Pawan Kalyan Undergoes Surgery, Advised Bed Rest Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister K. Pawan Kalyan underwent a surgical procedure on Saturday evening, April 18, 2026, following a health complication that had worsened during an official meeting in Amaravati. The actor-politician, who has been dealing with health issues for several months, was admitted to a hospital in Vijayawada after experiencing severe discomfort while discussing administrative matters with officials. Medical experts later advised him to remain in bed for seven to 10 days, with full recovery requiring long-term care. The health issue, initially attributed to a spinal disc-related condition, reportedly intensified due to an injury sustained during an action sequence for his film Hari Hara Veera Mallu. After initial treatment in Vijayawada, doctors transferred him to Hyderabad for further evaluation. A statement from his political party, Jana Sena, confirmed that his health problems had resurfaced during the Friday meeting, prompting immediate medical intervention. Political leaders across the spectrum extended their well-wishes following the surgery. Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu expressed hope for Pawan Kalyan’s swift recovery, stating on social media that he would return “with renewed energy and full fitness” to contribute to the state’s development. Similar sentiments were shared by other ministers, including Nara Lokesh, Kolusu Parthasarathy, and Vasamsetty Subhash. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BRS Working President K. T. Rama Rao also conveyed their support. Modi, in a personal message, praised Pawan Kalyan’s courage and expressed confidence in his recovery, while Rama Rao emphasized the hope for his return to public life in good health.#hyderabad #andhra_pradesh #pawan_kalyan #vijayawada #k_pawan_kalyan
Nitish Kumar Reddy Interview: ‘I have overdone things… now I realise that’ Nitish Kumar Reddy, the 22-year-old all-rounder, reflected on his journey in cricket, highlighting the challenges he faced after his promising debut in 2024. The player, who scored his maiden Test century at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) during India’s tour of Australia, initially showed great potential as a seam-bowling all-rounder. His early career included a rapid rise through the ranks, with his T20I debut followed swiftly by a regular spot in the ODI squad. However, his performances did not match his early promise, and recurring injuries hindered his ability to establish consistency. Despite being part of the Test squad for the England series, he missed key matches due to an injury before the Manchester Test. Even after recovering, the selectors and coaches struggled to unlock his potential, with questions about his batting position and bowling effectiveness persisting. The turning point for Reddy came during a seven-day break after the Ranji Trophy, where he sought to address his bowling pace issues. He reached out to Steffan Jones, founder of PaceLab, after watching his work on social media. Jones, along with feedback from players in Andhra Pradesh and Hyderabad, guided Reddy through technical adjustments. The changes focused on increasing his run-up speed and refining his bowling mechanics, particularly his loading and hand position. While not fully implemented, these adjustments have already shown results, with Reddy’s bowling performance improving significantly in the IPL. His confidence has also translated to his batting, as he has taken on more responsibility for his franchise. Reddy acknowledged the importance of mental toughness, citing players like MS Dhoni and Mahendra Singh Dhoni as inspirations.#hyderabad #andhra_pradesh #nitish_kumar_reddy #melbourne_cricicket_ground #pace_lab
Gold and Silver Prices Surge Amid Global Market Volatility Gold and silver prices have experienced a significant surge in Hyderabad's bullion markets, driven by fluctuating international market conditions. On April 14, 2026, the prices of gold and silver saw a sharp increase, with the demand for these precious metals reaching record levels. The rise in prices was attributed to a combination of factors, including global market uncertainties, rising crude oil prices, and fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar. In Hyderabad's bullion markets, the price of 24-carat gold, which is commonly used for jewelry and investment purposes, rose by ₹1,470. This brought the price of 10 grams of pure gold to ₹1,53,930. Similarly, the price of 22-carat gold, which is widely used in the manufacturing of ornaments, increased by ₹1,350. The price of 10 grams of this type of gold now stands at ₹1,41,100. These figures reflect a substantial increase compared to previous days, as the market saw a surge in demand for gold amid economic uncertainties. Silver prices also saw a notable rise, with the price of one kilogram of silver increasing by ₹5,000. The current price of silver stands at ₹2,65,000 per kilogram. Analysts have pointed to the global market's instability as a key factor behind this surge. The uncertainty surrounding geopolitical tensions, inflationary pressures, and the fluctuating value of the U.S. dollar have all contributed to the increased demand for silver as a safe-haven asset. The rise in gold and silver prices has been closely monitored by investors and traders, who have been adjusting their portfolios in response to these market dynamics. Experts suggest that the upward trend in precious metal prices is likely to continue unless there is a significant shift in global economic conditions.