Saikhom Mirabai Chanu Returns Stronger, Lifts Gold at Commonwealth Championships

Olympic silver medallist Mirabai Chanu made a powerful comeback on August 25, clinching gold in the women’s 48kg category at the Commonwealth Championships.

She lifted a total of 193kg (84kg sn**ch, 109kg clean & jerk), setting new Commonwealth Championship records across all three categories. Despite returning after a year-long injury break and managing only three successful lifts out of six, Chanu’s determination and strength shone through.

The 31-year-old’s latest triumph not only adds to her decorated career but also serves as an inspiration to athletes worldwide, reaffirming her as a symbol of resilience ahead of the World Championships and Paris Olympics.

Guwahati, August 26: A Parliamentary Standing Committee on Commerce has urged the Central Government to take immediate measures to safeguard the Indian tea industry, particularly Assam, which is reeling under pressure from rising imports.

In its 194th report, the panel flagged that subsidies and incentives offered by countries like Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and Kenya have made their teas more competitive, leading to an alarming rise in imports. BJP MLA Mrinal Saikia warned that Assam is witnessing a 45% surge in Kenyan tea imports, leaving warehouses overstocked and pushing down auction prices.

Saikia highlighted the plight of 1.33 lakh Small Tea Growers in Assam, who produce more than 55% of the state’s tea and support nearly one million livelihoods. With raw green leaf prices dropping to as low as ₹12–14 per kg, growers fear further decline if imports continue unchecked.

The Tea Board of India has already introduced safeguards, including mandatory labeling of imported teas, blending restrictions with GI-tagged teas, and strict FSSAI compliance checks. However, the Committee also recommended a review of the Indo-Nepal trade agreement, pointing out that Nepalese teas enter India duty-free while Indian exports face high tariffs.

Calling the situation critical, the panel suggested a revival package for shut-down tea gardens and formation of an impartial body to assess the sector’s health.

The recommendations aim to ensure fair competition, protect Assam’s heritage tea industry, and secure the livelihoods of thousands dependent on it.

“Tribeny Rai’s Shape of Momo Takes Sikkim to the Global Stage with Selections at Busan and San Sebastián”

Gangtok, Sikkim – Filmmaker Tribeny Rai is making waves in world cinema with her debut feature Shape of Momo, which has been officially selected for the prestigious Vision Section of the 2025 Busan International Film Festival (BIFF), one of Asia’s most celebrated platforms for bold and independent storytelling.

The film, set in the Himalayas, tells the story of Bishnu, a young woman navigating tradition, family, and conscience in a matriarchal household scarred by loss. Played by Gaumaya Gurung, Bishnu’s journey reflects resilience and identity rooted in Sikkimese culture.

An Indo-Korean collaboration produced by Dalley Khorsani Production, Kathkala Films, and Aizoa Pictures, Shape of Momo will also screen at the San Sebastián International Film Festival in Spain this September, extending its global reach.

With selections at two internationally acclaimed festivals, Tribeny Rai emerges as a powerful new voice in independent cinema, placing Sikkim firmly on the global cultural map and inspiring filmmakers across the region.

🔴 A heartbreaking incident was reported at Gauhati Medical College and Hospital (GMCH), Assam’s premier government hospital, where a newborn lost its life and two other infants sustained injuries after falling from an ICU bed.

According to hospital sources, the incident occurred in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), where multiple newborns were placed on the same bed due to overcrowding. Preliminary reports suggest that while the mothers had briefly stepped aside, the infants accidentally slipped and fell from the bed.

The injured babies were immediately given medical attention and are under observation. However, one of the newborns could not be saved.

The incident has sparked public outrage and demands for accountability, with several organizations calling for a thorough probe into hospital safety protocols. Parents and guardians have alleged negligence on the part of hospital staff, highlighting the lack of adequate infrastructure and proper monitoring in critical care units.

Hospital authorities have stated that an internal inquiry committee has been formed to investigate the circumstances leading to the fall. Assam’s Health Department has also sought a detailed report, and steps are expected to be taken to prevent such tragedies in the future.

This incident has once again raised questions about overcrowding, shortage of staff, and patient safety in Assam’s largest healthcare institution, which caters to thousands of patients from across the state and the Northeast.
