Will clear all hurdles to revive, boost Punjab's rural sports: CM
Ludhiana: Announcing the revival of traditional rural sports in Punjab that were dying due to legal restrictions, chief minister Bhagwant Singh Mann Tuesday promised and assured that his govt will remove all legal hurdles to promote and preserve the state's glorious sports heritage. Addressing a gathering at a function organised by sports lovers to thank Mann for paving the way for the revival of bullcok cart races in the state, the CM said, "Bullock cart races are not just a source of entertainment, but represent the rich cultural heritage of rural Punjab. Such races were held in the state since ancient times and served as a living connection to our traditions and cultural identity. Guru Nanak Dev, the first Sikh Guru, also practised farming with bullocks during his time in Kartarpur Sahib. " Mann said the ban on bullock cart races had not only disheartened lovers of traditional sports, but had also dealt a blow to the state's heritage. There was a growing clamour from Punjabis to bring a new law so that these traditional games could be brought back to life. So, on July 11, the historic 'Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Punjab Amendment) Bill, 2025' was passed unanimously in the Punjab assembly, he told the gathering. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The CM said this law will not only help preserve indigenous animal breeds of Punjab, but will also eventually lead to the revival of bullock cart races. He said the law now awaits the consent of the President of India, after which the races can be officially conducted again. Speaking about the new legislation, Mann explained that its primary objective is to ensure safety measures for animals participating in sports, including veterinary supervision, safety standards, registration and documentation, and penalties for violations — so that no cruelty is inflicted upon voiceless animals. The CM also announced that the govt will explore possibilities of reviving pigeon flying competitions as well. Referring to the sports festival held at Kila Raipur village, he said the games which began in 1933 are popularly known as "Mini Olympics" or "Rural Olympics". Mann said these games have received international recognition, having been covered by BBC, Discovery Channel, and others, adding that even past presidents of the country have attended these games in the past. Thanking the public for their overwhelming support to the govt's war against drugs, the CM emphasised that drug abuse is not limited to one house or district but affects the entire state. He said many young people in Punjab have fallen prey to drugs, adding those who laid the pyres of youth are the real enemies of society and they will not be spared at any cost. Mann claimed that those "affluent leaders" who were behind the "genocide of youth" have already been put behind bars, and the drive to demolish the houses of drug smugglers with bulldozers will continue in the coming days too. Mann questioned former CM Capt Amarinder Singh for "showing concern" for the human rights of the "kingpin" of the entire drug trade currently lodged in Nabha jail, and asked why such concern was never shown for the people of Punjab. On irrigation, the CM said when he assumed office, only 21% of agricultural land across the state was irrigated using canal water, but today it has risen to 63%. Uninterrupted electricity is also being provided for paddy cultivation. For the first time, farmers are switching off their tube wells due to surplus water availability, he added.

Expedition Bigfoot Season 7: Release date rumors, cast updates and what to expect next
By Aman Shukla Published on July 28, 2025, 19:00 IST Last updated July 28, 2025, 12:04 IST Man, Expedition Bigfoot never fails to get the heart racing, does it? Season 6, which dropped on Discovery Channel back in January 2025, had us all on edge with those creepy nighttime howls and hints of Bigfoot nests. Now, with the finale leaving fans hungry for more, everyone's itching to know what's next. Let's dig into the latest chatter about Season 7's release date, who's coming back, and what wild stuff the team might tackle in their hunt for the big, furry legend. Release Date Rumors: When Will Expedition Bigfoot Season 7 Hit Screens? Alright, let's get real—nobody's got an official date for Season 7 yet. Discovery Channel's keeping us in suspense, but the show's track record gives some hints. Check this out: Season 4 hit screens in April 2023. Season 5 rolled out on August 14, 2024, with the U.K. getting it a month later. Season 6 kicked off January 22, 2025, with episodes like 'A Predator Calls' airing as late as March 5. So, what's the pattern? New seasons tend to drop every 8 to 16 months. Doing the math, Season 7 might land anywhere from August 2025 to March 2026. Late summer or early spring feels like a safe bet. Could it switch to Travel Channel again? Maybe. Keep an eye on Discovery's socials or Max for the big announcement. Until then, it's all about crossing fingers and rewatching old episodes! Cast Updates: Who's Returning for Expedition Bigfoot Season 7? The Expedition Bigfoot crew is what makes this show pop. Their mix of brains, guts, and straight-up obsession with Bigfoot keeps us hooked. Based on Seasons 5 and 6, here's who's probably strapping on their hiking boots again: Bryce Johnson : This guy's the glue of the team. Actor, Bigfoot nerd, and totally hooked since he saw the Patterson-Gimlin film as a kid. He's the one rallying everyone to keep searching, no matter how sketchy the woods get. : This guy's the glue of the team.

Dr. Mireya Mayor : Primatologist, explorer, and basically a real-life action hero. Her science chops make every footprint or weird hair sample way more legit. Plus, she's got stories for days. : Primatologist, explorer, and basically a real-life action hero. Her science chops make every footprint or weird hair sample way more legit. Plus, she's got stories for days. Russell Acord : This dude's a beast—literally rappelling down cliffs like it's no big deal. His survival skills and years chasing Bigfoot make him the go-to for crazy missions. : This dude's a beast—literally rappelling down cliffs like it's no big deal. His survival skills and years chasing Bigfoot make him the go-to for crazy missions. Biko Wright: Newer to the squad in Season 6, Biko's already a star. Whether he's howling into the night or staking out 'The Fork,' he brings this infectious energy. Now, there's always a chance for surprises. Season 5 had Ronny LeBlanc and Ryan Golembeske, but they took a backseat in Season 6. Will they pop back up? Or maybe a new expert joins the hunt? Fans are buzzing about it on X, and honestly, it's anyone's guess. What to Expect in Expedition Bigfoot Season 7: New Adventures and Bigfoot Breakthroughs Season 6 got wild with talk of Bigfoot family groups and possible nesting spots in Northern California. So, what's Season 7 got cooking? Here's what's got fans hyped: New Spots to Hunt The team's scoured places like Oregon and Washington, but Season 7 could shake things up. Picture them trudging through Alaska's snowy forests or Canada's remote wilderness—places folks on X keep mentioning as Bigfoot central. A new location means new tracks, new sounds, and maybe a better shot at catching Sasquatch on camera. Cooler Tech This show loves its gadgets—thermal cameras, AI to map sightings, you name it. Season 6 had those slick tripwires and tiny trackers. Season 7 might crank it up with stuff like souped-up mics to catch those freaky howls or drones zipping through the trees. The goal's always the same: hard proof Bigfoot's out there. Digging into Bigfoot's Life Season 6 dropped hints about breeding grounds, which is huge. Could Season 7 track a whole Bigfoot family? Maybe they'll find more tree structures or analyze those weird screams Biko and Mireya heard. Fans are dying for a clear video of not just one Sasquatch, but a group. Heart-Pounding Moments Let's be honest—the best part is when things get intense. Russell climbing a 700-foot cliff? Bryce spotting something creepy in the footage? Season 7's sure to deliver more late-night stakeouts, rustling bushes, and 'was that Bigfoot?!' moments that keep us glued to the screen.
