MLA Sajjad Shaheen Inaugurates Free Medical Camp for Persons with Disabilities at SDH Banihal
Banihal, August 12: National Conference leader and BanihalGool MLA Sajjad Shaheen today inaugurated a free medical camp for persons with disabilities at Sub-District Hospital (SDH) Banihal, organised by the Health Department to provide accessible healthcare services, medical consultation and necessary assistance to specially-abled persons. Speaking on the occasion, Shaheen said the Government is committed to strengthening healthcare institutions in rural and remote areas so that people do not have to travel long distances for essential medical treatment. He emphasised that people living in difficult and far-flung areas deserve the same quality of healthcare facilities as those available in urban centres. He said SDH Banihal will soon get a CT Scan facility, which would significantly improve diagnostic services and strengthen the hospitals capacity to provide advanced healthcare locally. Shaheen said that SDH Gool, PHC Sangaldan, PHC Khari, PHC Ukharhal, PHC Neel, PHC Mangit, NTPHC Ramsoo and other healthcare institutions across the BanihalGool constituency would be progressively strengthened with better infrastructure, adequate manpower and improved medical facilities, with special focus on heart-care and other essential healthcare services for people living in remote and difficult terrain. People living in rural and difficult terrain areas deserve the same quality of healthcare as those living in urban centres. Our endeavour is to strengthen the healthcare network at the grassroots level and ensure that no person is deprived of timely and quality medical attention due to distance or lack of facilities, Shaheen said. He termed the medical camp an important initiative for bringing specialised healthcare, consultation and guidance closer to persons with disabilities. He stressed the need for organising such camps regularly, particularly in remote areas, to facilitate early diagnosis, treatment, medical assessment and access to various government welfare schemes. A number of persons with disabilities availed themselves of the services provided at the camp, where they received medical examination, consultation and necessary guidance from the medical team. Shaheen appreciated the Block Medical Officer (BMO) Banihal and his team for organising the camp and lauded the doctors, paramedical staff and other healthcare workers for their dedicated efforts. He said such initiatives not only provide immediate medical assistance but also help identify the healthcare requirements of vulnerable sections of society and facilitate timely intervention. Later, Shaheen conducted a detailed tour of SDH Banihal to take stock of patient-care facilities and review the overall functioning of the hospital. He interacted with patients and their attendants, listened to their concerns and sought feedback regarding the facilities and services being provided at the hospital. During the visit, Shaheen announced 10 air conditioners for all patient wards of SDH Banihal, aimed at improving the comfort and well-being of patients, particularly during extreme weather conditions. He also reviewed the availability of essential facilities and stressed the need for maintaining high standards of patient care and ensuring that patients and their attendants receive a comfortable and dignified environment at the hospital. Health Department officials, doctors, paramedical staff, local party functionaries and attendants of beneficiaries were present on the occasion.

J&K govt issues fresh directives on forest rights, encroachment
Jammu, Aug 12 : The Jammu and Kashmir administration on Wednesday issued a fresh set of guidelines to streamline the processing of forest rights claims while simultaneously cracking down on unauthorised occupation of forest land, officials said. The circular, issued by the Forest, Ecology and Environment Department, reiterates that all actions concerning forest land must strictly comply with the Indian Forest Act, 1927, and the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006. It is imperative to maintain an appropriate balance between the protection, conservation and sustainable management of forests and the recognition and settlement of legitimate forest rights, the circular stated. The directive comes in the wake of a separate communication from the Tribal Affairs Department on July 30, which had already laid down the mechanism for settling pending claims under the Forest Rights Act. Deputy Commissioners, who chair the District Level Committees, have been directed to expedite the processing of all pending claims strictly in accordance with the prescribed procedure, officials said. The circular further mandates that forest and revenue records be reconciled and areas properly demarcated to avoid erroneous identification of land and overlapping claims. However, it clarifies that such reconciliation shall not prejudice any claim pending under the Forest Rights Act. Where occupation of forest land is found to be unauthorised and not covered by a recognised right, the concerned Forest authorities have been directed to initiate action for removal as per law, while ensuring due regard to Section 4(5) of the Forest Rights Act. Pending determination of any claim, the existing forest character and ecological integrity of the area shall be protected, and no activity causing degradation of forest resources shall be permitted, the circular said. The Forest Department has also been asked to extend all necessary assistance to Gram Sabhas, Sub-Divisional Level Committees, and District Level Committees in the verification and settlement of claims. Territorial Forest Divisions have been directed to maintain updated records of claims recognised, rejected, or pending, in coordination with the Revenue Department. Any claim or proposed activity concerning protected or ecologically sensitive areas shall be examined within the framework of the Forest Rights Act, the Indian Forest Act, the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972, and applicable environmental laws and judicial directions, the order added. The circular has been marked to all Administrative Secretaries, the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests, all Deputy Commissioners, and the Divisional Commissioners of Jammu and Kashmir, among others.

