New York, November 1, 2025 – American investment giant BlackRock is reported to have been hit by a massive multi-million-dollar fraud allegedly led by Indian-origin entrepreneur Bankim Brahmbhatt, CEO of US-based firms Broadband Telecom and Bridgevoice. According to lender allegations, Brahmbhatt’s companies are accused of fabricating accounts receivable that were used as collateral to secure loans. As the case unfolds, lenders claim the companies now owe more than $500 million. Brahmbhatt’s lawyer has stated that the CEO disputes the accusations of fraud and intends to contest the claims.
The fraud reportedly began taking shape in 2020 when HPS, BlackRock’s private credit investment arm, started lending to a financing unit connected to Brahmbhatt’s telecom businesses. The investments grew rapidly, rising to approximately $385 million in early 2021 and later touching around $430 million by August 2024. The revelations have triggered serious concerns among global investors and raised questions about due-diligence processes in private credit lending.

Jaipur, November 1, 2025 – A tragic incident unfolded at a private school in the Mansarovar area of Jaipur when a Class 6 student allegedly jumped from the fourth floor of the building and died.

New Delhi, November 1, 2025 – The ongoing demand to rename Delhi has ignited a new wave of political and cultural debate, prompting historians to revisit the city’s layered past. Scholars argue that Delhi’s name, rooted in centuries of history, reflects the diverse dynasties, cultures, and identities that shaped the capital. Many historians caution that renaming a city like Delhi is not merely a symbolic gesture but an act that may influence how future generations interpret the nation’s heritage.
Experts also point out that city names across India have often been changed to reflect cultural pride, correct colonial imprints, or reinforce political narratives. However, in the case of Delhi, they believe the renaming push is linked to contemporary politics and identity-based sentiments. While supporters of the change view it as a step toward reinforcing cultural authenticity, historians warn that altering the name of India’s capital could lead to selective rewriting of history and fuel further ideological polarization.
Kolkata/Patna, Nov 1st, 2025 – Political strategist-turned-politician Prashant Kishor has reportedly asked election authorities to delete his name from the West Bengal voter list after a controversy broke out over him being registered as a voter in two states. His name was found listed in both West Bengal and Bihar’s Kargahar Assembly constituency, triggering a political row.
The Election Commission has issued a notice to Kishor, seeking clarification on how he ended up with dual voter registration, which is prohibited under election laws. He has requested immediate removal of his name from the Bengal list to avoid any violation, even as political parties in both states are using the issue to launch attacks on each other ahead of the upcoming polls.
Srikakulam, November 1, 2025 — Harimukund Panda, the temple administrator of the Kasibugga Venkateswara Swamy Temple in Srikakulam district, reacted to the tragic stampede incident that occurred at the temple. He stated that the temple usually witnesses around 2,000 devotees on regular days and did not anticipate such a large crowd on this occasion. “I distributed prasadam to devotees and sent them off as usual. I never imagined such an incident would occur. Since I was unaware that so many people would come, I did not inform the police,” he said. The District Collector and SP spoke with Harimukund Panda at the temple premises and later visited the hospital where the injured devotees were being treated. Police have now taken control of the temple area while Panda remains within the temple grounds.
According to reports, Harimukund Panda had constructed the temple four years ago on his 12-acre private land at a cost of around ₹20 crore, and it was opened to devotees in May last year. Every Saturday, large numbers of devotees visit the temple, but the management failed to anticipate the massive crowd on Ekadashi day, which led to the tragic incident. Nine devotees, including eight women and one child, lost their lives, and several others were injured in the stampede that occurred when devotees tried to enter through an exit route, causing the iron railing to collapse. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, and several ministers expressed deep grief over the tragedy. The Prime Minister announced ₹2 lakh ex gratia for the families of the deceased and ₹50,000 for the injured. Home Minister Anitha ordered a comprehensive inquiry, while the District Collector clarified that the temple is privately owned and not affiliated with the Endowments Department, assuring that safety measures like CCTV installations will be implemented to prevent such incidents in the future.
