Tatkal Ticket Booking Rules: Indian Railways has implemented a significant change to its Tatkal ticket booking rules, effective July 1, 2025. The new rule mandates Aadhaar verification for Tatkal ticket bookings. This means passengers whose IRCTC accounts are not linked to Aadhaar will not be able to book Tatkal tickets online or offline. The Ministry of Railways issued a directive to all railway zones on Tuesday. It stated that the aim of this requirement is to ensure that the benefits of the Tatkal scheme reach genuine users.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Railway Ministry&#8217;s Circular</h2>



The Railway Ministry has issued a circular to all zones. It states that from July 1st, tickets under the Tatkal scheme can only be booked via the IRCTC website/app by Aadhaar-authenticated users. Furthermore, the ministry has stipulated that from July 15, 2025, passengers will have to complete an additional step of Aadhaar-based OTP authentication for Tatkal bookings.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Agents Also Restricted for 30 Minutes</h2>



Railway ticket agents will also be unable to book tickets for 30 minutes before the Tatkal ticket booking opens. For AC class, this period will be from 10:00 AM to 10:30 AM, and for non-AC class, it will be from 11:00 AM to 11:30 AM.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ashwini Vaishnaw&#8217;s Indication</h2>



Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw hinted at this change on June 4th via a post on X. In his X post, Ashwini Vaishnaw stated that Indian Railways (Bharatiya Railways) will soon begin using e-Aadhaar authentication for booking Tatkal tickets. This will help genuine users obtain confirmed tickets when needed.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Curbing Fraudulent Bookings</h2>



This move by the railways aims to curb fraudulent bookings made using fake accounts, duplicate IDs, and bots. Media reports suggest that over 67,000 tickets are booked within seconds of the Tatkal booking opening, many of which are booked fraudulently or by agents.

A total of 241 people died in the Ahmedabad plane crash. One person survived the accident. The United States has also offered assistance in the investigation of the Air India Boeing 787 plane crash. The US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has announced that it is sending a specialist investigation team to India, which will cooperate with India&#8217;s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau in investigating the accident.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Engine Failure: The Leading Cause</h2>



Engine failure is considered the most likely cause of the plane crash. Passenger planes have two engines; if one fails, the other continues to function, making the aircraft safer. Experts consider the possibility of engine failure in the Ahmedabad case to be negligible.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bird Strike and Subsequent Fire</h2>



Bird strike is considered another major cause of plane crashes. A collision with a bird or object can cause a fire and a subsequent crash. However, in the Ahmedabad incident, there is no indication of a fire while the Air India plane was falling. The explosion occurred after the plane hit the ground.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Technical Malfunction as a Contributing Factor</h2>



Technical malfunction is considered a third major cause of the accident. Although flights undergo thorough checks before takeoff, a technical malfunction is being cited as a possible cause of this accident. The pilot contacted ATC shortly before the crash, reporting a lack of thrust.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stall as a Possible Cause</h2>



A stall is another possible cause of the plane crash. A stall occurs when the wings of an aircraft do not receive enough airflow to maintain lift, causing a sudden descent. To take off, a plane needs to reach a maximum speed of 300 KMPH. 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">126,000 Litres of Fuel Turned the Crash into a Fireball</h2>



The plane became a fireball upon impact. The aircraft was carrying a full load of fuel, which ignited on impact. The plane&#8217;s total fuel capacity was reportedly 126,000 litres. Approximately 55,000 litres were needed for the flight to London. The plane was carrying extra fuel. Sometimes, planes are unable to land due to unforeseen circumstances and need to remain airborne, necessitating extra fuel.

In an Air India Boeing 787 aircraft accident, 241 people lost their lives. Experts are now investigating the causes of the accident.

Rajasthan Government: A significant event is scheduled for Friday in Banswara, a tribal-dominated district of Rajasthan. This event is poised not only to transform the lives of millions of families but also potentially influence the state&#8217;s political trajectory. Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma will be present to distribute homes to over 2.5 lakh beneficiaries under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Gramin) (Prime Minister&#8217;s Housing Scheme &#8211; Rural) at a state-level function.



