While considering concerns about students studying outside the state for better coaching, the court ultimately upheld the rule, citing a previous judgment supporting similar domicile criteria.

IMD forecasts wetter and cooler September, delayed monsoon withdrawal likely

NEW DELHI: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast a wetter and cooler September in its latest monthly weather outlook. Additionally, there is a higher likelihood of a delayed withdrawal of the monsoon, which may extend into October. Typically, the monsoon begins to withdraw in the first week of September and concludes by 30th September. However, the IMD has observed a shifting trend over the past four decades, indicating increased rainfall during September and a tendency for later withdrawal. This year, a robust monsoon is expected to further delay the withdrawal process. Given the favourable monsoon conditions, we anticipate that the withdrawal will begin after 17th September and potentially extend into October, stated Dr Mrutyunjay Mohapatra, Director General of Meteorology, IMD. The IMD predicts that rainfall across India in September will be above normal, exceeding 109% of the Long Period Average (LPA). The LPA for September rainfall, based on data from 19712020, stands at approximately 167.9 mm. However, certain regions, including parts of Northeast and East India, many areas in the extreme South Peninsular region, and some northernmost areas, are expected to receive below-normal rainfall. Additionally, the monthly average maximum temperatures are projected to remain normal to below normal in many regions, except for east-central, eastern, and northeastern India, as well as parts of northwest India and the western coastal belt. Conversely, the monthly average minimum temperatures are expected to be normal to above normal across most parts of the country. Between June and August 2025, India recorded 6.1% above-normal rainfall, receiving 743 mm compared to the normal of 700.1 mm. Apart from the East and Northeast, most of the country experienced above-normal rainfall during these three months. Specifically, India saw above-normal rainfall in June (8.9%), July (4.8%), and August (5.2%). August's rainfall surpassed IMD's initial prediction of normal to below-normal levels. The month recorded 268.1 mm of rain, making it the seventh highest since 2001 and the 46th highest since 1901. Northwest India experienced its highest rainfall since 2001, ranking as the 13th highest since 1901, while the South Peninsular region reported its third highest rainfall since 2001 and the eighth highest since 1901. The IMD attributed these record rainfall levels to an unusually high number of western disturbances in the northwest and the formation of low-pressure areas off the Odisha coast, which predominantly moved north and south, rather than towards central India. In its analysis of Augusts rainfall, the IMD noted that the country experienced the second-highest number of extremely and very heavy rainfall events in the past five years. These events were largely concentrated in the Western Ghats, Telangana, and northern India.

PM Modi to host NDA MPs for dinner ahead of vice-presidential polls on September 9

NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to host a dinner for National Democratic Alliance (NDA) MPs on the eve of the September 9 vice-presidential elections. The ruling NDA has the numbers to get its candidate, Maharashtra Governor C P Radhakrishnan, elected . But since members of the electoral college can vote according to their choice and are not bound by any party whip, the dinner meeting on September 8 could have a subtle message for allies to follow alliance dharma, remarked a senior BJP MP. The meeting would also give allies an opportunity to interact with the PM while helping avoid cross-voting. In what has been billed as a South vs South fight, the Opposition has pitted former Supreme Court judge B Sudershan Reddy , who hails from Telangana, against Radhakrishnan, who is from Tamil Nadu. Both are actively campaigning to ensure all their respective votes are polled. All members of both Houses of Parliament, including nominated members are part of the electoral college for the vice presidential elections. Voting is by secret ballot through the system of proportional representation by means of a single transferable vote. The winner has to secure at least one more than 50% of the valid votes cast. While the current electoral college has 782 members, the winning candidate needs at least 392 votes to sail through. The ruling NDA coalition has 426 MPs in Parliament 293 in the Lok Sabha and 133 in the Rajya Sabha.

