The approach that Janhvi Kapoor has opted for makeup leans towards a soft and natural aesthetic, with subtle tones and minimal layers taking centre stage. The actor recently offered a glimpse into her makeup routine, revealing the simple steps she follows to create a polished look without making it appear overly done. From the base to the final lip colour, her routine focuses on a small selection of products and understated shades. The look revolves around three key elements concealer, soft pink blush and nude-pink lips. Together, the three create a cohesive makeup palette that can work for everyday outings, casual occasions or moments when the aim is to keep the beauty look understated. Janhvi begins by using concealer as the foundation of her makeup. She applies the product across her face with her fingers, spreading it evenly instead of building multiple layers. This approach keeps the base light while helping create a more even-looking complexion. She then uses the concealer wand under her eyes, adding coverage specifically to the area that may require a little more attention. Blending the product with her fingers allows the base to retain a natural-looking finish rather than appearing heavily layered. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Janhvi Kapoor (@janhvikapoor) Once the base is in place, Janhvi moves on to blush. She chooses a liquid blush in a soft pink shade and applies it directly to her face before blending it out with her fingers. The muted pink adds a rosy flush to the cheeks without overpowering the rest of the makeup. Keeping the colour soft also allows the complexion to remain fresh and understated, while adding some definition to the overall look. For the final step, Janhvi opts for a nude-pink lip colour. The muted shade complements the pink blush while maintaining the soft colour palette used throughout the routine. The finished look demonstrates how a few well-coordinated beauty elements can create an effortlessly polished appearance. By relying on light coverage, soft pink tones and a neutral lip, Janhvi Kapoors routine offers a straightforward take on everyday makeup that feels fresh, subtle and easy to recreate.

'Naraz Fufa ji' now has work, says Modi after inaugurating freight corridor
Vadodara, Sep 08: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday slammed those who question his governments development record, once again calling them as Naraz Fufa (angry uncle). Speaking at the NaMo for Viksit Bharat programme in Gujarats Vadodara, where he inaugurated and laid the foundation stones for Rs 35,000 crore development projects, Modi said the country's work culture has transformed over the last 12 years after the BJP came to power. The projects include a 2,800-kilometre dedicated freight corridor, which Modi called a historic achievement for the 21st century. Taking a swipe at those who would question the utility of the corridor project, Modi said, One Naraz Fufa ji will say: What will the truck drivers do? Naraz Fufa now has work, he said, without naming Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. After 2014, India built 50,000 modern rail coaches but the previous (Congress) regime could not build even 50,000 toilets in 10 years, Modi said. Modi inaugurated three key sections of the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor, connecting Jawaharlal Nehru Port in Navi Mumbai with Dadri in Uttar Pradesh, marking completion of the project. Dedicated freight corridors are the lifeline of a fast-developing India. Indias transformation is accelerating because of this modern freight network, Modi said. Earlier, passenger and goods trains had to run on the same tracks, slowing down both passenger travel and freight movement but the Dedicated Freight Corridor has changed this, he said. After 2014, with your blessings, when I reached Delhi, and as soon as we arrived there, we began accelerating this project. Work on the 2,800 km dedicated freight corridors has been completed today, he said. Today, the Eastern and Western Freight Corridors are becoming the main backbone of the country's trade and business, Modi said. The 2,800-km long Dedicated Freight Corridor a testament to how the country's work culture has transformed over the past 12 years, Modi said. The idea for this Dedicated Freight Corridor began in 2004. In 2006, a special company was established to carry out this work, and until 2014, files just kept shuffling from one place to another. Unfortunately, even these files weren't fortunate enough to get a dedicated corridor. The files would get stuck, hang around and wander aimlessly, Modi said. Modi took a swipe at Rahul Gandhi's 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' initiative, saying youngsters would stand with the truth and not be misled by what he termed Jhooth ki Goonj (echo of lies). At every nook and corner, you will find people who will try to mislead you through 'Jooth Ki Goonj', but today's youth will stand with the truth, the PM said. 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' is a student-dialogue campaign launched by the Congress, under which programmes are being organised in various cities across the country. Through the campaign, the Opposition party is attempting to corner the ruling BJP on issues such as exam question paper leaks, costly education, irregularities in government recruitment and unemployment. The prime minister said the youth could see how focused the government was on working across sectors, including solar, wind, hydro and nuclear energy. Modi also urged the youth to develop expertise in Artificial Intelligence (AI). The youth of the country have to become experts in AI, and we want our youth to excel in the field, he added. Modi flagged off freight train services from New Sanand, New Makarpura, New Umbergaon and New JNPT in Navi Mumbai. He also flagged off a passenger train service between Tanda Road and Vadodara.

