Bengal: SER surpasses 100 million tonnes in less than six months of FY27
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 23 (IANS) South Eastern Railway (SER) has already loaded over 100 million tonnes of freight in less than the first six months of FY27. SER loaded 210.10 million tonnes of freight in 202526, earning Rs 18,324.4 crore. However, it fell short of its target of 218 million tonnes. It was ranked third among the 17 freight-carrying zones after East Coast Railway, which carried 286.26 million tonnes, and South East Central Railway, which loaded 261.25 million tonnes. SER has maintained a strong performance in freight loading during 202627, achieving the significant milestone of 100 million tonnes on September 20. It reached this goal nine days ahead of last year. Till September 20, in 202425, SER had carried 94.94 million tonnes. The year-on-year growth is 5.42 per cent, an official said. The positive momentum has continued thereafter, he noted. On September 22, 2026, SERs cumulative freight loading stood at 101.33 million tonnes against 96.05 million tonnes in the previous fiscal year. While the Railway Board has not set any targets for the zones yet, SER expects to retain its position on the list. Its closest contender for third position was East Central Railway with a loading figure of 203.42 million tonnes. The major commodities that contributed significantly to this year's growth are coal (cumulative loading up by 6.41 per cent), alumina (cumulative loading up by 15.98 per cent), and iron ore (cumulative loading up by 7.55 per cent). The Chakradharpur Division has been a major contributor, recording 75.89 million tonnes against 70.97 million tonnes in the previous fiscal. This was a growth of 6.94 per cent. Kharagpur Division contributed 12.48 million tonnes, up from 12.06 million tonnes. This was a growth of 3.44 per cent, the official said. SER is upbeat about the early achievement of the 100 million tonnes milestone, along with sustained growth in key commodities, and believes it will perform much better than the previous year. This reflects South Eastern Railway's strong and consistent freight performance during the current financial year. In the first three months of 202627, SER loaded 53.06 million tonnes of originating freight, registering growth of 1.51 per cent compared with the corresponding period of the previous financial year. Finished steel loading contributed the highest growth of 18.22 per cent. Iron ore loading also increased by 3.70 per cent. Coal loading from Mahanadi Coalfields Ltd recorded a significant 17.6 per cent increase, averaging 18 rakes per day. In the first three months, originating freight revenue reached Rs 4,539 crore, surpassing the corresponding period of the previous year by 1.10 per cent. Coal traffic generated Rs 1,426 crore, up 1.2 per cent from the previous year. Finished steel generated Rs 810 crore, up by 13.19 per cent. Loading of POL earned Rs 52 crore, registering the highest growth of 26.39 per cent over the corresponding period last year. Fertiliser loading also contributed Rs 25 crore, reflecting a 3.15 per cent growth.

October salary, enhanced DA to be paid in advance to Bengal govt employees ahead of festive season
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 23 (IANS) The West Bengal government will be paying the October salary in advance to the state government employees along with the enhanced dearness allowance (DA) to them amid the forthcoming festive season starting with the Durga Puja next month. According to a notification issued by the State Finance department on Wednesday, the October salary along with the enhanced dearness allowance will be credited to the salary accounts of the government employees on October 15, that is a day before the beginning of the Durga Puja with Maha Shashthi on October 16. Incidentally, the polling for election for the Rajya Sabha seat vacated following the resignation of the former Trinamool Congress MP and the actress-turned-politician Koel Mallick in July this year will also be conducted on October 16. As per the notification issued by the State Finance department on Wednesday, the pension amount for the retired state government employees will also be credited to their accounts on October 15. The notification states that in addition to government salaries, salaries of grant-in-aid sectors, wages, remuneration, honorariums and stipends of various contractual employees will also be paid on October 15. State government employees usually get their salaries at the end of the month or at the beginning of the next month. As per an earlier memo issued by the state government, the dates for payment of salaries and pensions were fixed on a monthly basis. However, in the current guidelines, the state government has decided to pay this special advance salary only for the month of October 2026. In the notification issued on Wednesday, signed by the Additional Chief Secretary to the state Finance department, PK Mishra, special instructions have been given to the officials to make the work of the treasuries in the matter smooth. In the notification, it has also been claimed that the bills should be submitted in advance so that the money reaches everyone's account on the specified day of October 15. The notification, in addition, had directed that the drawing and disbursing officers (DDOs) and the deposit account administrators to submit bills or advice to the Treasury in advance and give mandate to the treasuries accordingly to avoid problems in distributing the advance salary money within the specified date.

