Rajasthan health department officials told PTI that seven people died in the crash while more than 35 were injured.
Police said there are chances that some people could not get out of their vehicles and got burnt inside. The situation will become clear once all the vehicles are thoroughly checked, they said.
Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma and Health Minister Gajendra Singh Khimsar rushed to the SMS Hospital, where the injured were admitted. Sharma spoke to administration officials and doctors and issued directions to ensure proper treatment was facilitated. He also visited the accident site and spoke to police officials.
In a post in Hindi on X, the chief minister said, "Deeply saddened to hear the news of casualties in the gas tanker fire incident on the Jaipur-Ajmer National Highway. As soon as the information about the incident came, I went to the SMS Hospital and directed the doctors there to provide immediate necessary medical facilities and take proper care of the injured."
Jaipur Police Commissioner Biju George Joseph and other officials of the department were at the spot on the highway.
Khimsar told reporters that nearly half of the injured brought to the hospital were in very critical condition.
"All doctors, resident doctors and nursing staff were called in to manage the situation. Another ward has been opened so that patients can be accommodated. Some people got primary treatment in nearby hospitals," he said.
The health minister said a 'green corridor' has been set up from the accident site to the SMS hospital.
An official said a sleeper bus headed for Jaipur from Rajsamand was behind the gas tanker when the accident occurred. Efforts were underway to find the details about the passengers on board.
The burnt vehicles are being removed from the highway so that traffic movement can be resumed.
CM Sharma, Governor Haribhau Bagade, and former chief minister Ashok Gehlot expressed their condolences for the loss of lives in the crash.
The station house officer of Bhankrota Manish Gupta said it was difficult to bring the fire under control initially.
"Fire brigade teams initially were unable to reach the vehicles that were burning. There are three petrol pumps in the area but fortunately, they are safe," he added.
More than 25 ambulances were used to shift the victims to the hospital.
A nearly 300-metre busy stretch of the highway was affected by the accident, leading to a long queue of vehicles.
Police officials said the fire engulfed some establishments along the highway but details of the actual losses are not yet clear.
The school van driver told PTI that the flames were visible from a kilometre away and there was panic and chaos on the highway.
"As I got closer to the spot, I saw people running in haste and shouting for help. I saw a man engulfed in flames. It was a frightening scene. Fire brigades and ambulances were there but it was difficult for them to reach the spot initially," he said.
A team from the district administration is present at the hospital to help the family members of the victims.
The Jaipur Police has issued the helpline numbers 9166347551, 8764688431 and 7300363636 for people to get in touch for inquiries or relevant information.

Several Delhi schools, including those in Dwarka, received bomb-threat emails, prompting search operations by security teams. No suspicious items were found, and some schools shifted to online classes following the threats.

Gen Rawat death: Parliament panel report says ‘human error’ caused December 8 chopper crash

The tabulated data in the report also contained a column titled &ldquo;reason&rdquo; that specified the cause of the accidents in this period, against the aircraft type and date and accident.

The country&rsquo;s first Chief of Defence Staff Gen Bipin Rawat died in a Mi-17 V5 helicopter crash on December 8, 2021, and a parliamentary panel report has said the reason behind the accident which occurred that day was &ldquo;human error&rdquo;.
Gen Rawat, his wife Madhulika Rawat, and many other armed forces personnel had died after the military helicopter they were travelling in crashed near Coonoor in Tamil Nadu.
The accident was widely reported in the media. In the report tabled in Parliament on Tuesday, the Standing Committee on Defence shared the data on the number of Indian Air Force aircraft crashes that took place during the 13th Defence Plan period.
The total number of crashes stood at 34, including nine IAF aircraft accidents that took place in 2021-22 and 11 in 2018-19.

Supreme Court Stresses Alimony Should Not Be Used for Extortion

The Supreme Court emphasized that alimony should provide a reasonable standard of living for women, not equalize wealth between ex-spouses. It highlighted the misuse of laws as tools for harassment, and addressed financial demands in divorce settlements, ruling against indefinite support.

The court highlighted the importance of a balanced approach, considering not just the income of the husband, but also the wife&rsquo;s income, reasonable needs, and residential rights.

