Abhimanyu Cricket Academy Ground: Karnataka, Vidarbha and Goa registered commanding victories by an innings, while Uttarakhand opened their account with a comprehensive 10-wicket win as the third day of the ongoing third round of the Ranji Trophy 2026 concluded on Wednesday. Karnataka produced a clinical all-round performance to defeat Assam by an innings and 314 runs in their Elite Group B encounter in Guwahati, wrapping up the contest with more than a day to spare. The eight-time champions collected seven points, including a bonus point, to move to the top of the group standings with 16 points. Resuming their first innings at 496/5, Karnataka continued their dominance as they declared at 577/6, establishing a massive lead of 442 runs. Assams batting lineup had little answer to Karnatakas spin attack, with Shreyas Gopal claiming four wickets for 39 runs and Shikhar Shetty returning figures of 3/28 to bowl the hosts out for 128 in 40.2 overs. Earlier, Manvanth Kumars unbeaten century had provided the foundation for Karnatakas imposing first-innings total. Uttarakhand also registered their first victory of the season, defeating Haryana by 10 wickets in their Elite Group D clash at the Abhimanyu Cricket Academy Ground in Dehradun. After posting 305 in their first innings, Uttarakhand bowled Haryana out for 153, with Mayank Mishra picking up six wickets for 57 runs. Haryanas Nishant Sindhu had earlier claimed 5/89 for the visitors. Forced to follow on, Haryana managed 159 in their second innings, with Jagadeesha Suchith taking four wickets for 50 runs. The hosts were left with a target of just nine runs, which they chased down in 1.2 overs without losing a wicket. Dega Nischals 153 off 387 deliveries was the standout contribution in Uttarakhands first innings. Vidarbha completed an innings-and-20-run victory over Madhya Pradesh after producing a dominant bowling performance across both innings. Having dismissed Madhya Pradesh for 209 in their first innings, Vidarbha posted 334/9 before declaring their innings. The visitors struggled once again in their second innings and were dismissed for just 105. Harsh Dubey was the standout performer, taking nine wickets in the first innings, while Dubey and Parth Rekhade claimed five wickets apiece in the second to seal the victory. Goa joined the list of teams registering innings victories after defeating Bihar by an innings and 177 runs. Goa built their commanding position with a first-innings total of 397 before bowling Bihar out for 107. Following on, Bihar failed to put up a stronger fight and were dismissed for 113 in their second innings, handing Goa a comprehensive victory. Meanwhile, Mumbai strengthened their position against Railways, with a 141-run opening partnership between Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Divyaansh Saxena taking their second-innings lead beyond 300 runs. Raghuvanshi scored 79 before falling, while Tushar Deshpande, Suryansh Shedge and Musheer Khan also departed cheaply as Mumbai lost a cluster of wickets during the final half-hour of play. Off-spinner Tanush Kotian had earlier delivered an impressive performance with figures of 7/45 for Mumbai, leaving Railways with a difficult task on the final day. In the encounter between Delhi and Services, the latter held a 202-run lead at the close of play on Day 3. Delhi made an encouraging start with the ball, picking up two wickets in the first five overs, but Mohit Ahlawats impressive 142-run knock helped Services recover and strengthen their position. With only one day remaining, the contest appears to be heading towards a draw, with Delhi facing an uphill task to force a result. Bengal and Maharashtra also witnessed an eventful day, with Mohammed Shamis four-wicket haul helping Bengal dismiss Maharashtra for 218. Bengal, however, lost four wickets in their second innings and reached 76/4 at stumps, holding a slender one-run lead. Play was curtailed due to bad light. In the Gujarat-Kerala fixture, Gujarat enforced the follow-on after dismissing Kerala for 279 in their first innings. Kerala ended the day at 31/1 in their second innings, still facing a considerable deficit. Odisha remained in a difficult position against Jharkhand after the latter declared their first innings at 433/8. Having recovered from an early collapse, Jharkhand built a substantial total and left Odisha with a deficit of 410 runs. Odisha reached 23/0 at stumps and will need a significant effort on the final day to avoid defeat. Hyderabad also face a challenging task against Chhattisgarh, needing another 246 runs to win after being set a target of 259. Hyderabad were 13/2 at stumps, having lost both their opening batters for ducks in the first over. Punjab continued to hold the upper hand against Andhra, who reached 240/2 at the end of the day while chasing Punjabs first-innings total of 529/9 declared. Andhra still trail by 352 runs, with Shaik Rasheed and Karan Shinde leading their efforts to reduce the deficit. Hyderabad also face a challenging task against Chhattisgarh, needing another 246 runs to win after being set a target of 259. Hyderabad were 13/2 at stumps, having lost both their opening batters for ducks in the first over. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

22.84 lakh cases pending in Jharkhand SIR, over half of No Mapping records yet to be verified
