AHMEDABAD: At least eight people were injured, several houses were attacked and around 100 vehicles were vandalised in a communal clash over a village temple in Gujarats Sabarkantha district on Friday night. Police have detained more than 25 suspects. The incident occurred in Majra village of Prantij taluka, following a disagreement over the planning of upcoming Diwali festivities and administration of the Bhairav temple, four days ago. The verbal disagreement gave way to violent clashes as several individuals armed with sticks and stones began to attack houses and vehicles. At least 10 houses were vandalised and a car was set on fire. By the time the rampage subsided, 26 cars, over 50 bikes, 6 tempos, and 3 tractors lay wrecked. The clash left eight people injured, including three in critical condition. All injured have been shifted to Himmatnagar hospitals for urgent treatment. They went to Patels house, vandalised it, and turned the festival chaos into a riot, said Gram Panchayat member Jagdishbhai Patel. Senior police officers, including the SP, reached the village as the situation spiraled out of control. DySP A K Patel confirmed that 25 to 30 suspects have been rounded up in connection with the violence. A heavy police contingent has been deployed in Majra to maintain tight security and prevent any flare-up. The situation is under control. Legal action has been initiated against both groups, Patel said. Meanwhile, a formal complaint has been filed by members of the one community against the sarpanchs family and over 60 individuals from the other community, alleging property damage worth lakhs.
Armys Northern Command carries out multi-domain, multi-agency warfare exercise
NEW DELHI: The Indian Armys most committed Northern Command carried out a simulation of intense multi-domain, multi-agency exercises using futuristic conflict scenarios. According to a statement by the Army, the exercise challenged commanders, staff and troops with futuristic threats in cyber, space, electromagnetic and cognitive domains. The four-day exercise (13-16 October) named as Vidyut Vidhhwans concluded under the aegis of Headquarters (HQ) Northern Command, with new lessons, improved reflexes and setting of new benchmarks in Indias preparedness for next-generation conflicts. Among the tri-services, while there is a substantial deployment of the Army and Air Force, the Indian Navy also has its complements at select locations. The Army added further that Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), sister services, central government agencies and private sector players participated jointly, underscoring the importance of an integrated and whole of a nation approach to continuously evolving security landscape. Participation by indigenous defence industry players set a new benchmark, achieving Jointness, Atmanirbarta (self-reliance) and Innovation. In addition to the Jammu and Kashmir Police, the CAPFs include the Border Guarding Forces: Border Security Force (BSF), Indo-Tibetan Border Police Force (ITBPF), Shashastra Seema Bal (SSB) and the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), mandated as the lead Internal Security Force. Troops of the Northeast-based Assam Rifles have also been deployed in the Jammu division for the CI/CT Task. The Northern Command handles borders with both China and Pakistan, including sensitive areas such as Kargil, Siachen, and Eastern Ladakh, where tensions with China continue due to the ongoing standoff. The spectrum of threats handled by Northern Command is not multi-domain, including the traditional border-related issues, long-standing counter terrorism/counter insurgency (CI/CT), but also the modern offence and defence spectrum, which includes the cyber, space and others, as mentioned earlier in the report. As brought out earlier by the TNIE , with Pakistan, India shares a total of 3,323 km border which is divided into three parts: the International Border (IB) (approximately 2,400 km from Gujarat to the north banks of Chenab in Akhnoor in Jammu), the Line of Control (LoC), (740 km long and runs from parts of Jammu to parts of Leh) and the Actual Ground Position Line (AGPL) (110 km long dividing the Siachen region extending from NJ 9842 to Indira Col in the north.) With China, the length of the border, as per the Ministry of Home is 3488km, which is not fully demarcated. There has been a dense deployment of troops in Eastern Ladakh since May 2020, which started with a standoff situation. Both in Pakistan and China borders we are strong: Army Vice Chief During the exercise, Troops deployed in the forward areas were practised in situations like cyber intrusion, spectrum saturation, electronic jamming, spoofing and cognitive attacks., the Army said. Lt Gen Pratik Sharma, Northern Army Commander, while interacting with the troops, said, In modern warfare, the lines are blurring between domains, so we need to leverage niche technology and keep innovating. A whole of nation approach is required to protect our territorial integrity and critical assets and also unleash punitive action on adversaries if the situation so demands. Before taking charge as the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief (GOC-in-C), Northern Command, General Pratik Sharma was at New Delhi based Army Headquarters as the Director General Military Operations (DGMO) followed by his elevation to the crucial post of Deputy Chief of Army Staff handling the strategy for the more than a million strong Indian Army, with the operations and intelligence directorates under him. As per the Army, initiated by the thoughtful dialogue during Samvad held at Mathura on October 4, the exercise demonstrated that readiness for future warfare begins with open minds and seamless teamwork. The Northern Command now stands better equipped, united and prepared to defend against emergent threats with strategic foresight and multi-domain synergy, said the Army.

