Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 9 (IANS) Delhi-NCR is likely to experience relatively pleasant weather on Wednesday, with the India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasting a cloudy sky throughout the day. The minimum temperature is expected to remain around 26 degrees Celsius, while the maximum temperature may touch 35 degrees Celsius. According to the weather department, winds in Delhi are likely to blow at around 3.89 kmph, with gusts reaching speeds of up to 8.61 kmph.

Anarchy let loose in Punjab, alleges Congress
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 8 (IANS) The Congress on Tuesday alleged that the Aam Aadmi Party had let loose anarchy in Punjab and had surrendered to the gangsters, while failing to curb the problem of drugs. The party also demanded the resignation of the state Finance Minister Harpal Cheema for having been named by a Dalit in his dying declaration that he was responsible for his death. Addressing the media here, Congress Legislative Party leader in the Punjab assembly, Partap Singh Bajwa, said AAP had already started applying the saam, daam, dhand, bed theory of its leader Manish Sisodia to win elections by hook or by crook. But he asserted that no matter what AAP does, it will never be able to win elections again in Punjab, as it was for the first and last time that it could win in 2022. Bajwa also took a dig at the Yudh Nashya Virudh campaign of AAP saying, when it could not reform its own Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to give up drinking, how can it claim success against drugs. He pointed out that Mann had even gone inside the Punjab Assembly in an inebriated condition and had refused to take the alcohol test. Referring to AAP inducting dreaded gangster Gurpreet Sekhon into the party, he said Sekhon was facing charges in 47 criminal cases, including the infamous Nabha Jailbreak that took place in November 2016 and several murders. Bajwa said he had been convicted and sentenced to 10 years jail term for the jailbreak, but his sentence had only been suspended by the Punjab and Haryana High Court. He said AAP was planning to field him from the Zira Assembly segment, from where it already has a sitting MLA. Bajwa also referred to AAPs links with another dreaded gangster, Jaggu Bhagwanpuria, who, though imprisoned in an Assam jail, was till calling shots in Punjab. He wondered how he was able to make phone calls to people from a jail in a BJP-ruled state. The Congress leader noted that the AAP-criminal nexus is being replayed. He said the gangster culture and drug addiction are the two existential threats Punjab was facing. While on drugs, AAP has failed completely; it has not only surrendered before the gangsters, but is now providing them with a political platform, Bajwa added.

BJP criticises Punjab government over continuing drug menace in state
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Sep 8 (IANS) BJP leader Amit Malviya on Tuesday criticised the Punjab government over the state's continuing drug menace, amid fresh political outrage following the death of a Sangrur man who had publicly raised the issue of easy availability of heroin before state Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema. The incident has once again brought the drug crisis to the centre of the political discourse, with Opposition parties questioning the effectiveness of the Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann-led government's much-publicised anti-drug campaign. Gulzar Singh, a resident of Sangrur district, had allegedly consumed poison after claiming that he faced pressure following his public questioning of Cheema over the prevalence of chitta in his village. His death has triggered a political storm, with the Opposition accusing the government of failing to address the concerns of families affected by drug addiction. Malviya said the incident exposed the grim reality behind the government's claims of waging a successful war against drugs in Punjab. He accused the Mann government of prioritising publicity over tackling the supply and distribution network responsible for pushing narcotics among the youth. The BJP leader's attack comes at a time when the Punjab and Haryana High Court has described drug addiction as a serious challenge for the state. The AAP government, however, has maintained that its 'Yudh Nashean Virudh' campaign has led to major action against drug smugglers and the dismantling of drug networks. The AAP government has also repeatedly accused the Centre of failing to check cross-border smuggling of narcotics and weapons through drones from Pakistan. Gulzar Singh, a resident of Toor Banjara village in the Dirba constituency, reportedly questioned AAP Minister Harpal Singh Cheema during his visit about the unchecked sale of chitta, saying that his own son was battling addiction and had sold off the familys belongings, Malviya wrote on X. He alleged, What followed, was pressure and harassment by local AAP-linked village leaders, who demanded that Gulzar Singh apologise for questioning the minister. He refused. In a video recorded before consuming poison, Gulzar Singh held four people responsible for his plight, including Harpal Cheema and local village leaders. He later died despite treatment. This is deeply disturbing. A government that cannot tolerate questions on the drug menace and intimidates a citizen for raising them, has a serious case to answer. Punjab deserves accountability, not intimidation, claimed Malviya. Meanwhile, the police have registered a case of abetment to suicide and harassment against a sarpanch and two others relating to the death of the Sangrur man. Deputy Inspector General (Patiala Range), Kuldeep Singh Chahal, told the media that the body would be handed over to the family after the postmortem. However, the police have denied allegations of harassment and said they are investigating the matter. Meanwhile, Punjab Polices drive against drugs 'Yudh Nashian Virudh' entered the 554th day with 62 drug smugglers arrested on Monday and recovery of 306 grams heroin and 190 intoxicant pills from their possession. With this, the number of total drug smugglers arrested has reached 77,421 in just 554 days. As part of de-addiction drive, Punjab Police have convinced five people to undergo de-addiction and rehabilitation treatment, the government said.

