Bengal CM Suvendu Adhikari warns Mamata Banerjee ahead of Nandigram bypoll

Bengal CM Suvendu Adhikari warns Mamata Banerjee ahead of Nandigram bypoll

West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Monday escalated the political row over Mamata Banerjee’s 2021 leg injury, warning the former chief minister that more medical documents could be disclosed if she or her legal team pursued the matter further.

According to The Indian Express, Adhikari’s remarks came shortly after Banerjee issued a legal notice to SSKM Hospital and the Bangur Institute of Neurosciences, demanding an explanation over the alleged unauthorised disclosure of her medical records related to the Nandigram incident.

Speaking to reporters, Adhikari appeared to caution Banerjee against pursuing the issue further, saying that he could make additional records, including X-ray plates and MRI reports, public if required.

“Do not poke around too much. If I start showing the X-ray plates and MRI reports, you will not be able to step out of your house,” he said.

Adhikari also claimed that the documents in his possession were not sourced from SSKM Hospital, while declining to immediately disclose how he obtained them.

“If necessary, I will say where I got the records from. The papers were not at SSKM. They were not supposed to be at SSKM,” he said, adding that Banerjee’s legal team should not “dig too deep” into the issue.

He further claimed that Banerjee had retained several documents in her office at Nabanna, saying she had expected to return as chief minister for a fourth term. Adhikari did not clarify whether the medical records he referred to had been obtained from Banerjee’s office or her residence.

The latest exchange follows Adhikari’s recent allegation that Banerjee had fabricated her leg injury during the 2021 West Bengal Assembly election campaign in Nandigram. It also comes a day ahead of the Nandigram bypoll—once a hotly contested seat between Adhikari and Banerjee which is going to the polls again after Adhikari vacated the seat to retain the Bhabanipur assembly constituency, defeating the TMC supremo in her home turf.

Though the Nandigram Assembly bypoll, scheduled for October 6, has 16 candidates in the fray, it is set to see a straight contest between BJP’s Hasirani Rath and Congress’ Milan Pradhan, who has been granted interim bail by the Calcutta High Court to fight the election.

The bypoll has also drawn attention after TMC’s initial nominee withdrew, with the party subsequently backing Pradhan, who was arrested on September 18 in connection with several criminal cases dating back to the 2007 Nandigram anti-land-acquisition movement.

According to The Indian Express, at a press conference a few days ago, Adhikari displayed a document that he identified as a March 11, 2021, report from the Department of Radio Diagnosis at the Bangur Institute of Neurosciences. According to Adhikari, the report did not indicate any fracture.

He had also announced that the state government would initiate a fresh inquiry into what he described as Banerjee’s “false claims” regarding the leg injury during the 2021 election campaign.

Banerjee’s legal team subsequently sought answers from the hospitals over the alleged disclosure of her medical information. The notice sought an explanation on how Banerjee’s medical records allegedly came into Adhikari’s possession and how they were subsequently made public.

14,000-ft plunge, silent cockpit, fighter jets: Why Israel was prepared to shoot down flydubai plane carrying 150+ Israelis

Why Israel was prepared to shoot down flydubai plane carrying 150+ Israelis

Israel was prepared to consider shooting down a flydubai passenger aircraft carrying more than 150 Israelis after an Omani co-pilot allegedly attacked Indian captain Smit Machchhar in the cockpit, according to CBS News.

Two Israeli sources with direct knowledge of the situation told the broadcaster that Israel has a long-established procedure for dealing with a possible 9/11-style hijacking and was ready to act if the aircraft posed a threat to populated areas.

The incident occurred last week when the flydubai flight bound for Tel Aviv was allegedly attacked by co-pilot Hammam Al-Hammami with a crash axe. The aircraft subsequently plunged around 14,000 feet, raising concerns that it could have been taken over.

Israeli Air Force scrambled fighter jets

Following the sudden descent, the Israeli Air Force attempted to establish contact with the cockpit but received no response, according to CBS News.

