Intensified Crackdown on Illegal Mining in Bandipora: 167 Vehicles Seized, 33 FIRs Registered in Six Months

BANDIPORA, 24 Sep: In a major crackdown on illicit extraction and trade of natural resources, the District Mineral Office, Bandipora, has significantly intensified its enforcement operations across the district over the past six months. Demonstrating a zero-tolerance policy against environmental and regulatory violations, the department carried out a series of targeted raids between April 1 and September 24, 2026, seizing 167 vehicles and 44 illegal mineral dumps. According to the official Seizure & Enforcement Summary prepared for administrative review, the sustained campaign against the illegal mining ecosystem led to the registration of 33 First Information Reports (FIRs) at various local police stations. The stern action aims to curb unpermitted riverbed extraction, unlawful transportation, and unauthorised storage of construction materials such as sand, boulders, and gravel across vulnerable streams and river catchments in the district. Providing granular details on the ongoing operations, District Mineral Officer (DMO) Bandipora, Dr Ghulam Nabi Pintoo (Geoscientist), highlighted the drive's financial and regulatory impact. He stated that administrative fines and compounding charges amounting to 20,25,544 were realised from violators during these six months. Furthermore, the estimated cost of minerals seized directly from illegal dumping yards stood at 30,45,174. Dr Pintoo further emphasised that through rigorous monitoring, streamlined royalty collection, and aggressive anti-smuggling measures, the department generated a total revenue of 95,40,364 during the current financial year. Our enforcement drive against illegal extraction, illegal transportation, and unauthorised dumping of minerals has yielded significant results, but our work is far from over, said Dr Pintoo. The department has established dedicated surveillance teams working in close coordination with local administration and law enforcement agencies. This enforcement drive will be even more stringently implemented in the coming days, and strict action under the law will be taken against habitual offenders attempting to plunder natural resources. The District Mineral Office confirmed that regular daytime patrols and night-checking checkpoints will be expanded across key transport routes and quarry zones to completely eradicate illegal mining operations in Bandipora.(KNS)

Trump receives Xi Jinping at White House, highlights ruly great friendship and trade progress between US and China

Washington, September 24 : US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump received Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife, First Lady Peng Liyuan, at the White House on Thursday (local time). Adressing the Chinese delegation at the White House, Trump praised the ruly great friendship built between the two leaders while signalling a heavy focus on trade, technology, and advanced computing. Trump highlighted the historical significance of the visit and underscored the momentum generated by ongoing bilateral engagements. President Xi, Madam Peng, and the members of the Chinese delegation, I am delighted to welcome you to the beautiful White House. Such a great honor. In May, we had the great privilege of visiting you in Beijing, where you received our delegation with spectacular and very beautiful hospitality, Trump said during his opening remarks. Now, Melania and I are honored to host you in Washington as President Xi becomes the first-ever Chinese leader to make a second formal state visit to America. From the time of my first election in 2016, President Xi and I have forged a truly great friendship built on mutual respect and the vital interests of our people, he added. Highlighting that the arrival of the Chinese delegation coincides with the 250th anniversary of the founding of the US, Trump revealed that the itinerary includes a visit to historic American founding documents alongside President Xi. As President Xi has already seen, a lot has changed since he was last here. President Xi and Madam Peng arrive at an important moment for America, the 250th anniversary of our founding. Tomorrow, we will visit the National Archives to see some of the greatest treasures of that proud history, including the Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, and the Bill of Rights, Trump stated. Turning to the substantive agenda, Trump pointed to the success of newly established economic mechanisms, specifically citing the Board of Trade created during his previous visit to Beijing in May. He outlined plans to address long-standing economic disputes alongside emerging technological frameworks. Working together, President Xi and I have made tremendous strides on the issues facing our two countries. During my last visit last May, we created the Board of Trade, and through that, it is a brand new mechanism and was something that has been unbelievably successful. Our teams have been working to encourage a more balanced trading relationship, including the new market access for American farmers and ranchers, Trump said. Looking ahead to the formal summit talks, the President framed the agenda around long-term global stability and technological governance During this visit, we will also discuss pressing issues concerning security, technology, and Super Intelligence (SI). The decisions we make in these areas today can promote peace and prosperity for decades and decades to come. If we focus on our common interests, I am confident there is much we can achieve, Trump added. Xi Jinpings state visit to the United States will include a series of engagements with Trump at the White House, including bilateral and expanded bilateral meetings, remarks and a state dinner, according to the White House schedule. Talks with Trump are expected to cover trade, technology, critical minerals, and broader US-China relations. Notably, the current US-China tariff truce, agreed at the Busan summit last October, is due to expire in November, and officials said its future, along with existing chip export licences, would be discussed, though no outcome has been pre-decided. Washington has ruled out trading away its export controls on rare earth flows in exchange for concessions, officials said, while confirming discussions are under way about reducing tariffs on a narrow band of non-strategic goods that could benefit both economies. Artificial intelligence is also expected to be a central topic, building on ideas not yet agreed upon, such as previewing new AI models between the two countries or extending oversight to Chinese open-source systems. US officials declined to detail a firm negotiating position ahead of the leaders meeting. On other contentious fronts, officials said Washington continues to press Beijing over the flow of fentanyl precursor chemicals to cartels in Mexico and that Trump is expected, based on past patterns, to again raise the cases of Americans held in Chinese prisons.

