New Delhi, Sep 1 : The Central Adoption Resource Authority (CARA), under the Ministry of Women and Child Development, Government of India, has launched the theme for Adoption Awareness 2026, reinforcing its commitment to promoting legal, safe, transparent and child-centric adoption across the country. The theme for Adoption Awareness 2026 is: Legal Adoption. Safe Childhood. Secure Future. Say No to Illegal Adoption! The theme was formally launched by Bhavna Saxena, CEO, CARA, during a Live Morning Show on DD National, marking the beginning of a sustained nationwide awareness initiative to promote legal adoption and prevent illegal adoption practices. During the programme, Bhavna Saxena, CEO, CARA, emphasised the importance of following the legal adoption process and said, Adoption is not a shortcutit is a sacred responsibility. Through CARA and the legally prescribed channels, we safeguard the dignity, rights and future of every orphaned, abandoned or surrendered child. Every child deserves a safe, loving and secure familynot secrecy, uncertainty or risk. CARA has been undertaking several measures to strengthen awareness, coordination and enforcement against illegal adoption practices, including enhanced coordination with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and the Ministry of Home Affairs. However, sustained awareness and capacity building at the State, district and community levels remain critical to ensuring that every child is protected and every adoption is carried out through the prescribed legal process. Year-Round Outreach to Promote Legal Adoption Under the theme Legal Adoption. Safe Childhood. Secure Future. Say No to Illegal Adoption, several outreach activities will be conducted throughout the year to create widespread awareness among citizens and key stakeholders. As part of the initiative, State/UT-level Adoption Awareness Workshops are being organised from September 2026 onwards, moving beyond the earlier approach of limiting adoption awareness activities to the month of November. These workshops will provide a platform for stakeholders to understand the statutory adoption process, strengthen inter-departmental coordination, identify and address illegal adoption practices, and reinforce the principle of the best interest of the child. The campaign will involve a wide range of stakeholders, including Women and Child Development Departments, Child Welfare Committees, District Child Protection Units, Specialised Adoption Agencies, Child Care Institutions, Police, Health Departments, Judiciary, Legal Services Authorities, hospitals and nursing homes, medical professionals, ASHA and ANM workers, civil society organisations, media and digital platforms, among others.

The workshop will focus on strengthening awareness regarding the legal adoption framework and the roles and responsibilities of stakeholders in ensuring that children in need of care and protection receive appropriate care, protection and rehabilitation through lawful mechanisms. The workshop will also emphasise the importance of timely reporting of children found separated from their guardians, lawful surrender procedures, declaration of children as legally free for adoption, and adherence to the prescribed adoption procedure. A Collective Responsibility to Protect Every Child The campaign seeks to ensure that prospective adoptive parents and the general public understand that adoption is a legal and child-centric processnot a private arrangement between individuals. Citizens are encouraged to follow only the legally prescribed adoption process through CARA and the designated authorities/agencies and to report suspected instances of illegal adoption to the competent authorities. Through sustained, year-round awareness and coordinated action, CARA aims to build a stronger ecosystem in which every childs dignity, identity, rights, safety and future are protected.

Swara Bhasker has revisited the controversy surrounding her 2018 open letter to filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali after watching Padmaavat. Years after the films release, Swara explained that the debate around her letter largely focused on one particular line, while the broader concerns she raised about women, sexual violence and the portrayal of jauhar received less attention. Speaking at an event hosted by the India International Centre (IIC) in Delhi, Swara recalled her reaction to the films climax. Padmaavat, starring Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor and Ranveer Singh, was released in January 2018 following months of controversy. Inspired by Malik Muhammad Jayasis 16th-century epic poem Padmavat, the film revolves around Rani Padmavati and the conflict between Rajput ruler Ratan Singh and Alauddin Khilji. Swara said the depiction of jauhar, in which hundreds of women collectively die by self-immolation, made her question the message being conveyed to survivors of sexual violence. Im watching this, these 800 women committing jauhar, and I was like, yaar, if I had been, God forbid, if I was a rape survivor, what is this film telling me? I would feel like a coward, that I didnt kill myself to save my honour. Is that what you want to tell in a society like ours, where I feel like theres anyway a rape epidemic? she said. She further questioned the connection between a womans life and the idea of sexual purity. Is this what we want to tell our survivors, that you didnt deserve to live? That if you actually had been honourable and brave women, you would have killed yourself. Are we saying that rape is the end of a womans life? she said. Swara also recalled being particularly disturbed by a close-up of a pregnant woman during the jauhar sequence. And then there was that one shot, it made me so mad, I was like, chiii, in the audience loudly. There is a close-up of a pregnant womans belly. And she is going, so youre saying that a foetus that might be female doesnt deserve to be born, because she might be raped by a Muslim ruler? she said. The actor clarified that she did not write her open letter immediately after watching the film. Instead, she waited five days to reflect on her response. And then I came out and I was like this is terrible. And normally people think that I do these things out of rage. But I waited for five days. And I was like, let me check if I still feel like this. And then at the end of five days, I wrote this letter, she recalled. Published by The Wire in January 2018, the letter questioned the glorification of jauhar and the portrayal of womens worth through sexual purity. Swara said the subsequent discussion, however, focused heavily on one phrase from the letter. I just want to say that when it got published, there was one line in the letter where I was trying to say that women are more than their private parts. And watching this film made me feel that Im reduced to a vagina, she said.

