Crime Branch Kashmir Files Chargesheet Against Two in Fake J&K Bank Job Scam

by
Fraud Job

The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Crime Branch Kashmir submitted a chargesheet in case FIR No. 50/2023 under Sections 420, 468, 471, and 120-B of the RPC before the Court of Passenger Tax, Sub-Registrar Srinagar.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel

The chargesheet has been filed against two accused individuals, Mohd Ashraf Sheikh, son of Abdul Majeed Sheikh, resident of Pahloo Kulgam, and Aijaz-ul-Rehman Manroo, son of Abdul Rehman Manroo, resident of Bulbul Bagh, Barzulla, Srinagar.

The case stems from a written complaint alleging that the accused persons deceived the complainants on the false promise of securing jobs in J&K Bank.

In the process, they allegedly collected huge sums from the victims. Acting on the complaint, a probe was initiated at Police Station Economic Offences Wing (Crime Branch Kashmir).

During the probe, it surfaced that the accused individuals had provided fake and forged appointment orders to the complainants, thereby dishonestly inducing them to part with their money. The investigation established the involvement of both accused in orchestrating the fraudulent act.

Based on the evidence gathered, including documentary proof, statements of witnesses, and forensic examination, EOW (Crime Branch Kashmir) has concluded that the accused have committed offences punishable under the referenced sections of the RPC. Consequently, the chargesheet has been submitted before the competent court for judicial determination.

The Economic Offences Wing reiterates its commitment to combating financial frauds and safeguarding the interests of the public by ensuring that offenders are brought to justice.

India Pushes AI Adoption in Power Sector to Cut Consumer Bills and Boost Energy Efficiency

by
KPDCL to shut multiple 33KV lines

India aims to lower consumer power bills and improve energy utilisation through wider adoption of artificial intelligence across distribution networks, said Shashank Misra, Joint Secretary at the Ministry of Power.

Speaking to ANI, on the sidelines of the National Conference on the Use of AI/ML in the Power Distribution Sector in the national capital, Misra said that the government is pushing AI tools to help distributors detect theft-prone zones more accurately and respond faster.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel

“The aim is to reduce the bill of consumers and better utilise the energy,” he said, highlighting the daily usage and earth leakages inside the house.

Misra said AI-driven analytics will enable discoms to identify abnormal consumption patterns, target field inspections, and minimise technical and commercial losses, which remain a major cost burden for utilities and consumers.

He added that the ministry is exploring the use of large language models, including GPT-based systems, to support decision-making, automate workflows and strengthen real-time monitoring across the distribution sector.

“These technologies will allow us to act quicker and improve overall efficiency,” Misra said.

Speaking at the same event yesterday, energy experts highlighted that India is uniquely positioned to capitalise on its already surplus power capacity, as the rapid expansion of data centres is driving unprecedented energy demand.

According to the experts, the country has the potential to emerge as a global leader by treating electricity as a tradable commodity and demonstrating its capability to meet growing domestic and international energy needs.

Earlier this October, the government released a draft of the Electricity (Amendment) Bill, 2025, aimed at making Indian industry and logistics more competitive by rationalising electricity costs and reducing hidden cross-subsidies.

The Government has stated that the bill promotes cost-reflective tariffs to ensure the sector’s financial viability, while fully protecting subsidised tariffs for farmers and low-income households.

It aims to create a future-ready electricity sector that delivers reliable, affordable, and high-quality power to every consumer: farmers and households, to shops and industries.

The Bill moves away from the old monopoly supply model and encourages a performance-driven approach, where both public and private utilities compete fairly to improve consumer service. It promotes better use of the existing electricity network with transparency and accountability so that citizens get more value for every rupee spent. (ANI)
