monitor political opponents and place thousands in punitive detention. The ACLU says some detainees have been transferred to prisons in countries with which they have no connection. The report comes ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, which will determine control of Congress for the remainder of Trump’s term. Leading Democrats have warned that the president and his allies could attempt to interfere with ballots or election outcomes. According to the ACLU, expanding government resources and enforcement powers increases the risk of abuse. The report examines Homeland Security

W 330 Georgetown Square

ASHINGTON, DC – The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) released a 139-page report Tuesday, Oct. 6, criticizing President Donald Trump’s mass deportation agenda and warning that its consequences extend beyond immigration enforcement. The organization says the administration has used deportations to expand presidential power and weaken constitutional protections. Its report identifies 76 actions that allegedly threaten civil liberties and democracy, including efforts to silence journalists,

incidents, including the fatal shootings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good in Minneapolis. It also highlights practices such as using license plate readers to track people nationwide. The report groups its findings into three categories: 25 alleged attacks on civil liberties, 40 on government institutions and 11 on pluralistic democracy, including society’s tolerance of minorities. The ACLU recommends immigration reform, limits on aggressive Homeland Security tactics and stronger oversight of government authorities, including the White House. It argues that transparency and accountability are essential to protecting constitutional rights and democratic institutions.

ASHINGTON, DC - Indianorigin Democratic Representative Pramila Jayapal has defended Microsoft after the Trump administration suspended the company from a green card sponsorship program, prompting Vice President JD Vance to accuse her of backing cheap foreign labor for corporations.

D.C., by October 1, surpassing 2025’s total of 2,289. Utah and South Carolina also reported outbreaks. Pennsylvania reported five measles-associated deaths, compared with two listed federally, prompting a dispute between Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Governor Josh Shapiro.

46,818 Dancers SetCertiﬁcates Guinness Travel World Record at Vadodara Garba At-Home Pickup COVID-19 Positive? We test for variants

ADODARA, INDIA – More than 46,800 participants gathered in Vadodara, Gujarat, on October 7 to perform Garba and set a Guinness World Record during a pre-Navratri celebration organized by United Way of Baroda and Vadodara Municipal Corporation. The event, titled Developed India Sankalp Garba, took place at the United Way Garba Ground. Guinness World Records adjudicators verified 46,818 participants, surpassing organizers’ target of 30,000. Dressed in colourful traditional costumes, men and women performed synchronized circular movements to veteran folk singer Atul Purohit’s song “Aavi Nav Nav Raatri Re.” The gathering celebrated Gujarat’s heritage while promoting women’s empowerment, cleanliness and development. The celebration highlighted three themes: Swachh Bharat, Nari Shakti

A Guinness World Records adjudicator verified the attendance and presented the certificate to municipal authorities. Officials said citizens would be able to access it through the civic body’s website. Purohit, popularly known as Atul Dada, dedicated the achievement to the people and praised their energy and enthusiasm. Participants also pledged to support Swachh Vadodara. The Nari Shakti segment highlighted women’s strength and contributions to society. Organizers described the gathering as both a cultural celebration and a message about civic responsibility, social empowerment and Gujarat’s development. By bringing tens of thousands together through traditional dance, the event connected community participation with local pride and the wider vision of a developed India. Residents and visitors joined the celebration, turning the pre-festival gathering into a major occasion for the city and its cultural calendar.

Organizers said the unexpectedly large turnout helped establish the record by a margin. Gujarat Deputy Chief Minister Harsh Sanghavi welcomed the participation, sharing photographs and videos on X. He said nearly 50,000 people had joined the event and wrote, “From tradition to World Record, when Gujarat dances, India celebrates.”

