Delivery Boy Killed in Bengaluru Road Rage; Kalaripayattu Instructor and Woman Arrested.

BENGALURU: A man and a woman have been arrested for allegedly killing a 24-year-old delivery boy in a road rage incident at Sri Rama Layout in JP Nagar 7th Phase on the night of October 25.

The deceased, identified as Darshan N, a resident of Gundappa Layout in Uttarahalli, was riding a two-wheeler with his friend G. Varun, also a delivery boy, who is currently undergoing treatment at a hospital.

Police arrested Manoj Kumar (36), a kalaripayattu instructor and resident of Arakere, and Aarathi Sharma (30), also from Arakere, on Tuesday. Manoj runs a kalaripayattu academy on Bannerghatta Road. Both have been remanded to judicial custody. The exact nature of their relationship is yet to be established.

The fatal incident occurred between 11:30 pm and 11:35 pm on Saturday, when Darshan’s bike allegedly brushed against the side mirror of the accused’s car. Enraged, the accused reversed their vehicle and chased the two-wheeler for nearly two kilometres before ramming it from behind, throwing both riders onto the road. Darshan died on the spot, while Varun sustained severe injuries.

Initially, the JP Nagar Traffic Police registered a case of road accident. However, after reviewing CCTV footage, they discovered that the act was intentional. The footage showed Darshan’s bike damaging the car’s right mirror near Nataraja Layout on South City Road.

Investigators revealed that Manoj fled the scene immediately after the crash but later returned wearing a mask to collect broken parts of his car. The case was subsequently transferred to the Puttenahalli Police for further investigation.

Darshan’s sister, N. Bhavya, said her brother had only started working as a delivery boy a week earlier. “Initially, we thought it was just an accident. Later, the police found out the real reason,” she said.

DCP (South) Lokesh Jagalasar confirmed, “Based on the CCTV footage, it was found that the car driver had deliberately hit the bike after his vehicle’s mirror was damaged.”

In a follow-up to the tragic incident in which a 13-year-old girl allegedly jumped from the eighth floor of a building in E-Sector, Naharlagun, new details have emerged. The minor, originally from Longding district, had been living under the care of her caretaker-cum-employer, a member of the police department, since her kindergarten days and was reportedly studying in Class 9.

Child Welfare Committee (CWC) Chairperson Taba Zim informed that the committee was promptly notified by the police and has recorded statements from the household members with whom the girl had been residing. As per their statements, the building from which she leapt was located about 50 to 200 metres away from their home.

At around 5:30 a.m. on the day of the incident, the girl reportedly went to a nearby building and climbed to the eighth floor. A woman who was exercising nearby noticed her and attempted to intervene, but the girl allegedly bit her hand and jumped despite efforts to dissuade her, Zim said.

Arunachal Pradesh State Commission for Protection of Child Rights (APCPCR) Chairperson Ratan Anya stated that the commission is closely monitoring the case.

“She had no father and came from a poor background. It appears she may have been employed in exchange for education. We are trying to trace how she was brought to Naharlagun. A team has been sent to Longding, and the findings will be shared with the police,” she said.

According to the Naharlagun Police, the case remains in its initial stage of investigation. Authorities are awaiting the call detail records (CDR) of a common phone used in the household as well as the post-mortem report. Police sources added that no external injuries were found on the body.

Interacting with her classmates, investigators learned that the deceased was a regular and bright student who performed well in her studies.

Superintendent of Police (SP) Nyelam Nega stated that the case has been registered as an unnatural death to determine the cause of the su***de.

“No su***de note was found during the search,” the SP confirmed.

Both the CWC and APCPCR have assured that they are working in close coordination with the police to ensure a fair and thorough investigation into the incident.

CM Pema Khandu Inaugurates Arunachal Pradesh Reverse Buyer-Seller Meet 2025, Showcases State’s Export and Investment Potential

Itanagar, Oct 30:
Chief Minister Pema Khandu today inaugurated the two-day Arunachal Pradesh Reverse Buyer-Seller Meet (RBSM) 2025 in Itanagar, marking a major step toward positioning the state as a hub for trade, investment, and export.

Organized by the Indian Chamber of Commerce (ICC) in collaboration with the Department of Trade and Commerce, Government of Arunachal Pradesh, the event aims to connect local producers, exporters, investors, and domestic and international buyers to explore new business and market opportunities.

In his inaugural address, Khandu lauded the ICC—celebrating its centenary year—for partnering with the state government to promote Arunachal Pradesh as a growing center for organic, natural, and value-based products.

“This Meet is not just a trade event; it is a platform of possibilities connecting our farmers, artisans, and entrepreneurs with domestic and global markets,” the Chief Minister said.

