Sri Lanka Cricket faces Rs 188 crore loss as ICC pulls women's event rights
Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) is facing an estimated revenue loss of USD 20 million (Rs 188 crore) after being stripped of the hosting rights for next year's inaugural ICC Women's Champions Trophy tournament. The tournament, originally slated to be hosted by Sri Lanka, has been relocated to India and will take place from February 14 to 28, 2027, with matches scheduled in Mumbai and Vadodara. There will certainly be a hosting fee paid to us. I believe it is around 2 million dollars. At the same time, the SLC would have to incur expenditure sprucing up places and getting the facilities up to scratch, Prakash Schaffter, SLC's transformation committee secretary, told reporters. While withdrawing the event from Sri Lanka, the ICC cited ongoing government interference and the absence of an elected administration at SLC. Last week the ICC announced its decision to move the six-nation tournament to India as Sri Lanka's current governing body revamp operation was not in line with the world ...
Nepal floods: Gujarat collects DNA samples of kin of 29 missing people
Digital Desk | Gandhinagar, Sep 10 (IANS) The Gujarat government has completed DNA sample collection from relatives of 29 of the 30 people from the state, including Non-Resident Gujaratis (NRGs), who remain missing or uncontactable following the August 26 flash floods in Nepal, particularly along the Nepal-Tibet border and Bhote Koshi River corridor. The samples are being processed for DNA profiling to help identify bodies and human remains recovered in the disaster. The process for the remaining missing person is also underway. The Gujarat State Non-Resident Gujaratis Foundation (NRGF), under the NRI Division of the General Administration Department, has been coordinating with the families and authorities in India and abroad to facilitate the DNA collection and identification process. The initiative is being carried out in accordance with guidelines issued by the Central government, under which designated forensic laboratories have been identified for DNA sample collection and profiling of first-degree relatives of missing persons. DNA profiling at laboratories designated for the purpose is being undertaken free of cost, as directed by Union Home Minister Amit Shah. Six designated laboratories in Gujarat are facilitating the process, with DNA profiling being undertaken in Gandhinagar, Ahmedabad, Surat, Vadodara, Junagadh and Rajkot. The National Forensic Sciences University (NFSU) in Gandhinagar, is coordinating with the Ministry of External Affairs on DNA profiling of samples collected in India and their linkage with the identification process in Nepal. A 10-member NFSU forensic team has also been involved in the identification efforts in Nepal. Nepal Police has separately initiated DNA profiling of recovered bodies and human remains following the incident. NRGF has been personally contacting relatives of each missing person and guiding them about the designated laboratories, available facilities and the procedure for DNA sample collection and profiling. It has also been coordinating with NRGs and relatives living abroad to ascertain the action taken by local authorities in their respective countries. In cases involving relatives in New Zealand, the United States, Canada and African countries, NRGF has obtained information about DNA samples collected by authorities in those countries and the status of the identification process. In several cases, samples of relatives living abroad have already been collected through the respective local authorities. The DNA profiling reports are being sent directly by the designated laboratories to Nepalese authorities through the official email addresses and contact numbers notified by the them for the identification exercise. Nepal Police has also requested first-degree relatives of missing people living abroad to undergo DNA profiling at authorised forensic laboratories in their respective countries. The Gujarat Government, through the State Emergency Operations Centre (SEOC), district administrations and NRGF, has been coordinating efforts to trace people from the state and Gujaratis living abroad who were reported missing or remain uncontactable after the floods. A consolidated list of missing and untraceable persons prepared by SEOC and NRGF has also been shared with the Nepal government. So far, 30 people, including NRGs, remain untraceable from the flood-affected areas. Those reported missing or out of contact include people from Ahmedabad, Anand, Banaskantha, Kheda, Gandhinagar, Surat, Valsad, Rajkot and other parts of Gujarat. Several had travelled to Nepal for the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra through different travel agencies and routes. The scale of the disaster has made conventional identification difficult in cases where bodies or human remains have been severely damaged or recovered in parts. Nepal has therefore begun a large-scale DNA identification exercise, with samples being collected from relatives and compared with DNA obtained from recovered remains. The DNA-based process is expected to help establish the identities of victims from Gujarat and other parts of India, as well as foreign nationals, and provide families with confirmation about the fate of relatives who remain missing.

