Digital Desk | Balrampur, Oct 10 (IANS) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday accepted the challenge thrown by Samajwadi Party (SP) President Akhilesh Yadav to contest the upcoming state Assembly polls from Ayodhya, saying that the political contest should be a direct face-off. The Chief Minister made the remarks while addressing a gathering in Uttar Pradesh's Balrampur for the inauguration and foundation-laying of several development projects. CM Adityanath also lashed out at Akhilesh Yadav for fielding his own uncle (Ram Gopal Yadav) and an industrialist (Dhanraj Parimal Nathwani) as SP's Rajya Sabha candidates from Uttar Pradesh, instead of someone from the backward or Brahmin communities. When people first asked me regarding PDA, I had replied that it stands for 'Parivar Development Authority' since they (Samajwadi Party) don't have anything else to think about other than their family. Recently Rajya Sabha polls were conducted in the state, was there any Dalit candidate from the Samajwadi Party? Or whether there is any SP candidate from any other backward community or from communities such as the Brahmins, Kayastha, Vaishya, Kshatriya or Khatri?... No, the Chief Minister said. Samajwadi Party contested in two of the ten seats, of which Akhilesh Yadav's uncle Ram Gopal Yadav was fielded from one, while the second seat was sold to a 'Dhanna seth' (industrialist Dhanraj Parimal Nathwani). This is what their PDA stands for, 'Parivar Development Authority' and 'Paraya Dhan Apna', CM Adityanath remarked. The Chief Minister accused the SP of selling out Uttar Pradesh, saying: That is why I say that the real meaning of PDA is 'Pradesh Dubau Alliance'. Those who drowned the state, created troubles for the youth here, those who robbed them of employment opportunities, troubled farmers and made Balrampur as the most poor district of the country, is the Samajwadi Party. He responded to Akhilesh Yadav's challenge regarding contesting Assembly polls from Ayodhya. CM Adityanath said: They challenged me to contest the election from Ayodhya. Well, Akhileshji, Ayodhya is our sacred abode. I visit it to ensure there is no laxity in its development and that no blemish tarnishes the identity of Uttar Pradesh. He also criticised the previous SP government of poor electricity supply and sanitation issues in Ayodhya. The place which only received three to four hours of electricity and was plagued by heaps of filth by you (Akhilesh Yadav)now stands as an example of 'Ram Rajya,' evoking memories of the Treta Yuga, he said. Issuing a direct challenge to Akhilesh Yadav, CM Adityanath said: I offer you to file your nomination from Ayodhya, and I will file mine. He asserted that political contests should be direct. Taking a jibe at the SP Chief, Chief Minister Adityanath remarked: Battle should be against the main adversaries rather than their 'disciples' (proxies); the contest should be a direct face-off. Accusing SP leaders of adopting a soft stance towards mafia, the Chief Minister said: Those people who visited the graves of professional criminals, don't stand a chance to contest against us! The public has already delivered a fitting response to such individuals in the past. The public has already delivered their verdict that the NDA will win 80 per cent of the seats in the upcoming Assembly elections and even if the rest 20 per cent go to them (SP), I assure you that we will not let Balrampur lag behind in terms of development, he said while reiterating a previous remark. Emphasising that there is a limit to opposing things, CM Adityanath claimed that Congress and its alliance partners have even forgotten the basics of decency, while referring to the ongoing protests against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. By using deplorable language and letting go of all values, they are trying to spread anarchy in the country which will not be allowed by the double-engine government (of the NDA). Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, nobody will be able to mess with India's dignity, he said. Those trying to spread anarchy will meet the same fate as those who attempted to spread terrorism and Naxalism, CM Adityanath warned.

