<p>This year, Amarnath Yatra registrations have seen a 10.19% decrease. Lt. Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, Manoj Sinha, explained that those who had registered by 22 April were contacted to confirm their continued participation. Over 85,000 people confirmed their intention to proceed with the Amarnath Yatra.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Enthusiasm for Amarnath Yatra Registration was at its Peak</h2>



<p>The LG stated that before the Pahalgam attack on 22 April, enthusiasm for Amarnath Yatra registrations was at its peak. However, following the attack, interest waned, resulting in a 10.19% decrease compared to last year. Manoj Sinha reported that 2.36 lakh people had registered for the Amarnath Yatra.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Security Forces Successfully Regained Pilgrims&#8217; Trust</h2>



<p>Sinha stated that the Jammu and Kashmir administration and security forces have successfully regained the trust of pilgrims, leading to the resumption of Amarnath Yatra registrations. Sinha added that the Pahalgam terrorist attack negatively impacted the overall atmosphere in the valley. Extensive security forces have been deployed for the pilgrimage. The Amarnath Yatra will commence on 3 July and conclude on 9 August.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Three-Tier Security at Amarnath Yatra Base Camp</h2>



<p>Sinha mentioned that a three-tier security system will be in place at the Amarnath Yatra Base Camp. Security forces are currently conducting rehearsals and mock drills. Additional police personnel and security forces have been deployed. Verification of all service providers has also been completed. The Amarnath Yatra Helicopter Service has been cancelled this year due to various reasons. As only about 8% of pilgrims utilise this service, its cancellation will not significantly impact the Yatra.</p>

Train Ticket Price: Rail travel to get costlier from 1 July, here's how AC and sleeper fares will change


<p>Train travel is set to become more expensive. Indian Railway is planning to implement a new tariff from 1 July 2025, aiming to generate an additional ₹990 crore annually. However, no official announcement has been made by the railway authorities yet. The last fare increase was on 1 January 2020.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2 Paise per Kilometre Hike in AC Fares</h2>



<p>According to the new tariff, there will be no increase for journeys up to 500 kilometres in general second class. For journeys exceeding 500 kilometres, an additional 0.5 paise per kilometre will be charged. Passengers travelling in sleeper class of mail/express trains will have to pay 1 paise more per kilometre. Similarly, those travelling in AC classes will pay 2 paise more per kilometre. However, there will be no increase in fares for suburban trains or monthly season tickets.</p>



<p>For example, the distance between Bhopal and Delhi is 700 kilometres. Currently, the AC3 fare is ₹1090. From 1 July, it will increase by approximately ₹14. The sleeper fare from Varanasi to Mumbai will increase from ₹575 to ₹590. The general coach fare from Bhubaneswar to Kanyakumari will increase by ₹11.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Government&#8217;s Plans for Additional Revenue</h2>



<p>In the 2025-26 budget, the railway estimated revenue based on passenger kilometres and class. The fare increase aims for an annual revenue increase of ₹990 crore, but after three months, this year&#8217;s profit will be approximately ₹700 crore. The additional revenue from the fare increase is reportedly intended to reduce railway subsidy deficits and improve services. The railway incurs losses due to subsidies on passenger trains. Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw had stated that the railway spends ₹1.38 per passenger per kilometre but earns only ₹0.71.</p>



<p>The Indian Railways&#8217; largest revenue sources are freight and passenger trains, contributing approximately 90% of revenue. The remaining 10% comes from sources such as retiring room rentals, bridge tolls, and land leases. In 2023-24, the railway earned ₹2.56 lakh crore and spent ₹2.52 lakh crore, resulting in earnings exceeding ₹3,000 crore. The 2023 CAG report recorded a loss of ₹68,269 crore in the passenger segment for 2021-22, indicating a continuing deficit in this area.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Major Decision Regarding Waiting Tickets</h2>



<p>Previously, the railway implemented a system where passengers with waiting train tickets would know about confirmation status four hours before their journey. However, the railway is now working on a new system. The railway stated that the chart showing confirmed seats will now be released 24 hours before the journey commences. Preparations for this have begun, and trials have commenced. From 6 June, this system has been launched under a pilot project in the Bikaner division.</p>

<p>The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) has unearthed remnants of a civilisation dating back to 3500-1000 BCE in Bahj village, Dholpur district, Rajasthan. A 23-metre deep ancient river system (palaeochannel) has also been discovered at the same site. Archaeological researchers are connecting this to the Saraswati River mentioned in the Rigveda.</p>



<p>It is claimed that this ancient water system may have been the foundation of a civilisation that flourished along the banks of the Saraswati River. Located fifty kilometres from Mathura, this site is a crucial link in understanding the cultural heritage of the Saraswati basin. Five months of excavation have yielded, besides statues of Hindu deities, ancient ornaments belonging to this civilisation.</p>



