क्षेत्र के रतीराम गुर्जर आदि ने बताया कि सुबह सिलीसेढ़ क्षेत्र में करीब डेड घंटे झमाझम बरसात के बाद नदी में पानी आ गया। गरवाजी धाम पर पहाड़ों से गिरने वाले झरने में भी जोरदार पानी की आवक देखी गई, जिसके कारण आसपास के क्षेत्र में भूजल स्तर भी बढ़ेगा और किसानों को खेती में फायदा होगा। यह पानी सिलीसेढ़ झील में जाने से झील का पानी और बढ़ जाएगा। गत वर्ष भी सिलीसेढ़ झील की उपरा चल गई थी। इस बार भी उम्मीद हैं कि अच्छी बरसात होगी तो जल्दी ही सिलीसेढ़ झील की उपरा चल सकेगी। सिलीसेढ़ झील की भराव क्षमता 29 फीट है। </p>

<p>Chaitanya Baghel, son of former Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel, has been arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with a money laundering case linked to an alleged liquor scam. Earlier this morning, the ED conducted a raid at the former CM&#8217;s residence in Bhilai, information which Bhupesh Baghel himself shared via a tweet.</p>



<p>According to sources, the ED team has taken Chaitanya Baghel into custody for questioning. The ED&#8217;s action has heated up the state&#8217;s political climate. Congress workers attempted to stop the ED vehicle. However, it is noteworthy that the ED had previously questioned Chaitanya Baghel.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Documents Recovered During the Raid</h2>



<p>On Friday morning, the ED launched an operation against former CM Bhupesh Baghel and his son Chaitanya Baghel in Raipur concerning the liquor scam. Raids were conducted at several locations, including Bhupesh Baghel&#8217;s residence. During the raids, the ED seized crucial documents related to the alleged scam and questioned Chaitanya Baghel. According to ED sources, Chaitanya Baghel&#8217;s arrest was deemed necessary due to a lack of satisfactory responses during questioning.</p>

<p>BJP MLA Rakesh Sen, commenting on Bhupesh Baghel&#8217;s accusations regarding the ED raid, stated that the opposition did not participate in discussions on any issue during the four-day monsoon session, opting for walkouts each day. He highlighted the perceived weakness of the opposition in Chhattisgarh and questioned their avoidance of discussions on issues like the Adani matter, urging cooperation with the ED and discouraging accusations against the government.</p>



<p>He questioned why the ED did not raid the homes of Umesh Patel or Charandas Mahant, suggesting that the ED&#8217;s focus on Bhupesh Baghel&#8217;s residence indicated his alleged involvement in the scam. He further asserted that investigative agencies typically target those implicated in wrongdoing, noting that officials associated with Baghel are currently imprisoned. He concluded that Baghel&#8217;s actions are now resulting in consequences, coinciding with his son&#8217;s birthday.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Morning Raid</h2>



<p>Early Friday morning, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) team conducted a raid at Bhupesh Baghel&#8217;s private residence in Bhilai. Bhupesh Baghel himself posted about the raid on the social media platform X, stating, “ED has arrived. Today is the last day of the assembly session. The issue of trees being cut in Tamanar for Adani was to be raised today. &#8216;Saheb&#8217; has sent the ED to my Bhilai residence.” Despite the raid, Bhupesh Baghel proceeded to attend the assembly session.</p>



<p>It&#8217;s worth noting that the Chhattisgarh liquor scam has escalated from ₹2100 crore to ₹3200 crore, with agencies continuing their investigation. On Tuesday, the ED team conducted raids at the Bhilai residence, hotel, and other locations of hotel businessman Vijay Agrawal.</p>

<p><strong>Land for Job Scam:</strong> Lalu Prasad Yadav, the chief of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and former Chief Minister of Bihar, has suffered a major setback from the Supreme Court (SC) in the alleged ‘land for job’ scam. On Friday, 18 July 2025, the Supreme Court refused to consider Yadav’s petition seeking a stay on the ongoing proceedings in the lower court and the quashing of the FIR and chargesheet in this case. This case relates to the alleged acquisition of land in exchange for jobs during his tenure as Railway Minister (2004-2009).</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Supreme Court&#8217;s Decision</h2>



