Delhi-NCR wakes up to pleasant weather as rain, thunderstorms likely over next three days
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 26 (IANS) Delhi-NCR woke up to pleasant weather and cool winds on Saturday, with light to moderate rainfall expected over the next two to three days. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for Saturday, warning of thunderstorms and gusty winds of up to 30 kmph. The expected rainfall is likely to provide some relief from the recent heat as the national Capital moves into the post-monsoon period. Rainfall is expected on Saturday, Sunday and Monday as a depression over Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh moves towards Uttar Pradesh and interacts with a weak western disturbance. While heavier rainfall is expected in parts of Uttarakhand and north-western Uttar Pradesh, Delhi-NCR, Punjab, Haryana and north Rajasthan are likely to receive lighter showers. Similar weather conditions are expected to prevail on Sunday, while there is also a possibility of light rain on Monday. The change in weather is attributed to a cyclonic circulation in the lower atmosphere over north-western Uttar Pradesh and adjoining areas. The southwest monsoon withdrew from Delhi on September 23, two days ahead of its normal withdrawal date, marking the earliest retreat from the national Capital since 2002. Despite the early withdrawal, weather officials said the prevailing weather systems could continue to bring scattered showers and thunderstorms over the next few days. Cloudy skies and moist easterly winds helped keep temperatures lower in Delhi on Friday. The maximum temperature settled at 33 degrees Celsius, one degree below normal, while the minimum temperature was recorded at 24.2 degrees Celsius. For Saturday, the IMD has forecast a maximum temperature of 32-34 degrees Celsius and a minimum of 22-23 degrees Celsius. Meanwhile, a weather system over Chhattisgarh and Odisha, along with a fresh spell associated with a trough in the upper atmosphere, is expected to bring heavy rainfall across a wide stretch of the country on Saturday, according to the IMD. At the centre of the weather activity is a depression that formed over south Odisha and adjoining south Chhattisgarh. Uttar Pradesh is likely to witness intense rainfall activity over the next two days, the IMD said on Friday, issuing a red alert for several districts. The weather agency warned of heavy to very heavy rainfall at several places and extremely heavy rainfall at isolated locations. The state government has placed district administrations on alert in view of the forecast till September 27. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, taking note of the forecast of heavy rainfall, thunderstorms and the situation arising from flash floods, directed district magistrates of the concerned districts to maintain special vigilance and visit the field to monitor arrangements. Meanwhile, Delhi's air quality remained in the 'satisfactory' category. The AQI recorded at various monitoring stations was 63 at NSUT Jaffarpur, 65 at Punjabi Bagh, 68 at Shadipur, 85 at Sirifort, 67 at Chandni Chowk, 65 at Commonwealth Sports Complex, 56 at JNU, 72 at Alipur, 63 at R K Puram, 77 at Anand Vihar, 84 at Mundka, 68 at Vivek Vihar, 120 at Rohini, 129 at Wazirpur and 91 at Nehru Nagar.

Welfare delivery drives partys electoral success: Nitin Nabin
Digital Desk | Jaipur, Sep 25 (IANS) Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) National President Nitin Nabin on Friday said electoral victories should not be seen merely as a means of gaining power but as opportunities to serve the people. Addressing the Seva Sankalp Sabha at Dadiya village in Jaipur on the 110th birth anniversary of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, Nabin responded to questions surrounding the BJPs repeated electoral victories. Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma, BJP State President Madan Rathore, and several other party leaders and public representatives attended the programme. The event formed part of the BJPs ongoing Seva Sankalp Abhiyan. Nabin paid floral tribute to Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya and recalled his philosophy of Antyodaya, under which development is intended to reach the last person in society. He said BJP workers and elected representatives should treat electoral victories as opportunities to work for the people, not simply as a means to attain political power. He emphasised that representatives in Panchayati Raj institutions and urban local bodies have an important role in taking the philosophy of Antyodaya to the grassroots. He urged party workers to remain continuously connected with the public and work with a spirit of service, particularly for the poor and underprivileged. Referring to the BJPs performance in the recent Rajasthan local body elections, Nabin congratulated party workers. He said the results reflected public support for the development-oriented work of the governments led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma. Nabin also addressed the question raised by Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi about the BJPs repeated electoral victories. He attributed the partys sustained success to its workers' dedication and hard work, and its emphasis on public service. He cited welfare measures such as housing for people experiencing poverty, sanitation facilities and the PM SVANidhi scheme for street vendors, saying public confidence grows when government benefits reach intended beneficiaries. He referred to former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhis earlier observation about leakages in the delivery of government funds. He contrasted it with Prime Minister Narendra Modis emphasis on delivering welfare benefits directly to beneficiaries. Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma said the Rajasthan government was working to fulfil the commitments made in its Sankalp Patra. He claimed that 78 per cent of the commitments had been completed so far, repeating the same figure he has previously cited when discussing his governments performance. Rathore congratulated party workers for the partys performance in the civic body elections and said preparations should now begin for the forthcoming Panchayat elections. He highlighted the contribution of BJP workers and office-bearers to the partys performance in the local body polls. Nabin concluded by reiterating Pandit Deendayal Upadhyayas philosophy that development acquires its true meaning when its benefits reach the last person in society, and called upon BJP workers to carry this message to the grassroots.

