IIM Jammu will earn global recognition and respect in next decade: Lieutenant Governor
Jammu, Aug 22: The Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha joined the Board of Governors, faculty, students, alumni and dignitaries today to celebrate 10 years of IIM Jammu. Reflecting on IIM Jammu's remarkable journey, the Lieutenant Governor said that from a modest beginning to its current standing as one of India's fastest-emerging business schools, the Institute has scripted a new history while setting out an ambitious roadmap for the decade ahead. Recalling that IIM Jammu started a decade ago with just 56 students on a temporary campus on Canal Road, the Lieutenant Governor noted that the institute has since grown into a nationally recognised and internationally engaged centre for management education. He observed that IIM Jammu is now the fifth IIM in the country to hold both AMBA and EFMD accreditation, and it has built academic partnerships with institutions across France, Morocco, South Korea, Greece, the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia, Poland, Sweden, Taiwan and, most recently, Brazil. He said the research output at the institute has also expanded sharply, growing from just two published papers in 2017 to close to 350 this year. The Lieutenant Governor commended the hard work and a decade of consistent effort under the leadership of Director Professor B.S. Sahay, the faculty and the Board of Governors, describing the institute's trajectory as a model that other business schools are beginning to look to for inspiration. I have seen details of one achievement after another, along with several distinctive initiatives that have become an inspiring example, a role model, for other business schools. I am certain that, in the future, people will remember these achievements as a standard and an ideal, and will seek to emulate them, he said. The Lieutenant Governor invoked the founding stories of three of the world's most respected business schools - Harvard, built on the discipline of case-based learning; Stanford, built on connecting the classroom to real-world enterprise through Silicon Valley; and Wharton, built on mastering the complexities of global capital markets. Each, the Lieutenant Governor observed, succeeded not by trying to be everything, but by committing to one distinctive idea and pursuing it with patience over generations. The Lieutenant Governor said that IIM Jammu now stands at a similar starting point and the decisions it makes over the coming years will shape its identity for decades to come. He emphasised four priorities for the IIM Jammu. A distinctive academic identity should be the priority. Rather than relying primarily on case studies drawn from Western business schools, IIM Jammu should build its own tradition of case writing rooted in the realities of Indian enterprise including the logistical and entrepreneurial challenges unique to Jammu Kashmir and Ladakh. Experiential learning. We need to move education beyond the lecture hall. Every student to undertake a real, tangible project before graduation, whether through the institute's Entrepreneurship Centre, a policy challenge, or direct engagement with local businesses supported by its Centre for Small Business Development. Research with a sharp edge should be the focus. Building on the institute's rapid growth in research output, a deeper focus should be on questions specific to border economies, sustainable development and frontier entrepreneurship, areas where IIM Jammu is uniquely positioned to lead. Placements should be seen as a nation-building exercise. I hope within a decade, IIM Jammu graduates would be recognised for reshaping major companies and founding leading enterprises. Each graduate should be seen as a contributor to India's goal of becoming a developed nation by 2047, the Lieutenant Governor said. He said the real examinations take place in corporate boardrooms, markets and in life itself, where the data is often incomplete, stakeholders have differing opinions and there is no teacher to provide readymade answers. IIM Jammu's growth must now be converted into new discoveries. IIM Jammu must ask itself what can be done in the fields of administration, sustainable development and entrepreneurship in the economies of border areas. I believe that great institutions are great because, when the nation faces difficult questions, it looks to them for answers. If IIM Jammu continues to move forward with complete confidence over the next ten years, I am certain that its name will be spoken across the world with immense pride and respect, the Lieutenant Governor said. On the occasion, the Lieutenant Governor released seven coffee-table books of IIM Jammu. Padma Shri Dr. Milind Pralhad Kamble, Chairman, Board of Governors (BoG), IIM Jammu; Sriram Dandekar, Former Chairman, BoG, IIM; Anand Kripalu, Member, BoG, IIM Jammu; Prof. B.S. Sahay, Director IIM Jammu; S. Shivakumar, Operating Partner, Advent International; Vice Chancellors of various Universities; Head of Departments, Faculty and students of IIM Jammu; prominent citizens and senior officials of Police and Civil Administration were present.

