Coast Guard rescues three ridleys from ghost net off Andhra coast
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Nov 11 (IANS) The Indian Coast Guard (ICG) rescued three endangered Olive Ridley turtles entangled in a ghost net off the Nizampatnam coast in Andhra Pradesh during a scheduled surveillance patrol, before releasing them safely back into the sea. The crew of ICG's Rani Rashmoni spotted the trapped turtles adrift in marine debris and deployed a Gemini inflatable boat to reach them. Coast Guard personnel carefully cut through the abandoned net to free the turtles, which were believed to be travelling toward their primary nesting sites along the Odisha coastline. Through these rescues, ICG reaffirms its commitment to protecting the ocean and the marine ecosystem, the maritime force stated in an official release. Every year, the Coast Guard executes a specialised marine protection initiative known as Operation Olivia to safeguard hundreds of thousands of turtles arriving at mass nesting grounds across eastern coastal waters. The nesting cycle along the Odisha coast begins annually between November and December, extending through April and May, with mass nesting typically observed between late January and early February. Conservation efforts for the species gained momentum following the discovery and international recognition of the Gahirmatha rookery near the mouth of the Brahmani-Baitarani (Dhamra) River in 1974. Subsequent mass nesting sites were identified at the Devi River mouth in 1981 and at the Rushikulya River mouth in 1994. During the breeding season, female Olive Ridleys select narrow estuarine beaches and bays to lay between 100 and 140 eggs per clutch. However, the species faces severe survival threats from unregulated coastal development, tourist exploitation, illegal egg harvesting, and marine poaching for meat, shells, and leather. The most catastrophic threat remains accidental mortality caused by mechanised fishing trawlers, gill nets, and trawl nets. Thousands of adult turtles have historically succumbed to drowning after becoming trapped in commercial fishing gear operating around nesting corridors during mating periods. All five sea turtle species found in Indian waters, including the Olive Ridley, are granted strict statutory protection under Schedule I of the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972, as well as Appendix I of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). To mitigate threats throughout the six-month nesting cycle, the Indian Coast Guard enforces seasonal fishing bans near designated rookeries, conducts net inspections on commercial vessels, and leads regional environmental awareness drives.

Andhra CM Naidu claiming credit for progress made under Jagan, says YSRCP
Digital Desk | Tadepalli (Andhra Pradesh), Nov 10 (IANS) The YSR Congress Party has accused Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu of taking credit for progress achieved during Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddys government. YSRCP state spokesperson Putta Siva Shankar told the media at the party office here that the latest Access (In)equality Index ranking reflects earlier development, not the coalition governments work. The index, prepared by the Centre for New Economics Studies at O.P. Jindal Global University, assesses education, healthcare, basic services and social security. Andhra Pradesh ranked 10th in the 2021 report, based on 201419 data. It rose to third in 2024 under YS Jagan and is now second, Shankar said, adding that the latest ranking still reflects the earlier governments work. He cited Nadu-Nedu school upgrades, Aarogyasri, new medical colleges, more than 50,000 health-sector jobs, village secretariats, RBKs, village clinics, direct benefit transfers, ports and fishing harbours as examples of that work. Shankar alleged that state tax revenue fell from Rs 89,435 crore in 202425 to Rs 86,552 crore in 202526a 3.2% decline. He said that the coalition government is borrowing an average of Rs 460 crore a day and has taken Rs 3,99,498 crore in 29 months. He put per-capita debt at Rs 2,11,588 and warned it could reach Rs 5 lakh in two years. He said Andhra Pradeshs Ease of Doing Business ranking fell from first to eighth and claimed that industries are leaving the state. He also cited unemployment of 21% in Andhra Pradesh against a national average of 14.6%, calling it the countrys third-highest unemployment rate. The YSRCP spokesperson said Chandrababu Naidu promised a loan waiver for DWCRA women but cheated them by going back on his promise. He stated that Jagan Mohan Reddy had waived the outstanding dues of approximately Rs 20,000 crore for these women.
