NCP cadre demoralised over Pune Graduates seat loss: Praful Patel
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 7 (IANS) Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) national working president Praful Patel on Wednesday said it was demoralising for party workers across five districts, particularly in western Maharashtra, that the party did not retain the Pune Graduates Constituency for the Legislative Council election scheduled for October 23. Patel made the remarks a day after Maharashtra NCP president and Lok Sabha MP Sunil Tatkare termed the party's failure to secure the Pune Graduates Constituency within the ruling Mahayuti alliance a collective failure. It is certainly demoralising for our cadre in the five districts under which the Pune Graduates Constituency falls. The seat was with us, and we had won it on our symbol in the previous election, Patel said when asked about the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) contesting the seat instead of the NCP. Patel said the decision was finalised in a meeting involving Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and the two Deputy Chief Ministers, Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar. But now that the decision has been made, it will be contested as a Mahayuti seat, he said. Patel's remarks come amid claims by party sources that no prior meeting was held with senior NCP leaders before discussions on the matter took place. Party sources also pointed to the example of Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, who, despite the BJP announcing its candidate for the Pune Teachers' Constituency, allotted a ticket to Mangesh Chivate. According to a senior party leader, speaking on condition of anonymity, several leaders had suggested that the NCP should avoid making any commitment regarding the Pune Graduates seat as it previously belonged to the party. The leader claimed that negotiations involved only a limited number of leaders before the decision was finalised. The source further said that Shinde had fielded his party worker despite pressure from the BJP and had kept the window for negotiations open. On Tuesday, NCP state president Sunil Tatkare termed the development a collective failure. The Pune Graduates Constituency seat rightly belonged to the Nationalist Congress Party. However, it is a fact that the party did not get this seat. We must have fallen short somewhere, and this must be considered a collective failure, Tatkare had said on the last day for filing nominations for the Council elections. United NCP's Arun Lad had won the seat on the Clock symbol six years ago. His son, Sharad Lad, later joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and was reportedly interested in contesting the seat. The BJP ultimately secured the seat and fielded Smita Jadhav as its candidate. Meanwhile, senior BJP leader and Higher and Technical Education Minister Chandrakant Patil has been appointed the overall campaign chief for the Mahayuti alliance for both the Pune Graduates and Pune Teachers constituencies. As far as the Maha Vikas Aghadi is concerned, its leaders, including Congress leader Satej Patil, are seeking to capitalise on cross-party rebellions within the Mahayuti to rally graduate voters across the Pune division, comprising Pune, Satara, Sangli, Solapur and Kolhapur districts. The Sharad Pawar-led NCP faction issued AB forms to both Pradeep Mane and Harshada Deshmukh-Jadhav ahead of the final nomination deadline as a tactical move.

Phonsok Ladakhi named Ladakhs road safety ambassador
Srinagar, Oct 5:The Ladakh administration has appointed veteran actor, musician and social advocate Phonsok Ladakhi as the Union Territorys Road Safety Ambassador to promote traffic discipline and road safety across the high-altitude region. An order issued by the Regional Transport Office (RTO), Ladakh, said the appointment was made to strengthen road safety awareness and give a strong local identity to road safety initiatives in the Union Territory. Ladakhi is the first Bollywood actor from Ladakh and an alumnus of the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune. He is also an actor, singer, lyricist and composer and has worked in Indian films, television and theatre. The order described him as a prominent citizen of Ladakh with wide public acceptance and strong connections in the film industry. The appointment is purely honorary in nature, the order said, adding that Ladakhi will support the Transport Department and RTO in spreading road safety awareness through public messages, campaigns, media outreach and other suitable activities. He may also use his public goodwill and media presence to promote road safety initiatives in the larger public interest, it said. The RTO will coordinate with the road safety ambassador for effective utilisation of his services in ongoing and future road safety programmes. The appointment comes amid expanding road infrastructure, increasing local vehicular traffic and a continuous influx of tourist vehicles in Ladakh, making traffic management and road safety key concerns for the Union Territory. Officials said road safety in Ladakhs challenging terrain requires not only enforcement but also a culture of caution and respect for mountain driving norms. Road safety in a terrain as challenging as Ladakh demands not just strict enforcement, but a genuine culture of caution and respect for mountain driving norms, officials said. They said Ladakhis public reach across generations would help take road safety messages directly to people. As ambassador, Ladakhi will work with the Ladakh Transport Department, traffic police and civil society organisations to support targeted road safety awareness campaigns. Ladakhi trained in classical acting at FTII and went on to represent the Trans-Himalayan region in mainstream Indian cinema, television and theatre. He has also emerged as a cultural figure and advocate for social causes in Ladakh.

