BJP certain to win upcoming local body elections, Opposition divided: Dilip Ghosh
Digital Desk | Newtown, Oct 24 (IANS) West Bengal Minister, Dilip Ghosh, on Saturday expressed confidence in the BJP's victory in the upcoming local body elections, claiming that the Opposition was divided and lacked public support. He also criticised Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, questioned statements made by Mamata-All India Trinamool Congress leader Kunal Ghosh and commented on protests in Kolkata and drug abuse in Punjab. Speaking to reporters, Dilip Ghosh said, The BJP organisation works throughout the year and begins preparing for the elections well in advance. Now that the election time is approaching, decisions are being made and candidate selection is underway. Meetings are being held continuously, in which national leaders, state leaders, and our district in-charges in Kolkata are all working together to prepare the list of candidates, and the names will be announced as soon as the election dates are announced. Responding to statements made by Kunal Ghosh, an MLA from the Mamata-All India Trinamool Congress, Dilip Ghosh questioned the basis of his remarks and the authority under which he was speaking. On what basis is Kunal Ghosh making these claims, and on behalf of which party? Is he the chief spokesperson of any party? He keeps making statements at will. There is no substance or logic in his statements, and there is no logic in it, he said. Meanwhile, on Friday, Kunal Ghosh had said, Regarding what happened at Chorebagan, it is out of fear of the BJP. In the Chorebagan Puja Committee, the top leadership posts are held by BJP individuals and influential people. That is why they didn't catch them. Instead, they started targeting and arresting our workers who had organised the agitation. Harassment started from the morning, and they are arresting people on baseless, useless grounds. Regarding LoP Rahul Gandhi, the West Bengal Minister said discussions surrounding the Congress leader often focussed on his foreign visits rather than his political role, contributions or the electoral performance of his party. Whenever Rahul Gandhi is discussed, the discussion revolves around why he went abroad, when he went, where he went, and when he will return. Why is there no discussion about his role in politics, his contributions, and his party's electoral results, he said. He further said that some people think they can do whatever they want under the banner of the CJP. Some people think they can do whatever they want under the banner of the CJP. No one has such freedom. There is a legal system in the country and India is a democracy. Everyone has the right to protest for their rights and demands, but this must be done within the framework of the system. The police will cooperate, and the government will cooperate. It is not right to protest anywhere, he added. Reacting to a CJP rally in Kolkata, he said protests could be organised across states but claimed that the Opposition in Kolkata was divided and that such demonstrations would not succeed. They will protest not just in Kolkata, but in every state. The Opposition in Kolkata is divided among themselves. Anyone can do anything they want, but no one will succeed. The people here do not support this kind of anarchy, he told reporters. On the issue of drug abuse in Punjab, Dilip Ghosh questioned the Aam Aadmi Party's ability to tackle the problem. He said voters might have supported the party out of frustration with the Congress and other political parties rather than confidence in its ability to eliminate drug abuse. No one expected the Aam Aadmi Party to eradicate drug abuse. Perhaps people voted for them because they were fed up with the Congress or other parties. How can people who are addicted themselves create a drug-free society, he alleged.