A command centre was set up and Israeli airspace was closed as fighter jets were scrambled to assess the situation.

The Israeli aircraft were later recalled after the passenger plane changed course towards Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia subsequently scrambled its own fighter jets as the aircraft headed towards its territory.

The situation eventually changed after Machchhar managed to unlock the cockpit door. Israeli passengers and flydubai personnel then entered the cockpit and restrained the co-pilot.

What would Israel have done?

According to CBS News, Israel has a specific procedure for dealing with an aircraft suspected of being hijacked and maintaining radio silence.

If the aircraft had approached within a certain distance of Ben Gurion International Airport, Israeli fighter jets could have entered Jordanian airspace to intercept and assess the situation.

The pilots would have attempted to establish visual contact with the cockpit and determine what was happening inside the aircraft. Their assessment would then have been relayed to the Israeli Air Force and a pre-established committee.

If the committee determined that the aircraft had been hijacked and the suspected hijackers remained unresponsive, the matter could have been escalated to the Israeli prime minister and defence minister.

Israel has a policy allowing a rogue aircraft to be shot down in extreme circumstances, although only the prime minister can authorise such an action.

The Israeli sources told CBS News that such a decision could be considered if authorities believed the aircraft was likely to crash into a high-value target, including the Azrieli buildings or Ben Gurion Airport.

Co-pilot under investigation in UAE

Al-Hammami is currently in the United Arab Emirates, where he is undergoing a second round of questioning after initially being interrogated by Saudi authorities following the aircraft’s emergency landing.

Israel has sent representatives to the UAE to participate in the investigation.

According to The Jerusalem Post, investigators found that Al-Hammami had researched airlines operating flights to Israel and had visited the country months before the cockpit incident.

“I tried to get hired by all the airlines,” he reportedly told investigators. “I checked which ones flew to Tel Aviv. That’s why I chose flydubai. I planned [the operation] even before I was hired.”

The reports have also raised questions over how Al-Hammami was able to operate a flight to Israel despite concerns about his background. Israel and Oman do not have diplomatic relations, and reports have said that pilots operating flights to Israel are required to hold passports from countries with which Israel maintains diplomatic relations.

The case has also brought scrutiny on Israel’s Mossad and Shin Bet over the vetting process surrounding foreign airline crew members operating flights to the country.

Govt reschedules GST Council meet to 8 October citing ‘unavoidable circumstances’

Govt reschedules GST Council meet to 8 October citing ‘unavoidable circumstances’

The 57th meeting of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council, originally scheduled for October 7, has been postponed to October 8 due to “unavoidable circumstances”, according to an Office Memorandum issued by the GST Council Secretariat on Monday. The meeting will be held from 11 am onwards at the Summit Room, Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi.

The memorandum, dated October 5, was issued with the approval of the Revenue Secretary, who is also the ex-officio Secretary to the GST Council. The Secretariat has requested that the change in schedule be brought to the attention of members of the GST Council.

The Council, chaired by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and comprising state finance ministers, is set to meet after more than a year.

The 56th GST Council meeting was held on September 3-4, 2025, during which the Centre and states decided on a major restructuring of Goods and Services Tax (GST) rates and slabs.

Effective September 22, 2025, GST was changed to a two-tier structure of 5% and 18%, with a highest 40% rate for ultra-luxury and sin goods. This replaced the four slabs of 5%, 12%, 18% and 28% that had been in place since July 1, 2017.

Schneider Electric to buy US software firm PTC in $22.6 billion deal

Schneider Electric to buy US software firm PTC in $22.6 billion deal

France’s Schneider Electric struck its biggest deal ever on Monday, agreeing to buy US software company PTC for around $22.6 billion as it builds up its data centre business amid booming demand.

However, the French engineering company’s shares fell nearly 10% in early Paris trading as investors weighed the size of the acquisition, the big premium offered for the shares and the outlook for software companies’ valuations amid AI-related market uncertainty.