What to Do When Your ID Shows a City You No Longer Live In
Your Aadhaar still shows your parents' address in the town you grew up in. You've been living in Pune for three years, renting a flat, working a steady job. Now you need a loan, and the application wants address proof you don't quite have in the right form. It's one of the most common paperwork snags in India, affecting almost anyone who moved for work, and it's far more fixable than it looks at first. Why the Mismatch Happens So Often Most people's official documents were created before they moved. Aadhaar, PAN and passport tend to carry the address of wherever you lived when you applied for them, usually a family home. Updating them takes effort that never quite reaches the top of the list, especially when everyday life doesn't require it. Then a loan application asks for proof of where you actually live, and the gap suddenly matters. Lenders see this constantly, which is precisely why the process accommodates it rather than treating it as a red flag. Do Lenders Actually Reject You for This? Rarely, on its own. A mismatch between your document address and your current city is an administrative issue, not a creditworthiness issue, and lenders assess it that way. What causes problems is failing to address the gap at all, or submitting paperwork that contradicts itself without explanation. Provide proof of where you live now alongside your existing documents and most applications proceed normally. It's worth reviewing a lender's personal loan eligibility requirements beforehand, since a few also have rules about which cities they serve, which is a separate consideration from your paperwork. Permanent Address and Current Address Are Different Things This distinction solves most of the confusion. Application forms usually ask for both a permanent address and a current or correspondence address, and they're not expected to match. Your permanent address is the one on your identity documents, typically your family home. Your current address is where you actually live and receive post. Filling in both honestly is the correct approach, not a workaround. The lender then verifies the current address separately, which is what the additional documents are for. Verification may also involve a phone call or, less commonly now, a visit, so make sure the contact details you give match the address you've declared. What Counts as Current Address Proof? Several documents can establish where you live now: - A rent agreement in your name, which many lenders prefer to be registered or notarised rather than a plain signed copy. - A utility bill in your name, such as electricity, gas or a postpaid phone connection, usually from the last few months. - A bank statement showing your current address, particularly from an account where you've already updated it. - A letter from your employer confirming your residential address, which carries weight for salaried applicants. - Your passport, if it was issued or updated after you moved. The practical difficulty is that renters often have none of these in their own name, since utilities frequently stay with the landlord. If that's your situation, a registered rent agreement combined with an employer letter is usually the strongest pairing available to you. Those sharing a flat where the agreement is in a flatmate's name face a harder version of the same problem, and asking to be named on the agreement at renewal is worth the small effort. Updating Aadhaar as a Longer-Term Fix Worth doing regardless of the loan. Aadhaar allows an address update, and once it reflects your current city, the mismatch disappears for every future application, not just this one. The update generally requires a supporting document such as a rent agreement or utility bill, and it takes some time to process, so it won't help if you need funds this week. Think of it as removing a recurring obstacle rather than solving today's problem. The same applies to updating the address on your bank account, which is usually quicker and makes your statements immediately useful as proof. What Should You Do Before Applying? A little preparation saves considerable back and forth. Gather whatever current address evidence you have and check the dates, since utility bills and statements are often required to be recent. Confirm with the lender which documents they accept for a current address, because the list varies and it's a two-minute question that prevents a rejected submission. Fill in both addresses on the form rather than leaving one blank or entering the same one twice. Above all, be accurate: submitting an address you don't actually live at creates a KYC problem far more serious than the inconvenience you were trying to avoid. The documents for personal loan applications are straightforward once you know which combination your lender wants. The Bottom Line An address that doesn't match your current city is ordinary, expected, and something lenders handle every day. Declare both your permanent and current addresses honestly, back the current one with a rent agreement, utility bill, bank statement or employer letter, and check in advance what your lender accepts. Then update your Aadhaar and bank records when you have a spare afternoon, so the next application doesn't raise the question at all.
