Iran Broadcasts Nuclear Attack Survival Rules As Netanyahu-Trump Pickax Strike Claim Sparks Panic
Iranian state television is broadcasting civil-defence instructions explaining how civilians should respond to a nuclear explosion and radioactive fallout, as extraordinary claims about a possible US nuclear option against Iran fuel anxiety in Tehran. The broadcasts come amid Tucker Carlsons claim that Donald Trump is facing pressure to consider using a nuclear weapon against Pickax Mountain, Irans deeply buried nuclear complex near Natanz. Carlson alleges Benjamin Netanyahu is pushing Trump to destroy the facility because its depth could make it difficult to eliminate with conventional bunker-busting weapons. Those claims do not establish that Washington has decided on or formally adopted a nuclear strike plan. Iran, meanwhile, is also debating its own nuclear doctrine if another war erupts, although security chief Mohsen Rezaei says no formal decision has been made. Diplomatic messages are still moving between Washington and Tehran. But Iranian television is now preparing families for the darkest possible outcome.
Limited US Strike, Explosions On Iranian Soil: New Video Captures Qeshm island Strike
New eyewitness footage verified by Reuters shows bright flashes and explosions over Irans Qeshm Island on the night US officials say American forces carried out a limited strike on Iranian territory. Washington says the confrontation began when Irans Revolutionary Guards launched a surface-to-air missile towards a US aircraft operating around the Strait of Hormuz. An American official says US forces subsequently struck the island, while stressing that the operation was not intended to signal a return to major combat operations. Qeshms location makes even a limited strike highly sensitive. The island is sovereign Iranian territory positioned directly beside the Strait of Hormuz, where American and Iranian forces remain in close proximity. Diplomatic messages between Washington and Tehran continue. But the new footage captures the other side of that relationship: flashes over Qeshm and explosions on Iranian soil.

Richa Chadha has joined hands with acclaimed music composer Sneha Khanwalkar for the title track of her upcoming non-fiction series Musafiri. The series, which explores Indias diverse cultures and lesser-known stories, will feature an original composition by Sneha, who has also lent her voice to the track. Known for bringing a distinctive musical sensibility to projects such as Gangs of Wasseypur and the travel-based series Sound Trippin, Sneha has created a title track that complements the spirit of Musafiri. The collaboration also marks another creative association between the actor and the composer, who have shared a professional connection across different phases of Richas career. Speaking about working with Sneha again, Richa described the composer as a close friend and reflected on their long-standing association. She also spoke about the qualities she enjoys in the new composition. I am proud to call Sneha a friend and if India has a thousand stories, Sneha will probably find the soundtrack for all of them. I love the humming, curious, sometimes mischievous and sometimes lullaby like quality of the song. My first film as an actor was Oye Lucky, which also marked her debut. My first film as a producer, Girls will be Girls featured a song from Sneha and now my first as a creator. She really is my lucky charm Sneha, meanwhile, spoke about Richas approach to creating Musafiri and revealed how the title track came together. According to the composer, the initial musical idea was developed into a song with lyrics written by Richa herself. Richa is an independent voice! And shes brought her journalistic education into a brilliant, engaging and entertaining show Musafiri that takes you through landscapes we have been watching closely but never known so deeply. When she told me to make a title song for it, I gave her a basic rhythmic track with a cue singing in gibberish. She then herself wrote the lyrics over it for me to record with. Its always fun working with Richa. With Musafiri, Richa steps into the role of creator, bringing together her interest in storytelling and travel through a series centred on India's varied cultural identities. The collaboration with Sneha adds a musical dimension to the project, with the title track setting the tone for its exploration of the countrys many stories and landscapes.

Ranbir Kapoor has revealed that he began training for the physical aspects of his role as Lord Rama in Ramayana nearly a year and a half before filming began. The actor worked with an Indian Olympian to learn archery techniques and also underwent workshops focused on movement, breathing and physicality for the highly anticipated epic. Speaking to Review Nation after the Los Angeles premiere of Ramayana Part 1, Ranbir explained that getting the action right was important to make his portrayal believable on screen. Ranbir Kapoor trained with an Indian Olympian for archery Ranbir said he started working on his archery skills well before the cameras began rolling. Lord Rama was a great archer. So, about a year and a half before we started filming, I worked with an Indian Olympian on the right technique. I was in New York for some time, and I also took some classes here, he said. However, the actor pointed out that mastering the physical skills was only one part of preparing for the role. The deeper part was to understand the essence of who Lord Rama is. You can read as much as you want and see different interpretations, but eventually, what soul are you putting into the character? I could be playing Lord Rama, but the soul is mine. How do I change that? How do I bring a new soul? Ranbir said. Terry Notary conducted workshops for the actors Ranbir also spoke about the physical training the films action team, including Guy Norris and Terry Notary, conducted. He revealed that Notary's workshops went beyond combat training. Terry Notary had workshops where he taught us breathing techniques, how to walk, how to climb a tree and things like that, Ranbir said. The actor added that learning new skills has been one of the rewarding aspects of working on films. As actors, we are so lucky and grateful that we get to learn new skills with new movies. But Ramayana will always be special because it is the most beloved story with beloved characters. So doing all of this was awesome. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana Part 1 stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita and Yash as Ravana. The film is produced by Namit Malhotras Prime Focus and Monster Mind Creations and is scheduled to release on November 5. Also Read:BREAKING: Ramayana BREAKS pre-Diwali jinx!

