War on drugs: Agencies widen offensive, use technology to wipe out cannabis, opium cultivation
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 9 (IANS) There are multiple agencies which are burning the midnight oil to put an end to the drug menace across India. Operations led by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and the state police have been busting several narcotics modules in a bid to make India free of drugs by 2029, a vision of the Narendra Modi-led government. An official said that the modus operandi of the agencies has shifted from mere arrests and seizures, and there is an equal emphasis on destroying sites that cultivate illicit cannabis and opium. The NCB has been utilising satellite mapping systems, which have helped the agency in pinpointing high-altitude farms producing these narcotics. Following the go-ahead by the Union Home Ministry, the NCB began using satellite mapping to identify such fields as traffickers would attempt to hide these fields deep inside the mountains so that they could avoid tracking. The use of specialised imaging sensors helps in pinpointing these fields from space, the official said. On November 7, the NCB along with the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) and Arunachal Pradesh Police wiped out 458 acres of illicit cannabis cultivation. This follows the first phase of the programme that was held in October, during which 1.37 lakh kilograms of cannabis plants grown mainly on community lands were destroyed. Data would show that with this latest action, the total area of cannabis destroyed across Arunachal Pradesh in 2026 has surged to more than eight times when compared to 2025. Another official said that during various high-level meetings held between the agencies and top officials of the Home Ministry, it was decided to prepare the Vision Document (2026-2029). This mandates identifying cultivation hotspots and carrying out synchronised crop destruction operations. Similar operations have been carried out in Himachal Pradesh, Odisha and other states in recent months. In Himachal Pradesh, the tracking has focused on rugged and hard-to-reach valleys. Coordinated efforts have led to the clearance of 592 acres of concealed illicit cannabis setups. In Odisha, under the states Mission Zero Cannabis Cultivation framework, 30 acres of operational fields that were hidden deep in the Kandhamal district were destroyed by the agencies. Similar operations have been carried out in Jharkhand, Uttarakhand, Jammu and Kashmir, and Bihar. An Intelligence Bureau official said that these operations follow in the footsteps of what the agencies are doing when it comes to the narcotic cartels. While nabbing big and small players alike, the agencies are focusing on wiping out the supply chain. Seizures and arrests are very much necessary, but not enough in the long run. The agencies have realised that recruiting new operatives is no big deal for the narcotic cartels. With new recruits, the drug trade goes on unabated without bottlenecks. Similar is the case when it comes to seizures. Cartels are able to produce in large numbers and make up for the seizures. However, halting the supply chains, blocking routes, and destroying fields that cultivate drugs goes a long way in battling the menace. The single bust driven by satellite tracking in Arunachal Pradesh wiped out 458 acres of high-yielding cannabis plants. This has translated into a direct loss of 137,000 kilograms of produce before it could come into the market. The multiple agencies working to shut down the narcotics market have a huge task on hand. Cartels will look to innovate, and the trick would be to get the better of them and achieve a drug-free India by 2029, an official said.

Every champion has a story behind a medal. For 16-year-old IS Bridney from Car Nicobar, that story is one of determination, family sacrifices, a coach's belief and an institutional support system that refused to let geographical barriers limit her dreams. At the 78th senior, 55th junior and 41st sub-junior nationals track cycling championships, held at Khelgaon, Ranchi, Jharkhand, on November 3, 2026, Bridney achieved a remarkable milestone. Competing in the sub-junior girls' 500m Individual Time Trial, she clocked 37.479 seconds, breaking the previous record of 38.700 seconds, held by Trisha Paul, who has medalled at the Asian Cup and Asian Track Cycling Championships, as per a press release. For a teenager who began her sporting journey without access to a cycling velodrome or competition-standard facilities, the gold-winning effort with a national record represents much more than a medal. It is the culmination of years of hard work and perseverance. I was in good shape during my tr...