Did Arjun Rampal get special treatment? Inside the legal loophole that allowed his instant marriage
Highlights Arjun Rampal and Gabriella Demetriades registered their marriage in Mapusa, Goa Goa's civil registration process normally includes a 15-day waiting period The couple obtained special permission to waive the waiting period Arjun Rampal and Gabriella Demetriades may have kept their wedding private, but the legal process behind their Goa marriage has revealed a little-known provision in the state's marriage registration system. The Dhurandhar actor and his longtime partner registered their marriage at the Sub-Registrar's office in Mapusa, North Goa, on Friday. According to PTI, the couple obtained special permission from the Assistant Public Prosecutor to waive the 15-day period normally required between the first and second stages of marriage registration. What is the Goa marriage rule? Unlike a straightforward same-day registration, Goa's civil marriage procedure is divided into two stages. The state's Registration Department says a statutory waiting period of 15 days, including two Sundays, normally applies between the declaration of marriage and its final registration. The period allows the marriage notice to be publicly displayed and gives anyone aware of a legal impediment an opportunity to raise an objection. However, the rule comes with an important exception. Goa's official marriage-registration guidance states that the waiting period can be waived in deserving cases with permission from the Assistant Public Prosecutor of the relevant jurisdiction. That provision appears to be the route used by Rampal and Demetriades. How Arjun Rampal skipped the 15-day wait According to PTI, the couple arrived at the Mapusa registrar's office at around 4pm on Friday and completed the necessary formalities in the presence of close friends. They had already secured special permission from the Assistant Public Prosecutor to condone the waiting period between their first and second signatures. This does not mean the couple bypassed Goa's marriage law. Rather, they used an exception expressly provided for within the state's registration framework. Goa's own registration website confirms that the waiting period can be waived after permission from the Assistant Public Prosecutor is submitted, allowing the couple to proceed with the final registration. Why Goa's rule matters The provision is particularly interesting because the waiting period is not simply an administrative delay. It forms part of Goa's system of public notice, giving potential objections to a proposed marriage an opportunity to be raised before the marriage is formally registered. In Rampal and Demetriades ' case, the special permission meant they did not have to wait the full statutory period before completing the registration. The marriage was registered under Goa's civil registration system, which applies irrespective of religion. The official Goa marriage portal describes registration as the process that gives a marriage juridical status and provides the legal certificate establishing it. The couple, who have been together for several years and share two sons, have now formally registered their relationship after years of being together. Their decision to complete the legal formalities quietly in Goa has also put the state's unusual marriage-registration provisions in the spotlight.

DPL 2026: Mayank Yadav Gives Invaluable Motivation To The Junior Players, Says Simarjeet Singh
Captain Simarjeet Singh: Captain Simarjeet Singh opened up about the team's refreshed mindset and lethal bowling partnership with Mayank Yadav after East Delhi Riders delivered a disciplined all-round performance to secure a comfortable seven-wicket victory over Outer Delhi Warriors in their Delhi Premier League (DPL) 2026 clash on Friday. We just tried to give our best as players and return with a strong mentality. Rather than treating every game with extreme pressure or worrying about whether we were in or out of the tournament, we focused on playing good cricket and showing the coaching staff, management, and fans what we are capable of, Simarjeet said after the match. When asked if East Delhi Riders were aiming to play party poopers and disrupt the playoff chances of other teams, Simarjeet dismissed the idea, choosing instead to focus on long-term development. We aren't thinking about other teams. We are focusing on our own game and learning for the future as cricketers. With domestic and state cricket coming up, we want to ensure we don't repeat the mistakes we made earlier. The goal now is to perform well individually and finish the tournament on a strong note as a team, he emphasised. Simarjeet also showered praise on pace sensation Mayank Yadav, highlighting the immense value he brings to the squad both on and off the field. In my view, Mayank is the fastest bowler in India. Its great to see how involved he is in Delhi cricket. He has fun, shares stories from his time with the Indian national team, and gives invaluable motivation to the junior players. Personally, I really enjoy bowling alongside him, Simarjeet noted. Elaborating on how the duo manages their bowling partnership during high-pressure match situations, the captain explained their ongoing tactical dialogue. We talk continuously during the match about who should push at a given time and what the best options are from either end. If I am bowling, we discuss what Mayanks role should be, and vice versa. We stay closely aligned with the match situation to keep the game in our control, he added. Elaborating on how the duo manages their bowling partnership during high-pressure match situations, the captain explained their ongoing tactical dialogue.

