What you need to know as Elon Musk's lawsuit against Sam Altman begins
In a few short days, jury selection will begin in the long-awaited Musk v. Altman case. At the end of that process, an Oakland federal court will task nine regular people with deciding if OpenAI defrauded Elon Musk when it announced, and recently completed, its reorganization to become a more traditional for-profit business . More than just being the venue where two billionaires will air their grievances against one another in public, the trial has the potential to reshape the AI industry. How did we get here? Musk first sued OpenAI in 2024 , but the seed of the dispute was planted when Sam Altman emailed the billionaire on the evening of May 25, 2015. Been thinking a lot about whether its possible to stop humanity from developing AI. I think the answer is most definitely not, Altman wrote at the time. If its going to happen anyway, it seems like it would be good for someone other than Google to do it first. Any thoughts on whether it would be good for [Y Combinator] to start a Manhattan Project for AI? Probably worth a conversation, Musk responded a couple of hours later. That same year, OpenAI announced itself to the world , with Altman and Musk as co-chairs of the new joint venture. OpenAI is a nonprofit artificial intelligence research company. Our goal is to advance digital intelligence in the way that is mostly likely to benefit humanity as a whole, unconstrained by a need to generate financial return. Since our research is free from financial obligations, we can better focus on a positive human impact. If were to believe OpenAIs telling of the events that followed , by 2017, almost everyone at the company, including Musk, agreed that a for-profit entity had to be part of the next phase for OpenAI, due to the enormous amount of investment needed to pursue its original mission. At some point before Musk left OpenAIs board of directors in February 2018, OpenAI claims he demanded full control of the company, with the intent to eventually merge it with Tesla. Following Musks departure, OpenAI created its for-profit arm in 2019, which at the time was organized under a capped-profit structure designed to limit investor returns to 100x, with any excess windfalls flowing to the companys nonprofit. The idea being that if OpenAI achieved artificial general intelligence, its nonprofit would be the greatest beneficiary. However, after the success of ChatGPT in 2022, that structure became problematic for OpenAI as the company sought to raise ever more capital, and as part of its $6.6 billion funding round in October 2024, it reportedly agreed to a less-than-two-year deadline to free its for-profit from control of the nonprofit. At the heart of this trial is that OpenAI began as a non-profit organization, and then decided that it needed to be a for-profit organization in order to raise the enormous sums of money it needed to develop the technology it wanted to create, explains Professor Michael Dorff , executive director of the Lowell Milken Institute for Business Law and Policy at UCLA. That is a very troublesome transition under the law. Earlier this year, following protracted negotiations with Microsoft (the for-profits largest investor) and the state attorneys general of California and Delaware, OpenAI announced the successful reorganization of its corporate structure. As things stand, the for-profit is now a public benefit corporation, making it more appealing to investors looking for an uncomplicated return structure. Meanwhile, the nonprofit now known as the OpenAI Foundation holds equity in the for-profit arm, a stake valued at $130 billion at the time the agreement was announced. At the end of last year, Musk filed an injunction to prevent the reorganization from going through but failed. As an early donor to OpenAI, Musk will not see a single cent of money come his way when the company holds an initial public offering, on account of the fact donations are made with no expectation of any return. Musk has therefore argued OpenAIs founding group, including CEO Sam Altman and President Greg Brockman, defrauded him as a donor. Determining the exact amount Musk contributed to OpenAI was an early question during pre-trial discovery. You see, Musk has greatly exaggerated his monetary contributions. As recently as March 2023 , the billionaire regularly claimed he had donated about $100 million to OpenAI. He later cut that estimate by half, telling CNBC in May 2023 : Im not sure the exact number but its some number on the order of $50 million. In recent court filings, that number was again revisited to $38 million , and its the number that currently stands. Whats at stake for OpenAI? In his original complaint, Musks legal team tried to throw the kitchen sink at OpenAI, says Professor Dorff. In subsequent filings, Musks lawyers narrowed down their clients desired set of outcomes to a handful of remedies. Should the jury rule in his favor, Musk has requested the court force Altman and Brockman to step down, and for OpenAI to restructure as a bona fide public charity that operates as the nonprofit it was intended to be, consistent with its founding charter and mission. He's also made the highly unusual request that any monetary damages which would be awarded to him in the verdict be redirected to OpenAI's own nonprofit arm. According to Professor Dorff, its highly unlikely Musk will be able to undo OpenAIs reorganization. For one, District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers has already signaled her reluctance to do just that and its her, not the jury, who will get to decide if thats an appropriate remedy. Effectively, Musk is asking the judge to unscramble the eggs of a complicated corporate restructuring. There was a moment where that might have been possible, when the attorneys general of Delaware and California intervened and came to the current compromise, explains Dorff. Whether you agree or disagree with what the AGs decided to do, I think it's unlikely the court will feel it's appropriate to undo that compromise because of all the high government officials involved who, in theory, had all of the right incentives. When Musk filed his request for a preliminary injunction to stop OpenAIs conversion to a for-profit company, the judge said the request was extraordinary and rarely granted . The fact Musk is deeply involved with OpenAI's competitor xAI may also weigh heavily on the judge's mind, Droff adds. Far more uncertain is how Musks other demands could play out, since the jury will decide if OpenAI is guilty of defrauding him. According to Dorff, most high-stakes business cases end with the two sides settling because of the risk of involving a jury in the outcome. I just dont see that happening here given the tenor of the dispute, he says. It seems unlikely either side will settle. If the case does end in a jury decision, it will then be up to those nine people, with guidance from the judge, to decide on monetary damages. That will be very difficult to figure out because there is a maximalist version of this, and a minimalist version of this. Theyre very different numbers and the result could be anywhere in between two, says Dorff. Musks legal team is seeking a disgorgement of between $65.5 billion and $109.43 billion from OpenAI (and between $13.3 billion and $25.06 billion from Microsoft, which is a co-defendant in the case).In a worse case scenario, Professor Dorff suggests Altman might lose the confidence of OpenAIs board, costing him his position as CEO. He might even be forced to write some checks to settle the disgorgements. Dorff suspects OpenAI would love the minimalist version where Musk is rewarded his $38 million donation back (and it ends up with the companys non-profit). Should some other disgruntled donors emerge to sue OpenAI for fraud, the Musk v. Altman case would make it easier to litigate those cases, given the map has been drawn as to which legal claims are likely to succeed, says Dorff. However, those would amount to traffic tickets for OpenAI. Whatever happens next, it should be an eventful trial. With public testimonies from Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, former OpenAI board member and Musk confidant Shivon Zilis and even Altman himself a likelihood, we'll at the very least be treated to a wealth of formerly private communications and some new piece of vocabulary between some of the richest people in the tech space.

