Why J&K’s Top Cop is Launching a Manhunt to Decimate the Lethal Synergy Between Pakistan-Based Gangsters and India’s Narcotic Networks

3 min readSrinagarUpdated: May 15, 2026 11:57 AM IST In its efforts to counter narco-terrorism, the J&K Police arrested 806 people in 724 cases under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act over the past month, said DGP Nalin Prabhat. More than 600 kg of narcotics have also been seized in this time period. Prabhat also issued a stern warning to Pakistan-based gangster Shahzad Bhatti, who he said was involved in pumping narcotics into India. “A warning to Pakistan-based Shahzad Bhatti, who is ISI’s acolyte and partner in pumping narcotics into India: We will hunt and hound you and your associates, and decimate your evil infrastructure,” the DGP said. He further said that Jammu and Kashmir ranked first in the country with 240 detentions under the Prevention of Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1988 (PITNDPS Act) in 2025. With the completion of the first month of the “Nasha Mukt J&K Abhiyaan (Drugs-free J&K movement)”, the DGP detailed the efforts of the J&K Police in combating narco-terrorism in the Union Territory. …

J&K’s pride Auqib Nabi impresses on return but he should follow Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Anshul Kamboj example

J&K’s pride Auqib Nabi impresses on return but he should follow Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Anshul Kamboj example

Auqib Nabi returned to the Delhi Capitals Playing XI against Punjab Kings, and boy was he fantastic. However, the fact that the match was played in Dharamsala helped him a lot. The pitch was doing a lot for fast bowlers, and Auqib made the most of it. It was exactly the kind of wicket that propelled him to national stardom in the Ranji Trophy. All he had to do was bowl a Test-match line, and he did exactly that. Auqib Nabi not only impressed with his bowling, he also took a nice catch. (AP) Also Read: Harbhajan Singh throws his weight behind Jasprit Bumrah, faults ‘other bowlers’ in Mumbai Indians for not doing enough In his previous three matches, he was taken to the cleaners at an economy rate of 13.43. For a bowler who has been tipped to be the next big thing in Indian bowling, that was a big disappointment. But on Monday night, the 29-year-old set several things to rights. It was gladdening to see him go past the bats of Priyansh …

How Ranji winning J&K’s Dishant Yagnik turned KKR into sharp catchers & ‘Bombaywallah’ Angkrish Raghuvanshi into stumper

How Ranji winning J&K’s Dishant Yagnik turned KKR into sharp catchers & ‘Bombaywallah’ Angkrish Raghuvanshi into stumper

3 min readMay 10, 2026 05:49 PM IST His stumping of Pathum Nissanka, off the bowling of Anukul Roy, ended Delhi’s hopes of beating Kolkata Knight Riders. But ‘Starboy’ Angkrish Raghuvanshi is now encouraged to carry on as wicketkeeper, after the franchise undertook a project to turn him into a stumper last September. Coach Abhishek Nayar was always convinced of the batting talent of the young Mumbaikar. But last September, he would sound off fielding coach Dishant Yagnik, who was Rajasthan wicketkeeper and also in the IPL from 2011-2014. But he most notably helped Jammu and Kashmir, one of domestic cricket’s finest fielding units to win the Ranji Trophy, earlier in February. But even while steering the Ranji underdogs, Yagnik was told of KKR coach Nayar’s plans for the tall Angkrish. His fitness and flexibility workouts were marked out in preseason, and he even topped Nayar’s circuit test, an outdoor improvised Hyrox of sorts. After 10 quiet, uneventful games, though, Angkrish came good against DC. The youngster who completed 1000 runs, was marked out for …

Search intensifies for man feared fallen into stream in J&K’s Ramban after assault by cow vigilantes

The young man from J&K’s Ramban who was reported missing after he was attacked by cow vigilantes was still untraced on Tuesday (April 14, 2026), three days after the incident. J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has spoken out strongly against what he claimed was an attempt to subvert peace and urged the Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha, “to ensure stringent action”, saying “certain elements were trying to create a jungle raj”. “Certain elements, uncomfortable with peace, want to incite communal tension and unrest. We will act firmly against those trying to establish jungle raj here. As long as we are in power, such designs will not be allowed to succeed,” said Mr. Abdullah.

J&K’s Ranji Trophy triumph shows cricket in every nook and corner of India: Rahul Dravid | Cricket News

J&K’s Ranji Trophy triumph shows cricket in every nook and corner of India: Rahul Dravid | Cricket News

4 min readMumbaiMar 16, 2026 12:45 AM IST The story of Indian cricket’s phenomenal success has been about its expanding geography as much as its history-making, going deep into places where domestic cricket has spread its roots. So even as Rahul Dravid congratulated the five ICC title-winning teams – Women’s U19 and seniors in ODIs, and T20, Champions Trophy and U19 winning men’s teams, he reckoned the Cinderella story of the last year was Jammu & Kashmir winning the Ranji Trophy. “It’s a wonderful win for Jammu & Kashmir, though unfortunately it came against Karnataka, so I’m not too happy about that though I know you tried hard Rahul,” Dravid quipped to KL at the BCCI awards. But along with Vaibhav Suryavanshi emerging from Bihar, Dravid would credit BCCI for taking cricket into small cities, to every nook and corner of the country. Why Indian cricket seems to be bullish about itself is not just the five titles won across men and women, but the depth of talent outside these squads, with Varun Chakravarthy eloquently …

‘As World Cup moves to business end, most heart-warming story came from elsewhere’: Ravi Shastri hails J&K’s Ranji Trophy win | Cricket News

3 min readMar 3, 2026 03:29 PM IST Jammu and Kashmir made history last week by winning their first Ranji Trophy title. The final of the premier domestic first class tournament in India was drawn between J&K and the star-studded Karnataka, with the former winning on the basis of their first innings lead. Former India head coach Ravi Shastri said that this was the most heartwarming story to come out last week, putting it above the 2026 T20 World Cup moving into its final stages. “As the World Cup moves into the business end, with all eyes on the big stage… the most heart-warming story of last week came from elsewhere,” said Shastri in a lengthy post on his X account. “Jammu & Kashmir lifting the Ranji Trophy for the very first time. Let that sink in. What a journey. What a story. Paras Dogra, Ajay Sharma and this fearless bunch have taken the long road, knocking over heavyweights, game after game, with grit and self-belief.
