State

In a significant administrative move during the peak of the state’s electoral process, the Central Government has granted a six-month service extension to West Bengal’s Director General of Police (DGP), Siddh Nath Gupta. The 1992-batch IPS officer, who was originally slated to retire on April 30, 2026, will now continue to lead the state’s police force until the end of October.

South Bengal is under a high-alert weather watch as the IMD confirms heatwave conditions will persist until at least April 25. With western districts already crossing 43°C and Kolkata’s humidity making the heat feel more intense, residents and voters heading to the polls this week are facing extreme discomfort. While the south burns, North Bengal prepares for thunderstorms, highlighting a stark weather divide across the state during this critical election season.