Gauahar Khan has reacted to a recent moment involving Aasif Khan on Bigg Boss 19, questioning the actors comments about moustaches and masculinity. The Bigg Boss 7 winner said she found Aasifs remarks and his behaviour on the show disappointing, while also acknowledging his work as an actor. The discussion unfolded during the captaincy task in which contestants were required to put rejected stamps on fellow housemates. Gullu put the rejected stamp on Yung DSAs face and explained that he believed Yung was behaving as though he was running the entire house. He also took issue with Yung styling the moustaches of members of his group in the same manner, suggesting that Yung expected others to follow his preferences. Aasif Khan defends Yung DSA over moustache comment Aasif Khan, who received the majority of the rejected stamps during the task, defended Yung when the discussion turned to the moustache issue. Explaining why the moustache was significant to him, Aasif said, Hum naa Rajasthan se aate hain, yeh mooch humari pehchaan hai, aur muchmundo ko mardon mein consider nahi karte hum. Isliye daadi aisi hai. Aasifs statement prompted a reaction from Gauahar, who questioned linking a mans identity or masculinity to his appearance. She also expressed disappointment that Aasif, whom she described as a good actor, was showing what she considered narrow thinking on the reality show. Gauahar Khan calls out Aasifs small thinking Taking to Instagram, Gauahar shared a note addressing the incident. She wrote, Yaar I have a question , Asif ka career toh acting mein bohat accha chal raha hai naa , he shouldn't have come on the show to showcase such small thinking and really silly behaviour , when that girl was dissing uditi, in the most low manner , he was enjoying like they r all his thoughts . Felt bad seeing that . Such a good actor par Har cheez Mein aisi soch choti lagti hai . Gauahar further referred to Aasifs comment about moustaches and masculinity, writing, Mard ki nishaani mooch hoti hai hhahahah islam mein toh musalman mard ke liye sunnah is no moonch, has he forgotten that ???? Mard ki nishaani uski unchi soch aur behaviour hoti hai ! Wish he knew that ! The exchange comes as tensions continue to play out inside the Bigg Boss 19 house.

