National Award-winning actor Vikrant Massey is steadily expanding his creative footprint beyond acting. His production house, Homemade Stories, is built on a belief in keeping storytelling simple, honest and meaningful, and the actor-producer has now spoken about the thinking that drives it. Explaining his vision for the banner, Massey said, I wanted to tell stories that resonate with people without complicating matters. My motto has always been, less is more. Cut the frills, the superfluous, and just keep it as simple as possible. Asked whether Homemade Stories leans towards a particular genre, Massey indicated that he prefers to stay flexible. There are certain strengths every creative has, but I would not want to restrict myself to them, because it's an ever-evolving market. The idea is to go out there and tell good stories that are worth people's time and money. That philosophy has already found expression in the production house's first project, Musafir Cafe, which has received a warm response from audiences. Massey drew appreciation not only for backing the project as a producer but also for his performance and the character he portrayed. The project is considered an important milestone in his transition from actor to producer. The response to Musafir Cafe has also travelled beyond the screen. Massey is now taking the concept to the mountains, with plans to open two new Musafir Cafes in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. The move suggests an effort to extend the world of the project into a real-life experience for audiences. Looking ahead, Massey has an interesting slate. He will next be seen in White, in which he plays Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. The role adds to a career that has moved from acclaimed performances to a National Award win and, more recently, to an increasingly hands-on role behind the camera. Together, these ventures point to Massey's widening creative ambitions. With Homemade Stories, he is gaining another platform to back stories he believes are worth telling, though how the banner shapes its future slate remains to be seen.

People sleep in peace because Assam Police stand guard 24/7: Himanta Sarma
Digital Desk | Guwahati, Oct 1 (IANS) Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Thursday paid tribute to the personnel of the Assam Police on Assam Police Day, acknowledging their round-the-clock service and role in maintaining peace and security across the state. In a post on X, CM Sarma said the people of Assam are able to live in peace because police personnel remain on duty around the clock to protect them. The people of Assam are in peace because someone in uniform is standing on guard, 24*7, the Chief Minister said. On the occasion of Assam Police Day, CM Sarma saluted every officer and personnel of the Assam Police for serving the state with courage, compassion and an unwavering sense of duty. We are proud of you, he said in his message. Assam Police Day is observed to recognise the contribution and sacrifices of the state's police force and to highlight its role in maintaining law and order, protecting citizens and responding to security challenges. The Assam Police have a long history of operating in a complex security environment, including challenges related to insurgency, border management, organised crime, drug trafficking and law and order. Over the years, the force has also expanded its focus beyond conventional policing, with greater emphasis on community engagement, technology-driven policing, cybercrime prevention and emergency response. The Chief Minister's message comes as Assam continues to strengthen its policing and security infrastructure amid the state's strategic location bordering Bhutan and Bangladesh and its proximity to several northeastern states. The Assam Police also play an important role in maintaining security during elections, major public events and natural disasters, besides regular crime prevention and investigation. CM Sarma's Assam Police Day message sought to underline the human and professional commitment of police personnel who remain deployed at various locations, often away from their families, as part of their duty. The Chief Minister's tribute comes as the state marks the occasion by honouring the force's service and reaffirming the importance of police-public cooperation in maintaining peace and security.

In many Indian homes, the day ends in the kitchen. The last roti is served, the gas is turned off, and then comes a small ritual, using a damp cloth, a few firm strokes across the slab, and a final look to make sure everything shines. While some people do it once to finally clean the slab or the utensils, there are others who do it again and again before they can finally switch off the light.Most of us have noticed this habit in someone close to us, or in ourselves, and they cannot sit down calmly without making the kitchen look spik and span, be it a mother who cannot sit down until the counter is spotless, a roommate who wipes the stove while the food is still being eaten.Even though we often tend to shrug it off as just how they are, or joke that they are obsessed with cleanliness, but small habits often carry bigger stories, and the way we treat one tiny patch of the kitchen can say something about how our minds handle pressure, clutter, unfinished jobs, and the need to feel in control.Researchers have spent years studying the psychology behind this, and there are surprising reasons why this happens.

