Actress Hina Khan visits Army school in Boniyar, praises students
Srinagar, Aug 27: Film and television actress Hina Khan on Thursday expressed happiness over visiting the border area of Boniyar in north Kashmir and interacting with students at Army Goodwill School. The actress, who hails from Srinagar, interacted with students and later spoke to the media, praising their confidence, intelligence and clarity about their career goals. I was happy to meet the students here and see their confidence level. I got to know a lot about the school and its infrastructure, Khan said. She said the students were confident and intelligent, adding that she was impressed to learn that several of them had qualified for the NEET examination. Children are very confident and intelligent. I learnt that many of them have qualified NEET. They are clear about their goals in life. Some want to become doctors, while others want to become engineers. They are all clear about their careers, she said. Khan credited the defence forces for establishing and maintaining schools in remote and border areas and providing quality education to children. I think the credit goes to the defence forces for the way they have planned so many schools in such small and remote areas. I was telling them to do something similar in the main city as well so that students can get good education in Srinagar too, she said. Praising the teachers and facilities at the school, she said, They have wonderful teachers and the way the students are being taught is amazing. The defence forces are maintaining everything so well. Recalling her interaction with the students, Khan said many of them had been studying at the school since nursery and had continued their education there up to Classes 10 or 12. When I asked the kids about their studies, they said they had been studying in the school since nursery and had now reached Class 10 or 12. When you dont leave a school, you can understand its importance, she said. The actress also encouraged the students to remain focused on their ambitions and not lose their desire to achieve something in life. They have a thirst to do something in their life and that thirst should not vanish. I know it is a bit tough and hard. We have also crossed this phase and they too have to cross it. The fruit of this hard work is going to be very fruitful, she said. Khan advised the students to maintain a balance in life while keeping their parents happy and taking care of their own well-being. The 38-year-old actress is known for her appearances in television shows including Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai and her participation in Bigg Boss. Khan, who originally hails from Srinagar, has also recently shared videos of herself singing Kashmiri songs during a marriage ceremony in the city.

Sidharth Malhotra is set to explore the world of Indian folklore with The Vvaan, an upcoming fantasy adventure also starring Tamannaah Bhatia. For the actor, preparing for the role involved more than achieving a particular physique. He focused on developing the physicality required for a character navigating the film's demanding world. Speaking about his approach to preparing for physically demanding roles, Sidharth said, For me, the physical preparation always starts with understanding the character and what the world demands of him. I don't believe you can just arrive on set and expect the physicality to come together. It has to become part of the character. The actor explained that he distinguishes between simply looking fit and being physically ready for the requirements of a role. For The Vvaan, this meant considering how his character moves and responds to different situations. There is a difference between looking fit and being physically prepared for a role. For Vvaan, I had to think about how this character moves, how he reacts, how he carries himself and how he physically survives everything the story puts him through. The training has to support all of that, he said. Sidharth has previously undergone specialised training for action-oriented roles. For Yodha, he worked on close-quarter and hand-to-hand combat with Craig Macrae and his team, while also focusing on his overall conditioning. His preparation for The Vvaan similarly involved developing functional strength and agility suited to the character. The actor said he enjoys the physical aspect of preparing for his films, particularly when it allows him to learn something new for a role. I actually enjoy the physical side of preparing for a film. I like being active, and I like pushing myself to learn something new for every character, Sidharth said. He added, The goal isn't to make the training visible. The goal is for the audience to believe the character when they see him on screen. According to Sidharth, maintaining a sense of realism was particularly important for The Vvaan, given its fantastical setting. The world of Vvaan is unlike anything I've done before. So the responsibility was to make sure that even within this fantastical setting, the character always feels grounded and believable, he said. The Vvaan is rooted in folklore and combines elements of fantasy, adventure, mystery and humour. The film is written by Arunabh Kumar and directed by Deepak Mishra, with Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia in the lead roles. The project also marks a collaboration between TVF, Balaji Motion Pictures and 11.11 Production. Presented by Balaji Motion Pictures, a division of Balaji Telefilms Ltd, in association with TVF and 11.11 Production, the film is produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ektaa R Kapoor, Arunabh Kumar and Niraj Kothari. Manu Anand serves as the director of photography and visual director. The Vvaan is scheduled to release in cinemas on September 25, 2026.

