24 mining alerts in J&K in 5 years, just one confirmed illegal: Centre
Jammu and Kashmir recorded 24 alerts under the Mining Surveillance System (MSS) over five years, but only one was confirmed as unauthorised mining after field verification, the Lok Sabha was told Wednesday. The data, presented by the Ministry of Mines, covers 2021-22 to 2025-26. Pulwama accounted for the lone confirmed case in J&K as detected by the UT government. J&K recorded four MSS triggers in 2021-22, none in 2022-23, seven in 2023-24 and 13 in 2024-25. No trigger was recorded in 2025-26. The figures show that 23 of the 24 alerts did not result in a confirmed case after field verification. Across India, the MSS generated 679 triggers during the five-year period. State governments confirmed 42 cases of unauthorised mining after verification. Goa recorded the highest number of confirmed cases at 17, followed by Gujarat with seven and Madhya Pradesh with six. Andhra Pradesh recorded four, Tamil Nadu three and Karnataka two. Maharashtra and Rajasthan recorded one each. The Ministry described the MSS as a supplementary mechanism for detecting suspected unauthorised mining. Alerts are sent to concerned state governments for field verification by district-level officials. Under Section 23C of the Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Act, 1957, state governments are empowered to frame rules to prevent illegal mining, transportation and storage of minerals and take enforcement action. The Centre said details of penalties imposed, minerals recovered and compensation realised in cases arising from MSS triggers are maintained by respective state governments. It, therefore, did not provide consolidated state-wise figures on penalties or recoveries. The Ministry also said enforcement against illegal mining falls within the purview of State Governments, which are responsible for taking action after unauthorised mining is established through field verification.

'Awarapan 2' leads 'Batwara 1947' by
Highlights Awarapan 2 has generated around 270,000 in gross advance bookings Batwara 1947 has recorded around 67,500 in day-one pre-sales Emraan Hashmis sequel has sold more than 100,000 tickets ahead of the Independence Day clash Emraan Hashmis Awarapan 2 is pulling away from Sunny Deols Batwara 1947 before the two films face off at the box office, with the sequel currently holding a fourfold lead in advance bookings. The latest figures show Awarapan 2 at around 270,000 in gross pre-sales, compared with approximately 67,500 for Batwara 1947 . The numbers give the sequel a strong early advantage ahead of the Independence Day weekend. More than 100,000 tickets already sold Awarapan 2 has sold approximately 102,470 tickets across 5,934 shows, with its potential gross rising to around 450,000 when blocked seats are included. Maharashtra is currently its biggest market, contributing roughly 94,000 to the gross bookings. Delhi follows at about 92,000, while Uttar Pradesh has recorded around 51,000. Gujarat stands at approximately 37,000 and West Bengal at 30,000. The early numbers suggest that the 2007 original's long-running popularity is translating into interest for the sequel. Awarapan developed a strong following over the years, giving the new film a built-in nostalgia factor ahead of its release. Directed by Nitin Kakkar, Awarapan 2 stars Emraan Hashmi, Disha Patani and Shabana Azmi. Batwara 1947 has a tougher opening battle Batwara 1947 has sold 29,261 tickets across 5,672 shows, generating around 67,500 in day-one advance bookings. Its potential gross, including blocked seats, currently stands at approximately 204,000. Delhi is leading the film's bookings at around 49,000, followed by Maharashtra at 36,000. Gujarat has contributed roughly 22,000, while Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan have recorded around 19,500 and 12,500 respectively. The Rajkumar Santoshi-directed film stars Sunny Deol, Preity Zinta, Shabana Azmi, Ali Fazal and Karan Deol. Set against the backdrop of Partition, it is backed by Aamir Khan Productions. The Independence Day clash is already taking shape The gap between the two releases is significant before either film reaches cinemas. Awarapan 2 has both a substantially higher ticket count and gross advance collection, while Batwara 1947 is currently relying on its Independence Day release and the appeal of its star cast and subject. The early numbers do not determine the final box-office result, but they show where audience interest is leaning before the first shows begin. Awarapan 2 is currently winning the pre-release race, with nostalgia giving Hashmis sequel a notable advantage.

Our teams are not only competing strongly but are also winning matches with confidence and authority. The latest 41 victory over Gujarat is another powerful example of this transformation. This is not merely a victory in one matchit is the result of a better system, better selection and a focused approach towards player development since 2025. Hockey Jammu & Kashmir deserves appreciation for bringing this positive change to the game. The players and coaching staff deserve equal credit for their dedication, hard work and commitment.