Aamrapali Dubey has addressed the long-standing rumours surrounding her equation with Bhojpuri actor Dinesh Lal Yadav, popularly known as Nirahua, on the latest episode of Bigg Boss 20. While the two have often been linked romantically, they have maintained that they share a close friendship. Amrapali opened up about their bond while speaking to fellow contestant Love Gill. Aamrapali and Dinesh have known each other since the actress entered the Bhojpuri film industry. She made her Bhojpuri film debut in 2014 with Nirahua Hindustani, which also starred Dinesh. Over the years, their professional association has developed into a close friendship, often leading to speculation about their relationship. Aamrapali Dubey on dating rumours with Nirahua Speaking about her equation with Dinesh, Aamrapali explained that their friendship has reached a point where they can understand each other without saying much. She also addressed the public perception that the two are dating. Even today, our friendship is such that I dont need to tell him anything. I just look at him, and he understands and starts laughing. Friendships should be so unfiltered. People think he and I are dating, and that poor guy has gone crazy convincing me that I should marry someone. How do I explain to him? Men think its very easy to get married. They dont understand our side. We will have to leave all that we have earned behind and go. Men find this idea of getting married very easy, she said. Aamrapali and Dinesh's longstanding bond Aamrapali and Dinesh's association dates back to the actress's early years in Bhojpuri cinema. Apart from working together, their friendship has remained a talking point among fans and audiences. Dinesh is married to Mansha Yadav, and they have two sons. Aamrapali has also spoken about her bond with his children. A few months ago, she discussed her equation with Dinesh's family on the reality show Bhojpuri Bawaal. Her connection with Dinesh also played a role in her transition from television to Bhojpuri films. During an earlier episode of Bigg Boss 20, Aamrapali recalled that Dinesh recommended her name to actor Santosh Shukla during Bigg Boss 6. According to her, after Dinesh put in a word for her, she moved from television to films.

Articles 370, 35A deeply tied to sentiments of J&K people: PDP MLA Aga Syed Muntazir Mehdi
Srinagar, September 29 : PDP MLA Aga Syed Muntazir Mehdi on Tuesday said the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly was the sole forum to raise and advocate for issues facing the region, asserting that Articles 370 and 35A were deeply tied to the sentiments and emotions of its people. Speaking on the autumn session of the J&K Legislative Assembly, Mehdi said the legislators had sought to raise people's concerns in the House and work towards finding solutions to them. As far as the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly is concerned, it is the sole forum where we can present and advocate for the issues facing the region. During this session, we have sought to raise the people's concerns in the House and work towards solutions to these issues. Articles 370 and 35A were not merely constitutional provisions; they were deeply tied to the sentiments and emotions of the people of Jammu and Kashmir, he told ANI. We continue to advocate for their restoration. The BJP is the party that removed these provisions, so expecting it to restore them is unrealistic, he added. National Conference MLA Abdul Majeed Larmi said the Question Hour went well but alleged that BJP members created an uproar in the House. The Question Hour went well. The uproar was created by BJP members; whether in Jammu or in Srinagar, that is simply their modus operandi. They will continue to do this, as they still have three years remaining in their term, Larmi said. Congress MLA Nizam Uddin Bhat said the session was aimed at ensuring that proceedings moved calmly and smoothly while allowing legislators to highlight issues and hold the government accountable. This session aimed to ensure that proceedings moved calmly and smoothly, allowing us to highlight issues and hold the government accountable. Raising these issues fosters public awareness and reassures people that their representatives are advocating for them effectively, he said. Unfortunately, there was significant uproar over certain matters, resulting in a great deal of lost time. Despite this, the Speaker tried to keep the House functioning... It has now become a trend where jingoism and shouting prevail, and aggressive posturing seems to be seen as the only way to get things done, Bhat added. Meanwhile, BJP MLA R S Pathania said his party wanted issues to be resolved through discussion and deliberation, while alleging that the ruling National Conference was responsible for disruptions. The BJP seeks a resolution to every issue through discussion, deliberation, and debate. They repeatedly claim that their powers have been curtailed... The solution is for us to sit together more often and engage in greater discussion and deliberation so that the true purpose of this House can be upheld, Pathania said. It was we who raised questions regarding the allocation of vehicles, and ultimately the issue was resolved; we brought up many such matters. The problem, however, lies with the National Conference; the ruling party itself is causing disruptions, he added. The remarks came amid discussions in the Assembly over Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's resolution seeking the immediate and urgent restoration of full statehood to Jammu and Kashmir. The resolution referred to earlier resolutions passed by the House in 2000 and 2024. Several legislators had also sought amendments to the resolution to include references to Articles 370 and 35A. Mehdi had moved an amendment seeking an expression of deep anguish and disapproval over measures initiated after August 5, 2019, including the cessation of Articles 370 and 35A and the reorganisation of the erstwhile state into the Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh. The Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly's autumn session, which began on September 21, is set to conclude on September 30 after seven sittings. During the session, legislators raised issues including employment, reservation, regularisation of workers, power tariffs and other public concerns.