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 8 (IANS) The Delhi Assembly, Sardar Patel Vidyalaya (SPV) and several government establishments in the national capital received bomb threats through email on Tuesday, officials said, prompting security agencies to immediately activate standard operating procedures and launch extensive checks at the affected locations. The threats were reported during the morning hours, following which security agencies and emergency response teams were rushed to the locations as a precautionary measure. Officials said the areas were secured and detailed anti-sabotage checks were initiated to rule out any possible security threat.

Growing dissent puts Pakistan on course for military-political confrontation
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 8 (IANS) Pakistan's Balochistan, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (KP), and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) continue to remain on the boil, and with no solution in sight, there appears to be growing discontent among the political class, which has now started questioning the decisions that are made by the military. An official said that Pakistan is heading for a major confrontation between the political class and the military. While Field Marshal Asim Munir has managed to control the narrative with an iron fist, the political class seems to be losing patience. The political class, which has to face the people, is unable to explain the violence that is taking place in regions such as Balochistan, PoK, and KP. It has been speaking about internal threats, while the military only blames the problems on external threats. An Intelligence Bureau official said that the narrative about India being the aggressor is no longer working, with the protests in PoK a case in point. There is a direct comparison that is being made between the state of affairs in PoK and Jammu and Kashmir. In terms of infrastructure, the people of PoK are questioning the Pakistani administration about the discrepancies, the official said. The recent statements made by Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz are testimony to the actual ongoings in Pakistan. She blamed internal terrorism over external threats from India as the real problem that is plaguing Pakistan. Another official said that the political class is clearly fed up with the narrative that is being controlled by the military. Such control, which has always existed, has only become worse under Munir. The military has managed to shut down such opposition, but it does not seem to be working any longer. The problem for the military is that the political class and also the people are no longer towing its line. Pakistan watchers say that if such a scenario continues, it would frustrate the military, and there is bound to be a full-blown confrontation with the political class. Maryam Nawaz spoke about the need for better coordination and technology while also addressing the issues faced by the people to solve the ongoing issues in Balochistan, KP and PoK. The military, on the other hand, is forming death squads and funding them heavily to beat down the protests and agitations in these regions. This shows that the political and military classes are on two separate pages. The military may try its level best to control the narrative, but with growing voices of dissent, it is only a matter of time before the situation goes out of control and there is a full-blown confrontation, an official said.
Indias enterprise AI investment surges 119 pc but governance lags: Report
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 8 (IANS) Indias enterprise AI investment surged 119 per cent in a single year above the global average of 110 per cent, yet only 22 per cent of Indian enterprises have testing, auditing and riskassessment processes in place, a report said on Tuesday. The report from ServiceNow said that AI now accounts for 16.6 per cent of Indias average IT budget and is projected to rise to 21.3 per cent by 2027. The report noted that investment momentum in India is being built on world-class digital public infrastructure, deep engineering talent and one of the fastest rates of enterprise AI adoption globally. However, the next phase will depend more on how confidently companies can govern AI. The gap is already visible as 54 per cent of Indian organisations are deploying AI agents, but only 11 per cent have moved to autonomous workflows. Only 18 per cent of Indian organisations have replaced fragmented legacy systems with an integrated platform, the firm said, adding that there is no single layer through which AI can be monitored, audited or governed. India has proven it can commit to AI at a scale few markets can match. The next leap will be defined by how Indian enterprises pair that ambition with governance, connected data and workflows that let AI take on more consequential work, said Kulmeet Bawa, Managing Director & Group Vice President, ServiceNow India and SAARC. The organisations that build these foundations first, will unlock AI's next tier of value for India, Bawa added. India has moved early to put an enabling framework in place from the Digital Personal Data Protection Act and the DPDP Rules, to the AI Governance Guidelines launched at the February 2026 AI Impact Summit. Further, the IndiaAI Mission, and the establishment of the IndiaAI Safety Institute indicates a purposeful national approach to AI, the report noted. Nearly 74 per cent Indian enterprises flagged data accuracy, access and management as the area most in need of strengthening for AI, and 56 per cent pointed to legacy system integration.

