Paperwork Completed For Hardik-Arshdeep Swap Ahead Of IPL 2027, Formal Nod Awaited
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: The paperwork has been completed for seam-bowling all-rounder Hardik Pandya to join Punjab Kings (PBKS) ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2027. With Pandya going to PBKS in a trade deal, left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh will head to five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI). The deal, though, still needs formal approval before it is formally announced. Yes, the initial paperwork for this trade has been completed. Now it has to get formal approval of the BCCI and IPL governing council, and then it can be announced along with the final amount, said an IPL source to IANS on Saturday. IANS previously reported on November 3 that Shreyas Iyer-led PBKS had surged ahead of other teams like Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to acquire Pandyas services ahead of the November 17 retentions deadline. Wicketkeeper-batter Vishnu Vinod was initially a part of the exchange, but IANS understands that he has been left out of it. No, he is not a part of this trade deal, added another source. The trade also ends Hardiks second spell at MI, which began when the franchise acquired him from Gujarat Titans (GT) in an all-cash deal ahead of IPL 2024 and handed him the captaincy in place of Rohit Sharma, who had guided the side to five titles. His homecoming was expected to give MI a long-term leader, but things did not go as per the expected plan. Though MI reached the playoffs in IPL 2025, they finished at the bottom of the points table in IPL 2024 and ended at the ninth spot in IPL 2026. In 39 games where Hardik was MIs captain, they won 15 games and lost 24 matches. Meanwhile, Arshdeep has been with PBKS since IPL 2019, and his exploits with them paved his way into the Indian team. As of now, Arshdeep is playing in the ODI series in New Zealand and is also Indias highest wicket-taker in T20Is. Both Pandya and Arshdeep were members of the Mens T20 World Cup-winning Indian team in 2024 and 2026. Pandyas fitness, though, is a big concern. He has not played competitive cricket since IPL 2026 due to a series of injuries, the most recent being a shin problem that kept him out of India As one-day series against Australia A in Puducherry in October. That recovery from the shin injury also ruled out Pandya from being a part of Barodas squad for the upcoming Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. IANS also understands that PBKS had looked to trade out Australias seam-bowling all-rounder Marcus Stoinis in exchange for Lucknow Super Giants left-arm pacer Mohsin Khan, but theres been a change of heart from the franchise, and if all goes well, he is likely to be retained for the 2027 IPL season. It is also understood that Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are in talks over initiating a major trade involving more than two players. Though the names of the players in question have been doing the rounds, a formal announcement will be made once it gets the IPL governing council's nod. IANS also understands that PBKS had looked to trade out Australias seam-bowling all-rounder Marcus Stoinis in exchange for Lucknow Super Giants left-arm pacer Mohsin Khan, but theres been a change of heart from the franchise, and if all goes well, he is likely to be retained for the 2027 IPL season.

Diwali rush: Over 8.20 lakh passengers travel in six days; Western Railway runs 73 special trains
Digital Desk | Ahmedabad, Nov 7 (IANS) More than 8.20 lakh passengers travelled from stations under the Ahmedabad Division of Western Railway in the first six days of November, prompting the railway administration to deploy additional staff, set up holding areas and operate 73 special train trips to manage the festive rush during Diwali and Chhath Puja. Between November 1 and 6, the division recorded 4.55 lakh passengers travelling on unreserved tickets and 3.65 lakh on reserved tickets. Ahmedabad Railway Station accounted for more than 3.20 lakh passengers, followed by Sabarmati with 1.30 lakh and Asarwa with around 50,000. Together, the three stations handled more than five lakh passengers during the six days. To meet the additional demand, Western Railway is operating 73 special train trips from the Ahmedabad Division during November to destinations across Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Maharashtra and other states. The services are being operated from Ahmedabad, Sabarmati, Asarwa, Bhuj and Gandhidham, connecting passengers to cities including Lucknow, Kanpur, Agra, Mumbai, Prayagraj, Muzaffarpur, Darbhanga, Barauni, Rajgir, Jaipur, Haridwar and Bhagalpur. Divisional Railway Manager (DRM) Ved Prakash visited Ahmedabad Railway Station late at night and remained there with railway officials to oversee arrangements for passengers travelling during the festive season. He inspected the holding areas and other facilities and interacted with passengers heading to Uttar Pradesh and Bihar to enquire about their travel experience. He also extended Chhath Puja greetings and appealed to them to board trains in an orderly manner. Passengers raised slogans of 'Chhath Maiya Ki Jai' alongside the DRM and appreciated the arrangements. They said that after waiting for some time, they were allowed to board trains in an organised manner, allowing them to proceed towards their hometowns. Special holding areas have been set up at Ahmedabad and Sabarmati stations to prevent overcrowding on platforms. Seating, drinking water, lighting and fans have been provided at these locations for passengers waiting for their trains. The division has also arranged food packets, water bottles, chips and biscuits for general-class passengers. Voluntary organisations and NGOs are assisting in distributing food and drinking water. Additional cleaning