Nagpur: Nagpur division of Central Railway has floated a tender for the third time to start a radio taxi or app-based cab service at the Nagpur station. The previous cab aggregator, Prisha Tours & Travels, Nagpur, encountered numerous obstacles in providing seamless cab service from the station and ultimately ceased operations on Oct 17, 2024, as the firm struggled to remit licence fees due to substantial losses. Since then, cabs can only drop passengers but cannot pick them up.

Nagpur: A farmer was killed in a tiger attack in Pitesur in Jamkandri range under Bhandara forest division on Thursday — the first human casualty due to a tiger attack in the range. Forest authorities are bewildered as Jamkandri range, part of Navegaon-Nagzira-Pench corridor, has no previous record of tiger attacks on humans. The deceased, identified as Laxman Doman Mohankar (60), left his residence on Wednesday at 3pm to go fishing and visit his farm.