DYSS J&K hosts night football match with anti-drug message
Jammu, Apr 24:It wasnt just a football match. It was a statement. Under the floodlights of Parade Ground Jammu, the Directorate of Youth Services and Sports J&K organised a friendly football night match as part of the UT administrations 100-day intensive campaign across the Union Territory to make Jammu & Kashmir Nasha Mukt (drug-free). As per a DYSS statement issued on Friday, The idea was simple: give young people a stage where winning means more than just a scoreboard. Two local clubs Warrior Club and Spartan Club faced off in what turned out to be a competitive, clean game. Warrior Club edged past Spartan Club with a 20 finish, but on a night like this, the result felt secondary to the reason everyone had gathered. The event was kicked off by Divisional Commissioner Jammu, Ramesh Kumar, alongside Deputy Commissioner Jammu, Rakesh Minhas. The dignitaries were received by Director General YSS, Anuradha Gupta. Others who were present in the event included Vinakshi Koul, Joint Director YSS Jammu, Megha Boagia, Deputy Director (Planning/Activity) and Sunil Kotwal Accounts Officer of the Department. Director General YSS, delivered an impressive welcome address, setting a reflective tone for the evening. Before sharing his insightful speech, Divisional Commissioner led a pledge ceremony. This campaign is not just about awareness. Its about action. Games like these reclaim young lives, he said, as players stood listening under the lights. After the match, medals and trophies were given to both teams not just for the goals, but for showing up and playing clean. A small evening. A simple match. But in J&Ks push for a drug-free future, nights like these matter.

Sniffer dog squads deployed to intensify crackdown against drugs in Srinagar
Srinagar, Apr 24: In a sharp escalation of enforcement under the ongoing 100-day Nasha Mukt Jammu & Kashmir Abhiyan, Srinagar Police has deployed its sniffer Dog Squad across multiple strategic locations in the district to intensify the crackdown on drug trafficking and peddling. Trained sniffer dogs, including notable units like the one named Ennie, are now actively positioned at key checkpoints, busy intersections such as Jahangir Chowk, and other vulnerable points. These highly skilled canines conduct on-the-spot vehicle inspections and searches to detect concealed narcotics, significantly boosting the polices ability to identify and apprehend drug peddlers swiftly. This proactive measure forms a core part of Srinagar Polices zero-tolerance strategy against the drug menace. Officials emphasize that the deployment enhances ground-level surveillance and strengthens efforts to dismantle supply networks that have plagued the region. The Nasha Mukt Jammu & Kashmir Abhiyan was launched on April 11, 2026, by the UT administration under the leadership of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha. It aims to combat the rising tide of drug abuse through a dual approach: rigorous enforcement against traffickers and comprehensive awareness, prevention, and rehabilitation initiatives targeting youth and communities. Jammu and Kashmir has witnessed a surge in drug-related cases, with law enforcement agencies seizing over 68,000 kg of narcotics in the last five years. The campaign features high-impact public outreach, school and college programs, e-pledges, counseling services (including the helpline 14446), and coordinated drives involving police, district administrations, and civil society. A major launch event is planned in Srinagar in the first week of May.56 Similar deployments of narcotic dog squads have been reported across Kashmir Valley districts, including Shopian and Anantnag, where canines assist in checkpoint searches and cordon operations to target hidden contraband like charas and other substances. In Shopian, for instance, the canine unit works alongside security forces to bolster anti-trafficking efforts. Police officials describe the sniffer dog deployment as a game-changer for field-level detection, allowing rapid identification of concealed drugs that might otherwise evade manual checks. This has already led to intensified vehicle and passenger screening, acting as a strong deterrent for those involved in the illicit trade. Parallel to enforcement, awareness campaigns are in full swing. These include community meetings, padyatras, mega IEC (Information, Education, Communication) drives covering panchayats and educational institutions, and youth engagement programs. The goal is to foster a collective societal resolve against drug abuse while providing rehabilitation support for affected individuals. Srinagar Police, along with counterparts in other districts, maintains a firm stance: strict action against peddlers, financiers, and networks, coupled with intelligence-sharing and public participation. SSP Srinagar has underscored the need for community vigilance during the 100-day period to track and monitor the entire drug ecosystem. Srinagar Police has appealed to citizens to extend full cooperation by sharing actionable information about suspicious activities or drug-related networks. Your vigilance can help us build a drug-free society, a senior officer stated, reaffirming the forces commitment to eradicating the menace. The 100-day campaign, aligned with the national Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyan, is seen as a transformative movement to safeguard homes, schools, and communities. With enforcement tools like sniffer dogs now actively in play and awareness efforts reaching every doorstep, authorities express confidence that sustained pressure will yield tangible results in curbing drug trafficking and abuse in Kashmir.
6 animals die of starvation as accused flee locked house
In a heart-wrenching incident in Rohtas district, six innocent animals met a tragic end after being left to starve in a sealed home by suspects fleeing a violent land dispute. The horrific events of April 2 saw a fatal shooting, and in the chaos, two cows, two buffaloes, and two goats were abandoned to succumb to hunger and thirst.

The mountains of Kashmir do not just hold snow; they hold secrets. They stand as silent sentinels over a valley that has seen beauty and bloodshed in equal measure. As we mark the anniversary of the tragic terrorist attack in Pahalgam, the question hangs heavy in the crisp mountain air, echoing in the hearts of millions: Is Kashmir safe? It is a question that cuts deeper than statistics or security advisories. It touches the very soul of a region that has, for centuries, defined the meaning of warmth and welcome. On April 22nd, the calendar marks a date that has etched itself into the collective memory of the valley as a day of infamy. It was on this day that the serenity of the meadows was shattered by the brutal act of terror. Twenty innocent tourists, all men, separated from the women folk in a cruel prelude to execution were gunned down. They had come seeking the paradise promised in travel brochures; they found instead the cold brutality of a senseless ideology. The immediate aftermath of the Pahalgam massacre was not just about security protocols and investigations; it was about a profound, suffocating silence that descended upon the valley. It was the silence of a mother who loses a child, the silence of a host who failed to protect a guest. In that silence, the people of Kashmir gathered not in angry protests, but in sombre candlelight marches. There were no chants of division, only the flickering flames of grief visible on every Kashmiri face. It was a moment of reckoning. The tragedy was not viewed as a political point to be scored, but as a personal loss. The local ethos of Kashmiriyat, the syncretic culture of tolerance and hospitality had been assaulted, and the Kashmiri people mourned the violation of their sacred tradition of Mehmaan-Nawazi (hospitality). To understand the weight of this tragedy, one must understand what Kashmir stands to lose. For decades, the region has bled, but the