Video: Violent Clashes Between Locals and Police During Anti-Encroachment Drive in Bihar_我的网站

一 | Violent clashes broke out between locals and police officers on Sunday during an anti-encroachment drive to raze 70 illegal houses built on government land in the city of Patna, Bihar state.,District Magistrate Dr. Chandrashekhar Singh told the ANI news agency that authorities had identified 40 acres of a Nepali colony for the anti-encroachment drive. A team of 2,000 security officers reached the site with around 17 JCB demolition machines to tear down the illegal houses.,According to reports, all of the houses were built after the state land was illegally occupied. Squatters had been issued vacation orders one month previous to the demolition.,However, authorities called on the bulldozers when residents failed to adhere to the order.,Dr. Singh claimed that residents of the Nepali colony didn’t have any paperwork, and they didn't file for building authorization from the state housing administration.,“While 5,000 residents live here, only 90 applications were received of whom only nine [were] accepted... We have advertised no sale/buying of this land is permitted, however, parallel sales are going on,” Dr. Singh explained.,In response to the authorities’ move, a group of locals protested against the demolition, explaining that they pay municipal taxes for electricity and other services. Stones were thrown when the bulldozers arrived and police used tear gas to quell the unrest.,Bulldozers going for anti encroachment drive in Patna, Bihar. #bulldozer #Patna #Bihar #Bulldozers pic.twitter.com/BDORLVTe4s— gelos.in (@gelos_in) July 3, 2022,#WATCH | Bihar: City SP (Central) Patna, Ambrish Rahul injured in the clash between Police and locals during an anti-encroachment drive at Nepali Colony in Rajeev Nagar, Patna. pic.twitter.com/NcQ3Kmt5lL— ANI (@ANI) July 3, 2022,Patna Police Superintendent Ambrish Rahul was injured during the violent clashes.,#PATNA | City SP (Central) Ambarish Rahul sustained injuries in the ensuing violent #protests against anti-encroachment drive in #RajeevNagar locality of the state capital pic.twitter.com/lR5WkLLgsD— Aditya Vaibhav (@ScribeAditya) July 3, 2022,Want to know more?

Chinese scientists studying a 244-million-year-old ichthyosaur Mixosaurus fossil from Southwest China’s Guizhou Province found at least 11 embryos inside the specimen. The discovery sets a new record for the highest number of embryos found in ichthyosaur lineages and reveals that high reproductive capacity in ichthyosaurs emerged earlier than previously believed, chinanews.com reported on Wednesday.
Ichthyosaur was among the most successful Mesozoic marine reptiles, and its reproductive strategy was considered crucial to their adaptation to ocean environments. Its reproductive ability before extinction has long intrigued paleontologists.
A joint research team from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and the Zhejiang Museum of Natural History, has published the study on the ichthyosaur paleontology in the international journal PeerJ.
According to Wang Wei, the paper’s corresponding author and an associate professor at the institute, embryo-preserving ichthyosaur fossils have been found across 11 genera from the Early Triassic to the Early Cretaceous.
However, for ichthyosaur groups that diverged in the Early Triassic, embryo-bearing fossils known to scientists remain scarce, and knowledge about the number of offspring they carried is especially limited. Previous discoveries of pregnant specimens, such as Chaohusaurus and Mixosaurus, contained no more than three embryos, suggesting limited early reproductive capacity among early ichthyosaurs.
According to Gu Shengxiao, the paper’s first author and a researcher at the Zhejiang Museum of Natural History, the study examined an almost complete adult Mixosaurus panxianensis fossil from Guizhou’s Middle Triassic strata, dating back about 244 million years. The specimen measures 112 centimeters long, including a skull length of 22 centimeters, with only the tail tip missing.
The researchers identified 11 fetal ichthyosaur skeletons with skulls inside the adult specimen’s abdomen, confirming they were embryos rather than cannibalized prey based on their position and morphology. There are also fossil pieces outside the belly of the adult, which could belong to the 11 or represent other embryos.
All embryos in the Mixosaurus panxianensis fossil were at a similar late developmental stage, suggesting the mother died shortly before giving birth, according to the researchers.
The Mixosaurus panxianensis fossil containing at least 11 embryos sets a record for Triassic ichthyosaurs and all known ichthyosaur species. The researchers believe this indicates that Mixosaurus may have adopted a reproductive strategy of producing large numbers of offspring in a single birth. This exceptionally high reproductive capacity may have provided them with a survival advantage.
Among Triassic ichthyosaurs and all known ichthyosaur groups, Mixosaurus is the genus with the largest number of fossil specimens and is also one of the most widely distributed ichthyosaurs.
The researchers said the multi-embryo Mixosaurus panxianensis fossil may represent an extreme case, but it confirms the species’ ability to produce large numbers of offspring, potentially contributing to its dominance among contemporaneous marine reptiles.
The study offers the first fossil evidence of high fertility in Triassic ichthyosaurs. Future research will examine other embryo-bearing Triassic ichthyosaurs to determine whether a multiple-offspring reproductive strategy was common in early ichthyosaur evolution and what factors drove this trait, Wang said.
