Leopard attacks continue unabated — a nine-year-old girl, who accompanied her father to the field, was brutally attacked and dragged away by a wild leopard in Indora-Nimgaon. Despite efforts to rescue her and immediate hospitalisation, she succumbed to her injuries. Locals are now gripped by fear, demanding urgent action from the Forest Department to prevent further tragedies.

In State Election Commission of Maharashtra’s updated order issued on 27 November 2025, election-campaign restrictions have been strictly imposed across Gondia district. From 10 pm on 1 December, all public gatherings, rallies and sound amplifiers are banned — and even informal group movements or processions of more than five people are prohibited. Violators will face legal action under the relevant sections of the law. Traditional ceremonies such as funerals, weddings or religious processions remain exempt under this directive.
Eleven hardcore activists of the MMC-zone surrendered before Gondia police on Friday, handing over weapons and effectively dealing a blow to the dreaded Darekasa unit. With a collective bounty of ₹89 lakh on their heads, including ₹25 lakh for the top commander, the surrender marks a dramatic turn — months ahead of the group’s announced January 1 deadline. Police officials say this could signal a major weakening of Naxal presence in Gondia and surrounding regions.
A court in District and Sessions Court, Gondia sentenced 49-year-old Subhash “Madya” Sridhar Madavi to three years of rigorous imprisonment and a fine of ₹6,000 after finding him guilty of molesting a 45-year-old woman. As she walked along a service road from Dongargaon to Khursipar in October 2024, the accused reportedly asked her name and village, grabbed her hand and dragged her into nearby bushes, where the crime took place. Local passersby intervened and rescued the woman, who immediately filed a complaint at the nearby police station. The court considered evidence from five witnesses, accepted the prosecution’s arguments, and convicted the accused under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code.

Where are the Congress leaders in Vidarbha? In a recent meeting in Bhandara, revenue minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule sharply questioned the presence and unity of Indian National Congress (Congress) leaders in the region, asserting that “they don’t even look at each other.” Bawankule asserted that despite the Congress claiming strength in Vidarbha, its leaders seem disconnected — lacking coordination, solidarity, and visibility at the grassroots level. The criticism came amid a string of local-level rallies across Bhandara, Pavni, Sakoli and Tumsar. He warned that internal divisions are driving many Congress workers away. The BJP, according to him, is seeking votes based on unity and clear organization — something he says Congress has lost.