recent years had brought a glimmer of hope. The Kashmiri had begun to trust the list of trust, the burgeoning business, the return of tourists, the vibrant markets of Srinagar, and the shikaras gliding peacefully on Dal Lake. There was a desperate, palpable hope for a future built on peace and prosperity. The valley was open for business, and the world was finally returning. In one dark moment on April 22nd, all of that was shattered. The noise of gunfire silenced the hum of commerce and the whispers of hope. In the shadow of such tragedy, the mind inevitably turns to the question: Who did this, and who gained? The perpetrator was not a freedom fighter, for no fight for freedom is won by slaughtering tourists. This was an act of strategic vandalism. The trail of responsibility leads across the border to a neighbour that has historically viewed Kashmirs peace as an existential threat to its own military narrative. It is a painful, twisted irony of geopolitics that while Kashmir mourned its guests, the architects of this misery were celebrating their gains. The ugly truth of terror is that it is often a business, a cynical calculation of power. While Kashmir lost its innocent sons and daughters, and the tourism industry lay in ruins, the military-civilian establishment in the neighbourhood reaped the harvest of hatred. The strategy was clear: destabilize the region, provoke a backlash, and validate the existence of a security state. In this deadly game, the losers were obvious, Imran Khan, a leader who perhaps represented a different political trajectory, found his position weakened by the chaos. Conversely, the Generals and the Sharifs found an instant surge in popularity, a consolidation of power wrapped in the flag of nationalism. They were welcomed in the corridors of power, even seen selling stones in the White House, a metaphorical imagery of trading the rocks of conflict for political legitimacy. Today, they stand as the frontline state, negotiating with Iran and engaging in high-stakes diplomacy, their position secured by the blood spilled in Pahalgam. But while the geopolitical chessboard shifts, the question remains for the common man, the traveller, and the host: Is Kashmir safe? The answer is complex, emotional, and rooted in the resilience of its people. Safety is not merely the absence of violence; it is the presence of trust. The tragedy of April 22nd was an aberration, a breach of trust orchestrated by outsiders who do not know the meaning of a guest. The Kashmiri people, from the horseman in Pahalgam to the houseboat owner in Nigeen, were the first victims of this terror. Their grief was genuine because their livelihood and their honour are tied to the safety of their guests. We must learn the harsh lessons. The first lesson is that terror cannot be allowed to dictate the narrative. If we stop traveling to Kashmir, the terrorists win. If the houseboats remain empty and the meadows echo with silence instead of laughter, the architects of the attack achieve their goal. The most potent weapon against terror is not just the gun of the soldier, but the presence of the tourist. It is the continued embrace of the valleys beauty. Kashmir has been famous for centuries not just for its landscapes, but for its open arms. Historically, the valley has been a sanctuary for saints, scholars, and travelers from across the world. That DNA of hospitality cannot be erased by a single act of cowardice. The fight against terror must be fought with tourism. This is not a naive call to ignore risks; it is a call to courage. It is a demand that we do not let the dark intentions of a few overshadow the bright spirit of the many. When a tourist visits Kashmir today, they are not just buying a holiday; they are making a statement. They are saying that the bonds of humanity are stronger than the divisions of politics. They are helping the local economy thrive, ensuring that the youth of the valley see a future in entrepreneurship and peace rather than in the crosshairs of conflict. The greatest defeat for the neighbour who sponsored the attack is a bustling market in Srinagar and a crowded gondola in Gulmarg. However, this fight requires a commitment from the administration as well. The safety of tourists cannot be taken for granted. The lapses that allowed the Pahalgam tragedy to occur must be scrutinized and rectified. Security apparatus must be robust yet unobtrusive, ensuring that the visitor feels protected but not policed. The intelligence grid must be strengthened to intercept the digital and physical trails of terror that emanate from across the border. The state must ensure that every street, every meadow, and every corner of the valley breathes safety. But beyond the guns and the guards, the true shield of Kashmir is its people. The candle march following the attack was not a mere formality; it was a testament to the conscience of the valley. It showed that the Kashmiri rejects the ideology of hate. It is this rejection that must be amplified. The world needs to see that the Kashmiri wants peace, not because they are forced to, but because their survival depends on it. As we remember the twenty souls who were snatched away on that fateful April day, let us not wallow in despair. Let us use their memory as a fuel to rebuild. Let us resolve that the infamous date will not define the future of the valley. The tourist who died had come to love the land; the best tribute to them is to ensure that the land remains worthy of that love. Is Kashmir safe? It is as safe as our resolve to keep it so. It is safe because the people who live there are tired of war and hungry for peace. It is safe because the hospitality they offer comes from the heart, and no terrorist bullet can pierce that spirit. The neighbour may plot, the generals may scheme, and the stones may be sold in distant capitals, but the valley will endure. The path forward is clear. We must fight the terror that seeks to isolate Kashmir with the tourism that integrates it with the world. We must meet the hatred that separates men from women with the love that brings families together. We must answer the silence of the graveyard with the song of the boatman. Kashmir is safe for those who believe in its magic, for those who stand in solidarity with its people, and for those who refuse to let fear dictate their footsteps. The valley is open, the hearts are heavy but welcoming, and the mountains are calling. It is our duty to answer that call, for the sake of the memory of the lost, and for the hope of the living.
IPL 2026: It Was Always Coming, Says Sudharsan After Scoring A Century Against RCB
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Sai Sudharsan played a calm yet strong innings, leading Gujarat Titans to a solid score of 205/3 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 match at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. After scoring 100 off 58 balls, he said his innings was as much about finishing well as about finding form. It was always coming. I was touching the ball well in the last few innings and was really grateful to God. Really happy to contribute to the team. I think with the level of communication we understood it was two-paced and sticky, and it was a natural instinct to take the game deeper. The left-handed batter had a challenging start as Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Josh Hazlewood found early movement, beating his outside edge and concerning him with bounce. A fortunate edge for four helped him settle in, but once the conditions improved, Sudharsan picked up the pace. He started finding boundaries with accuracy and hit the first six of the innings in the fifth over. He dominated the powerplay, reaching 41 off 27 balls as GT scored 57/0, before smoothly moving into the middle overs. Combining smart aggression with effective strike rotation, he reached his half-century in 33 balls. Then, he stepped it up further, taking on Romario Shepherd and Krunal Pandya with inventive shots, including a daring uppercut for six.

