LUDHIANA: The police found during investigation that the fake call centre racket busted here on Wednesday evening had inter-district and inter-state links. The city police on Friday reached Mohali, where a similar centre was being run from a flat in the outer area of Kharar.
After arresting 27 accused in the Ludhiana fake call centre case, the police came to know about a Gujarat resident through whom hawala money was being received. According to the officials, the Gujarat resident has also been nabbed from Mohali.
A cop said, “The accused running Ludhiana and Mohali call centres are inter-linked. On information gathered from the arrested accused, a team of Ludhiana police reached Mohali and conducted a raid at a centre being run from a flat in Kharar. About eight persons were present there and have been detained for questioning.”

Dubai: A Dubai student has designed a drone that he says will absorb pollution from the air, which should in turn also help fight global warming.
Tanay Jagannathan, a Grade 8 studentat at GEMS Modern Academy, said he was building an attachment for a drone that would carry sodium hydroxide, a chemical that absorbs carbon dioxide an air pollutant. Carbon dioxide in the air also traps heat, contributing to global warming, which can imbalance the ecosystem.
Lab tests
Tanay said tests for his idea (at Al Hoty Stanger Laboratory in Dubai) showed sodium hydroxide was found to be most effective among four types of hydroxides to absorb low concentrations of carbon dioxide. Last month, his study was featured in the Journal of Emerging Investigators, a United States-based science journal that publishes “original research” by students.