Pawan Kalyan's ex-wife Renu Desai's cryptic post urging people to be kind draws netizens' attention
Digital Desk | Hyderabad, Nov 10 (IANS) Actress Renu Desai, the former wife of Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister and Telugu actor Pawan Kalyan, on Tuesday put out a cryptic post on Instagram, urging people to be kind and pointing out that it was not morally right to hurl abuses at people who were already going through a difficult time. Taking to her Instagram page to put out the post, Renu Desai wrote, Oka vyakthi kashtam lo unte vallani inkaa dooshinchadam is not morally right.Already kinda padipoina vaallani tokkadam inhuman! (When a person is facing a difficult time, it is not morally right to hurl abuses at them. It is inhuman to stomp on someone who has already falled down.) She went on to observe, Vaallu e sthaayi lo unnaa, vaallu kooda oka manishi- okari santhaanam, oka parent o, or someones sibling ani marchipokoodadu. (Even if they are in this position, one should not forget that they too are human beings -- someone's heir, a parent or someone's sibling.) Please dont throw stones at other peoples houses when we ourselves live in imperfect glass houses! Urging people to be kind and empathetic, she wrote, We are all humans and empathy and kindness are the first fundamental requirements to be called a human! ( just because I wrote these words dont start your stupid speculations because I sincerely believe that as a society we can do better). And NO, I havent gotten any paytm to be kind and sensible. Its just the way I perceive things with a functioning prefrontal cortex. The post triggered great excitement on social media as it came close on the heels of Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister and Telugu actor Pawan Kalyan and his third wife Anna Konidela announcing their decision to part ways. For the unaware, Pawan Kalyan had married Anna Lezhneva, a Russian citizen, in September 2013 under the Special Marriage Act at a Sub-Registrar Office in Hyderabad. The couple have two children Polena Anjana Pawanova and Mark Shankar Pawanovich. The couple, in a joint statement which was addressed to well wishers and near and dear ones, said, After sharing a significant part of our lives together, we have decided to part ways with mutual understanding and respect. They further added, Though our marriage has come to an end, we remain good friends and devoted parents to our wonderful children. Their happiness and well-being will always remain our shared priority. They concluded the brief statement saying, During this personal transition, we seek your understanding, kindness, and respect for our privacy. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has stood by us throughout this journey.

Read Sonia Gandhi, understand her: Cong leaders on her memoir
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 10 (IANS) Congress leaders have welcomed the release of Congress Parliamentary Party Chairperson Sonia Gandhis memoir, describing it as an important account of her personal journey, political experiences and contributions to Indian public life. They said the book would help people understand her life beyond the allegations and criticism levelled against her by the BJP and other political opponents. Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) Vice President Gurunadham said the party was happy to see Sonia Gandhis biography, titled Belonging: A Journey of Love, being released by her on Tuesday. He described the decision to bring out the book as appropriate and timely, particularly in view of what he called repeated attempts by the BJP to undermine her public image and stature. The Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee is very happy to note that Sonia Gandhis biography, titled Belonging: A Journey of Love, is being released today by Sonia Gandhi herself. The decision taken by Sonia Gandhi is the right decision at the right time. Why? Because the BJP has been making several allegations against Sonia Gandhi and attempting to undermine her stature and status in the public eye. So, this is a good response to the BJP, and I feel it is also a part and parcel of great Indian history, Gurunadham said. Meanwhile, Congress spokesperson Surendra Rajput also welcomed the memoir, saying it would bring Sonia Gandhis personal experiences and journey before the public and help clear several misconceptions surrounding her. Speaking about the book, Rajput said: This is Sonia Gandhis only book in which she has written her memoirs. And through this book, the truth will become clear. All her personal experiences will come before everyone, and everyone should read it. He also anticipated criticism from the BJP, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and groups which, according to him, engage in communal politics by creating divisions between Hindus and Muslims. Yes, the Bharatiya Janata Party, the RSS and those who indulge in Hindu-Muslim politics in the name of communalism will certainly create a controversy over certain incidents mentioned in the book. They will definitely raise questions. We must welcome those criticisms as well. We are ready to respond to them, he said. Making an appeal to readers, Rajput urged people to understand Sonia Gandhis life and contributions rather than making personal remarks against her. But our only appeal is this: Come, read Sonia Gandhi. Understand Sonia Gandhi, and instead of making shameless remarks about her, respect her. See how she has shaped her journey in India and what sacrifices, dedication and commitment she has demonstrated. All these things will become clear when her story, in her own words, comes before the public, he said. Rajput further claimed that the memoir would put to rest several misconceptions and allegations that had circulated about Sonia Gandhi over the years. Expressing confidence about the books reception, the Congress spokesperson said he expected it to become a bestseller. Congress leader Abhishek Dutt described the memoir as a source of inspiration for people going through difficult circumstances, pointing to Sonia Gandhis response to personal attacks by the BJP and the Prime Minister. This book is an inspiration to the people who are going through a difficult time, showing how Madam Gandhi kept her boundaries when the BJP and PM Modi made personal attacks on her. She kept her patience, and it shows her upbringing and the boundaries she maintained. I hope more people will read it and take inspiration from her, he said. The remarks by the Congress leaders come amid the release of Sonia Gandhis memoir, which is expected to offer readers an account of her personal experiences and journey in India.