Saurashtra retains grip in Gujarat govt overhaul
AHMEDABAD: Chief Minister Bhupendra Patels 3.0 cabinet is a carefully calculated blend of caste, region, youth, and power, clearly designed with an eye on the 2027 Assembly elections and upcoming municipal polls. Every decisionfrom who sits at the table to the age and wealth of ministerssends a message about the Gujarat BJPs strategy and priorities. Saurashtra remains central to the BJPs calculations. Once the stronghold of the late former CM Vijay Rupani, Saurashtra continues to hold political weight even without him. Nine of the 26 ministers come from Saurashtra-Kutch, showing the regions continued influence in municipal and Assembly elections. Central Gujarat has seven ministers, while South and North Gujarat have increased in numbers but lost some of their relative importance. Caste equations have been sharply recalibrated. The party has mirrored its decision to elevate an OBC leader as state BJP president within the cabinet as well. OBC leaders now hold the largest share with eight ministers, surpassing the seven ministers from the Patidars. This reverses the previous 4:6 Patidar-OBC ratio, though the Patidar presence has almost doubled. Dalit representation has also grown, from one minister to three, including two women, signalling a broader social outreach. In total, three women ministers have been included, reinforcing the BJPs strategy of inclusive representation. Zone-wise, the tilt is unmistakable. With both the Chief Minister and the State BJP President hailing from Ahmedabad, Saurashtra has been strategically amplified as a counterbalance. Nine ministers from Saurashtra-Kutch lead the tally, followed by seven from Central Gujarat. South and North Gujarat have increased their numerical strength but lost relative weightage in percentage terms. The cabinets composition extends beyond caste and geography. Youth and generational change are visible. The average age of ministers has dropped from 60 to 55. Fresh faces like Harsh Sanghvi, Rivaba Jadeja, Praveen Mali, and Kaushik Vekariaall under 40mark a conscious effort to groom the next generation of leadership. This is complemented by a recalibration of wealth in the cabinet. With Balwantsinh Rajput, the richest minister in the previous cabinet with assets of Rs 324 crore, out of the ministry, the average wealth of ministers has come down from Rs 30 crore to Rs 11 crore. The inclusion of Rivaba Jadeja shows a shift from heavy financial power to a more politically flexible profile.

NEW DELHI: In a significant verdict, the Supreme Court on Friday expressed concern over the discrimination faced by transgender persons despite the enactment of a law in 2019, and directed the Centre to come out with an equal opportunity policy within three months of a report submitted by an advisory panel. A bench of Justices J B Pardiwala and R Mahadevan said the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act of 2019 and its corresponding rules have been rutishly reduced to dead letters, and the Centre and the states have exhibited a grossly apathetic attitude towards them. The community continues to face discrimination and marginalisation, with a scarcity of healthcare, economic opportunities, and non-inclusive educational policies adding to their struggles, the bench said. Expressing dismay over the discrimination, the bench said that despite more than 10 years since this court's judgment in the NALSA case in 2014 that prompted Parliament to bring in place a statute in 2019, the transgender community has to preponderantly resort to the writ jurisdiction of High Courts and this court to redress their grievances. On discrimination in employment and professional spaces, the bench said that despite the enforcement of the 2019 Act and the 2020 rules, the transgender community faces entry barriers in employment and professional spaces. Systemic barriers like the absence of the option of a 'third gender' make the entry of transgender persons in the organised workforce impossible. Even if they are hired, they are expected to keep their identity hidden, which is grossly violative of one's right to dignity under Article 21, the bench said. The top court delivered its verdict on a plea filed by a transgender woman who was aggrieved by the discrimination and humiliation she faced in employment, which allegedly resulted in her termination from two private schools in Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat. The court directed the Centre, Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat governments, and the school in Gujarat to pay Rs 50,000 each to the petitioner for the discrimination she faced. The bench constituted an advisory committee to address the concerns of the transgender community, headed by former Delhi High Court judge Asha Menon, saying, The issue at hand requires a more incisive study by a dedicated committee, well-equipped to recommend a viable equal opportunity policy that ought to be introduced by the Union and state governments as well as provide insightful suggestions on other aspects affecting the lives of the transgender community. The bench asked the panel to prepare its report and/or draft policy within six months from the date of judgment and directed the Centre to ring forth its own equal opportunity policy in place, within three months from the date the committee submits its report and/or policy draft. In case any establishment does not have a policy of its own, the policy that the Union would bring in place shall be enforceable at such an establishment, it said. The top court, in its 177-page verdict, made some suggestions, saying it was disheartened to note that there are several provisions in both the 2019 Act and the 2020 Rules, which remain mere aspirations on paper despite the same being couched in a