It was here when his sister Arpita Khan Sharma noticed that he was seemingly rotating the aarti thali in the wrong direction and promptly corrected him.

Ganeshotsav effect: Salman Khan appears in playful mood with paparazzi
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 16 (IANS) Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, who often interacts with the media with a straight face, appeared to be in a cheerful mood. The actor attended the ganpati visarjan at his brother Sohail Khans house in the Bandra west area of the city. As the actor prepared to take part in the visarjan, he got down from his car, and posed for the paparazzi stationed at the venue. The actor donned a head gear yet again as he walked towards his mark. Suddenly, he exchanged glances with one of the paparazzi, and smiled before he giggled. The actor then walked towards the interior of the venue, and also greeted a child and their parents. Elsewhere during the ceremony, the actor was seen performing the aarti in the wrong direction until he was told by his sister Arpita Khan to fix his mistake. Salman Khan and his family are known for celebrating Ganeshotsav with a lot of enthusiasm courtesy the muli-faith culture in their home. Every year, his family welcomes Lord Ganesha into their home, with Salman participating in the prayers, aarti and festivities with characteristic warmth. What makes these celebrations especially meaningful is the multi-faith spirit of the Khan household. Salmans father, screenwriter Salim Khan, is Muslim, while his mother, Sushila Charak (Salma Khan), was born into a Hindu family; his stepmother, Helen, is Christian. The family has long embraced different religious traditions without treating faith as a barrier. Their Ganpati celebrations therefore feel less like a celebrity spectacle and more like a reflection of Indias pluralistic culture, where devotion, family and shared traditions can comfortably coexist. For Salman, the festivities have become a cherished annual ritual, celebrated with relatives, friends and generations of Bollywood personalities.
In Maharashtra's Gadchiroli, farmers' output and income see a spike due to PM-KUSUM scheme
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 16 (IANS) Ashok Karade, a progressive farmer from Korchi tehsil in Maharashtra's Gadchiroli, has witnessed significant transformation in his farming operations -- he is growing two crops a year and his agricultural yield has seen a sharp increase, as compared to earlier. Explaining the reasons behind the change in fate, Karade said that he previously relied on rainfall and could harvest only one crop a year. Despite having a proper electricity connection, irrigating his fields was a major challenge due to the erratic power supply. Speaking to IANS, Karade explained the benefits of PM-KUSUM scheme (Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthan Mahabhiyan). He informed that he received a complete kit for his farm which included a 3 HP solar motor, solar panels, and a borehole. Since the installation of solar pumps, he no longer worries about power outages and irrigates his fields using solar energy, which has boosted his farm's crop production capacity. He also noted that the availability of solar pumps has enabled him to cultivate second crop in his field. Additionally, the solar energy has brought relief from electricity bills. Ashok Karade's earnings from the agriculture has also increased over a period of time, thereby increasing the economic viability of his farming practices. Previously, his income was limited but has crossed more than Rs 3.5 lakh a year. Alongside paddy cultivation, he is also growing fruit-bearing and other trees on his farm. Having taken the lead in benefitting from the Central welfare scheme, Ashok Karade is also entreating his fellow villagers to take benefits of government-sponsored program. He urged farmers in Korchi tehsil to seek information regarding the scheme's eligibility and availability to avail of its benefits and make their farming operations more self-reliant in terms of irrigation. The installation of solar panels and borewells has ensured a steady water supply for irrigation. The solar panels have eliminated the burden of electricity bills, and dependence on weather conditions or the power grid for watering crops is now a thing of the past. He also noted that availing the scheme's benefits was a hassle-free process. We simply had to submit the necessary documents at the time of application and pay a fee of around Rs 11,000. Subsequently, the department conducted a land survey, and the solar panels were installed shortly thereafter. I cultivate paddy on five acres of my eight-acre landholding. On the remaining land, I grow fruits; the orchard features about six different varieties of mango trees, he said. Notably, the PM KUSUM scheme was launched in 2019, with an objective of providing energy and water security to farmers, enhance their income, de-dieselise the farm sector and reduce environmental pollution. PM-KUSUM enables farmers to harness solar energy both for irrigation and power generation. Under the scheme, farmers install solar pumps for irrigation and have also options to sell surplus electricity to distribution companies.

Our evidence similar to 'death nail', says celebrity manager Disha Salian's lawyer
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 16 (IANS) Advocate Nilesh Ojha, the lawyer representing Disha Salian's father Satish Salian, has claimed that the evidence which the legal team will be handing over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), will be similar to death nail for those named in the FIR. On Monday, the CBI registered an FIR in connection with the death of Disha, former manager of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, following an order of the Bombay High Court. Speaking to IANS, Nilesh Ojha on Tuesday said: The evidence we will submit tomorrow (Wednesday) along with the covering letter is against Aaditya Thackeray and the others. The CBI has even more evidence, but this evidence is like the 'death nail'. He also noted: This also includes something related to late actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Moreover, the lawyer said: 80 per cent of our work in this case has already been done through the High Court order. The High Court order itself lists ten points that proves the police report to be incorrect and makes it clear that this is not a case of suicide, but of foul play. The rest of the details were given by Disha's father Satish Salian ji which is registered in the FIR. Additionally, it includes eyewitness testimony and the extra judicial confession of former Mumbai Police officer Sachin Waze and several other things, he added. Earlier on Tuesday, Satish Salian said that he is fully confident about the CBI's probe into his daughter's death case and said that he will be happy only when the accused are hanged. I am at peace that the case has been registered, though I will be happy only when the accused are punished. Aaditya Thackeray, Sooraj Pancholi, Dino Morea, their bodyguards and others should be hanged, he told IANS. Reiterating his previous allegation that Mumbai's mighty and privileged people conspired to cover-up the whole incident, Satish Salian said that he named former Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh and Sachin Waze in the case as they were the ones who shielded the others.