PNGRB approves 1,800 km LPG pipeline network worth Rs 7,000 crore
Oil sector regulator has authorised the development of nearly 1,800 km of new LPG pipelines at an estimated investment of Rs 7,000 crore, expanding the country's common-carrier LPG pipeline network by almost a quarter as it seeks to make fuel supplies more resilient and reduce dependence on road transport. The Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB) has approved three strategically important LPG pipeline projects across Telangana, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Karnataka and Goa, the regulator said in a statement. The projects, to be developed by state-run GAIL (India) Ltd, will take the PNGRB-authorised common-carrier LPG pipeline network from about 7,700 km to nearly 9,500 km, an increase of around 23.5 per cent. The expansion comes as India relies heavily on imported LPG, with bulk supplies arriving at coastal import terminals and then being transported to consumption centres across the country. A larger pipeline network is expected to improve the efficiency

Quote of the day by Vince Lombardi offers a powerful reminder that success is often decided by what happens after talent and knowledge reach their limits. Strength can provide the ability to act, and knowledge can provide direction, but willpower helps people remain engaged with their goals when the initial excitement disappears. It encourages discipline, resilience, courage, and adaptability. No one can control every circumstance, and determination alone cannot guarantee a particular outcome. But a strong will can dramatically influence how a person responds to setbacks and opportunities. Success is not always about being the strongest or knowing the most; sometimes it is about being willing to take one more constructive step when giving up would be easier. That willingness, repeated consistently, can turn potential into achievement and difficult ambitions into attainable realities.
VVV is Not Border Tourism: India Needs Settlers, Not Sighters
The Prime ministers recent exhortation during his address to youth of the country on the eve of Developed India young leaders dialogue with his seminal message that the sole objective of VVV( Viksit vibrant village) programme was to lead the youth of the nation towards border villages and live with local communities is well intentioned. But then here ends all these exhortations when converted to actuals. The honourable PMs call for the youth to delink themselves from the virtual world, step into the ground and connect themselves with the locals of the border areas is all a feel good factor that is bound to rub into all of us sooner or later. Interacting with the participants, many of whom belong to Gen Z, of the VVP programme -2026 that covered 74 vibrant villages across Ladakh, HP and Uttarakhand , PM Modi said in the countrys border villages , the aspiration for development and the spirit of patriotism are equally cherished. At times, it feels that for these people the country matters more than themselves. The PM further said that during DIYLD (Developed India young leaders dialogue), he had presented an idea before the youth. The idea was that why not have the youth, instead of using virtual medium to step onto ground to know India, connect with India, try to live India and understand India. All very lofty ideas indeed. Yet an important question deserves attention: Is merely encouraging young people to visit border villages enough? Should public policy stop at promoting tourism , or should it go a step further by encouraging Indias youth to live, work, innovate and build livelihoods in these villages? At first glance, the appeal appears inspiring and patriotic. However when viewed through the prism of strategic realities, demographic trends and national security, the appeal seems more symbolic than substantive. It reflects an idealistic vision that is disconnected from the hard realities confronting Indias border villages. The challenge facing Indias frontiers is not that the rest of the country has failed to admire them. Rather the people who live there are slowly leaving these border villages for greener pastures deeper in the hinterland of India. A border village doesnt become vibrant because some college students (Gen Z) spend a weekend taking photographs, interacting with the locals and posting patriotic messages on the social media, all on behest of PM Modis exhortations. Further giving an example, the PM said that several years ago the creation of MY Bharat platform provided millions of youth from across the country to connect with such far flung areas of India. His abiding opinion beingto dovetail this VVV programme within the My Bharat platform as also to treat these border villages as the First Indian village rather than as Last Indian village as had been the norm few years back. Indeed promoting tourism without addressing structured deficiencies risks confusing visibility with vitality. Increased footfalls of youth of India on PMs exhortation to border villages may generate seasonal income for a handful of households, but it does not create stable economic ecosystems required to retain an entire generation. Tourism by nature is seasonal, population stability is permanent. As if this was not enough, already many border villages of Ladakh, HP and Uttrakhand have earned the dubious moniker of Ghost villages or Bhutia Gaon for the simple reason that they have been abandoned by the dozens by their residents for lack of opportunities, better jobs, good medical infra , virtual absence of industry infrastructure and so on. This brings me to my most important question for the readers of Rising Kashmir paper in this write up of mine. Why start rolling out VVV/VVP programme when for decades India has/had the well-established BADP (Border area development programme ) in place? Is it not duplication of effort for the same stated objectives by the government of the day? A little research and the distinction springs out clearly why VVV/VVP has been ruling the roost in the recent past vis-a vis the BADP. The VVV/VVP was kick started alongside the BADP because latter suffered from spread-out funding and generalized execution, whereas the VVV/VVP provides targeted, intensive and strategically focused development to stop out-migration in vital frontier hamlets. BADP faced implementation slowdowns , delayed UCs ( utilization certificate) and so on. BADP relied on broad, state level and district level allocation of funds across a 0 to 10 kms border