. Talking about the initiative's impact on the country's ailing issue of unemployment, Nkomo emphasised the programme's aim to equip youth with the knowledge and skills they need to seize opportunities in the fast-growing renewable energy sector and to also empower themselves. The recruits lauded YDE and Actis Act for the impactful YDE Lumen30 initiative, underscoring its far-reaching impact on their lives. Boitumelo Senyolo said the lessons went beyond the solar photovoltaic technology education. 'I have always wanted to be a businessman, but I failed. When I came here, the YDE Lumen30 initiative brought people who directed and showed me how I can develop into a businessman.' Also read: Guardian Angel Wildlife and Marine Trust launches Mandela Day youth upliftment drive For Buhle Ncube, another recruit, when financial constraints limited her career opportunities shortly after she completed her matric, YDE Lumen30 came through. 'It is wonderful that it was for free; these types of courses often require people to pay, and owing to my disadvantaged background, I would not have been able to pay. I am grateful for this opportunity.' As the recruits celebrated the successful completion of Phase 1 of the initiative, they eagerly wait to apply their skills in the second phase, which will see a community centre in Alexandra receive a solar power plant for free.

Operation Lifesaver, Inc. Launches Inaugural ENS Sign Awareness Day on June 24
Campaign Spotlights Lifesaving Blue and White Signs at Railroad Crossings Do You Know This Blue and White Sign? Know the Signs and Signals Washington, D.C., June 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Operation Lifesaver, Inc. (OLI), the national rail safety education nonprofit, is urging the public to recognize and understand how to use Emergency Notification System (ENS) signs – not just on the first-ever Emergency Notification System (ENS) Sign Awareness Day, taking place Tuesday, June 24, 2025, but year-round. 'Located across the U.S. where roadways cross railroad tracks, ENS signs provide a critical connection to railroads in emergencies,' said OLI Executive Director Rachel Maleh. 'Recognizing and using this sign in a crisis – like a stuck vehicle or trouble on the tracks – can save lives, when seconds count.' Each rectangular Blue and White ENS sign displays a unique phone number and crossing ID – vital information that allows the public to report emergencies quickly, when every moment matters. See trouble on or near the tracks? Safely find the ENS sign, call the number listed and provide the crossing ID. This is also great information to share when calling 911. If your vehicle is stuck or stalls on the tracks: Get out immediately. Get far away from the tracks – even if no train is in sight. Find the ENS sign and call the number listed. Give the dispatcher the crossing ID. No sign, call 911. 'The sign may be small, but its impact is enormous,' said Maleh. 'This campaign empowers people with knowledge that can make all the difference in an emergency. Knowing what to do – and how to act quickly – can prevent a tragedy.' 'ENS Sign Awareness Day is a powerful reminder – but this is a message that matters every day of the year,' Maleh added. 'Together, we can stop track tragedies.' A Nationwide Awareness EffortENS Sign Awareness Day — June 24, 2025 — shines a spotlight on the lifesaving importance of the Blue and White Emergency Notification System (ENS) signs posted at railroad crossings.

Top Altcoins of the Week: Altcoin Market Pops As ETH, PI, And PEPE Post Double-Digit Gains
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. This week brought a wave of momentum across the altcoin market, fueled by Bitcoin's strength and growing optimism around macro developments like the recent U.S.-U.K. trade deal. The total altcoin market cap—including Ethereum—briefly surged more than 17% before cooling off late Friday, now sitting at $1.16 trillion. Here's a look at the five top-performing altcoins that led the charge. Don't Miss: — no wallets, just price speculation and free paper trading to practice different strategies.

The strong performances from altcoins this week highlight renewed confidence in the broader crypto market, but that excitement should be balanced with caution. Many of these assets remain well below their all-time highs—some still down over 70%. Rather than reacting to short-term percentage spikes, investors would be wise to evaluate real-world utility, tokenomics, and long-term viability. Timing and patience remain key.