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 24 (IANS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday interacted with participants of the Seva Sankalp Yatra travelling from Vadnagar to Varanasi and emphasised that service should remain the primary duty of those in public life. The Seva Yatris are travelling from Vadnagar to Varanasi in 10 groups on a bike yatra, engaging communities through initiatives focused on service, public outreach, youth participation, social welfare, cultural connect and grassroots mobilisation. Yatra is currently underway and will end on October 7, with the teams travelling from Vadnagar to Varanasi and from Varanasi to Vadnagar. During the interaction, participants shared their experiences of connecting with people during the yatra and encouraging them to join the NaMo App. They also spoke about receiving blessings from beneficiaries of government schemes, including the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana. Interacting with the Seva Yatris through video conferencing, PM Modi said that the message of service should be conveyed through actions rather than words. I would say the same to all my colleagues: please take care of yourselves as well. Service should be our primary duty, and while serving, we should convey the message of service. We should not preach about service; we should convey its message through our actions, he said. Through our own conduct, people should see that no matter how powerful we become in politics, or how high a position we attain, our path will always remain the path of service, PM Modi added. PM Modi also shared an old saying about the spiritual merit associated with undertaking a journey and paying respects to those who complete it. There is an old saying that when someone returns from a journey, and you offer them your salutations, half the spiritual merit earned from that journey is transferred to the person who pays their respects. So today, by bowing to all these Seva Yatris, I, too, am stealing half of that merit, he said. PM Modi said Vadnagar and Varanasi were two ancient and historic cities, describing Vadnagar as his birthplace and Varanasi as his karmabhoomi, or the land where he had dedicated his life to service. Kashi holds the blessings of Baba Vishwanath, while Vadnagar is a land blessed by Hatkeshwar Mahadev. You are all spearheading a massive campaign of service connecting these two cities, he said. Recalling his days as a BJP worker, PM Modi said he had participated in and organised several yatras and was aware of the difficulties faced by participants, including challenges posed by weather and changing locations. He said the spirit of service had inspired several initiatives, including the Ayushman Bharat scheme, and stressed that politics and elections were separate from the broader objective of nation-building. Politics is at one place, elections are at one place, but we are here for Rashtra Nirman, he said. PM Modi said the country was working towards the resolution of Viksit Bharat and emphasised the role of young people in achieving the goal by 2047. By 2047, we will have to strengthen the youths role. Today, the younger generation is the maker of Viksit Bharat. They will also be its beneficiaries, he said. PM Modi further said that it feels like wherever you are going, you are building bridges of dialogue and public participation It feels like wherever you are going, you are building bridges of dialogue and public participation. Discussions in several Jan Sabhas, interactions with beneficiaries, tree plantation programmes, programmes related to cleanliness, participation in cultural events, interactions with social media influencers, and efforts to expand the social media network-all these activities carried out in the spirit of service are remembered by people, and people give their blessings. For me, people have always been the greatest source of energy in my life. And today, as you are travelling, you may never have imagined that you would receive blessings from such diverse groups of people, he said. PM Modi further said that when there is a spirit of service, the Jyotigram Yojana is born There is a resolve to uphold the principle of 'Nagrik Devo Bhava', citizens are like God. And in Gujarat, people have truly experienced this. When there is a spirit of service, the Jyotigram Yojana is born. When there is a spirit of service in ones heart, initiatives like the Sujalam Sufalam Yojana bring about a water revolution, he added. Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav and Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma were also present during the interaction. Meanwhile, one of the participants, Hemang, welcomed the Seva Yatris and said the journey was aimed at carrying forward the message of service and inspiring the younger generation. Under the Seva Sankalp Yatra, I warmly welcome all the travellers. From 2001 to 2026, through your public life, you have given the countrys youth a lesson that no matter what the position is, the commitment to serve is the greatest, he said. Hemang said the BJP had organised the yatra, with participants travelling through 159 villages. He added that those travelling from Vadnagar to Varanasi would perform Jalabhishek in Varanasi, while participants travelling from Kashi would perform Jalabhishek in Vadnagar. At every stop, we are doing 25 different works, he said.