I've been starting well but not finishing well, so it was more than just a century for me. I didn't try to take too much control of the innings and let go. I let it go really well today. I personally feel it is a really good score for the bowlers. Not so easy to play shots as it's not so true. Article Source: IANS

The Latest: Trump orders military to shoot and kill' Iranian small boats choking Strait of Hormuz
Washington, Apr 24: US President Donald Trump has ordered the U.S. military to shoot and kill Iranian small boats choking the Strait of Hormuz. In a social media post Thursday morning, he said the military is intensifying its mine clearing efforts in the critical waterway. The move intensified the U.S.-Iran standoff in the Persian Gulf and raised questions about efforts to end the war. Later Thursday, Trump said Israel and Lebanon agreed to extend a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah by three weeks after talks at the White House. The meeting Thursday was the second high-level negotiation between the two countries since last week. The initial 10-day ceasefire, which took effect last Friday, had been due to expire Monday. Meanwhile, the U.S. military said it seized another tanker Thursday associated with smuggling Iranian oil, the Majestic X, in the Indian Ocean, deepening confusion over efforts to end the war. The seizure comes after a day after Iran attacked three cargo ships in the Strait of Hormuz, capturing two of them. Ship-tracking data showed the Majestic X in the Indian Ocean between Sri Lanka and Indonesia. The standoff between the U.S. and Iran has effectively choked off nearly all exports through the Strait of Hormuz, where 20% of the world's traded oil passes in peacetime, with no end in sight. Here is the latest: Lebanese and Israeli ambassadors thank Trump for historic' moment Speaking alongside Trump in the Oval Office, Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Yechiel Leiter said Israel and Lebanon have never been next to each other more than today. Leiter thanked Trump and Vice President JD Vance for a day he said was decades in the making. We are going to keep going, working for peace. Let's hope we will get it as soon as possible, he said. Lebanese Ambassador to the U.S. Nada Hamadeh Moawad thanked Trump for presiding over this historic moment. She added: I think with your help, with your support, we can make Lebanon great again. Trump says it's a must' for Iran to end funding for Hezbollah The president reiterated that the U.S. continues to demand that Iran stop it's backing of proxy groups in the Mideast, including Hezbollah in Lebanon, as part of any deal between Washington and Tehran to end the U.S. war on Iran. Yeah, they'll have to cut that, Trump said to a reporter's question about aiding the militant group. That's a must. US envoy compares Hezbollah to a kid throwing rocks The people of Lebanon, the people of Israel are neighbors and they want to get along, said Mike Huckabee, the U.S. envoy to Israel, who was on hand for the White House talks. They can get along, he said. But it's like neighbors who have a rough little kid living in the neighborhood who keeps throwing rocks at everybody's window. And if the kid will quit throwing rocks, the neighbors can get along and start actually working together. Trump says ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon will be extended by 3 weeks That comes after representatives from both countries met at the White House on Thursday. The meeting went very well, Trump said on his Truth Social platform. The United States is going to work with Lebanon in order to help it protect itself from Hezbollah. Trump said he will host Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Lebanese President Joseph Aoun at the White House in the near future. A 10-day ceasefire was announced on April 16, pausing fighting between Israel and the Hezbollah militant group. As Israel-Lebanon talks are set to start, rocket fire from Hezbollah Israel's military says its air defenses intercepted rocket fire from Lebanon. It came as talks between Lebanese and Israeli officials were set to begin at the White House. Hezbollah said it had fired at the town of Shtula in response to Israeli attacks on the Lebanese village of Yater. Trump says he's not considering using a nuclear weapon against Iran The president appeared perturbed when asked by a reporter if he'd consider deploying nuclear weapons against the Islamic Republic. No, I wouldn't. We don't need it. Why do I need it? Why would a stupid question like that be asked? Trump fumed. He went on, Why would I use a nuclear weapon, when we've totally, in a very conventional way, decimated them without it. No, I wouldn't use it. A nuclear weapon should never be allowed to be used by anybody. Trump say he won't be rushed to end war as Iran negotiations drag on I don't want to rush myself, said Trump, who added that Iran's leadership is in turmoil. Trump in an exchange with reporters in the Oval Office also pushed back against questions that the conflict is exceeding the four-to-six week timeline that he and aides previously set for the war. I took the country out militarily in the first four weeks. I took it out militarily, Trump said. Now all we're doing is sitting back and seeing what deal (we make). And if they don't want to make a deal, then I'll finish it up militarily. Iranian officials refute Trump's claims of leadership rift in the country In Iran there are no hardliners' or moderates'. We are all Iranians and revolutionaries, Iran's president, and Iran's parliament speaker wrote in an almost identical statement on their social media. A spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry called the U.S. president's claim that there was a leadership rift in Iran a form of deflection, with other Iranian officials also claiming on social media that the country was united. Hours earlier, Trump said that Iran is going through a hard time figuring out who their leader is! They just don't know! Since the killing of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei at the beginning of the war, it has been unclear who in Iran wields ultimate authority over its collection of civilian figures and powerful generals who appear to be in charge. Third aircraft carrier arrives in the Middle East The aircraft carrier USS George H.W. Bush has now arrived in U.S. Central Command, making the ship the third aircraft carrier to be present in the Middle East during a tenuous ceasefire in the Iran war. The Bush is now in the Indian Ocean, according to a social media post from the military command. The USS Abraham Lincoln is located in the Arabian Sea and the USS Gerald R. Ford is in the Red Sea. The Bush, which left its home port of Norfolk, Va. at the end of March, proceeded to sail across the Atlantic Ocean but then made the unusual choice to turn south and sail around the Horn of Africa before heading north toward the waters of the Middle East Air defenses in action over Tehran Iran's capital Thursday night saw air defense systems in action as explosions were heard in the western part of the city. State media said the move was against hostile targets, without any elaboration. Witnesses said air defense systems were also heard southwest of the city. Some Iranian media said earlier Wednesday that a test of the systems was in process. Clashes disrupt Israeli Supreme Court hearing Clashes broke out at Israel's Supreme Court during a hearing on petitions calling on the government to establish an official state commission of inquiry into the Oct. 7 attacks. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opposes the investigation. Protesters attempted to break into the courtroom, forcing the proceedings to pause, according to Israeli media reports. The hearing resumed after about 30 minutes. Separate confrontations were reported outside the court between bereaved families holding opposing views. Renowned US-Kuwaiti journalist detained in Kuwait acquitted, press monitor says The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) said Thursday that a Kuwaiti court acquitted journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin on all charges following 52 days of detention. Shihab-Eldin, an award-winning journalist who contributed reporting to major media outlets, was arrested March 3 while visiting his family in Kuwait, CPJ said. The press monitor previously reported that Kuwaiti authorities have charged him with spreading false information, harming national security, and misusing his mobile phone. We are relieved that Ahmed Shihab-Eldin has been found innocent after 52 days in detention, said CPJ CEO Jodie Ginsberg. Trump to join Israel-Lebanon talks at White House A U.S. official says President Donald Trump will greet Israeli and Lebanese diplomats who will meet for a second round of talks on Thursday at the White House. The official said the meeting had been moved from the State Department, where the first round was held last week, to the White House so that Trump could attend. