Maha CM urges Centre not to shift international flight from Mumbai to Navi Mumbai airport
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Nov 11 (IANS) Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, in a letter to the Union Ministry of Civil Aviation, has requested that not a single international flight be shifted from Mumbai Airport to Navi Mumbai International Airport. He asserted that both airports must operate independently at their full respective capacities. CM's intervention follows a proposal by the Mumbai Airport operator to shift 33% of international operationscomprising approximately 265 flightsto Navi Mumbai Airport starting from the Summer 2027 schedule. The proposed shift was intended to facilitate the complete demolition and rebuilding of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport's (CSMIA) ageing Terminal 1, which currently handles 15 million passengers annually and requires major structural overhauls. CM's office has confirmed that the communication was sent to the Union Civil Aviation Ministry. The Terminal 1 building at Mumbai Airport is old and unsafe. Consequently, the Mumbai Airport Authority plans to redevelop the building in phases. To facilitate the redevelopment work, the authority proposed shifting 33% of international air trafficamounting to 265 flightsto Navi Mumbai Airport. This proposal was presented to both Indian and foreign airlines. Initially, domestic carriers opposed the move, but over time, IndiGo, Air India, and Akasa Air agreed to relocate services to Navi Mumbai Airport. On the other hand, foreign airlines continue to oppose shifting their operations. CM Fadnavis clarified that no flights or international operations will be diverted from Mumbai Airport to Navi Mumbai, and both airports will operate independently according to their respective capacities. The Chief Minister urged the Civil Aviation Ministry via letter not to divert international flights to Navi Mumbai. The operators of Mumbai Airport had proposed moving flights to 14 international destinationsincluding Doha, Dubai, Jeddah, Muscat, and Riyadhto Navi Mumbai Airport starting from the Summer 2027 schedule, a move the Chief Minister opposed. Chief Minister said that under the current plan, Terminal 1which has a capacity of 15 million passengersis proposed to be completely demolished by December 2030 to build a new terminal. However, shutting it down all at once would severely disrupt flight services for the next 3 years or more. As a solution, the Chief Minister has proposed a phased redevelopment. He strongly argued that this phased approach would keep current passenger amenities running smoothly until the new terminal is ready, eliminating any need to reroute flights out of Mumbai. He suggested the completion of the construction of the new Terminal 1B first under phase one, during phase two shift ongoing operations from Terminal 1-A to the newly built Terminal 1-B and during phase three demolish the old Terminal 1-A and complete its redevelopment. By executing the T1 overhaul incrementally, state officials argue that passenger amenities can remain fully functional without compromising safety or forcing airlines to alter their operational bases.