Up to Friday’s close, Schneider’s shares were up 29%​ year-to-date, before Monday’s losses wiped off close to €15 billion ($17 billion) from its market capitalisation.

“AI disruption fears are still weighing on software valuations, which allows acquiring PTC at a decade low valuation but could still weigh on Schneider post deal,” Jefferies said in a note to investors.

Berenberg analyst Nay Soe Naing told Reuters the deal presented a healthy valuation amid a compressed valuation environment and challenging investor sentiment across the software space.

PTC shares jumped 34.4% in US premarket trading.

BACKBONE OF DATA CENTRE BUILD-UP

Schneider, once known primarily for industrial components like fuses and circuit breakers, now builds the backbone of data centres, supplying everything from cooling units and server racks to critical power distribution equipment.

The PTC acquisition would expand its industrial software and AI business by adding the Boston-based company’s product-design and lifecycle-management software to its offering.

Schneider CEO Olivier Blum told investors that PTC’s engineering and design data would strengthen Schneider’s ability to deploy AI across customers’ industrial operations.

“Data is becoming a very critical layer” for extracting value from AI, as the technology requires closer links between data and the software used to contextualise it, Blum said in the conference call.

The combination would lift Schneider’s software-as-a-service revenue to about 24% of group total, accelerating its push beyond electrical equipment and automation into higher-growth, recurring-revenue software, he added.

Booming demand for data centres, particularly from the US, is driving Schneider’s earnings, offering a growing source of revenue that is helping it offset weakness in some traditional electrical-equipment markets.

PTC, which provides software solutions for designing, manufacturing and servicing products across multiple sectors, has also benefited from growing demand for its AI-powered tools.

Monday’s deal follows Schneider’s June agreement to buy Cognite Holding, a privately held provider of AI software and industrial data.

DEAL DETAILS

The transaction would be Schneider’s largest-ever acquisition and one of the biggest in Europe this year, according to LSEG data.

It would be financed through an issuance of new shares worth €5 billion to €6 billion under an existing shareholder authorisation, and new debt of €16 billion to €17 billion.

The $205-per-share offer implies an enterprise value of $23.7 billion for PTC and represents a 42.3% premium to its last closing price.

France’s third-highest-valued listed company expects the deal to generate €250 million in annual run-rate cost savings by the third year after closing, alongside about €800 million in revenue synergies.

The acquisition is expected to close by the third quarter of 2027, subject to approvals from PTC shareholders and regulators.

Vidyut Jammwal holds his breath for 15 minutes at Street Fighter event, shares message for youngsters: ‘Ek baar ruk jao’

Vidyut Jammwal holds his breath for 15 minutes at Street Fighter event, shares message for youngsters: ‘Ek baar ruk jao’

Vidyut Jammwal left the audience stunned at a special Street Fighter event in Mumbai after holding his breath for 15 minutes while meditating on stage. The actor, who is making his Hollywood debut as Dhalsim in the upcoming film, used the event to demonstrate the yogic practices that connect him with his character.

In Street Fighter, Vidyut plays Dhalsim, the popular gaming character whose abilities are associated with yoga. The actor’s background in Kalaripayattu, the ancient Indian martial art, also connects closely with the physical and spiritual aspects of the character.

Vidyut Jammwal meditates for 15 minutes on stage

During the event, Vidyut sat in meditation alongside cosplayers dressed as Dhalsim. He remained still on stage for 15 minutes while holding his breath, giving the audience a glimpse of the discipline behind his yogic practice.

After completing the meditation, Vidyut explained that he used a special technique from the Patanjali Yoga Sutra. According to the actor, the practice has helped him achieve several milestones in his life, and he also teaches the technique to youngsters.

Vidyut explained that the larger idea behind the practice is patience. Instead of constantly chasing results, he believes people should learn to stop, remain still and understand that achieving something meaningful can take time.

Addressing the younger generation at the event, Vidyut said, “Main apni younger generation ko ek baat bolna chata hu, ruk jao thoda sa. ‘How do you get it?’ I don’t know how I got it, because I stood still.”