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal administration planning. The talks come as a temporary ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah that was agreed to by the Israeli and Lebanese governments is due to expire. U.S. officials say they hope an extension of the truce can be arranged. Israel appoints envoy to Christian world Israel's foreign minister Gideon Saar has appointed George Deek as special envoy to the Christian world in a bid to strengthen ties with Christian communities, according to a government statement. Deek, a veteran diplomat and former ambassador to Azerbaijan, is a member of Israel's Arab Christian community. Saar said Israel attaches great importance to its relations with Christians worldwide. The appointment comes after a pair of incidents that strained relations with the Christian world. Last month, Israeli police prevented Catholic leaders from celebrating Palm Sunday at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, citing the war with Iran. And an Israeli soldier set off a global firestorm by smashing a statue of Jesus Christ in Lebanon. Two soldiers have been sentenced to jail for their roles in the incident. Pope urges US and Iran to return to peace talks, condemns capital punishment After a trip that was dominated by the very public back and forth between Pope Leo XIV and U.S. President Donald Trump over the war, Leo urged the United States and Iran to return to negotiations. He called for a new culture of peace to replace the recourse to violence whenever conflicts arise. He said the question wasn't whether the Iran regime should change or not. The question should be about how to promote the values we believe in without the deaths of so many innocents. He revealed that he carries with him the photo of a Muslim Lebanese boy who had been killed in Israel's recent war with Hezbollah. The boy had been photographed holding a sign welcoming the pope when he visited Lebanon last year. As a pastor I cannot be in favor of war, he told reporters aboard his plane. I would like to encourage everyone to find responses that come from a culture of peace and not hatred and division. Trump likes a naval blockade. But Iran presents big differences from Venezuela and Cuba President Donald Trump has turned to naval blockades to pressure the governments of Venezuela, Cuba and now Iran to meet his demands, but his preferred tactic is confronting a very different reality in the Middle East than in the Caribbean. Unlike Cuba or Venezuela, Iran choked off a crucial trade route for energy shipments, meaning the longer the standoff persists, the more the global economy will suffer. Tehran also poses a greater military threat than those two adversaries in America's own hemisphere and requires a sustained military presence far from U.S. shores. Iran's leverage over the Strait of Hormuz gives it power during a shaky ceasefire because the widening economic risks, especially higher U.S. gas prices in an election year, could force the Republican president to end the blockade on Iran's ports and coastline, experts say. Palestinians mourn another death in historically violent year in the occupied West Bank 25-year-old father of twins was shot by Israeli settlers in a village home to a large Palestinian-American population, sparking an outpouring of grief at his funeral Thursday. The Ramallah-based Palestinian Ministry of Health said Awda Awawdeh died from gunshot wounds after what witnesses described as a clash with settlers attempting to steal Palestinian livestock. Young men from our town gathered and came to confront them. The settlers fired at them, and the young man Awda Awawdeh was hit and injured on his side with a live bullet, said Ziad Manasrah, a local paramedic who helped transport Awawdeh from the town of Deir Dibwan to the hospital. Awawdeh is the 11th Palestinian killed by Israeli settlers in 2026, surpassing the nine killed in 2025. The daily killings in the West Bank are not incidental, but an integral part of a systematic process of ethnic cleansing. The Israeli system does not halt this violence deliberately because it serves its political goal: the suppression and dispossession of Palestinians from their land, said Yuli Novak, the executive director the Israeli rights group B'Tselem. Lebanese cabinet discusses potential move to join the ICC Lebanon's Deputy Prime Minister Tarek Mitri said ministers on Thursday discussed joining the International Criminal Court, a permanent tribunal that prosecutes individuals for war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide, for a specific period. The move would mark a significant shift for Lebanon, which is not a member of the court. Mitri said the move would enable the ICC to look into war crimes and humanitarian crimes which were committed on Lebanese territory. Lebanon has accused Israel of war crimes and and repeated breaches of international law during the latest war with Hezbollah. Iran's judiciary chief touts the country's show of force in the Strait of Hormuz Iran's judiciary chief, Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejehi, said on X that the country's armed forces were demonstrating strength in the Strait of Hormuz, citing what he described as a Revolutionary Guard mosquito fleet of speedboats and underwater drones, along with action against three ships in the waterway. He wrote that the IRGC's mosquito fleet, with speedboats and drones, lies in wait from the sea caves of Faror Island for the American aggressor warships, ready to saturate their air defenses and bring utter ruin upon the invaders. He called the display a source of pride and warned against U.S. naval presence. Israeli defense minister says Israel is ready to resume war with Iran Israel's defense minister, Israel Katz, said Thursday that Israel is prepared to resume war with Iran and is awaiting a green light from the United States, according to a statement following a security assessment. We are waiting for a green light from the United States, Katz said, adding that the military is ready for both defensive and offensive operations and targets are marked. Israelis express mixed views on Lebanon talks Residents in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv expressed mixed views on talks between Israel and Lebanon, with opinions ranging from calls for diplomacy to deep skepticism over Hezbollah's role. I always believe that you can talk, but you have to be prepared for war, said Ben Kurtzer, a Jerusalem resident. Others were more skeptical. Who is there to talk to? said Yardena Sharon. Some drew a distinction between Lebanon and Hezbollah. We do not want to be hostile with the state of Lebanon; we have no hostility towards them. I think there are, undoubtedly, wonderful people there, people who seek peace, just as we seek peace, said Matan Moalem, a Jerusalem resident. Hezbollah needs to be eliminated once and for all, to take control of the entire area that constantly threatens Israel, firing in our direction and always seeking to eliminate and kill us. In Tel Aviv, others emphasized diplomacy. Force without brains is worth nothing. In the end, only agreements bring peace and security, only agreements, said Daron Sabani. Images of new crucifix in southern Lebanon convey message of hope, dialogue and peace,' Meloni says Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni on Thursday thanked Italian peacekeepers serving in southern Lebanon for donating a new crucifix to the village of Debel after the original was destroyed by an Israeli soldier in an incident that drew international criticism. Meloni said images showing the crucifix being delivered and placed in the same spot as the one destroyed days earlier conveyed a message of hope, dialogue and peace. Israel's military said Tuesday it had replaced the crucifix and shared a photograph of the new one on social media. The replacement appeared smaller and more ornate than the original, which had been smashed by a soldier. The Israeli military said two soldiers involved in the episode will be held for a month in military detention. Ukraine's president discloses details of security agreements with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and UAE Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a CNN interview that his country signed a Drone Deal with the three Gulf countries, aiming to help them manufacture much cheaper drones and drone interceptors. Zelenskyy toured the Gulf countries late May, but there was no immediate word on the details of the signed agreements between Ukraine and the Gulf countries. A (low-cost, Iranian-designed Shahed drone) can cost from 80 to 130 thousand dollars. It will be destroyed not with a missile worth 3-4 million dollars, but with an interceptor costing 10 thousand dollars, Zelenskyy wrote, adding that he wants to help Gulf countries defend themselves. Speaking earlier this month, Zelenskyy said that in exchange for its drone expertise, Ukraine would get air defense weapons to protect its energy infrastructure, along with oil, diesel and, in some cases, financial help. Ukrainian officials haven't published details of the final deal. Stable ceasefire and assurances' needed for transit in the Strait of Hormuz The chief safety and security officer in BIMCO, the world's largest international shipping association, said Thursday that shipping companies need assurances from both Iran and the U.S. to transit the vital waterway. Mine clearance efforts are also needed as they pose a particular concern, Jakob Larsen said in a statement, adding that the process of mine clearance could take up to several weeks. Hours earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump said in a social media post that the military is intensifying its mine clearing efforts in the strait. The Strait of Hormuz remains fully closed Thursday as the U.S.-Iran standoff continues to intensify in the Persian Gulf.

Greek proverb of the day reveals a quiet but powerful truth. Life does not reward motion. It rewards direction. Old classic wisdom reminds us that effort without a goal dissolves into noise. A clear goal shapes thought. It sharpens intention. It gives meaning to every step taken. The Greek proverb of the day teaches that success begins in the mind before it appears in reality. When the aim is clear, actions align naturally. When the aim is absent, even hard work feels empty. Define your goal first. The path will reveal itself with purpose, discipline, and inner clarity.

