Bengaluru FC, Chennaiyin FC Ready To Ignite High-stakes Battle Of The South
Indian Super League: Two former winners, Bengaluru FC and Chennaiyin FC, will renew their rivalry in the Southern Derby when they meet in the Indian Super League (ISL) 2026-27 at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday. The hosts enter the derby riding high after a thrilling 3-2 victory over Sporting Club Delhi, while Chennaiyin head to the fortress following a gritty 1-1 away draw against FC Goa. Bengaluru, who won the title in the 2018-19 season, showed attacking threat and resilience in their opener. Borja Martnez scored twice, including a 75th-minute equaliser, before Menno Koch headed home the winner in the 89th minute. However, conceding twice has given head coach Pep Muoz areas to address. We have to be stronger in duels, Muoz said, reflecting on the opening game. He acknowledged that Delhi had found ways to trouble his side and stressed the need to improve defensively. He also described Chennaiyin as an intense, direct team with dangerous forwards. Muoz highlighted the depth of his squad, saying: You look at the bench. You have a lot of options, offensive options, defensive options, players that can change the game. Bengaluru will look to maintain their second-half momentum while tightening up at the back. Head coach Clifford Miranda has stressed the need to limit Bengalurus attacking space. We have to defend in a way that doesn't allow them much space. In the end, the most important thing is to stay compact and not give the opposition space and time, Miranda said on the eve of the match. Chennaiyin FC, the two-time ISL winners in 2015 and 2017-18, will aim to combine defensive discipline with greater efficiency in attack. The fixture carries a rich history. Chennaiyin defeated Bengaluru 3-2 in the 2017-18 ISL final at the Kanteerava, while Bengaluru claimed a 2-1 away win in the sides final meeting last season through Serto Worneilen Koms 89th-minute strike. Chennaiyin defender Namgyal Bhutia will also face his former club.

While speaking exclusively to IANS, Ajaz said that given that Imran has an American citizenship, he considers to him to be an American. Imran Khan has taken American citizenship. I will consider him American, he said. Ajaz added that if Imran had participated in the protest as an Indian citizen, it would not have been an issue. When asked, Do you think it is right that he participated in the protest after becoming an American citizen?, he told IANS, If he had an Indian passport and went to protest, there would have been no problem. Now I have also come to know that he has American citizenship, which is wrong. I hate America, and I hate Elon Musk. Ajaz further talked about the ongoing Starlink controversy. He expressed his support for Prime Minister Narendra Malhotra's decision, calling it a matter of National security. It is a matter of India's security, and India's security should be the first priority for the Prime Minister, he shared. Talking about Imran, he was directed by the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO) to leave India by October 28 over his allegedly unlawful participation in the recent August Kranti Maidan protests, demanding the resignation of the Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The FRRO mentioned in its order that Imran allegedly violated the Foreigners Act by participating in the protest, as he is not an Indian citizen, but is an Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI). Additionally, on October 13, BJP leader and former MP Kirit Somaiya approached the Union Ministry of Home Affairs and immigration authorities, urging them to issue a Look Out Circular (LOC) against the 'Delhi Belly' actor.

Rules on airline fares finalised, to be published in two weeks: Centre to SC
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 16 (IANS) The Supreme Court was informed on Friday that the rules to regulate airfares and additional charges imposed by airlines have been finalised and granted administrative approval, with the Centre assuring that they would be published within two weeks. A bench of Justices Vikram Nath, R. Mahadevan and Aparesh Kumar Singh took note of the submission made by Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Centre, and directed that the published rules be placed before it on the next date of hearing. The apex court listed the matter for further hearing on November 16. The proceedings relate to a public interest litigation (PIL) filed by social activist S. Laxminarayanan, challenging alleged opaque, exploitative and algorithm-driven pricing practices in the civil aviation sector and the reduction in complimentary check-in baggage allowance for passengers. The Supreme Court has been examining concerns over unpredictable fluctuations in airfares, particularly sharp increases during festive seasons, holidays and other peak travel periods, as well as additional charges levied by airlines. In an earlier hearing, the Justice Vikram Nath-led Bench had orally remarked that there had to be some ationalisation in airfares charged by private airlines and urged the Centre to provide relief to air passengers. Try to give some relief to people. On the same day, flights to the same destination one airline charges Rs 8,000 while another charges Rs 18,000 in economy class. There has to be some rationalisation, the apex court had observed. The Centre had earlier informed the Supreme Court that rules under the Bharatiya Vayuyan Adhiniyam, 2024, were being framed to address concerns relating to airline pricing and additional charges. The Union government had assured the apex court that the issues raised in the PIL, including airfares, surge pricing and excess baggage charges, were being examined at the highest level. The petition contends that sudden increases in ticket prices during emergencies, festivals, and peak travel periods cause hardship to passengers who need to travel for medical, educational or employment-related reasons. It has also questioned the reduction in complimentary check-in baggage allowance from 25 kg to 15 kg, alleging that passengers are being subjected to additional charges for services that were previously included in their tickets. The plea has sought a comprehensive regulatory framework or the establishment of an independent aviation tariff regulator to oversee airfare structures, monitor compliance and address passenger grievances.
Delhi SIR: Poll officials begin reverification of voters removed from draft rolls

