A police team from the Kalapani Outpost (OP) recovered more than 10,000 suspected Yaba tablets during an operation conducted on Saturday, November 22, in the South Salmara-Mankachar district.

Meghalaya: On the third anniversary of the Mukroh murders, HYC seeks justice.

On November 22, 2022, the Assam Forest Protection Force fired on villagers in Mukroh, West Jaintia Hills, Meghalaya, killing six people, including five Meghalaya residents and one Assam forest guard. The incident occurred along the disputed Assam-Meghalaya interstate border, raising tensions between the two states. Following the violence, the governments of Assam and Meghalaya decided in 2023 to request the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) take over the probe, aiming for a fair and impartial inquiry, as internal judicial commissions had made little progress. The two states have signed agreements to resolve some border disputes but continue to face challenges in completing investigations due to witness non-cooperation. The Hynñiewtrep Youth Council (HYC) has repeatedly called for justice, accountability, and an expedited independent probe, condemning the deaths as a “mindless and inhumane act” and urging efforts to prevent future violence by resolving the border dispute. As of the third anniversary in November 2025, the investigation remains prolonged and unsatisfactory, with families still awaiting justice.​

Tejas Crash: Defense Expert Says G-Force May Cause a Blackout.

On November 21, 2025, during the Dubai Airshow held at Al Maktoum International Airport, a HAL Tejas Light Combat Aircraft of the Indian Air Force crashed and was destroyed after losing control while performing a complex aerobatic maneuver in front of international delegates and spectators. The aircraft was executing a negative G-force turn or roll at an extremely low altitude and failed to maintain its angle of attack, resulting in a steep vertical nose-dive. The Tejas slammed into an open area near the runway and erupted into a massive fireball, killing the pilot, Wing Commander Namansh Syal. Emergency teams responded quickly, and all flight operations were temporarily suspended. A court of inquiry has been ordered to investigate the cause of the accident. No immediate technical or mechanical reasons have been publicly disclosed, and the investigation is ongoing. This incident marks the second accident and first fatality in the 23-year history of the Tejas program.​

Sonowal claims that the government has invested Rs 1,000 crore to modernize Northeast waterways in Assam.

Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal announced that Assam’s river jetties and terminals in Pandu, Jogighopa, Dhubri, Bogibeel, Karimganj, and Badarpur have become major centres of cross-border trade, driving economic growth through efficient inland water transport. Speaking at the North East Oil and Gas Conclave 2025, he said these waterways are now moving petroleum products and heavy industrial cargo to Bangladesh and neighbouring regions, significantly cutting transport time and costs. Sonowal noted that cargo movement on the Brahmaputra’s National Waterway-2 has reached nearly six lakh tonnes annually, aided by improved navigation systems and faster turnaround times. Citing successful over-dimensional cargo deliveries to the Numaligarh Refinery, he emphasised that inland waterways are transforming Northeast India’s energy supply chain. The minister added that the central government has invested over ₹1,000 crore in developing the region’s waterway infrastructure, with 76 national waterways expected to be operational by 2027.