Incorporate AI into curriculum: CM Omar
Srinagar, Sept 23: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Wednesday said the government is focusing on improving the education system so that children are better prepared to face the challenges of a rapidly changing world, and emphasised the need to incorporate emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence into the curriculum and equip students with the knowledge and skills required for the future. Addressing the award ceremony of the ALOHA National Level Competition-2026 Kashmir at SKICC here, the Chief Minister also called for taking the ALOHA mental arithmetic programme to government schools in Jammu and Kashmir, stressing the need to provide children across the education system a level playing field and equip them with skills to compete nationally and internationally. The Chief Minister said education and health remain the two foremost responsibilities of the government and stressed that sustained investment in these sectors is essential for the overall development of the region. Education is the foundation of everything. Without education, what can we achieve? Education and health: without these two things, there is no point in getting anything else, he said. Highlighting the challenge of student retention, Omar Abdullah said Jammu and Kashmir performs well at the primary and middle-school levels in comparison with the national scenario, but the retention rate declines significantly as students progress to higher classes. He emphasised that secondary schools need to take concrete steps to bring down the school dropout rate. The Chief Minister stressed that government and private schools should work together rather than view each other as competing systems. He said children studying in both government and private schools are equally the future of Jammu and Kashmir and called for policies that enable private educational institutions to contribute effectively to the education ecosystem. Referring to the legislation on private universities this year, Omar Abdullah said the initiative was aimed at creating opportunities within Jammu and Kashmir so that students do not have to leave the region in search of quality private higher education. The Chief Minister expressed appreciation for the enthusiasm and performance of the participating students and the participation of children from different parts of Jammu and Kashmir, other parts of the country and abroad. He said the participation of students from places such as Kerala, Karnataka and Rajasthan, along with international participants, in the competition in Srinagar was a positive indication of the growing educational and cultural connect with Jammu and Kashmir. You are all winners. Whether you took back a trophy from here or not, just being here and being able to compete is a victory and is a win, he said. Omar Abdullah said the government would explore taking the ALOHA programme forward in government schools to give students wider access to such learning opportunities. This is something that we need to incorporate into the government school system as well, so that we give our children a level playing field, he said, adding that efforts would be made to expand the ALOHA family in Jammu and Kashmir. Advisor to the Chief Minister Nasir Aslam Wani, Director School Education Kashmir Naseer Ahmed Wani, Founder and President ALOHA Loh Mun Sung, Director International ALOHA Kiran Motwani, MD ALOHA J&K Mubashir Wafai, besides teachers, students and parents, were present on the occasion.

The BJP retained control in several Assembly constituencies of its Ministers, securing Chairman and Vice-Chairman posts in multiple urban local bodies.

The BJP also succeeded in electing Mayors in all seven municipal bodies. While the Mayoral election for the Jaipur, Jodhpur and Kota Municipal Corporations is scheduled for September 25.

In the Dudu Assembly constituency, the BJP failed to form boards in either municipality. In the Phagi and Dudu municipalities, both the President and Vice-President posts went to Congress and Congress-supported candidates. Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister Prem Chand Bairwa, however, is also associated with the Sanganer Assembly constituency. In the Jodhpur Lok Sabha constituency, elections were held in the municipalities of Phalodi, Bap, Balesar and Pokaran. The BJP won in Phalodi, Bap and Balesar, while the Congress won in Pokaran. The Jodhpur Municipal Corporation election results are scheduled to be announced on September 25. There are two municipalities in the Srimadhopur Assembly constituency.

Ashok Gehlot questions ECs functioning amid SIR dissent row
Digital Desk | Jaipur, Sep 23 (IANS) Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has questioned the functioning of the Election Commission of India after a report revealed that Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi had formally raised objections to several decisions taken within the poll panel. Gehlot quoted a recent report that the two Election Commissioners recorded objections at least 14 times over the past 10 months, including concerns over voter registration, deletion of names from electoral rolls and the centralisation of access to the voter database. Reacting to the development, Gehlot said the concerns raised by the two Election Commissioners vindicated the questions that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had been raising about the Election Commission. The entire country is aware of what is happening. There were concerns about the functioning of the Election Commission from the very beginning. Rahul Gandhi had repeatedly raised questions about the Election Commission, and now two of the Election Commissioners themselves have raised objections to decisions being taken within the Commission. Gehlot said the issue was not merely about an individual but about the credibility and independence of a constitutional institution. If two members of the Election Commission are putting their objections on record and saying that important decisions were taken without their knowledge or approval, then this is a matter of serious concern. The country deserves to know how such decisions are being taken. Gehlot also questioned the government's decision to change the law governing the appointment of Election Commissioners and exclude the Chief Justice of India from the selection panel. The independence of constitutional institutions is essential for democracy. When questions are being raised from within the Election Commission itself, these concerns cannot simply be ignored. There must be transparency and accountability. He further said that public confidence in the electoral process was at stake. People, especially the younger generation, need to understand what is happening. Elections are the foundation of democracy. If people's confidence in the electoral process is weakened, it affects the credibility of the entire democratic system. Gehlot maintained that the latest developments made it necessary for the functioning of the Election Commission to be examined transparently. This is a much larger question about democracy and the future of the country. The Election Commission must function independently, transparently and in accordance with the Constitution and the law. The Election Commission, however, has rejected the suggestion that its decisions were taken without the participation of the full Commission. In a response issued on Wednesday, the poll panel said differing views and observations were a normal part of institutional deliberations and asserted that decisions taken over the past year, including those relating to electoral-roll revision and SIR, were unanimous decisions of the full Commission.

