Nagaland is expected to experience rainfall until September 14.

“Nagaland will experience thunder, lightning, and light to moderate rainfall at a few places until September 14, 2025. However, districts including Chumoukedima, Kiphire, Kohima, Mokokchung, Phek, Shamator, Tuensang, Wokha, and Zunheboto are likely to receive heavy rain accompanied by thunderstorms.

Insurgent factions in Manipur have declared a complete shutdown on September 13 in opposition to Prime Minister Modi’s visit.

“The Coordination Committee (CorCom), an umbrella body of six insurgent groups in Manipur, has declared a total shutdown on September 13, 2025, to boycott Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the state. The shutdown will commence at 1:00 AM on September 13 and continue until the Prime Minister’s departure, with essential services such as emergency, medical, media, and religious functions exempted. CorCom accused the Indian government of attempting to incite ethnic violence and of diminishing Manipur’s political status since its annexation in 1949. The groups urged all ethnic communities to stay vigilant and promote peaceful coexistence while condemning the Indian government’s role in the 2023 communal conflict in Manipur. CorCom consists of six banned insurgent outfits advocating for Manipur’s pre-merger status restoration and secession from India.”

Amid violent protests, KP Sharma Oli, the prime minister of Nepal, resigns.

Nepal’s Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli resigned on Tuesday after days of violent unrest that left at least 19 people dead and saw protesters storm his office in Kathmandu and torch his private residence. The protests erupted in response to the government’s controversial social media ban, which was later revoked but failed to stem the anger. Demonstrators targeted government and party offices across the capital, prompting authorities to shut down Tribhuvan International Airport and reportedly issue a shoot-at-sight order. As security forces struggled to contain the escalating violence, India advised its citizens to avoid travel to Nepal and said it was closely tracking the crisis.

The first-ever photographic proof of the elusive Palla’s cat is found in Arunachal Pradesh.

A recent wildlife survey in Arunachal Pradesh has confirmed the first photographic record of the elusive Pallas’s cat in the eastern Himalayas, along with the highest known elevation records in India for several species, including the common leopard (4,600 masl), clouded leopard (4,650 masl), marbled cat (4,326 masl), Himalayan wood owl (4,194 masl), and grey-headed flying squirrel (4,506 masl). Conducted over eight months with camera traps in remote, high-altitude terrain, the study faced extreme weather, rugged landscapes, and logistical challenges, which were overcome with support from local guides and communities. Officials noted that these findings reaffirm Arunachal Pradesh’s status as a global biodiversity hotspot and underscore the need for continued investment in conservation and ecological monitoring.

After protests in Kathmandu claimed 19 lives, Nepal lifted its ban on social media apps.

Nepal has lifted its ban on 26 social media platforms, including Facebook and YouTube, after violent protests over the restriction left 19 people dead and more than 100 injured.