The Supreme Court on Thursday issued a crucial reminder that laws designed to protect women should not be misused to harass or extort husbands.
The court emphasized that alimony is meant to provide the dependent spouse with a reasonable standard of living, not to equalize financial disparities between former partners.
The judgment came in the context of a high-profile case involving tech professional Atul Subhas, who claimed that his estranged wife and her family had demanded a monthly maintenance of Rs 2 lakh, later increasing it to Rs 3 crore annually.
A bench of Justices BV Nagarathna and Pankaj Mitha, while dissolving the marriage on the grounds of irretrievable breakdown, directed the husband to pay Rs 12 crore as a full and final alimony settlement. The court stressed that maintenance should not be used as a tool for coercion or exploitation.
"The women need to be careful about the fact that these strict provisions of law in their hands are beneficial legislation for their welfare and not means to chastise, threaten, domineer or extort from their husbands," the bench remarked.
The wife had claimed her husband&rsquo;s net worth exceeded Rs 5,000 crore, with businesses and properties in both the US and India, and that he had paid his first wife at least Rs 500 crore during their separation, excluding a house in Virginia.
The court highlighted the importance of a balanced approach, considering not just the income of the husband, but also the wife&rsquo;s income, reasonable needs, and residential rights.
"We have serious reservations with the tendency of parties seeking maintenance or alimony as an equalisation of wealth with the other party. It is often seen that parties in their application for maintenance or alimony highlight the assets, status and income of their spouse, and then ask for an amount that can equal their wealth to that of the spouse," the court stated.
The bench further asked, "We wonder, would the wife be willing to seek equalisation of wealth with the husband if due to some unfortunate events post-separation, he has been rendered a pauper?"
The court also addressed concerns over the misuse of criminal complaints, noting instances where wives and their families use such complaints as leverage to pressure husbands and their families for financial demands.
The Supreme Court quashed the criminal cases filed by the wife against her estranged husband, sending a clear message about the need for fair and just use of legal provisions.

Based on the Minister's complaint, a case was registered against BJP leader under sections 75 (sexual harassment) and 79 (word, gesture or act intended to insult the modesty of a woman) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.

There was a high drama on the last day of the winter session of the Karnataka legislature here on Thursday, with Woman and Child Development Minister Laxmi Hebbalkar accusing C T Ravi of using a derogatory word against her in the Legislative Council. Ravi earlier served as National General Secretary of BJP.
When reporters asked her about the incident outside the House, Hebbalkar merely said, &ldquo;I&rsquo;m pained&hellip;.&rdquo; Earlier, claiming to be supporters of Hebbalkar a group of people from Belagavi angrily approached Ravi within the Suvarna Vidhana Soudha premises here, but were stopped by the security staff. Some even staged a protest against Ravi outside, and they were whisked away by the police.
According to Congress leaders, Ravi allegedly used the derogatory word several times against Hebbalkar during an altercation between them, after the House was adjourned shortly earlier in the day, by Chairman Horatti, following an uproar over Union Home Minister Amit Shah&rsquo;s remarks on B R Ambedkar.
Speaking to reporters, Congress MLC Yathindra Siddaramaiah said the incident happened after the Chairman adjourned the House, and that he was standing two rows behind Hebbalkar at that time.
There was a war of words between Hebbalkar and Ravi, and as she made certain comments against him, he used derogatory words against her, he said. &ldquo;I initially couldn&rsquo;t believe that an MLC could use such a word and waited for confirmation. He could be heard using that word and walking out. Later Hebbalkar herself came and told a few of us about it, with pain.&rdquo; &ldquo;We have complained to the Chairman and sought his (Ravi) expulsion. The Chairman has assured action after verifying audio and video,&rdquo; Yathindra, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah&rsquo;s son, said.
Meanwhile, responding to a question on the allegation Ravi said, &ldquo;Her allegations are false, let the audio and videos get verified, I will speak after that. I won&rsquo;t say anything now. This is not the right time to answer this question. I&rsquo;m not someone who will abuse someone personally. I have not abused her, I don&rsquo;t know why she felt that way.&rdquo; &ldquo;I have not said anything to her&hellip;.I have not made any personal comments against her, as she is claiming,&rdquo; he added.
Later, Ravi staged a protest along with some of his BJP colleagues alleging that there was an attempt to attack him in the Suvarna Vidhana Soudha, based on a false allegation, and termed it as &ldquo;goonda raj&rdquo;.

