Opposition YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) emerged second biggest party after the TDP to wing 76 ZPTCs and 1,711 MPTCs. The State Election Commission (SEC) on Sunday night released the final results of the counting. Polling was conducted for 582 ZPTCs and 7,767 MPTCs in 28 districts on November 5 following the declaration of 77 and 2,051 ZPTCs and MPTCs respectively as unanimously elected. The TDP and its allies, the Jana Sena Party (JSP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) captured majority of the seats. The TDP emerged as the largest party, winning 406 ZPTCs and 4,806 MPTCs. The JSP led by Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan bagged 73 ZPTCs and 938 MPTCs. The BJP won 20 ZPTCs and 117 MPTCs. The YSRCP, which was crushed by the ruling TDP-led coalition in the urban local body elections last week, performed better, winning 76 ZPTCs and 1,711 MPTCs. The Congress drew a blank while CPI-M won one ZPTC and 15 MPTCs. Six Independents emerged victorious in ZPTC polls while 162 Independents were elected in MPTC elections.

TDP also won 26 out of 30 ZPTCs in SPSR Nellore district while YSRCP could win just two, continued their stellar performance in the elections to the Zilla and Mandal Parishad Territorial Constituencies (ZPTCs and MPTCs) after crushing the YSRCP in the Urban Local Body (ULB) elections. The YSRCP leaders alleged that the counting of votes polled in the ZPTCs and MPTCs was fraught with irregularities, and the State Election Commission ignored their complaints. YSRCP Chief Jagan Mohan Reddy alleged that irregularities continue to taint the local body elections under Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu. He claimed that like during the municipal election count, officials during the ZPTC and MPTC vote count were also pressured to manipulate results in several districts. Democracy is being undermined at every turn. Chandrababu Naidu may have won the election, but he has suffered a moral defeat. We may have lost the election, but we have won the hearts of the people, Jagan Mohan Reddy said. Power may help someone win an election, but it cannot earn the people's trust. Democracy may be suppressed, but the people's aspirations cannot be silenced. I salute our party leaders and workersespecially the womenwho stood firm in defence of democracy despite obstacles, attacks and intimidation. We will continue this struggle with even greater determination, the former Chief Minister added.

Illegal US migration: Indians remain in top 3
Indian nationals continued to rank as the third-largest group encountered by US border authorities in the 2026 fiscal year, despite a steep decline in illegal migration attempts following President Donald Trump's crackdown on unauthorised immigration.US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data show that 30,528 Indian nationals were encountered by border authorities in FY26, which ran from October 2025 to September 2026. Only Mexican and Canadian nationals recorded higher numbers, with 1,23,439 and 37,700 encounters, respectively.India ranked ahead of China, which recorded 29,818 encounters. The figures indicate that attempts by Indians to enter the US illegally continue despite tougher enforcement and the risks associated with the journey, commonly known as the 'donkey route'.According to sources familiar with illegal immigration networks, a sizeable number of those attempting the journey are from Gujarat, Punjab and Andhra Pradesh. Within Gujarat, people from North and Central Gujarat continue to figure prominently among those seeking to enter the US through unauthorised routes.Illegal migration encounters from India fall nearly 64%135630363The number of Indian nationals encountered at US borders has declined considerably over the past three fiscal years. US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) recorded 90,415 encounters involving Indians in FY24. This fell to 34,146 in FY25 and further to 30,528 in FY26, marking a decline of nearly 64% from FY24.The reduction coincides with the Trump administration's tougher immigration enforcement measures. Trump returned to the White House on January 20, 2025, after winning the November 2024 presidential election, with a crackdown on illegal immigration among his administration's major priorities.The decline in Indian encounters is part of a wider fall in unauthorised migration to the US. CBP recorded 3,82,490 border encounters across nationalities in FY26, nearly 45% below the 6,91,906 recorded in FY25. The corresponding figures were considerably higher in FY24 and FY23, at around 29 lakh and 32 lakh, respectively.Among other nationalities, Guatemala accounted for 18,319 encounters, followed by the Philippines with 17,985 and Honduras with 13,005. Brazil recorded 6,285, Russia 5,327 and Venezuela 4,945. Nationals of other countries, grouped, accounted for 63,678 encounters.Gujarat continues to bear the human cost135630381The continuing attempts to reach the US illegally have also resulted in fatalities and disappearances. At least 11 people from Gujarat died and another 11 were injured or went missing between 2022 and 2025 while attempting the journey.One of the most devastating incidents occurred