MHA to build 60,000-strong civil defence network in 12 states, UTs; Army to train volunteers
New Delhi, Oct 24: The home ministry will conduct a first-of-its-kind joint training with the Army to build a civil defence network of around 60,000 volunteers in 12 states and Union Territories (UTs) as part of a pilot project, according to an official statement. In the first phase, a three-day specialised training will be given for civil defence master trainers from the participating states and UTs, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said in a statement. The initiative stems from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Independence Day speech, in which he announced the vision of a vibrant civil defence network equipped with modern systems, technologies and contemporary preparedness capabilities to address emerging security challenges. In furtherance of this vision, the Directorate General of Fire Services, Civil Defence and Home Guards, Ministry of Home Affairs, is undertaking a first-of-its-kind pilot initiative to strengthen civil defence preparedness through specialised training of civil defence master trainers by the Indian Army, it said. Six hundred civil defence master trainers -- 50 from each participating state and UT -- will be trained by the second week of November 2026 through a three-day specialised training programme at designated Indian Army training establishments. The participating states/UTs are Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Delhi, Meghalaya, Sikkim, Assam, Uttar Pradesh, Kerala, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, it said. The initiative seeks to enhance civil defence personnel's preparedness to respond effectively to contemporary security threats, hostile situations and emergencies, it said. The personnel will receive training in three broad areas: threat awareness, protection and emergency response, and communication and coordination. Each master trainer will have to train 100 civil defence volunteers in their respective state or UT. The initiative aims to prepare 60,000 civil defence volunteers across the participating states and UTs, significantly expanding its reach and impact, the statement said.

Delhi BJP questions AAP on CM Manns goods on which he was forced to pay customs duty, fine
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 23 (IANS) Delhi BJP President Harsh Malhotra on Friday criticised Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Manns failed bid to evade customs duty while returning to the country after a foreign visit and asked Arvind Kejriwal to share details of the goods for which the former was penalised by the customs. People of the country and Punjab want Arvind Kejriwal to explain why Bhagwant Mann violated customs rules and what taxable goods he was allegedly trying to evade tax on, said Malhotra. The Delhi BJP President said Mann was often in the news for allegedly setting several records by entering Parliament and the Assembly after consuming alcohol, but now he has become the first Chief Minister in the country to be fined Rs 50,000 under the Customs Act, 1962. The Delhi BJP President drew the attention of Aam Aadmi Party Convenor Arvind Kejriwal to reports according to which Mann, while returning from a foreign trip, allegedly attempted to pass through the green channel despite carrying luxury taxable goods, in violation of customs rules. However, alert customs officials stopped him, inspected his baggage, and subsequently imposed a fine of Rs 50,000 on several items, Malhotra said, quoting reports. The Delhi BJP President said that it is beyond comprehension what message Mann wanted to convey to ordinary citizens by allegedly making an unruly attempt to pass through the green channel despite carrying taxable goods. In another development, Delhi BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor hit out at the AAP for attempts to allege a scam in the poor quality of paper in textbooks distributed in government schools. Kapoor said Delhi witnessed a textbook crisis for Classes 6 to 12 throughout the 11 years of AAP governments rule. Moreover, as soon as the Kejriwal government came to power in the Municipal Corporation in 2022, it created a shortage of textbooks there as well. The Delhi BJP spokesperson said that records bear witness to the fact that, during Kejriwals 11-year rule, cases concerning the failure to provide textbooks reached the courts almost every year, and the Education Department was reprimanded on numerous occasions. Kapoor said it was laughable that Delhi AAP convenor Saurabh Bharadwaj, a former minister in a government under whose tenure there was a textbook crisis in almost every academic session, was now raising questions about the poor quality of textbook paper. It appears that Bharadwaj considers himself an expert capable of judging the quality of paper as well, said Kapoor.

Asim Munirs Tukde-Tukde Plan? Why Pakistan Could Go From 4 Provinces To 15
Pakistans political map could be headed for a dramatic shake-up. Reports suggest the countrys four provinces Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan could eventually be reorganised into as many as 12 to 15 provinces, while another proposal discusses empowering around 160 smaller administrative units.The debate comes as Field Marshal Asim Munirs authority has expanded significantly through constitutional changes. Critics are asking whether breaking up powerful provinces could weaken established political strongholds and shift more influence towards Islamabad and Pakistans military establishment.Pakistan has experimented with its political map before. The controversial One Unit Scheme of 1955 merged the western provinces before being abolished in 1970. So could another redrawing of boundaries reshape Pakistans balance of power and why should India be watching closely?

