  • Historic Step Towards Chhattisgarh’s Development: Chief Minister Shri Say

    Chief Minister Shri Vishnudev Say inaugurated the Raipur-Ambikapur-Bilaspur air service at Swami Vivekananda Airport today.

The launch of the Raipur-Ambikapur-Bilaspur air service symbolizes the expansion of our regional connectivity. The initial fare for this service is only ₹999, which ensures that the common people can also benefit from air travel.

    He said that this is a big example of the change that has come in the country under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji. He had said that even someone wearing slippers will ride an airplane, and today that dream is being realized. Air connectivity to remote areas like Sarguja and Bastar will not only provide facilities to the citizens but will also increase tourism and economic activities in these areas. The state government has developed Ambikapur airport at a cost of ₹80 crore.

    Maa Mahamaya Airport, Ambikapur has received a three C VFR category license. This airport is suitable for the operation of 72-seater ATR-72 aircraft.

    Chief Minister Shri Say said that work is also underway on a plan to connect Ambikapur with Varanasi, Prayagraj, Lucknow, Delhi, and Kolkata. Chhattisgarh has immense natural beauty, historical heritage, and eco-tourism potential. Places like Guru Ghasidas Tiger Reserve, Ramgarh hills, and Chitrakot waterfall, known as the Niagara of Asia, will now be easily accessible to tourists from India and abroad. Along with this, the expansion of air connectivity will also improve the investment environment. Our government has given special encouragement to enterprises like homestays and resorts in the new industrial policy, creating huge employment opportunities for local youth. We are trying to take Chhattisgarh to new heights in the aviation sector in the next four years.

    Chief Minister Shri Say said that the new year is coming, and I urge all of you to take advantage of this new air service and enjoy the natural beauty of Sarguja. Fly Big Charter Company will provide services to these cities through 19-seater Twin Otter aircraft.

    The aircraft takeoff was given a water salute. MP Shri Chintamani Maharaj, along with his wife, were the first passengers of the air service that commenced today.

  • IPL 2025: MS Dhoni Ready To Play? CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan Gives Huge Update | cricket news

    MS Dhoni has put to rest any doubts about his participation in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season, bringing relief to the Chennai Super Kings. The team wasted no time in confirming that their iconic captain will indeed be playing in the next season.

    “When he is ready, what else (do) we want. We are happy,” franchise CEO Kasi Viswanathan told Cricbuzz on Saturday. Viswanathan’s statement follows Dhoni’s recent remarks, where he expressed his eagerness to enjoy the remaining years of his cricketing career.

    “I just want to enjoy whatever last few years of cricket I am able to play,” Dhoni was quoted as saying to TOI. “When you play cricket like a professional sport, it becomes difficult to enjoy it just like a game. That’s what I want to do. It’s not easy. (‘I Want To Enjoy The Game’: MS Dhoni’s Big Reveal On His IPL 2025 Participation For CSK)

    “The emotions keep coming, the commitments are there. I want to enjoy the game for the next few years. I have to keep myself fit for nine months, so that I can play two and a half months of IPL. You need to plan it out, but at the same time chill a bit.”

    While Dhoni’s announcement was largely anticipated, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) officials had been waiting for a final confirmation from him, which they expected by October 28. Now that Dhoni’s intentions are clear, the franchise is set to finalize its player retention decisions. Viswanathan confirmed that Dhoni will soon speak with N Srinivasan, the franchise owner, to finalize the retained players list.

    Dhoni, who will be in the uncapped category, will impact the auction price by just INR 4 crore. Ravindra Jadeja is expected to be the top retention, followed by Ruturaj Gaikwad. Matheesha Pathirana, a key CSK player, is believed to have agreed to be the third retention, with his manager sealing the deal in Chennai last week. Among Shivam Dube, Devon Conway, and uncapped player Sameer Rizvi, two are likely to be retained.

    The final decisions will be confirmed after Dhoni’s upcoming discussion with Srinivasan, with Dhoni expected to return to Ranchi from Goa in the next few days.

  • Delhi BJP Chief Admitted To Hospital Days After Taking Dip In ‘Toxic’ Yamuna |

    Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva was admitted to the RML Nursing Home on Saturday with complaints of itching and breathing difficulties, two days after he took a dip in the heavily-polluted Yamuna to highlight the alleged failure of the AAP government to clean the river.

    On Thursday, Sachdeva took a dip in the Yamuna at the Chhath Ghat and slammed former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for his “failure” to fulfil his promise to clean the river by 2025.

    After taking the dip, Sachdeva faced skin rashes and slight discomfort in breathing for which he was examined at the RML Hospital where the doctors prescribed him medicines for three days.
    However, on Saturday morning, the BJP leader was admitted to the RML Nursing Home after he complained of itching and breathlessness.

    He doesn’t have any past history of similar problems, Delhi BJP media cell said in a statement.

    Wishing Sachdeva a speedy recovery, senior AAP leader and Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai said that BJP leaders should now realise that their “theatrics” will not clean the river.

    On Thursday, Sachdeva “apologised” to Yamuna for the AAP government’s “failure” in cleaning its water, promising to form a separate authority for its rejuvenation if the BJP wins the Assembly elections scheduled in Delhi next year.

    The politics over Yamuna intensified in Delhi after a layer of toxic froth appeared on the river surface due to heavy contents of pollutants, leading to a squabble between the ruling AAP and the opposition BJP.

    The war of words has become even more intense in view of the upcoming Chhath festival that is widely celebrated in Delhi-NCR by the Purvanchali people.

    Before the imposition of a ban, a large number of women used to gather along the banks of Yamuna during Chhath to worship the Sun god in knee-deep waters of the river.

    The AAP leaders have been claiming that the toxic froth in Yamuna at Kalindikunj has been caused by the release of millions of gallons of untreated industrial waste-water into the river from drains in Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, both BJP-ruled states.
