Srinagar, July 13: Two Border Security Force (BSF) troopers and a civilian have been arrested in Jammu and Kashmir's Anantnag district after a foiled weapon snatching attempt, police said.

On Bhat's interrogation it was found that he was working with the troopers.
"The arrested civilian revealed that he is working as a source for the BSF and that he tried to snatch the weapon at the behest of two troopers who were waiting for him in a car outside," a police officer said.
"Acting swiftly, police was able to arrest the two BSF personnel. An FIR has been lodged and investigations started.
"The role of the arrested BSF personnel in the aborted weapon snatching attempt is being ascertained," the officer added.

MP: Principal suspended after video shows peon evaluating answer sheets
Narmadapuram (MP), Apr 8 (PTI): The principal of a government college in Narmadapuram district and a professor were suspended after a viral video purportedly showed a peon evaluating students' answer sheets.
Sources said that aggrieved students had contacted local MLA Thakurdas Nagvanshi, who then lodged a complaint with the authorities.
Rakesh Verma, the principal of Pipariya-based Bhagat Singh Government College, claimed that he and Professor Ramgulam Patel were suspended on April 4.
Verma stated that the answer sheet evaluation work had been assigned to a guest teacher, who then handed it over to a peon via a book lifter posted in the college.
A complaint was raised in January this year after the video clip surfaced on social media, Verma added.
He further claimed that Professor Patel had been appointed as the nodal officer for the evaluation work by Raja Shankar Shah University, Chhindwara.
"I was implicated," Verma claimed while sharing a letter related to Patel's appointment as nodal officer of the evaluation work, issued last August.
Verma mentioned that he has written to the Higher Education Department, requesting the revocation of his suspension.
A shocking case of negligence has come to light from Shaheed Bhagat Singh Government PG College in Pipariya, Madhya Pradesh. A video from January 2025 showed a peon, Pannalal Patharia, checking exam answer sheets—work that should have been done by qualified professors.
