Trivandrum Scam: Professor Duped Of Rs 1 Lakh In Fake Policy Renewal Fraud!

Indrakshi Samanta — Wed, 19 Aug 2026 23:48:34 +0530

Thiruvananthapuram: A retired college professor from the state capital has lost ₹1 lakh after falling for a fake phone call promising to renew a lapsed insurance policy. The complaint was filed by Dr. Anil Kumar, a resident of Valiyavila in Thiruvananthapuram. The scammers tricked him by claiming to be from ICICI Prudential Insurance Company.

The whole thing started when a woman, who introduced herself as Roshni Sharma, called Dr. Kumar. She told him that an insurance policy he had taken in 2017 had lapsed, but there was a chance to renew it. She promised that if he paid the pending premium of ₹1 lakh, he would receive the full policy amount as its 10-year term was about to end.

To create a sense of urgency, she claimed it was the last day to renew the policy. She then gave him the number of another 'official', Anuradha Jain, supposedly from the Kochi branch. She also mentioned that a confirmation from IRDAI was required to make it sound official.

The scammers asked Dr. Kumar to transfer ₹1 lakh, which they claimed was for two premium payments, to a Punjab National Bank account. To win his trust, they used fake letterheads with the ICICI Bank logo and fake WhatsApp profiles. Believing them, Dr. Kumar transferred the money from the Vattiyoorkavu branch.

He only realised he had been scammed a few days later, when a friend who used to work in the insurance sector visited him and heard the story. He immediately filed a complaint with the cyber police, who have registered a case and started an investigation.

Dr. Kumar has a word of caution for everyone: "If anyone calls you about renewing an insurance policy, please contact the company directly. These scammers are very convincing and even create fake documents, so be very careful."

Kochi Metro to Become Kerala Metro? KMRL Submits Proposal for Major Name Change

Richa Barua — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 17:04:19 +0530

Kochi Metro Rail Limited (KMRL) has sent a proposal to the state government to change its name. The new proposed name is 'Kerala Metro Rail Limited'. KMRL's MD, Loknath Behera, submitted the recommendation, asking for the government's initial approval. The idea is simple: KMRL is no longer just about Kochi. It's now planning and running urban transport projects across Kerala.

The company is already doing well. It's making an operational profit after successfully finishing the first phase from Aluva to Thrippunithura. The second phase, which will connect Kaloor's JLN Stadium to Smart City, is expected to be ready within a year. On top of the metro, KMRL is also handling the Kochi Water Metro and other electric mobility projects. Plus, it's now in charge of the upcoming metro projects in Thiruvananthapuram and Kozhikode.

Loknath Behera explained that a name focused only on one city doesn't really fit the company's bigger role anymore. He said the name 'Kerala Metro Rail' better reflects their current and future work across the state.

Learning from other states

This isn't a new idea. KMRL is following a trend seen in other states. For example, Nagpur Metro was reorganised as 'Maharashtra Metro', Lucknow Metro became 'Uttar Pradesh Metro', and Ahmedabad Metro is now 'Gujarat Metro'.

For the name change to happen, the state government has to give its nod first. If they approve, KMRL will move on to the next steps. The final decision will need approvals from the Board of Directors, shareholders, the central Ministry of Corporate Affairs, and the Central Government.

The MD has made it clear that this rebranding won't affect the company's assets, liabilities, contracts, or employees. He also said that the money for all the branding changes will come from KMRL's own budget.

The arrest was part of 'Operation Thunder', following a secret tip-off received by Excise Squad Circle Inspector Hirosh V.R.

The group ran a textile shop called 'Home Garments' in Eenchakkal as a front for their drug trade. To make their trips look legit, they would buy some clothes from Bengaluru. They travelled together, pretending to be a family on a business trip, to avoid suspicion at checkpoints. Kiran's eight-year-old daughter was also with them in the car. The police later called Kiran's relatives and handed the child over to them, as he is separated from his wife.

Assistant Excise Commissioner R. Manoj, who visited the spot, said the accused will be presented in court for remand. He added that the investigation will be widened to uncover their entire network.
