THE MEMBERS OF Parliament of the INDIA Janbandhan (Peoples Alliance) representing over 60% of the population of India and citizens assembled in New Delhi on October 31, 2026, affirming their firmest commitment to universal adult franchise as enshrined in Article 326 of the Constitution of India that is under the gravest threat by the actions of the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC), Mr. Gyanesh Kumar, hereby resolve that he be impeached on the following charges: Charge I : The Chief Election Commissioner, Mr. Gyanesh Kumar, has overseen and participated in a devious and malevolent criminal conspiracy orchestrated by the BJP to steal National and State elections. He has willingly broken the rule of law by allowing them to access voter rolls, to delete and add voters at will and manipulate the outcome of the elections. He is guilty of operationalizing a premeditated attack on the electoral process that is the very foundation of Indias democracy. This is a criminal act and an act of treason against the nation and the Constitution of India. Charge II: The Chief Election Commissioner, Mr. Gyanesh Kumar, is directly responsible for a manipulated, truncated and destructive Special Intensive Revision of the Electoral Rolls. He has ensured the intentional deletion of 13.2 crore voters, depriving them of the fundamental right to vote guaranteed to them by the Constitution of India, in a manner that is partisan, opaque and flagrantly violative of natural justice. This is a criminal act and an act of treason against the nation and the Constitution of India. Charge III : The Chief Election Commissioner, Mr. Gyanesh Kumar, is guilty of illegally, without Parliamentary oversight or knowledge, having amended Form 6 of the Registration of Electors Rules, 1960, thereby entering into a criminal conspiracy to prevent the enrollment of first-time voters and stealing from them the fundamental right to vote guaranteed by the Constitution of India effectively negating their rights as citizens of India. This is an act of treason against the nation and the Constitution of India. Charge IV : The Chief Election Commissioner, Mr. Gyanesh Kumar, is guilty of illegally centralizing control over the electoral rolls in the ECI, through the malicious use of the ERONET/ECINET software, with the aim to delete voters and to prevent local EROs from adding legitimate voters. This is a criminal attempt to tamper with the process of free and fair elections upon which the democratic framework of India is founded. It is an act of treason against the nation and the Constitution of India. Charge V : The Chief Election Commissioner, Mr. Gyanesh Kumar, is guilty of having willfully violated the law along with seven associates in the Election Commission of India while deliberately and unlawfully excluding the other two Election Commissioners from decision making, prompting them to place no less than 14 objections on record. This is a clear infringement of the mandate of the Election Commission as laid down by the Constitution of India and an act of treason against the nation and the Constitution of India. Charge VI : The Chief Election Commissioner, Mr. Gyanesh Kumar, has breached his constitutional mandate to act in an independent capacity to ensure free and fair elections and uphold the Constitution of India. He has repeatedly attacked the opposition, denied it hearing, locked the Election Commission of India to prevent leaders from pleading their case and watched in silence as opposition leaders were illegally disqualified, prevented from fighting elections and brutally assaulted on the streets outside his office. In return for this shameful compliance with the ruling BJP, several of Mr. Gyanesh Kumars family members have received benefits and considerations including by way of plum postings and unprecedented opportunities for remuneration. By acting brazenly against his constitutional mandate at the behest of the Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra Modi and Home Minister, Mr. Amit Shah, Mr. Gyanesh Kumar has betrayed the trust and faith of the Indian people. He has willfully undermined the rule of law and participated in a criminal conspiracy to manipulate and falsify the results of democratically held elections that are the bedrock of Indias democracy. These are acts of treason against the nation and the Constitution of India. In the light of the above facts, it is clear that lifelong legal protection provided to the Chief Election Commissioner Mr. Gyanesh Kumar by Prime Minister Narendra Modis government in December 2023, were intended as a cover for the criminal activities enacted by him against the nation and the Constitution of India and that he must be removed forthwith. The Members of Parliament of the INDIA Janbandhan representing over 60% of the population of India and citizens assembled in New Delhi on October 31, 2026, resolve that for this gross betrayal of the people of India the Chief Election Commissioner Mr. Gyanesh Kumar, must be tried for treason in a court of law in accordance with the legal framework of the Constitution of India.