Digital Banking in India: What to Check Before Opening an Account
Digital banking allows customers to open an account, transfer funds, pay bills and manage deposits through a mobile app or internet banking portal, often without visiting a branch. As most banking services are now available digitally, the differences between providers lie less in whether a service is offered online and more in how it is delivered. This article outlines the factors worth evaluating before opening a digital account, the distinction between traditional banks and neobanks, and the safety practices that apply to every digital banking user. What to Evaluate in a Digital Banking Service Before opening or switching to a digital account, the following factors can help compare options on a like-for-like basis: Account opening and KYC: Whether the account can be opened fully online using Aadhaar-based e-KYC or Video KYC, and whether any limits apply until full KYC is completed. Range of services: Whether deposits, cards, bill payments, investments, loans and service requests can be handled on the app or still require a branch visit. Charges and balance requirements: Minimum average balance, non-maintenance charges, debit card fees and transaction limits, as disclosed in each bank's schedule of charges. Interest on deposits: Savings account and fixed deposit rates, which vary across banks and are revised periodically. Security controls: Features such as device binding, PIN or biometric login, card lock and unlock, and customer-defined transaction limits. Customer support and grievance redressal: Availability of in-app support and helplines, and a clear escalation path, including the RBI Integrated Ombudsman Scheme. Interest rates and charges change frequently, so current figures should be verified on the bank's official website before opening an account. Traditional Banks and Neobanks: Key Differences Traditional banks offer digital channels alongside physical branches, which can be useful for services that still require in-person verification, such as locker access or certain loan documentation. Neobanks operate only through apps and typically partner with an RBI-licensed bank to offer accounts, so deposit safety, grievance handling and regulatory oversight rest with that partner bank. Customers considering a neobank should identify the partner bank and review its terms before opening an account. Safety Practices for Digital Banking Users Regardless of the bank chosen, a few practices help reduce the risk of fraud: Use official channels only: The RBI required banks to migrate their websites to the exclusive . bank.in' domain by October 31, 2025. Banking apps should be downloaded only from official app stores after checking the developers name. Never share credentials: Banks do not ask for OTPs, PINs or passwords over calls, messages or emails. Keep alerts active: SMS and email alerts should remain enabled, and the registered mobile number and email address kept up to date. Report unauthorised transactions promptly: Under the RBI's customer protection framework, a customer's liability is zero for a third-party breach if the bank is notified within three working days of receiving the transaction alert. Cyber fraud can also be reported on the national helpline 1930. Use in-app controls: Card lock, transaction limits and disabling international usage when not required add a further layer of protection. The Bottom Line Most banks in India now offer a broad range of services through their apps, so the practical differences lie in charges, account requirements, security controls and access to support. Customers who bank mainly through their phones may prioritise fully digital onboarding, while those who value in-person service may give more weight to branch access. Reviewing the schedule of charges and current interest rates on official bank websites remains the most reliable basis for a decision. Common Questions for Digital Banking Are digital banks in India safe? Yes, provided the account is held with an RBI-licensed bank. Deposits are insured by DICGC up to 5 lakh per depositor per bank, including principal and interest. Neobanks typically offer accounts through a partner bank, so customers should check which licensed bank holds their deposits. Which documents are required to open a savings account online? Most banks require a PAN card, an Aadhaar number and a mobile number linked to Aadhaar to open a digital savings account . The process is usually completed through Aadhaar-based e-KYC followed by Video KYC, and activation timelines vary by bank. Can I switch banks without closing my old account? Yes. Customers can open the new account, shift salary credits, standing instructions and auto-debits, and then decide whether to retain or close the old account. If the old account is retained, its minimum balance requirements and charges continue to apply, and an account with no customer-initiated transactions for over two years is classified as inoperative.

Lack of ideological compatibility behind Ruhullah's exit from NC: Tariq Karra
Jammu, Nov 3: Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) president Tariq Hameed Karra on Tuesday attributed National Conference MP Aga Ruhullah Mehdis differences with his party to a possible lack of ideological compatibility, while asserting that the Congress would stand firmly with the NC whenever it faced a threat from the BJP. Reacting to recent political developments, including reported dissent among NC legislators following the recent Cabinet expansion and Ruhullahs resignation from the party, Karra expressed confidence that the National Conference would be able to manage the situation. Asked about Ruhullahs resignation, Karra said every individual had their own reasons for quitting a party, adding that, in his understanding, it appeared to stem from a lack of compatibility. He had a different perspective, while the party was moving in a different direction. Perhaps there was also a lack of ideological compatibility, Karra told PTI on the sidelines of a party function here. Drawing a parallel with his own resignation from Parliament and the PDP in September 2016, as well as Ghulam Nabi Azads resignation from the Congress in August 2022, the JKPCC president said political leaders had their own reasons for taking such decisions. Karra said it was too early to speculate about the stability or tenure of the NC-led government amid reports of separate meetings by several MLAs and Ruhullahs resignation. Such developments were not unusual in political parties and governments and could be handled through dialogue and internal coordination, he said. I am very sure that the National Conference will be quite active in handling the situation, he said. Commenting on BJP leader Ram Madhavs visit to Jammu and speculation about a possible major political development after Tuesday, Karra said the Congress had no information about any such move. As far as we know, there is no such development, nor are we anticipating anything of that sort. We will wait and see what happens, he said. Karra reiterated that the Congress would stand by the National Conference whenever the latter faced a threat from the BJP. We have always maintained that whenever the National Conference faces any threat from the BJP, the Congress Party must stand firmly alongside the National Conference, he said. He said the Congress would continue its campaigns for the restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir. Congress has been organising protests, hunger strikes and campaigns such as Jammu Chalo and Delhi Chalo over the past two years under the slogan Our State, Our Right. This is an ongoing movement for the restoration of statehood and such programmes will continue, he said.