FSSAI proposes draft amendment to ensure only milk-derived products are represented as 'Paneer'

New Delhi [India], September 24 : The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has proposed a draft amendment to restrict the manufacture and sale of analogue products as Paneer, aiming to prevent consumers from being misled about the nature and composition of such products. The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has proposed a draft amendment to the Food Safety and Standards (Prohibition and Restrictions on Sales) Regulations, 2011, to restrict the manufacture and sale of analogue products as Paneer and prevent consumers from being misled about the nature and composition of such products. The proposed Food Safety and Standards (Prohibition and Restrictions on Sales) Amendment Regulations, 2026 seek to insert a new clause under Regulation 2.1.1 of the existing regulations, specifically covering paneer made of constituents not derived from milk. Under the proposed amendment, products already licensed or registered under the Analogue in Dairy Context category would be required to discontinue the use of the term Paneer in their nomenclature, labelling or marketing. The proposed amendment is aimed at ensuring that the nomenclature and presentation of food products accurately reflect their nature and composition, thereby enabling consumers to make informed choices. As the notification is a draft regulation, FSSAI has invited objections and suggestions from stakeholders and members of the public. The draft regulations will be taken into consideration after the expiry of 60 days from the date on which copies of the Official Gazette containing the notification are made available to the public. Objections or suggestions may be addressed to the Chief Executive Officer, Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), FDA Bhawan, Kotla Road, New Delhi 110002, or submitted through the email address specified in the notification. The proposed amendment has been issued by FSSAI with the previous approval of the Central Government under the provisions of the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006.

