    Handwara, Apr 20: The intermittent rainfall for the past few days has caused damage to the vital bridge in Lagate area of Handwara, prompting authorities to restrict the public movement as a precautionary measure.

    An official told the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO) that Daand Kadal – a bridge over nallah Mawer that connects more than 20 villages has been closed for the public movement as the bridge has developed a partial damage due to intermittent rainfall and increase in the water level of the nallah.

    “Though the extent of damages to the bridge is being assessed, however, people are being requested to refrain from crossing the bridge over the nallah,” officials said.

    Meanwhile, locals alleged that the concerned department didn’t pay heed to the worse ning condition of the bridge for the last four years.

    Despite repeated attempts, Tehsildar Langate couldn’t be contacted for the comments as he didn’t receive the phone calls—(KNO)

    Indian students restricted from 5 Australian varsities over fake visas: Reports

    New Delhi: Indian students are reported to have been restricted from around five Australian universities over fraudulent visa application cases.

    According to reports emerging from sections of Australian media, it has been alleged that migrants from India used the student visa system as an easier alternative to access work rights in Australia.

    Reports further said that cases of sham visas are on the rise and therefore, Australian authorities have restricted entry of Indian students.

    These reports quoting investigations by leading Australian newspapers like “The Age” and “The Sydney Morning Herald”, said that mails obtained from some known universities of that country, showed the crackdown on applications from Indian students.

    With Australia expecting a huge surge of Indian students this year, the reports said that cases of expected visa fraud have raised concerns within authorities.

    Signing of a wide ranging agreement between Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Australian counterpart Anthony Albanese, will also allow easier travel for studying in both countries. This too is likely to pose a challenge to authorities to prevent cases of sham visas, reports said further.
