On SS day -HWO, Sarhad seek AMU campus in Kashmir
Pahalgam, Oct 18:The Himalayan Welfare Organization (HWO), J&K, with the support of Sarhad, Pune, Maharashtra, on Saturday sought the establishment of an Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) campus in Kashmir, adopting a resolution urging the Centre and the Jammu and Kashmir government to consider the proposal. The resolution was adopted at a programme in Pahalgam marking the 209th birth anniversary of Sir Syed Ahmad Khan, the educationist and social reformer whose efforts led to the establishment of AMU. The event brought together AMU alumni, academicians, scholars, writers, intellectuals, social activists, civil society members and community representatives, including both Aligs and non-Aligs. The Pahalgam Resolution appealed to the Government of India, the Ministry of Education, AMU and the J&K government to establish a campus in the Kashmir Division to widen access to higher education and address the aspirations of local youth. Participants said an AMU campus in Kashmir would allow students to pursue higher studies closer to home, ease the financial and geographical burden on families and create greater opportunities for academic excellence, research and innovation. Citing AMUs existing centres in Murshidabad in West Bengal, Malappuram in Kerala and Kishanganj in Bihar, the gathering called for similar educational outreach in Kashmir to benefit students across the region. The resolution urged the concerned authorities to consider the proposal in the larger public interest. It was decided that the resolution would be formally communicated to the relevant authorities and stakeholders for consideration and necessary action. HWO J&K, with Sarhads support, reiterated its commitment to pursuing the initiative through sustained advocacy and institutional engagement. 16 honoured with Himalayan Green Awards The programme also featured the Himalayan Green Awards 2026, organised by HWO J&K, with 16 individuals and institutions recognised for their contributions to education. The awards were dedicated to the memory of DrZamir Ahmad Bhat, a founding member of HWO J&K and an educationist from Hutmurah village in the Lidder Valley who died on January 27, 2026, following a prolonged illness. An alumnus of AMU, Dr Bhat completed his graduation, postgraduate studies and doctorate in West Asian Studies at the university. He remained committed to educational advancement and social welfare in the region. Participants paid tribute to his contributions to education and society and offered prayers for peace to his departed soul. The organisers said dedicating the awards to Dr Bhat was intended to honour his legacy and carry forward his commitment to educational progress. Among those honoured were Sajad from Budgam, Zahoor and Bashir, along with award recipients from Kupwara. The names and individual award categories of all 16 recipients were not available in the information provided. Sir Syeds vision beyond institutional boundaries The participation of both Aligs and non-Aligs reflected the organisers emphasis on Sir Syeds educational mission as one that transcends institutional and social boundaries, HWO said. It said participants recalled his efforts to promote modern education, scientific thinking and social reform, noting the continuing relevance of his vision to the educational and developmental needs of Jammu and Kashmir. The programme concluded with a renewed commitment to promoting educational awareness, recognising contributions to the education sector and expanding opportunities for the younger generation, HWO said. The organisers expressed gratitude to the participating scholars, academicians, award recipients, civil society members and other stakeholders for contributing to the programme.

69-year-old man dies after falling into 10-foot-deep pit at Pune civic work site
Digital Desk | Pune, Oct 18 (IANS) A 69-year-old man died after falling into an 8 to 10-foot-deep pit dug for a drainage line project by the Pune Municipal Corporation in the Yerawada area of Pune in Maharashtra, police said on Sunday. The incident took place around 12.30 p.m. on October 17 near Chitra Chowk vegetable market. The deceased has been identified as Pradeep Pardeshi, a resident of Yerawada. According to police, Pardeshi was walking along the road when an autorickshaw passing nearby allegedly brushed against him, causing him to lose his balance and fall into the excavation pit. Senior Police Inspector Yuvraj Nandre of Laxmi Nagar Police Station told IANS that drainage line work had been underway at the location for the past 15 days. He said barricades had been installed around the excavation site as a precautionary measure. Following the incident, Pardeshi was rushed to Shubhankar Hospital in Yerawada, where he succumbed to his injuries during treatment in the evening. Nandre said the police received information about the incident through a medico-legal case (MLC) intimation on the morning of October 18. Initially, we were informed that a vehicle had skidded and fallen into the pit, resulting in the death of a person. We made some inquiries following the information, he said. The police subsequently contacted the family members of the deceased to ascertain the circumstances surrounding the incident. After some inquiries, the family members told us that they would visit the police station after performing the last rites and lodge a formal complaint, Nandre said. Police said no formal complaint had been registered in the case so far. Further action will be initiated after the family members approach the police station and submit their complaint, Nandre added. The incident has once again brought attention to safety arrangements at road excavation sites during ongoing civic infrastructure projects.

