Struggling with acne and gradually witnessing the improvement in terms of reduced cysts and nodules can be an overwhelming experience. However, after some time, you realize that acne marks are still there, and one question might cross your mind: is that permanent scarring? The answer to this question is quite simple; if you have squeezed out your acne, then a scar might have been left behind, making your skin look duller. Also, there are different types of scarring, each with different causes, which can be managed if you follow a skincare routine consistently. However, some scarring might not go away like this and may require the best skindoctor in Ludhiana to perform specific dermatological treatment. Now the question arises: how can you differentiate between scarring, whether its temporary or not? To know them, continue reading this article, which also reveals the effective ways to remove scarring at the end. Are your scars red or pink? You are safe then! Due to post-inflammatory reasons and damaged blood vessels, you might be noticing those red or pink scars, which can go away after a few months. If you choose your personalized skin care routine, then you will gradually witness a significant difference eventually. Coloured skin texture? Might be a sign of permanent scarring! Usually, finding out permanent acne scarring can be difficult. However, if you have been noticing the sharp holes along with changes in skin texture, then it might be a sign of the same. Permanent scarring often happens when your skins collagen is deeply affected, and results in stubborn acne marks getting worse. Here are some tips to remove those stubborn acne marks!

Dont use harsh scrubs or face wash to remove those acne marks, as it will only worsen your condition. Include topical ingredients in skin care! For more precise results, choosing topical ingredients such as Vitamin C or retinoids can be a wonderful idea. You might have heard a lot about vitamin C brightening up your skin; if so, then you have heard it right- it actually does! On the other hand, retinoids help rebuild collagen and thoroughly help remove acne scarring. Choose professional treatments! There are a few professional options that can bring a significant difference in terms of removing acne scars, such as chemical peeling or microneedling. After precisely understanding your skin type, the experts ensure they choose the specific skin treatment in order to stimulate new collagen production along with fixing the damaged skin. The Bottom Line! Summing up all the above-mentioned points, you might have understood the real reason behind your acne scars and how they can be managed. Understanding the difference between permanent and temporary acne marks is crucial to opt for the right strategies for removing them. However, in general, you can follow an effective skin care routine, including all the necessary ingredients such as Niacinamide, retinoids and vitamin C to improve the skin texture. However, if you are experiencing acne again even after trying several home remedies, then opting for acnetreatment in Ludhiana would be a suitable option for you.
NCB exposes twin heroin supply routes into J&K from Pakistan: officials
Jammu, Sep 05: The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB), Jammu zonal unit, through a sustained intelligence-led offensive, has stated to have exposed two distinct routes being used to push heroin into Jammu and Kashmir-directly from Pakistan through the Uri sector and indirectly through Punjab. In four heroin interceptions in the Jammu division within about a month, along with a linked follow-up recovery in Punjab, NCB has seized a cumulative 6.920 kg of heroin. Significantly, two of these operations, an NCB spokesperson said, were conducted inside drug-affected 'bastis', taking enforcement action directly into vulnerable pockets being exploited for drug trafficking. In the latest operation on September 3, 2026, NCB intercepted a passenger bus near new Bus Stand, Samba and recovered 522 grams of heroin from Aqib Bashir, resident of Kakapora, Pulwama, J&K. According to the NCB spokesperson, the Bureau immediately pursued the backward linkage of the consignment. The trail led to Ludhiana, Punjab, where a separate follow-up operation resulted in the recovery of another 197 grams of heroin. The linked Samba-Ludhiana operation thus resulted in seizure of 719 grams of heroin so far, while further investigation was underway to identify and apprehend other persons connected with the supply, transportation and intended distribution of the consignment. The Punjab trail came close on the heels of another major NCB Jammu operation involving seizure of 5.160 kg of heroin. Investigation in that case indicated that the consignment had originated from Pakistan and entered J&K through the Uri sector. NCB pursued the trail beyond the point of seizure up to Leh, where the alleged supplier was apprehended, spokesperson