छठ महापर्व की पूर्णाहुति पर यही संदेश-हम उगते ही नहीं, डूबते सूरज की भी पूजा करते हैं. यही बिहार की आस्था है: जिनका अस्त है, उनका ही उदय है. अंधेरे के बाद उजाला, रात के बाद दिन-यही हमारी संस्कृति, यही हमारी परंपरा। #ChhathPuja 🌅🙏

Shocking lapse in #Delhi’s pollution monitoring -when AQI is at its worst, data from 28 out of 39 stations goes dark? If we can’t measure the crisis, how do we fix it? Accountability in air quality reporting is as urgent as clean air itself.

Once bitter rivals, CPI(ML) leaders who fought Shahabuddin’s muscle power -and lost their comrade Chandrashekhar Prasad to his men’s bullets -now share the stage with his son, Osama Shahab, under the RJD alliance in Siwan. Politics, it seems, makes strange comrades.

Chaos in Gaura-Bauram! 🤯 RJD’s Afzal Ali Khan got the ticket -then the seat went to VIP in a last-minute deal. But Khan refuses to step down, still campaigning as the Grand Alliance candidate, while VIP fields Santosh Sahani. Two alliance candidates, one seat. So, who’s the

After Giriraj Singh’s “namak haram” remark targeting Muslims, CM Nitish Kumar has appealed to the community -citing fencing of 8,000+ graveyards, identification of 1,273 more, and a 306× rise in the Minority Welfare budget to ₹1,080 crore. Is this damage control or genuine

As Bihar votes on Nov 6 & 11, nearly 1 in 5 voters is under 30 - a generation that’s only heard of the “jungle raj,” not lived it. The NDA now faces its toughest test yet: can it sell an old fear to new voters? #BiharElections

India’s outward remittances for overseas education fell 24% YoY to $0.32 bn in Aug 2025, the lowest August figure since 2017, a sharp dip at the start of the US academic season. Stricter visa rules, high costs & rupee weakness are reshaping how Indian families spend abroad.

In Bihar polls, NDA seems to be shifting gears -from social engineering to consolidating its core base. BJP has cut Yadav candidates from 16 (2020) to just 6, JD(U) from 18 to 8. Instead, the BJP bets on Kushwaha, Nishad & Vaishya candidates - signalling a new caste calculus.

At his first poll rally in Muzaffarpur, Nitish Kumar sparked fresh buzz about his health - insisting on garlanding a woman BJP candidate despite aides’ protests. The CM mispronounced names, read from notes, and quipped “you are a strange man” to his aide.

Looks like it’s not just the Mahagathbandhan that’s confused - the NDA is matching step for step! 😅 In Bihar’s Amour, JD(U) replaced Saba Zafar with Sabir Ali on Saturday, only to replace Sabir with Zafar again on Sunday. Candidate in. Candidate out. Candidate back in. 🎢

AQI in Delhi is already in the severe category. According to reports, NCR markets had certified green crackers (with QR codes and licence details) - but also banned conventional ones with fake green labels, fake QR codes, and plenty of polluting rockets and bombs. Seems the fight

After setbacks in the 2020 Assembly and 2024 LS polls, the NDA has redrawn its strategy for south Bihar’s Shahabad region (22 seats). In 2020, it won only 2 seats, and in 2024 lost all 4 LS seats here. Now, the NDA is relying on allies LJP(R) and RLM to regain OBC and SC support,