Jhooth ki goonj: PM Modis dig at Rahul Gandhis outreach campaign in Vadodara
Digital Desk | Vadodara, Sep 8 (IANS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday took a swipe at the political opponents while explaining the wider economic benefits of the Dedicated Freight Corridor. He used the phrase naraz fufa ji (literal meaning annoyed uncle) to dismiss an imagined objection that faster freight trains could hurt truck operators. While describing the operation of a double-stack container freight train between JNT Port in Mumbai and Vadodara, PM Modi said one such train could carry cargo equivalent to more than 250 trucks. The annoyed uncle will shout: what will happen to the truck operators? Where will the trucks go? What will happen to those who bought trucks? PM Modi said, referring to the critics as naraz fufa ji. His broader point was that rail freight would not eliminate road transport but would allow large volumes of goods to move rapidly across the country, while trucks could continue to perform other transport functions. The Prime Minister presented the freight corridor as an addition to Indias logistics capacity rather than a replacement for existing modes of transportation. The remarks came as PM Modi dedicated the final key sections of the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor in Vadodara, completing the Dedicated Freight Corridor network. The three sections cover 326 route kilometres and were developed at a cost of more than Rs 20,700 crore. The completed network is intended to separate freight and passenger traffic, increase cargo capacity and reduce transit times. The Prime Minister used another political formulation in his speech, contrasting what he called misleading claims with his government's presentation of development figures. There are people at every crossroads who can mislead you with jooth ki goonj (echo of lies). But Indias youth move with the sach ki hunkar (call of truth) and they move for the call of truth, he asserted. The remarks were made while discussing Indias expansion in renewable energy and emerging technologies. The country is focusing on solar, wind, hydro and nuclear energy because future industries such as semiconductor manufacturing, data centres and artificial intelligence would require large amounts of reliable electricity, he noted. He said India has developed more than 200 GW of solar module manufacturing capacity and referred to the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, saying 55 lakh families across the country have installed rooftop solar systems, including 11 lakh families in Gujarat. PM Modi linked the growth of renewable energy with employment, saying the expansion had created opportunities in production, installation and servicing and had brought new vendors into the market. He also said India is working to secure supplies of uranium, critical minerals and rare-earth minerals through international agreements, describing the effort as part of preparations for the future of young Indians. The Prime Minister then shifted to skills and artificial intelligence, saying the changing economy required young people to acquire skills alongside formal degrees. He noted that the government is moving towards providing free online coaching for students preparing for competitive examinations, with teaching from what he described as he countrys best teachers. He also said a major government campaign would be launched to prepare young people for artificial intelligence. AI skills would not be limited to the IT sector and could be applied in agriculture, healthcare, manufacturing and robotics, he said. Indias youth must become proficient in AI, he added, noting that young people could use the technology to develop agricultural solutions, healthcare applications, manufacturing improvements and robotics start-ups. The Vadodara programme involved projects worth more than Rs 35,000 crore across railways, highways, housing, water supply, urban development and renewable energy. Three WDFC sections were dedicated to the nation, while new rail services were flagged off and foundations laid for additional railway and highway projects.

