Married woman feared to have drowned at Vizag beach found with lover in Bengaluru after Rs 1-cr and 72-hour-long search

-

New Delhi: A 21-year-old married woman, who was feared drowned at the RK beach in Visakhapatnam on Monday evening, was found on Wednesday in Bengaluru.

The woman, Rapireddy Sai Priya of Sanivayya Nagat at NAD Kotha Road had gone to the beach with her husband Appala Raju alias Srinivas on Monday. When her husband was on a work call, she went close to the beach waters. After completing his call, the man starting searching for his wife frantically and informed the police, a report by ToI said.

As per news agency IANS, the couple went to the Rama Krishna beach, or RK beach, on Monday evening to celebrate their second wedding anniversary.

A report by The Hindu mentioned the police saying that the woman had eloped with the lover and that they have been in affairs for many years. "She had confirmed this in a message to her parents and this was communicated to us by her parents,” Inspector of Three Town Police Station Korada Rama Rao, was quoted as saying by the publication.

The parents of Sai Priya further said that their daughter was in love with another person since her school days and she had gone to him. Meanwhile, the police said, "But we are yet to ascertain how she had gone to Bengaluru or whether the person had come here and taken her."

There were several social posts making rounds on Wednesday that she went to Nellore.

Massive search operation launched to find the missing woman

In fear and suspicion that Sai Priya might have been swept away by waves, as she was seen close to beach waters minutes before disappearance, a massive search and rescue operation was launched by the Indian Navy and the Indian Coast Guard.

IANS mentioned officials saying that about Rs 1 crore was spent to search her and resources were pushed into service by the Navy and the Coast Guard. Many other government departments were also engaged in the search operation.

The rescue operation was being carried out using two ships and a Chetak helicopter, news agency PTI said.

"That is why we were unable to trace her, despite search and rescue operation for the last 72 hours," Inspector of Three Town Police Station Korada Rama Rao said.

Sai Priya got married to Srinivasa Rao in July 2020. Srinivasa works in a pharmacy company in Hyderabad, while Sai Priya was a homemaker.

Both COVID-19 vaccine doses needed for good protection against B16172 variant

-
It’s been a concerning few weeks in the UK, with the B16172 variant first taking hold and then spreading to become dominant. This more infectious form of the virus, initially identified in India, is what we’re now going to have to live with – unless it is out-competed by another variant in the future. Worryingly, experts had predicted that B16172 might be able to escape some of the effects of vaccines, which if true would threaten to derail the UK’s plans to finish lifting restrictions from the end of June. However, Public Health England (PHE) has looked at the ability of various variants to evade immunity and says that the UK’s vaccines remain effective against the variants circulating, including B16172. On the surface, this looks like good news. But delve a bit deeper, and things get more complicated, says Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia. PHE’s research found a little drop-off in protection against B16172 among people who were fully vaccinated.

New coronavirus variant emerge in India: How should our COVID response change?

-

After genome sequencing of over 10,000 COVID-19 cases in India, researchers have discovered a new variant with two new mutations which may be better at evading the immune system. In 15-20 percent of samples from the Indian state of Maharashtra (the state accounting for 62 percent of cases in the country) a new, double mutation in key areas of the virus has been detected. These are now known as the E484Q and L452R mutations. What makes the variant different? Both these mutations are concerning because they are located in a key portion of the virus – the spike protein – that it uses to penetrate human cells. Spike proteins attach via a “receptor binding domain”, meaning the virus can attach to receptors in our cells. These new mutations include changes to the spike protein that make it a “better fit” for human cells. This means the virus can gain entry more easily and multiply faster. Given what we have seen with other similar mutations , it might also make it harder for our immu

Aditya L1 Mission: Spacecraft is nearing its final phase, says ISRO chief

-
Aditya L1 spacecraft is nearing its final phase, and manoeuvres to enter the L1 point are expected to be completed by January 7, 2024, according to ISRO Chairman S Somanath. “Aditya is on the way. I think it has reached almost its final phase,” the ISRO chief told PTI on the sidelines of an event organised at VSSC to commemorate the 60th year of the First Sounding Rocket Launch. Aditya L1, India’s first space-based mission to study the Sun, was successfully launched on September 2 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) in Sriharikota. The spacecraft, after travelling about 1.5 million km from Earth over 125 days, is expected to be placed in a Halo orbit around the Lagrangian point L1, considered closest to the Sun. He said that the last preparations for the spacecraft’s entry into the L1 point are currently underway incrementally.”Possibly by January 7th, the final manoeuvres will be done for entering into the L1 point,” Somanath added. Among other tasks, it will capture and tr