Anushka Sharma, Minnu Mani Named Captains For India A Womens Series Against England A
Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium: Anushka Sharma will captain India A in the T20 and one-day legs of the upcoming all-format home series against England A, while Minnu Mani has been handed the leadership of the multi-day side, said the BCCI on Wednesday. As per the squads selected by the womens selection committee, Minnu will also serve as Anushkas deputy in the white-ball formats, while Tejal Hasabnis has been named vice-captain for the multi-day fixture. The series features three T20s, three one-day matches and a multi-day game. Punes Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium will host the T20s from November 30 to December 5, with the action then moving to Mumbais Wankhede Stadium for the one-dayers and the multi-day contest from December 8 to 19. Off-spinner Shreyanka Patil and pacer Saima Thakor feature in all three squads, while all-rounders Kashvee Gautam (ODI and T20I series) and Amanjot Kaur (only T20s), along with young wicketkeeper-batter G Kamalini, have also been included. Amanjot, who has been included in the India squad for the T20I series against South Africa in December, will get more game time to be ready for her return to international action. Meanwhile, Kashvee recently returned to action via the Senior Womens T20 Trophy after recovering from a right knee injury. Batters Tanisha Singh and Sanika Chalke, along with all-rounder Prema Rawat and pacer Monica Patel, are included in the India A T20 squad. The one-day squad sees wicketkeeper-batter Shipra Giri and left-arm spinner Amisha Bahukandi join in as well. The multi-day side has also undergone a considerable overhaul, with Amisha, Shipra, batters Shubha Satheesh and Purvaja Verlekar, and pacers Henreitta Perera and Happy Kumari as the new faces. The series gives both teams a quick chance at a rematch. When India A toured England in June-July this year, the honours were evenly split between the two white-ball formats. India A won the three-match unofficial one-day series 2-1, while England A took the T20 series by the same margin. India A squad for T20s: Vrinda Dinesh, Tanisha Singh, Sanika Chalke, Anushka Sharma (C), Niki Prasad, G Kamalini (WK), Shipra Giri (WK), Minnu Mani (VC), Amanjot Kaur, Shreyanka Patil, Vaishnavi Sharma, Prema Rawat, Saima Thakor, Monica Patel, Kashvee Gautam India A squad for one-day matches: Vrinda Dinesh, Tanisha Singh, Priya Punia, Anushka Sharma (C), Niki Prasad, G Kamalini (WK), Shipra Giri (WK), Minnu Mani (VC), Tejal Hasabnis, Shreyanka Patil, Amisha Bahukandi, Shabnam Shakil, Saima Thakor, Akshita Bhagat, Kashvee Gautam India A squad for the multi-day match: Shubha Satheesh, Priya Punia, Tanisha Singh, Purvaja Verlekar, Henreitta Perera, Tejal Hasabnis (VC), Shipra Giri (WK), Uma Chetry (WK), Minnu Mani (C), Shreyanka Patil, Saima Thakor, Akshita Bhagat, Amisha Bahukandi, Happy Kumari, Shabnam Shakil Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS
Fadnavis wants phased redevelopment of Mumbai airport's T1
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has proposed a phased redevelopment of Mumbai International Airport's Terminal 1 (T1). The plan aims to keep the existing facility operational until its replacement is ready, preventing flight disruptions. This alternative sequence involves developing a new terminal section before demolishing the old one, addressing structural concerns and increasing passenger capacity from 15 MPPA to 20 MPPA by March 2029.
Man opens fire on father, brother over property dispute in Maha's Thane, injures both seriously
Digital Desk | Thane, Nov 11 (IANS) A man allegedly opened fire on his father and brother following a property dispute in Gurvali village of Kalyan taluka in Maharashtra's Thane district, seriously injuring both, police said. The accused, identified as Kalpesh Shelar, allegedly fired at his father, Balaram Shelar, and brother, Bharat Shelar. According to reports, Balaram sustained a gunshot injury to his stomach, while Bharat was shot in the shoulder. Both were rushed to a private hospital for immediate medical attention and are currently undergoing treatment. Their condition is stated to be serious. Following information about the incident, police took prompt action and arrested Kalpesh Shelar. The Titwala police have registered a case and initiated an investigation to ascertain the circumstances surrounding the firing. The incident has caused a stir in Gurvali village and adjoining areas, with the alleged involvement of a son in an attack on his own father and brother over a property dispute triggering shock among local residents. In a similar incident reported earlier, on October 19, a 25-year-old man was arrested from Gujarat's Bharuch for allegedly murdering his 59-year-old father following a dispute over money to purchase a car in Maharashtra's Palghar district. The accused, identified as Mukesh Parmar, allegedly slit his father Mohanlal Parmar's throat with a grinder during an argument over money. The father and son were living together, while Mohanlal's wife was away at their native village. After committing the murder, Mukesh fled the scene. When relatives failed to contact Mohanlal over the phone, they sent an acquaintance to check on him. The person discovered his body and alerted the Palghar police. Earlier in June, another shocking incident was reported from Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, where a man allegedly stabbed his 82-year-old father to death after losing a property dispute case against him in court. The victim, Jafar Qamaruddin Sayyed Patel, had fought a two-year legal battle to evict his son, Abdul Rehman Abdul Jafar, from his house over alleged abusive behaviour. Jafar Patel, a retired Water Resources Department employee, had reportedly faced repeated quarrels and alleged assaults by his son, who works as a medical representative.