stated. The two investigations therefore exposed two different supply channels feeding heroin into the region-one originating across the Pakistan border and another operating through the Punjab-J&K corridor. As part of the same sustained offensive, NCB conducted two separate operations inside drug-affected 'bastis' in the Jammu and Samba belt, recovering 438 grams and 603 grams of heroin respectively, the spokesperson maintained. Together with the 5.160 kg Jammu seizure and the latest 522 grams Samba seizure followed by the 197 grams Ludhiana recovery, the operations resulted in a cumulative seizure of 6.920 kg of heroin. NCB's strategy is focused not merely on intercepting drugs or apprehending carriers. Every consignment is being pursued backwards towards its source, forwards towards its intended recipients and through its financial trail, with the objective of identifying and dismantling the entire trafficking chain, spokesperson said. The Pakistan-Uri trail pursued up to Leh and the latest Samba trail pursued backwards into Ludhiana demonstrated this approach, he added. Further investigation is underway to identify the source, intended recipients, financiers and other associates of these networks and trace their wider interstate and cross-border linkages, NCB spokesperson said, urging the public to join the fight against drug trafficking. Any information relating to the sale, storage, transportation or trafficking of narcotic drugs may be shared on the MANAS National Narcotics Helpline 1933. The identity of the informant will be kept confidential, it was stated.

J&K exports in focus as KCC&I flags decline, seeks Centres intervention
President of the Kashmir Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCC&I), Javid Ahmad Tenga, held meetings with senior officials of the Ministry of Commerce and the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), raising concerns over the decline in Jammu & Kashmirs exports and seeking measures to support exporters and revive traditional export sectors. During his meeting with Joint Secretary, Ministry of Commerce, Kapil Choudhary, Tenga highlighted the declining export trend from Jammu & Kashmir and drew attention to the challenges confronting exporters, particularly those engaged in traditional sectors. He specifically flagged concerns relating to Pashmina, handicrafts and other traditional products, calling for targeted policy interventions and greater institutional support to restore their competitiveness and expand their presence in international markets. Tenga also briefed the Joint Secretary on KCC&Is efforts to facilitate the participation of J&K exporters in national and international trade fairs and exhibitions. He said the Chamber had already applied to the DGFT for participation in several such platforms and requested favourable consideration of the applications and the necessary institutional support. He stressed that such exhibitions provide exporters with an opportunity to showcase J&Ks products, establish direct connections with international buyers, explore new markets and secure business opportunities. He said institutional support was particularly important amid the decline in the regions exports. The KCC&I President also sought closer coordination between the Ministry of Commerce, DGFT and the Chamber to expand market access, promote traditional products and create new opportunities for exporters from Jammu & Kashmir. In a separate meeting with Abhinav Gupta, Additional Director General, DGFT, Tenga raised the difficulties being faced by exporters from J&K in obtaining Preferential Certificates of Origin (CoOs). The Chamber pointed out that exporters had been facing delays and difficulties in obtaining Preferential CoOs following the India-Oman Free Trade Agreement. Since the certificates are required to avail preferential tariff benefits under trade agreements, delays can affect shipment schedules and exporters ability to secure the concessions available to them. Tenga specifically requested that the DGFT Ludhiana office remain operational for issuing Preferential CoOs for Kashmir consignments from October 2026 to March 2027, coinciding with the regions peak export season. The Additional Director General assured Tenga that the DGFT Ludhiana office would remain operational during the period to facilitate the issuance of Preferential CoOs for Kashmir consignments. The assurance is expected to provide relief to exporters, particularly during the peak season when shipment volumes typically increase. Tenga thanked the officials for their time and for considering the concerns raised by the Chamber. The KCC&I said it would continue engaging with the concerned authorities on measures to strengthen J&Ks export sector, support traditional industries such as Pashmina and handicrafts, facilitate participation in international and national trade fairs, and improve access to domestic and overseas markets.