Star Power Meets Exuberance Of Youth As 92nd Ranji Trophy Season Kicks Off From Sunday
T20 World Cup: The 92nd edition of the Ranji Trophy begins from Sunday, with much-needed star power meeting the exuberance of youth in India's premier domestic red-ball competition. The first round will see a handful of high-profile India internationals feature before joining the India A squad for the shadow three-game red-ball tour of New Zealand. With everyones attention on India's T20 World Cup defence at home, the Ranji Trophy happenings initially flew under the radar before exploding on to the spotlight as Jammu & Kashmir clinched their historic maiden title triumph in Hubbali led by Auqib Nabis 60 scalps, which led to him getting an international debut against the West Indies in Guwahati ODI last month. As J&K prepare to defend their crown and whether they will be able to do it will make for an interesting watch. The Paras Dogra-led side will be aiming to bounce back against Madhya Pradesh in Srinagar after suffering a defeat to Rest of India in the Irani Cup. The opening round of the 2026/27 season is set to be a blockbuster. KL Rahul (Karnataka), Yashasvi Jaiswal (Mumbai), Ravindra Jadeja (Saurashtra), Mohammed Siraj (Hyderabad), Manav Suthar (Rajasthan), Washington Sundar (Tamil Nadu), Mukesh Kumar and Akash Deep (Bengal) are set to feature in the first round for their respective teams. For some, the Ranji Trophy will be a crucial window for pressing claims for being back in national reckoning like for Mumbais Sarfaraz Khan and Karnatakas Karun Nair. Youngsters such as Mumbais Ayush Mhatre and Jharkhand's left-handed opener Shikhar Mohan will look to enhance their reputation in red-ball cricket. Veteran fast bowler Mohammed Shami, who toiled hard to claim 37 wickets last season, is also back in action. Shami, who along with Mukesh and Akash, will be in Bengal, who take on Delhi in Kalyani, will be eager to break back into the Test set-up after seeing his India new-ball partner Bhuvneshwar Kumar earn a T20I recall for the upcoming tour of New Zealand. Delhi, meanwhile, restart their race for red-ball glory by sporting a revamped support staff following the appointments of former India wicketkeeper-batter Vijay Dahiya as head coach and Rajkumar Sharma, childhood coach of batting stalwart Virat Kohli, as the team mentor. Eyes of the four-member selection panel will also be on Vidarbha's Harsh Dubey, Praful Hinge, Yash Rathod, and Uttar Pradesh leg-spinner Zeeshan Ansari. Seasoned campaigners such as Umesh Yadav (Punjab), Harshal Patel (Gujarat), Mandeep Singh and Hanuma Vihari (both Tripura) will shoulder vital mentorship roles. While the opening round belongs to India's marquee names, the coming weeks will test if a new crop of domestic heroes can rise from the relative obscurity to reshape the national red-ball talent pool. With Arunachal Pradesh at risk of forfeiting their game against Nagaland due to the ongoing legal dispute between two factions of the Arunachal Cricket Association (ACA), it remains to be seen when the legal deadlock will end so that the states cricketers dont miss out on a season of showcasing their talent. Ranji Trophy 2026-27 season groups: Group A: Bihar, Baroda, Goa, Jammu and Kashmir, Madhya Pradesh, Pondicherry, Uttar Pradesh and Vidarbha. Group B: Karnataka, Andhra, Saurashtra, Chhattisgarh, Hyderabad, Tripura, Punjab, and Assam. Group C: Bengal, Delhi, Gujarat, Jharkhand, Kerala, Maharashtra, Services and Odisha. Group D: Mumbai, Rajasthan, Haryana, Tamil Nadu, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Railways. Plate Group: Mizoram, Manipur, Nagaland, Sikkim, Meghalaya, and Arunachal Pradesh.