Gandhi Se Ambedkar rally in Patna today, SIR pitch up

PATNA: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, RJDs Tejashwi Prasad Yadav and a host of other top leaders of INDIA bloc will participate in a march in the state capital on Monday, marking the conclusion of Voter Adhikar Yatra against ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and discrepancies in the exercise. The march, Gandhi Se Ambedkar, will be taken out after 16-day-long yatra, that covered around 1,300-km and passed through 110 assembly constituencies in 25 districts. The yatra was taken out on August 17 from Sasaram to protest against the vote theft in the garb of SIR. Besides Rahul and Tejashwi, prominent leaders like CPM general secretary MA Baby, CPI general secretary D Raja, JMM chief Hemant Soren, TMC MP Yusuf Pathan and Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut will participate in the march. Bihar Congress president Rajesh Kumar said that the march would be taken out from near Gandhi statue at the Gandhi Maidan to Ambedkar statue near the Patna High Court. He said that the administration has already given permission for the march. This is not a political event. We are taking out a peaceful march to fight for peoples right to vote, he said. The Voter Adhikar Yatra evoked a huge response as Rahul, Tejashwi, CPI (M-L) general secretary Dipankar Bhattacharya and VIPs Mukesh Sahani accused the BJP of trying to steal votes in complicity with the Election Commission. Leaders from across the country, including CMs of Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Karnataka and Himachal Pradesh as well as senior leaders like Akhilesh Yadav and Priyanka Gandhi joined the yatra. The participation of leaders from across the country has given strength to the fight against vote theft by the BJP with the help of the EC, said AICC media chairman Pawan Khera in Patna. As INDIA succeeded in showcasing unity during the yatra, the real test for them will begin during discussions on seat-sharing. The question is if the RJD, which had contested 144 seats and won 75, would concede the demand of allies. Indications are that RJD may settle at 135-140 seats and Congress 50-60.

Insider track | Mama and the politics of devotion

Shivraj Singh Chouhanfondly called Mamahas a knack for blending faith and timing. This week, he walked barefoot, sons in tow, carrying Ganapati Bappa Morya into his home. On its own, a heartwarming image. However, for observers, the timing was interestingly coincidental with murmurs about him as a frontrunner for the BJPs national president post. He has brushed off the speculation, saying his focus is on farmers and his ministerial duties. Still, some in the party insist his religious observances mattereach time he prays, a political door seems to open. One senior leader even mused, with a grin, Mama mahir hai sambhavanaon ki rajniti meinMama truly is a master of possibility politics. Is it a coincidence, or karma in action? Hard to say. With Mama, nothing ever feels entirely accidental. Pauses speak louder than words At the recent RSS conclave, Mohan Bhagwat drew a clear line between the Sangh and the BJP: They do their work, we do ours. Nothing more, nothing less. It was a diplomatic response to lingering rumours of interference. However, then came the line, tossed in casually yet carrying more weight than anything said officially: If we were deciding, would it have taken so long? The room laughed, but behind the chuckles was the unmistakable sense that he had revealed more than intendedor perhaps exactly what he intended. Some observers quietly wonder whether the Sangh is losing patience over the delay in the BJPs top-level decisions. Others think it was just Bhagwat being his cryptic self. Either way, the one-liner has sparked more debate than the entire speech preceding it. A bureaucratic U-turn? Earlier this year, the Centre was quite strict in denying states requests to extend the service tenures of their Chief Secretaries and top police officers. Jharkhand, UP, and Bihar all had their proposals rejected. It seemed like a patternor even a message. This week, however, brought a quiet shift. Madhya Pradesh was allowed to extend Chief Secretary Anurag Jains term by a year. Telanganas chief secretary, K. Ramakrishna Rao, also got an extra seven months. Theres no official explanation why, which of course creates space for speculation. Some read this as a political favour, others view it as a simple reassessment. In Delhi, its often difficult to determine whether the rules are being bentor applied a little flexibly. Mallick may replace George in Japan Nagma Mohamed Mallick is likely heading to Japan as Indias next ambassador, succeeding Sibi George. If confirmed, shell be only the second woman ever to hold that role, significant in the still male-heavy corridors of global diplomacy. Her career spans an impressive arc: France, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Tunisia, Brunei, and now Poland. She served in the PMO, managed Russia and Africa relations, and was Deputy Chief of Protocola first for a woman. Beyond her credentials, theres quiet assurance in her presence. She reads English literature, practices classical dance, speaks five languages, and balances diplomacy with wellness. Profiles like hers often shape the tone of relationships between nations. Bamboo diplomacy at its best In a very different corner of the world, something quietly hopeful unfolded this week. A delegation from Arunachal Pradesh went to Indonesia for a dialogue on sustainable bamboo practices. Backed by the Environmental Bamboo Foundation and the Indian Embassy in Jakarta, the visit focused on skill-building and knowledge-sharingespecially for women and youth from Northeast India. The idea is to turn bamboo into more than a plantits positioned as an engine for rural entrepreneurship and climate resilience. Bamboo charcoal, ethanol, design innovationsits a rich space with global potential. The Regent of Ngada even hosted a dinner in honour of the delegation. A small gesture, yes, but one that signified genuine warmth. In a world often dominated by geopolitical tension, perhaps such grassroots collaboration is the more enduring form of diplomacy.