radius, while VVP uses a granular, village level cluster approach to achieve 100% saturation of basic amenities. At the same time VVP/ VVV specifically incentivizes residents to stay in remote depopulated frontier areas by building local economies , tourism and cultural connectivity, transforming last villages into strategic first villages. Unlike traditional schemes, VVV/VVP phases real-time, data driven response to economically anchor strategic frontier populations and build comprehensive economic drivers, moving past conventional infra checklists. This brings me to my next important questionWas/is BADP a failure that promised a lot but delivered far short of expectations of both the governments of the day as well as the border populace? Let the readers of this write up of mine decide. It will be worth noting for the readers of Rising Kashmir paper that the VVV/VVP has been an Indian response to Chinas model villages that have sprung up all along the LAC in the last few decades. As stated above, China over the past two/three decades has systematically integrated its civilian development with its national security objectives through what it calls Civil-military fusion (CMF). Under this strategy, infrastructure, economic development, technological advancement and civilian settlements are closely aligned with broader national cum strategic goals. It is no secret that along the Tibetan frontier and other sensitive border regions , China has invested heavily in model villages ,all weather roads, high speed communications ,healthcare facilities, renewable energy ,schools, and economic incentives designed to encourage civilian habitation. Many of these settlements are dual-purpose in character. While they function as ordinary villages, they simultaneously strengthen logistical support, surveillance capability and territorial assertion. Chinas approach is not driven by symbolism. It is driven by strategic permanence. Its border villages are intended to be lived in not merely visited. Indias bane since independence towards such issues has always been couched in symbolismas was evident during our so called ill-fated Forward policy enunciated by the trio of Nehru, Menon and BN Mullick the then IB Chief in the 50s &60s. Whether one agrees with Chinas political system is entirely beside the point. Democracies need not emulate authoritarian governance. However they cannot afford to ignore strategic lessons where national interests override petty local issues of governance. It is not that the past governments of India since independence brushed aside these issues with disdain, rather the first PM Nehru way back in 1951 had commissioned the then Dy Defence minister Maj Gen Himmat singhji to tackle this border area development. The committee, then known as North and North East border defence committee, put forward its valid recommendations that were followed through too in a later time frame. But as is the wont with a democratic country, the changing dispensations at Delhi since independence followed their own manifestoes. China has pursued demographic consolidation as an integral element of its border strategy through its CMF theory. India need not jump into the fray to emulate Chinas Geo-political model, but at the same time it would be grossly out of step for us to ignore all too important frontier population of our country that is slowly eroding at the altar of modernity and dazzling lights of our metros. Ultimately VVV will be carried on the shoulders of robust policy planners sitting at Raisina hills who should swap the air of symbolism with that of actually dirtying their hands with ground realities as existing from Ladakh to NE.

Premier League 2026-27 kicks off with zero British south Asian players in the top flight
Arsenal's Friday night win over newly-promoted Coventry City opened the richest football league on earth for another season. Millions watched. Billions will follow across the campaign. And for the first time in recent memory, not one of them will be watching a British south Asian player turn out in the Premier League itself. It isn't for lack of names. Four years ago, English football had what looked like a genuine breakthrough group: Hamza Choudhury at Leicester, Zidane Iqbal at Manchester United, Arjan Raikhy at Aston Villa, Kam Kandola at Wolves. Between them they carried the weight of a community that makes up roughly six per cent of grassroots football in England but, by the Professional Footballers' Association's own count, barely 0.45 per cent of the professional game. Today, none of them are playing top-flight football. Choudhury is still going he's Leicester's longest-serving player and captained the side through pre-season but Leicester have been relegated twice since 2023 and now play in League One. Iqbal is out on loan at Jong FC Utrecht, the reserve side of a Dutch second-tier club, though he did become the first player of British south Asian heritage to appear at a men's World Cup finals, turning out for Iraq at the tournament this summer. Kandola was released by Wolves and is now at National League club Hereford. Raikhy, once tipped as a Villa wonderkid, left Leicester after a string of loan spells and is playing for Boston United, also in the National League. It's a quiet, unremarked-upon reversal and it lands four years after the Premier League and Kick It Out launched the south Asian Action Plan specifically to fix this. Kick It Out chair Sanjay Bhandari, when the plan launched, called the numbers he biggest statistical anomaly in English sport, and said simply that the community wants to be seen more on the pitch. The PFA has been blunt about the scale of what's needed. Riz Rehman, who runs the union's Asian Inclusion Mentoring Scheme, has said the goal is to get professional representation up to around six per cent matching participation at grassroots level. Reaching that would mean not four players, but dozens. None of this is a story about talent running out. Iqbal captained his way to a World Cup finals shirt this summer. Choudhury has led a Premier League dressing room and now leads a League One one. The pipeline that produced them hasn't disappeared but for a season opener watched by a global audience, it's still not delivering a single face at the top level for the community that follows the game hardest. The next generation is out there, in academies and mentoring schemes up and down the country. Whether the numbers look different by the time the next World Cup comes around is the real question this season opens with.