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Singer Mika Singh has said that his brother Daler Mehndi does not want the Uttarakhand controversy to be dragged further following Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhamis apology on behalf of state minister Subodh Uniyal. Speaking exclusively to IANS, Mika said he has brought the Daler Mehndi controversy to a close after CM Dhamis apology. He added that Daler called him on Friday morning and asked him not to let the matter be dragged further. He further said that CM Dhami has invited both brothers to Uttarakhand, and they would soon visit the state to perform. Talking about an artists responsibility towards the audience, Mika raised the question of whether a performer should take the stage when unwell, given their accountability to the people who come to watch them perform. He also held a press conference, where he said, Just this morning, I spoke with my elder brother, dear friend, and someone I hold in high regard, the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Pushkar Singh Dhami. Whenever I visit Dehradun, he meets me with great warmth and is extremely down-to-earth. The way he communicated with Daler Paaji and me was very polite and humble. He offered an apology on behalf of the Minister, and though I told him it wasn't necessary since he made no mistake. Mika added, The problem is that this happened to my brother, who is completely innocent and did nothing wrong. What was I supposed to doif I kept making video statements back-to-back, people would say this is all I do. However, I carefully thought it through and recorded a video at night, and when I called Paaji the next day, he broke down crying because he was emotional. On top of that, I can be quite straightforward and tend to scold him for agreeing to things, but before I could even say anything, he started crying like a child... He further mentioned, I want to express my deepest gratitude to the entire Bollywood industry, the people of Punjab, and all of Daler Paajis fans for the immense support shown after watching the video where he was scolded. It felt very wrong to see Daler Paaji spoken to in that manner, as reprimanding someone publicly nowadayswhether at school or collegesparks widespread controversy. Even during my 23 years of struggle, no one ever scolded me like that, except once in my childhood at a wedding when I ate before the guests arrived, which was my mistake. For the unversed, Daler Mehndis performance at the Siddhpeeth Maa Kunjapuri Tourism and Development Fair in Uttarakhand became a subject of controversy after state minister Subodh Uniyal stopped his show midway. The minister alleged that Mehndi was under the influence of alcohol and lip-syncing during the religious Navratri event. Following the incident, several personalities from the entertainment industry, including Mika Singh, Palash Sen, Kapil Sharma, Ila Arun, Anupam Kher, and Sudesh Lehri, voiced their support for Daler Mehndi.

Punjab BJP slams CM Mann over remark on SIR exercise
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Oct 23 (IANS) Punjab BJP President Kewal Singh Dhillon on Friday criticised Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann over his speech in the Assembly regarding the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Calling Manns speech surprising, Dhillon said, You run the state government, your officers carried out the exercise, and you yourself conducted the SIR. Now you are the one raising questions about it. He said the entire process was carried out by the state governments administrative machinery. From Deputy Commissioners and Sub-Divisional Magistrates (SDMs) to officials at the booth level, all the personnel involved were under the state governments administration. The Centre had no role in the exercise, Dhillon said in a statement. If your officers made mistakes during the SIR, why did your party leaders visit the Election Commission and claim that everything was in order? he asked. He pointed out that while the Chief Minister was alleging irregularities in the SIR in the Assembly, leaders from his own party were telling the Election Commission that everything was fine. He challenged Mann to identify even a single voter in the state whose name had been wrongly deleted from the electoral rolls. Dhillon said if any irregularities had indeed occurred, it would be a serious matter for which the state government itself would be responsible. He described Manns remarks as evidence of what he called an incompetent government, alleging that it had lost its ability to think clearly and make sound decisions. He added that Mann appeared to have lost faith even in his own ministers and officials. Dhillon said when the SIR exercise began in Punjab, Mann had promised that no voter in the state would be allowed to have their name deleted from the electoral rolls. If anyones name had been wrongly removed, the Chief Minister must answer for it, he said. Mann could not evade responsibility by making baseless allegations against the Central Government, he added.