Indian Premier League: South Africas left-arm fast bowling all-rounder Marco Jansen has been emerging as a genuine all-rounder for Punjab Kings (PBKS). In last years Indian Premier League (IPL), Jansen finished as PBKS joint second-highest wicket-taker with 16 scalps from 14 matches. While known for his Power-play spells, Jansens best returns came in the middle overs, where he claimed six wickets at 8.5 runs per over. After having a good time for the Proteas in the T20 World Cup, Jansen has been a vital cog in PBKS bowling wheel, as the side remains the only unbeaten team in IPL 2026. In a virtual roundtable chat facilitated by the franchise ahead of their clash against Delhi Capitals, Jansen reflected on skipper Shreyas Iyer, being a first-change bowler, how hard lengths have given him good returns in the shortest format, and more. Excerpts: Q. What kind of leader is Shreyas Iyer, and the reason behind him being an inspirational skipper A. Shreyas, as a captain, is definitely up there, if not on top. He's a pleasure to work with. He knows what he's doing. He knows what he wants from the players. He motivates and drives us to play our best. It gives us the space to do what we do well, if that makes sense. It's not a case of it's his way or the highway type of thing, which I think is a very nice feeling as a bowler and a player. He knows what he wants. He knows what he wants to achieve. He's very goal-driven. He's very headstrong. It's very easy to see when we are in meetings and stuff like that, and in training. He's very driven. I think from a team's point of view, it's nice to have a captain like that. So it's like you sort of just follow his lead. He's going to lead the team in a way where it's going to put the team in a position to not just win games, but also, if you're lucky enough, win a trophy as well. It's nice to play under his captaincy. He's up for discussions. He's always welcoming. It's never a case of it feels like a dictatorship. He makes everyone feel valued and welcomed. As a player, it's very, very nice to have a captain like that where you feel you can go to the captain, you can express, or you can speak about certain things about the game. Not just that, but he'll give his advice, or he'll give his two cents about it as well, and then he'll formulate a plan with you to help you get better if need be and to take the team forward and stuff like that, which is nice. Q. With Xavier Bartlett sharing the new ball with Arshdeep Singh, how has it been for you to adapt, especially with batters looking to hit hard at the bowlers? A. I'm used to taking the first or second over, but I also know that I do have the skills to adapt to whatever situation or to adapt to any situation or any particular time in the match to come in and do a job for the team. Obviously, as a swing bowler or someone who's used to bowling with the new ball, you do have a weapon in your hand as well. So coming in in the third, fourth, or sometimes fifth over is definitely a different approach that I had to take. But it's not a case of me thinking that I can't do a job or I can't take wickets or thinking, okay, cool, there is my weapon taken away. It's nothing like that. Its actually the opposite because Arshdeep and Xavier swing the ball consistently and more than I do. I understand that. At the same time, I also realise and understand that I have different attributes, different skills that I bring to the bowling unit and to the table. It's just from a bowling unit; everyone knows that wherever we bowl, there's a plan, there's a reason. It's not a case of, in my case, that they don't believe I can't do a good job bowling the first or second over with the new ball. It's a case of how are we going to bowl well with the ball as a unit, if that makes sense. Yuzi (Chahal) is bowling in the middle, Shashank is not bowling in the first few games, and then all of a sudden comes in and takes two in his first over in this season. So I think it's a good place to be. It's a nice place to be at as a bowler and a player and as a bowling unit because we know it doesn't matter where we bowl, or where Shreyas decides to bowl a certain bowler or a particular bowler. We know there's a reason behind it, and we know that whoever has the ball in his hands at that particular time, whether it's in a power play in the middle or at the death, we fully believe and we trust that that guy will do the best job for the team. Q. You have been sticking to hard lengths more often than not. Do you think that has been one of the reasons for you doing well in both Test cricket and T20 as well? A. It doesn't surprise me because Josh Hazlewood does the exact same. People still ask the same. I still ask the same question. How does he just hit a length and he picks up wickets, he doesn't go for a lot of runs, and he's consistent as well. He also has variations. I also have one or two variations. But I think it comes down to both of us. We're tall bowlers. We bowl different lengths. There's something different we give to a bowling unit that makes sense. I think the problem, especially when I was younger, was that I came in where I was trying to bowl similar to what other guys were bowling, if it makes sense. Not realising that what I bring to the table is different or is completely different from what other bowlers are bringing to the table. I have to find my own way to be effective and to put in consistent performances for the team. I think the last year or so, I've felt comfortable in my own skin. I've felt comfortable in doing what I feel is best to help me stay consistent and perform consistently. Obviously, you're going to get your off days, but the goal is just to try and stay consistent and not have those good performances few and far between so try and stack them as close as possible. Q. Do you have a different approach to your bowling plan for the afternoon matches compared to the evening ones, keeping in mind the pitch and conditions? A. No, it's the same approach. I think just what I bowl or the options change based on the conditions. So if a wicket is good, like the previous game, the wicket was really, really good for batting, we felt. That approach, sort of on the go, you sort of try and formulate a way of going about it. There's no set way of bowling, or there are no preconceived ideas about how I want to go about it. I obviously have the basics that I stick to and that I always do, and I always follow the processes that I follow. But it's always a case of trying to sum up the conditions as quickly as possible and then finding a way to be as effective as I can be on that particular day. Q. What has been the discussion within the bowling group, and how have you been able to support each other on the field in terms of defensive tactics in death overs? A. It's not a case of going defensively. I think it's a case of we're trying, we're always assessing and thinking of ways to stop the opposition from scoring and obviously make it as hard as possible for them to score runs, especially at the death and in the power play as well. But we just approach it differently because in the power play, you only have two fielders out, and at the death and in the middle overs, you have five fielders out. So it makes it a bit easier for us as a bowling unit to sort of bowl towards a certain plan if it makes sense to bowl. There are more fielders who can help you get wickets. A. It's not a case of going defensively. I think it's a case of we're trying, we're always assessing and thinking of ways to stop the opposition from scoring and obviously make it as hard as possible for them to score runs, especially at the death and in the power play as well. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Because batters are so good, they hit sixes over the point these days. I don't know how they do it, but they do it. So it's quite difficult to set a particular plan for all the batters. It's just about trying to be smart and just basically keeping them on their toes. You always have to make the batter think twice or guess what the next ball is going to be. Article Source: IANS

Two visually impaired DPS Srinagar students shine in CBSE Class 10 exam
Two visually impaired students of Delhi Public School (DPS) Srinagar have secured outstanding marks in the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) class 10 examinations, the results of which were declared last week. CBSE conducted the phase-I of class 10th exam from February 17 to March 11, 2026 while the phase-II will be tentatively conducted from May 15 to June 1, 2026. Zainab Bilal and Farees Rafiq, both the students of DPS scored an impressive 96 and 93 percent marks respectively, earning praise as the pride of their school and setting a new benchmark for students with special needs in the Valley. What makes their achievement even more significant is that both students wrote their examinations independently using computers, without the assistance of a scribe, a first-of-its-kind feat in J&K. Excited with their performance, both the students shared their experience during a candid conversation on Radio DPS schools in-house platform. The duo described their results as a mix of relief, joy and disbelief. We were actually nervous because we wrote our exams through computers. There were fears along with hope, Farees said during the interaction. Zainab highlighted the broader significance of their accomplishment and called it a big milestone in inclusive education that could inspire systemic change. We are the first visually impaired students in J&K to write exams independently without a scribe. This will impact inclusive education in general, she said. Farees further pointed out the sense of independence that comes with using technology over traditional methods. While a scribe is reliable, writing through a computer gives you full control. You are responsible for every word you write, he said. Both students credited their success to the strong support system at DPS Srinagar, particularly the Learning Resource Centre (LRC), teachers and school administration. They also acknowledged the unwavering encouragement from their families as well. The schools facilities and environment made this possible. Without DPS, achieving such a milestone would have been nearly impossible, Farees said. Farees and Zainab thanked the school staff and mentors who guided them. The duo expressed hope that their achievement would encourage others in the differently-abled community to strive for self-reliance and independence. They also called upon educational institutions to create inclusive spaces that support students with special needs. If DPS Srinagar can do it, every school in the Valley and the country can follow. All the schools should adopt similar practices, they said. Both the students concluded their conversation with a message of perseverance and emphasized consistency, hard work and belief in ones goals. Strive for your aims with dedication, and success will follow, they said.
