Fadnavis hails Union Budget as dream budget for middle class, highlights key Maharashtra allocations
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis praised Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharamans 2025-26 budget, calling it a dream budget that provides major relief to the middle class by making income up to Rs 12 lakh tax-free. The budget includes key allocations for Maharashtra, with Rs 683 crore for the Rural Connectivity Improvement Project, Rs 100 crore for the Agribusiness Project, Rs 1,094 crore for Economic Clusters, Rs 186 crore for Lift Irrigation Projects, Rs 699 crore for Pune Metro, Rs 1,255 crore for Mumbai Metro, Rs 4,004 crore for the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train, Rs 683 crore for rural development, Rs 295 crore for Nagdhi River, and Rs 229 crore for Mula-Mutha River development. Fadnavis said the budget would transform rural India, boost citizen-centric investment, and benefit Maharashtras startup sector. He called the tax exemption increase historic, saying it would enhance purchasing power, boost demand, and strengthen the economy. He welcomed the increase in the income tax exemption limit, stating that it would put more money in peoples hands and drive economic demand. Raising the taxable income limit from Rs 7 lakh to Rs 12 lakh is a historic decision. It will provide significant relief to the middle class, salaried individuals, and youth, ensuring they retain a larger share of their earnings, he added. The chief minister also said the budget would energise markets, enhance purchasing power, and generate employment, particularly benefiting the MSME sector. He pointed to key provisions such as a special incentive scheme for 100 districts, support for oilseed production, and a policy ensuring 100% procurement, which he said would greatly benefit farmers. Fadnavis underscored the budgets importance for Maharashtras startup ecosystem, calling the state the startup capital of India. With a loan limit of Rs 20 crore for startups, this budget will accelerate the growth of new businesses and create employment opportunities, he said. On infrastructure, he welcomed the new policy framework and the continuation of the 50-year interest-free loan scheme for foundational projects, saying Maharashtra would remain a key beneficiary. He also noted that Public-Private Partnership (PPP) projects would attract private investment and drive job creation. This budget strengthens Maharashtras progress across multiple sectors. It ensures long-term economic growth, boosts infrastructure, and provides crucial support for agriculture, startups, and employment generation, Fadnavis said.

IND vs ENG 5th T20I, Approaching Milestones and Records : The five-match T20I series between India cricket team and England cricket team has turned towards the hosts. They have won three of the four games to take a 3-1 unassailable lead with one match left to play. The fifth clash will take place on Sunday evening at 7 PM at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. This Wankhede cricket match will be crucial for both teams. Though India have won the series, a win here will set the tone for the coming ODI series. That is why Jos Buttler and his men will also look to gain a slight advantage after winning the final T20I. India have used the home conditions to full effect so far. Spinners have troubled the English batters a lot in the series, and that will be the plan on Sunday as well. But Wankhede Stadium is known for high-scoring games, and we might see a thriller between two strong batting lineups. Whatever the result will be, there are some records and milestones on the line. Below, we will talk about big records and milestones which are lined up and can be achieved in the fifth IND vs ENG T20I in Mumbai. India vs England, 5th T20I: Approaching T20I Records and T20I Cricket Milestones Ahead of the T20I at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai 1 - Arshdeep Singh took one wicket on his return in the fourth game, which has put him at 99 T20I wickets. One more wicket will make him the first Indian with 100 T20I wickets. He will also become the fastest pacer to reach this feat. 2 - Hardik Pandya had a brilliant match in Pune as he scored crucial runs. But with the ball, he currently has 94 wickets, and he needs three more wickets to surpass Chahal (96) and become India's second-leading wicket-taker in T20I. 4 - Jos Buttler has 3528 T20I runs in his career, and if he scores four more runs, he will become the fifth highest scorer in T20Is. 2 - Adil Rashid (130) is the leading wicket-taker for England in T20Is. He needs two more wickets to become the 6th highest wicket-taker in this format overall. 4 - Varun Chakravarthy has been superb this series. He has taken 12 wickets in four matches, and it is the most wickets by an Indian bowler in a bilateral series. But he is on the verge of making history. If Varun can take four wickets, he will finish with 16, and that is the most ever wickets by a bowler in a bilateral T20I series. If he takes three wickets, he will equal Jason Holder for 15 wickets. 5 - Rashid has 395 wickets in international cricket in his career. He needs five more wickets to complete 400 wickets and become only the second English spinner to do so. Also Read: Highest tax paying cricketers

Ranji Trophy: Shivams Five-for Comes After Going Through The Grind To Play Red-ball Cricket Again
