Jamshedpur: The city observed Tusu Parab and Makar Sankranti with tremendous zeal and devotion on Monday.

Tusu fair was held at Domuhani in Sonari by the socio-cultural Jharkhand Sanskritik Kala Kendra, which continues the age-old practice. People gathered in particular to compete for the idol of Tusu, the goddess of harvest and fertility.

Jharkhand’s harvest season, known as the Tusu festival, was enjoyed by both the general public and notable figures, such as health minister Banna Gupta, who attended the festivities in his home seat. One of the largest and most well-liked Tusu fairs in the city is Tusu Mela at Domuhani in Sonari, where the rivers Kharkai and Subernarekha converge.

Jamshedpur: During a riveting speech at XLRI on Friday night, Kiran Bedi—the first female IPS officer and a former Lieutenant Governor of Puducherry—inspired students to go above their comfort zones in order to achieve success.

Bedi’s profound stay at Tihar Jail provided as a backdrop to her emphasis on education and self-reliance in improving lives. She gave details about her ground-breaking project to educate prisoners how to read and write on a one-on-one basis to ensure a long-term commitment to their education. Bedi emphasised the importance of focus, imagination, self-control, and honesty, crediting these essential elements for her own achievements.
Bedi, who is from Chandigarh, clarified the critical part that a strict upbringing played in influencing her extraordinary journey.Maxi Fair 2024 at XLRI began with a ceremonial lighting of the lamps, which marked the official start of the event. Bedi was the primary guest of honour.

Bedi elaborated on the idea of integrity, defining it as a combination of helpfulness, accountability, kindness, respect, and reliability. Speaking of her time spent learning in an Amritsar convent school, she credited the orderly groundwork her early years had laid for her future achievement.

Bedi urged students to venture outside their comfort zones, viewing it as a necessary step in achieving their goals. In addition to showcasing Bedi’s motivational remarks, the occasion also signalled the start of Maxi Fair 2024 at XLRI, with Bedi adding distinction as the honoured chief guest.

With XLRI nearing its Platinum Jubilee year, the 44th MAXI Fair is anticipated to surpass previous records in size and quality. The fair offers exciting attractions for thrill-seekers, a lineup of guest speaker events, food stalls serving delicious snacks, and the opportunity to win fascinating gifts and prizes.
The organisers of MAXI Fair are committed to giving each member of the family a great experience, which is why they are providing comprehensive details regarding tickets and schedules.

When Fr. Oswald Mascarenhas conceptualised the research and Prof. Sharad Sarin expanded it up to cover the entire city of Jamshedpur in the shape of MAXI Fair for the first time, XLRI became a pioneer in the field of disguised marketing research. Building on that impressive tradition spanning more than 40 years, MAXI Fair has endured, expanded, and changed continuously to keep up with the ever-evolving fields of marketing and research.

MAXI Fair is a unique idea in which students, in collaboration with partner companies, use gamification to undertake covert marketing research. Some of the largest names in the marketing sector, including Hindustan Unilever, ITC, Mondelez, and others, have previously used insights from MAXI Fair in their marketing initiatives.

Two young people, Mahfooz Alam of Mango and Mohd Majeed of Jugsalai, were injured in a frightening event in which criminals opened fire at Mararpada, Jugsalai. Following the attack, the perpetrators—who have been named as Altamash, Sabbo, Mujahid alias Bablu, and Bikki—left the area. The patients received quick medical attention and are currently receiving care at Tata Main Hospital (TMH).

According to Mohammad Majeed’s account of the incident, Altamash, Sabbo, Mujahid, and Bikki stopped him and his companion Mahfooz outside Murga Chowk as they were making their way home from a party. After they got into a fight, Bikki pulled out a revolver and shot six times. Mahfooz Alam was struck on the palm, and Majeed was injured in the waist and hands.

Majeed disclosed that Bikki’s demands for extortion were the driving force behind the attack. Because Majeed had refused to pay extortion money, Bikki had earlier set fire to his tyre shop at Jugsalai gate. It is purported that the recent gunshot incident was a continuation of this disagreement. The matter is presently being looked into by the police.

Jamshedpur: Three older students were dismissed from the College Hostel by the government-run Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Medical College and Hospital (MGM-MHS) for acting inappropriately towards juniors.

Dr. KN Singh, the college principal, announced on Sunday that three male students—two from the 2018–19 batch and one from the 2017–18 batch—had been expelled as a result of a complaint made by two 2020–21 class students.

According to Singh, on January 10, the two junior students’ car collided with a senior batch student’s two-wheeler as they were parking their bikes on campus. “This angered the senior boys and they misbehaved with the juniors ones,” the principal added. The juniors were allegedly forced to perform sit-ups while covering their ears by the three senior males. The juniors filed an online complaint with the National Medical Commission (NMC) after being offended by the attitude.