West Asia conflict casts shadow on Kashmirs Handicrafts
On a quiet morning in Kanihama, the village that has for centuries been synonymous with Kashmirs most prized textile tradition, master weaver Mohammad Yusuf Bhat sits at his loom, his fingers moving with the kind of unhurried precision that only decades of practice can produce. The pashmina shawl taking shape beneath his hands each thread drawn from the fine underbelly fleece of Changthangi goats grazing on the high plateaus of Ladakh, each motif a testament to a craft heritage older than most nations would ordinarily have found its way to a buyer in Dubai or Riyadh within weeks of completion. Today, it joins a growing pile of finished pieces stacked carefully in a back room, exquisite and unsold, waiting for a market that has gone quiet. We have put months into each of these shawls. The skill, the time, the raw material everything has gone into them, said Bhat, running his hand over the soft folds of a finished piece. But there is no movement. The orders have stopped, and the freight has become so expensive that even when someone wants to buy, we cannot send it at a price that makes sense. How long can we sustain this? We have families to feed. Bhats predicament is the story of an entire industry in distress. From the pashmina weaving clusters of Kanihama and Sheeri to the papier-mch workshops of downtown Srinagar, from the sozni embroidery artisans of Budgam to the walnut wood carvers of Habbakadal, Kashmirs celebrated handicrafts sector is confronting a crisis with two sharp edges a dramatic collapse in demand driven by the ongoing West Asia conflict, and a crippling surge in export freight costs that has pushed an already struggling industry to the brink. To understand the depth of the crisis, one must first understand the thread quite literally that connects Kashmirs artisans to their most vital markets. The Gulf countries the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, and their neighbours have for generations been the most dependable destination for Kashmirs handmade exports. Affluent Gulf buyers have a profound cultural appreciation for luxury handcrafted goods, and Kashmiri pashmina in particular has long enjoyed an almost iconic status in those markets, fetching premium prices and building enduring commercial relationships across decades. That thread has now been stretched to near breaking point. As conflict across West Asia has disrupted trade routes, unsettled buyers, and created a climate of economic anxiety across the region, demand for Kashmiri handicrafts has fallen sharply. Exporters are holding stocks they cannot move. Artisans are waiting for payments that are not coming. And the financial year that is drawing to a close looks set to record a painful step backwards for a sector that had worked hard to reach Rs 733 crore in exports in the previous financial year. Industry insiders now fear the current years figures will fall significantly short of that benchmark, with finished goods accumulating in warehouses and workshops across the Valley and no clear timeline for when normalcy might return. President of the Kashmir Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI), Javid Ahmad Tenga, who has been leading efforts to bring the trade communitys concerns before the authorities, spoke to Greater Kashmir in unusually direct terms about the gravity of the situation and what he believes must happen next. The situation is very serious. There has been a drastic decline in demand directly because of the West Asia conflict. The Gulf countries are the major markets for Kashmirs handicrafts exports. When there is instability in that region, we are the ones who bear the consequences here in Kashmir, Tenga said. He painted a picture of an industry caught in a vice. On one side, demand has collapsed. On the other hand, the logistics of getting goods out of Kashmir have become prohibitively expensive. Export freight charges, he said, have surged from Rs 200 per kg to Rs 1,000 per kg a 500 percent increase that has rendered countless consignments economically unviable to dispatch even when willing buyers can be found. Goods are ready. The pashmina has been woven, the embroidery has been done, the craftsmen have fulfilled their part with tremendous skill and effort. But the goods are sitting here because the freight cost makes it impossible to send them at a price that remains competitive in the international market. This is a double crisis no demand on one side and no affordable route to the demand that does exist on the other, he said. Tenga also disclosed that the KCCI has been actively engaging with the central government on the matter and has already placed its case formally before the concerned authorities. Last month, we held a meeting with DGFT Lav Agrawal, where we submitted a detailed memorandum outlining the problems facing our exporters. We have put the facts on the table. Now we need the government to act, he said. His appeal to New Delhi was unequivocal. The Government of India must come forward to bail out the exporters of Kashmir. These are people who contribute foreign exchange to the country real dollars and dirhams that come into India because of the skill of our weavers and craftspeople. In these tough times, when circumstances entirely beyond their control have disrupted their markets, the government has a responsibility to stand by them. We are not asking for charity. We are asking for support for an industry that earns for the nation, Tenga said. On the ground, the financial bleeding is already acute. Farooq Ahmad, a Srinagar-based exporter with over two decades in the pashmina and handicrafts trade and a client list that spans the UAE and Saudi Arabia, described how the steady pipeline of orders that once defined his business calendar has reduced to an uncertain trickle. My buyers in Dubai and Riyadh are good people. They have been with me for years, some of them for longer than my children have been alive. But they are also businessmen. When their own environment is uncertain, when there is conflict around them, and people are worried, they do not commit to large orders for luxury goods. They wait and watch. And while they wait, I am here with a room full of finished pashmina shawls and zero cash flow, Wani said. He estimated that his pending stock had reached levels he had not seen in years, and said that several fellow exporters were in an even more precarious position having made advance payments to weavers and procured raw material on credit in anticipation of orders that never materialised. The weavers come and ask when they will be paid the balance. The raw material suppliers ask when their dues will be cleared. What do I tell them that a war thousands of kilometres away has frozen my business? They understand the situation, but understanding does not pay anyones bills, he said. If exporters are under severe strain, it is the artisans at the base of the supply chain who are absorbing the sharpest blow. Kashmirs pashmina weavers the vast majority of them women working out of home-based setups across rural districts work largely on a piece-rate system, meaning income arrives only when finished goods are accepted and cleared. With exports stalled, that income has been indefinitely deferred. Back in Kanihama, Naseema Akhter has been weaving pashmina since she was a teenager, learning the craft at her mothers knee the way generations of women in her village have done before her. She has not received a full payment for her work in months. I finish a shawl, I hand it over, and then I wait. The person who takes it says the market is bad, that things are stuck abroad. I am not an educated woman but I know that there is trouble far away and that it has reached our doorstep. The trouble is now on my dining table, in my childrens school fees, in the ration I buy at the end of the month, she said quietly. In the sozni embroidery workshops of the city, where craftsmen spend weeks needle-working delicate floral patterns onto fine pashmina with a precision that has earned Kashmirs embroidery an international reputation, the silence of idled work tells its