EC refutes poll rigging claims citing official 2024 Haryana, Maharashtra data
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 10 (IANS) The Election Commission of India (ECI) sources have firmly rejected allegations of vote mismatches and possible rigging in the 2024 Haryana Assembly elections, describing claims of large gaps between votes cast and votes counted as based on a basic misreading of official records. Referring to assertions that in seats such as Badkhal, the number of votes polled far exceeded those counted on electronic voting machines (EVMs), ECI sources pointed to the commission's Assembly constituency (AC)-wise voters information for the 2024 Haryana poll. Accordingly, in Badkhal (AC 87), the records list 3,32,253 total electors. Of these, 1,60,553 electors voted, delivering a poll percentage of 48.32. After postal rejections (26), EVM rejected votes (543) and NOTA (1,509), exactly 1,58,475 valid votes were recorded. The figures align completely; the widely circulated 3.32 lakh votes polled figure is simply the total number of voters on the electoral rolls, not the number who voted. In Ellenabad (AC 46), 1,95,868 electors were registered and 1,58,707 voted (poll percentage 81.03). After accounting for 253 rejected postal votes and 545 NOTA votes, 1,57,909 valid votes were declared. In Gurgaon (AC 77), an urban seat with lower turnout, 4,43,593 electors were on the rolls and 2,30,147 voted (51.88 per cent). Valid votes stood at 2,29,029 after standard deductions. In Badshahpur (AC 76), 5,21,969 electors yielded 2,83,131 votes polled (54.24 per cent) and 2,80,482 valid votes. In Kalka (AC 1), 2,02,394 electors produced 1,45,961 votes (72.12 per cent) and 1,45,220 valid votes. The biggest such discrepancy is in Maharashtra's Mumbai North Parliamentary constituency, reports said. According to the ECI's internal records, reports alleged, total votes polled were 18.11 lakh in the constituency, but according to the result declared by the Commission, 10.33 lakh votes were cast in the constituency. This means, a whopping 7.78 lakh votes, 42.8 per cent of the votes polled, were not counted on the EVMs. While ECI sources clarified that claims of a massive mismatch in Mumbai North, stemmed from a basic error. The constituency had 18.12 lakh registered electors on the rolls. Of these, 10.33 lakh actually voted, recording a turnout of about 57 per cent. Valid votes matched the polled figures after routine deductions for NOTA and rejections. The widely cited 18.11 lakh votes polled figure was simply the total number of electors, not the votes cast. No discrepancy exists between votes polled and votes counted. Statewide, Haryana recorded 2,04,63,841 total electors and 1,39,13,879 electors who voted, for an overall turnout of 67.99 per cent. Valid votes totalled 1,38,37,980 after all rejections and NOTA. These numbers are drawn directly from the authenticated returns filed by Returning Officers. ECI sources pointed out that minor differences between electors who voted and final valid votes are routine and legally accounted forvoters who enter the booth but do not vote, invalidated postal ballots, or test votes. Large unexplained gaps of the kind alleged would have triggered statutory investigation under the Conduct of Election Rules. No such gaps exist in the Haryana data. The commission sources reiterated that primary records, including Form 17C, remain the sole authoritative source. Secondary analyses that confuse total electors with actual votes polled create artificial discrepancies. Constituency-level data continues to be available through official ECI channels for verification. Claims of systemic rigging or uncounted votes running into lakhs in the 2024 Haryana polls stand refuted by the commission's own audited figures.

Bihar: Maoist arms dump busted in Lakhisarai
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Nov 10 (IANS) The Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB), in a joint operation with the Bihar Police, busted a naxal arms dump in Lakhisarai on Tuesday. The operation was carried out by troops of the 29 Bn SSB and local police personnel. The arms dump was located at Simratri village. Among the weapons seized was a carbine. Several rounds of ammunition and tactical equipment, including a binocular, were also recovered. The SSB has been part of similar operations in the past as well. On October 7, troops of the same battalion, along with Bihar Police personnel, unearthed a hidden arms and ammunition dump in the DhangaiTeletand forest area of Gaya Ji. The recovered items then included a 9mm carbine, two country-made guns, pistol magazines, a 5-watt radio telephony set, 79 rounds of 9mm ammunition, and 13 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition. While the Maoists were active, cadres would carefully pack weapons, ammunition and other equipment and store them at strategic locations for use at short notice. This was done when the cadres moved out of the forested areas to interact with locals and gather intelligence. Now that the insurgency has been effectively countered, security agencies have to trace such dumps and seize the weapons, an official said. Similar seizures have been made in Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra and Odisha. Even explosive substances have been recovered during some operations. According to officials, while the top leadership has either surrendered or been eliminated or arrested, several lower-rung cadres may have escaped and returned to the mainstream without informing the authorities. Such members of the outfit may know the locations of the arms and use them in future for criminal activities. Such arms dumps may also be located by criminal gangs. The recovery of the weapons is crucial. Surrendered and arrested Naxalites are often urged to reveal their locations. Some of the stores are found during combing operations. Sometimes the dumps are found by locals who enter the forests. While a Naxal Mukt Bharat has been achieved, all weapons will also have to be accounted for, the official said. Similar operations are also carried out in Manipur and other insurgency-affected states. Central Armed Police Forces like the SSB participate in these operations along with the state police.

