Manipal: A family that was traveling from Mumbai to Udupi to attend a wedding function recently lost 900 grams of gold jewelry worth Rs 63 lakh during the train journey.
Avinash, who is a resident of Mumbai, left for Udupi with his family by train on November 15. The family carried four suitcases with clothes and jewelry, but reportedly only zipped up the suitcases and did not lock them. On November 16, they got down at the Indrali Railway Station in the taluk and traveled to Manipura village near Katapady. The same evening, the family received a shock when they opened two bags, only to find that the gold jewelry weighing 900 grams and worth Rs 63 lakh kept in the bags was missing.

They filed a complaint with Manipal Police, suspecting that the jewelry was stolen at a stretch between Panvel and Kankavali railway stations in Maharashtra.
Manipal Police, who registered a case based on the family’s complaint, are investigating. Police sources have said that, as the criminal act was committed in Maharashtra, the case might be handed over to the concerned police officers, for further investigation.

Mullanpur (PTI): Priyansh Arya and Cooper Connolly were in a punishing mood, making 93 and 87 respectively, to drive Punjab Kings to an imposing 254/7 against Lucknow Super Giants in an IPL match here on Sunday.
Arya and Connolly added 182 runs in just 13.2 overs for a massively entertaining second wicket stand for PBKS, as they tallied this IPL season's highest total, going past RCB's 250 for three.
LSG managed to dismiss the duo and Punjah skipper Shreyas Iyer in quick succession but the home team had already built a superb launching pad by then for Marcus Stoinis (29) to cash in.
Brief scores: Punjab Kings: 254/7 in 20 overs (Cooper Connolly 87, Priyansh Arya 93; Prince Yadav 2/25).