own story. Ghulam Hassan, who runs a small embroidery unit near the Jama Masjid and employs half a dozen young craftsmen, said the Gulf orders that once kept his unit running through the year had all but disappeared. This craft takes years to learn and a lifetime to perfect. My boys are among the best at what they do. But excellence does not pay the rent when there are no orders. I am managing, just about but I say honestly that I do not know for how much longer, he said. While the demand collapse is driven by geopolitical forces beyond the industrys control, the explosion in freight costs is a wound that trade leaders believe the government has both the ability and the obligation to address directly. The jump from Rs 200 per kg to Rs 1,000 per kg in export freight charges has erected what exporters are calling a freight wall between Kashmirs artisans and their international buyers. For the finest pashmina shawls where a single piece might be valued at tens of thousands of rupees the logistics surcharge, while painful, can to some extent be absorbed. For the vast mid-range of Kashmirs handicrafts output, the arithmetic simply does not work anymore. The urgency of intervention is sharpened by what hangs in the balance. Kashmirs handicrafts industry is not simply an economic sector it is the living expression of a centuries-old artistic civilisation, the primary livelihood of an estimated three lakh artisan families across the Valley, and one of the most globally recognised emblems of the regions identity. The fine pashmina shawl, in particular, is not merely a product it is a cultural artefact that carries within its threads the accumulated knowledge and artistry of generations.
From margins to mainstream: how SMILE is changing lives across India
On a hot afternoon at a busy traffic signal in Delhi, cars slow down as the light turns red. A young boy taps on windows, an elderly man stretches out his hand, and a transgender person walks between vehicles asking for help. For most people waiting in their cars, this scene has become routine, seen, but rarely understood. But for the government, this street scene represents something deeper: a gap in opportunity, support, and dignity. It is this gap that the SMILE scheme is trying to bridge. Launched in February 2022 by the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, SMILE (Support for Marginalised Individuals for Livelihood and Enterprise) is Indias first integrated programme designed to support two of the most vulnerable groups: transgender persons and beggars. The idea is simple but powerful: move people from the margins of society into the mainstream, reports PIB. The scale of the effort is significant. For the period 2021 to 2026, officials say that the government has allocated 390 crore for the scheme. As of March 2026, more than 31,000 individuals engaged in begging have been identified, and nearly 10,000 have already been rehabilitated. This shows that the scheme is not just on paper, but is working on the ground. At its core, SMILE works like a bridge. India already has many welfare schemes for health, education, housing, and jobs. But many marginalised people cannot access them due to lack of documents, awareness, or social support. SMILE connects them to these services while also addressing their immediate needs like shelter, counselling, and skill training. One of the key focus areas is support for the transgender community. Over the years, India has taken steps to recognise their rights, especially after the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2019. Building on this, SMILE offers practical support, from scholarships for students to skill training and healthcare. A major step is the health cover provided under Ayushman Bharat TG Plus, which offers up to 5 lakh per year. This includes gender-affirming procedures, hormone therapy, and other medical care at approved hospitals. For many transgender persons, who often face discrimination in healthcare, this is a crucial support. Shelter is another important aspect. At present, 21 Garima Greh homes are running across 17 states, offering safe and respectful living spaces for transgender persons who may have been rejected by their families. These homes provide food, healthcare, and opportunities to learn skills and find work. At the same time, the scheme is also working to reduce begging through rehabilitation rather than punishment. The PIB press release suggests that in 181 cities, local teams are identifying people engaged in begging and offering them a chance to rebuild their lives. The process starts on the streets, with surveys and counselling. People are then moved to shelter homes where they receive food, safety, and care. From there, they are trained in various skills, such as tailoring, cooking, carpentry, and even driving e-rickshaws. They are also linked to banks and self-help groups, so they can start earning independently. Importantly, the support does not stop after training. The scheme follows up to ensure that individuals do not return to the streets. For those facing deeper challenges like addiction or old age, connections are made with de-addiction centres and old-age homes. Behind the numbers are real stories of change. People are moving from a life of uncertainty to one of stability and respect. What was once a daily struggle at traffic signals or street corners can become a pathway to regular income and social acceptance. SMILE reflects a broader shift in thinking. Instead of treating problems separately, it looks at the full picture, identity, health, education, and livelihood, and tries to address them together. The goal is not just to provide temporary relief, but to create long-term change. As the scheme expands, its impact is becoming more visible. The familiar street scenes may not disappear overnight, but slowly, they are beginning to change. For many, SMILE is not just a government programme; it is a second chance at life, with dignity and hope.

Cash App now supports accounts for kids 6-12
Cash App, the banking and payments app run by Block, has added support for parent-managed kids accounts . The new accounts include key benefits from the service's normal account, with an eye towards teaching financial literacy to younger users ages 6 to 12. Cash App first allowed teenage users on its platform in 2021. As part of the expanded Cash App Families experience, eligible legal guardians and parents can create managed accounts that offer a dedicated place on the platform to send allowances, set aside savings, and track spending for their child, kickstarting their path to financial independence, Cash App says. Adults managing these accounts will be able to set up recurring transfers, see how their child is spending and do things like lock their child's account to prevent transactions. Kids will get a custom debit card and the ability to receive payments from up to five trusted accounts, though notably they won't be able to access Cash App itself. Today, we're launching Cash App accounts for kids age 6-12. Parents manage the accounts. Kids get to learn about safety, start saving for goals, and design and use their own debit card. Next generation banking never looked so good. Proud of the team for this one. pic.twitter.com/jIAcbvsfB9 Kristen Anderson (@FintechKristen) April 21, 2026 Cash App says managed accounts are designed for kids 6 through 12. Once those kids turn 13, Cash App says parents will be able to choose to convert their account to a sponsored account to unlock more features, like the ability to send and receive payments, invest in stocks or trade crypto. Those sponsored accounts are technically still monitored and controlled by a parent or legal guardian, but they do give 13-year-olds more control over how they use their money. A parent-managed account for kids is not a new idea in the fintech space, though Cash App is trying to reach a younger audience than some of its competitors. Venmo rolled out access to its payment platform to teens between the ages of 13 to 17 in 2023. Separately, both Apple and Google also offer their own kids accounts in Google Wallet and Apple Cash Family .