&ldquo;If I have used such derogatory words, show it&hellip;.there should be a police investigation, Laxmi Hebbalkar is making false allegations, on her instigation, people had come shouting slogans in favour of her and against me,&rdquo; he said.
Speaking to reporters, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said, &ldquo;He (Ravi) used a filthier word to Laxmi Hebbalkar, who is a Minister in my cabinet, and it amounts to a criminal offence,&rdquo; he said.
When told that Ravi has denied allegations, the CM said, &ldquo;Everyone is saying that he used the word ten times, I don&rsquo;t know, I was not there in the Council. Council members came and told me Ravi had used a filthy word. Laxmi Hebbalkar is pained, it is in a way sexual harassment against her.&rdquo; After Hebbalkar approached the Chairman with a complaint, Horatti asked Council secretariat staff to check the video and audio related to the incident.
However, according to official sources, the recording team informed him that they had stopped recording when the incident happened, as the House was adjourned.
The Chairman later, when the Council proceedings resumed, said he heard Hebbalkar and Congress MLCs Umashree, Balkis Banu, Yathindra Siddaramaiah and Nagaraj Yadav, who gave their statements accusing Ravi of using a derogatory word, in his chamber.
He said, later, Ravi also met him and said that he had not used any derogatory word as being alleged, but claimed he only told her that she was &ldquo;frustrated&rdquo;.
Detailing about the proceedings, the Chairman, before adjourning the House &lsquo;sine die&rsquo; said, &ldquo;In my long political career, I have never come across such an incident where derogatory terms have been used inside the house by the members. I believe that no woman will falsely complain publicly alleging derogatory words were used against her. However, I request the complainant and the person who was accused to introspect. Being elected representatives we need to be the role models in the society as people look up to us.&rdquo;

Passengers Vandalize Antyodaya Express at Basti Station Over Locked Doors

The Railway Protection Force (RPF) in Basti has registered an FIR under Section 145 of the Railway Act against unidentified individuals for their role in the vandalism.

In a dramatic incident late Tuesday night, enraged passengers waiting to board the Mumbai-bound Antyodaya Express (15101) at Basti railway station resorted to vandalism after finding the coach doors locked. Videos of the incident, which have gone viral on social media, capture the chaos as one individual used a heavy stone to smash the glass panel of the train&rsquo;s entry door, while others dismantled the iron grill of a window to climb into the coach.

The Railway Protection Force (RPF) in Basti has registered an FIR under Section 145 of the Railway Act against unidentified individuals for their role in the vandalism.
According to railway officials, the train was severely overcrowded, prompting passengers already inside to bolt the doors from within to prevent more people from boarding. This infuriated those waiting at the station, leading to a violent outburst. "A youth shattered the glass of the entry door, and others broke the iron grill of a window to gain access," an official source said.
The incident occurred around 10:30 p.m. and was followed by another video surfacing from Mankapur railway station later that night. The footage shows an RPF constable helping an elderly woman board the overcrowded train, highlighting the chaos passengers faced.
Chandra Mohan Mishra, Senior Divisional Security Commissioner of Northeastern Railway, confirmed that authorities have CCTV footage of the vandalism and are working to identify the perpetrators. "Our teams are trying to track down those involved," he said.
Despite the severity of the incident, no arrests have been made so far.
The Antyodaya Express, which runs between Chhapra and Mumbai, has been a lifeline for many passengers travelling long distances, but the incident underscores the challenges posed by overcrowded trains.
As the investigation continues, railway authorities will likely face questions about overcrowding and safety measures to prevent such incidents in the future.

A revised list of boat fares is being prepared to maintain transparency and it will be prominently displayed at all ghats and parking areas, according to ADM Mela.

Maha Kumbh 2025: Prayagraj Mela administration hikes boat fare by 50 pc

A revised list of boat fares is being prepared to maintain transparency and it will be prominently displayed at all ghats and parking areas, according to ADM Mela.

