Published: May 25 2025, 9 ameznews.inChina is reportedly waging an unconventional war against India through a deadly combination of extortion, armed violence, and drug trafficking, primarily in the northeastern states. Armed insurgent groups, such as the National Socialist Council of Nagaland - Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) and the Zomi Revolutionary Army (ZRA), have been funded by China for decades, instilling fear in local communities where families face the dual threat of recruitment into these groups and drug addiction. Government employees are subjected to an unofficial "sovereignty tax," with up to 22% of their salaries deducted by insurgents. This extortion extends to all trades, significantly inflating prices of goods, while the NSCN-IM plans to raise over Rs 158 crore in fiscal 2025-26 through various taxes. Despite efforts by local police and military to combat these groups, the cycle of violence continues, fueled by sophisticated Chinese weaponry and financial support.
Published: May 25 2025, 8 ameznews.inFormer Bihar minister Tej Pratap Yadav has alleged that his Facebook account was "hacked" after a controversial post claimed he was in a long-term relationship with a woman named Anushka Yadav. The post, which has since been deleted, featured a photo of the two and stated they had been together for 12 years, prompting backlash from social media users who pointed out his marriage in 2018 to Aishwarya, the granddaughter of former Bihar chief minister Daroga Rai. Aishwarya left Yadav's home shortly after their marriage, alleging mistreatment. In response to the incident, Yadav took to X to assert that the post was an attempt to "defame and harass" him and his family, while urging his followers to disregard any rumors. It remains unclear whether he has lodged a police complaint regarding the hacking of his account.

Published: May 25 2025, 12 ameznews.inIn Madhya Pradesh's Jabalpur, a young man named Satyendra Nishad impersonated a doctor for years using stolen documents and the identity of his school friend, Brijraj Uike. His deception came to light after Manoj Kumar, a railway officer, raised suspicions following his mother’s death at Marble City Hospital. Discrepancies in the hospital's records regarding her treatment prompted Kumar to investigate the doctor’s credentials. Satyendra had stolen Uike's Class 12 marksheet to gain MBBS admission under the tribal quota in 2018, subsequently practicing medicine in both government and private hospitals. Jabalpur's Chief Medical and Health Officer, Dr. Sanjay Mishra, noted that verifying credentials becomes challenging when initial documents are fraudulent. The police have registered a case against Satyendra under various sections of the IPC, and he is currently at large as authorities continue their investigation.
Published: May 25 2025, 12 ameznews.inISRO's attempt to launch the PSLV-C61 rocket carrying the EOS-9 Earth observation satellite ended in failure on Sunday, just seven minutes after takeoff. In response, the agency has established a National Failure Analysis Committee, comprising experts from prestigious institutions like IISc and IITs, to investigate the incident, with a report expected by mid-next month. The PSLV, known for its reliability with only four failures in 63 launches, remains the only rocket currently grounded due to a suspected malfunction in its third stage motor. Experts suggest a possible rupture in the motor's fibre casing may have caused the issue, though investigations are ongoing. Meanwhile, preparations are underway for the upcoming launch of the GSLV F-16, which will carry the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar Satellite, a $1.5 billion project. ISRO Chairman V. Narayanan noted a drop in chamber pressure as a key observation during the analysis.
Published: May 24 2025, 10 pmeznews.inNEW DELHI: Amid a rise in COVID-19 cases in some countries, most reported cases in India are mild and under home care, according to official sources.

Published: May 24 2025, 10 pmeznews.inThe recent endorsement of Mysore Sandal Soap by actress Tamannaah Bhatia has sparked criticism, highlighting a disconnect between the brand's marketing strategy and its cultural roots. The Karnataka Soaps and Detergents Limited (KSDL) invested Rs 6.2 crore in this "pan-India" approach, aiming to modernize its image, yet this move appears misguided. The outrage stems not from Tamannaah's involvement but from the perceived neglect of local pride and the brand's authentic connection with its consumers. Many Kannada actors would have supported the brand for free, reflecting regional loyalty. This marketing misstep also perpetuates outdated beauty standards, contrasting with successful campaigns like Dove's that celebrate real people. Mysore Sandal Soap, a staple for many in Karnataka, thrives on relatability, not aspirational marketing. Ultimately, KSDL's strategy risks alienating its core audience, undermining the brand's legacy rooted in local pride and community connection.