giving independent operators a more affordable path to forecourt modernization

NEWARK, NJ – National Retail Solutions (NRS), through its NRS Petro division, and Bennett Pump Company today announced a national pricing program designed to give independent fuel retailers a more affordable path to upgrading their forecourts. The program follows the companies’ July announcement, which brought Bennett dispenser support to the NRS Petro point-of-sale platform. The program provides independent retailers with nationally available pricing on Bennett fuel dispensing equipment combined with NRS Petro technology, including EZ PUMP payment at the dispenser. Operators who prefer Bennett factory payment equipment can choose that option as well. The program was built specifically for independent operators, who face far different economics than large chains and branded stations when replacing aging equipment or investing in new forecourt technology. “Everything we do at NRS is about helping independent retailers compete, and this program is no exception,” said Elie Y. Katz, President & CEO of National Retail Solutions. “Independent fuel retailers should have access to modern forecourt technology at pricing that makes sense for their business. Working with Bennett allows us to approach the entire site differently. Instead of looking at the dispenser,

payment technology, and point of sale as separate investments, we can create a much more competitive modernization strategy for the independent retailer.” “NRS gives independent fuel retailers another choice when it comes to building a reliable, costeffective forecourt. The company brings an established POS platform serving tens of thousands of locations nationwide. NRS is a solution that is practical, flexible, and designed specifically with the independent fuel retailer in mind,” said Paul Stone, National Accounts Manager, Bennett Pump Company.

MUMBAI – Anushka Sharma recalled receiving blunt advice from filmmaker Aditya Chopra early in her career, saying the experience left her crying. Speaking on ‘Koffee With Karan’, the actress said Chopra praised her talent but told her she was not particularly good-looking and would need to work hard for her role as Taani in ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’. Anushka said she had considered herself very attractive. She said the remark shocked her because she believed makeup and hairstyling could make her look beautiful. She recalled thanking Chopra before leaving, then stopping the car when she realised she was crying. With her parents away, she called her mother and expressed disbelief over what had happened. The actress also spoke about facing several rejections before landing the role opposite Shah Rukh Khan in the 2008 film. Anushka said her perspective changed when she first saw herself on a monitor during filming, dressed as a bride. Looking at the footage, she felt Chopra’s assessment was right and reconsidered her confidence about her appearance.

WHAT TO ORDER NOW

three ways. First, find the sellouts. Run single-day reports for the last days before the holiday. An item with strong sales that falls to zero before Diwali ran out, and it deserves a larger order. Second, account for the calendar. Last year’s Diwali fell on a Monday. A Sunday festival gives families a full weekend to shop and host, so expect heavier traffic on Friday and Saturday.

Diaspora Leaders Meet Sripriya Ranganathan in New York NEW YORK, NY - Indian diaspora leaders met Sripriya Ranganathan, Secretary (CPV & OIA) in India’s Ministry of External Affairs, to discuss consular services, property disputes and ways to strengthen engagement with overseas Indians. Jaipur Foot USA Chairman Prem Bhandari joined Ankur Vaidya, Chairman of FIA (NY-NJCT-NE); Ajay Patel, President of BRUHUD New York Seniors; and Alok Kumar, FIA Trustee, for the detailed meeting. India’s Consul General in New York, Ambassador Binaya Srikanta Pradhan, was also present. Ranganathan’s extensive US outreach covers New York, Texas, San Francisco and Seattle. The visit seeks to understand challenges facing overseas Indians, hear community concerns and gather suggestions for the forthcoming Pravasi Bharatiya Divas (PBD). The Indian consulate in New York also organized separate meetings with leaders of major community organizations, allowing a broad cross-section of Indian Americans to share their views. At other stops, Ranganathan has engaged with diaspora representatives, professionals and community stakeholders. Bhandari praised her willingness to listen, describing

the outreach as exceptional in his nearly four decades in the United States. He expressed appreciation for her patience, accessibility and efforts to understand the diaspora’s practical difficulties. During the meeting, he sought simpler and more consistent passport renewal and reissue procedures, improvements in VFS and consular services, and action against unauthorized agents and middlemen who exploit applicants. He also highlighted the illegal occupation of properties and land belonging to non-resident Indians in India. Overseas owners, he said, often struggle to safeguard

The organization also called on police to swiftly identify and take action against those responsible.