Gyanesh Kumar must quit, reform ECI: CPI(M)
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 23 (IANS) The politburo of the CPI(M) on Wednesday issued a statement claiming that following explosive revelations by a media house surrounding the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, not just the exercise but the integrity of the Election Commission of India (ECI) had come under serious question. The statement further observed that the ECI needed reforms, considering the current Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar had no moral right to continue in office. The disclosures have only strengthened suspicions and concerns that the CPI(M), other opposition parties and civil society organisations have all along raised since the SIR process was initiated. Reports indicate that two out of the three Election Commissioners recorded objections to several decisions relating to electoral-roll revision and the SIR process. According to the law, all three Election Commissioners are equal, and any difference should be settled by majority or unanimity. The CEC did not follow this rule but imposed his views without caring for the objections raised by his colleagues. Significantly, these differences concern fundamental questions about how voters are being added or removed from the rolls and how the SIR is being implemented, the statement read. Quoting the media report, the CPI(M) politburo claimed that the CEC had falsely maintained that the SIR process was transparent and decentralised. It is now clear that over the past few months the entire system has been centralised to the extent that it obscures who is actually taking decisions. The Supreme Court has also flagged the over-reliance on technology and the mechanical issuance of notices, the statement added. The CPI(M) leadership said the issues raised by the two Election Commissioners went beyond the SIR process, touching on institutional integrity, the democratic functioning of the ECI, transparency in the electoral process, over-centralisation, and the protection of universal adult franchise. The credibility of the Election Commission as an unbiased institution is at stake. People have lost confidence in a compromised Election Commission, for which CEC Gyanesh Kumar should be held accountable. He cannot continue in office any longer, the politburo stated. Besides demanding an immediate halt to the SIR process, the CPI(M) politburo said it should restore the integrity and democratic functioning of the ECI. Transparency in the appointment of Election Commissioners has to be ensured by scrapping the concerned legislation and enacting a new one by accepting the Supreme Court guidelines for a selection committee composed of the Prime Minister, Leader of the Opposition and Chief Justice of India, the statement read.
Mamata Banerjee demands arrest of CEC Gyanesh Kumar
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 23 (IANS) Former West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday demanded that Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar be impeached and arrested immediately, alleging that he conducted assembly polls in several states after deleting names of genuine voters through the special intensive revision (SIR) exercise. Banerjee went live on Facebook in the afternoon and demanded the CEC's arrest. Referring to reported differences within the top brass of the Election Commission of India (ECI), she claimed the ill-deeds of the CEC had now been exposed. According to her, by resorting to electronic voting machine (EVM) hijacking, voter list manipulation, and administrative interference, the CEC helped the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) win assembly elections in several states, including West Bengal earlier this year. Now, I demand that fresh voting should be conducted according to the old voter lists. Gyanesh Kumar has been exposed, Banerjee said in her social media message. She further alleged that the CEC first helped the BJP grab power at the Centre in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls and later win assembly elections in several states. The current CEC was solely responsible for bringing back the BJP to power in 2024. He is not fit for this chair. He is solely responsible for the ultimate dictatorship that the BJP is running. Gyanesh Kumar has misused the police and central forces in elections after election. As long as he is in the chair, the movement against him will continue. Even though an impeachment was brought against him, the Speaker did not allow it to be presented in the Lok Sabha. He should not be just impeached. He should be arrested also, Banerjee said. She also launched a scathing attack against the current BJP-ruled state government in West Bengal. In the last four months, around 65 people have been killed. The state police are operating as an extended arm of the BJP. But I want to caution the police. The BJP will not be in power forever. But they will have to stay in the state with their families, the former Chief Minister said.
Bengal: Two arrested after Trinamool-BJP clash in Kolkata
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 23 (IANS) The Purba Jadavpur police on Wednesday arrested two people in connection with a clash between Trinamool Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers over the occupation of a party office in Kolkata's Mukundapur area. Police have identified the arrested persons as Srideep Das and Pritam Pandey. However, the party is yet to confirm whether they are affiliated with Trinamool. Tensions flared between Trinamool and BJP workers on Tuesday night over the occupation of the party office. The situation escalated during a programme by local Trinamool workers demanding that the office be vacated. A quarrel soon turned into a scuffle, forcing police to intervene and bring the situation under control. Several people were injured in the incident. Former IPS officer and ex-Trinamool MLA Humayun Kabir was left bleeding in the clash and was also accused of assault. A written complaint was filed with Purba Jadavpur police station, after which the investigation began. Police are examining video footage and eyewitness statements. Police arrested Das and Pandey during the investigation, though details of the specific allegations or evidence against them are yet to be confirmed. Questions have also been raised about their political identity. A police officer said more people may be involved. Efforts are being made to identify them. The role of the remaining accused is being verified by examining the video footage. If specific evidence is found, more arrests may follow, the officer stated. Political pressure has already mounted over the clash, which centres on allegations of occupying a party office and the injuries sustained during the violence.
