#AsianGames: India's Women's 4x400m Relay team of #Kiran, #PoovammaMachettira, #Prachi, and #VithyaRamraj clinch the #GoldMedal with a time of 3:29.69, adding a sixth yellow metal to the country's tally and the first-ever in this category since the discipline's addition to the continental showpiece.
@RSSorg Chief @DrMohanBhagwat says, "Development is indeed taking place in our country, but it is not possible for everyone to develop at the same pace simultaneously. People might argue that in such a vast society, this is not even feasible; not everyone can exist at the same level of development. However, the gap between the highest and lowest levels of development should be kept to a minimum."

The Centre has no immediate plan to impose curbs on #SocialMedia accounts for individuals below 18 years of age.

Union Home Minister @AmitShah posts, "@narendramodi govt. is determined to shield its youth from the scourge of drugs. In a joint operation by #GujaratATS, Indian Coast Guard and Central intelligence agencies, 526 kg of #Methamphetamine and heroin have been seized from an Iranian boat in India’s EEZ, 160 NM northwest of Lakshadweep and 490 NM southwest of Mumbai. Five Pakistani nationals have been arrested, with further investigation underway to identify the wider network and its intended receivers. Upholding a stellar example of coordination and cooperation among agencies, the 16-day-long operation also seized an Iranian boat." @HMOIndia@NCRBHQ
Prime Minister @narendramodi says, "Another wonderful initiative has taken place in #Assam, an effort to save a tiny creature, the #PygmyHog. At one point, its very existence was under threat; That was when a conservation program was launched with just six Pygmy Hogs. They were subsequently reintroduced into the wild, and grasslands were restored to provide them with a suitable habitat. Today, thanks to this program, the Pygmy Hog population has risen to over 190." @PMOIndia@mannkibaat
Prime Minister @narendramodi says, "In 1026 AD, when the #SomnathTemple was destroyed by the forces of #Ghazni, the famous Sun Temple at #Modhera, also in #Gujarat, was attacked and demolished during that same year.
This means that the destruction of the Modhera temple also marks a 1000-year, even though the temple had been built just a year prior to that event. Facing such a massive invasion, where a major center of faith like the Somnath temple was desecrated, and attacks occurred across multiple locations, could easily have shattered the morale of any society or administration. However, #KingBhimdev I not only confronted Ghazni but also had the #ModheraSunTemple reconstructed within a short period." @PMOIndia@mannkibaat
Addressing the 138th Episode of #MannKiBaat, Prime Minister @narendramodi says, "A major #HistoricalAchievement of India is set to complete 10 years in just a day—the surgical strike. Ten years ago, on September 28–29, 2016, the #IndianArmy conducted a surgical strike on terrorist hideouts in #Pakistan. The world was astonished by the manner in which our brave soldiers crossed the Line of Control (#LoC) to take action against terrorism. The surgical strike boldly demonstrated a new example of India's counter-terrorism policy to the entire world. It served as our decisive response to the long-standing suffering India had endured due to terrorist attacks." @PMOIndia@narendramodi