Approximately ₹400 crore will be directly transferred to the beneficiaries&#8217; accounts. This amount represents the first, second, and third installments for house construction. Notably, those whose houses are already complete will receive symbolic keys on stage, while new beneficiaries will receive housing sanction letters.



However, the most significant aspect of this event is its strategic importance in the context of election preparations. The BJP aims to strengthen its tribal base in the Wagad region, encompassing Banswara, Dungarpur, Pratapgarh, and Salumber districts. This event is therefore considered a strategic move ahead of the panchayat elections.



Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and several senior state ministers will share the stage at the event. This is not merely a development programme but also a demonstration of the balance of power and organisation. An exhibition by the agriculture and horticulture departments will also be held for farmers, showcasing models such as polyhouses, shade nets, and improved mango varieties. The selection of Banswara is not coincidental. Bordering Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat, the tribal equation in this district is crucial for the BJP. This is why the event is being viewed as a major political signal.

This event is being seen as a strategic move directly before the Panchayat Raj elections.

Tensions have long existed between Israel and Iran , escalating further following Israel&#8217;s recent conflict with Hamas, a Palestinian militant group, and Hezbollah, a Lebanese militant organisation. Iran has long been a major supporter of both groups, fueling its resentment towards Israel&#8217;s actions. However, Israel has now reportedly eliminated key militants and leaders from both organisations, significantly weakening them. Now, Israel is reportedly considering actions against Iran that could cause widespread devastation in the Middle East.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Israel Fully Prepared for Military Operation in Iran</h2>



Sources indicate that Israel is fully prepared for a military operation in Iran. The Israeli army has been preparing for this for some time, and their preparations are now complete.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Israel Informs the United States</h2>



Sources suggest that Israel has informed the United States Of America about its plan. The US has long been a supporter of Israel, providing crucial assistance during the conflict with Hamas. Conversely, the US and Iran have a long history of strained relations, although both countries are currently engaged in negotiations regarding a nuclear agreement.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">US Issues Order for Middle East Embassies</h2>



Meanwhile, the US has instructed several employees, along with their families, from three of its Middle East embassies to return home. This includes the embassy in Baghdad, Iraq, as well as those in Kuwait and Bahrain.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Impact of Israeli Action on the US</h2>



Any Israeli action against Iran would inevitably impact the United States. How? An Israeli attack would likely provoke a retaliatory response from Iran, potentially including attacks on US military bases in Iraq.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Another War Could Erupt in the Middle East</h2>



A potential Israeli military operation against Iran would undoubtedly heighten tensions in the Middle East. Iran has repeatedly stated that any attack would be met with retaliation. There is a strong possibility that the Iranian military is prepared for such a response. Furthermore, if Iran were to attack US military bases in Iraq, US forces might join Israel against Iran, increasing the likelihood of another war and significant devastation.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Consequences of Attacking Iran&#8217;s Nuclear Sites</h2>



Speculation persists that Israel might target Iran&#8217;s nuclear facilities. Such an attack could result in the immediate deaths of 10,000-20,000 people, with the potential for hundreds of thousands more deaths from subsequent nuclear radiation. Iran lacks robust measures to contain nuclear radiation, potentially escalating the conflict significantly.

Sonam Raghuvanshi: Indore-based transport businessman Raja Raghuvanshi&#8217;s wife Sonam, arrested in connection with his murder while honeymooning in Shillong, along with her alleged lover Raj and three accomplices, were produced in the district court on Wednesday. Additional SP Ashish Singh of Shillong Khasi Hills East stated that all have been remanded for 7 days. During interrogation, Sonam confessed to orchestrating Raja&#8217;s murder with the help of others. The accused arrived in Shillong before Raja and Sonam, conducted reconnaissance, planned the crime, and executed it as per Sonam&#8217;s instructions.