Savsani replaced Rohit in the One-Day squad, while Baloda has been named as his replacement in the Multi-Day squad. Rohit, who was named in Indias U19 squads for the upcoming fixtures against Australia U19 in Rajkot and Ahmedabad, has been withdrawn from the squad due to age discrepancies.

Raising questions over Chief Justices appointment unwarranted, says Punjab BJP
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Sep 7 (IANS) Punjab BJP President Kewal Singh Dhillon on Monday termed the questions being raised by the Aam Aadmi Party government in the state over the appointment of Justice Ashwani Kumar Mishra as the full-time Chief Justice of the Punjab and Haryana High Court as unwarranted. Dhillon said that the appointment process of the Chief Justice has been carried out in accordance with constitutional provisions and the memorandum of procedure, and that instead of giving the matter a political colour, the facts need to be understood. In a statement, Dhillon said that after the recommendation by the Supreme Court Collegium, the governments of Punjab and Haryana were asked to convey their views on August 10 as per the prescribed procedure. He said that the Haryana government and the Governors of both states had given their consent, while the Punjab government failed to submit its response within the stipulated time. The BJP leader said that as per the rules, if the government concerned does not convey its views within the prescribed period, it is treated as consent. Therefore, questioning the constitutional process of the appointment at this stage is not logical. He alleged that the Punjab governments tendency to keep important government files pending is affecting administrative and constitutional processes. He said that any unnecessary delay in matters concerning the judiciary is not in the interest of the effective functioning of institutions. Dhillon said that respecting the independence of the judiciary and the constitutional process is the responsibility of every government. He said that the Chief Minister of Punjab and other ministers challenging the independence of the judiciary is highly condemnable. Instead of creating a political controversy, the Punjab government should respect the constitutional process and the established rules.
High-powered committee waiting for my retirement, says CJI on hearing over Aravalli conservation
Digital Desk | Jaipur, Sep 7 (IANS) During a court hearing, Chief Justice of India (CJI) Surya Kant said on Monday that the high-powered committee constituted to examine the definition and conservation of the Aravalli range appeared to be seeking time until after his retirement. A three-judge bench led by CJI Surya Kant was hearing the matter when the committee sought time until February 27, 2027, to submit its report. Responding to the request, the CJI said, It appears from the committee's request that they are waiting for my retirement. The Supreme Court rejected the request for six months and directed the committee to submit its report within three months, by November 30, 2026. CJI Surya Kant asked the committee to work day and night to complete the exercise within the stipulated period. The matter will next be heard by the Supreme Court on December 2, 2026. CJI Surya Kant directed the committee to follow a comprehensive consultation process before arriving at its final conclusions. The committee has been asked to consider the views of all stakeholders affected by decisions concerning the Aravalli region, including tribal communities in Rajasthan and Gujarat. The court also permitted the committee to submit an interim report, so that proceedings do not have to wait until the completion of the entire consultation process. The dispute over the definition of the Aravallis intensified following a Supreme Court order dated November 20, 2025, which permitted mining on hills below 100 metres. The decision triggered widespread concern over the potential impact of the 100-metre criterion on the protection of the Aravalli range. On November 29, 2025, the Supreme Court stayed its own order. It subsequently directed the formation of an expert committee to examine the issue and sought responses from the Centre and the four states associated with the Aravalli range -- Rajasthan, Gujarat, Delhi and Haryana. During Monday's hearing, the bench said that the proceedings were not adversarial litigation, stressing that the primary objective was the conservation of the Aravalli range. The Bench also referred to issues highlighted in its December 29, 2025, suo motu order, saying that there could be a need for an independent expert body to re-examine the scientific, environmental, geological and legal aspects related to the definition of the Aravallis. The committee's report is expected to play a key role in determining how the Aravalli range is defined and protected going forward.
One Chair Empty: Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann Absent As High Court Chief Justice Takes Oath

