n elderly farmer, who had recently sold his land Afor Rs 3.4 crore, was found murdered at his house in Chinhat some time on Friday night. The victim was identified as Gopi Kashyap (75) of Juggaur in Chinhat. One of his daughters, Ritu Kashyap of Barabanki, lodged a case in this connection. Ritu’s sisters Munni and Sunita are married. While Munni lives with her husband Munna in Juggaur, Sunita lives with her husband Ram Saran in Barabanki. As per reports, Ritu was staying with her father in Juggaur these days. Around 7 am, she went to serve tea to her father but found him dead with head injuries and strangulation marks around throat. A police team led by ACP Anoop Singh reached the scene soon after being informed. The police col- lected evidence from the scene and also pressed a sniffer to get a clue about the accused. The police took victim’s maternal grandsons Jai Singh and Shiv Singh in custody, suspecting their role in the murder. Preliminary investigation revealed that Gopi had sold his ancestral land to a man, who is a resident of Laulai, for Rs 3.4 crore. He had got an advance amount of Rs 40 lakh for the deal. However, his family members started demanding their share which led to a dispute. Ritu told the police that both Ram Saran and Munna used to fight for the money which her father had got after selling the land. The police suspected the role of an insider. “The victim had injuries in the back of the head besides stran- gulation marks around his neck. Gopi’s wife Shyama and his daughter Ritu were in the house while Gopi was sleeping in the outer room,” the police said. Meanwhile, a loader driver was found dead near a cottage owned by a Baba in Kakori on Saturday. Police said the deceased had no injury marks. The body was sent for autopsy to ascertain the cause of death. The deceased was identified as Chhote Lal of Chakperwa Mubarakpur village in the area. The body was recovered around 6:30 am on Saturday.   The car of a co-convener of the Bharatiya Janata Party was stolen from a school in Mohanlalganj on Friday night. Arunesh Awasthi of Mohanlalganj said he used to park the car inside a private school near his house. “On Friday evening, I had parked the car inside the school. On Saturday morning, it was found missing,” he told the police.

n unidentified burqa-clad man looted ornaments Aworth several lakh from a jeweller’s shop at the gun-point in broad daylight on Saturday. Anshu Soni aka Aryan Soni of Ram Aasrey ka Purwa locality has his shop at Geetapuri crossing in Gomtinagar Extension. Around 11:30 am, the burqa-clad man reached the shop when Soni’s employee Pradeep Rawat was all alone. Pradeep mistook him as a woman who asked him to show gold rings and ear- rings. All of a sudden, the man whipped out a pis- tol from the purse which he was carrying and held Pradeep at the gun-point. He asked Pradeep to keep the ornaments in the purse. He then tied the hands of Pradeep and fled the scene. He decamped with 12 rings, 10 gold chains, 10 lockets, 11 pairs of ear- rings and 24 jhumkas. In a CCTV footage, he was seen wearing snick- ers. Pradeep somehow freed himself and informed the neighbouring shopowners. Later, he called his employer who informed police. DCP, East, Sanjeev Suman said since the mis- creant was wearing a burqa, his face could not be seen and he was yet to be identified. However, he said the police would work out the case soon. “The miscreant had come prepared. He was car- rying the tape, a pistol and was disguised as a woman,” police said. They said the miscreant was aware of the topography of the area as he disappeared within seconds after committing the crime.  !" $' $&/ 0120304

he third wave is imminent, said an expert. We are heading towards achieving endemicity, said another. There are several such claims and assumptions made by eminent expertsT and doctors. However, the fact of the matter is that nobody has yet been able to fully understand the nature of the virus, which is why many doc- tors believe that it will take us at least anoth- er year, if not more, to draw concrete conclu- sions. Scientists worldwide are on the go. They are chasing the virus’ evolution and its mutants with a few winning streaks. But a silver lining in the dark clouds of what seems to be a never- ending pandemic is that the country might be entering an endemic stage. Dr HK Mahajan, Anaesthesiologist, Indian Spinal Injuries Centre, Vasant Kunj, tells you that as per the World Health Organisation’s Chief Scientist Dr Soumya Swaminathan, India is entering into an endemic stage. “This suggests that a population has learnt to live with a virus. There is a low or moderate level of transmission going on. There are no peaks or exponential growth like pandemic or epidem- ic,” he says. The high cases, he points out, occur where immunity is less, people are not vaccinated or not infected in the previous waves. However, as per the experts from National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM), a third wave is imminent and can hit the coun- try any time between September and October. “It will not be that severe, but paediatric cases will be more, though not backed up by any sci- entific evidence. In this case, we need to have paediatrics infrastructure, ICU wards and doctors and trained nurses to deal with chil- dren getting infected,” says Mahajan. If the stats are anything to go by, they sug- gest that the country will see cases anywhere between one lakh and five lakh a day. “NIDM has predicted three scenarios. One, the third wave may peak in October. Two, three lakh cases per day. Three, if more viru- lent variants emerge, it may peak in September with five lakh cases per day. Four, it could peak in late October with two lakh cases per day,” adds Mahajan. All these models, he says, are based on cal- culations and are basically for forecasting and making predictions to anticipate the dynam- ics of the pandemic. “How many cases, viru- lency, morbidity and morbidity trends will hap- pen are demonstrated based on mathematical models. In India, these are mostly done by experts from IIT Kanpur and IIT Hyderabad. They take clues from several warnings indicat- ing an imminent third wave, understand them and prepare for it,” explains Mahajan. Dr Shuchin Bajaj, Founder & Director, Ujala Cygnus Group of Hospitals, agrees with Mahajan and says that with the highest zero positivity rate and progressively increasing vac- cine coverage, it appears that India is heading for an endemic stage of the virus. “Kerala, which is seeing very high numbers is current- ly suffering from the third wave because of the low zero positivity rate, which is less than 40 per cent compared to about 70 per cent in the Northern part of the country. So, with the increased vaccination coverage, we are already administering about 50 lakh vaccines a day and we’re hoping that we will be doing about one crore vaccines per day to achieve our target of complete vaccination by the end of the year. We hope that the next wave, if it does come, will be like the British third wave, which even God forbid the next pandemic comes in,” says though with increased numbers, it had very low = Bajaj. hospitalisation rates as well as very low death But for that to happen, the vaccination drive rates,” says Bajaj. =9 also needs a booster dose. “Only 7.6 per cent However, Dr Akshay Budhraja, people, that is 10.4 crore people, have been fully Pulmonologist, Aakash Healthcare, Dwarka, vaccinated.
