Lioness hit by goods train in Gujarat; survives with minor injuries
Wednesday, 3 January 2024 A lioness in Gujarat's Amreli district was injured when it was hit by a goods train near Vijapadi railway station. The incident occurred at around 5 AM while the train was on its way to Surendranagar from Mahuva. The 7-8 year old lioness suffered minor injuries and was rescued and shifted to an animal centre for treatment. The state government has implemented various measures to prevent unnatural deaths of lions, including the appointment of veterinary doctors, introduction of an ambulance service, building speed-breakers, installing signboards, regular foot patrolling, and building parapet walls near forests. Radio-collaring has also been used to track the movement of Asiatic lions near Gir Wildlife Sanctuary.
In a recent incident on the Upper West Side of New York City, a subway derailment left at least 26 people with minor injuries. The incident occurred when a passenger train departing the 96th Street station struck a work train, causing it to derail. Veuer’s Maria Mercedes Galuppo has the story.

A 4-year-old girl in Gujarat has died from the Chandipura virus, marking the state's first confirmed fatality. With 29 reported cases and 14 suspected deaths, the virus is causing concern across multiple districts. The Chandipura virus, first identified in Maharashtra in 1965, causes fever, flu-like symptoms, and acute encephalitis. Transmitted primarily by sandflies, it particularly affects children. Symptoms progress rapidly from high fever to potential encephalitis, coma, or death if untreated.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said by trouncing the BJP in Ayodhya, the INDIA bloc has defeated the Ram temple movement once led by L K Advani, and expressed confidence that the saffron party will meet the same fate in Gujarat in the next election. He said the Congress has been challenged and threatened by the BJP, but it will defeat the saffron party and Narendra Modi in Gujarat just the way it was defeated in Ayodhya. Gandhi was addressing party workers days after the Congress and BJP clashed outside the Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) office when saffron party workers went there to protest against his (Gandhi's) remarks on Hindus.