New Delhi, Sep 7 (IANS) The Delhi Police has constituted 10 separate teams to apprehend building owner Hariram Bansal in connection with the fatal collapse of the multi-storey building in Satya Niketan, as efforts to trace and arrest him have been intensified after a look-out notice was issued against him. The teams include personnel from the local district police and Special Staff, along with officers drawn from various operational departments of the district. Multiple teams have been formed to widen the search and ensure coordinated efforts to locate the absconding building owner. All 10 teams are being led by officers of the Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police (Additional DCP) rank, with senior officers supervising the ongoing operation and coordinating searches across different locations. According to police, raids are currently being conducted at multiple locations in Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh as part of the efforts to trace Hariram and take him into custody. Police registered an FIR against Bansal and others in connection with the building collapse on Sunday. According to police, the structure was being used as a paying guest (PG) accommodation, and renovation work was allegedly underway in the basement when the building suddenly collapsed.

Building collapses in south Delhi's Satya Niketan; 1 dead, 2 critical, several trapped
New Delhi, Sep 6: A five-storey building housing a boys' PG collapsed in south Delhi's Satya Niketan area on Sunday afternoon, leaving one dead and several people trapped, officials said. The area is close to the heart of Delhi University's South Campus and has congested lanes lined with student hostels and eateries. Locals claimed the building was nearly 20 years old and construction work in the basement was on when the incident occurred at around 1.30 pm. Of the four patients the hospital received, two remain critical, and one was brought dead. One rescuer who was brought in has been discharged, AIIMS sources said. Local police staff, fire brigade, CAT Ambulance and other emergency services are present at the spot. The NDRF team has also reached, and rescue and relief operations are underway, a police officer said. A PCR call was received at South Campus police station at 1.34 pm regarding the collapse of a building near Nanakpura Gurdwara, the police said in a statement. The exact number of persons trapped/injured is not known at present. Some people have been rescued so far. Further details will be shared as and when confirmed, read the statement. Police said they have identified the building's owner and have formed teams to trace him. According to officials, the collapsed building was known as 'Hostel Daze.' Witnesses at the scene estimate that more than 20 people may be trapped under the rubble, but this figure has not been officially confirmed. The hostel was always full. So many people could still be trapped under the debris. The lanes are very congested, so it was difficult for rescue vehicles to arrive at the scene faster, a local said. Locals and eyewitnesses said they immediately joined the rescue efforts, using their hands and available tools to remove debris in their search for those trapped underneath. An eyewitness commented that the incident could have been much worse had it occurred on a working day since many students from nearby areas had returned home. Very few were here, he said. Rajen Chhetri, a local who works with the Delhi Police, said the building housed around 15 rooms, with two to three students sharing each room. Most of the students staying here are from Keralam, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh and study mainly at Motilal Nehru College, Atma Ram Sanatan Dharm College and Sri Venkateswara College. They were paying around Rs 12,000 per bed, Chhetri said. I have been living here for the last 20 years. Some construction work was going on in the basement, where water had started accumulating. The foundation was also extremely weak, he said, adding that around 13 people had been rescued. Delhi has witnessed incessant rains since Friday. Priyanka, a local living in the area for the past 20-22 years, said, Buildings here are being constructed up to five-six floors. Many houses have been converted into boys' PGs, with the owners shifting elsewhere. They simply name the properties as PGs, take the rent online and leave the area without even checking back. The PG that collapsed is over 20 years old, and in all these years, I have not seen any maintenance work being carried out. The whole of Satya Niketan is full of PGs. Hardly 30 per cent of the house owners actually live here, she said. Even the gutters and sewers here are open. There were many students trapped inside the building. Since it was raining, most of them were in their rooms, while some had gone home as it was the weekend, Priyanka said. Police are advising locals and onlookers to stay away from the site, as bystanders are complicating rescue efforts. Both police and paramilitary personnel have been deployed to ensure ambulances move freely. BJP MLA Anil Sharma reached the spot and informed that people are still trapped. We are even getting calls from those who are trapped inside. Teams are continuously in touch with those who are trapped, he said.
