Class 10 boy gives father's Rs 46 lakh to friends on Friendship Day
New Delhi, August 12: A class 10 boy in Madhya Pradesh’s Jabalpur distributed Rs 46 Lakh of his father’s money among his friends in school, on the occasion of friendship’s day. Amongst the ones he gave out the lumpsum amount were a daily wager’s son, who the boy gave a sum of Rs 15 Lakh, and another 3 Lakh was provided to his friend who had apparently finished his homework, media reports said.
The father who was a builder by profession had kept the amount in his cupboard after he sold a property worth Rs 60 Lakh. Later, when he found the amount missing, he took up the matter with the police.
When the police started investigating, they found that it was the builder’s son who had taken the money and distributed it amongst his friends. Reportedly, one of the kids even bought a new car with the given money. Also, the daily wager’s son has gone missing thereafter.
“The boy’s father has given us a list of students and we are trying to contact all of them. Parents of five students, who got the biggest shares, were summoned by the police and were told to return the money within five days. No case has been registered so far as all those involved are minors,” SI B S Tomar told TOI.
Meanwhile, the police are trying to retrieve the amount from the parents of the kids who were given money.

PM Modi speaks to Iranian president, discusses 'serious' situation in West Asia
New Delhi (PTI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday night spoke to Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian over the phone and discussed the "serious situation" in West Asia.
Modi expressed deep concern over the escalation of tensions in the region and the loss of civilian lives as well as damage to civilian infrastructure.
The prime minister told the Iranian President that the safety and security of Indian nationals, along with the need for unhindered transit of goods and energy, remain India's top priorities.
“Had a conversation with Iranian President, Dr Masoud Pezeshkian, to discuss the serious situation in the region. Expressed deep concern over the escalation of tensions and the loss of civilian lives as well as damage to civilian infrastructure,” Modi said in a post on X.
The prime minister also reiterated India's commitment to peace and stability and urged dialogue and diplomacy to end the crisis.
The prime minister had spoken to leaders of several West Asian countries in the last 10 days in the wake of the coordinated offensive launched against Iran by the United States and Israel, in which the Islamic country's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, was killed last month.
In retaliation, Iran has fired drones and missiles at Israel and US military installations around the Gulf region, including the global business and aviation hubs of Dubai and Doha.
Modi earlier spoke to the leaders of Oman, Kuwait, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Jordan, Israel and Qatar, and expressed concern over the attacks on their countries, and condemned the violation of some nation’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
He also discussed the welfare and security of the Indian community residing in those countries.
Around 1 crore Indians live in the Gulf and West Asia. While about 10,000 Indian citizens live, study and work in Iran, more than 40,000 live in Israel.
