Apni Party accuses govt of failing on governance, jobs
Srinagar, Aug 17: Apni Party Provincial President Mohammad Ashraf Mir on Monday accused the elected government in Jammu and Kashmir of failing to provide effective governance and fulfil promises made during the 2024 Assembly elections. Mir made the remarks while welcoming several political and social workers from Shopian, including senior PDP worker Mohammad Yusuf Wani from Safanagri Zainapora, NC worker Sajad Aziz from Heff Shirmal, Mohammad Asif Bhat, Farhan Ali and their associates into the Apni Party at its headquarters in Srinagar. Welcoming the new entrants, Mir said the party leadership would support them in their efforts to address public issues in their respective areas. Targeting the government, Mir said people had given it a strong mandate in the hope that their grievances would be addressed, but claimed that little had been done to provide relief. He said unemployment remained one of the biggest challenges facing Jammu and Kashmir and accused the government of failing to create meaningful employment opportunities for youth. Mir recalled the ruling partys election promise to provide one lakh jobs and claimed that no substantial initiative had been taken despite more than two years having passed since the Assembly elections. He urged people to reconsider their support for traditional political parties, alleging that they had repeatedly failed to deliver on their promises. Mir also appealed to voters not to be misled by what he described as false promises and fake slogans during elections.

Orry once again grabbed attention on Khatron Ke Khiladi 15, but this time it was his rather unusual fear and an even more surprising Salman Khan revelation that became the highlight. During the episode, host Rohit Shetty told Orry, Ive heard that youre afraid of pencils. Explaining his fear, Orry said, Im scared that if Im writing with a pencil and sneeze while writing, the pencil might go inside my nose, reach my brain, and I could die. His bizarre explanation left everyone amused, but the conversation soon took an unexpected turn. A fellow contestant then called Orry out, saying, Sir, hes lying. He keeps a photo of the greatest star, Salman Khan, beside his bed. How can he be afraid of a pencil? The comment prompted Orry to reveal just how important Salman Khan is to him. In every house and on every trip, I keep a picture of Salman Khan by my bedside. I put glasses on it, so when I cant see, the first thing I do is put on my glasses and look at his photo for good luck, Orry shared. When Rohit Shetty asked if there was a deeper connection behind the ritual, Orry opened up about Salmans role in his journey. He gave me my first successful break, so I carry the same photo everywhere, he said. The candid confession offered a rare glimpse into Orrys admiration for the superstar and explained why Salmans picture has become more than just a photograph for him. For Orry, it has turned into a personal good-luck charm that travels with him wherever he goes. The revelation comes at a time when Orry is also surprising audiences with his unexpected daredevil avatar on Khatron Ke Khiladi 15. Known for his viral appearances and quirky internet persona, he has been taking on challenging stunts and showing a side of himself that fans did not necessarily expect. From being scared of a pencil to fearlessly facing dangerous challenges, Orry continues to keep viewers entertained and with Salman Khans picture by his side, he seemingly has his favourite lucky charm along for the ride.

PM promises jobs for 3.5 crore youth
New Delhi, Aug 15:Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday announced a nationwide talent hunt for children aged 5 to 15 to identify future Olympic athletes, as he positioned India's youth and sporting ambitions at the centre of his vision for a developed nation by 2047. Addressing the nation from the ramparts of the Red Fort on India's 80th Independence Day, PM Modi said India's performance in international sport was steadily improving and the country was moving forward as a strong contender to host the 2036 Olympics. He also said India would host the Commonwealth Games in 2030. India's performance in the world of sports is steadily improving, and we are moving forward as strong contenders to host the 2036 Olympics. Bharat is also going to host the Commonwealth Games in 2030, he said. The PM said the Olympic Games encompass roughly 40 sports and between 325 and 350 events, but India does not participate in nearly two-thirds of those events because it does not qualify. In nearly two-thirds of these 325 events, Bharat does not even participate. We are not present; we do not qualify, he said, adding that India had decided it wanted the 2036 Olympics to be held in the country and must focus on these areas. We also want to launch a talent-hunt campaign, PM Modi said. He said the campaign would be conducted in villages, cities and schools across the country to identify sporting talent among children aged between 5 and 15. If we need athletes for 2036, we must focus today on these young boys and girls who are 5, 10 or 15 years old. We must pay attention to our daughters as well, the PM said. Children identified through the campaign would have their abilities assessed and receive specialised training to help develop them into athletes capable of representing the country, he said. PM Modi highlighted advances across India's sporting ecosystem, citing the Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS), Khelo India Games, University Games, Winter Games and Beach Games, alongside sports infrastructure, coaching, sports medicine and sports nutrition. The TOPS scheme has achieved tremendous success. Khelo India Games, University Games, Winter Games, Beach Games, sports infrastructure, coaching for sports, sports medicine and sports nutrition, Bharat is moving forward towards achieving excellence in all these areas, he said. The PM said that opportunities were also expanding around sport for young people who may not become athletes themselves. For young people, even if they are unable to become athletes themselves, a vast new field of opportunities is opening up within the support system around sports, he said. PM Modi also announced the launch of the Pradhan Mantri Viksit Bharat Rojgar Yojana, a scheme worth Rs 1 lakh crore that he said would create new employment opportunities for approximately 3.5 crore youth. Today, on August 15, we are launching and implementing a scheme worth Rs 1 lakh crore for the youth of my country, he said. Under the scheme, the government will provide Rs 15,000 to every young person who gets a job in the private sector. Companies that generate more opportunities for new employment will also receive incentives, the PM said.

PM Modi said young people would be the greatest beneficiaries of his vision of a Viksit Bharat, or developed India, by 2047. If there is one, it is the youth of my country, the youth power of the country. The youth have a very important role to play in the journey towards a 'Viksit Bharat', he said. Therefore, we must take forward the goal of a 'Viksit Bharat' by connecting it with the aspirations and participation of our youth. We must move forward with our youth as our highest priority. The PM also highlighted the expansion of India's startup ecosystem, saying there were now more than 2.5 lakh registered startups under the Startup India initiative. Referring to the government's Rs 1 lakh crore Innovation Fund, he encouraged young entrepreneurs to pursue their ideas. Come forward with your dreams; we will ensure that there is no shortage of resources, PM Modi said. He also announced free online coaching for young people preparing for various examinations, saying the cost of coaching classes had become a major burden for middle-class families. The pressure of coaching classes has become a major burden for our middle-class families, the PM said. Therefore, we have decided to provide free online coaching for young people preparing for various examinations, he said. PM Modi said the initiative would combine India's digital public infrastructure, teaching talent, and teachers to build a nationwide network offering free coaching. We have the digital public infrastructure, we have excellent talent, and we have teachers. By bringing these resources together, we are going to build an extensive network to provide free coaching to the young people of the country, he said. The PM also warned of growing substance abuse among young people and called for a collective national response. Drug abuse is becoming a major crisis for the country and its young people. A 'Nasha Mukt Bharat' must be a collective responsibility for all of us, he said. For the sake of our bright future, our younger generation must be strong, and the strength of our youth must be harnessed for the progress of our country, PM Modi said. The announcements formed part of the PM's broader Independence Day message focused on youth participation, employment, entrepreneurship, education and sport, as well as India's longer-term ambition to become a developed nation by 2047.
