उत्तराखंड के अल्मोड़ा में आयुर्वेदिक दवाइयां बनाने की सरकारी कंपनी है, जिसका नाम इंडियन मेडिसिन फार्मास्युटिकल कॉर्पोरेशन लिमिटेड (IMPCL) है। 26 मई 2026 को केंद्र सरकार ने इसे 121 करोड़ रुपए में मेसर्स स्काईमैप फार्मास्युटिकल्स प्राइवेट लिमिटेड को बेच दिया है।

IMPCL कर्मचारी संघ अध्यक्ष जयपाल सिंह रावत कहते हैं कि 145 करोड़ रुपए नेटवर्थ वाली सरकारी कंपनी को मात्र 121 करोड़ रुपए में निजी हाथों में बेच दिया गया। यह सीधे तौर पर खुला घोटाला है।

IMPCL की स्थापना वन विभाग की 40 एकड़ जमीन पर 12 जुलाई 1978 को हुई थी। इसके पास 1200 तरह की औषधियां बनाने का लाइसेंस था और वर्तमान में 575 तरह की आयुर्वेदिक और यूनानी दवाएं बनाकर देश के केंद्रीय अस्पतालों, रिसर्च संस्थानों और राज्य अस्पतालों को सप्लाई की जा रही थी।

In Bangladesh, a crying boy hired a cycle van to bring his murdered mother's body to the police station. Clutching his small sister, he explained to onlookers that their mother was raped & brutally killed in front of him and his younger siblings by a Maula (Isl@mic teacher) & two others. They have no other surviving relatives.

The statistics coming out of Bangladesh are devastating: reports of sexual violence have increased fivefold, affecting the most vulnerable members of society. This crisis demands urgent attention and a collective commitment to safety and justice for all.

#StoryAlert🚨

In a Gujarat port case, the National Green Tribunal, in a REMARKABLY SHOCKING order, copy-pasted page after page, excerpts from the very reports commissioned by the very same port, to finally give a one-paragraph “finding” that the Environment Clearance granted to it was without fault!

From page 5 to page 43 (of the total 44 pages), the order copies and pastes parts of the project proponent’s (the port’s) own Environmental Impact Assessment and other studies it commissioned—the very documents whose findings the appellant had come to the Tribunal to challenge—and then treats those very reproductions as the basis on which to dismiss the very grave questions raised against them, including violation of laws, threat to endangered species, falsities in the studies, and lack of several important studies like impact on local livelihood and climate analysis. The NGT order runs into 44 pages but is absolutely DEVOID of any reasoning!

Then, when challenged in the Supreme Court, a bench of Chief Justice of India Surya Kant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi declined to set this order aside on May 11 this year. Instead, they chose to send the appellant back to the NGT.

The NGT order violated at least four precedents that have clearly held that the NGT ought to undertake a merits-review of the challenged clearance, defined what “merits-review” is, pressed for detailed reasoning, called reasoning “the heartbeat” of a judgment, and barred it from resting its conclusions on what the project proponent (the port) says.

The most concerning failure of the Supreme Court, however, is that it did not even bother to take judicial note of the conduct that was highlighted before it. Instead, Chief Justice Kant on that day, went on an intemperate rant against “alleged environmentalists and activists”.

During the hearing, Chief Justice Kant stated: “Show us even a single project in this country where these alleged environmentalists and activists say we welcome this project… Everything you drag to the court… In this country, this kind of litigation is filed only to stall all development projects. That is the problem,” and so on.

The Supreme Court’s own failure to engage scientifically with the case when it came before it, and the Chief Justice of India’s intemperate remarks from the Bench against those who have given much of their lives in the service of the environment, coupled with the fact that the NGT failed remarkably to undertake a merits-review of the Environmental Clearance as mandated by law, is a perverse inversion of their appellate duties.

Can an environmental tribunal reproduce the project proponent’s documents as its own findings and call its one-para decision a “judgment”?

The issue of both quality of judgments and discipline, finally, lies in WHO is being appointed to the NGT, keeping in mind the larger ecosystem of questionable appointments across institutions within which those appointments are made. Precedent then holds little significance. Surely, the judicial member on the NGT Bench, former Allahabad High Court judge Justice Dinesh Kumar Singh would be well versed with the plethora of precedents his bench ought to have followed in the case.

IMPORTANT: Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh (Dera Sacha Sauda chief) granted parole once again, this time for 30 days. It’s the 16th time he has been out on parole since his conviction in August 2017.
He is serving a 20-year sentence for rape. Meanwhile likes of Umar Khaled have stayed in jail for almost 6 years without even a trial commencing. Yeh hai JUSTICE system: Wonder what our Lordships would pontificate on next! 🙏