on January 19, 2022, when four members of a family from Dingucha village in Gujarat's Gandhinagar district froze to death near the US-Canada border. Jagdish Patel, 30, his wife Vaishali, 37, and their children Vihang, 13, and Dharmik, aged three, were found dead near Emerson in Manitoba, Canada, around 10 metres from the border. The family had been travelling on foot when they were caught in a blizzard.On March 28, 2023, four members of a family from Manekpura village in Mehsana district drowned after a boat capsized. Another tragedy occurred on May 5, 2025, when two children from Mehsana drowned off the California coast.Despite these incidents, illegal migration networks continue to attract people with the promise of better financial prospects in the US.A source familiar with the networks said, Though people have been shunted out of the US through Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) crackdown, a large number of Gujaratis mainly from North and Central Gujarat are sneaking into America for better financial security.The source added that attempts to enter through the Mexican and Canadian borders were continuing, with individuals reportedly paying between Rs 80 lakh and Rs 1.25 crore for the journey.- Reference taken from TOI

Andhra Pradesh CM visits cyclone-hit Guntur, Bapatla districts
Digital Desk | Amaravati, Nov 6 (IANS) Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu on Friday visited cyclone-affected areas in Guntur and Bapatla districts and assured assistance to all affected people. He conducted a field-level inspection of crops damaged and fields submerged due to the cyclone Murasu. The Chief Minister assured that a comprehensive assessment of the damage caused by the cyclones is underway, and pledged that the government would continue its efforts until every affected individual receives assistance. He stated that crop insurance and input subsidies would provide some relief to farmers by compensating for a portion of their lost investment. During his visit to Bapatla district, he walked from Jillellamudi to Returu village to personally understand the hardships faced by the farmers. CM Naidu spoke to farmers, officials, and public representatives along the way to assess the extent of the damage caused by the cyclone. He stopped frequently to engage in direct conversations with the farmers. Walking along the embankments of irrigation canals and field channels, the Chief Minister inspected the submerged paddy fields. He inquired about the investments made by the farmers, their projected yields, and the specific details of their losses. At the Jillellamudi bridge, the Chief Minister inspected the intensity of the floodwaters. Farmers and officials explained how the surge in the stream had caused surrounding areas to become submerged. In Returu village, the Chief Minister walked through the area to inspect paddy fields submerged in floodwaters. The farmers expressed their distress, explaining that they had cultivated their crops after receiving irrigation water through the Pattiseema project; however, just as they were anticipating a good harvest, a cyclone struck, causing severe losses. The Chief Minister inquired about the investments the farmers had made in their crops and whether they had secured crop insurance. It was explained that crop insurance and government input subsidies serve as a vital support system for farmers during natural disasters. Officials were instructed to raise greater awareness among farmers regarding crop insurance. Plans should be devised to ensure water is provided ahead of the regular cultivation season, allowing farmers to sow crops early and thereby reduce the risk posed by cyclones. It was noted that the completion of the Polavaram project would create further opportunities for early-season cultivation. Addressing people in Returu, the Chief Minister said that the state had suffered significant damage due to the cyclones. He expressed deep concern that these cyclones struck just as crops were ready for harvest, dealing a severe blow to the farming community. CM Naidu noted that farmerswho were already grappling with the effects of El Ninohad managed to cultivate their crops thanks to irrigation water provided via the Pattiseema project, but the recent cyclone caused extensive losses. He added that proactive measures taken by the government helped mitigate much of the potential damage. The cyclone had a particularly severe impact on the Guntur, Bapatla and Prakasam districts. He urged the public not to take cyclone warnings lightly and to remain vigilant whenever such alerts are issued. The Chief Minister noted that 30,000 electricity poles, which had fallen due to one cyclone, have been restored, while another 10,000 poles were damaged by a subsequent cyclone. He added that efforts are underway to rapidly restore power supply to aquaculture ponds. He further revealed that assistance is being sought from the states of Telangana, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu for cyclone relief operations. CM Naidu mentioned that the Central government has been kept informed about the impact of the cyclones, and that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also inquired about the situation.