The appointments are part of a wider organisational reshuffle covering 28 states and eight Union Territories. The new assignments were announced by BJP President Nitin Nabin and take effect immediately. Bhatia will now oversee the party's organisational affairs in Rajasthan, while Patidar and Chahal will assist him as Co-in-charges. The appointments come as the BJP prepares for the next phase of political activity in Rajasthan, including the state's Panchayati Raj elections. The BJP has also been undertaking organisational preparations at the grassroots level ahead of the upcoming polls. Bhatia, a senior BJP leader, has been given responsibility for Rajasthan as part of the latest national organisational reshuffle. His appointment places him at the centre of the BJP's organisational coordination in the state, where the party is currently in government under Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma. Bhatia will be responsible for coordinating with the State BJP leadership and monitoring organisational activities across Rajasthan. The BJP has appointed two Co-in-charges to assist Bhatia in managing the party's organisational affairs in Rajasthan. Rajya Sabha MP Kavita Patidar has been appointed one of the two Co-in-charges. She hails from Madhya Pradesh and is a member of the BJP's national-level political organisation. Patidar will work alongside Bhatia as part of the new Rajasthan organisational team.

Delhi HC notice on PIL challenging 3-year Bar practice for Assistant Public Prosecutor posts
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 23 (IANS) The Delhi High Court on Wednesday issued notice on a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) challenging the mandatory requirement of three years practice at the bar for direct recruitment to the post of Assistant Public Prosecutor (APP) in Delhi. A bench of Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya and Justice Tejas Karia sought responses from the Union government, the Delhi government, and the Directorate of Prosecution on the plea filed by Bhumika Trust through advocate Jayant Singh Raghav. The petition challenges the three-year Bar experience condition prescribed under the Directorate of Prosecution, Government of NCT of Delhi, Assistant Public Prosecutor Recruitment Rules, 2025, notified on January 19, 2026. The petitioner contends that the requirement excludes otherwise qualified law graduates and newly enrolled advocates from even participating in the recruitment process solely because they have not completed three years of practice at the Bar. The petition argues that while professional competence and preparedness are legitimate objectives for recruitment to prosecutorial posts, three years of prior Bar practice cannot necessarily be treated as the only means of achieving those objectives. It contends that less exclusionary mechanisms, including structured induction training, probation, practical attachments and supervised prosecutorial training, could be considered to ensure professional preparedness. The plea states that an eligibility criterion which completely excludes an otherwise professionally qualified class from even participating in a competitive selection process must withstand scrutiny under the constitutional guarantees of equality and equality of opportunity in public employment. According to the plea, the Supreme Court, in its judgment in Ayush Yardi v. State of Madhya Pradesh, held that additional requirements relating to three years practice at the Bar or securing the prescribed marks in the first attempt could not operate against candidates with disabilities and struck down the requirements qua PwD candidates. The petition also refers to the Supreme Court's subsequent judgment in Bhumika Trust v. Union of India, which modified its earlier directions prescribing three years' practice for recruitment to the Civil Judge (Junior Division) cadre. The petitioner has submitted that the Supreme Court's modified framework demonstrates that professional preparedness for legal and judicial public office can also be achieved through structured institutional training and practical exposure, rather than exclusively through a fixed period of prior Bar practice. The petitioner has also cited recruitment practices in other states, referring to recruitment for Assistant District Attorney posts in Haryana and Assistant Prosecution Officer posts in Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan, where three years prior practice at the Bar was not prescribed as an essential eligibility condition. The petition contends that these recruitment models demonstrate the existence of alternative approaches to entry-level prosecutorial recruitment. The plea has also raised concerns regarding candidates with disabilities, particularly in view of the eight vacancies reserved for Persons with Benchmark Disabilities in the ongoing Delhi APP recruitment. It submits that reservation by itself may not ensure substantive equality if an antecedent eligibility condition unjustifiably excludes otherwise qualified candidates from entering the zone of consideration. The petitioner has sought a declaration that the three-year practice requirement for direct recruitment to the post of Assistant Public Prosecutor is unconstitutional and arbitrary. It has also sought interim protection in relation to the ongoing recruitment, including a direction to provisionally permit otherwise educationally qualified candidates to submit applications and participate in the selection process, subject to the final outcome of the PIL.