Aiming To Get Back Into Australia Squad Across All Formats: Liam Scott
Big Bash League: Having experienced the feeling of being in international cricket during Australia's white-ball tour of Bangladesh earlier this year, rising all-rounder Liam Scott said he believes he is good enough to play for the national team across all three formats in future and is eager to get into the set-up again. Scott made his ODI debut in Dhaka, where he picked two wickets, after having a stellar 2025/26 domestic season, where he was named the Sheffield Shield player of the year with 496 runs and 23 wickets, while also amassing 310 runs in the Big Bash League for Adelaide Strikers. I think now I've had that taste. I just want to get back there and try and play as much cricket as I can for Australia. For me (there's) little elements of keep getting better against spin, opportunities to score... trying to score 360 and a bit of power-hitting stuff as well. Those sort of things I've tried to add to my game a little bit. Just being in different conditions, I think hopefully when I get the opportunity or if I get the opportunity to go back and play in those conditions, I feel as though I'm well-equipped and can adapt a bit quicker than probably what I did when I was over there, Scott was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au on Friday. Following a brief county cricket stint with Gloucestershire, Scott, who bats right-handed and bowls medium pace, said he has been making technical tweaks to refine his overall game. Bowling-wise (it's) just little technical stuff that has allowed me to maybe pick up a little bit of pace. In saying that, I feel like what I've got is good enough, so if I get that opportunity again, I'm looking forward to making the most of it, he added. With Australia entering a packed 12-month schedule comprising a minimum of 20 Tests alongside several white-ball series, Scott feels national selection opportunities can open up anytime for him. There's a few guys that are getting a tad older rather than getting younger, so there's probably going to be change and opportunities at some stage. There's a lot of Test cricket and in saying that, there's a lot of other cricket as well. One-day cricket (and) T20 cricket, so there's no doubt there'll be opportunities in some space. As a player and as cricketer, it's a pretty brutal game and you can't get too far ahead of yourself because as soon as you do that, something slips and you're back on the drawing board. Hopefully, I'm playing good at the right time, and I think timing is everything. If you're making runs and taking wickets when you need to, then you're obviously in the shop window, so hopefully that's me, he added. As a player and as cricketer, it's a pretty brutal game and you can't get too far ahead of yourself because as soon as you do that, something slips and you're back on the drawing board. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories But with such a strong squad, any player that comes in can really help win games committing for the state and I think that's no different this year. We've added some more players which I think can play a crucial role in going back-to-back to-back, so everyone here has one goal, and that's to win trophies for South Australia, he concluded.

Rising stars like Indias Atiqa Mir redefining future of motorsport: world body FIA
Paris, Aug 21: World motorsport body FIA has given a strong endorsement for Indian racer Atiqa Mir's special talent, saying rising stars like the 11-year-old are redefining the future of the sport. Atiqa, the first Indian to be backed by the F1 Academy, is currently giving the more experienced drivers a run for their money in the age 12-14 category across karting series in Europe. Her ultimate goal is to reach F1, where no female has raced since 1992. Rising stars such as Atiqa Mir are redefining the future of motor sport and her recent success shows how bright the future is for our sport, FIA, the world body for four-wheel motorsports, said in a post on social media on Thursday. With incredible support from her FIA Member Club, the Western India Automobile Association, Atiqa has already represented her country at the MENA Karting Championship Nations Cup and has now started competing in international FIA Karting competitions on her journey to professional racing. Well done Atiqa and we look forward to following your continued success, the FIA added. In May, Atiqa had completed a historic sweep of Round 2 of the Champions of the Future Academy in Greece. Earlier this month, she became the youngest Indian to record two top-10 finishes in a FIA European Championship round in Sweden. Last month, Atiqa had attracted plenty of attention by outqualifying Mercedes junior Niccolo Perico for pole position in Round 3 of the Champions of the Future Academy series in Italy. The FIA too took notice of that standout performance. At the recent Champions of the Future Academy Program event in Italy, 11-year-old Atiqa Mir from India delivered a standout performance, securing pole position and setting an event record against a highly competitive international field. Her achievement reflects the opportunities that accessible competition can create for young drivers as they develop their skills and gain experience on the international stage. Through initiatives that broaden access to motorsport and strengthen talent pathways, the FIA is committed to helping more young people discover, and succeed in our sport, said the FIA in a separate post.