'People have right to protest peacefully: Oppn leaders back CJPs Jantar Mantar protest
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 10 (IANS) Opposition leaders on Saturday backed the right to peaceful protest as the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) called for a demonstration at Jantar Mantar against the Election Commission of India (ECI), with leaders raising concerns over alleged electoral irregularities and the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process. Uttar Pradesh State Congress President Aradhana Mishra Mona said the Constitution guarantees every political party and organisation the right to protest peacefully and hold the government accountable for its policies. Our Constitution gives every political party and organisation the right to protest peacefully. It is the moral responsibility of political parties and organisations to voice their opinions and hold the government accountable for its wrong policies, she told IANS. Samajwadi Party spokesperson Ashutosh Verma said the call issued by the CJP had drawn interest from people across different parts of the country. One thing is clear: People from across the country, not just North India but also South, East and West India, want to join the Cockroach Janata Partys call. Why do they want to come? Because they are convinced that electoral malpractice has taken place through the Election Commission, with Gyanesh Kumars name being used as a front, Verma said. Telangana Jana Samithi (TJS) chief and MLC, M. Kodandaram also criticised the security arrangements and the reported suspension of Internet services amid the planned demonstration. Today, on October 10, the Cockroach Janata Party has issued a special call to reach Jantar Mantar to protest against the Election Commission of India. They are also demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. However, heavy security forces have been deployed, and Internet services have been suspended, preventing people from reaching the Jantar Mantar area. I think this is a very big mistake, he said. Congress leader Husain Dalwai also questioned the measures taken amid the protest, linking the demonstration to concerns over alleged irregularities in the SIR process. These actions are wrong. People are protesting because of irregularities in the SIR process, which has deprived 13 crore people of their right to participate in elections. This is completely wrong, Dalwai said. The leaders remarks came as the CJPs call for a protest against the Election Commission and its demand for Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumars resignation brought electoral processes and the right to dissent into focus.

Additional women police personnel have been called in from Uttar Pradesh and Haryana. Authorities have also announced traffic diversions across central Delhi, while Metro station closures and internet restrictions have been reported in parts of the capital. The protest concerns alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls.

The increased stipend will help students manage their expenses during this critical training period.

Delhi-NCR wakes up to cool breeze; IMD predicts rain, thunderstorms over weekend
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 10 (IANS) People in Delhi-NCR woke up to pleasant weather and cool breezes on Saturday, with a high likelihood of rain. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast rainfall in several areas on Saturday and Sunday, along with thunderstorms, lightning and strong winds reaching speeds of up to 50 kmph in some parts of Delhi. The change in weather is attributed to a western disturbance and a cyclonic circulation over neighbouring states. According to the IMD, thunderstorms are likely in Delhi and adjoining states due to a western disturbance over north Pakistan and its neighbouring areas, along with an upper-air cyclonic circulation over Haryana and adjoining northwestern Uttar Pradesh. Meanwhile, dust levels have also affected air quality across Delhi-NCR. On Friday, Delhi's air quality remained in the moderate category. According to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), the city's Air Quality Index (AQI) stood at 173 at 9.30 a.m., falling in the 'moderate' category. The minimum temperatures recorded at the Safdarjung and Lodhi Road weather stations were 25.2 degrees Celsius and 24.2 degrees Celsius, respectively, which were 4.2 degrees above normal at both locations. At Ayanagar, the minimum temperature was recorded at 24.7 degrees Celsius, 3.8 degrees above normal. The Ridge and Palam weather stations recorded minimum temperatures of 23.8 degrees Celsius and 22.7 degrees Celsius, respectively. Meanwhile, the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) has intensified efforts to control dust emissions from construction activities. It is conducting regular and surprise inspections at ongoing government and private project sites across the national Capital. During these inspections, show-cause notices have been issued to the project agencies concerned, including some government bodies, after violations of prescribed dust-control regulations were detected at certain sites. Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta said on Friday that pollution-control regulations must be followed without exception. She said the government's priority was to ensure that all construction projects effectively implement the prescribed pollution-control measures. Gupta warned that action would be taken against agencies found violating the rules. She emphasised that no government department, construction agency, contractor or private company was above the law, adding that the same pollution-control standards applied to government and private construction projects.