Dehradun T20 League: As Uttarakhand prepares for its biggest franchise cricket showcase, a senior cricket administrator has hailed the inaugural Dehradun T20 League 2026 as a transformative milestone that will reshape the pathway for grassroots cricketers across the state. Speaking about the vision behind the league and its impact on the regions youth, former Vice-President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and former secretary of the Cricket Association of Uttarakhand Mahim Verma emphasised that the tournament was built specifically to bridge the gap between local talent and professional cricket. Our main goal with the Dehradun T20 League is to give our boys the kind of environment that speeds up their growth. Uttarakhand has no shortage of raw talent, but what our young players needed was a high-exposure platform where they could test themselves under pressure, learn professional match standards, and get noticed, Verma said. The tournament, scheduled to run from September 2 to 9 at the Abhimanyu Cricket Academy in Dehradun, will see six franchise teamsRishikesh Dragons, Doiwala Kings, Mussoorie Thunder, Herbertpur Knightriders, Vikasnagar Dhamaka, and Selaqui Strikerscompete over 18 high intensity matches. Echoing this vision, Navneet Mishra, CEO of the Dehradun T20 League, highlighted the operational excellence and long-term ecosystem being created for the players. We haven't spared any effort in making sure this league matches the highest professional standards in terms of infrastructure, broadcast, and player facilities. Our focus is to create an ecosystem where young athletes feel valued and inspired to perform at their absolute best. Seeing the enthusiasm from players and franchises alike gives us complete confidence that this league will become a cornerstone for cricket development in the region, Mishra stated. For many emerging players in the state, the league offers an unprecedented opportunity to rub shoulders with experienced coaches and match-winners, providing them with lessons that go far beyond a single week of cricket. When an 18- or 19-year-old kid shares a dugout with established domestic names, their entire perspective changes. They learn how to handle big-match pressure, how to prepare mentally, and how to carry themselves as professionals. That exposure is priceless, and it will give them the confidence to perform at higher levels of Indian cricket, Verma added.

Would A Child Plan Or Term Plus SIP Still Fund The Goal If A Parent Dies?
Most comparisons between a child insurance plan and a term policy paired with a SIP focus on which one grows your money faster. That's the wrong question to lead with. The actual point of either option is to make sure a specific goal, say 50,00,000 for a child's education in 15 years, still gets funded if the parent paying for it doesn't make it to the finish line. Almost nobody actually stress tests that scenario with real numbers before choosing. Here's what happens to each option if the parent dies partway through. Why Is This The Wrong Comparison Most Articles Make? Comparing returns assumes the parent survives the entire term, which is the outcome nobody actually needs protection for. The real test of either structure is what happens in the scenario where protection matters, the parent dying mid way through the goal. If a plan performs beautifully as long as nothing goes wrong, it hasn't actually been tested. What Happens To A Term Plus SIP Combo If The Parent Dies At Year Five? Say the goal is 50,00,000 in 15 years, and to get there through a SIP growing at an assumed 10% a year, the required contribution is about 12,450 a month. By year five, five years of that SIP has built up roughly 9,60,750. If the parent dies at this point, the term insurance pays out a lump sum to the family, separate from the SIP itself. What happens next depends entirely on what the family actually does with that money and their own finances going forward. If they keep the 12,450 monthly contribution going for the remaining ten years, using income from the term payout or other sources, the existing 9,60,750 plus ten more years of contributions reaches almost exactly the original 50,00,000 target. The math works out. But if the family doesn't continue those monthly contributions, whether because the term payout gets absorbed into immediate expenses, debt, or simply because nobody kept managing it, that 9,60,750 just sits and grows on its own. By year 15, it reaches only about 24,91,945, roughly half the original target, a shortfall of about 25,08,055 on the goal it was meant to fund. What Happens To A Child Insurance Plan In The Exact Same Scenario? Most child insurance plans include a built-in feature, often called a premium waiver or payor benefit, that activates automatically if the parent paying the premiums dies. All future premiums are waived, the policy continues exactly as originally structured, and the full maturity benefit, the original 50,00,000 target in this example, still gets paid out on schedule. No family member has to remember to do anything, redirect any money, or make any investment decisions during what's already the hardest period of their life. That's the actual mechanical difference. It isn't about which option earns more. It's that one option requires a grieving family to execute a plan correctly for ten more years, and the other doesn't require them to do anything at all. Does That Mean The Child Plan Always Wins? No, and this