Major Pentagon breach exposes sensitive data on nearly 3 million people
A breach of the Pentagons sprawling personnel database exposed sensitive information belonging to a massive swath of military personnel, including Social Security numbers and details about the jobs they held, according to a U.S. defense official. The breach affected 2.76 million living people and another 294,000 who are deceased, the official said. The scope and sensitivity of the exposed information could raise national security concerns, particularly because the files included details about the jobs performed by military and civilian personnel. A Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) information system experienced unauthorized access of personally identifiable information by a small number of unauthorized users between October 2025 and July 2026. Upon discovery, DMDC immediately remediated the vulnerability, the official said. Julia Demaree Nikhinson/AP - PHOTO: The Pentagon is seen from Air Force One, Sept. 26, 2026, in Washington, D.C. The Defense Manpower Data Center serves as one of the Pentagons main repositories for personnel records, holding information on active-duty and reserve troops, civilian employees, contractors, retirees, veterans and military family members. FBI investigating possible cyber breach of its job application website: Sources The agency maintains more than 60 million personnel records. Military Times first reported the breach last week. The unauthorized access stretched from October 2025 until July, when DMDC discovered the vulnerability and patched the affected system, according to the defense official, adding theres no evidence yet that any of the exposed data has been misused. Defense officials said they have found no evidence so far that the exposed information has been misused and are offering identity protection and credit monitoring resources. The news of the Pentagon breach comes as the FBI sent a notice to employees on Friday outlining their response to a breach of its jobs portal FBIJobs.gov . An threat actor said it would publish data includingFBI employees'names, home address, personal and work contact information, Social Security numbers, date of birth and emergency contact information, sources told ABC News, and the bureau is operating as if every FBI employees personal information was compromised. But in a statement to the New York Times and 404 Media on Monday, the hacking group shinyhunters claimed it won't release the data as it previously said it would. Since the very beginning of this event we have unequivocally and assiduously emphasised this is NOT extortion, this is NOT ransom, this is NOT financially motivated, the statement said. This was all a marketing campaign to protect our business and actively combat disinformation. If we made this statement normally then this much attention to our words and intentions wouldve never been this widespread. ABC News has not independently verified the group's claims. Employees who were impacted have also begun to be notified, and the FBI said that the impacted system --FBIJobs.gov -- was unclassified. The FBI also issued a warning for those who might be impacted, advising them to maintain situational awareness and to not answer suspicious calls. There will also be internal briefings for employees who have been impacted. It also says, according to the warning described to ABC News, that employees should not talk to the media and if the media is trespassing, employees should call911.