Ahead of the Maha Kumbh in January, the Kumbh Mela Administration has approved an increase in the fares of boatmen by 50 per cent.
According to Additional District Magistrate Mahakumbh Vivek Chaturvedi, this decision comes after prolonged demands from the boatmen and a fruitful discussion between the Prayagraj District Boatmen Association and the Mela administration.
Welcoming the move, Pappu Lal Nishad, President of the Prayagraj District Boatmen Association said that boat fares had remained unchanged for years despite rising inflation.
He praised the administration&rsquo;s decision as a significant step in favour of the boatmen&rsquo;s welfare.
Following the fare hike for boats, strict measures will be implemented to ensure that devotees are not overcharged.
A revised list of boat fares is being prepared to maintain transparency and it will be prominently displayed at all ghats and parking areas, according to ADM Mela.
Meanwhile, the administration has also restricted the movement of vehicles for devotees&rsquo; safety. While motorboats remain prohibited, traditional boats can operate even on major bathing festival days.
Sub Divisional Magistrate Mahakumbh Abhinav Pathak stated that decisions regarding boat operations during festivals will be based on weather and crowd conditions.
&ldquo;Currently, 1,455 boats are in operation at Sangam, but this number is expected to exceed 4,000 during Mahakumbh as boats from neighbouring districts arrive.
All boats will undergo safety inspections before being issued licenses, and life jackets will be provided to boatmen. Additionally, every boatman will receive insurance coverage of ₹2 lakh,&rdquo; he said.

"There is no reason for the collection of the user or toll fee to continue. We hold that the agreement (for toll collection) is invalid,” the bench said.

DND flyway to remain toll-free, says Supreme Court

"There is no reason for the collection of the user or toll fee to continue. We hold that the agreement (for toll collection) is invalid,&rdquo; the bench said.

The Supreme Court on Friday ruled that the Delhi-Noida-Direct (DND) flyway will be toll-free as it dismissed a plea by a private firm challenging the 2016 decision of the Allahabad High Court order asking it to stop collecting tolls from commuters.
The decision will benefit lakhs of people who commute daily on the flyway.
A bench of Justices Surya Kant and Ujjal Bhuyan held that awarding a contract to private firm Noida Toll Bridge Company Ltd (NTBCL) to collect tolls from commuters plying on the DND flyway was unjust, unfair and arbitrary.
"There is no reason for the collection of the user or toll fee to continue. We hold that the agreement (for toll collection) is invalid,&rdquo; the bench said.
It pulled up the NOIDA authority for delegating toll collection to private firm NTBCL, which did not have any prior experience and said it had resulted in unjust enrichment.&nbsp;
The bench said NOIDA overstepped its authority by delegating the powers to NTBCL to collect or levy fees and it has led the general public to part with hundreds of crores of rupees.
The high court, in October 2016, had ruled that there would be no toll collected henceforth from those using the 9.2 km-long, eight-lane Delhi-Noida Direct flyway. The order was passed as the high court allowed a PIL by the Federation of Noida Residents' Welfare Association.
The PIL, filed in 2012, had challenged the "levy and collection of toll in the name of user fee by the Noida Toll Bridge Company".
In an over 100-page judgment, the high court had held, "the user fee which is being levied/realised is not supported by the legal provisions relied upon by the Concessionaire (Noida Toll Bridge Company), Infrastructure Leasing and Financial Services (promoter and developer of the project) and the Noida Authority."
It had said the "right to levy and collect user fee from the commuters as conferred upon the Concessionaire under the concession agreement suffers from excessive delegation and is contrary to the provisions of the UP Industrial Development Act".

The motion was adopted with a voice vote to nominate 12 members of the Rajya Sabha to the joint committee on simultaneous polls.
The Chairman then made his concluding remarks, saying this session's productivity stood at a mere 40.03 per cent with just 43 hours and 27 minutes of effective functioning.
"As Parliamentarians, we are drawing severe criticism from the people of India and rightfully so. These persistent disruptions are steadily eroding public trust in our democratic institutions," he noted.
"It is time to choose between meaningful debate and destructive disruptions," he said before adjourning the House sine die.&nbsp;
