BJP’s infiltration pitch fails to make a dent in Jharkhand; Himanta, who led campaign, says ‘deeply painful, fought with a vision’ | Political Pulse News

Hemant Soren is set to return as Jharkhand chief minister after the INDIA bloc, powered by his Jharkhand Mukti Morcha, took the lead in 56 of 81 Assembly constituencies in the state. With counting still underway until 7 pm, the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party seems set to win 21 seats – four less than the last assembly election. With a vote share of 33.26 per cent in the 68 seats it contested, it managed to win only one tribal reserved seat. With its allies AJSU leading in one seat out of the 10 it contested, and the LJP (Ramvilas) leading in the only seat where it fought, the NDA is set to get 23 seats. One of the most notable setbacks was faced by AJSU party chief Sudesh Mahato, who lost from Silli. Other key defeats were Sita Soren from Jamtara; Sunil Soren from Dumka; Madhu Koda’s wife Geeta Koda from Jagannathpur; and Seema Munda, former Union Minister Arjun Munda’s wife, from Potka. For the BJP, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma, the Jharkhand election in-charge, …

Arsenal’s Premier League Title Hopes Suffer Yet Another Dent After 1-0 Defeat To Newcastle

Arsenal’s Premier League Title Hopes Suffer Yet Another Dent After 1-0 Defeat To Newcastle

Newcastle put a huge dent in Arsenal’s title aspirations on Saturday, winning 1-0 to give leaders Manchester City the chance to move eight points clear of the Gunners at the top of the Premier League. Alexander Isak scored what proved to be the winning goal in the 12th minute, heading home Anthony Gordon‘s pinpoint cross from the right. Arsenal struggled to get out of first gear and although they dominated possession, they produced just one shot on target in the entire game. Mikel Arteta‘s men have now picked up just one point in their past three games as their title push quickly runs out of steam. If defending champions City win at Bournemouth later on Saturday they will be eight points clear of the Gunners. Liverpool, a point behind City, host Brighton at Anfield. Arsenal have pushed Pep Guardiola’s City hard in each of the past two seasons and appeared to be well-equipped for another title challenge but the gap already looks alarmingly big. The injury-hit visitors started brightly in the opening seconds …

IndiGo Flight Tailstrike Leaves Huge Dent During Take-Off, Plane Returns To Airport

The IndiGo aircraft involved in the tailstrike incident in Bengaluru New Delhi: An IndiGo aircraft suffered damage in the tail section after it hit the runway while taking off from Delhi airport, sources said. The IndiGo flight No. 6E 6054 was scheduled to fly to Bengaluru when the incident happened on September 9, sources said. Visuals of the damage to the tail section show several white dents on the blue paint of the aircraft skin, indicating a serious tailstrike. A tailstrike happens when the tail of an aircraft touches the runway during takeoff or landing. This can be dangerous as it can lead to structural damage, especially to the rear pressure bulkhead, the cone-shaped area in an aircraft’s tail that seals the pressurised cabin. The pilot immediately informed the air traffic controller (ATC) about the matter, after which the ATC gave clearance to land. The aircraft landed safely, sources said. No one was injured. The regulator Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and the Delhi airport authorities are investigating the incident, sources said. The DGCA …

Jailed Engineer Rashid stirs up Baramulla fray, may dent Sajad Lone base, give Omar a leg-up | Political Pulse News

When jailed Kashmir leader Sheikh Abdul Rashid filed his nomination from the Baramulla Lok Sabha constituency in North Kashmir Monday, he became the third leader from Kupwara district to join the fray there, after Jammu and Kashmir Peoples Conference (JKPC) chief Sajad Lone and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate Fayaz Ahmad Mir. The National Conference (NC)’s vice-president and former chief minister Omar Abdullah is also contesting from Baramulla. The support bases of Sajad, Fayaz and Rashid, who is popularly known as Engineer Rashid, are mainly centred on Kupwara district, where they would be vying from the same vote pie. This would give an edge to Omar not only on account of his appeal as an ex-CM but also due to the point that the NC has a cadre base spread across the Valley. Besides Kupwara, the Baramulla constituency encompasses the Assembly segments of three other districts – Baramulla, Bandipora and Budgam. Although Engineer Rashid, 58, is the founder of the Awami-e-Ittihad Party (AIP), he would fight the polls as an Independent as his party is …

IPL 2024 Points Table, Orange Cap, Purple Cap: Delhi Capitals Dent Mumbai Indians’ Playoff Chances Further, Go Level With Chennai Super Kings

Rishabh Pant virtually sealed his spot as India’s first choice wicketkeeper for the T20 World Cup with a belligerent unbeaten half-century in Delhi Capitals’ narrow four-run win over Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League at Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday. Skipper Pant and Axar Patel forged a blistering stand of 113 runs off 68 balls en route to quickfire individual half-centuries to power DC to 224 for 4 in their must-win game. In reply, Sai Sudarshan (65 off 29 ) and David Miller (55 off 23) scored fifties, while Rashid Khan hit a 11-ball 21 not out but still couldn’t take GT over the line, finishing at 220 for 8 in their 20 overs. The win helped DC jump two spots in the points table to reach the number 6 spot. Meanwhile, Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians slipped a place each to move to the 7th and 8th positions, respectively. Rest of the table remained unchanged. Here is the updated IPL 2024 points table – Virat Kohli continues to hold the Orange Cap by …

Villarreal Dent Champions Real Madrid’s Title Hopes

Real Madrid blew a chance to ramp up the pressure on La Liga leaders Barcelona in the title race as they fell 2-1 at Villarreal in a disjointed display on Saturday. Yeremy Pino and Gerard Moreno‘s strikes either side of Karim Benzema‘s penalty were enough to give the hosts a sixth consecutive victory across all competitions and dent the Spanish champions’ bid to retain the trophy. Madrid remain level on points with league leaders Barcelona, who face Atletico Madrid on Sunday, and this season the country’s two giants seem destined to tussle over the title themselves. Carlo Ancelotti’s side caught up with Barcelona last weekend after Xavi‘s team drew with Espanyol in the Catalan derby, but Madrid have not started 2023 particularly well. Madrid’s slim Spanish Cup victory over fourth-tier opponents Cacereno was followed by this bruising wake-up call at the renovated and newly reopened Estadio de la Ceramica, their second league defeat. Ancelotti selected a Madrid starting line-up without a Spanish player in it for the first time in the club’s history, according to …

The storms battering California won’t make a big dent in its drought

A deluge of storms is dumping serious amounts of rain across notoriously dry California. Even so, this week’s downpours are still nowhere near enough to pull the state out of its intense years-long drought. A bomb cyclone is working its way across the state today, flooding homes and roads and knocking out power for hundreds of thousands of residents. Officials warned it could be the worst storm to crash into California in years — even though it’s just one in a series of storms to pass through in the span of a couple weeks. It all comes on the heels of a long dry stretch for the Golden State. 2022 marked the end of the driest three-year period for the state on record. But in a dramatic shift, California rang in 2023 with wet weather — with more on the way over the next week or so. 2022 marked the end of the driest three-year period for the state on record — but in a dramatic shift, California rang in 2023 with wet weather The …
