When 'Raj' Escaped Choked
The New Indian Express Mysuru
|April 20, 2025
Once a leading figure in India's diamond industry, Mehul Choksi is now infamous as the mastermind behind one of the country's largest banking frauds and is currently facing extradition from Belgium to India.
Born in Mumbai in 1959 and educated in Gujarat, Choksi inherited his father's diamond business and transformed it into the global Gitanjali Group. Known for his flamboyant lifestyle, he lived with his wife Preeti and their three children in luxury—while orchestrating what would become a ₹13,500 crore scam that shook India's financial sector.
The burly businessman expanded Gitanjali Gems into a retail powerhouse with over 4,000 outlets across India and abroad. Celebrities such as Aishwarya Rai, Kareena Kapoor, and Katrina Kaif endorsed his brand, helping it gain aspirational value among Indian consumers.
International expansion followed, with partnerships across the US, Europe, Japan, and West Asia. However, behind the glitz, financial mismanagement and fraudulent practices were beginning to unravel.

Adoption agency CEO: Are orphans falling into hands of traffickers?
IN a loaded statement on child adoptions in the country, Bhavana Saxena, Member Secretary and CEO, Central Adoption Resource Authority (CARA), said, “Is there any loophole in the legal system? We need to find out where the orphaned, abandoned and surrendered children are ending up. Why is the registration in the State Adoption Resource Centre and Child Care Institutions so low? Last year, in India, there were only 4,515 adoptions. It is a low figure though it is the highest in the last ten years. Are there leakages in the legal system through which these children are falling into the hands of traffickers? It is time that various departments work together and fix this issue.”

An Ayurvedic Apothecary
There's a quiet thrill in stepping onto a trail just as the hills wake up. As you begin your trek through Gold Valley in Maharashtra's Lonavala, the clouds play hide-and-seek. A Blue Mormon flutters past, disappearing into the dense canopy. The loud calls of Indian Grey Hornbills invites you deeper into this pocket of the Sahyadri Hills, on Western Ghats.