APPSC Main Exam case: Incriminating documents seized during ED searches
Digital Desk | Hyderabad, Nov 5 (IANS) The Enforcement Directorate (ED) seized incriminating documents, digital devices and other records during the search operations at seven premises in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh in the case relating to the evaluation of the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC) Group-I Main Examination evaluation scam, ED officials said on Thursday. The ED's Hyderabad Zonal Office on Wednesday conducted search operations under Section 17 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002. The central probe agency said in statement on Thursday that during the search operations incriminating documents, digital devices and other records relating to the scam were found and seized. The searches were conducted at the premises of retired IPS officer P. Seetharamanjaneyulu, the then APPSC Secretary; Camsign Media Pvt. Ltd., the private party to which the work of manual evaluation was entrusted, and its Managing Director P. Madhusudhana Rao; Aavasa Resort Haailand in Chinakakani village of Andhra Pradesh's Guntur district, being the premises at which the answer scripts were kept and the evaluation exercise was carried out. The searches were also conducted at the premises of TruGrader Services, a division of Stone Media Advisory Services Pvt. Ltd., which had conducted the earlier digital evaluation for APPSC, its Managing Director Akella Peri Srinivasa Rao, and Mahamkali Raghuram, who was engaged in connection with the evaluation work. The ED said it recorded the statements of the accused persons, including Seetharamanjaneyulu. Property documents recovered during the search are under verification, it added. The ED initiated an investigation on the basis of FIR registered by the Andhra Pradesh Police under Sections 320 and 120-B of the Indian Penal Code, which are scheduled offences under the PMLA. The FIR alleges irregularities in the manual evaluation of the answer scripts of the APPSC Group-I Main Examination, in the course of which an amount of Rs 1,14,32,312 is alleged to have been paid to a private party. It is alleged that following the orders of the High Court of Andhra Pradesh in 2021, setting aside the digital evaluation of the answer scripts and directing manual evaluation, the work of manual evaluation was entrusted to Camsign Media Pvt. Ltd. from November 27, 2021 to February 19, 2022, when there was no regular chairman of APPSC. The answer scripts were thereafter moved out of official premises to Haailand Resorts at Chinakakani village in Guntur district, and kept there for 84 days between December 2021 and February 2022. It is alleged that no genuine manual evaluation of the answer scripts was in fact carried out, and that the marks of the earlier digital evaluation were instead mapped as manual evaluation marks. On January 1, 2022, the exercise was publicly stated to be in its final stages, and an amount of Rs 1,14,32,312 was released to private party through a cheque. The said exercise was thereafter discarded in its entirety. The answer scripts were retrieved and re-evaluated at official premises under CCTV surveillance after February 19, 2022, and the final results and the selection list were declared on the basis of that subsequent evaluation. The consideration of Rs 1,14,32,312 thus stands paid for a service alleged not to have been rendered, and is prima facie proceeds of crime within the meaning of Section 2 (1) (u) of the PMLA, the ED added.

