We need to make necessary reforms, aligned with NEP 2020, to develop a conducive environment where students acquire skills and values to deal with the challenges of the real world, the Lieutenant Governor added.

NOIDA-Uttar Pradesh: YouTuber Elvish Yadav and the champion of Bigg Boss OTT, has been remanded to judicial custody for a period of 14 days in connection with a startling case involving the illicit use of snake venom at rave gatherings. Yadav’s detention followed extensive interrogation by the Noida Police regarding a raid carried out in November 2023. An FIR has been lodged at Sector 49 Noida police station against six persons, including Elvish Yadav, under the Wildlife Protection Act 1972 and section 120B of the IPC for criminal conspiracy.

The Wildlife Protection Act of 1972, designed to safeguard India’s wildlife and their habitats, prohibits activities such as hunting, poaching, and illegal trading of protected wildlife species and their parts. Additionally, IPC Section 120B outlines penalties for criminal conspiracy, applicable in cases where there’s evidence of organized plans to violate wildlife protection laws.

The investigation unfolded following a raid on November 3rd, 2023, when Noida Police uncovered a rave party at a banquet hall in Sector 51, where snake venom was allegedly being used as a recreational substance. Among the five individuals arrested were four snake charmers, and the authorities seized nine snakes along with 20 ml of snake venom. Disturbingly, all nine snakes had their venom glands surgically extracted.

Further probes linked Elvish Yadav to the event, with suspicions that he may have played a role in organizing the party and supplying the snake venom. There were also allegations of Yadav incorporating snakes and their venom into his YouTube content, potentially violating wildlife protection laws.

Elvish Yadav vehemently refutes these charges, dismissing them as baseless and false. Despite his denials, forensic evidence confirming the presence of snake venom at the party location has strengthened the case against him.

The case has garnered significant attention from animal rights activists, including Maneka Gandhi, who have demanded swift action against Yadav. People For Animals (PFA), an animal rights organization, has filed additional complaints against Yadav, accusing him of making threats subsequent to the raid.

This incident raises concerns about the accountability of social media influencers like Yadav and underscores the dangers of promoting harmful practices. It also highlights the imperative to protect wildlife from exploitation and misuse.

As the case progresses, with Yadav remaining in judicial custody, the court will assess the extent of his involvement in this troubling affair.

Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh – December 30, 2023: The holy city of Ayodhya, steeped in ancient tales and religious fervor, witnessed a monumental takeoff on December 30th, 2023, with the inauguration of the much-anticipated Maharishi Valmiki International Airport. Prime Minister Narendra Modi graced the occasion, marking a new chapter in the city’s journey towards becoming a premier pilgrimage and tourist destination.

Christened after the revered poet-sage who immortalized the epic Ramayana, the Ayodhya airport is more than just a transportation hub. It is a testament to cultural heritage, woven into the very fabric of its design. The terminal building echoes the architectural style of the upcoming Ram Mandir, with seven cascading peaks symbolizing the seven heavens described in the epic. Murals and paintings depicting scenes from the Ramayana adorn the interiors, immersing passengers in the city’s vibrant lore.

Beyond aesthetics, the Ayodhya airport boasts state-of-the-art technology and infrastructure. Spread over 6,500 square meters, the terminal can handle 10 lakh passengers annually. Advanced baggage handling systems, comfortable lounges, and duty-free shops cater to a seamless travel experience. Sustainability features like rainwater harvesting, solar power, and LED lighting underscore the airport’s commitment to responsible development.

The Ayodhya airport’s arrival signifies a turning point for Ayodhya. It will bridge the gap between the city and the rest of India, opening doors for increased tourism, economic growth, and job creation. Already, airlines like IndiGo and Air India Express have announced flights connecting Ayodhya with major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Ahmedabad, paving the way for easier access to the sacred city.

Beyond pilgrimage, the Ayodhya airport presents exciting prospects for cultural exchange and religious tourism. Ayodhya’s rich tapestry of temples, ancient sites, and vibrant festivals now beckon visitors from across the globe. The city’s artistic traditions, culinary delights, and natural beauty await exploration, promising a holistic cultural experience.

However, challenges remain. Ensuring smooth integration of the Ayodhya airport into the existing infrastructure, managing the potential surge in tourist influx, and preserving the city’s spiritual essence are crucial considerations. Striking a balance between development and cultural preservation will be key to Ayodhya’s sustainable growth.

The maiden flight from Ayodhya to Delhi, scheduled for January 6th, 2024, symbolizes not just a physical journey but a cultural and spiritual pilgrimage. As the wheels of the plane lift off from the sacred soil, they carry the hopes and aspirations of a city poised to soar to new heights. The Maharishi Valmiki International Airport stands as a beacon of hope, promising to connect Ayodhya not just to the Indian skies but to the hearts of millions seeking faith, solace, and the timeless magic of the Ramayana.

The inauguration of the Maharishi Valmiki International Airport marks a significant milestone not just for Ayodhya but for the entire nation. As the city takes flight, its wings carry the dreams of millions, soaring towards a future woven with faith, prosperity, and the enduring legacy of the Ramayana.