Patil, Sisodia, Pandey Return As Karnataka Name Squad For Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy
Sharad Pawar BKC Academy Ground: Batters Rohan Patil, Luvnith Sisodia and Manish Pandey have returned to Karnatakas squad for the first three matches of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2026/27, the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) announced on Friday. Smaran R. will captain the side after returning from New Zealand, where hes with the India A red-ball team. Senior players Mayank Agarwal and Shreyas Gopal, who led Karnataka to victories in their last two Ranji Trophy matches as stand-in captain, have been left out. Both struggled in last seasons Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy -- Mayank scored 135 runs in seven games, while Shreyas made just 25 runs and took five wickets with his leg-spin. Pandey, who was named among the probables, returns to the senior side after two years. Patil and Sisodia make a return to the team after last playing T20 games for them in 2022. The tournament is a big opportunity for Manvanth Kumar L, who had a satisfactory outing in the first leg of the Ranji Trophy hitting two centuries and picking a three-for. A strong show in the shortest format could also put him in contention for an IPL contract after being a part of Delhi Capitals in the 2025 season. Karnatakas batting looks strong on paper, with Karun Nair, Abhinav Manohar and Smaran adding further depth. With so much firepower, the side will hope to do better this season. The bowling, however, is likely to decide how far Karnataka goes in the competition. Pacers Vyshak V, Vidwath Kaverappa and Abhilash Shetty will lead the seam attack. Spinners Shikhar Shetty and Ritesh Bhatkal will share the spin-bowling duties with leg-spinner Pravin Dubey. In Elite Group A, Karnataka will first take on Bengal on November 14, before facing Uttar Pradesh (November 16), Mizoram (November 18) and Jharkhand (November 20) at the Wankhede Stadium. Their remaining group games are against Chandigarh (November 22), Rajasthan (November 24) and Baroda (November 26) at the Sharad Pawar BKC Academy Ground. The bowling, however, is likely to decide how far Karnataka goes in the competition. Pacers Vyshak V, Vidwath Kaverappa and Abhilash Shetty will lead the seam attack.

Ishant Sharma Picked, Nitish Rana Left Out Of Delhis Squad For Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Veteran fast bowler Ishant Sharma has been named in Delhis 16-member squad for the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, while experienced left-handed batter Nitish Rana has been left out, said the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) on Friday. The squad was picked at a meeting of the senior mens selection committee held at the DDCA premises on Friday afternoon. Selectors K. Bhaskar Pillai, Manu Nayar and Praveen Gupta were present, along with head coach Vijay Dahiya, Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) chairman Sarandeep Singh and DDCA secretary Ashok Sharma. Ishants selection is a clear sign that the senior right-arm pacer, who has played more than 100 Tests, is keen to carry on playing domestic white-ball cricket for Delhi. His experience should also be valuable for fellow fast bowlers Mayank Yadav, Harshit Rana, and Simarjeet Singh. IANS understands that Rana might play one game for Delhi in order to see if hes fully fit after undergoing extensive rehab at the BCCI Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru. Rana has been named in the India A squad for the Mens Rising Stars Asia Cup, to be played in the 50-over format from November 19 to 29 in Doha, Qatar. Rana has not played any cricket since a hamstring injury sustained in the third T20I against England, which ruled him out of the series. He was a conditional pick for the T20Is against Afghanistan and the Asian Games, but Rana suffered a left quadriceps strain during a match simulation at the CoE on September 7, which in turn extended his rehab period. Batting all-rounder Ayush Badoni will lead Delhi in the tournament and will open their Elite Group B campaign against Jammu and Kashmir in Indore on November 14. Badoni ended the first phase of the Ranji Trophy as the second-highest run-scorer with 559 runs in four games, coming at an average of 111.8, including hitting 210 not out and 217 against Gujarat and Jharkhand, respectively. The spin options include leg-spinner Suyash Sharma and mystery spinner Digvesh Rathi, while Mayank Rawat and Keshav Dabas are the all-rounders. In the batting department, Badoni will be joined by opener Priyansh Arya, former India U-19 captain Yash Dhull, Himmat Singh, Sarthak Ranjan and Ayush Doseja. Anuj Rawat and Tejasvi are the two wicketkeepers in the side. After the opening game, Delhi will face Punjab on November 16, before taking on Bihar (November 18), Saurashtra (November 20), Haryana (November 22), Tamil Nadu (November 24) and Railways (November 26). Delhi won the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy only once in the 2017/18 season under Pradeep Sangwans leadership. The spin options include leg-spinner Suyash Sharma and mystery spinner Digvesh Rathi, while Mayank Rawat and Keshav Dabas are the all-rounders. In the batting department, Badoni will be joined by opener Priyansh Arya, former India U-19 captain Yash Dhull, Himmat Singh, Sarthak Ranjan and Ayush Doseja.

