Venezuelan Opposition Leader María Corina Machado Wins 2025 Nobel Peace Prize

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado has been awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for her unwavering efforts to restore democracy and uphold human rights in Venezuela. The Norwegian Nobel Committee praised Machado for her “peaceful struggle for democratic freedoms and political reform” amid years of authoritarian rule.

A former member of Venezuela’s National Assembly, Machado emerged as a leading figure of the democratic opposition, advocating non-violence and unity among political groups. Her leadership played a crucial role in steering Venezuela toward a peaceful transition to democracy after decades of political turmoil.

Machado dedicated the award to the Venezuelan people, saying it symbolizes “hope, courage, and the power of truth.” The international community has widely hailed her recognition as a victory for democracy in Latin America and an inspiration for peaceful political change worldwide.

Water Supply Restored in Upper Tadong After Leakage Repair at Gaire Goan; PHE Team Praised for Swift Action

The water supply to Upper Tadong, which had been disrupted due to a major leakage near a residential house at Gaire Goan, has been successfully restored. The issue arose after the house owner reported damage caused by the leakage, prompting officials to temporarily shut down the line to prevent further risk.

Speaking with PHE Secretary Shri Sailendra Sharma, he said that the Public Health Engineering (PHE) Department immediately took action, inspecting and repairing the damaged section early this morning. During the disruption, water was diverted to 5th Mile, Lumsey, and Daragoan to ensure continued service to nearby areas.

Residents have expressed gratitude to the PHE workers for their tireless efforts, working day and night to restore the supply, and to the department officials for their quick and responsible response.

The water supply to Upper Tadong will be resumed by today.

NH-10 Fully Open for Travellers; Tourists Welcome to Sikkim This Season

NH-10, the lifeline connecting Siliguri to Sikkim, is now open for travellers in both directions. Many tourists at NJP were reportedly confused about the route’s condition following recent disruptions.

We have verified and clarified that the highway is operational, though road damage near 29th Mile and Gelkhola continues to slow traffic. In these stretches, only small vehicles are being allowed through a single lane.

Despite these minor disruptions, travel to Sikkim remains smooth and safe. The tourism season is in full swing, and visitors are warmly welcomed across the state. All destinations in Sikkim are open to guests, except Lachen and Gurudongmar, where movement is currently restricted due to road and weather conditions.

Travellers are advised to plan their journeys with updated information, but overall, Sikkim is fully open and ready to host tourists for the festive and winter season ahead.