Global Youth Festival 2026 draws 2,000 to Harrow for a celebration of happiness and wellbeing
More than 2,000 people gathered at Harrow Leisure Centre on Sunday (9) for the Global Youth Festival London Edition 2026, turning the venue into a vibrant celebration of wellbeing, spirituality, creativity and community. Held under the theme Hack Your Happiness, the day-long festival brought together young people, families and members of the wider community for an innovative programme combining ancient wisdom with contemporary approaches to wellbeing. The festival formed a major highlight of Pujya Gurudevshri Rakeshjis UK Dharmayatra, which ran from August 7 to 10 and included spiritual discourses, devotional gatherings and interactions with devotees and young people. Scenes from the festival Mahesh Liloriya Organised by Shrimad Rajchandra Mission Dharampur (SRMD) UK, the Global Youth Festival offered more than 50 curated experiences, with participants exploring how dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins influence happiness and everyday wellbeing. Rather than presenting wellbeing simply as a concept, the festival invited participants to experience it. Four immersive zones Dopamine District, Oxytocin Oasis, Serotonin Springs and Endorphin Estate featured activities ranging from aerial yoga, chocolate meditation, sound experiences and dance workshops to simulators, creative spaces and interactive challenges. Scenes from the festival Mahesh Liloriya The underlying message was that happiness need not be pursued only through external achievements or momentary stimulation; greater self-awareness, meaningful relationships, physical wellbeing and a sense of purpose can help individuals navigate modern life more positively. The concept particularly resonated with young participants, combining spirituality and self-development with experiences presented in a contemporary and accessible format. Among the major attractions were a Keynote Masterclass, Leaders Panel, EDM Yoga, Aqua Sound Bath, InnerVerse 2.0 and a Coffee Rave. Music also became a bridge between tradition and a new generation. Scenes from the festival Mahesh Liloriya London-based international vocalist Bhavik Haria brought devotional music into the festival environment through his Bollywood & Bhajan Jam. Known for his Keep Bhajans Alive initiative, Harias performance combined the heritage of bhajans with a contemporary presentation, drawing an enthusiastic response and reflecting the festivals wider effort to connect generations. The festival was preceded by two evenings of spiritual programmes with Pujya Gurudevshri on August 7 and 8. Addressing gatherings at Byron Hall, Harrow Leisure Centre, Pujya Gurudevshri shared practical spiritual insights on the mind, self-awareness and purposeful living. His discourses encouraged audiences to look within, challenge limiting beliefs and cultivate greater clarity, compassion and inner peace. His special English session, Rewrite Your Inner Script, also carried forward the central message of the weekend that lasting change begins with understanding and transforming ones inner world. Scenes from the festival Mahesh Liloriya Asian Media Group (AMG), publishers of Eastern Eye and Garavi Gujarat, served as the Official Media Partner of Global Youth Festival London Edition 2026, supporting the initiative through its print and digital platforms. The successful conclusion of the festival marked more than simply the end of a packed weekend. For the thousands who participated, the message was one that extended beyond Harrow Leisure Centre: happiness can be understood, cultivated and shared and spirituality can remain deeply relevant to the way a new generation lives, connects and finds purpose.

Winning 2027 WC Is A Goal; I'd Love To Finish Off My Career With A Trophy: Miller
Cricket World Cup: South Africas veteran middle-order batter David Miller has expressed his deep desire to finish his career by lifting the ICC Mens Cricket World Cup 2027 on home soil, adding that he remains driven to secure the ultimate prize in familiar conditions. The tournament is scheduled to be played in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia from October 4 to November 21, 2027. South Africa are yet to win an ODI World Cup and South Africa reached the semi-finals in 2023, before losing to Australia in the semi-final in Kolkata. Yeah, I am really looking forward to it. For me, its a goal that I want to achieve. I would love to finish off late in my career with a trophy. So, for me, its a goal that I would love to be a part of that World Cup team. Its something that is never guaranteed, and Ill definitely, from now until then, be focused on aiming to make that team and to contribute the best I can. Obviously, it will be very special, being at home in front of our fans and in a place that Ive played for so many years. So, it would be fantastic to be a part of that team, Miller told JioStar. Miller, who scored 166 runs in eight matches for Southern Brave in The Hundred 2026, opened up about his longevity and the art of finishing matches with aplomb. Probably the fact that Ive made a career by batting in the middle order and finishing games; that would be something Im most proud of. Its something that takes a long time to kind of conquer and master. Im still learning all the time, but at least Ive had a long career in that department, and Ive really enjoyed going about chasing innings, especially. Having spent over a decade in the IPL, Miller singled out his title-winning run with Gujarat Titans in 2022 as his best moment of being in the competition. My favourite moment in the IPL... there have been many, but we obviously play to win, so definitely winning the IPL for Gujarat Titans would be that.