<p>The bench comprising Justices MM Sundresh and N Kotiswar Singh dismissed Yadav’s petition, stating that the proceedings in the lower court will continue. However, the court exempted him from personally appearing in the lower court. The Supreme Court requested the Delhi High Court to expedite the hearing on Yadav’s petition to quash the FIR in this case. The court stated in its order, “The personal appearance of the petitioner (Lalu Prasad Yadav) is excused. We request the High Court to expedite the hearing.”</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Delhi High Court&#8217;s Stance</h2>



<p>Earlier, on 29 May 2025, the Delhi High Court had dismissed Yadav’s plea to stay the ongoing proceedings in the lower court. However, the High Court had issued a notice for hearing on his petition to quash the FIR and chargesheet, with the next hearing scheduled for 12 August 2025. Yadav approached the Supreme Court to challenge this interim order.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What is the Case About?</h2>



<p>The ‘land for job’ scam is related to the alleged acquisition of land in exchange for railway jobs during Lalu Prasad Yadav’s tenure as Railway Minister. The CBI launched an investigation against Yadav and his family in this case. This Supreme Court decision is likely to accelerate the legal proceedings against Lalu Prasad Yadav.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Awaiting the Delhi High Court&#8217;s Next Hearing</h2>



<p>The hearing scheduled for 12 August in the Delhi High Court will now be crucial, where Yadav’s plea to quash the FIR and chargesheet will be considered. Until then, the proceedings in the lower court will continue uninterrupted.</p>

<p><strong>Ahmedabad Air India Plane Crash:</strong> Following the Ahmedabad plane crash, US media and officials are scrambling to defend Boeing, the aircraft manufacturer implicated in the incident. They are attempting to pre-empt the finding of any criminal cause in the accident. In a recent report, <i>The Wall Street Journal</i>, citing sources close to US aviation experts, published a story claiming that the preliminary investigation report indicates the cockpit voice recorder captured the junior pilot questioning who had cut off the fuel switch. However, no evidence has been presented to identify who actually switched it off.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">US Media Statement Deemed Irresponsible</h2>



<p>The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB), India&#8217;s investigating agency, labelled the <i>Wall Street Journal</i> report as irresponsible, stating that it represents a premature attempt to reach a conclusion. The Indian agency is currently meticulously investigating all possible aspects of the accident, including technical malfunctions, design flaws, and the pilots&#8217; mental state, and has not yet reached any conclusions. Previously, the US investigating agency had hastily issued a statement denying any malfunction in the Boeing aircraft&#8217;s fuel switch without conducting a proper investigation.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pilots&#8217; Federation Condemns US Media</h2>



<p>While no official statement has yet been released by Boeing, Air India, or India&#8217;s Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), Captain C.S. Randhawa, President of the Federation of Indian Pilots, has issued a statement strongly condemning the US media report. Randhawa stated that the US media report is entirely inaccurate and that the AAIB report makes no such mention. He accused them of preemptively assigning blame to the pilots without having read the report.</p>



<p>The pilots involved in the accident were Captain Sumit Sabharwal and First Officer Clive Kunder. Captain Sabharwal had 15,638 hours of flight experience, and First Officer Kunder had 3,403 hours. Last week, India&#8217;s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau released a preliminary report indicating a state of confusion in the cockpit immediately before the accident. This report raised further questions about the position of the engine fuel cut-off switch.</p>


<p>The Wall Street Journal, in its latest report, has attempted to characterise the Ahmedabad aircraft accident as a criminal conspiracy. The Indian investigative agency, the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau, has termed the American media report irresponsible.</p>

<p>The use of pre-approved loan amounts, or credit lines, within the UPI Wallet will now be restricted solely to the purpose for which the bank approved the loan. This new rule will come into effect from 31 August 2025. The National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has issued a circular in this regard.</p>



<p>According to the new circular, if a bank has provided a credit line facility on UPI to a user for a specific need, it must only be used to fulfil that need. NPCI has instructed all banks, payment companies, and UPI apps to implement these changes.</p>



<p>The facility to add credit lines on UPI was launched in April 2023, but the control and monitoring mechanisms were weak. It was often observed that customers did not use this loan for the purpose for which it was approved. This was impacting both the banking system and consumer protection. NPCI stated that new rules are being implemented to prevent the misuse of this facility. Many banks are offering credit lines of up to ₹200,000 on UPI.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What are the new rules?</h2>



<ol>
<li><strong>Correct Use of Loan:</strong> The loan must be used only for the purpose for which the bank approved it. For example, if someone has taken a loan for education, they will not be able to spend it elsewhere using UPI.</li>