Akali Dal appeals to Punjab Governor to dismiss CM for patronising drug trade
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Oct 23 (IANS) The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Friday appealed to Punjab Governor Gulab Chand Kataria to dismiss Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, besides urging him to grant a Rs two crore compensation to the family of slain anti-drug crusader Parvinder Singh Jhota and a class one job to his widow. A party delegation, led by President Sukhbir Singh Badal, also called for action against all Ministers, legislators and civil and police officials accused of patronising the drug trade and issuing arms licenses to drug offenders. It urged that the ongoing Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into Jhota's murder be expanded to cover the cases of Gulzar Singh of Toor Banjara in Dirba, who named Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema in his dying declaration, and Bikramjit Singh of Hargobindpur Sahib, who was hacked to death for opposing the drug mafia. Briefing the Governor, the SAD President said that these series of corrective steps should be taken to instill confidence in Punjabis at a critical juncture when the state was battling the scourge of drugs. He also stressed that the drug crusader's family was a family of Punjab and even though Jhota's father had not asked for any personal benefit, the state must look after the family. He said Jhota's wife was a teacher and should be given a gazzetted class one job. Asserting that Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann was responsible for the murder of Jhota, Badal cited Jhota's father Bhim Singh's statement to the police in which the latter highlighting how his son had been fallen victim to the politician-police nexus behind the drug trade in Punjab. The SAD Chief said that Bhim Singh had asserted that this nexus was receiving patronage from the top level, including Chief Minister Mann. He added that the anti-drug crusader's father had also gone on record to state that his son had told him that the State Director General of Police Gaurav Yadav was behind the false cases registered against Jhota. The memorandum said that these steps would send a clear message to Punjabis that enough was enough. Punjab and Punjabis have realised that the drug menace and its perpetrators and patrons are the number one enemy of the state and that they must be dealt with most sternly, Badal said.

Pakistan's Lahore ranked world's most polluted city
Lahore, Oct 23: Pakistan's Lahore was ranked the world's most polluted city on Friday, with its air quality reaching hazardous levels and the Air Quality Index (AQI) touching 410, according to an air quality monitoring platform. The AQI is a numerical measure of air pollution, with higher values indicating poorer air quality and greater health risks. Under the scale used by the Swiss monitoring platform IQAir, readings above 300 are classified as hazardous. IQAir's report also said the concentration of PM2.5 pollutants in Lahore was 45.2 times higher than the World Health Organisation's annual guideline value. PM2.5 refers to fine inhalable particles measuring 2.5 micrometres or less in diameter. These particles can penetrate deep into the lungs and enter the bloodstream, potentially causing serious health complications, particularly after prolonged exposure. Smog affects Lahore and other parts of Pakistans Punjab province every year, particularly between October and February, according to the provincial government. In recent years, worsening air pollution has emerged as a major public health and environmental concern in the province.