is the part that gets left out when this comparison turns into a sales pitch. In the much more likely scenario where the parent lives through the entire term, a pure term plus SIP combination will very often build a larger corpus for the same monthly outlay, since a straightforward money saving plan invested in growth assets tends to outperform the blended, more conservative return most child insurance plans are structured to deliver. You're comparing two different things: a guarantee that costs you some growth potential, against growth potential that comes with no guarantee at all if things go wrong. What Should You Actually Weigh Before Choosing? Question Favors term plus SIP Favors a child insurance plan Will the surviving parent or family actually manage investments consistently for years? Yes, confident in this Not certain, or no one else is equipped to Is the term cover sized generously enough to also fund continuing the SIP? Yes Doesn't matter as much here Do you want the goal amount fixed and certain no matter what happens? No, comfortable with some variability Yes, certainty matters more than upside Is maximizing the final corpus the top priority if nothing goes wrong? Yes Growth is secondary to guaranteed floor Who Should Lean Toward A Child Insurance Plan For This Goal? If you're not confident a spouse or family member would keep a SIP running through years of grief, life changes, or simply losing track, or if there's genuinely no one positioned to manage that money on the child's behalf, the automatic premium waiver removes that entire risk from the equation. Who Should Not Rely On Term Plus SIP Alone For This Goal? Don't lean purely on term plus SIP if your term cover isn't sized to comfortably absorb both ongoing family expenses and continuing this specific goal's contributions. Underinsured term cover is the most common reason this combination fails in practice, not poor investment choices. If the payout barely covers a couple of years of expenses, there's nothing left to keep the SIP going, and the goal quietly falls behind. What Should You Actually Do? Size the term cover first, generously enough that continuing every existing financial commitment, including this goal's monthly contribution, is realistic without touching the core payout. If you're confident that discipline will hold, term plus SIP usually builds more toward the same goal. If you'd rather remove that dependency entirely, a child insurance plan with a premium waiver benefit guarantees the number regardless of what happens next. Many families split the difference, covering part of the target through a plan with a built in guarantee and the rest through growth investments, so the worst case still funds something close to the full goal, and the best case still leaves room to do better.

Dehradun T20 Leagues Goal Is To Provide An Environment That Speeds Up Their Growth: Mahim Verma
Dehradun T20 League: Former BCCI vice-president and former Cricket Association of Uttarakhand secretary Mahim Verma believes the inaugural Dehradun T20 League 2026 will provide a crucial platform for young cricketers in the state, offering them greater exposure and an opportunity to develop in a professional competitive environment. The six-team franchise tournament will be held from September 2 to 9 at the Abhimanyu Cricket Academy in Dehradun, featuring Rishikesh Dragons, Doiwala Kings, Mussoorie Thunder, Herbertpur Knightriders, Vikasnagar Dhamaka and Selaqui Strikers. A total of 18 matches will be played during the competition. Verma said one of the league's primary objectives was to bridge the gap between grassroots cricket and the professional game by giving promising players an environment in which they could test themselves under pressure. Our main goal with the Dehradun T20 League is to give our boys the kind of environment that speeds up their growth. Uttarakhand has no shortage of raw talent, but what our young players needed was a high-exposure platform where they could test themselves under pressure, learn professional match standards, and get noticed, Verma said. Navneet Mishra, CEO of the Dehradun T20 League, said organisers had focused on creating a professional ecosystem for players through investment in infrastructure, broadcast facilities and player welfare. We haven't spared any effort in making sure this league matches the highest professional standards in terms of infrastructure, broadcast, and player facilities. Our focus is to create an ecosystem where young athletes feel valued and inspired to perform at their absolute best. Seeing the enthusiasm from players and franchises alike gives us complete confidence that this league will become a cornerstone for cricket development in the region, Mishra stated. According to Verma, one of the key benefits for emerging players will be the opportunity to share dressing rooms and playing environments with experienced domestic cricketers, helping them understand the demands of competing at higher levels. When an 18 or 19-year-old kid shares a dugout with established domestic names, their entire perspective changes. They learn how to handle big-match pressure, how to prepare mentally, and how to carry themselves as professionals. That exposure is priceless, and it will give them the confidence to perform at higher levels of Indian cricket, Verma added. All 18 matches, including 15 league fixtures, two semi-finals and the final, will provide the tournament and its players a wider audience.