RSS social work is most impactful, a source of inspiration for youth: German politician Rahul Kumar
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 18 (IANS) On the occasion of the centenary year of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), Rahul Kumar, Deputy Head of the city of Frankfurt in Germany and the first person of Indian origin to become an Asian City Parliament member, highly praised the organisations social work in connection with the book Hundred Years Young: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. Asked about his experience with the RSS and which aspects of its work had influenced him the most in the context of the book, the German politician said, The social work of the RSS is the most impactful thing, especially for the youth. Here in Germany, we do not have the RSS; we have the HSS, and it is working here in Europe and in Germany as well. Since I was a child, I have been watching their activities. They organise cultural programmes and take up many projects for the youth. This was very impactful for me and also for my elder brother. Commenting on the book Hundred Years Young: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Rahul Kumar said, This book is perhaps an inspiration for the youth. If they read that a person of Indian origin has become the first Indian Asian City Parliament member in an international city like Frankfurt, it will be an inspiration. My goal was to give this spiritual and inspirational feeling that is in our blood; we have to feel it. In every Indian, in every person of Indian origin, there is the feeling of Bharat Mata, and you have to feel it. And I think then all the challenges that come in the future will not be as difficult as they were earlier. When asked how his personal experiences had helped him understand the RSS better and whether direct dialogue and conversation could help people develop a deeper understanding of the organisation, Rahul Kumar said that to feel the warmth of water, one has to step into the water. Therefore, to know about the RSS or the HSS, one has to connect with people. For me, RSS means Right, Seva and Satsang, he said. On the RSS completing 100 years and its contribution to nation-building, social service, discipline and the development of leadership qualities among the youth, Rahul Kumar said, It has been a long journey, but I think it was not an easy journey for the organisation because they faced many challenges. Completing 100 years while walking on the same path of humanity, service and culture is not easy. So, I feel that completing these 100 years is a big achievement for me, for the RSS and for the entire community as well. On India-Germany relations, Rahul said the ties are very friendly. There are frequent visits of delegations from both sides. I think two months ago the Chief Minister of our state of Hessen was in Maharashtra. He signed state-level agreements. One and a half years ago, I was in India with our state delegation, and we signed several state-level Letters of Intent with Uttarakhand and Haryana. Speaking about Indian culture, Rahul Kumar said they do not live it in the same way as it is lived in India. Festivals like Diwali and Holi mean a lot to us. When we say Diwali and Holi, a smile comes on our face; we can feel the colours and the joy. It is not the same when we talk about some German cultures or German festivals. How will the people living here in Germany or Europe, especially the younger generation, connect with their own country from where our parents came? I think this bridge has been very well built through the HSS, through cultural activities for children, so that they can connect with our values, with where we truly come from. He added, I was nominated as the Deputy Head of the city of Frankfurt just a few weeks ago, so now I have one more role. It is more administrative in natureconnecting people and also solving their problems at the local level. This is something I would like to do because it connects a very large number of people from different communities. So, I think it will be a good opportunity, not only for me but also for all those associated with me, to know more about my culture, my thoughts and my perspectives that I have developed here in Germany, including my projects with India. Rahul Kumar further said, In the last few years, India has had a very good international representation across the world, including in Europe. Everyone knows about our culture and our festivals. But the suggestion I would give, or what I am focusing on for next year, is to connect the youth of the world even more. There are many young people whose parents are from India or who were born in India and later moved to other countries. On how Prime Minister Modis focus on youth empowerment, entrepreneurship and innovation can help India become a developed nation and create new opportunities for the younger generation, Rahul Kumar said, I cannot say how India can become one, because I think India is already among the top countries in the world. Everyone is talking about India, about AI, about the youth, about start-ups and here in Europe and Germany we can see that so many people from abroad are coming to Germany and doing well.