NCP merger decision rests with Sharad Pawar, Sunetra; neither has told us anything yet: CM Fadnavis
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis stated that only Sharad Pawar and Sunetra Pawar could clarify any merger plans.

Sunil Tatkare invokes Ajit Pawars legacy in NCP's push to reclaim Maharashtra's Finance Portfolio
Digital Desk | Baramati, Nov 10 (IANS) The NCP's Maharashtra unit President and MP, Sunil Tatkare, on Tuesday reiterated his party's claim over the Finance Portfolio which is currently held by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, after the untimely death of Deputy Chief Minister and Finance Minister, Ajit Pawar, in a plane crash at Baramati on January 28 this year. Speaking to reporters after visiting Ajit Pawar's memorial to pay tribute at Baramati, Tatkare said, We must get the Finance Portfolio. Because late Dada (Ajit Pawar) presented record-breaking budgets to this state. It was because of Dada that I got the opportunity to present the budget back in 2010. At that time, I presented the 50th budget. Tatkare's statement comes days after the NCP core committee meeting, chaired by party President and Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar, held on October 25, decided to request Chief Minister Fadnavis to give back the finance department to the party. Thereafter, NCP leaders met CM Fadnavis on the same day and made their demand. After the meeting with CM Fadnavis, senior NCP minister Chhagan Bhujbal told reporters that the Finance portfolio originally belonged to the NCP's quota in the Mahayuti alliance. Following the demise of Ajit Pawar, CM Fadnavis temporarily took charge of the department. A NCP delegation met the Chief Minister to demand that the Finance Ministry be returned to the NCP. The delegation emphasised that the Chief Minister responded positively and expressed hope that the portfolio reallocation would take place before the Winter Session. The delegation emphasised that the NCP was strictly asking for the Finance Portfolio and was not interested in swapping or taking any other department, informed Minister Bhujbal. Subsequently, a group of NCP leaders including party Working President Praful Patel, Tatkare, ministers Bhujbal and Hasan Mushrif and former ministers Dilip Walse Patil and Dhananjay Munde met Union Home Minister Amit Shah on November 1 and pleaded for the return of the finance department to the NCP. With the state's Winter Session scheduled for next month, it will be crucial to see whether the Finance portfolio is handed back to the NCP before then.

NCP merger decision rests with Sharad Pawar, Sunetra, says Fadnavis
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday said only Sharad Pawar and Sunetra Pawar could clarify whether the two Nationalist Congress Party factions would merge, asserting that neither had informed the BJP about any such move. He also said it would be unfair to compare Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar's leadership with that of her late husband Ajit Pawar. Fadnavis was responding to questions about speculation over a merger of the two NCP factions while speaking to reporters at a Diwali gathering hosted by him at his official residence, Varsha, in Mumbai. If they (Sharad Pawar and Sunetra Pawar) decide to merge, they will come and tell us, because the merger cannot happen without us. Neither of them has told us anything yet, he said. The merger buzz gained strength last week after several leaders of the Sunetra Pawar-led NCP, including Praful Patel and Parth Pawar, met NCP (SP) head Sharad Pawar, who was recently hospitalised for a chest infection. Asked to compa

Led by Krantikari Shetkari Sanghatana state president Rajiv Kasbe, the delegation on Monday submitted a memorandum of demands in Ahmedpur, questioning why sugarcane growers in Marathwada and other regions were allegedly denied the Rs 4,200-per-tonne rate paid to farmers in western Maharashtra.
