Congratulations @OilIndiaLimited !

An ocean of energy opportunities reinforced in the Andaman Sea!
Very happy to report the presence of natural gas in Sri Vijayapuram-3 an exploratory well drilled by Oil India Ltd. 15 km off the east coast of the Andaman Islands at a water depth of 355 meters.
Initial production testing of the well at the depth of 1900 plus meters in the Eocene formation has established the presence of natural gas through continuous flaring.
Oil India is carrying out gas sampling to assess the composition & calorific value of gas and to carry out isotope studies to understand the genesis of the gas.
Under the Samudra Manthan Mission (National Deep Water Exploration Mission) announced by Hon’ble PM @narendramodi Ji on Independence Day 2025, large number of deepwater & Ultra deepwater exploration wells are planned in our offshore basins to fully exploit our hydrocarbon reserves.
Presence of hydrocarbon is now reported in 2(Two) wells out of 3 (Three) exploratory wells drilled by OIL in current exploratory campaign off Andaman Basin.
This presence of natural gas will help us in taking forward our exploration ambitions in coordination with global deepwater exploration experts like @petrobras, @TotalEnergies, @bp_india, @Shell, @exxonmobil and will be a significant milestone in our journey through Amrit Kaal!

January 20, 1995: Sandeep, the 13-year-old son of a cement businessman, left for school in Delhi but never returned.

The family searched extensively but couldn’t find him. The next day, the businessman received a call stating that his son had been kidnapped, with a ransom demand of ₹30,000.

The kidnappers instructed him to leave the money in a bus near Loni flyover and warned him not to inform the police. The family informed the police anyway, and a case was registered at Gokulpuri Police Station.

During the investigation, a neighbour said the child was seen in an autorickshaw with a tall man locally known as “Masterji” for being a school martial arts instructor. Police traced him, he was Salim Khan, a martial arts instructor at Ramjas School, Daryaganj. He confessed and led the police to a drain in Mustafabad, where the child’s body was found.

In 1997, the Karkardooma Court sentenced him to life imprisonment. He appealed in the Delhi High Court and was granted interim bail in 2000, but he absconded. In 2011, the High Court upheld his sentence, but he remained at large.

For 26 years, he hid in places like Karnal and Ambala, working as a wardrobe maker. Around 2010, he moved to Loni in Ghaziabad and opened a women’s clothing store. He later became a social activist and YouTuber under a new name, Salim Wastik, an ex-Muslim known for calling out radical preachers in Islam.

He had little name and fame until last month, when he was stabbed multiple times at his Ghaziabad home by two brothers, Zeeshan and Gulfam, for allegedly blasphemous comments on the Prophet, an incident that suddenly brought Salim into mainstream discussion. He survived, gaining newfound fame and a “warrior” image.

During this media coverage, the victim boy’s family noticed his face and suspected that he was the same Salim who had killed their son. They informed the police. Preliminary investigations, including fingerprint analysis, matched. Today, Salim Khan alias Salim Wastik was arrested.

Incidents like these make you believe that the consequences of your actions are paid here, in this life itself. Hope he rots in jail for the rest of his life.

The opening of Chura Liya Hai begins not with a melody, but with a rhythmic clinking of two wine glasses - by the elegant Zeenat Aman, as if she's letting you in on a secret.

That's when R. D. Burman delivers his masterstroke - a spare A-minor guitar riff - as deep as the ocean.

And just as you're sinking into its spell, Asha Ji's voice coquettishly whispers the song into existence.

Funnily enough, this has become a dinner table trick in my family. Each time we are in a celebratory mood, I bring a metal spoon to a glass, and try replicating that famous clink - clumsily.

But here's the thing, everyone in the room recognizes the sequence - including my son, who was born decades after this song swept the country.

Chura Liya is 53 years old. It came out in 1973, barely 26 years after India's independence.

Yet, even if it were released today, the entire sequence - Zeenat Aman's grace, RD's magic, and Asha ji's vocals - would sound just as contemporary.

That's the genius of geniuses. They never grow old.

Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.

The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.

This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.

A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.

Received a call from President Trump and had a useful exchange of views on the situation in West Asia. India supports de-escalation and restoration of peace at the earliest. Ensuring that the Strait of Hormuz remains open, secure and accessible is essential for the whole world. We agreed to stay in touch regarding efforts towards peace and stability.

🚨The most dangerous idea in math isn’t 0.

It’s the fibonacci sequence: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144…

Because if this pattern is real, reality isn’t random.

And if reality isn’t random, neither are you.

I’ve explained it in this article.

But tell me:

Is it a coincidence… or code?

This is not needed.

Indian married women are protected under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 for any form of sexual abuse, coercion, or forced intimacy within marriage.

Creating a brand-new provision will only open the door to the kind of misuse we repeatedly see in divorce or custody battles, just as dowry laws, domestic-violence complaints, or unnatural sex allegations are weaponised during separation.

How is a husband expected to prove that a sexual act was consensual if, years later, after the relationship has soured, the wife retrospectively alleges rape? Consent within a marriage is inherently private, undocumented, and impossible to verify after time has passed. There are already too many provisions to harass a man during divorce proceedings. Don’t add one more.

From what I understand of Bihar politics, a major factor behind the RJD alliance’s rout was the reverse polarisation of non-Yadav Hindu voters.

Tejashwi Yadav tried to run a campaign about unemployment, jobs, and freebies, hoping to draw support across castes. But his ground-level cadre couldn’t stick to that script. Their chest-thumping about “Yadav Raj” and hostile comments toward other castes spread widely. I’m not even from Bihar, yet I saw multiple videos of RJD workers saying, “Bhumihar ko pel denge, Brahman ko maar denge, Kurmi-Vurmi koi nahi hai, yahan Yadav Raj chalega.”

Before social media, such loose talk might have stayed local. Today, every voter has a smartphone and these clips spread instantly. Naturally, this triggered reverse polarisation among non-Yadav voters.

Akshaya, 34, passed away from a brain hemorrhage on 18 Sept.

In his LinkedIn post, her father shared how, at every step, the ambulance, the police, the crematorium, and even the BBMP office, officials shamelessly extorted bribes from him while he was mourning his only child, and that too for services that are simply their duty.

Sadly, this seems to be the standard practice everywhere.