Top Places to Visit in Dehradun for Nature, Adventure & a Relaxing Getaway

Located in the Doon Valley and surrounded by the Himalayan foothills, Dehradun provides a charming blend of greenery, mild adventure, culture, and peace. It has enough attractions to make a quick getaway worthwhile on its own, yet it is close enough to Mussoorie and other hill destinations for day trips. Travellers with a variety of interests can enjoy the city's forested parks, serene monasteries, cave walks, and natural springs. Especially enjoyable for leisurely getaways and quick weekend trips. Explore the Natural Wonder of Robbers Cave One of the most notable sights in Dehradun is Robber's Cave, also referred to locally as Guchhupani. A stream flows through the natural cave's narrow, rocky passage, making for an exciting experience without requiring a strenuous hike. While taking in the surrounding rock formations, visitors can stroll through portions of the refreshing water. Wearing shoes with good traction is helpful, especially when the rocks are wet. It makes sense to check local conditions before travelling because conditions can change quickly during periods of heavy rain. Relax Beside the Springs at Sahastradhara In other words, housand-fold spring, encircled by hills, caverns, and flowing water, Sahastradhara is a well-liked getaway. The location is well-known for its sulfur-rich springs and tumbling streams. Travellers seeking a more leisurely experience will find the area suitable. You can sit by the water, eat a snack, or just take in the scenery. Admire the Grandeur of Forest Research Institute Travellers who appreciate architecture as much as nature will find the Forest Research Institute to be a great option. Its magnificent colonial-era structure and vast green spaces stand in stark contrast to the city's hustle and bustle. The institute has museums that educate visitors about various facets of forests, wildlife, and natural resources and is connected to forestry research. Spend a Peaceful Morning at Mindrolling Monastery Mindrolling Monastery provides a serene and contemplative environment for a more sedate experience. The complex is a rewarding destination for tourists interested in culture and spirituality because of its Buddhist architecture, gardens, and imposing Great Stupa. Give yourself time to enjoy the tranquil surroundings. Particularly in the vicinity of prayer areas, visitors should dress with dignity and keep quiet. Meet Wildlife at Dehradun Zoo The Dehradun Zoo, formerly known as Malsi Deer Park, is located in the foothills of Shivalik and provides a simple outdoor experience, especially for families. Its location offers the opportunity to take a stroll through a greener area of the city and observe wildlife. Rather than being a place to visit quickly, it is best viewed as a leisurely half-day excursion. While the zoo introduces guests to a variety of animals and birds, the surrounding landscape enhances the experience. Enjoy a Forested Escape at Lachhiwala Another choice for visitors who wish to spend time outside without going too far from Dehradun is Lachhiwala Nature Park. The area is perfect for leisurely walks, picnics, and relaxing in a natural setting because it is surrounded by forested landscapes. It's a great spot to spend a leisurely afternoon with loved ones because of its open areas and shaded pathways. In addition, visitors can enjoy the serene surroundings, inhale the clean forest air, and spend a few leisurely hours away from the bustling city streets. Discover the Spiritual Side of Tapkeshwar Temple The Tapkeshwar Mahadev Temple blends religious significance with the natural environment. Water naturally falls from the rock above the Shiva lingam at the shrine, which is situated inside a cave. The temple has a unique atmosphere because of its unusual location, particularly during the monsoon when the surrounding vegetation is even more vivid. Explore the serene area surrounding the temple and take in the natural rock formations for a short while. Visitors should be mindful of local customs and dress modestly because it is an active place of worship. Take a Day Trip for More Adventure Due to its location, Dehradun is also a good starting point for travelling to places outside of the city. If you have more time, you might want to take trips to nearby forests and hill regions, Rajaji National Park, or Mussoorie. While Mussoorie offers mountain views, walking routes, and a traditional hill-station atmosphere, Rajaji National Park is especially intriguing for people who love wildlife and outdoor experiences. A short vacation can be made more pleasurable by selecting one longer excursion rather than attempting to cover everything. When Is the Best Time to Visit? Although it is possible to visit Dehradun for most of the year, the experience varies depending on the season. Sightseeing and outdoor walks are comfortable during spring and the cooler months. The surrounding green areas offer much-needed respite from the sometimes-hot summer days. Although the monsoon brings fuller streams and lush landscapes, it can also make roads, trails, and cave routes slick. When organising outdoor activities, travellers should be adaptable and consider the weather. Staying Comfortably in Dehradun Finding lodging in a handy area of the city can help you strike a balance between leisure and sightseeing. There are several comfortable hotels in Dehradun that travellers can choose from according to their comfort and needs. Whether the day's activities include seeing sights, sampling regional cuisine, exploring local markets, or just relaxing after a hectic schedule, its features can offer a cosy and useful base between excursions. Additionally, travellers can use the Treebo app to plan their stay and look at hotel options. Selecting lodging that fits the duration and style of the trip, comparing properties, and examining available amenities can all be made simpler. Conclusion Dehradun is most effective when you allow for some spontaneity. It may be more fulfilling to spend a morning at the Forest Research Institute, an afternoon exploring Sahastradhara, and a peaceful evening perusing neighbourhood cafs than to attempt to see every attraction in a single day. Dehradun provides many opportunities to slow down and re-establish a connection with nature, whether your ideal vacation entails exploring a cave, seeing wildlife, going to a monastery, or just relaxing in the trees. The city can be transformed into a revitalising Himalayan foothill getaway with a little preparation and an adaptable schedule.