Cybercrime, drugs among J&Ks biggest challenges: IGP Kashmir
Srinagar, Oct 31: Inspector General of Police (IGP) Kashmir Sujit Kumar on Saturday identified cybercrime and the growing drug menace among the biggest challenges confronting Jammu and Kashmir, asserting that the police were prepared to tackle emerging threats while safeguarding national unity and security. Speaking to reporters at the historic Ghanta Ghar in Lal Chowk on the sidelines of Rashtriya Ekta Diwas celebrations, the IGP said the nature of challenges facing law enforcement agencies was evolving, with cybercrime and narcotics emerging as major areas of concern. Cybercrime is one of the biggest challenges, both today and in the coming days. Along with the drug menace, there are other activities directed against our country, and Jammu and Kashmir is looking at these challenges from a new perspective, Kumar said. He said the police would elaborate separately on the measures being undertaken to address these concerns, stressing that the occasion was dedicated to celebrating national unity and integrity. The Kashmir Police chiefs remarks came as security forces, police personnel, students and young people gathered at Lal Chowk to participate in National Unity Day celebrations marking the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. Describing Lal Chowk as a historic witness to the celebrations, Kumar said the gathering had provided an opportunity for people in Kashmir to join the nationwide observance of Rashtriya Ekta Diwas. Today, we celebrated Ekta Diwas at historic Lal Chowk. We witnessed the live broadcast of the Ekta Diwas parade from Kevadia in Gujarat, where the Prime Minister addressed the nation, he said. The IGP said Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, personnel from Jammu and Kashmir Police and Central Armed Police Forces, schoolchildren and Kashmiri youth participated in the programme and listened to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's address. Referring to the Prime Minister's message, Kumar said the occasion had reinforced the responsibility of citizens and security agencies to protect the country's unity and integrity. The Prime Minister has given us the responsibility of safeguarding the unity and integrity of the country. Whatever challenges come before the police and security forces in the coming days, we are prepared to face them, he said. Asked specifically about the growing threat of cybercrime and the steps being taken to counter it, the IGP acknowledged the seriousness of the challenge but said a detailed discussion on the issue would be held separately. He also referred to the narcotics problem and activities threatening national security, indicating that the police were approaching these challenges with renewed focus. Kumar, however, emphasised that the immediate significance of the day lay in celebrating the country's unity and collective commitment to national integrity. Today is the day of national unity, the day of the country's togetherness. We should celebrate it. I extend my greetings to everyone on National Unity Day, he said.

Following the news, several Bollywood personalities and colleagues took to social media to express their grief and remember the director, whose distinct visual style and contribution to crime thrillers earned him a place in Hindi cinema. Filmmaker Hansal Mehta penned a poignant tribute, reflecting on his enduring bond with Gupta and their shared journey through the highs and lows of the industry. Actors Kajol, Raveena Tandon, Dia Mirza, Manisha Koirala, and Anupam Kher also mourned his loss, remembering a passionate storyteller with a distinctive cinematic vision.