The Chief Electoral Officer emphasized resolving discrepancies in voters' details and improving accuracy in the rolls.
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 16 (IANS) After actor Imran Khan being served a notice to leave the country over his alleged unlawful participation in the recent August Kranti Maidan protests in Mumbai, NDA leaders said on Friday that the actor was not an Indian citizen and that his participation in the protests was illegal. They added that the law applies equally to everyone, whether Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) leaders or Bollywood actors. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national spokesperson Guru Prakash Paswan said, If he (Imran Khan) is not an Indian citizen, if he is here on a work visa and trying to be part of illegal protests, then action will be taken against him. Everyone is equal before the law, be it CJP leaders or Bollywood actors. Jharkhand BJP spokesperson Pratul Shahdeo said, Imran Khan is an American citizen, and he was staying in India with a work permit. Now he is taking part in Indian protests. Why should an American citizen participate in India's protests? Why didn't he take Indian citizenship? Why is he here just for work in films? Previously, it was his relative (actor Aamir Khan and his wife Kiran Rao) who claimed that they felt unsafe in India, Deo added. Citing a clause of the 'Immigration and Foreigners Act, 2025', which states that foreigners can't protest in India, Deo said that Imran Khan should be deported immediately. In Chhattisgarh, BJP MP Sakshi Maharaj said, There were two important issues of our nation: first was Lord Ram's temple -- the temple was built; there was no ounce of commotion; the other was Article 370 -- people said that it would bring bloodshed, but there was no change. But when PM Modi introduced the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2026, all the anti-national forces got together. More than Rs 30,000 crore enter the nation through FCRA to enforce Islam and enforce Christianity in the nation, or to run such protests in the country, he added. There are external forces which are working to sabotage PM Modi's vision for a Viksit Bharat by 2047. These protests are not against PM Modi or Home Minister Amit Shah; these protests are against the nation, the BJP MP said. BJP MP Rahul Sinha commented, he (Imran Khan) should be deported; why should a foreigner who is here for work be a part of such a protest? Janta Dal-United leader Shyam Rajak said that in a nation, only a citizen of the country can participate in such protests. If someone is here from outside the country, either they are here for tourism or for education. They can't be here for protests. You cannot come to a foreign nation and question their freedom; it's illegal, he added. Actor Imran Khan was ordered to leave India over his allegedly unlawful participation in the recent August Kranti Maidan protests, which demand the resignation of the Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO) said in its order that the actor allegedly violated the Foreigners Act by participating in the protests as he is not an Indian citizen, and holds Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI).

Master Plan of Delhi-2047: DDA begins month-long drive to brief villagers on land pooling
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 16 (IANS) In line with the vision of Viksit Bharat 2047 and the priorities outlined in the Master Plan of Delhi-2047, the DDA has launched a month-long campaign to promote its land pooling policy by holding awareness camps for farm and plot owners in villages, an official said on Friday. The Land Pooling Policy (LPP) provides for nearly 200 sq. km. of planned urban expansion on the outskirts of Delhi, with the potential to create around 12 lakh new homes and proposes 600 kilometres of additional road network, the official said in a statement. The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) campaign, launched on the direction of Lieutenant Governor and DDA Chairperson T.S. Sandhu, comprises a series of village-level programmes to familiarise landowners, farmers and other stakeholders with the development models envisaged under the LPP, said the statement. The DDA has so far conducted interactive outreach programmes in the villages of Bakkarwala, Tigipur and Sultanpur Dabas, covering Zones K-1, P-II and N, respectively, said the statement. The programmes witnessed participation by landowners and other stakeholders, who expressed their willingness to participate in the development of their land parcels and sought clarifications from DDA officials, said the statement The DDA officials also informed the participants that the road network plan, along with details of the land parcels, would be notified shortly. The policy promotes infrastructure-first development, improved connectivity, phased planning and mixed-use neighbourhoods to support housing, employment and economic growth, said the statement. The next round of DDAs outreach camps is scheduled for Chhawla and Saranpur in Zone L, Neb Sarai in Zone J, Khera Kalan in Zone P-I, and Mukhmelpur in Zone P-II to facilitate wider stakeholder participation and provide information on the policy's implementation, it said. The operationalised LPP provides a framework for planned urban development through the active participation of landowners and private entities, in partnership with DDA, through assembly of land, Town Planning Schemes or through any other models. The policy promotes an infrastructure-first approach, with DDA undertaking phased development of the Road Network Plan (RNP), comprising roads with a Right of Way (RoW) of 30 metres and above. With more than 600 kilometres of additional road network planned, the policy aims to strengthen connectivity, improve mobility, unlock land value and attract long-term investment, ensuring that infrastructure development precedes urban development, the statement said. The policy also simplifies procedures, removes unnecessary regulatory bottlenecks and provides greater planning flexibility to facilitate implementation. Implementation of the LPP has begun on the ground, with Sector 8B, Village Gadi Khasro and Ibrahimpur emerging as the first implementation-ready/notified sector under the policy. This marks an important step towards planned development and paves the way for implementation across other sectors, the statement said.