Satisfying To Win A Game For India As A Young Player: Naman Dhir
Naman Dhir: India all-rounder Naman Dhir said winning a match for the country so early in his international career left him with a deeply proud and satisfying feeling, after his unbeaten 42 off 15 balls helped the side seal a four-wicket win over New Zealand in the opening T20I at the Hagley Oval. Chasing 226, India got home to complete the record chase with two balls to spare, with Dhir hitting the winning boundary. Winning a game for India is obviously a proud feeling, and especially since I am still young and new to the team, so it is very satisfying. Gautam (Gambhir, head coach) sir also talked about it in the dressing room: if you set the tone right from the beginning, it helps you further along. So I guess it is a very good win for all of us, Dhir said in a video posted on BCCI's social media accounts on Friday. He also said he had to adapt to the cooler New Zealand weather and conditions that did not always allow a batter to attack from the first ball. Yes, I guess it's a little colder here than India. But if we talk about batting, I'm hitting the ball very well. I just wanted to continue doing it and I guess T20 games are always a white-ball game situations where the situation was different. You could have hit a six as soon as you went there. It was a little different here. So I was trying to adjust my game accordingly. Dhir revealed that the plan at the business end of the chase was to keep things uncomplicated. Actually, at that time we discussed that if we hit two good shots, just proper cricketing shots, two boundaries, then the game would end right there. And yeah, we got those two crucial fours. There was not really anything to overcomplicate; we just needed to hit two good cricketing shots at that point, nothing else. He also thanked the Indian fans who turned up in large numbers in Christchurch and urged them to keep coming out to the stadium in huge numbers. It's a very good feeling. Indians, wherever you go, you will find us in any part of the world. So there is no bigger blessing than that for us. I would say, come again in the next match. Support us like this so that we can see more of the blue jersey here. Before the game, opener Abhishek Sharma had fired up the team in the huddle with a Punjabi rhyme. In Punjabi we say, if we rhyme well, we're going to do well. So, Bari barsi khatne gaya si, khatke leanda hand. Bari barsi khatne gaya si, khatke leanda hand. Chalo, aaj japa pehla, jeetiye match India-New Zealand, Abhishek had told his teammates. Dhir said not everyone in the team understood the words, but the message landed in his mind. Actually, it was good. He also said some lines in Punjabi. I guess only 3-4 of us would have understood it. But yes, it was very pumping and it was a good speech. He also boosted us in the warm-up.

Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan sparked nostalgia among fans after sharing a warm hug at the recent International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) press conference in Mumbai. The two actors, who were among Bollywoods most widely discussed couples in the early 2000s, exchanged smiles and pleasantries at the event, with videos of their interaction subsequently circulating on social media. The moment unfolded as Kareena stepped down from the stage, where she had been sharing the spotlight with Salman Khan and other attendees. Shahid, who was standing nearby, caught her attention, and the two greeted each other with a hug before briefly exchanging pleasantries. Their cordial interaction quickly caught the attention of fans, many of whom associated the reunion with their popular on-screen pairing in Jab We Met. Both actors made distinct fashion choices for the press conference. Kareena arrived in an all-black ensemble featuring a top and a tailored skirt, while Shahid opted for an all-white silhouette. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bollywood Hungama (@realbollywoodhungama) This is not the first time their friendly interactions at an IIFA event have generated interest online. In early 2025, the actors also exchanged greetings at an IIFA press event in Jaipur. Responding to the attention their interaction received at the time, Shahid had said that it was nice if people felt happy seeing them together, while adding that they often crossed paths in everyday life. Shahid and Kareenas relationship was widely followed during the early 2000s, when they also appeared together in films such as Fida (2004), 36 China Town (2006) and Chup Chup Ke (2006). Their most celebrated collaboration remains Imtiaz Alis Jab We Met (2007), in which they played Aditya and Geet. The film went on to become a popular romantic drama, and their on-screen chemistry continues to be remembered by audiences. The actors later appeared in Milenge Milenge, which was released in 2010, and were also part of the ensemble cast of Udta Punjab (2016), although they did not share screen time in the latter film. Both have since moved on in their personal lives. Shahid is married to Mira Rajput, while Kareena is married to Saif Ali Khan. Their latest interaction at the IIFA press conference offered a glimpse of their cordial equation at an industry event, bringing renewed attention to a pairing that remains familiar to Hindi film audiences. The press conference was held ahead of the upcoming IIFA awards event in Abu Dhabi.