Calcutta HC seeks ECI report on envelope symbol allotment
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 23 (IANS) A single-judge bench of the Calcutta High Court on Wednesday sought a report from the Election Commission of India (ECI) regarding its decision earlier this month to allot the envelope symbol to the rebel but majority faction in the Trinamool Congress led by expelled legislator Ritabrata Banerjee. Earlier this week, the All India Secular Front (AISF), with Nawsad Siddique as its lone representative in the West Bengal Assembly, approached the bench of Justice Krishna Rao challenging the ECIs decision to allot the envelope symbol to the Ritabrata-led faction. Besides allotting the envelope symbol, the Commission also allotted the name Democratic Trinamool Congress to the Ritabrata-led faction. AISF, instead, was allotted the Almirah symbol. The decision irked the AISF leadership, especially Siddique, who contested and was elected twice from the Bhangar Assembly Constituency in South 24 Parganas district, first in 2021 and then in 2026, with the envelope symbol. He first raised objections with the ECI and subsequently moved the Calcutta High Court. The matter came up for hearing at Justice Raos bench on Wednesday, and at the end of the hearing the court sought a report from the ECI. The matter will be heard again on Thursday. AISF was not the only political party from West Bengal allotted a new symbol by the ECI last week. Humayun Kabir-founded Aam Janata Unnayan Party (AJUP) was given the symbol table, replacing its earlier whistle. Kabir had contested and won simultaneously from Naoda and Rejinagar Assembly constituencies in Murshidabad district with the whistle symbol earlier this year. However, Kabir did not raise any objection about the allotment of the new symbol. While AJUP is contesting the Rejinagar bypoll, AISF is contesting from Nandigram in East Midnapore district next month. The bypolls for both constituencies will be held on October 6, and the results will be declared on October 9.

Dropping Samson In England Gave Me A Sleepless Night, Reveals Head Coach Gambhir
T20 World Cup: India head coach Gautam Gambhir has revealed that leaving out Sanju Samson for teenaged batting sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi during the T20I series in England left him awake all night, adding that it was the toughest decision he had to make in his coaching tenure in the shortest format. India had to drop Samson, the Player of the Tournament in this years T20 World Cup triumph, after the first T20I of the five-match series in England in July, which the visitors lost. He was replaced by Sooryavanshi, who made his T20I debut in Manchester. Samson returned to the playing eleven at the expense of Sooryavanshi in the 3-0 series win over Afghanistan, including hitting consecutive fifties. In two years of my journey, that was the only night I could not sleep and I told this to Sanju because I knew that it was probably the toughest decision in my coaching tenure in a T20 format because someone who was player of the tournament, and then you have to leave him out after three or four games. And the reason was probably Vaibhav was in that kind of form as well, and we had to win the series. Because ultimately you are there and when you are playing for India, or when you are coaching India, you want to win each and every series possible. I had a very, very honest conversation with him and I told him that that is one of the reasons why, because Vaibhav was in that kind of form, and we needed someone to score runs at the top, we needed that little bit of a platform at the top as well. And he was fine with it. And that's a conversation which me and Sanju had, and he took it in good spirits, said Gambhir to JioStar ahead of the start of India's home season via three ODIs and five T20Is against the West Indies. At the same time, Gambhir clarified that young players like Sooryavanshi must bide their time to get into playing eleven. I know, it is (tough). But then, I made him understand that I know you're in good form, but sometimes with the players who have done well for a long time, you will have to wait for your opportunity. There's one more thing - social media or outside noise doesn't decide the playing eleven. Playing eleven who, in that dressing room, or who the coach and captain feel can win us the match, or what is the best playing eleven, and who have done well for such a long time because if Vaibhav plays today, then it's going to be a tough conversation between me and whoever we leave out, whether it's Abhishek or Sanju. So we can't suddenly ignore that a combination that has created such an impact over the last one and a half or two years, that after three or four failures we drop them and play a young player who is very talented, who is also in very good form. So sometimes you will have to wait for your opportunity and we still want to create that security in that dressing room. Because it is very easy for me to take popular decisions, but it is probably the toughest thing for me to take the right decisions and we've taken the right decision of continuing