Two days ahead of the Vice-President election, the ruling NDA and the Opposition INDIA bloc have started preparations to “train” their MPs on the voting procedure. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, other BJP Ministers and MPs participated in a two-day workshop, Sansad Karyashala, that began in New Delhi on Sunday (September 7, 2026). The INDIA bloc will hold a mock polling session for its MPs on Monday (September 8).

Carlos Alcaraz ended the reign of Jannik Sinner with a 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 win to claim the U.S. Open title on Sunday (September 7, 2025) and tighten his grip on the era-defining rivalry between the torch-bearers of the men’s game. In a perfect echo of the triumph that first propelled him to the number one spot in 2022, Alcaraz’s second New York title lifted him back to the top of the world rankings as the 22-year-old Spaniard displaced Sinner and took his Grand Slam trophy haul to six.