Raja and Sonam&#8217;s families in Indore have made significant revelations in the rapidly unfolding murder case. Speaking to Patrika, Raja&#8217;s brother Vipin mentioned a chat, stating that Sonam had instructed Raj to kill Raja. On May 11th, they got married, and on May 13th, a chat revealed Sonam telling Raj, &#8220;I am tired of this torture. Either I will die, or you will kill him.&#8221; Meanwhile, Sonam&#8217;s brother Govind revealed that they checked call recordings after suspecting Raj and Sonam&#8217;s relationship.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Sonam&#8217;s Brother Wept Uncontrollably</h2>



After his sister&#8217;s (Sonam Raghuvanshi) confession and the revelation of all facts, Sonam&#8217;s brother Govind returned to Indore on Wednesday afternoon and went straight to Raja&#8217;s house. He apologised to Raja&#8217;s mother, embraced her, and wept uncontrollably, pleading, &#8220;Hang my sister and the accused. I have already expelled Sonam from the family.&#8221; Govind&#8217;s weeping deeply affected everyone present. He first apologised to Raja&#8217;s mother (inset) and then said, &#8220;The family has suffered a great loss.&#8221;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Govind Said Sonam Was Nervous When Raja Was Paying the Dowry</h2>



Sonam&#8217;s brother Govind, stated that he was searching for her in Shillong. At 12:30 AM, Sonam called, saying she was at a roadside eatery on the highway. He then contacted the local police. Subsequently, he travelled from Guwahati to Kolkata and then Gorakhpur. In a brief conversation with his sister, she confessed to killing Raja and being kidnapped. The police then took her away. In the morning, the family learned that Raj had been apprehended. Raj used to tie Rakhi with Sonam in Govind&#8217;s presence. He didn&#8217;t attend Sonam&#8217;s wedding, claiming a family wedding on May 9th. Sonam was nervous when Raja was paying the dowry. It was later discovered that Sonam had returned to Indore on May 25th. His company HR informed him that Raj was not coming to the office on time.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Vipin Said Sonam Asked Raj to Kill, and Raj Agreed</h2>



Raja&#8217;s (Raja Raghuvanshi murder case) brother Vipin stated that the plot to murder his brother began on May 13th. A chat between Sonam and Raj revealed a 3 AM message: &#8220;I am tired of this torture. Either I will die, or you will kill him. I cannot have a relationship with Raja. I feel guilty&#8230; kill him.&#8221; Raj replied, &#8220;I will.&#8221; After Raja&#8217;s murder, Sonam came to Indore. On May 25th and 26th, she stayed in a rented accommodation near Lasudia police station with Raj. Later, Raj booked a taxi to Ghazipur for ₹30,000. Sonam then bought two phones. Raj&#8217;s aunt lives near Ghazipur. Sonam stayed at her aunt&#8217;s house for several days. Raj and his accomplices were apprehended; two people put her on a bus. She then reached a roadside eatery in Ghazipur.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stayed at In-laws&#8217; for Four Days After Wedding, Chatted with Raj</h2>



Sonam stayed at Raja&#8217;s house (in-laws&#8217;) for four days after the wedding. During this time, she remained in contact with her lover Raj. She had two mobile phones. She told Raja&#8217;s sister-in-law Kiran that one phone was for the office and the other for home. Raja trusted her and never checked her phone.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Surveillance Through Aadhaar Card and PSTN Data</h2>



Sonam took her husband to a picnic spot. She sent the attackers the live location via mobile. Shortly after, the accused arrived and committed the murder. Police investigated the active mobile numbers found in Aadhaar card and mobile tower data. Suspicious numbers were traced to Indore. The police then pieced together the crime. The identification documents used for hotel bookings helped the police identify the accused.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Blame Game Continues&#8230; Accused Accusing Each Other of Being the Mastermind</h2>



Shillong DIG David NR Mark stated that five accused, including Sonam, have been arrested. They were produced in court and a 10-day police remand was sought, but 8 days were granted. Interrogations are underway. Initial questioning revealed that all accused, including Sonam, have confessed. A blame game continues, with each accusing the other of being the mastermind. A crime scene recreation will be conducted if necessary.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Mangalsutra Found in a Suitcase, Deepened Suspicion</h2>



<ul>
<li>When Raja and Sonam went missing, police searched Sonam&#8217;s belongings and found her mangalsutra and ring in her suitcase.</li>



<li>She did not wear the mangalsutra on her honeymoon trip, increasing police suspicion.</li>



<li>During the accused&#8217;s appearance in the Shillong district court, local residents expressed their anger, shouting slogans and condemning the murder and tarnishing of Meghalaya&#8217;s image.</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Meghalaya Police to Recreate the Crime Scene</h2>



Police produced Sonam and other accused in court on Wednesday evening and sought remand. The court remanded Sonam and all accused for 8 days of police custody. Meghalaya police are reportedly preparing to recreate the entire crime scene.

