On Sunday, the actress took to her Instagram, and shared a series of pictures of her meeting with Governor of Maharashtra, Jishnu Dev Varma. She also penned a long note in the caption, as she urged her followers to bring home eco-friendly Ganpati idols. She wrote, Honoured Thank you for making me a part of this initiative Honble Governor of Maharashtra Shri Jishnu Dev Varma ji, This Ganesh Chaturthi, lets bring Bappa home without harming nature. Inspired by our Honourable Governors leadership and vision, I urge all Indians to participate in this movement again. Eco-friendly idols arent just a trend, theyre the right way. No POP means less pollution, less damage to our water bodies, and a little more care for the resources weve been blessed with. Because sustainability is not a modern idea. Its the civilisational path, the Indian Way. Respect nature. Protect what sustains us. Celebrate without causing harm. Wishing everyone a very happy Ganesh Chaturthi @sseemasinghh, she added. The actress is married to Rocky Jaiswal, and by the virtue of her marriage, the couple practices both the faiths.

Hina shared that Rocky had also observed a fast during their first Karwa Chauth for her well-being.
Task force push for stability, security and transparency in Maharashtra competitive exams
Digital Desk | Pune, Sep 13 (IANS) In a major move to make Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) and other state competitive examinations more transparent, secure, stable, and candidate-centric, the high-level recruitment examination taskforce constituted by the state government held extensive consultations with students, teachers, parents, and key stakeholders, officials said on Sunday. The deliberation covered vital issues, including exam timetables, question paper quality, leak prevention, vacancy announcements, answer keys, exam centre logistics, grievance redressal, and candidate 'opting-out' policies. The Task Force operates under the chairmanship of V. Radha, Additional Chief Secretary (Services) of General Administration Department. The high-level committee comprises Director General of Police Sadanand Date; IT and AI Secretary of Electronics Virendra Singh; Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Fisheries Secretary N Ramaswami; Nashik Divisional Commissioner Pravin Gedam; Air Marshal Ajit Shankarrao Bhosale (Retired), former member of the UPSC; and Shyamprasad Kargudde from IIT Bombay. The state government formed the Taskforce amid MPSC exam paper leaks and ongoing protests by aspirants demanding the transparency and the resignation of MPSC Chairman Vivek Bhimanwar. MPSC candidates urged the taskforce to publish and strictly adhere to an annual examination calendar, emphasising the need for long-term procedural stability without frequent policy changes. Pre-declaring minimum vacancies for various cadres was also strongly recommended. Task Force Chairperson V. Radha announced that competitive examinations will not be conducted online for the coming year. Instead, they will be held using the Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) sheet pattern, for which standardised operating guidelines are currently being framed. To achieve a zero-leak environment, the committee plans to leverage advanced technology across question creation, printing, transport, and distribution. The Taskforce is evaluating an encrypted 'e-question bank' system where even the item writers remain unaware of which exam their questions will feature in. Students demanded rigorous quality checks to eliminate errors in question papers and answer keys, alongside standardised evaluation metrics and reviewer audits for answer script verification. Stakeholders called for a unified online portal for candidate queries and objections, as well as a single-window system for one-time registration and fee payment across all state exams. Emphasis was placed on ensuring basic amenities at test centers, including clean restrooms, drinking water, and appropriate seating arrangements. Participants advocated for a clear policy on post-selection candidate 'opting-out' to avoid seat wastage when a candidate qualifies for multiple posts, along with timely verification of disability and sports quota certificates. The Taskforce is studying operational models of public service commissions across the countryspecifically analysing systems in Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, and the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC)to adapt proven best practices for Maharashtra. Highlighting the growing operational load on the MPSC, officials stressed the urgent need to bolster the Commission's administrative workforce, technical capabilities, and organisational structure. Our objective is to build a faster, more transparent, and accountable officer selection process for the state, Director General of Police Sadanand Date said. Divisional Commissioner Sheetal Teli-Ugale, District Collector Jitendra Dudi, Additional District Collector Satish Raut, and Resident Deputy Collector Jyoti Kadam were among the senior officials present during the consultation.
HM Shah credits PM Modi's stand for answering terror attack by entering Pak territory
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 13 (IANS) Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for taking a decisive stand and endorsing Operation Sindoor to answer a terrorist attack by entering Pakistans territory. Speaking at the 52nd India Gems and Jewellery Awards ceremony in Mumbai, HM Shah said, Who could have imagined that a terrorist attack would be answered by entering Pakistans territory, and that the country would have a Prime Minister capable of taking such a decisive stand? He said that whether it was the surgical strike, the air strike or Operation Sindoor, PM Modi has pursued a defence policy that makes the enemy think twice and tremble at the very thought of attacking India. The Home Minister said that whether it is the construction of the Ram Janmabhoomi temple, the Kashi Vishwanath Corridor, the rejuvenation of Kedarnath or Mahakal Lok, India has accomplished what, for decades, people did not even have the courage to speak about. Highlighting the transformational economic changes brought about in the country by PM Modi over the past 12 years, HM Shah said that today India is among the top five economies of the world. The Home Minister said that PM Modi has given 140 crore people of the country the confidence and resolve that by August 15, 2047, India will emerge as the number one nation in the world across every sector. He said the changes brought about by PM Modi in the field of infrastructure have given a major boost to the economy. The Home Minister said that driven by PLI schemes and facilities aimed at promoting exports, Indias exports are continuing to surpass their own records. He said that the GDP figures for the first quarter of the current financial year were released recently, and with a growth rate of 7.8 per cent, India has emerged as one of the fastest-growing major economies in the world. He said that this transformation has not been limited to economic activity alone; Prime Minister Modi has worked to bring about change across every sector. Those present on the occasion included Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, Gujarat Deputy Chief Minister Harsh Sanghavi and several other dignitaries. Addressing the awards ceremony, the Home Minister said that it is a matter of great happiness for him that the Gems and Jewellery Awards, which have continuously contributed to enhancing Indias economy, prosperity and global brilliance, are being conferred on so many distinguished achievers. He said that this initiative of the India Diamond Board is a reflection of Indias confidence, skill, prosperity and global aspirations. India will emerge as the global hub for gems and jewellery in the coming years.