Delhi-NCR battles poor air quality as pollution levels rise ahead of winter
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 23 (IANS) Air pollution continued to be a concern across Delhi-NCR on Friday, with the Air Quality Index (AQI) remaining in the poor category as temperatures gradually decline ahead of winter. The deteriorating air quality has renewed concerns about the health risks associated with prolonged exposure to polluted air. According to data released by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), several monitoring stations across the national capital recorded AQI readings in the poor category. The readings included 215 in Burari, 183 in Jharoda Kalan, 182 in Vasundhara Enclave, 161 in Ghummanhera, 170 in Uttam Nagar, 241 in NIH Narela, 263 at Mandir Marg, 232 in Aya Nagar, 275 in Punjabi Bagh, 269 at CRRI Mathura Road, 289 at Pusa, 274 in Sirifort, 206 at NSIT Dwarka, 249 at Commonwealth Sports Complex, 238 at JNU and 246 at Burari Crossing. Other monitoring stations also reported elevated pollution levels, including Alipur (260), R.K. Puram (281), NSUT Jaffarpur (267), Dwarka Sector 8 (268), Anand Vihar (218), DTU (276), Mundka (266), Najafgarh (255), Jahangirpuri (284), Rohini (281), Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium (261), Patparganj (264), Bawana (269) and Narela (273). The minimum temperature in Delhi-NCR is expected to remain around 19 degrees Celsius, while the maximum is likely to hover around 32 degrees Celsius. Delhi recorded its first poor air quality day of the season on October 21, when the AQI climbed to 245, its highest level in around 100 days. The deterioration followed Dussehra celebrations across the national capital and coincided with reports of stubble burning in neighbouring states, including Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. Crackers were also burst in several parts of Delhi during the festivities, alongside the traditional burning of Ravana effigies. However, no direct link has been established between the celebrations and the subsequent decline in air quality. In response to the worsening pollution, authorities invoked Stage I of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP), intensifying measures to control dust and address local sources of emissions. The restrictions are particularly significant given the potential health impacts of prolonged exposure to polluted air, especially for children and senior citizens. Under GRAP, Stage I measures apply when the AQI falls between 201 and 300, classified as poor. Stage II is implemented at AQI levels of 301-400 (very poor), Stage III at 401-450 (severe) and Stage IV when the AQI exceeds 450 (severe plus). Delhi Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa said the implementation of GRAP this late in the season was unprecedented in recent years. He said the government was pursuing short-term and long-term strategies to combat pollution, with public participation and coordination between the Centre and the Delhi government forming key components of the effort. Sirsa said an 11-point action plan was being implemented, focusing on dust control, promotion of electric vehicles, curbs on vehicular emissions and the identification of local pollution sources. An Integrated Command and Control Centre (ICCC) has also been established to monitor pollution caused by construction activities. In addition, an artificial intelligence-based traffic management system is being used to improve traffic flow and help reduce vehicular emissions.

Amit Shah announces Rs 8,941-crore projects to clean Yamuna by 2029
New Delhi, Oct 22: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday inaugurated 10 projects and laid the foundation stone for 33 others worth Rs 8,941 crore for the rejuvenation of the Yamuna in Delhi, expressing confidence that the river would be cleaned by May 2029. Delhi Lieutenant Governor Taranjit Singh Sandhu and Chief Minister Rekha Gupta were present at the event. Amit Shah said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had directed the Delhi government to prioritise the rivers purification soon after the formation of the BJP government in the national capital. He said the projects included upgrading existing sewage treatment plants (STPs), setting up new plants, rehabilitating sewer lines and connecting households to the sewerage network. He said the Centre and the BJP-led governments in Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh had prepared time-bound plans to clean the Yamuna, with the broader aim of restoring the river from Yamunotri to the Sangam. Amit Shah also said the Delhi government had cleared 2.17 crore metric tonnes of garbage and freed 100 acres of land from waste. Claiming that the garbage mounds at Okhla and Bhalswa had been reduced by 30 to 40 metres and the Ghazipur mound by 10 to 15 metres, he said gardens would come up at these sites in the next two years. Targeting opposition parties, Amit Shah accused them of making excuses over governance and election results, including allegations of vote theft. He said protests could not substitute for work on public issues and urged opposition parties to address peoples grievances. He also alleged that drug trafficking had flourished in Punjab under the state government and said his party would work to end the drug trade there by 2029.