'This can unlock new areas and benefits': Cummins, Molinuex back BBL privatisation plan
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 8 (IANS) Australian captains Pat Cummins and Sophie Molineux have thrown their support behind privatisation of the Big Bash League, after Cricket Australia confirmed that the process to sell the Melbourne Renegades to private investment has started. CA on Tuesday announced that it would invite bids from private owners for a 100 per cent stake in the Renegades, with a view to club playing the 2027-28 WBBL and BBL season under new ownership. The sale process will not affect the coming WBBL or BBL seasons, with the Renegades being run in caretaker mode by CA. Privatisation, if done well, can be a great thing for the sport, Cummins said. So many benefits for obviously the Big Bash League, but as an Aussie captain as well, Test crickets so important for me, and I think this sets us up really well for the future. This can unlock some new areas that we can go into in the Womens Big Bash, Molineux, who captains the Renegades in the WBBL added. New investors, new opportunities to be able to innovate and grow the game. The Womens Big Bash, quality-wise, is still the best competition in the world. But bringing in all these new opportunities that come with privatisation can hopefully make the product even better, which is a really cool thing to be part of. Molineux said that the looming Renegades sell-off is an opportunity to get some new fans on board beyond the 2026/27 season. Its going to feel different. Different isnt always ... I suppose it can be a really good thing. Weve still got a year to play in the Renegades, were still very motivated to hopefully finish it off with a win and do really well. Everyone is purely excited by it, and everything that could come with it. Its beyond just the name and everything - being able to rebrand and try and get some new fans on board (is appealing). At the end of the day, if the competitions stronger than what it was the year before, I feel like thats the really important part for us... The Hobart Hurricanes, Melbourne Stars and Perth Scorchers are the other clubs are reportedly keen to bring in private investment. Meanwhile, Cricket NSW's two Sydney-based teams the Sixers and Thunder as well as the Brisbane Heat and Adelaide Strikers are understood to be reluctant to proceed with private investment at this stage. Cummins, however, rejected suggestions that NSW and Queenslands opposition to the privatisation plan will expose a division through Australian cricket. I think its pretty hard to get 100 per cent buy-in on anything, really, he said. I know that as captain. Sometimes youve got to make a call. It sounds like each club, the decisions in their own hands, and they (CA) have unlocked a structure where theyre going to be able to keep those decisions. As an Aussie player, I think its good for Aussie cricket if done well, he said.

The Allahabad High Court has quashed the National Security Act detention of 25-year-old Delhi University graduate Aakriti Chaudhary in connection with the April 2026 Noida workers protest.

It also held that Medha Roopam violated her oath of allegiance and warned against actions that could turn Uttar Pradesh into an Orwellian dystopia.

Why ISI's new honey-trap game employs psychologists to lure targets
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 8 (IANS) The number of honey-trap cases reported in India over the last few years has been growing, despite advisories and warnings, as several officials continue to fall prey to these networks. An official said that Pakistan's ISI, which runs these networks, has appointed scores of psychologists to identify officials who have access to sensitive information. The idea is to study such individuals, tap into their personal problems, and then elicit information from them. An Intelligence Bureau official said that the ISI has been appointing psychologists for this purpose and has directed them to create social media accounts using female identities before they scout for targets. These are highly trained persons who are able to trap officials who have personal issues. These psychologists first identify officials on social media, and then study in-depth the kind of messages that they put up. Since they are trained psychologists, they are able to easily gauge the mindset of such officials, the official added. Once identified, these ISI-appointed psychologists begin chatting with these officials and are very sympathetic to them. They spend months trying to identify the vulnerabilities of these persons. It takes around two to three months before they earn the trust of these officials. When the trust is gained, these persons are told to install applications on their systems. Most of these applications are sneaking spyware and malware, which are of Chinese origin. Officials say that the honey-trap networks are no longer relying on money as bait. It is more of a mind game, and the ISI has said that it is easier to tap into officials holding sensitive information by using their personal problems, the official added. Since this modus operandi has been working well for the ISI, it has been decided that there has been a growing clamour for psychologists in Pakistan. In recent cases, it has been found that tapping into the personal problems of officials has worked well for the ISI. These officials are vulnerable, and they stay on social media to vent out their frustrations. In such cases, psychologists are able to easily identify these vulnerabilities and using their expertise, they are able to trap such persons. Money and intimidation are no longer the baits that are used. It is the exploitation of vulnerabilities, and the use of intimacy and attraction has managed to trap officials holding sensitive information. Such tactics are used best by psychologists. Before the trapped person even realises it, they are already handing out sensitive information through digital communication channels. The recent surge in appointments of psychologists into these honey-trap networks is something that has worried the Indian agencies. The scenario is worrisome as many officials continue to fall into the trap and even end up installing data-leaking software or malware onto their systems, despite advisories being issued on a regular basis, an official said.