'Naraz Fufa ji' now has work, says Modi after inaugurating freight corridor
Vadodara, Sep 08: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday slammed those who question his governments development record, once again calling them as Naraz Fufa (angry uncle). Speaking at the NaMo for Viksit Bharat programme in Gujarats Vadodara, where he inaugurated and laid the foundation stones for Rs 35,000 crore development projects, Modi said the country's work culture has transformed over the last 12 years after the BJP came to power. The projects include a 2,800-kilometre dedicated freight corridor, which Modi called a historic achievement for the 21st century. Taking a swipe at those who would question the utility of the corridor project, Modi said, One Naraz Fufa ji will say: What will the truck drivers do? Naraz Fufa now has work, he said, without naming Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. After 2014, India built 50,000 modern rail coaches but the previous (Congress) regime could not build even 50,000 toilets in 10 years, Modi said. Modi inaugurated three key sections of the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor, connecting Jawaharlal Nehru Port in Navi Mumbai with Dadri in Uttar Pradesh, marking completion of the project. Dedicated freight corridors are the lifeline of a fast-developing India. Indias transformation is accelerating because of this modern freight network, Modi said. Earlier, passenger and goods trains had to run on the same tracks, slowing down both passenger travel and freight movement but the Dedicated Freight Corridor has changed this, he said. After 2014, with your blessings, when I reached Delhi, and as soon as we arrived there, we began accelerating this project. Work on the 2,800 km dedicated freight corridors has been completed today, he said. Today, the Eastern and Western Freight Corridors are becoming the main backbone of the country's trade and business, Modi said. The 2,800-km long Dedicated Freight Corridor a testament to how the country's work culture has transformed over the past 12 years, Modi said. The idea for this Dedicated Freight Corridor began in 2004. In 2006, a special company was established to carry out this work, and until 2014, files just kept shuffling from one place to another. Unfortunately, even these files weren't fortunate enough to get a dedicated corridor. The files would get stuck, hang around and wander aimlessly, Modi said. Modi took a swipe at Rahul Gandhi's 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' initiative, saying youngsters would stand with the truth and not be misled by what he termed Jhooth ki Goonj (echo of lies). At every nook and corner, you will find people who will try to mislead you through 'Jooth Ki Goonj', but today's youth will stand with the truth, the PM said. 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' is a student-dialogue campaign launched by the Congress, under which programmes are being organised in various cities across the country. Through the campaign, the Opposition party is attempting to corner the ruling BJP on issues such as exam question paper leaks, costly education, irregularities in government recruitment and unemployment. The prime minister said the youth could see how focused the government was on working across sectors, including solar, wind, hydro and nuclear energy. Modi also urged the youth to develop expertise in Artificial Intelligence (AI). The youth of the country have to become experts in AI, and we want our youth to excel in the field, he added. Modi flagged off freight train services from New Sanand, New Makarpura, New Umbergaon and New JNPT in Navi Mumbai. He also flagged off a passenger train service between Tanda Road and Vadodara.

A key highlight of the programme is the dedication of three sections of the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor (WDFC), covering 326 route kilometres and developed at a cost of more than Rs 20,700 crore. The sections are Sanand (North)-Makarpura, New Umbergaon-New Saphale, and New Saphale-Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA). The commissioning of these sections marks the completion of the WDFC across its entire length. The corridor will provide direct freight connectivity to JNPA, facilitating the movement of export-import cargo between industrial centres and the port while helping reduce transit time and logistics costs and easing congestion on Mumbais railway network. PM Modi will also flag off freight train services from New Sanand (North), New Makarpura, New Umbergaon, and New JNPT, Mumbai. A new passenger train service between Vadodara and Tanda Road will also be flagged off, benefiting people in Vadodara, Chhota Udepur, and Alirajpur districts. The Prime Minister will dedicate the Jobat-Tanda Road new railway line, developed as part of the Chhota Udepur-Dhar project, connecting remote and tribal areas of Alirajpur with the national rail network. Three railway projects spanning 329 km and costing more than Rs 9,700 crore will also have their foundation stones laid. These include the third and fourth lines between Vadodara and Ratlam, gauge conversion of the Miyagam Karjan-Choranda-Malsar section, and doubling of the Vishwamitri-Dabhoi section. On the road network, foundation stones will be laid for three National Highway projects costing around Rs 1,780 crore. The projects include six-laning of the Kamrej-Chalthan section of NH-48, additional structures including major bridges over the Tapi and Narmada on the Vadodara-Surat section of NH-48, and grade-separated structures at Abhava, Mindhola, and Khajod junctions on NH-53.