mandatory language. Exercising its plenary powers under Article 142 of the Constitution, the top court directed that the appellate authority before which transgender persons may exercise their right to appeal against the decision of the district magistrate be designated as per Rule 9 of the 2020 Rules in every State and Union territory. It also said a welfare board for transgender persons, as envisaged under the 2020 Rules, be created in every state and UT for the purpose of protecting their rights and interests and also facilitating access to schemes and welfare measures. The top court directed the setting up of a Transgender Protection Cell under the charge of the district magistrate in each district and under the director general of police in each state and UT to monitor the prosecution of cases of offences against transgender persons. The Union of India and all the states shall ensure that the aforesaid directions are strictly complied with within a period of three months from the date of the pronouncement of this judgment, the bench said, adding that a dedicated nationwide toll-free helpline number be set up to address the contravention of any provision of the 2019 law. It made various suggestions, including asking the Centre to consider formulating and issuing specific directions to ensure that no transwoman is arrested without the presence of a female officer. The bench said that members of the transgender community face challenges within public institutions such as educational establishments, hospitals, transport hubs, and government offices due to the lack of effective measures ensuring reasonable accommodation. It suggested that all establishments, including workplaces, may endeavour towards cultivating an environment that is gender-inclusive and conducive to the free expression of identity by transgender persons, without fear or stigma. Security check-ins at airports, Metro stations, bus stands, seaports, workplaces, shopping complexes, malls, cinema halls, and other public spaces may create special gender-diverse screening points for transgender persons along with the sensitisation of security personnel at such security checks, it said.

Gujarat BJP cabinet expansion leaves ex-Congress leaders Hardik Patel, Alpesh Thakor out in the cold
AHMEDABAD: The Gujarat cabinet expansion under Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel has left several ambitious turncoat leaders out in the cold. Hardik Patel and Alpesh Thakor, once fiery faces of agitations that shook the BJP, now find themselves sidelined within the very party they joined to climb higher. With other Congress defectors also excluded, the BJP has sent a clear political message: the path to power runs through party loyalty, not past glory. The Bhupendra Patel 3.0 cabinet expansion has landed like a political thunderbolt for several former Congress leaders who crossed over to the BJP, hoping for a ministerial berth. In one calculated move, the BJP has curtailed the ambitions of prominent turncoats, signalling who really holds the reins of power within Gujarats ruling party. The two names drawing the most attention are Hardik Patel and Alpesh Thakor. Hardik, once the fiery face of the Patidar agitation, rattled the BJP, and Alpesh, who rose from the OBC movement with a loyal grassroots base, entered the BJP hoping to leverage their political capital. However, when the cabinet list was announced, both were left out, fueling speculation about their future relevance. Their exclusion was part of a broader pattern. Raghavji Patel and Balwantsinh Rajput, two former Congressmen who had previously held ministerial positions, were also dropped. For the BJP, it was a clean pruning of past imports to make way for loyalists and fresh faces. Gujarat Cabinet reshuffle: Harsh Sanghavi sworn in as Deputy CM; Jadejas wife Rivaba becomes minister Hardik Patels political journey has been especially symbolic. Once a force that challenged the BJP from outside, he joined the party after leading the Patidar reservation movement. After joining Congress and then the BJP, he positioned himself as a rising power in his Viramgam constituency through high-profile social media campaigns and fiery statements. However, the BJPs leadership viewed it differently. By keeping him out, the party sent a quiet but firm reminder that agitation leadership does not guarantee cabinet power. Alpesh Thakors setback is equally revealing. Once supported by OBC, SC, and ST communities during the reservation movement, he established himself as a community leader before joining Congress. He later resigned and joined the BJP, reportedly aiming for the Deputy Chief Minister post. However, when the cabinet list was finalised, Vav MLA Swaroopji Thakor was included. The message was unmistakable: leading mass movements does not guarantee a ministerial position within the BJP. C.J. Chavdas story completes the pattern. Once part of Congresss JCB trio alongside Jagdish Thakor and Baldevji Thakor, he left a secure Congress position to join the BJP, hoping for a cabinet berth after his Vijapur victory. But his name was cut in favour of Sanjay Singh Mahida, selected under the Kshatriya community quota. Chavdas ministerial ambitions have been left on hold indefinitely. The reshuffle has faced strong criticism from Congress, with leaders arguing that Hardik and Alpesh, who once mobilised thousands against the BJP, betrayed their communities by switching sides only to be sidelined. Within the BJP, however, the move is viewed as a strategic assertion of power discipline, emphasising that loyalty to the party outweighs past accomplishments. In Gujarats political landscape, agitators who once roared against the establishment now stand outside the gates of power, waiting, watching, and learning the hard rules of the BJPs game.