with Sanju and Abhishek, he explained. Gambhir further praised T20I skipper Shreyas Iyer for his selflessness as a leader. The duo worked closely as captain-mentor in the successful IPL 2024 campaign for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). Look, my first experience with Shreyas was when I actually went to KKR in 2024. Obviously, he was captaining there and the best thing I liked about Shreyas was that he was actually, at times, willing to leave his position as well at number four. He was so flexible that he was okay if someone goes ahead of him and it happens very rarely that a captain, who is probably your main batter as well, sacrifices his position for the team's cause, whether for someone else for impact or from a left-hand, right-hand combination point of view, he is willing to sacrifice his position. That is when I realized that the first and foremost quality of a good leader - I'm not going to talk about captaincy - is how selfless you are and Shreyas has that quality. That probably was the massive tick that Shreyas can carry for the rest of his journey as a captain. Because you can be hardworking, you can be disciplined, you can be fit, you can be the number one batter. But if you are not selfless, then all those other things stand for nothing. But Shreyas, I think he's got all the other things, and on top of that, he's got that selflessness as well, he added. That is when I realized that the first and foremost quality of a good leader - I'm not going to talk about captaincy - is how selfless you are and Shreyas has that quality. That probably was the massive tick that Shreyas can carry for the rest of his journey as a captain. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories It didn't take these guys 17 years to win the second World Cup.

Entire Nation Hopes That Legends Virat, Rohit Win 2027 ODI WC For India: Rinku Singh
ODI World Cup: Middle-order batter Rinku Singh has expressed hope that veteran stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma feature in the 2027 ODI World Cup and help India lift the coveted trophy. At the same time, Rinku mentioned that he wants to break the perception of being a single-format player by earning a Test cap. Rinku, who has played two ODIs and 48 T20Is so far, was a member of India's victorious 2026 T20 World Cup campaign on home soil earlier this year. They are legends, both Virat bhaiya and Rohit bhaiya. Not just me, but the entire nation hopes that they play in the World Cup and are part of the team that goes on to win it. It would be a huge moment for the whole country, as who knows, it could be their last World Cup. So, it would be huge if they can win it for India. It would be huge for them as well, because we havent won the World Cup in a long time. We last won it in 2011. So, we hope both of them are with the team, and that they lift that trophy, Rinku said to JioStar. While he gained instant global fame after hitting five consecutive sixes in an over during an IPL 2023 match for Kolkata Knight Riders against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad, Rinku stated that his primary career goal is to get more World Cup wins. Right now, people know me for hitting those five sixes in one over. Whats on my mind right now is that I want to win the World Cup for Team India, being part of the team, contributing with the bat and helping India win the World Cup. I want people to know me more for that, rather than just the five sixes. Having established himself as a reliable finisher in T20s, though he was omitted from Indias squads after the tour of Zimbabwe in July, Rinku rejected the tag of being purely a white-ball specialist and pointed to his solid record in domestic red-ball cricket. Theres a bit of that perception that Im just a one-format player. But you can look at my average in domestic cricket, whether its in one-dayers or four-day matches. I have a dream of playing Test cricket for India as well. So, people shouldnt view me as a single-format player. I can play all three formats, and I do play all three formats in domestic cricket. But for India, I play only one format at the moment. On his evolving leadership credentials, Rinku said hes still a work in progress, while continuing to observe experienced leaders in both domestic and franchise cricket. Im still growing as far as captaincy is concerned. I was captaining in the UP League, and I became champion with my team. Last season, I was the vice-captain in the IPL. So, Im learning the ropes of captaincy, a bit from Ajju bhai (Ajinkya Rahane) at KKR and from many others. I played a lot with Surya bhai, so I kept observing him in the Indian team for two years and watching how he leads. Im working on my leadership skills, and hopefully, something good is in store for me in captaincy. On his evolving leadership credentials, Rinku said hes still a work in progress, while continuing to observe experienced leaders in both domestic and franchise cricket. Im still growing as far as captaincy is concerned. I was captaining in the UP League, and I became champion with my team. Last season, I was the vice-captain in the IPL.
