The BJP has launched the Atmanirbhar Bharat Sankalp Abhiyan in Maharashtra, a three-month-long campaign that will run from September 25 to December 25, 2025. The initiative was inaugurated by Maharashtra BJP president Ravindra Chavan and is timed to begin on the birth anniversary of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay and conclude on the birth anniversary of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The campaign focuses on spreading the message of self-reliance and empowering citizens to adopt local products and solutions in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of a self-reliant India. As part of the Abhiyan, BJP workers will engage in grassroots outreach, organize awareness drives, and conduct programs to promote “Vocal for Local” and economic self-sufficiency across Maharashtra. The initiative aims to not only strengthen the idea of Atmanirbhar Bharat but also to connect people with policies and opportunities that support entrepreneurship, skill development, and local economic growth. #news #Newsone #AtmanirbharBharat #BJP #MaharashtraPolitics #SelfReliantIndia #EconomicGrowth #PoliticalCampaign #VocalForLocal #IndiaNews @bjp
India is set to host its largest-ever drone and counter-drone exercise, codenamed “Cold Start”, in the first week of October 2025. This ambitious exercise will bring together the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force, along with top defence research organizations, private industry players, and academic institutions. The focus will be on simulating real battlefield scenarios, testing drones for reconnaissance, surveillance, and strike capabilities, as well as neutralizing potential drone threats. The exercise is expected to cover a range of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and counter-UAS technologies, ensuring India is better prepared for evolving aerial challenges. Beyond just training, “Cold Start” has strategic importance as it aligns with India’s plan to build a comprehensive indigenous air defence umbrella, “Sudarshan Chakra,” by 2035. This system aims to integrate drones, hypersonic defence measures, and advanced early-warning systems into a single robust shield. The exercise will also incorporate lessons learned from recent operations such as “Operation Sindoor,” giving India an edge in modern warfare preparedness and boosting self-reliance in defence technology. #news #Newsone #ColdStart #IndiaDefense #DroneExercise #IndianMilitary #DefenseTechnology #CombatReadiness #MilitaryDrills #IndiaNews
Recent reports indicate that at least 12 people have died in Kolkata and surrounding areas after record rainfall caused severe flooding. Most deaths were due to electrocution, while at least two victims drowned. The city received an astonishing 251.6 mm of rain in 24 hours — the heaviest downpour since 1988 — inundating streets, damaging pandals and idols ahead of Durga Puja, and disrupting power and transport systems. Flights and trains were cancelled or delayed, while roads turned into rivers under waist-deep water. Schools and educational institutions have been closed, and authorities are scrambling to deploy water pumps, restore services, and manage the emergency response. #news #Newsone #KolkataFloods #WestBengalNews #FloodUpdate #DisasterRelief #HeavyRainfall #UrbanFlooding #ClimateImpact #IndiaNews

In a significant development, the Maharashtra government has sanctioned ₹15 crore for the long-awaited Mahajyoti Hostel and Training Center project in Nagpur. This 12-storey facility, under the Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Research and Training Institute, aims to provide modern hostel and training amenities for students from OBC, SC, ST, and minority communities. The allocation comes after Minister Chhagan Bhujbal's strong criticism of the state's inaction on backward class welfare, particularly highlighting the poor condition of existing hostels and a troubling incident at an OBC girls' hostel. The funding, allocated under the 2025-26 budget, is seen as a response to mounting political pressure. Opposition leaders, including Shiv Sena (UBT)’s Nitin Tiwari and NCP’s Anil Deshmukh, have criticized the move as symbolic and insufficient, calling it a damage-control measure following recent failures related to caste-based reservations. The government's decision places Mahajyoti’s executive director in charge of fund utilization, with strict accountability measures. Political observers view the timing of this investment as directly linked to Bhujbal’s recent outburst, with the project's completion now under close scrutiny. #news #Newsone #MahajyotiHostel #NagpurNews #MaharashtraGovernment #OBCWelfare #SCSTMinoritySupport #StudentFacilities #BudgetAllocation #EducationNews
A controversy has erupted over the cancellation of a Garba event in Nagpur, with conflicting reports about the reasons behind the decision. Organizers claim that the event was halted due to a lack of No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP), while police officials state that the event was stopped for not adhering to safety protocols. The disagreement has sparked debates about the role of religious organizations and law enforcement in regulating cultural events. Community leaders are calling for a transparent investigation into the matter to determine the true cause of the cancellation. They emphasize the importance of preserving cultural traditions while ensuring public safety. The incident has highlighted the need for clear guidelines and communication between event organizers, religious groups, and authorities to prevent misunderstandings in the future. #news #Newsone #NagpurNews #GarbaEvent #EventCancellation #VHP #PublicSafety #CulturalEvents #CommunityDebate #IndiaNews
Ousmane Dembélé has been awarded the 2025 Ballon d'Or, marking a significant milestone in his career. The Paris Saint-Germain forward clinched the prestigious honor after a standout season, scoring 35 goals and providing 14 assists, contributing to PSG's historic quadruple, including their first-ever UEFA Champions League title. Dembélé's resurgence followed a tactical shift by manager Luis Enrique, who moved him into a central attacking role, allowing him to form a formidable partnership with teammates Kvaratskhelia and Doué. In an emotional acceptance speech at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris, Dembélé dedicated his award to his family, hometown, and PSG supporters. He humbly acknowledged the collective effort behind his success, referring to himself as the "second" recipient of the symbolic "people's Ballon d'Or," following in the footsteps of his idol, Karim Benzema. Despite currently recovering from a hamstring injury sustained during international duty, Dembélé's achievement underscores his resilience and pivotal role in PSG's triumphs this season. #news #Newsone #OusmaneDembele #BallonDor2025 #PSG #UEFAChampionsLeague #FootballAwards #LuisEnrique #SoccerStars #SportsNews
On September 22, 2025, President Donald Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced new initiatives aimed at addressing the rising prevalence of autism in the United States. They proposed that the FDA issue a warning about a potential link between acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy and autism, despite the lack of scientific evidence supporting this claim. Additionally, they endorsed leucovorin, a folic acid derivative, as a treatment for autism symptoms, though its effectiveness remains unproven. These proposals have sparked significant controversy and criticism from the medical community. Experts argue that such statements are not supported by scientific data and could potentially harm public health by spreading misinformation. The Autism Science Foundation has expressed concern that this announcement distracts from the urgent scientific work needed to understand the true causes of autism and to develop better supports and interventions for autistic individuals and their families. They emphasize that autism is the result of a complex mix of genetics and environmental factors, and that hundreds of genes have been linked to autism, with inherited or spontaneous changes in these genes altering brain development. People with autism and their families have also found the Trump-Kennedy message harmful and wrong, stating that it perpetuates negative stereotypes and fails to recognize the strengths and talents of neurodivergent individuals. #news #Newsone #AutismAwareness #TrumpKennedy #PublicHealth #MedicalControversy #AutismResearch #HealthNews #ScientificIntegrity #Neurodiversity