Nisha Bhagat suicide case: BJP demands probe, seeks action against those named in Facebook Live (Ld)
Digital Desk | Ranchi, Nov 6 (IANS) The death of tribal activist Nisha Bhagat, who allegedly died by suicide after going live on Facebook, has triggered a political row in Jharkhand, with BJP leaders questioning the role of the state government and police administration and demanding an impartial investigation into the incident. The BJP has sought a response from Chief Minister Hemant Soren and demanded immediate action against those whom Bhagat held responsible in her Facebook Live video. Leader of the Opposition in the Jharkhand Assembly, Babulal Marandi, said the young activist, who had been fighting for the rights of the tribal community, had named Chief Minister Hemant Soren, the officer-in-charge of Pithoria police station, and Ajay Tirkey in her live video. The suicide of Nisha Bhagat, who fought for the rights of Adivasis, has shaken everyone to the core. The pain she expressed in her Facebook Live just before taking her life is heart-wrenching. Nisha Bhagat's words were not just her personal agony; they also laid bare the state of affairs in the state. Chief Minister @HemantSorenJMM and his MLA wife, Kalpana Soren, are misleading society by announcing from platforms their commitment to fighting for Adivasi rights. In Nisha Bhagat's statement before her death, the frustration, anguish, and pain with the system clearly reveal that today, not just Adivasi society but the entire state is groaning in agony, Marandi said in a post on X. Marandi alleged that some people were attempting to encroach upon tribal land at the behest of the Chief Minister. He demanded the arrest of those named by Bhagat and an impartial investigation into the entire episode. He also said that the Chief Minister should resign, taking ownership of the situation. BJP state president Aditya Sahu also accused the police and administration of negligence. He said Bhagat had expressed her distress and apprehensions through a Facebook Live session before the incident, which was watched by a large number of people. Despite this, the police allegedly failed to reach the spot in time, Sahu said, adding that timely intervention could have helped rescue her. He described Bhagat as an activist who raised her voice against injustice and alleged oppression. Sahu also called for the identification and investigation of those whose conduct and alleged remarks, as mentioned in the live video, had reportedly hurt her. Union Minister of State for Defence Sanjay Seth expressed grief over the incident and said Bhagat had levelled serious allegations against the state government and people linked to the land trade in her Facebook Live video. Seth said an investigation was necessary to establish the circumstances that led a socially active tribal woman to take such an extreme step. The Union Minister also referred to earlier cases involving tribal women in Jharkhand, including those of Rupa Tirkey, Pushpa Toppo and a Paharia woman, and said questions surrounding justice in these cases remained. He said the state government needed to seriously examine the concerns surrounding women's safety and the law-and-order situation. Nisha Bhagat, a prominent tribal rights activist from Pithoria in Jharkhand's Ranchi district, died on Friday after allegedly attempting to commit suicide during a Facebook Live session. She was admitted to the Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) in a critical condition, where doctors later declared her dead, officials said. Before the incident, Bhagat went live on Facebook in a video that has since gone viral. In the livestream, she appeared visibly distressed and emotional while speaking about her prolonged struggle against alleged land mafias, attempts to defame her, and several issues related to the system and governance. According to information, Bhagat had spoken to the officer-in-charge of Pithoria police station shortly before the incident. During the livestream, she said she had been fighting alone for a long time and felt abandoned by those around her. She also expressed concern about the grief her actions would cause her parents. She further claimed that people associated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), whom she believed would support her, had failed to stand by her. Bhagat voiced anger over being labelled a dalal and alleged that no action had been taken against those who were tarnishing her image.