UCC In All 21 NDA-Ruled States By 2029: Amit Shahs BIG Announcement On Uniform Civil Code

What started as a dream became a mission: Sukant Kadam turns focus to Asiad after 100-medal mark
Digital Desk | Japan, Sep 13 (IANS) Sukant Kadam reached the milestone he once turned into a personal promise at the Japan Para Badminton International on Sunday, winning two silver medals to complete a career tally of 100, but the World No. 2 SL4 player was already looking beyond the landmark towards the Asian Games. The 31-year-old Indian added the milestone medals in Japan in contrasting fashion. He finished runner-up in the mens singles SL4 after losing 21-8, 21-16 to Frances Lucas Mazur, before joining Pramod Bhagat in the mens doubles SL3-SU5 final, where the Indians went down 21-5, 21-15 to Indonesias Hikmat Ramdani and Fredy Setiawan. For Kadam, though, the significance lay less in the colour of the medals and more in the number attached to them. I made my international debut in 2014 with a dream in my heart. In 2016, I won my first BWF Para Badminton International medal. And today, in 2026, after years of victories, defeats, injuries, doubts, sacrifices, comebacks and countless hours on the court Medal No. 100. What started as a dream slowly became a mission. And #DreamOf100 became a promise I made to myself to keep pushing until I reached this moment, Kadam said. The journey to that promise began far from the international badminton circuit. A cricket injury at the age of 10, followed by multiple surgeries, left Kadam unable to bend his left knee. It was a silver medal at the 2012 London Paralympics by Girisha Nagarajegowda that helped point him towards para-sport and eventually para-badminton. Based in Pune, Kadam trains under Olympian Nikhil Kanitkar and his coaching team at NKBA. Over the years, the journey has been shaped not just by medals but also by the support around him. No athlete reaches a milestone like this alone. A heartfelt thank you to my coaches Nikhil Kanitkar and Mayank Gole for believing in me, standing by me, challenging me and guiding me in the best ways possible. Your belief has been a huge part of this journey. I am deeply grateful to the Sports Authority of India, Government of Maharashtra, Badminton Association of India, Paralympic Committee of India and Olympic Gold Quest for their constant support, encouragement and belief in my journey. To my family, friends, teammates, support staff and everyone who has stood beside me through the highs and lows this medal belongs to you too, he added. Yet the 100th medal has not altered Kadams immediate priorities. With the Asian Games next on the horizon, he sees the Japan campaign as preparation rather than a finish line. The 100th medal is a very special milestone, but for me, it is another step in the journey. My focus now is on the Asian Games. I want to take the confidence from this tournament, continue working hard and give my best for India when it matters most, he concluded