Elevated Bridge in Indore: An elevated bridge between MR 9 and Naulkha Chowraha is necessary, considering the city&#8217;s future. Currently, the Indore Development Authority (IDA) is planning flyover bridges at these intersections, for which a team of city experts and engineers has prepared a report. This report reveals that the distances between the two bridges are quite short, which would transform them into accident zones. Development should be such that it becomes a gift for future generations, not a problem.



This report has been prepared by the Indore Uththan Abhiyan Samiti. The committee called prominent city figures and gave a comparative presentation of the elevated bridge and flyover bridges. President Ajit Singh Narang explained that the committee also showed the presentation to Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav, Urban Administration Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya, Mayor Pushyamitra Bhargav, and IDA CEO R.P. Ahirwar.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">These are the Flyover Bridges</h2>



● LIG Chowraha



● Industry House, Guitar Tiraha and Palasia Chowraha



● Geeta Bhavan Chowraha



● Shivaji Watica and GPO Chowraha



● Naulkha Chowraha



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Glance at the Distances Between Bridges&#8230;</h2>



● 506 meters distance between the exit of the LIG Chowraha bridge and the start of the Palasia Chowraha bridge.



● 130 meters distance between the exit of the Palasia Chowraha bridge and the start of the Geeta Bhavan bridge.



● 268 meters distance between the exit of the Geeta Bhavan Chowraha bridge and the start of the Shivaji Watica Chowraha bridge.



● 151 meters distance between the exit of the Shivaji Watica bridge and the start of the GPO Chowraha bridge. (The IDA is now combining both bridges.)



● 635 meters distance between the exit of the GPO bridge and the start of the Naulkha Chowraha bridge.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Understanding the Bridge Problem</h2>



The distance between the exit of an overbridge at an intersection and the entry of another bridge is significant. Vehicles in the area also ascend and descend from these points. The distance between the two creates a risk of accidents. Furthermore, as the city expands and the number of vehicles increases in the future, overbridges at intersections will create problems.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Advantages of an Elevated Bridge</h2>



The report describes the elevated bridge as modern and effective for the future. The committee believes that if the bridge&#8217;s width seems less, it should be increased to six lanes.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Proposed Approaches for the Elevated Bridge</h2>



The report suggests creating ramps for accessing the elevated bridge. It recommends building ramps on both sides of the bridge at Naulkha, Shivaji Watica, and LIG Chowraha. It also suggests creating ramps from Kanchan Bagh towards Geeta Bhavan, from MG Road to Palasia Chowraha for ascent and descent at Guitar Chowraha, and an access ramp at Industry House.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Attractive Intersections</h2>



The plan also includes creating attractive roundabouts at Naulkha, Shivaji Watica, and LIG Chowraha. The areas under the elevated bridge with pillars can be beautified by developing gardens.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Work Based on Modi&#8217;s Formula</h2>



The report is prepared according to Prime Minister Narendra Modi&#8217;s concept. He has stated that modern and well-planned cities in India will determine India&#8217;s destiny. Therefore, we must build world-class infrastructure. This requires modern planning, better designing, and robust construction. Innovative ideas, new definitions, and new parameters should be set.

Indian Railways: Jaipur. Infrastructure development, new lines, doubling, gauge conversion, and electrification works are being rapidly implemented to strengthen rail connectivity in Rajasthan. Meanwhile, the state has received another major gift from the central government. On Monday, the central government approved the final location survey for a new 96-kilometre railway line connecting Marwar Bagra (Jalore)-Sirohi-Swrupganj to enhance rail connectivity in the tribal-dominated region of the state.