<li><strong>Crucial Role of Banks:</strong> The bank will decide which transactions are approved and which are not. This decision will be made by the bank keeping in mind its policy and the purpose of the loan.</li>



<li><strong>Monitoring of all Transactions:</strong> If a customer uses the credit line for an incorrect purpose, the bank will be able to block it. This mechanism is considered the biggest advantage of this new system.</li>



<li><strong>Changes in Apps:</strong> All banks, UPI payment service providers, and app companies will have to add new codes to facilitate the use of interest-bearing credit lines.</li>
</ol>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What is the Credit Line Facility?</h2>



<p>Previously, only savings accounts, wallets, or RuPay credit cards could be linked via UPI, but later the credit line facility was also added. This is a type of loan that is pre-approved by banks for their customers. Similar to a credit card, a certain amount is set for the customer to spend. However, instead of receiving the entire loan amount, the customer can use the money little by little via UPI as needed. If the user does not have funds in their savings account or UPI wallet, they can use this loan amount for payments as needed. Interest is charged by the bank not on the entire loan amount, but only on the amount spent.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to Link a Credit Line Account?</h2>



<ul>
<li>Banks provide the credit line facility only to customers with a good credit score.</li>



<li>First, download the UPI app from the Play Store. Complete the registration process and select the credit line as an option.</li>



<li>Select your issuer bank&#8217;s name from the drop-down menu. Once the mobile number is updated with the issuer bank, the masked (masked: credit line) will appear on the screen.</li>



<li>Select the credit line account you wish to link and confirm. Then generate the UPI PIN.</li>



<li>The loan repayment terms depend on the issuing bank.</li>
</ul>


<p>According to the new circular, if a bank has provided a UPI credit line facility to a user for a specific need, then it must only be used to fulfil that need. The new rule will come into effect from 31 August.</p>

<p>Many students in India are unable to fulfil their dream of studying at foreign universities due to high costs. Now, they will be able to do so at a lower cost while remaining in the country. This is becoming possible with the new National Education Policy. Southampton University (UK) inaugurated its first such campus in Gurugram on Wednesday. This is being considered a milestone in India&#8217;s higher education landscape.</p>



<p>Southampton University will offer degrees in computing, law, business, etc. It is expected that 5,500 students will enrol annually. According to the University Grants Commission (UGC), campuses of 15 foreign universities may be established in India by 2027. It is estimated that tuition fees here will be 25-40% lower than at their US campuses.</p>



<p>Under the new UGC regulations, the top 500 global institutions will be allowed to establish fully autonomous campuses in India, with their own admission criteria, fee structure, and degree accreditation. This will provide Indians with world-class education at a lower cost. It is estimated that an Indian student going abroad spends an average of $60,000 on education.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Universities Coming to India</h2>



<p>1- Illinois Institute of Technology (USA) will open its campus in Mumbai by 2026, offering STEM and business programs. This will be the first US university to do so.<br>2- Liverpool University, Aberdeen, and York (UK), and the University of Western Australia have received letters of intent to open their campuses by the end of 2026.<br>3- Istituto Europeo di Design (Italy) is opening its campus in Mumbai, offering degrees in fashion, product, and visual design at 25-30% less cost than its European campuses.<br>4- The University of Chicago and the University of Utah (USA) are opening campuses in Bengaluru. The University of Pittsburgh and Duquesne University (both USA) will also establish campuses in India.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Reasons for Coming to India</h2>



<ol>
<li><strong>Policy Uncertainty:</strong> Strict visa policies and political tensions during the administration of US President Donald Trump led to a decrease in enrolments. Students are hesitant to go to the US.</li>



<li><strong>Diversifying Revenue:</strong> Diversifying revenue streams amidst increasing competition, achieving financial stability along with expanding brand presence.</li>



<li><strong>Geopolitical Balancing:</strong> In an increasingly multipolar world, re-orienting its international strategy while avoiding regional disruptions.</li>
</ol>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">India: A Large Market</h2>



<p>More than 50% of the population is under 30 years of age<br>Higher education is projected to exceed $300 billion by 2030<br>Currently, only 30% of college-age youth are enrolled<br>More than 1.3 million went abroad for studies in 2024.<br>More than 65% of those going abroad went to the US and Canada.</p>


<p>Under the new National Education Policy (NEP), the University of Southampton (UK) has opened its first campus in Gurugram. This will enable Indian students to study at a foreign university at a lower cost. This is a significant step in India&#8217;s higher education landscape and will provide new opportunities for students.</p>