Dr Farooq said officers were appointed to serve the public, listen to their grievances and resolve their problems rather than insult or humiliate them. People want to express their grievances, and officers should hear them patiently. Instead, he directly said, Get out, get out. This is completely wrong. He should be removed from Jammu and Kashmir, he said. Expressing dismay over the incident, Abdullah said, When I saw the incident on social media today, I felt ashamed. His behaviour was completely unbecoming of an IAS officer. He has put the entire administrative community in an embarrassing position. Asked whether such incidents occurred during his tenure as Chief Minister, Abdullah said no officer or minister had the right to insult people. Whether someone is an officer or a minister, they are here to serve the people and resolve their difficulties, not to insult or abuse them, he said. Backing Chief Minister Omar Abdullahs remarks that such an incident would not have occurred had Jammu and Kashmir retained its statehood, Farooq Abdullah said he would have taken stronger action against the officer. He would not merely have been attached. He would have been thrown out. If I had been in office, he would not have remained in Jammu and Kashmir for more than a few minutes. I would have put him back on a plane and sent him away, he said. He said the incident reflected changes in the administrative functioning of Jammu and Kashmir since 2019. On protests in Delhi, Abdullah welcomed the demonstrations, saying a new wave was emerging against what he described as autocracy. I think these protests are very good. A new wave is beginning against autocracy and against a Hitlerian way of life, he said. Dr Farooq futher urged US President Donald Trump to recognise dialogue and negotiations as the only viable means of resolving disputes. Let us hope that Trump realises that war is not a solution. Negotiation is the way to resolve conflicts. You are not going to win through war. You will only end up killing people, and innocent people will lose their lives, he said.(KNO

New Delhi/Chandigarh, Oct 16: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said the Centre will seek Punjab government's response over two incidents in the state: a father consuming poison under pressure in Dirba and the broad daylight killing of anti-drug activist Parvinder Singh Jhota in Mansa. In a post on microblogging site X, Shah said Punjab is today grappling with a rising threat of drugs, gangsterism and organised crime. He asked Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann who will ultimately bear the responsibility for the safety of Punjab's people. In Dirba, a father succumbing to pressure and consuming poison, and in Mansa, the broad-daylight murder of Parvinder Singh Jhota -- who had raised his voice against drugs -- have raised serious questions about the law and order situation in Punjab, Shah's post read. Jhota's father has levelled grave allegations against the ruling Aam Aadmi Party government and their MLA, it said, adding that the Home Ministry will seek responses from the Punjab government on both the incidents. Jhota, an anti-drug activist, was shot dead by a medical store owner at a busy market in Mansa on Tuesday. Ashwani Kumar, the store owner who fired at Jhota when he was being questioned for selling addictive drugs to an elderly man, was subsequently arrested. The first incident Shah referred to was the death by suicide of Gulzar Singh, who hailed from Dirba in Sangrur, on September 7. Gulzar's family had alleged that he consumed poison after being harassed and subjected to casteist slurs for questioning Punjab Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema about the supply of drugs in his locality. Political parties, including the BJP, have been increasingly highlighting the drug issue in poll-bound Punjab, where assembly elections are due early next year. In his X post, Shah said, In Punjab, the drug trade is flourishing, the threat of organised crime is growing, and questions are being raised about the safety of those who speak out against drugs. Addressing Chief Minister Mann, Shah said the people of Punjab want results, not publicity. Bhagwant Mann ji, the people of Punjab do not want promises, they want answers; not announcements, but results; decisive strikes against drug networks; and an impartial investigation into any political patronage received by criminals. Today, I reiterate my pledge before the people of Punjab that when our government comes to power in Punjab, we will work with full force to create a drug-free, gangster-free, and secure Punjab. Our goal is clear: strikes against the drug trade, protection of our youth's future, strict action against criminals, and the rule of law in such a way that no citizen is forced to live under the shadow of fear, the home minister said. Reacting sharply to Shah's post, Mann pointed to a drug seizure at a Gujarat port and advised the home minister to take responsibility for his own duties. In an X post in Punjabi, Mann said, Amit Shah ji, you should have consulted with your advisors before speaking about me. The BSF (Border Security Force) has jurisdiction over a 50-kilometre range. 3,000 kilograms of 'chitta' (synthetic drugs) are being seized at the Kandla port in Gujarat. Before blaming Bhagwant Mann, take responsibility for your own duties. Do not simply copy-paste tweets drafted for your sycophants. Last month, while addressing a rally in Jalandhar to mark the culmination of BJP's Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra, Shah had accused the AAP government of allowing chitta trade to run openly and vowed that the BJP would make Punjab drug-free by December 2029 if voted to power. During his Jalandhar visit on September 30, Shah had also met some families affected by the drug menace. The home minister had then asserted that those indulging in the drug trade will be sent behind bars. Remove the incompetent AAP government once and within two years, we will eradicate the drug menace, he had said.