Jalore is an important city in Rajasthan, located on the Samdari-Bhildi-Gandhidham rail route. Sirohi, the district headquarters, is located near Delhi-Ajmer-Abu Road-Ahmedabad. Regarding connecting the Sirohi district headquarters to the country&#8217;s railway network, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav (अश्विनी वैष्णव) stated that the long-standing demand to connect Sirohi to the rail network has now been fulfilled.

WHO salt intake recommendation: According to a New Zealand report, 80% of the salt consumed in India comes from home-cooked food. Especially in northern states, cultural and dietary habits lead people to consume more than 12 grams of salt daily. 



This amount is more than double the recommendation from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Institute of Nutrition, which advise consuming less than 5 grams (approximately one teaspoon) of salt daily.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What are the harms of consuming too much salt? (WHO salt intake recommendation)</h2>



Excessive salt intake (Salt Intake) increases the risk of high blood pressure (Hypertension), which can lead to heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems. Worryingly, approximately 175,000 deaths in India each year are attributed to excessive salt consumption, as it exacerbates high blood pressure.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Habit of consuming excessive salt; home-cooked food is also a reason</h2>



80% of the salt we consume (Salt Intake) comes from home-cooked meals or added salt. Everyday items like pickles, papad, chutney, salads, and buttermilk significantly increase the salt content in our diet. The remaining salt comes from restaurant food, street food, and packaged snacks or ready-to-eat items.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Some misconceptions about salt</h2>



There are some common misconceptions about salt. Pink salt, rock salt, and sea salt contain as much sodium as regular white salt. The difference in minerals is negligible because we consume them in such small quantities that they offer no significant benefit. Using iodised salt is crucial for good health.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why is consuming too much salt dangerous?</h2>



We consume too much salt: Indians consume 8 to 11 grams of salt (Salt Intake) daily, almost double the amount (5 grams) recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO).



Salt&#8217;s threat to life: Excessive salt consumption leads to high blood pressure, resulting in approximately 175,000 deaths in India annually.



Millions suffer from high blood pressure: High blood pressure, a major cause of heart disease, affects 220 million people in India.



The same situation worldwide: Globally, 2.6 million deaths occur annually due to heart disease, with more than half attributed to high blood pressure.



Increasing risk in children: Approximately 70 million adolescents (youth) in India live with high blood pressure. They have a seven times higher risk of developing high blood pressure in adulthood.



Benefits of reducing salt: Reducing salt intake can prevent and control high blood pressure. This also reduces the risk of heart attacks and strokes.



Small reduction, big benefits: If India reduces daily salt consumption by just 3 grams, the risk of heart attacks could decrease by 4.6%, total deaths by 4.9%, and stroke risk by 6.5%.

Train ticket confirmation: Chart to be prepared 24 hours before journey instead of 4 hours

Indian Railways: Indian Railways has undertaken a significant initiative to enhance passenger convenience. The waiting list chart for reserved tickets will now be prepared 24 hours before the journey, instead of 4 hours previously. This change will provide passengers ample time to make alternative travel arrangements and will also increase transparency in the railway system.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New initiative launched on June 6th</h2>



This scheme was initially launched as a pilot project on a single train in the Bikaner division on June 6th. According to railway sources, the experiment has yielded positive results in the initial four days. This allows passengers to know in advance whether their tickets will be confirmed, enabling them to plan alternative travel arrangements if necessary.

Following the successful trial in Bikaner, this initiative will be implemented on other busy routes across the country. This includes routes from Delhi to states like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, West Bengal, Maharashtra, and Gujarat, where waiting lists are typically very long.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Plans to add extra coaches and run clone trains</h2>



This proposal was put forward by railway officials during the Railway Minister&#8217;s visit to Bikaner, and was immediately approved. Officials stated that preparing the chart a day in advance will give the railways time to plan the addition of extra coaches and the operation of clone trains.

Currently, the chart is prepared at the last minute, causing problems for passengers and leaving the railways with insufficient time to add coaches or take other measures. Furthermore, an average of 21% of passengers cancel their bookings after ticket confirmation, and 4-5% do not travel at all. Preparing the chart a day in advance will allow the railways to better anticipate the actual number of passengers.



Importantly, the existing process for Tatkal (instant) tickets will remain unchanged despite this new system.