Speaking about the constant rush to achieve more, he continued, “Hum dekh rahe sab log bhag rahe hai, yeh karna hai, voh karna hai, yeh karna hai, voh karna hai, kuch nahi karna hai; ek baar tham jao, ek baar ruk jao.”

He added, “That skill will really really take you very far. This is what I can tell you, thank you for witnessing this.”

Vidyut Jammwal makes Hollywood debut with Street Fighter

Street Fighter marks Vidyut Jammwal’s Hollywood debut, with the actor stepping into the role of Dhalsim. His casting brings his years of experience in martial arts and physical training to a character known for his mastery of yoga.

The Paramount Pictures release is scheduled to hit theatres across India on October 16, 2026. The film will be released in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.

“My skin feels dry…” 5 NG habits adults often fall into 🫧|のりたま │ 大人美容手帖

“I feel like my skin is drier than before.”

“My foundation doesn’t go on smoothly. 🥲”

“I’m doing my skincare properly, but it still feels flaky…”

When that happens, wait a second before buying a new serum!

One way to start is by reviewing your daily skincare habits. ☺️

This time, I’ve summarized 5 habits you should review when you’re concerned about adult dryness. ♡

1. Not sealing it in.

“I applied toner after my bath, so my beauty routine for today is done!”

……Are you doing this?

Applying toner is important, but if you’re worried about dryness, combining it with milky lotion or cream is also an option.

The level of moisture you need changes depending on your skin condition and the season.

🌷 What you can do first

✔ If toner alone leaves you dry, try milky lotion or cream
✔ Adjust the amount between morning and night
✔ If you don’t like stickiness, start with something light

The point is not to “apply as much as possible,” but to find the amount that is just right for your skin.

⸻

2. Washing your face with hot water

Hot water on a cold day feels like,

“Ahhh, I’m coming back to life! ♨️”

However, when washing your face, it’s recommended to avoid water that is too hot and use lukewarm water instead.

🌷 The motto for adult beauty

“A comfortable temperature” and “a skin-friendly temperature” are different things

⸻

3. Scrubbing while cleansing or washing your face

When removing makeup, are you putting too much force into it, thinking, “I have to get it all off!”?

However, you want to avoid rubbing more than necessary when cleansing or washing your face.

🌷 Things to be conscious of

✔ Do not rub your skin hard
✔ Lather your face wash thoroughly
✔ Do not scrub when wiping with a towel

Don’t scrape your skin before you remove the dirt.

⸻

4. Leaving it alone after a bath

Some people feel their skin dries out easily after a bath, so you want to get into the habit of moisturizing as soon as possible.
However, it’s a no-go when you’re still sweating!
Your precious beauty ingredients will just come off with the sweat.

Wait until your body heat has cooled down before moisturizing.

If you can’t stand not moisturizing right away, it’s a good idea to quickly spray on a mist-type moisturizer.

After that,
the order is toner → serum → milky lotion → cream.

⸻

5. Changing your skincare every time you see it on social media

This is also a common occurrence in adult beauty.
You can’t judge for yourself which one is good, and while you’re searching on social media, a mountain of products appears 💦

“This serum seems good ♡” → Purchase 💸

“This one is popular too!” → Purchase 💸

“Wait, this cream too…” → Purchase again 💸

Before you know it, your bathroom sink is a disaster 😇

Of course, trying new products isn’t bad in itself.

But if you keep changing them before you see any results, it becomes hard to judge what actually suits you.

First,

starting by “using what you currently have with care” is enough.

⸻

🌸 Summary

You don’t have to change everything at once ♡

Start with just one of these five.

🫧 Things you can do starting today

□ Use lukewarm water for face washing
□ Don’t scrub
□ Moisturize quickly after a bath
□ Consider milky lotion or cream if toner alone leaves you dry
□ Don’t change your skincare too often

It’s okay if you can’t do everything.