Tehran , August 12 : Iran's newly appointed head of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Mohsen Rezaei warned that Tehran will not fully reopen the strategic Strait of Hormuz until the United States meets all the conditions. In a message posted on X, Rezaei outlined Iran's position on the Persian Gulf shipping route and clarified the required conditions for the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. IRAN's message is clear: the Strait of Hormuz will not reopen until the U.S. ends the war and blockade, releases Iran's frozen assets, and agrees to a region-wide ceasefire, including in Lebanon and Gaza, he wrote in the post. Rezaei added, Until all conditions are met, the Strait will remain closed. Earlier, Rezaei affirmed that the full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran has imposed transit restrictions since early March due to US-Israeli aggression, will only happen when Washington accepts Tehran's conditions, according to Press TV, Rezaei detailed Iran's stance during a Tuesday meeting with Chinese Ambassador Zong Piyu in Tehran, stating that the US must end the war on Iran and its regional allies and release Iran's blocked funds. As long as the US does not change its behaviour and accept Iran's conditions, the Strait of Hormuz will not be reopened, Rezaei said in the meeting. He noted that Iran has also communicated additional conditions to the US through intermediaries involved in indirect negotiations over recent weeks. Rezaei reiterated that if Iran and Oman, the other littoral state in the Strait of Hormuz, reach an agreement on transit routes in the waterway, that agreement will have no impact on Iran's decision to close or reopen the strait. However, US President Donald Trump on Tuesday (local time) reiterated his claims of full control over the Strait of Hormuz while also warning Tehran against any actions that could see a strong response. He made the remarks while speaking to the media and accused Tehran of 'lying' to him. Trump said, I don't trust Iran. I'm the last person who trusts Iran. They've lied to me constantly. We have total control over the Strait of Hormuz right now. They don't have control. We have total control. We own it. The US President further warned Iran against taking any action, saying that it could face a forceful response.And at some point, maybe they'll do something and then they get blown away. He added that the United States is in a good position and said, Right now, we're in a very good position. We have a country that has been a bully of the Middle East for fifty years... They are no longer the bully of the Middle East. Tensions continue to simmer over the global energy chokepoint.The Strait of Hormuz remains a major flashpoint in the ongoing US-Iran conflict, with discussions underway between Tehran and Oman over the arrangements for transit through the strategic waterway.

LG Sinha Joins Tiranga Yatra, Says 21st Century Belongs to Bharat
SRINAGAR, AUGUST 12: The Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha participated in the Tiranga Yatra today, leading a momentous celebration of national pride in Srinagar. Following the Yatra, he addressed the citizens, reaffirming the immortal spirit of Indias unity and the indomitable courage of its people. The event marked the confluence of two monumental celebrations, the mass movement of Har Ghar Tiranga and the 150th anniversary of the national song Vande Mataram. The Lieutenant Governor said that the Tiranga is the living embodiment of Indias consciousness and pride. He emphasized that the Tiranga Yatra in the Kashmir Valley sends a clear message that India must never stop and always move forward. In 2022, when the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign was launched under Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, its purpose was to rekindle in every Indians heart a sense of closeness, respect, and emotional connection toward the tricolour. When the Tiranga flutters simultaneously on millions of homes, 140 crore Indians hearts beat as one in a single sentiment, a single faith, a single resolve. Today, Tiranga Yatra has evolved into a festival of peoples consciousness, a tradition of patriotism, and a cultural value binding every citizen to the motherland, he said. The Lieutenant Governor congratulated the people of Jammu Kashmir for their remarkable participation in the Har Ghar Tiranga and Vande Mataram campaigns. He noted that their enthusiasm has become a source of inspiration for the entire nation. He said the Tiranga is the soul of our nation and Vande Mataram is the immortal voice of that soul. The Lieutenant Governor urged citizens to reflect on their contribution to building the India envisioned by the nations forefathers. He emphasized that while martyrs defended the nation with their blood, todays generation must defend it with character, honesty, hard work, unity, and service. He said that the confluence of Har Ghar Tiranga and Vande Mataram is not merely the meeting of two campaigns but the announcement of a new era. This is the symbol of a Jammu Kashmir filled with self-confidence and marching firmly toward the future where Vijayi Vishwa Tiranga Pyara is a lifes resolve in every citizens heart, where every home is a centre of patriotism and where every heart beats in rhythm with the pulse of national unity, he said. On this historic occasion, the Lieutenant Governor called upon the people to take collective and personal responsibility for shaping Jammu Kashmir's and Indias future. He urged the people to ensure that the Tiranga will not only fly high at every home but also in our thoughts, our character, and our actions. Let us resolve that the sacred spirit of Vande Mataram will reflect in every action, every decision, and the discharge of every responsibility. We should take a pledge to repay the debt of our immortal heroes sacrifices by building a nation that is prosperous, secure, just, and opens doors of equal opportunity for every citizen. We should work together to realize the vision of a Jammu Kashmir where the three colours of the Tiranga are visible in the values of life. We should build a Jammu Kashmir that is economically strong and takes unbroken pride in Indian culture, civilization, and spiritual values. The future is ours. This century belongs to India. This is the era of Indias self-confidence, its courage, and its immortal national consciousness, the Lieutenant Governor said. On the occasion, the Lieutenant Governor honoured Veer Naris and War Heroes. He also inaugurated the Har Ghar Tiranga Exhibition and felicitated the nodal officers of the Vande Mataram campaign. The celebrations also featured the screening of a special documentary by the Department of Culture, followed by Tiranga concert where artists paid a musical tribute to the nations bravehearts.