Advanced care must become a right, not a privilege: LG Sinha
Srinagar, Aug 26:Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Wednesday said advanced care must become a right, not a privilege. Addressing the Quaternary Healthcare and Research Summit in Srinagar, LG Sinha emphasised that the summit marks a turning point in Jammu and Kashmir and Indias healthcare journey, where J&K and the nation must move beyond tertiary care and embrace quaternary-level treatment and research to ensure equal access for all citizens. Recalling his visit to Akhnoor during the 'Back to Village' programme in 2020, he shared a poignant interaction with doctors who discussed diagnosis for rare diseases and need for modern equipment. The LG said this moment revealed the greatest distance confronting us in J&K is the gap between healthcare available in small district hospitals and the healthcare actually required. He stressed that bridging this gap is a national priority. LG Sinha highlighted Indias remarkable progress under the leadership of the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi. He said free treatment for more than 56 crore citizens surpassed the combined population of the US, France, Italy, and the UK. The LG said annual vaccination campaigns in the country covering 7 crore children, equal to the population of the UK. He said even e-Sanjeevani telemedicine providing care to 37 crore people annually, exceeding the population of the US. Expansion of infrastructure with 23 AIIMS, 2,045 medical colleges, and in Jammu Kashmir, 2 AIIMS, 10 medical colleges, 2 State Cancer Institutes, a Bone and Joint Hospital, a Paediatric Hospital, 52 nursing colleges, 23 paramedical colleges, and 5 pharmacy colleges are providing robust support to healthcare ecosystem. These figures show that India has succeeded in elevating primary, secondary, and tertiary care. But the time has come to scale up tertiary hospitals into quaternary centres, LG Sinha said. He also stressed that the advanced care must no longer remain a luxury confined to metropolitan cities. Quaternary care should not be a privilege reserved for the economically rich section of society. It must become a right of citizenship and a guarantee of the nation. For a very long time, quaternary care has been viewed as a luxury available only in metropolitan cities and accessible only to those who can afford it. I wish to state clearly from this platform that this era must now come to an end. The cooperation of all the stakeholders, private hospitals and research centres is essential for fulfilling this resolve, the LG said. He called upon hospitals to transform themselves into research institutions capable of organ transplantation, robotic and precision surgery, advanced genomics, cellular therapies, and AI-supported diagnostics. LG Sinha urged hospitals to allocate annual budgets for specialised infrastructure such as modern operating theatres and proton-beam therapy facilities. We must always remember that a quaternary centre should be capable of offering every diagnosis and treatment permitted by science. Therefore, hospitals will also have to make budgetary provisions to access expensive and modern technologies such as robotic surgery, gene therapy, proton-beam therapy and artificial-intelligence-based advanced diagnostics. While preparing the annual budget, hospitals should allocate funds each year for specialised infrastructure. This will enable them to gradually develop facilities such as modern operating theatres for delicate and complex procedures, he said. The LG also suggested building of a new corridor to connect district hospitals and tertiary centres directly with quaternary-care institutions, accelerating diagnostics, imaging, and specialist consultations. He said telemedicine and AI-enabled diagnostic tools should be integrated into standard healthcare infrastructure. He appealed for expanded fellowship and training opportunities in organ transplantation, oncology, genomics, and critical care. Advanced care is impossible without advanced specialists, LG Sinha said. He also suggested a mission uniting Himalayan states, J&K, universities, hospitals, private institutions, and innovators to jointly advance biomedical research and overcome funding challenges. We must develop new inventions ourselves instead of importing innovation from abroad, the LG said. He urged that hospitals be regarded as strategic national assets just like highways and ports, ensuring their preservation and development with equal dedication. We must create a robust quaternary-care framework that guarantees equal access to the son of a farmer and to a millionaire living in a city. This task will not be easy, but it must be undertaken as a matter of national dedication and service. Let us work together at this summit to prepare a strategy that will be remembered for the precise and effective implementation of these goals, LG Sinha said. On the occasion, he released Summit Souvenir and several publications. M Srinivas, Member, NITI Aayog; Atal Dulloo, Chief Secretary; Dr Digambar Behera, President, National Academy of Medical Sciences; Dr Kameshwar Prasad; M Raju, Commissioner Secretary, Health and Medical Education Department; Prof M Ashraf Ganie, Director SKIMS; heads of various institutions, researchers, scientists, and senior officials were also present on the occasion.

