A significant security lapse at the Moga Civil Hospital led to the theft of approximately 11,000 tablets, valued at over ₹7 lakh. Buprenorphine is a crucial drug in opioid de-addiction treatment but is often abused illegally. The theft occurred from a temporary store which reportedly lacked basic security measures like CCTV and guards. Police have started investigating the case, and Senior Medical Officer (SMO) Dr. Harinder Sood confirmed the loss. Health Department officials have ordered an internal inquiry to strengthen security and identify those responsible for the lapse.

Mansa district has officially reported 48 cases of chikungunya this year, notably surpassing the 36 dengue cases recorded. District Epidemiologist Dr. Santosh Bharti attributed the higher chikungunya count to increased surveillance and testing availability at Mansa and Budhlada Civil Hospitals. However, local residents dispute these figures, claiming the actual outbreak is far worse, with multiple patients in certain areas. Residents like Advocate Aneesh Jindal criticize the administration for neglecting sanitation, collapsed sewage, and scattered garbage, arguing that mosquito control measures are only being carried out by local organizations.

Patiala has emerged as Punjab's worst-affected district with 419 dengue cases, contributing significantly to the state's estimated total of 1,800 cases. Nabha (146 cases) and Bhadson (77 cases) were the hardest-hit areas, with local officials crediting an active house-to-house case-finding campaign for the high detection rate. While authorities released data for 12 districts (1,554 cases), state officials are hesitant to share full data. Meanwhile, Amritsar’s low count of 33 cases has raised concerns about testing protocol adherence. Patiala health teams claim to have destroyed larvae at 9,541 sites, 1.5 times more than last year.

UPI transactions witnessed a massive surge in October, crossing an average daily value of over ₹96,000 crore. This record-breaking usage is attributed primarily to the festive Diwali sales season and the roll-out of GST 2.0. In terms of volume, the average daily transactions reached 68 crore in October, marking a significant jump from 65.4 crore recorded in September. The figures underscore the rapidly increasing adoption and reliance on the UPI platform for digital payments in India.

On the occasion of Bandi Chhor Diwas, Sri Akal Takht Sahib Acting Jathedar Giani Kuldip Singh Gargajj paid tribute to Maharaja Ranjit Singh by lighting desi ghee diyas at the historic Hawa Mahal in Rambagh, Amritsar. Jathedar Gargajj strongly criticized the Punjab Government for its "indifference," noting that the Hawa Mahal remained in complete darkness while nearby liquor outlets and clubs inside Rambagh were fully illuminated. He stated this lack of lighting shows the government's disrespect for Sikh sentiments and heritage, and called upon the Sikh community to take responsibility for illuminating the palace during future festivals.

The Ludhiana Fire Brigade received approximately 25 fire calls on Diwali night and the following morning, with most being minor incidents . The major incident involved a woollen waste warehouse in Star City Colony, where a firecracker spark ignited a massive blaze. It took four fire tenders over an hour to control the flames, which were intense enough to crack nearby house walls and cut power. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. Residents have demanded action against the warehouse owner for allegedly storing flammable materials in violation of norms.
