J&Ks mutton paradox: 43 lakh sheep, but not enough meat
Jammu and Kashmirs livestock population figures are substantial, with more than 43 lakh sheep and another 22.5 lakh goats. Yet, the Union Territory continues to produce significantly less mutton than it consumes, leaving a large gap that is filled by supplies from outside. The issue has gained renewed significance following frequent disruptions in the movement of livestock into J&K, including the latest disruption in supplies from Punjab. The episodes have exposed the Union Territorys continued dependence on animals brought from other states to bridge the gap between local production and consumption. Official figures show that J&K produces around 370 lakh kilograms of mutton annually against an estimated demand of 545 lakh kilograms. This leaves a shortfall of nearly 175 lakh kilograms a year. The gap is equivalent to roughly 910 lakh sheep, depending on the average meat yield per animal. The disparity, experts say, cannot be explained simply by the number of sheep in the region. The productivity of the flockincluding breed characteristics, growth rates, nutrition, disease control and management practicesis equally important. Unlike some major commercial meat-producing regions, J&Ks sheep population consists largely of indigenous and traditional breeds valued for their adaptability to the regions difficult terrain and climatic conditions. However, these breeds generally have lower growth rates and carcass yields than specialised meat-producing breeds developed through systematic genetic selection. Across major sheep-producing regions, breeding programmes have been used to improve traits such as growth rate, reproductive performance and meat yield. In J&K, improving the genetic potential of local flocks could therefore play an important role in increasing meat production without relying solely on an expansion in animal numbers. Genetics, however, is only one part of the problem. Sheep productivity is also closely linked to nutrition, access to quality fodder and grazing resources, disease prevention, veterinary care and scientific flock management. Deficiencies in any of these areas can affect growth, lamb survival, reproductive performance and ultimately the quantity of meat produced. The sector is also facing pressure from the shrinking availability of traditional grazing areas. Expansion of settlements and infrastructure, changes in land use and increasing input costs have made livestock rearing more difficult and, in some cases, less attractive for farmers. Experts say that addressing J&Ks mutton deficit will therefore require strengthening the entire production chain rather than focusing on livestock numbers alone. The government has begun moving in that direction by placing greater emphasis on improving the genetic potential of the local sheep population. The Sheep Husbandry Department plans to introduce advanced breeding technologies, including Embryo Transfer Technology (ETT) and Multiple Ovulation and Embryo Transfer (MOET). The proposed interventions include embryo-generation laboratories, cryopreservation facilities and embryo-transfer laboratories across districts, alongside specialised training for veterinarians and para-veterinary staff. Such interventions could accelerate the dissemination of superior genetic traits within the local flock, but livestock scientists caution that genetic improvement is a long-term process and cannot immediately close the demand-supply gap. For J&K, the challenge is consequently much broader than dealing with periodic disruptions in livestock supplies from outside. A sustained increase in local mutton production will require simultaneous improvements in breeding, nutrition, animal health, grazing resources, scientific flock management, farmer support and market infrastructure.

Guru Randhawa donates Rs 7 lakhs to build 35 flood-proof homes in Assam
Punjabi singer and songwriter Guru Randhawa has expanded his humanitarian efforts to support families severely affected by the Assam floods. The singer has partnered with the Sikh Aid Foundation to contribute Rs 7 lakhs towards the construction of 35 permanent, flood-proof homes for affected families in Sivasagar, Jorhat and Nepali Khuti regions of Upper Assam. With the initiative, Randhawa has joined a growing group of public figures who have extended support to relief and rehabilitation efforts in Assam. Bollywood stars Salman Khan and Randeep Hooda, along with digital creators Fukra Insaan and Triggered Insaan, are also among those who have contributed to efforts aimed at assisting communities in some of the worst-hit areas. This is not Randhawas first contribution to the Assam flood relief campaign. Earlier, the singer donated Rs 5 lakhs to the Hello Life Foundation. The contribution was facilitated by digital creator Dimpu Baruah and was used to provide immediate assistance, including food, clothing, medical supplies and other basic necessities to displaced families. His latest contribution, however, goes beyond immediate relief. By supporting the construction of elevated and climate-resilient homes, Randhawa is helping affected families move towards long-term safety and stability. The permanent housing initiative is aimed at providing stronger protection against the recurring threat of floods. View this post on Instagram A post shared by SIKH AID (@sikh_aid) Randhawa has previously demonstrated his commitment to disaster relief and humanitarian causes. During the devastating floods in Punjab, he established specialized relief camps in Dera Baba Nanak and Dharowali. His team also personally funded the reconstruction of damaged homes, supplied essential cattle feed and distributed premium wheat seeds to flood-affected farmers, helping them rebuild their agricultural livelihoods. His philanthropic efforts also extend to the COVID-19 pandemic. At a time when the country was facing an unprecedented healthcare crisis, Randhawa was among the early public figures to contribute, donating Rs 20 lakhs from his personal savings to the PM-CARES Fund to support critical healthcare infrastructure. Through his latest Assam initiative, Guru Randhawa continues to combine immediate humanitarian assistance with long-term rehabilitation efforts.