staff have been deployed, while water coolers and other drinking water facilities are being monitored regularly. For security and crowd management, additional Railway Protection Force (RPF) and Government Railway Police (GRP) personnel, ticket-checking staff and other railway employees have been deployed. CCTV cameras are being used to monitor station premises, platforms and crowded areas. Particular attention is being paid to regulating passenger movement at entry and exit gates, foot overbridges and platforms. A dedicated war room has also been set up in the control building at the DRM's office to monitor passenger movement and train operations round the clock. During his inspection, Prakash reviewed CCTV surveillance, real-time crowd management, passenger movement on platforms, holding areas and queue-based boarding arrangements. He directed officials to coordinate immediately through the war room and take necessary action in the event of excessive crowding or passenger inconvenience at any station. Information about special train services, schedules and passenger facilities is being disseminated through electronic display boards, public announcement systems and social media. Train operations and punctuality are also being monitored regularly. The division has appealed to passengers to follow railway guidelines, maintain discipline on station premises and reach stations sufficiently ahead of their scheduled train departure times.

Vidyut Jammwal has spoken about the emotional impact of the reported firing incident involving Tiger Shroff in Mumbai, saying that the actor has every reason to feel stressed after going through such an experience. During a conversation with Ranveer Allahbadia, Vidyut recalled speaking to Tiger and shared his thoughts on how the incident could affect his personal life and fitness routine. Discussing the pressure Tiger might be dealing with, Vidyut said the experience could make him hesitant about activities he previously enjoyed, including playing football and sharing fitness videos on social media. I can imagine the pressure you have. With you, the experience you have gone through will limit you from playing football; you might not be posting a lot of fitness videos thinking people might make fun of you, or not posting your kicking videos, and that could be the reason for his ageing. This is the time when he can decide if he wants to become the fittest version of himself or become better than that. He is happy, stressed for sure, he said. Vidyut also recalled telling Tiger that the incident was an unusual experience, even by the standards of people who have encountered dangerous situations in their line of work. I was telling him that there would be nobody in the world who could say, 'I have seen a shooter shoot in front of my face.' This happens in the Army, he said. Emphasising the emotional toll of the incident, Vidyut added that Tiger's stress should not be dismissed as an ordinary reaction. I told Tiger that he has to be stressed because there has been an attempt to murder him, so it cannot be a normal experience. So, he is good and trying his best to get out of this, he added. The incident took place on October 18 outside a football club near Pushpa Narsee Park in Mumbai's Juhu area. Tiger was present at the location when shots were fired. He escaped unharmed, while his driver and an autorickshaw driver were injured. Also Read:Kitao Sakurai on casting Vidyut Jammwal in Street Fighter: Hes more Dhalsim than Dhalsim

Digital Desk | Nalasopara, Nov 7 (IANS) A man accused of murdering his wife following domestic disputes and suspicions about her character allegedly died by suicide by jumping in front of a local train at Grant Road railway station in Mumbai, hours after the woman's body was found at their residence in Maharashtra's Nalasopara. The two incidents, which took place within a few hours, have sent shockwaves through the area, with police investigating the circumstances surrounding the murder and the subsequent suicide. According to the Nalasopara Police, the accused, identified as Majeed Hanif Khan (50), was a resident of Alfatifa Building in Aman Nagar, Takipada, Nalasopara West. He allegedly suspected his wife, Tabassum Majeed Khan, of infidelity, leading to frequent arguments and disputes between the couple. According to preliminary information, Tabassum ran tuition classes for young children from their home. Parents regularly visited the house to drop off and pick up their children. Majeed reportedly developed suspicions about his wife's character over these visits, which frequently led to arguments between them. As per the complaint filed in the case, the family had dinner together on the night of November 6 and watched television until late. Subsequently, their daughter went to sleep in the hall, while her parents remained in their bedroom. On November 7, around 5 a.m., the daughter woke up and noticed that the main door of the house was open. When she entered the bedroom, she found her mother, Tabassum, lying unconscious on the floor with injuries to her face and neck. Her father was missing from the house. In her complaint, the daughter alleged that her father had attacked her mother with a sharp-edged weapon, inflicting injuries to her face and neck that resulted in her death, before fleeing the scene. Following the information, a team from the Nalasopara Police Station reached the spot, conducted an inquest and sent the body for post-mortem examination. Police registered a murder case against the accused husband and launched a search to trace him. Meanwhile, the police received information that Majeed Hanif Khan had allegedly died by suicide after jumping in front of a local train at Mumbai's Grant Road railway station. The police are now investigating the sequence of events and the circumstances leading to both incidents. Further investigation is underway.