#silver #gold #hyderabad #reserve_bank_of_india #bullion_markets

RUFC chairman KK Tak also addressed the transition from a successful home campaign to an away fixture. He acknowledged the team’s reliance on the passionate support of their home fans, who have been instrumental in driving their recent success.#hyderabad #sreenidi_deccan_fc #deccan_arena #vikrant_sharma #rajasthan_united_football_club
Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda Open Up About First Onscreen Kiss and Wedding Journey Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda, the actors who starred together in the film Geetha Govindam, recently reflected on their professional and personal milestones. The couple, who married on February 26 at the ITC Mementoes resort near Udaipur, shared insights about their first onscreen kiss in the movie, which marked a significant moment in their careers. In an earlier interview, Mandanna described the experience of filming their first kiss as both challenging and technical. She recalled, “First time kiss onscreen was in Geetha Govindam. First time and all, you don’t know how it is—it’s with a co-actor. For me, a kiss and all is a very personal thing. It is a very intimate thing. Two hundred people were watching, and I was like, how? But I think it is the same for the co-actor also. Vijay was feeling the same thing as I was. So it was like, how do we do it?” She added that the scene required a balance between authenticity and professionalism, noting, “It’s a technical thing; it’s who you do it with. At the end of the day, if the character needs it, then it’s good. If they don’t want to, then don’t. In Geetha Govindam, they were a married couple, so after marriage, you do whatever you want to do.” The couple’s collaboration in Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade solidified their onscreen chemistry, but their real-life relationship has also become a topic of public interest. Mandanna celebrated her birthday on April 5 with her husband at an undisclosed location, a private moment that highlighted their growing bond. The couple’s wedding, held at the luxurious ITC Mementoes resort, was a grand affair attended by close family and friends.#hyderabad #rashmika_mandanna #vijay_deverakonda #geetha_govindam #itc_mementoes
IPL 2026 Match Preview: SRH vs LSG Set for High-Scoring Showdown in Hyderabad The 10th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 will see Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) take on Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Hyderabad venue. Known for its high-scoring records, the venue is expected to favor aggressive batting, with SRH’s batting lineup posing a significant threat. After a home defeat in their previous encounter, LSG aims to respond with a strong performance, though the match is anticipated to be a battle of power-hitting and strategic bowling. A Clash of Power-Hitters The match is set to be a "six-hitting showdown," with both teams boasting explosive batsmen. SRH’s Abhishek Sharma, who has smashed 136 sixes in T20 cricket since 2025, will be a key asset, particularly in the powerplay. His partnership with Travis Head, known for dismantling fast bowlers, could dominate early overs. Mid-over contributions from Heinrich Klaasen and Aniket Verma, who have consistently punished spinners, will add depth to SRH’s batting order. Head himself has hit 60% of his sixes against fast bowlers, while Verma has struck 136 sixes in T20 history. LSG, on the other hand, has Nicholas Pooran and Rishabh Pant as their primary threats. Pooran, with 76 sixes in IPL history, is a master of the death overs, hitting 17-20 overs with precision. Pant, known for his late-order heroics, has consistently smashed boundaries in the final overs. Mitchell Marsh, who has hit 97 sixes in T20 cricket since 2025, adds another dimension to LSG’s batting attack. The rivalry between SRH’s powerplay specialists and LSG’s death-overs hitters is expected to be a defining factor.#hyderabad #ipl_2026 #abhishek_sharma #sunrisers_hyderabad #lucknow_super_giants