You had many more films and many years to go. Prayers and strength to the family. kunal kohli (@kunalkohli) October 31, 2026 Will always miss you, Sanjay bhai. The memories of our time together on the sets will always stay close to my heart. https://t.co/elnUQqDBaH sonu sood (@SonuSood) October 31, 2026 Deeply saddened and shocked by the untimely demise of Sanjay Gupta Sir, a powerhouse filmmaker we all loved and respected. Gone far too soon. My heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones. Om Shanti. https://t.co/zQjgK021EM Neil Nitin Mukesh (@NeilNMukesh) October 31, 2026 Dia Mirza went on to add a long post for the filmmaker which read, He is so alive in my memories today. Its difficult to comprehend that he is no longer with us. Sanjay Gupta was a passionate filmmaker, an encyclopaedia of cinema, one of the most well-read, effortlessly stylish and deeply knowledgeable filmmakers I have known. I had the privilege of working with him on Dus Kahaniyaan, Shootout at Lokhandwala, Acid Factory, and another very special film inspired by the book Tuesdays with Morrie, which sadly never saw the light of day. I remember his extraordinary knowledge of cinema, his passion for storytelling and the sheer joy with which he spoke about films. But perhaps one of his greatest legacies will be the opportunities he created for so many young and emerging filmmakers. He believed in giving new voices a chance to tell their stories. Many of those he encouraged and empowered have gone on to become celebrated filmmakers themselves. What a beautiful legacy to leave behind. To not just tell stories, but to make it possible for so many others to tell theirs. The news of his passing has left us all shaken. How does one reconcile the memory of someone so vividly alive with the knowledge that they are suddenly gone? My heart goes out to Anu, their children, his family and everyone who loved him. May God give them the strength to bear this unimaginable loss. Rest in peace, Sanjay. Your stories, your generosity and the lives you touched will continue to carry a part of you forward. Om Shanti. Gupta was known for films such as Aatish: Feel the Fire, Kaante and the Shootout series, which helped establish his signature approach to crime dramas and stylised storytelling. His work left a distinct mark on the genre, with his films continuing to be remembered by audiences and industry colleagues alike. As the film fraternity comes together to mourn his passing, the tributes reflect not only on his body of work but also on the personal connections he built over the years.

He was addressing a gathering at the Parade Ground in Gujarat's Ekta Nagar on the occasion of Rashtriya Ekta Diwas, marking the 151st birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.

Digital Desk | Guwahati, Oct 31 (IANS) Union Minister and BJP leader Sukanta Majumdar on Saturday alleged that illegal infiltrators from Bangladesh were part of a larger attempt to change India's demographic composition and destabilise the country, urging people to remain vigilant against such activities. Addressing reporters here, Majumdar said the people of Assam understood the challenges of illegal immigration better than anyone else in the country, given the state's geographical proximity to Bangladesh and its history of migration-related concerns. Nobody in India understands the issue of infiltrators better than the people of Assam. Every day, someone or the other is apprehended here. Even yesterday, I saw a news report about 36 people being caught who admitted that they were Bangladeshis and had come from Bangladesh, he said. Alleging that the objective of such infiltration was to alter India's demography, the Minister said forces seeking to destabilise the country were working towards a larger agenda. We have to remain alert against these forces. Their objective is to change the demography and destroy India, the BJP leader alleged. Majumdar also highlighted the Centre's poverty alleviation initiatives, claiming that 500 million people had been brought out of multidimensional poverty during the last 12 years under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. He said the country had witnessed a transformation under the present government, contrasting its achievements with previous governments that, according to him, had only raised slogans such as 'Garibi Hatao'. The Union Minister particularly emphasised the importance of educating younger generations about national issues, including illegal immigration and its potential implications for national security. Referring to Generation Z and the upcoming Generation Alpha, Majumdar urged young people to seek information independently and not blindly accept the narratives presented by political leaders. He appealed to citizens to examine facts and raise awareness among the country's youth about issues concerning national security, demographic changes and India's stability.