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Nov 7 (IANS) Actress Aditi Rao Hydari, who is awaiting the release of her upcoming film Parivarik ManuRanjan, has shared her opinion on the current system and modern tools of film promotions. The actress spoke with IANS along with her co-actor Pankaj Tripathi at a 5-star property in the Goregaon east area of Mumbai during the promotions of the film in the city. She drew parallels between making and promoting film and cooking food. She said that garnishing alone cannot salvage a badly made recipe. She said that makers should focus on telling a good story, marketing and promotions can help the accentuate the content. She told IANS, I have not learnt filmmaking so, pardon me but, I feel that like how we make food, if we are not putting the right ingredients, and not giving that recipe be it khichdi or biryani the desired time and attention then it wont turn out good. You will reject it after a few bites irrespective of its presentation. The work we do, what we make is an art form. We are part of an artistic industry. So we should put artistry in our work while making a film. She further mentioned, We love our film, we must love our story, we must love our actors, we must know why we have our actors there, how we are showing them. I feel like there were so many visionaries before us who did this. And no matter whoever said that, This won't work, this will work, they would go by thor conviction. I wish that we would still make films like that. I really, really pray and wish for it because I love this field. It's a very, very beautiful field. And with marketing, if we don't put love in it, we can't fix it. First, we have to make it really well then we have to sell it. You taste it, you love it, you come back for more. A good story will eventually find its audience. Even if a good story doesn't work at the time of release, it will have a long shelf life, she added. Meanwhile, Parivarik ManuRanjan is set to drop on November 13, 2026 on November 13, 2026 on SonyLIV.

Harry Boxer's extradition to India may take months due to legal hurdles: CBI sources
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 7 (IANS) Bringing Harry Boxer (Hari Chand Jaat) a notorious shooter of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, from the United States to India is unlikely to be an easy task, as investigating agencies may face several legal hurdles and procedural delays. Although he has been detained by the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in California, his extradition could take several months due to legal complications, according to sources. According to CBI sources, Harry Boxer has been detained for immigration violations and not in connection with criminal cases registered against him in India. In the US, he will first have to undergo proceedings before an immigration court, followed by a hearing. Subsequently, India will have to formally submit an extradition dossier under the bilateral Extradition Treaty. The dossier will include forensic evidence, details of FIRs, charge sheets and voice recordings linked to cases registered against him in Rajasthan, Punjab, Delhi and Mumbai. The CBI told IANS that the extradition process in the US is lengthy, with the accused having ample opportunities to challenge the proceedings in courts. In several cases, accused persons also seek political asylum, which can further delay the process. Another major challenge is that most of the cases registered against Boxer are being investigated by state police agencies. Therefore, documents related to cases from different states will have to be consolidated into a single dossier and forwarded to the Ministry of External Affairs through the CBI. Meanwhile, the Delhi Police Special Cell and the Mumbai Crime Branch have started submitting documents related to the cases against him to central agencies. Officials said that his extradition to India would not be possible until the US court gives the necessary approval. Harry Boxer, has been detained in the United States following inputs and efforts by Indian law enforcement agencies. Indian security and Intelligence agencies had been closely tracking his movements, particularly after the firing incident outside Bollywood film-maker Rohit Shetty's residence in Mumbai. Boxer, a native of Narayanpur village in Rajasthan, earned the nickname due to his earlier association with sports and his background as a boxing coach in Jaipur. He gradually moved away from his sporting and farming background and entered the criminal underworld. He has been absconding since 2022 and eventually fled India to the United States, where Indian agencies continued to track his activities.