Digital Desk | Ranchi, Nov 4 (IANS) With only 26 days to go for the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Jharkhand to be completed, a substantial number of voter records are yet to be verified and updated. Of the 59.53 lakh cases identified under the categories of No Mapping and Logical Discrepancy, only 36.69 lakh have been resolved so far, leaving 22.84 lakh cases pending. They include 7.95 lakh No Mapping cases and 14.88 lakh Logical Discrepancy cases. According to data released by Jharkhand Chief Electoral Officer K. Ravi Kumar, as of November 4, the state recorded 14,04,033 No Mapping cases, of which only 6,08,618 have been disposed of and updated on the ECINet portal, representing 43.35 per cent of the total. As a result, 7,95,415 cases in this category remain unresolved. The performance has been comparatively better in the Logical Discrepancy category. Out of 45,49,961 such cases identified across the state, 30,61,159 cases, or 67.28 per cent, have been resolved. However, 14,88,802 cases are still pending verification and correction. Under the No Mapping category, election authorities verify records of voters whose names, or those of their family members, could not be linked to the 2003 electoral roll. Logical Discrepancy cases involve scrutiny of inconsistencies between old and current voter records, including abnormal age gaps between parents and children or discrepancies in family relationship details. District-wise figures show that West Singhbhum has achieved the highest disposal rate in No Mapping cases at 96.16 per cent, followed by Lohardaga (80.04 per cent), Deoghar (75.25 per cent), Ramgarh (63.19 per cent) and Gumla (61.01 per cent). In contrast, Giridih (19.52 per cent), Sahibganj (21.03 per cent), Palamu (25.25 per cent), Pakur (28.86 per cent), and Ranchi (29.03 per cent) have recorded the lowest progress. In the Logical Discrepancy category, West Singhbhum (99.72 per cent) and Lohardaga (99.08 per cent) lead the state, while Pakur (45.88 per cent), Sahibganj (48.57 per cent), Palamu (49.55 per cent), Ranchi (52.02 per cent) and Garhwa (54.63 per cent) remain among the weaker performers. The state has, however, made significant progress in the Other Category, completing 97.91 per cent of the work. Out of 1.61 crore cases, 1.58 crore have already been processed and updated on ECINet. Lohardaga has achieved 100 per cent completion, while West Singhbhum, Deoghar, Chatra, and Khunti have also recorded near-total completion rates. Chief Electoral Officer K. Ravi Kumar has directed districts with low disposal rates to accelerate the verification process. He has asked district election officials to conduct regular reviews and implement special action plans to ensure the timely completion of pending hearings and verification work before the SIR deadline.

Indias coal production sees 42 pc growth at 22.03 million tonnes in October
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 2 (IANS) The government on Monday said that coal production from captive and commercial mines stood at 22.03 million tonnes (MT) in October, increasing from 15.49 MT in October 2025, which is a 42 per cent annual growth. Coal dispatches reached 21.11 MT last month, increasing from 15.48 MT in October 2025 (36 per cent growth). The coal ministry said that the sector registered robust year-on-year growth, with coal production increasing from 105.33 MT to 117.23 MT at 11.30 per cent and dispatch increasing from 111.95 MT to 124.86 MT at 11.53 per cent compared to the period April to October of the previous year, reflecting sustained momentum in mining operations. In a further boost to the sector, the Lohari coal mine in Jharkhand obtained Mine Opening Permission in October 2026. The mine had been awaiting operationalisation for several years, and its approval reflects the impact of Ministry's Ease of Doing Business reforms. With this, the number of operational captive and commercial coal mines has risen to 87, said the ministry. The rising production from these mines is expected to reduce dependence on imported coal, strengthen supply-chain resilience, conserve valuable foreign exchange, and advance the Governments vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat by enhancing self-sufficiency in a critical raw material for industrial development. These encouraging results underscore improved operational efficiency, enhanced mining productivity, and more effective utilisation of mining capacities across the captive and commercial coal mining sector, said the ministry. Meanwhile, Indias coal imports declined 5.83 per cent year-on-year to 104.57 million tonnes (MT) in August 2026, compared to 111.05 MT in the corresponding month last year, amid efforts to boost domestic production and reduce dependence on overseas supplies. The countrys coal imports fell by 6.48 MT during the month, reflecting improved domestic coal availability and measures to strengthen the supply chain. The ministry will continue to focus on sustaining production growth, addressing supply constraints, improving coal availability through a combination of progressive policy interventions, robust regulatory oversight, and continued stakeholder support and ensuring a reliable contribution towards meeting the nations growing energy and industrial requirements.