India Could Soon Have A Specialist Womens T20I Squad, Says Head Coach Amol Muzumdar
ODI World Cup: India womens head coach Amol Muzumdar said on Saturday it wouldnt take much time to have a specialist T20I squad, citing that the next generation of cricketers coming through are better equipped to meet the demands of the shortest format. India are current holders of the ODI World Cup, which they won in Navi Mumbai in 2025, but are yet to win a T20 World Cup. Not long. Were already on that path. Theres some amazing talent coming through. The talent Ive seen at the CoE (Centre of Excellence), where they hold the India Under-15 and U-19 camps, is terrific. The work at the CoE is superb. The camps are a good reflection of where Indian womens cricket is at the moment. Im sure its in a healthy state, Muzumdar said at an event organised by Sports Journalists Association of Mumbai (SJAM). He added that youngsters understand what modern T20 cricket demands. They are tuned in. They are professionals. Even the U-15 players are professionals. They understand the nutrition aspect of the game. They understand the fitness aspect of the game. They understand fielding. Theyre terrific fielders. Theyre good athletes. They understand that athleticism is key in cricket. Youll soon find that when the younger generation takes over, India will be in a good state. Years in domestic cricket have given Muzumdar an eye for spotting talented players, but he said he valued how open a player was to learning as much as their skill. I see whether he or she is receptive. If he or she is receptive, you know it from their body language. You need to learn to understand the body language of the player. Over the years, I have spent a few years in First-Class cricket, and I do understand that I can know a certain player through their body language on the ground. I try to catch those signals. Sometimes you have to respect the space that the athlete wants. You can have 10,000 things as a coach to tell that athlete. But whether he or she is in that time frame or the mind frame to understand what you are doing, he said. With the first anniversary of India winning their first Womens ODI World Cup coming on Monday, Muzumdar was asked about that one memory the team must hold on to from that campaign. If I have to pinpoint just one, then I think the unity in the camp and the dressing room atmosphere. Because of that unity, the dressing room atmosphere was very light. There was a little bit of a buzz around in the dressing room, which I love to create, he said. On Smriti Mandhana taking over as captain from Harmanpreet Kaur, Muzumdar spoke warmly about the outgoing skipper. I had a very good time with Harman as a captain. But Im also looking forward to the future. With utmost respect, the manner in which she conducted herself as a captain, as a skipper, was superb. I feel myself really lucky that I had that opportunity for the three years that I spent with her as a coach. I could gather the mindset of the captain... I could gather the mindset of the leader in her. I consider myself really lucky about it. Muzumdar stated the next step was for the team to dominate world cricket. Two years down the line, if they start dominatingDominance is something that we have always spoken about within the squad. Being ruthless on the ground is another thing that we have always maintained. I dont know where it stems from. I feel myself really lucky that I had that opportunity for the three years that I spent with her as a coach. I could gather the mindset of the captain... I could gather the mindset of the leader in her. I consider myself really lucky about it. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

India-US trade deal at finish line for very long time: Gor
Digital Desk | Atlanta, Oct 31 (IANS) The India-US trade agreement has been at the finish line for a very long time, US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor said in Atlanta on Saturday, expressing confidence that Washington and New Delhi would close the deal while pointing to the nearly two decades India took to conclude its pact with the European Union (EU). The trade agreement has been at the finish line for a very long time, and we hope we will be able to get it across the finish line, Gor told reporters shortly before the Quad Foreign Ministers Meeting, being held on the sidelines of the G20 Foreign Ministers Meeting. The one thing I tell people: keep in perspective, the European Union trade deal with India took almost 20 years. Weve been at this for a little over a year, so we got plenty of time, he said. We will get it. Gor said the Atlanta meeting of the foreign ministers of the US, India, Japan and Australia, the third at ministerial level this year, could pave the way for a summit of the four leaders. We had a first meeting in Delhi, as you know. We had a second meeting in Manila, and this is the third meeting here in Atlanta, he said. And the hopes is that this leads into the finalising and an announcement of a leader summit at some point between all four leaders. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar is attending the Quad meeting hosted by the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Theres so much that happens in the Quad. We have regular touchpoints weekly, almost, and so its very important that at the highest levels theres also engagement, Gor said. Describing the bilateral relationship as great, Gor said: Pick any sector, pick any item. The United States and India are working at it at a higher level than ever before, citing pharmaceuticals, IT and military exercises. As you know, India has more military exercises with the United States than anyone else, he said, referring to the deployment of 500 troops for the Yudh Abhyas exercise and the recent Tarang Shakti air exercise, which he said had featured F-35s for the first time. Gor signalled more to come, saying youll see something coming up very soon, with another very interesting military exercise in the next month. He did not give details. He noted that Rubio had visited India twice in six months. Were hoping he comes back again next year. Theres never a shortage of things to work on. The trip, Gor said, was heavily focused on commercial diplomacy, on energy, adding: Leading up to the G20, we hope to have some very exciting deliverables, and were working very closely and rapidly on those behind the scenes. After the Quad talks, EAM Jaishankar is to join the closing session of the G20 Foreign Ministers Meeting.