Arun Jaitley Stadium: During day threes play of the Ranji Trophy match between Delhi and Railways at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, the small section of fans in the Gautam Gambhir and Mohinder Amarnath stands were making cheers of bowling being given to Virat Kohli when it was clear that his second chance with the bat wont come. But Kohlis turn with the ball wouldnt come as Delhis bowlers, led by Shivam Sharmas 5-33, bundled out Railways for a paltry 114 to win by an innings and 19 runs. Though the bonus point win wasnt enough for Delhi to enter the knockouts, they can still take some positives from their campaign one of them being Shivam, whose third five-wicket haul in first-class cricket came in his comeback season. As a cricketer, struggle is a part of life. Talking about the comeback, it's been in the making for two years. In my mind, when I was away for two years, I wanted to come back at any cost by playing in local tournaments, training, and practices. This was in my mind, as I wanted to perform well. I didn't think about selection. It was my job to perform in local tournaments. My focus was to perform well and come back, he said to reporters at the end of the match. In his time away from the game, Shivam recalled the work put in the last two-three years to get back into Delhi teams red-ball scheme of things. Apart from improving his off-spin, which is the stock delivery, Shivam participated in Goswami and Ganesh Dutt tournaments, Lala Raghubir Hot weather competition and Gold Cup in Dehradun. If this wasnt enough, Shivam also featured in J.P. Atray tournament, competitions in Maharashtra like the Aurangabad Premier League, traveling to play games in Gujarat, Calcutta and playing two-three tournaments in Assam. With his coach Naresh Jain sir providing valuable help, Shivam also moved away from bowling too fast, something which came into his game due to a healthy diet of playing T20 games. In the last few years, I have travelled a lot to play and gain experiences in different places and now I think I am getting the benefits. I have done more single wicket bowling practice, and bowled a lot of balls in a day. Because it is days cricket, you have to bowl long spells, so I did a lot of spot bowling. Yes, it (playing T20 matches) did have an effect on my bowling. I have been playing T20 cricket for the last 6-7 years, and began bowling faster, so I got used to it. Days cricket doesn't work in Delhi, so had to work specially hard for that to be capable of bowling 20-40 overs. For the last two years, I had to work hard to curb my way of bowling faster. Ahead of day threes play, with evidence of variable bounce in the previous day, Shivam spoke to bowling coach V Aravind and head coach Sarandeep Singh to decide on a strategy and get a favourable result for Delhi. It was decided that Shivam would bowl with a faster pace to get batters out. It did wonders as four of his five wickets in the second innings were left-handers. While Vivek Singh and Mohammad Saif were also guilty of poor shot selection, Karn Sharma and Rahul Sharma couldnt do much about their dismissals to Shivam. I spoke to them (Aravind and Sarandeep) this morning before play began in terms of what I can do on this pitch? The ball was keeping low in some parts of day two as well. So, I spoke to them about it and they told me to keep the pace fast, because the bounce on the wicket was low and there was some wear and tear on the pitch too. Also, we were warming up our bowling before the match and speaking to the coaches helped a lot, he added. Shivams performance in derailing Railways second innings is something which Delhi selectors will think of when selecting the team for the next domestic season, especially this coming after Nishunk Birla of Chandigarh and Saurashtras widely experienced Ravindra Jadeja had outbowled Delhis tweakers. Shivam was optimistic in his view that Delhis other spinners, including their leading wicket-taker Ayush Badoni are in their learning stage and will come good soon. There was a little problem in the spin bowling department because no spinners took wickets in heaps. There was a good pitch in the last match, and could have done well, but we are learning slowly as the spinners are young and are in their learning phase. So I think there is potential and that they are bowling well. Though they are not performing in the match, they are good bowlers and we will learn more. The way he has performed, Ayush has good potential. He has a good idea of bowling, and looks like a street-smart cricketer. He doesn't have the ability to spin a lot, but he has a good off-spinner mind. With Ravichandran Ashwin retiring, India are on the lookout for their next off-spinner in Tests and Shivam thinks the cupboard isnt bare. There are good off-spinners in India right now. Tanush Kotian is doing well, and Washington Sundar is there too. So, there is scope for off spin bowling in the Indian team. But I don't think about the future. I play one match at a time. I don't think about the next match, as I look to perform in the games I play. He signed off by conceding the matchs swift end took by surprise, but is now pleased with finding his good red-ball bowling rhythm on a day where fans wished for Kohli to bowl. No, I didn't think that the match would finish so soon. I thought that we will get a good result in our favour. With Ravichandran Ashwin retiring, India are on the lookout for their next off-spinner in Tests and Shivam thinks the cupboard isnt bare. There are good off-spinners in India right now.