<p>At a depth of about 4 metres, a female skeleton and a large number of ancient silver and copper coins have also been found. Following information about the village&#8217;s association with the grandson of Lord Krishna, Vajranatha&#8217;s Kheda, located on the Govindan road, the ASI commenced excavation on 10 January last year. Research on the discovered remains is underway.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Hoard of Mahabharata-Era Pottery Discovered</h2>



<p>Bone tools, semi-precious stone beads and conch bangles, 15 sacrificial pits (yagna kunds), and statues of Shiva and Parvati have been found. These are estimated to be more than 1000 BCE. Seals with Brahmi script, sacrificial pits from the Mahajanapada period filled with sand and soil, and copper coins in small pots have also been unearthed. A treasure trove of pottery from the Mahabharata period has been discovered. Walls have been found beneath the mound.</p>



<p>Jain inscriptions mention Bahj village as Vajnagar. The mounds here are also referred to as Kankali Tila. The name Bahj is believed to be a tadbhava (popularly evolved form) of Vaj Nagari. A significant portion of the village&#8217;s ancient mound is being encroached upon by the expanding settlement. It lies on the Brij Chaurasi Kos Parikrama route.</p>

<p><strong>Cyber Crime Awareness:</strong> The Indian government has decided to immediately discontinue the caller tune featuring Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan that was being used for cyber crime awareness. This caller tune, which played for 40 seconds before every mobile call, had become a source of annoyance for consumers. The Ministry of Communications took this significant step in response to public complaints and delays in emergencies.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why was this caller tune launched?</h2>



<p>In view of the rising cases of cyber fraud and digital scams in India, the government had instructed telecom companies to play an awareness message before every call. This message, voiced by Amitabh Bachchan, advised people against fraudulent calls, phishing, and sharing unknown links or OTPs. This initiative was initially lauded, given the thousands of people falling victim to cybercrimes daily in the country. However, the repetitive 40-second message, especially during emergency calls, became a source of frustration for many.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Public Complaints Lead to Decision Reversal</h2>



<p>For the past few months, social media users had been demanding the discontinuation of this caller tune. Many users described it as “irritating” and a cause of “unnecessary delays”. Sudarshan Gupta, a former BJP MLA from Indore, raised this issue with Union Communications Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia. He highlighted the delays caused by the tune during emergencies, such as calls to ambulances or the police, which could have serious consequences.</p>



<p>Sudarshan Gupta stated, “I myself experienced twice how this tune hindered calls for immediate help to an injured person in a road accident. Even elderly people are complaining about it.” Expressing agreement with his complaint, Jyotiraditya Scindia said, “I too have experienced this problem. Action will be taken soon.”</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Amitabh Bachchan&#8217;s Response</h2>



<p>Amitabh Bachchan was also trolled on social media by some users regarding this caller tune. One user wrote, “Stop talking on the phone, brother.” In response, Big B, in his characteristic witty style, said, “Tell the government, brother, they asked me to do it, so I did.” This response garnered significant attention on social media.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Campaign Ends</h2>



<p>This caller tune was part of a government campaign to raise awareness against cyber criminals. With the campaign now concluded, the government has decided to remove the caller tune.</p>

Gold price down silver follows what is behind the sudden fall


<p><strong>Gold Price Today:</strong> Gold prices witnessed a significant drop on Tuesday in both domestic and global markets. On the MCX exchange, gold futures were trading at ₹98,173 per 10 grams on Tuesday morning, down 1.22% or ₹1215.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Global Market Gold Slump</h2>



<p>Globally, gold prices also experienced a sharp decline on Tuesday. On COMEX, gold futures were trading at $3365.10 per ounce this morning, down 0.88% or $29.90. Meanwhile, spot gold was trading at $3350.21 per ounce, down 0.55% or $18.27.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why the Sudden Drop in Gold Prices?</h2>



<p>Gold prices had been rising for the past few days. However, the announcement of a ceasefire between Iran and Israel by US President Donald Trump has impacted the demand for gold as a safe-haven asset. This is directly reflected in today&#8217;s gold price drop. Trump stated that both Iran and Israel have agreed to a ceasefire. Following this news, gold in global markets fell to its lowest level in two weeks.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What are the Experts Saying?</h2>



<p>The ceasefire between Iran and Israel has reduced the demand for gold as a safe-haven asset. Investors are now focusing on the Federal Reserve. With inflation in the US remaining lower than expected, the Fed may cut rates at its upcoming meeting. If this happens, gold could become more attractive to investors. Experts suggest that ₹97,900 per 10 grams is a support level for MCX gold, while resistance is seen at ₹98,600.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Silver Prices</h2>



<p>Along with gold, domestic silver futures prices are also falling today. On the MCX exchange, silver futures opened at ₹106,502 per kilogram, down 0.24%. In early trading, it reached a low of ₹105,905 per kilogram.</p>