Centre launches 9th tranche of e-auction for critical mineral blocks
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 5 (IANS) The Union Mines Ministry on Thursday launched the ninth tranche of e-auction for critical and strategic mineral blocks, together with the third tranche of the auction for Grant of Exploration Licence (EL) blocks. The launch was officiated by Union Coal and Mines Minister G. Kishan Reddy, with Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant as Chief Guest. A total of 20 critical and strategic mineral blocks are being put up for auction in the ninth tranche. Five critical mineral blocks are located in Chhattisgarh, while Rajasthan, Telangana, and West Bengal account for three each. Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra each have two blocks, followed by Bihar and Andhra Pradesh with one each. The blocks contain critical minerals such as graphite, vanadium, gallium, titanium, tungsten, and scandium. These are used as critical elements in clean energy technologies, electric mobility, advanced manufacturing, fertilisers, defence, aerospace, electronics, and other strategic industries, thereby strengthening India's mineral security and supporting the country's energy transition, an official statement said. In the previous eight tranches, 100 unique critical and strategic mineral blocks were offered, of which 64 have been successfully auctioned. Alongside the ninth tranche, the Ministry of Mines also launched the third tranche of the auction of exploration licences. Exploration Licences, introduced through Section 10BA of the MMDR Act, enable private investment in the exploration of 29 critical and deep-seated minerals specified in the Seventh Schedule of the Act, opening up exploration to private industry even before mining begins. So far, 11 EL blocks have been successfully auctioned in two tranches. The government has notified the Mineral (Auction) Third Amendment Rules, 2026 on October 16, reducing the minimum number of Technically Qualified Bidders required for the second round from three to two for Part D minerals. The change, built into the tender documents for both tranches, addresses a key reason blocks have gone unsold. Letters of Intent will now be issued automatically through the Unified Mining Portal. These build on earlier reforms, including the Mineral (Auction) Second Amendment Rules, 2025 and Insurance Surety Bonds, aimed at improving ease of doing business and investor confidence. The sale of tender documents for both auction processes commenced on Thursday. The last date for purchase of the tender document is January 1, 2027 (by 5 p.m. IST), and the last date for submission of bids (Technical Bid and Initial Price Offer) is January 7, 2027. Critical Mineral Blocks (Composite Licence and Mining Lease) will be auctioned online through a transparent two-stage ascending forward auction, where the bidder quoting the highest percentage of revenue share wins. Exploration Licence Blocks will be auctioned online through a transparent two-stage descending reverse auction, where the bidder quoting the lowest percentage share of the revenue share of the future lessee wins. Details are available on the MSTC e-auction platform at: https://www.mstcecommerce.com/auctionhome/mlcln/
Jagan Reddy accuses TDP-led coalition of subverting democratic process
Digital Desk | Tadepalli, Nov 5 (IANS) Former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and YSRCP President YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has slammed the coalition government for its 'manipulative' election process and for 'subverting' the democratic process like never before. The Opposition, however, has fought back and exposed the follies of the ruling coalition, he said. Speaking to the media here on Thursday, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy said the entire electoral process had been hijacked by the Chandrababu Naidu government, from nominations to counting. He said the governments victory in urban local body polls was a moral defeat, while the Opposition had won the hearts of the people, even though the mandate had been subverted. The entire election process was hijacked by Chandrababu and his people, mocking democracy at every stagefrom nominations to scrutiny, withdrawals, polling and even counting. Such an exercise does not merit being called an election, as it was neither free nor fair, he said. He alleged that in the ZPTC and MPTC polls, the script was the same as in the municipal polls, with the police and ruling party goons preventing Opposition candidates from filing nominations. This was followed by rejection of nominations during scrutiny, attacks on our polling agents, rigging and cycling of votes, he said. Such an election is a scar on the face of democracy. The ruling party resorted to all manner of malafide practices in local body elections across the State, from Tekkali and Kotabommali to Darsi, Kanigiri, Palamaner, and the Vemula and Lingala mandals of the Pulivendula constituency. Voters were prevented from exercising their franchise, rigging continued unabated, and the police acted as TDP agents, using force against voters, he said. The former Chief Minister alleged that despite the Supreme Courts directives, there has been no change in the functioning of the coalition government. YSRCP cadre and booth agents were attacked with petrol bombs, he said. Showing clips of violence during the local body and municipal elections, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy asked why anyone would vote for Chandrababu, who had failed all sections of societyfrom women and farmers to youthby not honouring his promises. In the municipal polls, the polling percentage and figures were fudged: the numbers were inflated at the counting tables, far exceeding the figures officially announced after polling. He has put Andhra Pradesh up for sale by handing over medical colleges and ports to private parties, while disregarding the common man despite the twin cyclones that wreaked havoc in the State, YS Jagan said. The manner in which the elections were held could serve as a case study in electoral reforms, as there is enough material, he said. The YSRCP chief stated that while it was Safe Andhra during their term, people are now calling for Save Andhra because they are vexed with the ruling coalition. Like Shakunis magic dice in the Mahabharata, Chandrababu has rolled the official machinery in favour of the coalition. But we fought bravely and exposed the misdeeds at the national level, he added