From Cricketing Heritage to Ranji Revival: Gymkhana Ground Takes Centre Stage
The 202627 Ranji Trophy season has started, bringing news of another venue change. As the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad undergoes a major revamp, Gymkhana Ground has been assigned to host all of Hyderabads home matches this season. This marks a return to centre stage for the ground after decades of playing a supporting role in the citys cricketing scene. By the time Hyderabad acquired its modern international cricket stadium at Uppal, Gymkhana had already made its mark. Long before floodlights, giant electronic screens and packed international venues became the face of the game, this ground in the twin city of Secunderabad was at the centre of Hyderabads cricketing life. Now, the historic ground has an opportunity to reclaim its place in the domestic cricket landscape. Cricket has been played at Gymkhana since the 19th century, with British military officers, local Nawabs and members of the Parsi community playing here. In 1931, it hosted its first first-class match, between Hyderabad and the Maharaj Kumar of Vizianagrams XI, as part of the Moin-ud-Dowlah Gold Cup tournament. Three years later, the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) became the first official overseas team to play in Hyderabad. The visiting side included two celebrated English batsmen, Jack Hobbs and Herbert Sutcliffe. This established Gymkhana as a recognised address on the cricket map. Gymkhanas history is also inseparable from the Moin-ud-Dowlah Gold Cup, established in 193031 under the patronage of Nawab Moin-ud-Dowlah. This invitational tournament brought together leading Indian cricketers and visiting international players. For years, the ground was closely associated with the Secunderabad Union Club (SUC), formed in 1888, and was widely known as the SUC Grounds, although the name Gymkhana remained more familiar. In the 1960s, when the racecourse moved to Malakpet, the Andhra Pradesh Sports Council and the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) leased the cricket, hockey and football grounds from the Cantonment Board, strengthening the venues role in organised sport. In 197879, the HCA shifted its headquarters from Lal Bahadur Shastri Stadium, formerly known as Fateh Maidan, to Gymkhana. This turned the ground into an administrative centre, a training base and an important hub for the development of Hyderabad cricket. It hosted matches during the 1997 Womens Cricket World Cup and has also staged the Irani Cup. Its association with touring teams continued well into the modern era. Gymkhana became a regular venue for Ranji Trophy cricket from the 198283 season, although major matches had previously been played at Fateh Maidan. Its history also reflects Hyderabads changing fortunes. The team reached the Ranji Trophy final in 198687 and won the Irani Cup in 198788. Gymkhanas story would be incomplete without a mention of a major controversy. In September 2022, thousands of fans turned up to obtain physical tickets for the IndiaAustralia T20I scheduled at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. The situation turned chaotic, a stampede-like crush developed, and the police resorted to a lathi-charge. More than 20 people were reported injured. The incident triggered allegations of mismanagement and black marketing, along with a police case against the HCA over alleged cheating and negligence. With Gymkhana entrusted with Hyderabads entire home Ranji Trophy programme this season, the HCA has undertaken substantial renovation work. Under the cricket operations team led by former India international Ambati Rayudu, all nine pitches have been relaid: four with black soil, three with red soil and two with a 5050 mixture. Other modifications have also been carried out at the ground. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories The return of all Hyderabads home fixtures to Gymkhana offers the venue a chance to reconnect with its past while meeting the demands of modern first-class cricket. Uppal may be Hyderabads modern international showcase, but Gymkhana remains one of the places where the citys cricketing identity was formed.
