PATNA, Jan 16: Bihar residents who possess a firearm licence are requested to turn it in to the local police station or the appropriate authorities if the licence was obtained from another state and verification is still pending. In a circular to this effect, the state home department stated that the verification had to be completed by February 15. The agency has also called for rigorous compliance with a standard operating procedure for verification of arms permits. According to the statement, the action is intended to stop the influx of illicit weapons from Jammu & Kashmir, Nagaland, and other northeastern states. Additionally, the home department has requested that district judges (DMs) firmly uphold the state's total prohibition against celebratory gunfire.“All DMs must ensure that the verification of weapon licences issued from other states must be completed by February 15 by the firearm owners. According to a letter from the home department, "Firearm owners whose licences have not been verified must deposit their weapons to the nearest police station or the competent authority until the verification is completed by February 15." It stated that these permits will be deemed unlawful if they are not validated by February 15 and that the owners will face appropriate legal action. The goal of adopting the standard operating procedure is to identify those having illicit guns, said a senior official of the home department on condition of anonymity.580 persons in the state have (arms) licences from Jammu and Kashmir, Nagaland, and other northeastern states, according to earlier records. Of them, 288 do not have unique identifying numbers (UINs) and 174 do. The letter stated, "The actual number of such weapons will be much higher, even though 98 arms holders have applied for UIN numbers." The official stated that any arms licence issued by the relevant authorities must have the UIN written on it by law under the Arms Rules, 2016, and that any permit that does not have UIN is void. “It must be understood that UIN is to be issued to a licensee. He said there are rumours that many Bihari residents are obtaining weapons licences illegally from other states and that some of them are participating in organised crime within the state. In addition, the home department has requested that DMs make sure that the total prohibition against celebratory firing is strictly adhered to. "Celebration gunfire has been observed during weddings and other events, and movies or pictures are created and shared on social media. The law does not allow for this. All DMs are instructed to pursue legal action against offenders in the event of non-compliance," the letter stated.

Announcing delays is what the captain is seen doing in the video. The passenger approaches the skipper and gives him a face slap while sporting a yellow jacket.Immediately, a flight attendant who was standing next to the captain steps in to help him and tries to diffuse the situation by standing in front of him. Then, as confusion grows throughout the compartment, another man pulls the passenger from behind. The man causing the disturbance appears to be heading back to his seat while the flight attendant can be heard yelling, "You can't do this; you can't do this." The security agency announced that an inquiry has been opened into the widely shared video, which showed a passenger punching IndiGo pilot Anup Kumar during a delayed flight (6E-2175) from Delhi to Goa because of fog.

JAMMU: The Army has stated that there has been no ceasefire violation (CFV) and that the purported gunfire that occurred in the early hours of Sunday morning along the border in the Khour area of the Akhnoor sector was a speculative exchange of fire. "There are a number of media outlets carrying the story of the CFV on the Line of Control (LoC) in the Akhnoor region. It is made clear that there hasn't been any CFV," a defence spokesperson stated. He clarified that the firefight is merely hypothetical because of the fog and low vision, which is typical behaviour on forward positions. "The Sector where speculative firing has taken place is primarily the International Border sector and not LoC," said the spokesperson.

NEW DELHI: While the two sides discussed a "mutually workable solution" to let the Indian military installations in the island nation to continue operating, Maldivian President Mohamed Muizzu on Sunday demanded that India remove its military forces from his country by March 15. At the India-Maldives high-level core group's inaugural meeting in Male, the topic was covered in great detail. After meeting on the fringes of the COP28 summit in Dubai last month, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Muizzu of the Maldives agreed to form the core group on the controversial issue. The Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement that "both sides also held discussions on finding a mutually agreeable solution to enable continued operation of Indian aviation platforms that provide humanitarian and medvac services to the people of Maldives." At a press conference in Male, Muizzu requested that the Maldivian delegation notify Indian authorities in the core group meeting that the troops must be removed by March 15. Abdulla Nazim Ibrahim is the principal secretary to the president of the Maldives. Indian soldiers are not permitted to remain in the Maldives. According to Ibrahim, this administration's and President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu's policies are as follows. "During the meeting, both sides held discussions on wide-ranging issues related to bilateral cooperation towards identifying steps to enhance the partnership, including expediting the implementation of ongoing development cooperation projects," the MEA stated in a statement. "It was agreed to hold the next meeting of the high-level core group in India on a mutually convenient date," stated the statement. Currently, over ninety Indian employees are stationed in the Maldives, mostly to maintain and operate an aircraft and two helicopters. High Commissioner Munu Mahawar led the Indian delegation at the meeting, along with several other diplomats from the Indian mission.The Maldivian delegation included a number of officials, including Ibrahim Shaheeb, the high commissioner to India for the Maldives, and Ali Naseer Mohamed, the ambassador at large in the foreign ministry. The relationship between India and the Maldives saw some strain when Muizzu, who is viewed as a pro-Chinese politician, insisted that he would fulfil his election pledge to remove Indian military personnel from his nation after taking office. One of India's most important maritime neighbours in the Indian Ocean region is the Maldives, and during the previous administration in Male, bilateral relations generally increased, particularly in the fields of security and defence. On November 17, Muizzu took the oath of office as the president of the Maldives.He demanded that Indian military soldiers leave the Maldives one day after assuming the position of top dog. Muizzu has insisted that he will fulfil his pledge to remove Indian military soldiers from his nation at the polls. On Saturday, the president of the Maldives returned from a six-day trip to China. Both sides signed many agreements to deepen their relations during the visit. When Muizzu spoke to the media in Male after his return, he subtly poked fun at India. "We may be small, but that doesn't give you the licence to bully us," he responded. In order to lessen the nation's reliance on India, he also revealed intentions to secure imports of necessary food items, medications, and consumables from other nations.Three deputy ministers in Muizzu's ministry made disparaging remarks about Prime Minister Narendra Modi last week, which sparked a huge outcry. The Maldivian government suspended Abdulla Mahzoom Majid, Mariyam Shiuna, and Malsha Shareef, deputy ministers in the youth ministry, when India brought up the matter with Male. The three deputy ministers implied that Modi was attempting to position the Union Territory as a substitute for the Maldives as a tourism destination by making derogatory remarks about him on 'X' after his visit to Lakshadweep.