ISKCON Naperville Celebrates Janmashtami with Sacred Tulabharam CHICAGO, IL - The ISKCON Radha Shyamasundar Temple of Naperville brought devotion, generosity, and celebration together at its second annual Janmashtami Tulabharam Fundraiser, held at Ashton Place, 341 75th Street, Willowbrook, Illinois. Hundreds of devotees, families, and supporters gathered to help build a lasting spiritual home for future generations. The evening opened with the conch and maha-mantra chanting led by Dayal Mukunda Prabhu and the temple’s kirtan team. Gopal Haridas Prabhu recalled Srila Prabhupada’s journey to America in 1965, reminding guests how faith and determination can transform seemingly impossible dreams into reality. Temple president Premananda Mataji traced the congregation’s progress from purchasing land in 2010 to completing the second construction phase in eighteen months. She described the project as the emerging eternal home of Sri Sri Radha Shyamasundar, built through the community’s collective devotion. Fundraising chairman Sanatan Prem Prabhu, Sandeep Patel, outlined the next construction phases, including the garbhagriha, gopurams, shikharas, tulsi room, and classrooms, estimated at $3 million.

Bhajans, silent reflection, and community remarks emphasized Gandhi’s enduring ideals. Speakers recalled freedom fighters, encouraged younger generations to connect with their heritage, and urged participants to practice truth, nonviolence, and service daily. In his address, Goyal also honored Lal Bahadur Shastri, whose birth anniversary falls on October 2. He emphasized Gandhi’s concern for marginalized people

and reflected on visiting Chicago’s Fullerton Hall, where Swami Vivekananda addressed the World’s Parliament of Religions in 1893. Goyal described the diaspora as a bridge between India and the United States, encouraging loyalty to their adopted country while preserving affection for their motherland. He also reaffirmed India’s commitment to assisting Indians facing crises abroad. Dr. Kumar presented MAFS Colors 2026 to Goyal and India’s newly arrived Consul General in Chicago, Dr. Anand Prakash. She highlighted hard work, sincerity, and the diaspora’s enduring

connection with India. As attendees shared tea and refreshments, the gathering reaffirmed the statue’s role as a place of belonging and learning, twentytwo years after its installation. Suresh Bodiwala, chairman and founder of Asian Media USA and a Foundation trustee, reflected on the memorial’s continuity and the community’s commitment to Gandhi’s values. He praised Goyal’s presence, Dr. Kumar’s lifelong service, and Skokie’s steadfast support. The morning concluded with a renewed resolve to carry Gandhi’s message beyond annual remembrance, making truth, nonviolence, and service without discrimination part of everyday life for generations to come.

ASA’s small car-sized Pe r s e v e r a n c e Ma r s rover has driven farther than any vehicle ever has on the surface of another world. On October 11, the rover’s odometer reached 28.10 miles or 45.22 kilometers, the agency says. That eclipsed the record of 28.06 miles or 45.16 kilometers set by NASA’s Opportunity rover, which explored Mars from 2004 to 2018. What took Opportunity nearly 15 years to accomplish was achieved by Perseverance in about five years. NASA said much of the credit belongs to Perseverance’s selfdriving capability. It uses an autonomous navigation system known as AutoNav, and images the terrain while rolling, builds a 3D map of hazards, and plots its course between waypoints selected by rover planners on Earth. The Perseverance team calls this ability “thinking while driving.” The six-wheeled rover has driven more than 90% of its total distance using AutoNav to evaluate the terrain, compared with about 5% for the first Martian AutoNav system on Opportunity and its twin, Spirit. “It is an honor to be working on Perseverance at a moment when the technology has evolved to the point that drives like these are routine,” said Steven Lee, the project manager of the Curiosity and Perseverance rovers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California. “The original mission called for no more than 12.4 miles of driving. We’ve blown well past that, and with all mobility systems fully operational and favorable extended-ground-life test results, we expect Perseverance to keep adding to this record for many years to come.” In the nearly three decades of rovers on Mars, there has been steady progress in how much distance they cover. The agency said the microwave-oven-size Sojourner rover covered about 330 feet (100 meters) during its 83-sol mission in 1997. That was followed by the golf-cart-size twins Spirit and Opportunity arrived in 2004 with 90-sol prime missions. Sol is a Martian day which is 1.0275 Earth days or 24 hours, 39 minutes, and 35.24 seconds. Spirit logged 4.8 miles (7.7 kilometers) before succumbing to the Martian winter in 2010. Opportunity kept rolling for 5,111 sols, completing the first