Auqib Nabi Joins Surrey To Play Three Matches In County Championship
Auqib Nabi: Uncapped Indian fast-bowler Auqib Nabi has joined the English County side Surrey to participate in three matches in the County Championship after his recent India call-up. The 29-year-old has been one of the emerging stars in Indian domestic cricket after his stellar Ranji Trophy campaign, during which he picked 60 wickets and helped Jammu and Kashmir lift their maiden title. Nabi will now be in action for Surrey in their upcoming three matches against Yorkshire, Sussex and Glamorgan. IANS had previously reported on August 28 about the possibility of Nabi joining Surrey on Sunday and playing in the County Championship. He will play in three matches for Surrey, starting with the game against Yorkshire on September 2 at The Oval. It is followed by games against Sussex and Glamorgan in Hove and The Oval on September 8 and 15, respectively. Yes, Auqib has got his visa for going to England, after all the paperwork was done. It is understood that he's expected to depart for England from New Delhi today. If all goes well, he may be available for the game starting on September 2. The main purpose of this stint is also for the Indian team management and selectors to check if Nabi can swing the ball well there in England, as the climate in New Zealand for the Test series will need for him to do that in conducive conditions with the red Kookaburra ball in hand, a source familiar with the development had told IANS on Sunday. The move comes after he received his maiden India call-up as a replacement for the injured Jasprit Bumrah for the recent Test series against Sri Lanka, although he did not make his debut as India went with two pacers in both matches. While Nabi will be in action in the English county cricket, he is expected to return in time for India A's matches against Australia A, which will start from September 22. On this short-term association, Auqib Nabi said: Its an honour to join Surrey, one of the best Clubs in England. Im looking forward to learning from the group and helping them for the next three matches. While Nabi will be in action in the English county cricket, he is expected to return in time for India A's matches against Australia A, which will start from September 22. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Nabi has been a star performer in the previous two Ranji trophies, having picked up 100 wickets across the two seasons. He also hogged the limelight when he picked four wickets in four balls for the North Zone in the Duleep Trophy in 2025. He was later signed by Delhi Capitals in 2026, where he played five matches for the franchise. Article Source: IANS

30 yrs of 'Monsoon Wedding': Mira Nair chose monsoon due to unexpected link to Zohran Mamdani
Highlights Mira Nair revealed the surprisingly personal reason she scheduled Monsoon Wedding during the monsoon. The timing was linked to her son Zohran Mamdanis school vacation. More than two decades later, Zohran is now the mayor of New York City. Twenty-five years after Monsoon Wedding became one of Mira Nair s most celebrated films, a small detail about its making has taken on a new significance. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter , Nair revealed that the films monsoon timing was not simply about wanting to capture the rainy season. It was also about making sure she could take her young son, Zohran Mamdani, with her. It was about Zohrans school holiday Nair explained that she chose the timing because the monsoon coincided with Zohrans school vacation, allowing her to take him along while she worked in Delhi. The film was shot over 30 days, with Nair and writer Sabrina Dhawan spending time in Delhi before filming to finalise locations and casting. The production eventually became known for its vivid use of rain, music and the energy of a Delhi wedding. But behind that visual identity was a practical decision made by a working mother trying to fit a major film around her childs school calendar. From the film set to New York City At the time, Zohran was simply Nairs young son accompanying her during the production. Today, he is known for a very different reason: he serves as New York Citys mayor. That makes Nairs throwaway explanation about the films timing unexpectedly fascinating in hindsight. The child whose school holiday helped shape the production schedule would go on to build a political career of his own. Monsoon Wedding premiered at the Venice Film Festival in 2001, where Nair won the Golden Lion, becoming the first female director to receive the award. The film went on to become both a critical and commercial success. The films anniversary now offers a chance to revisit not just its famous wedding chaos and darker family secrets, but also the small personal choices behind its making.

Bumrah, Rana, Washy Picked Subject To Fitness Clearance For Afghanistan T20Is
Afghanistan T20Is: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday announced India's squad for the upcoming three-match T20I series against Afghanistan to be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi from September 13. Fast bowlers Jasprit Bumrah and Harshit Rana and all-rounders Washington Sundar and Nitish Kumar Reddy have been picked, but the participation of all four players is subject to fitness clearance, the BCCI confirmed. Shreyas Iyer will keep leading the Men in Blue, while Tilak Varma remains his deputy. The squad features regulars Abhishek Sharma, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Shivam Dube, Arshdeep Singh and Varun Chakravarthy, while there have been some changes to the team that played in Zimbabwe in July. Sanju Samson returned to the side after not being picked for the Zimbabwe T20Is, while the bowling department has seen changes with regular speedsters returning. Arshdeep is joined by Bumrah and Harshit, as the likes of Prince Yadav, Yash Thakur, Ashok Sharma, and Mayank Yadav, all of whom were on the touring party for Zimbabwe, miss out. Contrary to reports, there is no place for Hardik Pandya. The biggest development is the return of Bumrah, who had suffered an impact injury during the England ODIs in July and has been out of action since then. He also missed the recent Test series against Sri Lanka, which India won 1-0.
