Karnataka SIR eases rules for elderly, disabled persons, sick and NRI voters
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Sep 11 (IANS) The Karnataka Chief Electoral Officers (CEO) office has directed the election officials to allow adult family members to appear on behalf of senior citizens, persons with disabilities, sick persons and overseas electors in connection with the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. In a memorandum issued on Friday, Joint Chief Electoral Officer S. Yogeshwara directed election officials to permit any adult family member of such electors to appear in person before the Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) and Assistant Electoral Registration Officers (AEROs) on their behalf and submit the required documents and information for disposal of notices issued to them. The direction follows a reference to the Election Commission of India (ECI) letter issued on May 14 this year, concerning the disposal of notices issued to senior citizens, persons with disabilities, sick persons and overseas electors. The CEO's office has asked the District Election Officer, Bengaluru, the Chief Commissioner of the Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA), District Election Officers and Deputy Commissioners across the state, as well as Additional District Election Officers of BBMP Central, North and South election districts, to issue necessary instructions to the EROs and AEROs. The measure is aimed at making the SIR-related process more accessible for electors, who may face difficulties in appearing before election officials personally. The memorandum also directs EROs and AEROs to explain the procedure being followed for issuing and disposing of notices during meetings with political parties held on a weekly basis at their respective levels. The instructions have also been circulated to the Commissioner of the Department of Information and Public Relations for publicity, besides all Electoral Registration Officers, AEROs and Additional AEROs of the state's 224 Assembly constituencies. The latest direction comes amid the ongoing SIR exercise in Karnataka, under which election authorities are undertaking verification and revision of electoral rolls. The arrangement allowing adult family members to represent vulnerable categories is expected to ease the process of responding to notices and submitting the necessary documents. The office of the CEO has also released photos and videos of officers reaching out to the vulnerable voters and enabling them to enrol their names in the voters' list.

US proposes to scrap H-1B 60-day grace period after job loss: How will it affect Indians?
The United States has proposed doing away with the discretionary 60-day grace period that currently gives certain foreign workers time to look for a new job after their employment ends. The proposal could have major implications for skilled foreign professionals, including thousands of Indian workers employed in the US on H-1B visas . Under the proposed rule, foreign nationals whose employment comes to an end could lose the additional time currently available to find another employer or make arrangements to leave the country. If the proposal is eventually implemented, workers whose visas remain valid but whose qualifying employment has ended may have to leave the US immediately unless they have another independent legal basis to stay.

Preity Zinta says Bollywoods focus has shifted from NRI romances to Indias pride and history
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 9 (IANS) Actress Preity Zinta has opened up about the changes she has witnessed in Bollywood throughout her journey in the film industry. Looking back at her career, which began in the late 1990s, the actress reflected on how filmmaking, technology and storytelling have evolved over the years. Speaking exclusively to IANS, Preity recalled being part of a period when the industry was undergoing several significant changes. From the introduction of live sound to the transition from film cameras to digital technology, she said filmmaking has come a long way. The Veer Zara actress stated, By 28 years, I say, I was very lucky that I actually came right at the end of the 90s, really. Films were changing then because I did a film called Kya Kehna, and it was a very different film. Not so different, as they had made films like that before, but for me, as a newcomer, to debut in a film like that was very different. Then, in 2000, Dil Chahta Hai came, and it was a film that used live sound, so dubbing stopped. I think I was part of that change when it was happening in the industry. From there to now, I dont see any big difference in terms of how films are approached, except that digital cameras have come in, and youre not shooting on film anymore. The Soldier actress also highlighted a shift in the themes explored by Hindi cinema. Preity said Bollywoods focus has gradually shifted from the NRI-centric romances that were popular during an earlier era to stories that are more rooted in India. She noted that filmmakers are now exploring themes such as national pride and history. Preity said, So, the one thing that I see thats different about films is that theres a lot more pride in being Indian. Earlier, we did a lot of NRI romances, but now the focus has shifted to India you know, our pride, historical movies, movies on the army. Comedies are different in terms of the vibe the vibe is vibing, as you say. So, there are some differences, but not that many. Speaking about the changes, she further mentioned that the pressure of delivering remains the same. So, the pressure I mean, the pressure is still the same of delivering what youre doing. Earlier, we had film cameras, except now the cameras have turned digital, and there are a lot of things where people go, Dont worry, well fix it in post. We didnt have that option of fixing things in post or with live sound. Things have become different. You have to get it right because earlier, you could dub it and fix it in dubbing. Now, you have to get it right because very few people dub. You only dub sequences where theres noise or something; otherwise, you dont really dub. Preity Zinta made her acting debut with Mani Ratnams 1998 Hindi film Dil Se. After establishing herself in Bollywood with a string of successful films, the actress took a long break from acting to focus on her personal life, marriage and family. After an eight-year hiatus, Preity returned to the silver screen with the period drama Batwara 1947. Directed by Rajkumar Santoshi and backed by Aamir Khan Productions, the film, starring Sunny Deol, hit theatres on August 14, 2026.

The United States destroyed five Iranian crude oil carriers near Kharg Island after the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) twice targeted an American Navy warship with ballistic missiles over the past two days, US Central Command (CENTCOM) said.
Iran has launched a fresh barrage of ballistic missiles towards US military targets in Jordan, the Associated Press reported citing Iranian state-run media, in the latest escalation in the ongoing conflict between Tehran and Washington. The missile attack came shortly after the US military destroyed five Iranian crude oil tankers in response to attempted ballistic missile strikes on an American Navy warship. The latest exchange has further intensified the confrontation between the two countries, with military activity increasingly focused around Iran's oil infrastructure and the strategically important Strait of Hormuz. The US has been combining military operations with economic pressure aimed at restricting Iran's ability to generate revenue and sustain its war effort.