Sharing his reaction to the edits and comments surrounding the song, he wrote, Guilty as charged of making songs that repeat in your head forever. Low-key loving the edits though. No bad vibes! It's just a silly little slang calm down calm down calm down fam. While the singer directly addressed the criticism online, he did not appear to mention the controversy during his visit to the Golden Temple in Amritsar. Guru spent some time at the holy site seeking blessings and later shared a picture from his visit on Instagram. Alongside the photograph, the singer posted a message in Punjabi about the strength that comes from Wahegurus blessings. In English, the note read, Whom Waheguru blesses, no storm can ever shake. When Baba Nanak holds someone's hand, they only keep moving forward. His message reflected the idea that challenges cannot overpower someone who has divine support and that faith can help a person continue moving ahead despite obstacles. Fine Shyt features vocals by Guru Randhawa and Yashvi Desai. The music video stars Guru alongside Ruhee Dosani, Divinity Bisht, Arshia Sinha, Raema Grover, Darlene Laura and Mehar Kaur. The video opens with a disclaimer stating that everyone appearing in it is above 18 and that the storyline is entirely fictional. It also features a humorous warning asking viewers not to imitate the dance moves at their workplace, joking that doing so could potentially result in trouble with HR. With his latest response, Guru has made it clear that he is not taking the social media backlash too seriously and views the songs controversial phrase as nothing more than slang.

Sonali Kulkarni is looking back at Dil Chahta Hai as the cult classic completes 25 years on August 10. The actress, who played Pooja in Farhan Akhtars directorial debut, marked the silver jubilee by sharing glimpses of the films original bound script on social media and reflecting on the impact the film has had on her career. Speaking about the enduring relevance of Dil Chahta Hai, Sonali said, Dil Chahta Hai still feels as fresh and relevant as ever. It's an iconic film that has stood the test of time and will continue to do so. For me, it is a milestone in my life and career. My track in the film, especially Woh Ladki Hai Kahaan, continues to receive so much love even today. It's heartwarming to see audiences revisit the film generation after generation. Im going to be ever grateful to Farhan and Ritesh Sidhwani for giving me DCH - I feel proud to be a part of Excel Entertainments first-ever project. Looking back at the atmosphere on the sets, the actress said that the team was unaware that they were working on a film that would eventually become a reference point for generations of viewers. The atmosphere was so youthful, energetic and full of humour. We were simply a group of passionate people trying to make something beautiful. Nobody dreamt that we were making a film that would become a milestone for generations, she shared. Sonali also recalled the unusual circumstances through which she landed the role of Pooja. According to the actress, her photographs accidentally came to the attention of Zoya Akhtar, who was the casting director and chief AD on the project at the time. Recalling the story, Sonali shared, It's almost a filmy story. My photographs accidentally fell out of someone's file, and Zoya happened to notice them. She had already seen my work in films like Daayra, Mukta and Dr. Ambedkar and called me to audition for Pooja. The audition itself was filled with laughter and improvisation. I instantly fell in love with the warmth of the team and knew I wanted to be a part of this world. For Sonali, the film also offered an introduction to a world that was very different from her upbringing in Pune. She credited Zoya Akhtar for helping her navigate the fashion and contemporary aesthetic. I come from a simple family, and Pune wasn't the bustling city it is today. I wasn't exposed to the world of fashion, luxury or the lifestyle that surrounded Dil Chahta Hai. Zoya became the person who gently introduced me to that world. What I admire most about her is that despite her incredible sense of style and creative vision, she has always remained grounded. She truly loves cinema, and that authenticity reflects in everything she creates. I will always be grateful to her for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to be part of a film that has become a cultural landmark in Indian cinema, she revealed. One of the memorable portions of Sonalis role in Dil Chahta Hai was the song Woh Ladki Hai Kahaan, in which she was paired with Saif Ali Khan. Recalling the preparation for the song, the actress revealed that she had very little time for rehearsals because of her theatre commitments. Sonali went on to add, I was told I could rehearse only for a few hours because I had to leave for my theatre performance. But after barely 10 or 15 minutes, they told me, 'You're ready, we'll see you on set.' I was terrified because I thought I needed more practice, but they assured me everything was perfect. The shoot itself became another memorable experience for Sonali, particularly because of the laughter shared by the cast. Recalling Saif Ali Khans reaction to her look in the song, she mentioned, When I appeared in that body-hugging Punjabi suit and bouffant hairstyle, Saif couldn't stop laughing. He joked that he felt like he was dancing with his mother (Sharmila Tagore) because of the hairstyle. Every sequence- from recreating classic Bollywood eras to the tiny comic expressionswas filled with laughter. Even today, it feels like we shot the song only yesterday. Sonali also spoke about her experience of working with Saif and their chemistry on screen. Working with Saif was so easy. We clicked from our very first scene together, and his comic timing is extraordinary. Many scenes had to be retaken because I simply couldn't stop laughing. I had fallen in love with Saif as an actor in Dil Chahta Hai, and that admiration only grew over the years as we saw his comic timing and his sharp sense of humour. Saif has such a unique, friendly vibe. Working with each other felt effortless, she stated. The actress also remembered working with Farhan Akhtar, who made his directorial debut with Dil Chahta Hai. According to Sonali, his preparation and clarity were evident despite it being his first film as a director. Farhan may have been making his directorial debut, but he was remarkably composed and well prepared. We had a bound script, everything was structured and he knew exactly what he wanted. It truly felt like a group of talented youngsters creating something special, she mentioned. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sonali Kulkarni (@sonalikul) Among her memories from the shoot was a birthday celebration organised by the cast and crew. Sonali recalled that Zoya Akhtar announced her birthday over a megaphone, following which the cast and crew, including Aamir Khan and Preity Zinta, celebrated with her. Aamir Khan and his then-wife Reena also gifted her signed books, making the occasion particularly memorable for the actress. As Dil Chahta Hai completes 25 years, Sonali believes its writing remains the key reason behind its continued connection with audiences. She said, What makes the film timeless is its writing. At its heart, it's a beautiful story about friendship and that phase of life when people are stepping into adulthood and making important choices. Those emotions belong to everyone. That's why even today, audiences continue to connect with it as if it were their own story, she concluded.
