Court awards Rs 61.5 lakh to mother after LIC rejected son's death claim 5 times

A decade-long legal dispute has concluded with a court ordering LIC to pay Rs 61.5 lakh to a mother whose son died in 2013. LIC had rejected five successive claims, citing the policyholder's alleged non-disclosure of a diabetes diagnosis. The court ruled in the mother's favour, finding that the son was unaware of his diabetic condition at the time the policy was purchased. The ruling establishes an important precedent that insurers cannot deny death claims on grounds of non-disclosure if the policyholder had no knowledge of the medical condition when taking out the policy.

Apple Maps renames Lake Ontario to Lake America for US users, Canada objects

Apple Maps has updated its platform to display Lake Ontario as Lake America for users in the United States. The change mirrors a similar move made by Google Maps over the preceding weekend. Canadian officials have pushed back against the renaming, emphasizing the lake's longstanding historical identity. Unlike its competitors, MapQuest has chosen to retain the original name on its maps. The inconsistency across mapping platforms has led to differing experiences for users around the world.

Grand Canyon experiment cuts rainbow trout below 10% to aid native fish

Scientists conducted a four-year removal program targeting non-native fish in the Colorado River within the Grand Canyon. The initiative led to a dramatic decline in rainbow trout, whose share of the river's fish population fell below 10%. Native fish species showed some signs of recovery as a result of the intervention. However, other environmental factors made it difficult to fully evaluate the program's overall success. Conservation efforts to protect the Grand Canyon's native fish populations are ongoing.
