 In a first for Indian Railways, an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) has been successfully tested inside a train coach.  The trial took place on Tuesday inside an air-conditioned coach of the Panchavati Express, which runs daily between Manmad in Nashik and Mumbai. This ATM facility is part of a joint effort by the Bhusawal division of Indian Railways and the Bank of Maharashtra. The ATM worked smoothly during the journey, with only minor interruptions when the train passed through the no-network zone between Igatpuri and Kasara, an area known for its tunnels. Despite the short signal losses, the ATM continued to function well and served its purpose. Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw shared a video of the ATM on social media, calling it the first of its kind in India. This unique idea came from a meeting under the Innovative and Non-Fare Revenue Ideas Scheme (INFRIS) by the Bhusawal division. Divisional Railway Manager Ity Pandey said the proposal was quickly taken forward...

EL-RUFAI CONDEMNS LYNCHING OF TWO HERDERS IN BIRNIN GWARI LGA.(PHOTO).#PRESS RELEASE.


KDSG Security Update: Sunday 2nd October 2022. 

El-Rufai condemns lynching of two herders in Birnin Gwari LGA 

- Directs thorough investigations to fish out killers

- Re-iterates importance of recourse to law

The Governor of Kaduna State, Malam Nasir El-Rufa'i has condemned in the strongest terms the killing of two herders by a mob in Birnin Gwari LGA. 

Security agencies reported that the mob forcefully seized the two herders from security personnel, on unsubstantiated claims that they were linked with banditry. The mob then lynched and burnt the herders, even though they had not been found complicit of the allegations. 

Governor El-Rufai expressed deep concern at the violent actions of the mob, and strongly condemned the extra-judicial killings. He re-iterated the place of lawful methods as the only acceptable option in confronting any suspicions of criminality. 

The Governor appealed to the families of the victims to remain calm, and directed security agencies to conduct thorough investigations towards fishing out the perpetrators. 

The Governor has also directed the Ministry of Internal Security and Home Affairs to liaise with the military, police and DSS to contact the victims' families for further engagements toward averting counter-attacks.

The Governor cautioned against further actions of self-help, and warned against dangerous stereotyping, labeling and similar lawless dispositions capable of stirring up violence. He renewed appeals for consistent recourse to constituted agencies.

Investigations into the incident are in progress.

Similarly, the Government has received reports from security agencies regarding the conduct of some individuals and groups in the general area, who unwittingly complicate the security situation with insensitive public commentaries. Such actions  have been ajudged by security agencies as unhelpful in the ongoing operations against terrorists and bandits. 

While the Government of Kaduna State is not against commentaries on security challenges, the Government's position remains that individuals and groups with useful information should liaise with security agencies, rather than expose citizens to extreme danger through supposed advocacy. 

Signed 

Samuel Aruwan 
Commissioner, Ministry of Internal Security and Home Affairs, Kaduna State.