21 ministers sworn in after mass resignations; BJP reshuffle signals early groundwork for 2027 Assembly polls
AHMEDABAD: The BJP government in Gujarat carried out a cabinet reshuffle on Friday, with state Home Minister Harsh Sanghavi sworn in as Deputy Chief Minister and cricketer Ravindra Jadejas wife, Rivaba Jadeja, inducted as a minister. Governor Acharya Devvrat administered the oath to 26 ministers, including Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, as each incoming leader held the Bhagavad Gita in hand, an unmistakable symbol of ideological assertion. The reshuffle blends caste arithmetic, political muscle, and strategic messaging, bringing in 19 new faces while removing several old and Congress-origin ministers. The new cabinet draws heavily on new faces and social balance: seven Patidars, eight OBCs, three Scheduled Castes, four Scheduled Tribes, and three women. The oath-taking ceremony turned into a display of precise political engineering, signalling both continuity and controlled disruption. Of the 26 ministers, only six from the old team were retained, while 10 were dropped and 19 inducted afresh, a clear signal that the BJP is scripting a fresh power map ahead of the 2027 Assembly election. Harsh Sanghavi took the oath first, marking his formal elevation as Deputy Chief Minister, a position held by only five others in Gujarats political history. His rise is more than ceremonial; it cements his place as a key power centre in the Bhupendra Patel government and reflects the BJPs calibrated grooming of its next rung of leadership. Fresh blood, veterans and strategic reshuffle The Chief Minister personally informed the retained ministers, reinforcing their political weight, while BJP state president Jagdish Vishwakarma communicated with the new entrants. Beneath the smooth transition lies a quiet purge, particularly of original Congress turncoats. Of five such ministers in the previous cabinet, only Kunwarji Bavaliya and Arjun Modhwadia survive. The restBalwantsinh Rajput, Bhikhusinh Parmar, Kunwarji Halpati, and Raghavji Patelhave been removed. This reset carries historical echoes. Gujarat has seen only five Deputy Chief Ministers since its formation: Chiman Patel and Kantilal Ghiya (1972), Keshubhai Patel (1990), Narhari Amin (1994), and Nitin Patel in the Rupani era. Sanghavi now becomes the sixth, underlining the BJPs generational transition at the top. Saurashtra, long a key region in Gujarats caste-political matrix, has also seen a tight pruning. Of the five Saurashtra ministers in 2022, only Kunwarji Bavaliya and Parshottam Solanki retain their berths. Mulu Bera, Raghavji Patel, and Bhanuben Babaria have been cut, making way for Rivaba Jadeja as part of the BJPs womens representation strategy. Rivabas entry is both symbolic and tactical: it blends celebrity pull with electoral arithmetic in Jamnagar, while simultaneously edging out Mulu Bera. Jitu Vaghani, former Gujarat BJP president and Education Minister, has made a comeback after being dropped in 2022. His return strengthens the Bhavnagar belts stake in the new power equation. The reshuffle also carries an organisational imprint, with Kaushik Vekaria, known for his internal party influence in Amreli, gaining prominence. The Sanghavi elevation, coupled with this caste-balanced, politically calibrated cabinet, marks a strategic consolidation by the BJP, merging loyalty, legacy, and fresh optics.
