Two Stands At Vizag Stadium To Be Named After Mithali Raj, Ravi Kalpana
Andhra Pradesh Minister Nara Lokesh: Andhra Cricket Association (AC) has announced that two stands in the ACA-VDCA Vizag cricket stadium here would be dedicated to legendary Indian women cricketers Mithali Raj and Ravi Kalpana on October 12, aligning the unveiling with the India vs Australia ICC Womens Cricket World Cup fixture. The decision was fast-tracked following star batter Smriti Mandhanas request during the Breaking Boundaries fireside chat in August 2025 with Andhra Pradesh Minister Nara Lokesh, where she highlighted the absence of stadium stands named after leading Indian women cricketers, including at Visakhapatnam. She felt that the renaming of such stands would honour the contribution of women cricketers, while also spotlighting their contributions to the game. It would also inspire the next generation of women to enter cricket as a profession. Acting on Mandhanas appeal, Minister Nara Lokesh immediately consulted the Andhra Cricket Association, leading to a prompt resolution to honour womens cricket icons by naming stands after them at the Vizag venue, said an official statement on Monday. The ACA will inaugurate the Mithali Raj Stand and the Ravi Kalpana Stand on October 12, ahead of the India-Australia match, marking a first-of-its-kind tribute to women cricketers at the stadium. Smriti Mandhanas thoughtful suggestion captured a wider public sentiment. Translating that idea into immediate action reflects our collective commitment to gender parity and to acknowledging the trailblazers of womens cricket, said Minister Nara Lokesh. Smriti Mandhanas intervention at Breaking Boundaries, where leading cricketers discussed the stereotypes and barriers women face in sport, underscored how visible honours in major venues can elevate awareness and inspire participation across India.

NEW DELHI: Its literally a race to the finish. Narrowing down longlists is a time to spotlight books of the moment, books that matter, offering authors and their ideas a vital platform. Its also a period of excitement and goal-setting for us and our readers. The Ramnath Goenka Sahithya Samman (RNGSS) is named in honour of Ramnath Goenka, a doyen of the Indian print industry and the visionary behind The New Indian Express (TNIE) Group.

Shortlisted in the Fiction category are: Tales from the Dawn-Lit Mountains by Subi Taba (Penguin), a fresh voice from the Northeast portraying tribal life; Heart Lamp (Penguin) by International Booker winner Banu Mushtaq; and The Girl with the Seven Lives by Vikas Swarup (Simon & Schuster), an innovatively structured, kitschy thriller by the internationally bestselling author. Winners of the 2025 RNGSS will be selected from the shortlist in a jury meeting today. The jury is chaired by author and former diplomat Pavan Varma, with author Githa Hariharan and economist Sanjeev Sanyal, a member of the Prime Ministers Economic Advisory Council. The winners will be announced at the award ceremony in Delhi on 28 November.
ONGC to invest Rs 8,110 cr to develop 172 onshore wells in Andhra, gets green nod from EAC
HYDERABAD, Oct 6: Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC) is set to invest Rs 8,110 crore for onshore development and production of oil and gas from 172 wells in eight PML (production mining license) blocks in Andhra Pradesh.

Post US tariff, seafood exporters look to China, Japan but price gets a hit
NEW DELHI: India may get an alternative seafood market to countervail the impact of unilateral tariffs imposed by the US, but it will not receive a fair price for its exports. Analysis indicates that US consumers pay significantly more for Indian seafood, more than double the average price that China and Japan pay per kilogram. Traders are urging economic ministries to finalise a deal with the US before its too late. The US, previously Indias largest seafood market, valued at $7.38 billion (35% of exports), implemented a crushing 59.73% tariff on the Indian seafood sector, which eventually destroyed the seafood industry. As a succour to seafood producers and traders, PM Narendra Modi visited China and Japan after the unilateral tariff imposed by the US to get a market for its premier seafood. However, data shows that China and Japan alone cannot replace the US in terms of value, even though they are the top importers of seafood from India by volume. Export data from the Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA) for 2023-24 reveals that India exported 3.29 lakh tonnes of seafood to the US at approximately $7.74 per kilogram, while exports to China reached 4.52 lakh tonnes at around $3.07 per kilogram. Similarly, Japan imported around 1.07 lakh tonnes at around $3.70 per kilogram. A country that comes close to the US and offers a better price for seafood is Canada. But they import much less in quantity. It imported around 25,000 tonnes at a price of around $7.98/kg. Seafood exporters are facing a unique dilemma regarding the quality and quantity of their products. The U.S. is a premium market that typically imports larger, headless shrimp, while China, the second-largest market, primarily imports smaller shrimp (whole shrimp) at lower prices, said Gulrez Alam, Secretary of the Shrimp Feed Manufacturers Association. Over the period, India lost a major share of its prime market in the European Union. Andhra advocates for early Free Trade Agreement Andhra Pradesh, which contributes over 75% of Indias total seafood exports, advocates for early Free Trade Agreement with EU to save its industry. Reports suggest that the Andhra Pradesh government and seafood traders have written to the relevant central ministries to request relief similar to that provided during Covid-19.

Gouthams gambit: Kerala's 15-year-old making rapid moves up the chess ladder
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: When 15-year-old Goutham Krishna H decided to rub shoulders at the senior national level for the first time, his competitors included 21 chess players ranked above him. Unmindful of the odds, the international master (IM) from Thiruvananthapuram put up an impressive show of talent and grit to emerge as the first runner-up at the 62nd National Senior Chess Championship held recently in Andhra Pradesh. Goutham scored an impressive nine out of 11 points, narrowly missing the title on a tie-break. Had he won, Goutham would have become the youngest champion, a record currently held by grandmaster (GM) Akash Ganesan, and previously by Viswanathan Anand. In round nine, Goutham showcased an exceptional endgame, capitalising on a rare error by GM Abhijeet Gupta, a five-time Commonwealth and former national champion. Gouthams dedication and talent has also qualified him for more international tournaments. And, he wants to get better. I hope to join the ranks of Anand and Akash, who became senior national champions at the age of 16, said Goutham, a Class X student of Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, Kodunganoor. He currently has an International Chess Federation commonly referred to by its French acronym FIDE rating of 2407 and a GM norm under his belt. Two more GM norms and a rating above 2,500 would earn Goutham the title of grandmaster. In May, Goutham was in supreme form at the third International Chess Tournament in Kuwait. The prestigious event involved 329 players from across the globe, including 30 GMs. Despite being seeded 30th, Goutham demonstrated remarkable poise and panache, securing second place and a cheque for 9,000 US dollars. Goutham, who was crowned national champion in the under-12 category in 2012, displayed keen interest in chess from early childhood. He was initially trained by Anand J S. Later, Sreejith G S, a former chess player and FIDE-certified instructor became his his full-time mentor. Srinath Narayanan, a GM from Chennai, has also taken him under his wings. Unlike many others his age, Goutham is a regular school-going student and balances his passion for chess with his studies. However, he is on the lookout for a sponsor who would fund his training as well as expenses to participate in international events, said Sreejith, who has mentored many young players. Gouthams father Hari is an architect with the public works department and mother Simitha is employed in a private firm. His elder brother Dev Shankar, a former chess player, recently completed his higher studies in Canada.