Beauty isn’t a test,
so you don’t have to get a perfect score ☺️

⸻

💕 If you’re worried about dryness, “review” before you “add”

When it comes to beauty,

“I’ll buy a new serum!”

“I’ll use a more expensive cream!”

is how we tend to think.

But actually, before that,

review whether you’ve been careless with your current care.

Just doing that might change your daily beauty routine a little.

And when you do incorporate something new,

don’t choose it because “everyone else is using it,”
but choose it by asking, “Do I need this right now?”

“My foundation doesn’t go on smoothly. 🥲”

“I’m doing my skincare properly, but it still feels flaky…”

When that happens, wait a second before buying a new serum!

One way to start is by reviewing your daily skincare habits. ☺️

This time, I’ve summarized 5 habits you should review when you’re concerned about adult dryness. ♡

1. Not sealing it in.

“I applied toner after my bath, so my beauty routine for today is done!”

……Are you doing this?

Applying toner is important, but if you’re worried about dryness, combining it with milky lotion or cream is also an option.

The level of moisture you need changes depending on your skin condition and the season.

🌷 What you can do first

✔ If toner alone leaves you dry, try milky lotion or cream
✔ Adjust the amount between morning and night
✔ If you don’t like stickiness, start with something light

The point is not to “apply as much as possible,” but to find the amount that is just right for your skin.

2. Washing your face with hot water

Hot water on a cold day feels like,

“Ahhh, I’m coming back to life! ♨️”

However, when washing your face, it’s recommended to avoid water that is too hot and use lukewarm water instead.

🌷 The motto for adult beauty

“A comfortable temperature” and “a skin-friendly temperature” are different things

⸻

3. Scrubbing while cleansing or washing your face

When removing makeup, are you putting too much force into it, thinking, “I have to get it all off!”?

However, you want to avoid rubbing more than necessary when cleansing or washing your face.

🌷 Things to be conscious of

✔ Do not rub your skin hard
✔ Lather your face wash thoroughly
✔ Do not scrub when wiping with a towel

Don’t scrape your skin before you remove the dirt.

4. Leaving it alone after a bath

Some people feel their skin dries out easily after a bath, so you want to get into the habit of moisturizing as soon as possible.
However, it’s a no-go when you’re still sweating!
Your precious beauty ingredients will just come off with the sweat.

Wait until your body heat has cooled down before moisturizing.

If you can’t stand not moisturizing right away, it’s a good idea to quickly spray on a mist-type moisturizer.

After that,
the order is toner → serum → milky lotion → cream.

5. Changing your skincare every time you see it on social media

This is also a common occurrence in adult beauty.
You can’t judge for yourself which one is good, and while you’re searching on social media, a mountain of products appears 💦

“This serum seems good ♡” → Purchase 💸

“This one is popular too!” → Purchase 💸

“Wait, this cream too…” → Purchase again 💸

Before you know it, your bathroom sink is a disaster 😇

Of course, trying new products isn’t bad in itself.

But if you keep changing them before you see any results, it becomes hard to judge what actually suits you.

First,

starting by “using what you currently have with care” is enough.

⸻

🌸 Summary

You don’t have to change everything at once ♡

Start with just one of these five.

🫧 Things you can do starting today

□ Use lukewarm water for face washing
□ Don’t scrub
□ Moisturize quickly after a bath
□ Consider milky lotion or cream if toner alone leaves you dry
□ Don’t change your skincare too often

It’s okay if you can’t do everything.

Beauty isn’t a test,
so you don’t have to get a perfect score ☺️

⸻

💕 If you’re worried about dryness, “review” before you “add”

When it comes to beauty,

“I’ll buy a new serum!”

“I’ll use a more expensive cream!”

is how we tend to think.

But actually, before that,

review whether you’ve been careless with your current care.

Just doing that might change your daily beauty routine a little.

And when you do incorporate something new,

don’t choose it because “everyone else is using it,”
but choose it by asking, “Do I need this right now?”