UBS Athletics Kids Cup Targets 1 Million Children as 2026 Season Begins Mumbai, April 2: The UBS Athletics Kids Cup, now in its third season, is expanding its reach with a goal of inspiring one million children across India to engage in sports through athletics-based activities. The initiative, organized by Dspowerparts and supported by UBS, has seen rapid growth in its first two years and is now scaling up its operations to new cities, enhancing its school-based model, and systematically expanding its nationwide “train-the-trainers” program to integrate sports into the Indian education system long-term. The program will be held in Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, and Chennai, with additional cities expected to join during the 2026 season. While the one-million target is a significant milestone, the organizers emphasize that this is not a 2026 deadline but rather a strategic step to strengthen the program’s infrastructure and reach. The focus remains on increasing participant numbers while building a sustainable system that supports athletics education for children. A core component of the initiative is the “Train-the-Trainers” program, designed to equip physical education teachers with the tools and resources needed to conduct athletics activities in schools. This program is modeled after Switzerland’s UBS Kids Cup, which has produced notable achievements, including the recent indoor heptathlon world record holder, Simon Ehammer. The Swiss initiative aims to promote physical activity, health, and personal development for children aged 7 to 15, and the Indian version seeks to replicate this success by embedding athletics into the education system. Competitions are structured through schools, with participants advancing from local events to regional and city-level finals in a multi-stage format.#mumbai #hyderabad #ubs #pune #dspowerparts

Hyderabad's Shrinking Lakes Trigger HYDRAA Action Plan Hyderabad’s lakes have shrunk by 61 percent between 1979 and 2024, according to a study by the National Remote Sensing Centre, severely disrupting the city’s hydrological system. The Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency (HYDRAA) has launched a comprehensive plan to reclaim 2,000 acres of public assets worth Rs 1 lakh crore, much of which is currently controlled by land grabbers. Officials emphasize that the reduction in lake size and water-holding capacity has heightened flood risks and worsened urban flooding, necessitating urgent corrective actions. HYDRAA’s immediate priorities include restoring the full tank level (FTL) of all lakes and delineating the nala network across the city. These details will be made public to ensure transparency. The agency plans to use drones and Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping to survey public assets and will implement continuous monitoring of reclaimed lakes, nalas, buffer zones, and road margins. Maintenance of stormwater drains and oversight of retrieved assets will also be part of the strategy to prevent further encroachment and ensure long-term protection. The urgency of these measures stems from Hyderabad’s rapid urbanization. The city’s population has grown sixfold in recent decades and is projected to double by 2050. This expansion has fueled a real estate boom, with land prices rising 100 to 500 times their original value. The soaring land value has driven widespread encroachment of lakes, nalas, parks, roads, and open spaces. HYDRAA has identified over 30,000 nala encroachments, many involving the filling of lakes with construction debris and converting them for real estate development.#hyderabad #national_remote_sensing_centre #vengalraonagar #nala_encroachment
Hyderabad Faces Severe Drinking Water Crisis as Illegal Contaminated Water Sales Rise Hyderabad is grappling with a critical drinking water shortage as soaring summer temperatures strain the city’s supply systems, leaving residents exposed to health risks from contaminated water. While many households rely on purified water, unscrupulous operators are capitalizing on the crisis by operating illegal water businesses, falsely advertising their products as safe for consumption. Health department officials report that over 2,000 water plants operate across the city, spanning areas like Malkajgiri, Secunderabad, and NMC regions such as Aliyabad and Yellampet. However, only approximately 300 of these facilities hold proper licenses, with the majority functioning without adequate oversight, often disregarding hygiene standards, ventilation requirements, and certified filtration systems. The lack of regulation has led to severe public health consequences, with children, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals reporting frequent stomach ailments, diarrhoea, and viral fevers. In several localities and suburban areas, residents are forced to depend on unregulated water sources, exacerbating the spread of waterborne diseases. Experts highlight that while legal frameworks exist, including BIS and FSSAI approvals, NABL-accredited water testing, and municipal trade licenses, enforcement remains weak. This lax monitoring has allowed illegal operations to thrive, creating a significant public health threat. The crisis is particularly acute in rapidly expanding peripheral areas like Kollur, Mokila, Tellapur, Nallagandla, and regions beyond Osmannagar, where urbanization has outpaced water infrastructure development.#hyderabad #nmc #malkajgiri #secunderabad #kollur