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Nov 7 (IANS) Rapper Macklemore has alleged that nine major arenas turned down his proposed Palestine benefit tour, claiming that venues withdrew previously available dates after learning that the shows were intended to raise funds for Palestine. Reflecting on the successful Dublin, Paris and London concerts, the musician took to Instagram and shared a long note saying he would rather lose professional opportunities than remain silent on the issue, adding that he plans to continue organising benefit shows with fellow artists and activists. He wrote in the note: Good day, my people. A lot of you have been asking about US dates for The Free Palestine benefit tour, and I wanted to give you an update. The shows in Dublin, Paris and London were three of the most beautiful I've ever been a part of. Thank you to everyone who shared in those nights of joy, love and resistance. I left with a renewed sense of what's possible when people come together for something bigger than themselves. From the beginning, our plan was to bring this tour home to the US. But after weeks of reaching out, nine major American arenas have turned us down: Madison Square Garden, Prudential Center, Barclays Center, UBS Arena, Intuit Dome, Kia Forum, Crypto.com Arena, Chase Center and Climate Pledge Arena. Here's what happened, Macklemore said. By mid-September, we received available dates at these arenas through the end of the year. But once they found out these were my benefit shows for Palestine, those dates were suddenly off the table. The doors were closed. The conversations were all different, but the result was the same. The shows were not going to be allowed to happen in these venues. Macklemore said that in over 20 years of touring, he has never experienced anything like this. But this is not an isolated incident. For decades, activists, poets, writers, musicians and entertainers who have stood in solidarity with the Palestinian people have faced consequences for doing so. Many have paid a far greater price than I have. Looking back over the last three years, the only real regret I have is not speaking publicly when Zionists were kicking me under the table. At the time, I didn't believe that centering what was happening to me was worth taking any attention away from the genocide in Palestine. But the intimidation, manipulation and suppression I experienced are part of how those in power keep entertainers quiet. It's their main tactic to keep us in line. Shut up and dribble, or you will be punished. The Thriftshop hitmaker said that at this point, he is three years past caring about maintaining any relationships, business or personal, with anyone that isn't riding for a Free Palestine. I'd rather lose every opportunity in this industry than spend another day protecting people who value their business relationships with Israel more than they value Palestinian human life. We live in a country that prides itself on freedom of speech. Yet we've reached a point where a handful of billionaires can decide which causes are acceptable, which voices are welcome and which human lives are worth defending. Today it's Palestine. What will it be tomorrow? He added: To these owners, the words Free Palestine represent a threat. Not because they endanger anyone, but because those words challenge the systems of power they have built their fortunes on. To the artists who are afraid of what those two words might cost them, I understand that fear. I felt it myself, especially when I was still wrestling with whether to speak out. But I believe that fear begins to lose its power the moment we realize we're not standing alone. He says he dreams of a world where saying Free Palestine is not controversial. It is expected. Where artists value their freedom of speech and collective liberation more than their brand deals. Look at what just happened in Europe. Three sold-out arenas. Tens of thousands of people from different backgrounds, religions and walks of life standing together. More than 40 artists and speakers putting their names and platforms behind Palestinian liberation. For all the attempts to paint this movement as one rooted in hatred, what filled those rooms was love. The tides are turning. Just three nights ago, Abdul El-Sayed won his Senate race on a platform that included ending the genocide in Gaza and stopping US arms sales to Israel. AIPAC spent $42 million trying to defeat him. And they still couldn't win. The trouble with buying power is believing you've bought the people too. The billionaires depend on our silence and complicity. They forget that we buy their tickets. We fill their arenas. We build their empires. And we have the power to bring them down. The people have spoken. We want an end to the genocide and we want a Free Palestine. The arenas have made their decision. Now we'll make ours. If they think the threat of never playing another arena in America will make me retreat into silence Macklemore said: There will be more shows for Palestine. We'll keep working with other artists and organizers, continuing where we left off in Europe. We'll probably just take that shit outside where it belonged in the first place. Our commitment to raising funds and standing in solidarity with the Palestinian people remains the same. Macklemore concluded: There comes a point when the world changes, not because those in power give us permission, but because the people stop asking for it. We will build our own stages. They may own the arenas. But they do not own the people who fill them. And they never will. FREE PALESTINE.