Education, health top priorities for J&K to compete globally: CM Omar
Srinagar, Sept 23 : Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Wednesday said education and healthcare must remain the top priorities of the Jammu and Kashmir Government to enable children from the Union Territory to compete at national and international levels. Addressing students at the ALOHA National Level Competition (NLC)-2026 at the Sher-i-Kashmir International Convention Centre (SKICC) in Srinagar, the Chief Minister, as per the news agencyKashmir News Observer (KNO), praised the performance of participating children, particularly their ability to solve complex arithmetic problems mentally. Today, these children have really made me feel ashamed. If you had given me a calculator, I would not have been able to find the answers as quickly as they did, Omar said. Recalling his own school days, the Chief Minister said mathematics had been a difficult subject for him and that merely passing it had been a significant achievement. I know how many times I had to study it. What I saw from these children today makes me feel that whatever they choose to do, they will succeed in it. May Allah give them more success, he said. Omar said children today face far greater distractions than previous generations, with multiple television channels, mobile phones and other digital platforms competing for their attention. In our time, we did not have so much competition for the attention of children. We had hardly one channel on television. Today, when you have 30, 40 or 50 channels and then a phone to turn to, keeping a child interested in one thing is very difficult, he said. He credited parents and teachers for helping children reach a level where they could compete successfully at national-level events. The Chief Minister said education and healthcare form the foundation of development, stressing that other investments would have limited value without progress in these two sectors. The biggest responsibility for the government is to pay attention to these two things and how we improve the education system and how we improve the health system. Only then can our children compete not just at the national level but at the international level, he said. Omar also highlighted the need to improve student retention in Jammu and Kashmir, saying the region performs well at the primary and middle-school levels but witnesses a decline in retention as students move to high and higher secondary classes. He said strengthening retention was essential to safeguarding the future of children in J&K. The Chief Minister also called for greater cooperation between government and private schools, saying children should not be viewed differently on the basis of the institution they attend. This is not a competition between a private school and a government school. The children are ours, whether they study in a government school or a private school, and they are the future of Jammu and Kashmir, he said. He said the government is working to simplify procedures for private schools, particularly by reducing hurdles and delays related to permissions and approvals. He said efforts are also underway to simplify processes in school and higher education, adding that the government had passed a bill for private universities to provide students with greater opportunities to pursue higher education within Jammu and Kashmir. The Chief Minister stressed the need to prepare students for emerging fields, including artificial intelligence, by incorporating new developments into the curriculum and syllabus. Referring to the ALOHA competition, Omar said the participation of children from different parts of Jammu and Kashmir, other states and abroad was encouraging. Children from remote areas of Jammu and Kashmir, along with participants from Karnataka, Rajasthan and other parts of the world, have travelled to Kashmir to be part of this competition. It gives us a lot of hope, he said. He said the participation and performance of students demonstrated the potential for stronger collaboration between schools, students and ALOHA in the coming years. Omar also praised the enthusiasm of the participants, saying he had rarely seen the SKICC hall filled with so many young awardees. You are all winners, whether you took back a trophy from here or not. Just being here and being able to compete is a victory, he said, congratulating the students, parents and teachers. The Chief Minister further said the government would examine the possibility of introducing mental arithmetic and similar initiatives in government schools to provide students with a level playing field. Today, what I saw makes me believe that the future of Jammu and Kashmir will be very bright, Omar said.(KNO)