Hyderabad's Water Crisis: Rapid Growth Threatens Tap Supplies Hyderabad’s explosive urban expansion has outpaced its stagnant drinking water supply, raising concerns about the city’s ability to sustain its growing population. Despite expanding from 650 square kilometers to over 2,000 square kilometers and its population nearly doubling from 70 lakh in 2012 to 1.3 crore today, the city’s drinking water supply has remained frozen at 600 million gallons per day (MGD) for over 14 years. The last increase of 90 MGD came in 2012 under Krishna Phase III, but since then, there has been no addition to meet the soaring demand. The gap is already visible, with a current shortfall of around 150 MGD, projected to widen to over 230 MGD by 2027 when demand is expected to reach 833 MGD. The crisis is most acute in fast-growing peripheral areas like Kollur, Mokila, Tellapur, Nallagandla, and regions beyond Osmannagar, where real estate has boomed but water infrastructure has failed to keep pace. Residents in these areas now rely heavily on groundwater and private tankers to meet daily needs. The city consumed nearly 20 lakh tanker loads last year, with 3% of residents relying entirely on tanker supply. Strikingly, 90% of tanker bookings come from 42,000 apartment complexes, mostly in the western corridor. Experts warn that granting building permissions without ensuring water infrastructure is a serious lapse, urging authorities to pause approvals until supply systems are in place. Groundwater extraction has surged to dangerous levels, with several mandals, including Ameerpet, Khairatabad, Amberpet, Balanagar, Bachupally, and Serilingampally, classified as over-exploited. Extraction levels in these areas range from 100% to 177%, exceeding the Central Groundwater Board’s threshold for overuse.#hyderabad #hmwssb #godavari_drinking_water_supply_scheme_phase_ii_iii #krishna_phase_iii #osman_sagar
Hyderabad Gets More Rain Power supply in Hyderabad was severely disrupted by moderate rainfall on Sunday evening, affecting daily life and infrastructure. The city’s Meteorological Office recorded 18mm of rain in most areas, leading to immediate challenges for the electricity distribution network. The Hesco power utility reported that 110 out of the city’s 160 feeders tripped shortly after the rain began at 7pm. Of the 962 feeders across the Hesco region, 223 were impacted, with efforts ongoing to restore normalcy by late evening. The downpour also caused logistical issues, including water accumulation in low-lying areas and disruptions to routine activities. On Saturday, heavy rains interfered with planned Eid prayers at open spaces. The congregation at the Old Eidgah in Saddar was canceled as rain started an hour before the scheduled 8am prayer time. The event was relocated to Jamia Masjid in the same area, where the large turnout and limited space led to two separate prayer sessions led by different Imams. Meanwhile, Eid prayers at Rani Bagh Eidgah and Liberty Chowk, led by Sahibzada Abdul Khair Mohammad Zubair, proceeded without interruption. The continuous rainfall has persisted since March 18, when the Met Office recorded 7mm of rain. This has raised concerns about the city’s preparedness for prolonged wet weather. The situation highlights the vulnerability of urban infrastructure to sudden weather changes and the need for adaptive measures to mitigate disruptions. The article also mentions broader regional weather forecasts, with the Met Office predicting rain and thunderstorms across the country from March 24 to 30. This underscores the potential for widespread impacts on transportation, agriculture, and public services.#hyderabad #hesco #old_eidgah #jamia_masjid #met_office