Inter Kashi are still searching for their first win of the season, while Sporting Club Delhi will look to build on their victory over Mumbai City FC.
Wanted Shami To Retire While Being In Test Team, But God Did Not Accept It: Laxmi Ratan Shukla
ICC World Test Championship: Bengal senior mens head coach Laxmi Ratan Shukla on Saturday said he and many others had hoped senior pacer Mohammed Shami would make a comeback to the Indian Test side and sign off from the red-ball format in national colours but lamented that it didnt happen as fate had other plans. Known for generating seam movement and swing with both the new and the old ball, Shami announced on Friday night that he was retiring from Tests. He signs off with 229 wickets from 64 Tests, including six five-wicket hauls, making him Indias sixth-highest wicket-taker among fast bowlers in Tests. Shami last played a Test match for India in the 2023 ICC World Test Championship final against Australia and never returned to play the longest format for India thereafter. Despite all of that, playing and practising for Bengal for the last two years in Ranji Trophy, Mushtaq Ali, and Vijay Hazare - I mean, you are the best, Shami. You are outstanding. We all wanted you to have a comeback in the Test team and retire from there. But God did not accept it. Despite that, you are the best, Shukla said in a video posted on his Instagram account. The former India all-rounder also said Shamis hunger for domestic cricket after a decorated international career had left a deep impression on him. Outstanding Mohammed Shami. A wonderful record in Test cricket for a wonderful player and human being. I would like to share one more thing with all of you that Mohammed Shami has put so much effort. I have not seen a fast bowler working so hard for domestic cricket games after playing so many international matches and taking many wickets in Tests, One-days and T20s, he said. Shami proved very valuable on overseas tours, where he picked up 145 wickets in 41 away Tests at an average of 30.33. At home, he was even more lethal, claiming 76 wickets at an average of 22.1. Shukla also took a trip down memory lane, recalling how Shami made a direct leap from the states U-23 setup to the Ranji Trophy. I remember the day when you came to our Bengal nets for U23 games. You played Ranji Trophy directly from there. Our selectors were there and I was the captain at that time. You played from there and I was the captain that time and now the coach here, he said. Noting that Shamis red-ball journey had come full circle with Bengal, Shukla added, You started with us in the red ball and now your Test match career ended with us. Our association is also very good. They have always supported you a lot. What you have done for Bengal is amazing. Mohammed Shami is and will always be a great inspiration. Love you, my brother. See you soon. Shami, though, will continue to feature in white-ball cricket. He has been included in Bengals 19-member squad for the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, which begins on November 14. Bengal will open its campaign against Karnataka in an Elite Group A fixture at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on November 14. Noting that Shamis red-ball journey had come full circle with Bengal, Shukla added, You started with us in the red ball and now your Test match career ended with us. Our association is also very good. They have always supported you a lot. What you have done for Bengal is amazing. Mohammed Shami is and will always be a great inspiration. Love you, my brother. See you soon. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

When the lockdown was imposed, many predicted the death of cinema halls, with some even going to the extent of writing obituaries for the theatrical exhibition business. However, cinemas bounced back with a bang, thanks to a steady stream of exciting films across languages that brought audiences back to the big screen. The year 2026 has been particularly remarkable, with several films recording impressive footfalls. One film that stands out is Dhurandhar The Revenge, produced by Jio Studios and B62 Studios.Its predecessor, Dhurandhar (2025), was an all-time grosser, and hence, expectations from the sequel were sky-high. While the film went on to create history at the box office, its success also had an unexpected and highly positive ripple effect: it provided several cinema halls with the much-needed cash flow to undertake renovations and technological upgrades. A trade source told Bollywood Hungama, Dhurandhar The Revenge was one of a kind blockbuster. The ticket rates for it were hiked considerably and yet, it didnt deter the audiences who flocked to the theatres in large numbers. Often, certain films do well only in single-screens or multiplexes. But Dhurandhar The Revenge pulled in crowds in every theatre in every part of the country. No wonder it collected more than Rs. 1000 crores just in India. The source continued, Thanks to Dhurandhar The Revenge, many theatres got enough cash flow that motivated them to renovate and revamp, so that their patrons can get a better experience. Many such theatres went for renovation around July-August. Some of them opened with Ramayana