Massive tourist influx in Nainital and Mussoorie, after ease in Covid restrictions
Despite the need for RT-PCR test reports to enter the state of Uttarakhand, tourists are leaving the planes in huge quantities and going towards the mountains. Tourists are flocking to popular hill stations like Mussoorie and Nainital in Uttarakhand for relief from the scorching heat of the plains.
Uttarakhand’s top hill stations, Mussoorie and Nainital, are buzzing with people these days, hotels are short of rooms and there are long queues of vehicles on the city roads. After the easing of COVID-19 restrictions, Mussoorie and Nainital have witnessed huge tourist rush. While Mussoorie’s Gandhi Chowk, Kuldi Bazar, Mall Road are jam-packed, the situation is similar in Nainital, with bumper-to-bumper traffic jams reported in the city due to influx of tourists.
The visiting tourists come as a relief to the state’s tourism sector, but with the sightings of people flouting the COVID-19 guidelines, the third wave is now likely to arrive.

What monkey fled with a bag containing evidence in it: Read full story
The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.
In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).
The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.
The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.
Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.
In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.
The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