'Imprisonment for years without trail is injustice': AIMIM's Waris Pathan on Umar Khalid
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 15 (IANS) AIMIM national spokesperson Waris Pathan on Tuesday said that keeping imprisoned activist Umar Khalid in jail for years without trail is injustice and that he should be provided an opportunity to defend himself. Pathan's reaction comes after Karnataka Congress Chief B.K. Hariprasad called imprisoned activist Umar Khalid a ationalist earlier in the day, and criticised the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) for opposing a proposed documentary screening of the student activist at the National Law School of India University (NLSIU) in Bengaluru. Speaking to IANS, the AIMIM said: I dont know what he said. I am a lawyer, and the law says, Bail is the rule, jail is the exception. You cannot keep anyone in jail for years without a trial. This is like conviction before trial. They (Khalid and co-accused Sharjeel Imam) have been in jail for six years. They were unhappy with the governments policies, so they raised their voices. Defending Khalid, he said: One can watch the videos to know if they said something wrong...Despite repeated hearings, they are not granted bail. As a lawyer, I can say that keeping them in jail for more than six years now without trial is injustice. Let the trial begin; allow them to produce evidence before the court, and a decision will be pronounced...He (Khalid) is not given an opportunity to prove anything...this is punishment in itself, he added. Somewhere it seems that since he is a Muslim, he is being denied bail, Pathan claimed. Meanwhile, the AIMIM leader also spoke regarding the Disha Salian death case, urging people to refrain from politicising the issue. There is no need to politicise this matter. This is about a father who has been fighting for justice for his daughter for six years...now the case has been handed over to the CBI on the High Court's order and an FIR has been registered. Now, justice should prevail. Further, on Pakistan increasing the reward to PKR 70 lakh for information about Jaish-e-Mohammed chief Masood Azhar, Waris Pathan referred to the Islamic Republic as he root of terrorism. Terrorism originates from there. India has suffered from its terrorist activities. We have seen Pulwama, 26/11 and Pahalgam, where terrorists from Pakistan came to India and killed tourists after asking their names and religion...We want the Modi government to again take action against them like Operation Sindoor, bring them here and give them death penalty to end terrorism, he stated.

My love has no conditions, and no distance can change it. You carry your schoolbags today, my loves. Mummy carries you in every heartbeat, she signed off.

Demand is unexpectedly large: NSE CEO on IPO interest
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 15 (IANS) The proposed initial public offering (IPO) of the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) has received unexpectedly strong investor interest, with demand significantly exceeding the number of shares available for allocation, NSE Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Ashishkumar Chauhan said on Tuesday. Chauhan said the exchange was witnessing substantial demand from investors, although he did not provide a breakup between domestic institutional investors (DIIs) and foreign portfolio investors (FPIs), as the allocation process was still in progress. He said the anchor portion of the issue, earlier expected to be around Rs 9,000 crore, had been brought down to over Rs 6,000 crore even as overall investor interest remained considerably higher. Demand is unexpectedly large, Chauhan said, pointing to the strong interest from a large pool of investors looking to acquire a relatively limited number of NSE shares. The allocation will be carried out across various institutional investor categories, including domestic mutual funds, other domestic institutions and FPIs, in line with the applicable regulatory framework. The NSE IPO will open for subscription on September 17 and remain open until September 21. The price band has been set at Rs 1,700-1,785 per share. The issue is entirely an offer for sale (OFS), under which existing shareholders will sell up to 12.64 crore shares. NSE itself will not issue any fresh shares through the IPO. Chauhan said the size of the offer had been reduced from the earlier proposed 6.2 per cent stake to 5.11 per cent after some existing shareholders were initially hesitant to sell their holdings at the proposed valuation. NSE subsequently approached certain shareholders to participate in the OFS to meet the requirements for listing. According to Chauhan, the listing will give existing shareholders a more transparent and liquid mechanism to sell their holdings. NSE shares are currently traded in the private market, where transactions can involve higher costs and challenges related to finding suitable counterparties. The shares are proposed to be listed on the BSE, according to NSE's IPO note. On the pricing of the issue, Chauhan said NSE's investment bankers had sought feedback from investors in both India and overseas markets, including large institutional investors, mutual funds, pension funds and retail participants. The pricing discussions also considered the need to ensure that retail investors had an opportunity to participate in the offering. There was feedback to leave something for retail investors, Chauhan said.