during Diwali while a few of them are expected to resume operations in a few weeks from now. Mumbai, in particular, has witnessed a significant wave of cinema upgrades this year. Several theatres, including Roxy, SunCity, Jai Hind in Lalbaug and Topiwala, temporarily shut their doors to undergo renovations. Meanwhile, the popular MovieTime Hub in Goregaon and MovieTime in Malad upgraded all their screens to laser projection, promising audiences a sharper and brighter viewing experience. As per trade circles, South Mumbais New Excelsior may also go for an upgrade. Earlier this week, MovieMax in Andheri East upgraded to 2K projection, enabling the property to screen 3D films as well as Hollywood releases. Interestingly, Ramayana became the first 3D film to be screened at this MovieMax property. SunCity, meanwhile, has taken things a notch higher by installing a Magnova LED screen, a Premium Large Format (PLF) cinema display system designed to deliver an enhanced visual experience. Introduced by UFO Cinema Solutions, the technology made its Indian debut at Magic Framez in Kochi in August this year. SunCity is believed to be the second cinema hall in the country to adopt this advanced display system. The upgradation drive is not restricted to independent theatres. On November 6, Mid-Day reported that PVR Inox Cinemas had upgraded as many as 150 screens across the country with 3D technology to accommodate additional 3D shows of Ramayana. The trade source, however, was quick to put things into perspective. We are not saying that Dhurandhar The Revenge was the only reason or that every theatre in the country got renovated due to money generated from Dhurandhar. But it definitely played a huge role in many of the theatres. No wonder 2026 saw record cinemas getting revamped. This is a positive step, as giving a premium cinema experience to the viewers is no longer a luxury. Its a necessity, so that viewers ditch consuming content at home and get motivated to step out and buy a ticket at their nearest theatre.

We've almost made it a ritual to travel somewhere together every Diwali. Whether it's a holiday or just spending quality time together, that's something we really look forward to. Amid a hectic schedule due to her profession, how does she make time for Diwali celebrations? Sometimes festivals coincide with work, and you learn to make the most of whatever time you have. This year is a working Diwali for me, but I genuinely enjoy being on set. It's my second family away from home. Hopefully, we'll find a little time to celebrate together. And my parents are always happy when I'm working, so I think they'll consider this an auspicious Diwali!

Annamalai urges people to buy more crackers for Diwali, cites livelihood of eight lakh workers
Digital Desk | Chennai, Nov 7 (IANS) We The Leaders President, K. Annamalai, has appealed to people across Tamil Nadu to celebrate Diwali by purchasing and bursting firecrackers in large quantities, saying the survival of thousands of families depends on the state's fireworks industry. In a video message released ahead of the festival, Annamalai urged people to support locally manufactured firecrackers, particularly those produced in Sivakasi, the country's major fireworks manufacturing hub in Virudhunagar district. He said the industry provides direct employment to nearly three lakh people and indirectly supports another five lakh workers, making it an important source of livelihood for approximately eight lakh people. When we buy firecrackers, we are helping someone put food on the table, he said, emphasising the economic significance of Diwali sales. Referring to concerns about air pollution, Annamalai acknowledged the importance of environmental protection but disagreed with the argument that firecrackers alone were responsible for pollution. He maintained that the firecracker industry should not be subjected to disproportionate restrictions while other sources of pollution continued to exist in the country. Annamalai concluded by urging families to visit neighbourhood shops with their children and purchase locally manufactured firecrackers. He said public support during Diwali was essential to protect the livelihoods of workers and ensure the continued survival of Tamil Nadu's traditional fireworks industry. Annamalai's message on the use of firecrackers came at a time when major metropolitans like Delhi, Mumbai, Gurugram and the National Capital Region including Noida and Ghaziabad in North India have been reeling under high levels of pollution. As the AQI touches nearly 400 in Delhi, and surrounding areas there have been calls to ban the use of firecrackers as the air quality that is already bad turns worse after Diwali and turns the region into a gas chamber. Amid the worsening pollution situation, the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) on Friday invoked Stage III of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) across Delhi-NCR as a precautionary measure, days ahead of Diwali.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Nov 7 (IANS) Actress Anju Mahendroo remembered legendary actor Sanjeev Kumar on his 88th birth anniversary on the early morning of Saturday by sharing a rare throwback picture of the two.
