This Is How They Are Faring While Trying To Get Back On It By Dipak Dash, Neha Mishra   ·   The Times of India, New Delhi  ·  Page Page 6 TOI reporters visited approximately 600 houses across three Delhi constituencies — Kirari, Govindpuri, and Shalimar Bagh — to assess ground-level implementation of the Special Intensive Revision of the electoral roll, which has seen Delhi's registered voter count drop from 1.56 crore to 97.5 lakh. The reporting found patchy BLO coverage, landlords refusing to let tenants use rental addresses for voter registration, and migrant workers with no documents other than Aadhaar cards being effectively disenfranchised. The piece combines named resident testimonies, BLO interviews, and specific precinct-level vote-count data to expose structural gaps in what officials describe as a routin

A passing remark at a government health review meeting led Dipti Raut to tribal villages in Maharashtra's Nandurbar district. There, umbilical cords were being cut with blades fashioned from bamboo, with shaving blades and, in some cases, with arrowheads. Raut is Resident Editor of Divya Marathi, the Marathi edition of Dainik Bhaskar. She spent months travelling to remote villages for the story, meeting traditional male midwives and women who had given birth without trained health workers. The investigation won first prize at The Statesman Award for Rural Reporting 2025. The midwives she met had been conducting deliveries in villages where access to healthcare remained limited. "They showed me how bamboo was fashioned into a blade to cut the umbilical cord," she recalls. "As a mother, as a woman, I found it very painful. As a journalist, I felt that my story does not end here," she says. Raut set out to find women who had given birth this way. One woman

Veteran TV newsman Hugh Riminton has retired from nightly news, with Channel Ten airing a special tribute to its long-time reporter and anchor on Friday night. Riminton humbly called the segment an “overly indulgent use of eight minutes of prime time news” before going on to say his farewell on LinkedIn. “I have retired from daily news,” Riminton wrote. “My human heart is deeply touched by this on-air suprise farewell at TEN News Sydney. Thank you everyone. Thank you anyone who has ever watched any of my reports over nearly 50 years. Every part of that connection has been a privilege. But now, I'm tending tomatoes.” He also posted a farewell on X. “Yup, I’m done. My reporting career has gone from telegrams to the age of AI. It will only pace up from here, but that’s for the next generation. And they’re committed and bright. Good luck. Farewell.” The Sydney Morning Herald’s Peter FitzSimons asked Rimi

Coalition vows to slash migration as One Nation surges Opposition Leader Angus Taylor is set to unveil a plan to cut net overseas migration to about 100,000, tighten visa rules and link future intake levels to housing supply—positioning the Coalition as tougher than Labor while trying to blunt One Nation’s momentum. The move goes to the heart of the cost-of-living and housing debate, and will sharpen political lines on workforce needs, population growth and social cohesion.

Continue? co-founder Mark Serrels was nervous when he went to pick up the first copies of the video game magazine he launched with Jackson Ryan. Once he had it in his hands, the nerves faded. “It’s exactly what I wanted,” Serrels told Influencing. “I’m stoked with how it’s all turned out.”  Serrels later said it was a dream realised when he got his hands on the magazine, while Ryan shared that he couldn’t wipe the smile off his face when Serrels first brought him the printed copies.  “It was just really cool to finally see it in the flesh… I'm stoked and proud of us.” As Influencing has previously reported, Serrels and Ryan launched the Kickstarter-funded magazine in March in an attempt to "designate a new place for video game writing, criticism and discussion and to bring the video game community together." The pair had aimed for a launch to coincide with Melbourne International Games Week and PAX Australia, which takes place this week. Continue? will