Medico’s death over pet cat dispute exposes deeper student mental health crisis in Hyderabad A young MBBS graduate in Hyderabad ended her life following a disagreement with her family over her pet cat, highlighting a growing mental health crisis among students. The incident, which occurred on March 20, has drawn attention to the fragile state of emotional well-being among young people, where seemingly minor conflicts can escalate into irreversible outcomes. The woman, who had recently completed her MBBS and was preparing for postgraduate entrance exams, took her own life at home after an argument with her mother. The dispute centered on the mother’s objection to allowing a pet cat inside the house, citing health concerns. The young woman, who had been caring for the cat for three months, was reportedly distressed after being reprimanded. Her family described the loss as both incomprehensible and devastating, lamenting the abrupt end to a promising medical career over what they deemed a trivial disagreement. Operators of helplines in Hyderabad have noted a significant rise in distress calls from students, with over a quarter of daily contacts attributed to mental health issues. This trend underscores a broader crisis, where young people are increasingly grappling with stress, emotional dependency, and gaps in coping mechanisms. The incident has sparked conversations about the pressures faced by students, particularly in a competitive academic environment, and the need for better mental health support systems. The case has also raised questions about the role of family dynamics in exacerbating mental health struggles. While the mother’s concerns about health were valid, the emotional toll on the daughter highlights the importance of open communication and empathy.#hyderabad #medico #mbbs_graduate #helpline_operators #mental_health_crisis
Sehri Time for Ramadan 2026: City-Wise Timings for Delhi, Mumbai, Lucknow, Hyderabad, Kolkata The pre-dawn meal for Ramadan 2026, known as Sehri, begins at varying times across Indian cities due to differences in sunrise. For March 20, 2026, the timing of Sehri marks the start of the fast, requiring precise adherence to ensure the fast begins correctly. While the differences in timing are minimal, they are significant for those observing the fast, as the meal must be completed before the first prayer of the day, Fajr. Ramadan mornings are characterized by a quiet, slow pace, with kitchens preparing meals in a subdued manner before sunrise. Sehri, the final meal of the day before fasting, holds a central role in this routine. Its timing is critical, as it ends just before Fajr, making accuracy essential. The shift in Sehri time across cities reflects the gradual changes in daylight as the month progresses. In Lucknow, Sehri is expected to end at 4:53 am. Many residents finish their meal slightly earlier to avoid last-minute rush, opting for simple, light dishes. Delhi’s Sehri time is set for 5:07 am, a few minutes later than Lucknow, highlighting the subtle variations caused by geographical positioning. Hyderabad follows closely with a cut-off at 5:08 am, where mosque announcements or mobile apps are commonly used to track the exact moment. Mumbai’s Sehri time is later at 5:30 am, as the city’s western location results in a delayed sunrise. This slight extension of the morning window is a reflection of the city’s position relative to the sun. In contrast, Kolkata’s Sehri ends earlier at 4:26 am, as the eastern location means the day begins sooner, making mornings move more quickly. Chennai’s Sehri time falls between the earlier eastern cities and the later western ones, ending at 5:03 am.#kolkata #delhi #mumbai #lucknow #hyderabad

Sehri Time Today, March 18: City-Wise Ramadan 2026 Timings for Major Indian Cities The pre-dawn meal, Sehri, marks the start of the fast during Ramadan, with timings varying slightly across Indian cities due to differences in sunrise times. For March 18, 2026, the Sehri period begins at different hours depending on the location, making accurate timing essential for observant Muslims. In Lucknow, Sehri is expected to end at 4:56 am. Many residents choose to finish their meal a few minutes earlier to avoid the last-minute rush, opting for simple, light fare to sustain them through the day. Delhi’s Sehri time is around 5:09 am, with minor variations even within nearby regions. Hyderabad follows closely at 5:10 am, where people often rely on prayer apps or mosque announcements to track the exact cutoff. Mumbai, due to its western location, sees a later Sehri time at 5:32 am, as sunrise arrives later compared to eastern cities. Kolkata, being further east, has an earlier Sehri end time of 4:28 am, shortening the morning window for fasting. Chennai’s Sehri timing falls between eastern and western cities at 5:04 am. In Srinagar, Sehri is expected at 5:14 am, reflecting the gradual shifts in daylight as Ramadan progresses in northern regions. Bengaluru’s Sehri ends around 5:15 am, aligning closely with other major metropolitan areas. Sehri holds significant importance during Ramadan, serving as the beginning of the fast. Once the time passes and the Fajr prayer begins, the fast commences and continues until sunset. The routine typically involves eating, hydrating, and pausing for a moment of calm before moving into daily activities. This quiet, intentional start to the day is a key part of the Ramadan experience, setting a peaceful tone for the hours ahead.#kolkata #delhi #mumbai #lucknow #hyderabad
