Customs officials seized 3.96 kg of 24 carat gold bars, valued at ₹5.8 crore, from a passenger arriving from Singapore after intelligence based surveillance led officers to uncover the gold concealed inside a specially designed compartment in his suitcase.
Preliminary investigations indicate that the accused was acting as a carrier for an international smuggling syndicate, with efforts underway to identify the local receiver and the kingpin behind the operation.
Kudos to the Customs officials for their vigilance, intelligence led action, and unwavering commitment to protecting India's economy from illicit trade.

Some seasons nourish more than the body, they nourish our traditions.
In my latest article for The Pioneer, "Sawan: The Sacred Flavours of the Monsoon," I explore how India's monsoon cuisine is deeply rooted in our culture, spirituality, seasonal wisdom and regional diversity.
From the sattvic foods of North India to the rich monsoon culinary traditions across Western, Eastern and Southern India, every dish reflects generations of knowledge that connects food with nature, health and devotion.
As we celebrate Sawan, let us also celebrate the culinary heritage that continues to bring families, communities and traditions together.

विपक्षी पार्टियों के नेता इथेनॉल E -20 par इतना विलाप कर रहे हैं मानो नेता ना हो कर केमिकल इंजीनियर हों |
इस मामले पर झूठी लाइम लाइट और मीडिया अटेंशन के लिए हर तरह का नेगेटिव अभियान चला रहे हैं |
जबकि इथेनॉल E 20 सिर्फ व्हीकल इंडस्ट्री ही नहीं बल्कि किसानों के लिए डेवलपमेंट क्रांति साबित होने वाला है |
क्योंकि जिस एथेनॉल की बात चल रही है यह किसानों की फसलों से निकल कर कुछ केमिकल चेंजेज होने के बाद मोटर गाड़ियों की पेट्रोल टैंक तक पहुंचने वाला है |
आज पेट्रोल के लिए जिन खड़ी देशों की तरह मजबूरी भरी निगाहों से देखना पड़ता है - E 20 के पूर्ण रूप से चलन में आने के बाद यह दवाब ना हो जाएगा |
अब विपक्ष को बस यही बात तड़पा रही है कि अगर किसान संपन्न हुआ और खाड़ी देशों पर निर्भरता खत्म हुई तो ऐसा न हो भारत की जनता हमेशा इसी सरकार की हो कर रह जाए |

E20 केवल एक ईंधन नहीं, बल्कि किसानों की आय बढ़ाने और भारत को ऊर्जा के क्षेत्र में आत्मनिर्भर बनाने की दिशा में एक महत्वपूर्ण कदम है।
इथेनॉल उत्पादन को बढ़ावा मिलने से गन्ना एवं अन्य कृषि फसलों के किसानों को नए अवसर मिलेंगे, आय के अतिरिक्त स्रोत विकसित होंगे और पर्यावरण संरक्षण को भी बल मिलेगा।
आदरणीय प्रधानमंत्री श्री नरेंद्र मोदी जी के नेतृत्व में केंद्र सरकार हर वर्ग के साथ कंधे से कंधा मिलाकर खड़ी है। किसान हित, ग्रामीण विकास और आत्मनिर्भर भारत के संकल्प को साकार करने के लिए निरंतर कार्य किया जा रहा है।
आइए, E20 को अपनाकर किसान सशक्त, पर्यावरण सुरक्षित और भारत को आत्मनिर्भर बनाने के संकल्प में सहभागी बनें।

जोधपुर की सुबह का अपना एक स्वाद है—गरमागरम प्याज़ की कचौरी और मिर्ची बड़ा।
राजस्थान के मारवाड़ क्षेत्र की खान-पान की परंपरा में इन दोनों का खास स्थान रहा है और समय के साथ ये जोधपुर के सबसे पहचाने जाने वाले नाश्तों में शामिल हो गए।
प्याज़ की कचौरी के लिए मैदा का आटा तैयार कर उसमें प्याज़, सौंफ, धनिया, लाल मिर्च, अमचूर और दूसरे मसालों की भरावन भरी जाती है और फिर धीमी आँच पर कुरकुरा होने तक तला जाता है। वहीं मिर्ची बड़ा बनाने के लिए बड़ी हरी मिर्च में मसालेदार आलू भरकर उसे बेसन के घोल में डुबोकर सुनहरा होने तक तला जाता है।
फिर साथ में इमली की खट्टी-मीठी चटनी या ठंडी छाछ... और जोधपुर की सुबह तैयार!
क्योंकि यहाँ यह सिर्फ़ नाश्ता नहीं, बल्कि जोधपुर की पहचान और मेहमाननवाज़ी का स्वाद है।

Also visited Delhi’s only cremation centre for small animals, and advised MCD to actively involve animal welfare organisations, dog lovers, veterinarians and subject experts so that their experience and knowledge help shape these initiatives in a sustainable and compassionate manner.