Highlighting the state’s unique advantages, Khandu noted that Arunachal Pradesh’s rich biodiversity, favorable agro-climatic conditions, and traditional craftsmanship offer vast export potential in products such as kiwi, mandarin oranges, large cardamom, ginger, and pineapple. He reaffirmed the government’s vision to transform the state from a production-based to an export-oriented economy.

The Chief Minister outlined several initiatives undertaken in collaboration with national agencies like APEDA to identify exportable products, upgrade agri-infrastructure, and enhance global branding. He credited the rapid improvement in road, rail, air, and digital connectivity over the past decade for creating new export pathways, thanking Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government for its continued support.

Citing success stories, Khandu mentioned the International Conclave-cum-Buyer Seller Meet held in Tawang, which connected over 350 farmers and 50 FPOs with international buyers, and the MoU between the Arunachal Pradesh Agriculture Marketing Board (APAMB) and Lulu Hypermarket LLC, which enabled orange and pumpkin exports to Gulf countries.

He further highlighted partnerships with the ITBP and the Indian Army, which have helped strengthen the rural economy by institutionalizing markets for local produce.

On the industrial front, Khandu emphasized the newly introduced Industrial Development and Investment Policy 2025, which serves as a roadmap for sustainable growth through skill development, investment facilitation, and entrepreneurship promotion. He also noted incentives such as transport and interest subsidies and insurance support for resource-based industries.

Khandu added that the government has simplified Udyam registration for MSMEs and strengthened the role of District Industries Centres (DICs) to provide advisory, credit, and market linkage support, improving the ease of doing business in the state.

“Arunachal Pradesh is emerging as a crucial link between India’s domestic markets and global value chains,” Khandu said. “Sustainable trade and investment are not just about profit; they are about people, progress, and partnership.”

The Chief Minister extended gratitude to the Indian Chamber of Commerce, partner organizations, and stakeholders for their commitment and expressed confidence that RBSM 2025 will usher in a new era of economic opportunity and collaboration for Arunachal Pradesh.

Two Ma*****na Peddlers Arrested with 10.68 kg G***a in Major Anti-Drug Operation at Koronu

In a major breakthrough against the drug menace, the Anti-Drug Squad (ADS) Roing apprehended two peddlers and seized 10.68 kg of G***a from the 6 Kilo area of Koronu on October 30, 2025.

The operation was executed based on leads provided by another peddler who had been apprehended from Urban Colony, Roing, the previous night. The duo had been discreetly selling G***a in small pouches worth ₹200 each to local consumers, particularly in the Cheta area.

The arrested individuals have been identified as Shri Som Bahadur Limbu (29) and Shri Raju Jogi (31), both residents of Ambikapur village under Sadiya Sub-Division, Assam. They were intercepted while transporting the contraband towards Roing through a jungle route. ADS personnel had been tracking them for a considerable time after confirming their involvement in cross-border drug trafficking through the porous Balijan area.

Following due procedures under the NDPS Act, a case has been registered at Roing Police Station (C/No. 73/2025 U/S 20(b)ii(b) NDPS Act R/w Sec. 3(5) BNS).

The Lower Dibang Valley Police, particularly the ADS Roing, reiterated their commitment to eradicating all forms of narcotics — including he**in, co***ne, brown sugar, o***m, ma*****na, and synthetic drugs — from the district.

Authorities have urged the public to extend full cooperation to make the anti-drug campaign successful. Police teams are on continuous patrol, monitoring drug-related activities round the clock and taking swift action against anyone involved.

A stern warning has also been issued to o***m cultivators and ma*****na growers in Lower Dibang Valley, emphasizing that strict legal action will be taken against those engaged in such illegal practices. The police have appealed to all residents to refrain from cultivation and trade of narcotics for the safety and well-being of future generations.

Activists and Victim’s Family Demand 14-Day Police Custody for IAS Officer Talo Potom

Revised Report:
Former Pan Arunachal Joint Steering Committee Chairman Techi Puru, along with Tana Tamar and Sol Dodum—who were earlier detained under the Arunachal Pradesh Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act ( )—joined the family members of 19-year-old Gomchu Yekar in demanding that IAS officer Talo Potom be remanded to 14 days of police custody.

Yekar, who tragically died by su***de, had named Talo Potom and engineer Likwang Lowang in his su***de note.

Puru questioned why the former Itanagar Capital Region Deputy Commissioner was not summoned by the court earlier, particularly after reports surfaced in the media regarding the impersonation of a sub-magistrate.

It has been alleged that the IAS officer had recruited Yekar as a sub-magistrate to conduct night patrols at IG Park in Itanagar.

Yekar’s su***de note reportedly detailed intimate relations, manipulation, financial assurances, and threats. However, Potom has categorically denied any wrongdoing.