Advanced healthcare must no longer remain luxury: LG Sinha
Srinagar, Aug 26: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Wednesday said that quaternary care should not be a privilege reserved for the economically rich section of society. It must become a right of citizenship and a guarantee of the nation, the LG said as he addressed the Quaternary Healthcare & Research Summit in Srinagar. He added that the summit marks a turning point in Jammu Kashmir and India's healthcare journey. The Lieutenant Governor said the time has come to move beyond tertiary care and embrace quaternary-level treatment and research to ensure equal access for all citizens. Recalling his visit to Akhnoor during the Back to Village programme in 2020, the Lieutenant Governor shared a poignant interaction with doctors who discussed diagnosis for rare diseases and the need for modern equipment. He said this moment revealed that the greatest distance confronting us in the UT is the gap between healthcare available in small district hospitals and the healthcare actually required. He stressed that bridging this gap is a national priority. Sinha highlighted India's remarkable progress under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said free treatment for more than 56 crore citizens surpassed the combined population of the US, France, Italy, and the UK. He noted annual vaccination campaigns in the country covering 7 crore children, equal to the population of the UK, and e-Sanjeevani telemedicine providing care to 37 crore people annually, exceeding the population of the US. Expansion of infrastructure with 23 AIIMS, 2,045 medical colleges, and in Jammu Kashmir, 2 AIIMS, 10 medical colleges, 2 State Cancer Institutes, a Bone and Joint Hospital, a Paediatric Hospital, 52 nursing colleges, 23 paramedical colleges, and 5 pharmacy colleges are providing robust support to healthcare ecosystem. These figures show that India has succeeded in elevating primary, secondary, and tertiary care. But the time has come to scale up tertiary hospitals into quaternary centres, he said. The Lieutenant Governor stressed that advanced care must no longer remain a luxury confined to metropolitan cities. For a very long time, quaternary care has been viewed as a luxury available only in metropolitan cities and accessible only to those who can afford it. I wish to state clearly from this platform that this era must now come to an end. The cooperation of all the stakeholders, private hospitals and research centres is essential for fulfilling this resolve, he said. He called upon hospitals to transform themselves into research institutions capable of organ transplantation, robotic and precision surgery, advanced genomics, cellular therapies, and AI-supported diagnostics. He urged hospitals to allocate annual budgets for specialised infrastructure such as modern operating theatres and proton-beam therapy facilities. While preparing the annual budget, hospitals should allocate funds each year for specialised infrastructure.

India's BIG Nuclear Missile Shift: DRDO Invites Private Industry To Help Develop Agni Missiles
India just made a major shift in how its most closely guarded weapons get built. DRDO has opened its Strategic Systems programme the one behind the Agni missile series to private industry for the first time ever. Companies will be shortlisted on technical and financial criteria, with at least two firms selected per project as development-cum-production partners. This isn't private companies building nuclear bombs; DRDO retains full control over design and specifications. But it does mean India's nuclear deterrent supply chain now includes private players, aimed at speeding up production after a successful Agni missile test with MIRV technology earlier this year. This video breaks down what's actually changing, how it connects to India's earlier tactical missile reforms, and why this could reshape India's defence self-reliance goals. Full explainer inside.

Psychology suggests that healthy motivation is not about forcing everyone to create a huge ambition.
