Defend sanctity of 'Framework Agreement' at any cost: NSCN-IM to its members
NNPGs is a conglomerate of several other rebel groups.
On the 10th anniversary of the Framework Agreement that was signed between Centre and NSCN-IM in New Delhi in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the outfit's chairman Q Tuccu said the pact's political significance lay in the fact that the government of India recognised the Nagas' sovereign rights.
'…we have the courage and pride to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Framework Agreement and send the message across that we are not going to give up what has been achieved, effected on this day 3rd August, 2015 to reclaim our rightful place with sovereign right as a nation,' Tuccu said in his speech.
'Though the government of India is going slow under various pretexts, we've waited with our enduring commitment to stand by Framework Agreement, overcoming numerous challenges,' he said.

While in power AIADMK surrendered T.N.'s autonomy by backing Centre's policies: Stalin
DMK president and Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Sunday charged the AIADMK with having 'surrendered' Tamil Nadu's autonomy during its previous rule by supporting the Centre's policies such as the NEET and the UDAY scheme. He accused AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami of 'betraying' the people of Tamil Nadu by aligning with the BJP. In a letter to his party cadre, Mr. Stalin alleged that the BJP-led government at the Centre allocated meagre funding to Tamil, the first language in India to be recognised as a Classical Language, while allocating several crores of rupees for Sanskrit. 'Through the National Education Policy, 2020, the Centre attempts to impose Hindi. The scientifically established cultural glory of Tamils, based on the findings of the Keeladi excavation, is being deliberately withheld by the Union Government,' he said. Mr. Stalin urged the cadre to honour the legacy of DMK patriarch and former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi by participating in a tribute rally on August 7, the latter's death anniversary, towards his memorial at Marina beach in Chennai and to pledge their commitment to securing victory in the 2026 Assembly election. Recalling Karunanidhi's initiatives for the uplift of the poor and society as a whole, he said: 'Carrying forward his legacy, our Dravidian Model government has implemented schemes such as the Kalaignar Magalir Urimai Thittam, Naan Mudhalvan, Pudhumai Penn, Makkalai Thedi Maruthuvam, and Innuyir Kappom. Several States across the country have followed our initiative.'

Centre unsure of T's Khelo India & Olympic bids
Hyderabad: Chief minister A Revanth Reddy is keen for Telangana to host the 2026 Khelo India games; however, the Centre has informed Parliament that it is currently unable to confirm the feasibility of this proposal. It also clarified that Telangana's Olympic bid falls under the authority of the Indian Olympic Association (IOA). In a reply to Congress MP Kiran Kumar Reddy, the sports ministry said, "To conduct the Khelo India games, the ministry designates a state as the host. Selection is based on the availability of essential resources, such as sports infrastructure, adequate hotel accommodation, smooth physical connectivity to the venues of different events, and various other technical requirements. Therefore, it is not possible at this stage to decide whether Telangana will be a host state for the future Khelo India Games. " Regarding Telangana's bid to host the Olympics, the ministry explained that the Olympic games in India are the responsibility of the IOA, and the allocation of hosting rights is made by the International olympic committee (IOC) through a detailed host selection process, which is publicly available.

These include the construction of a multipurpose sports complex (stadium), an all-weather swimming pool in Yadadri Bhuvanagiri district, and a synthetic 400m, 8-lane athletic track in the same district. Other proposals include an 8-lane synthetic athletic track with fencing, seating, and washrooms at Palamuru University campus, Mahabubnagar; a multipurpose hall at Satavahana University, Karimnagar.
