How will you live in low oxygen? How can you stay in those extreme conditions? For that, Operation Mithra was launched in Ladakh. OK, let us now come to Sports News. Let's see what has been in the news in sports in the last six months. OK, the World Yogasana Championship 2026 – this was a big event. People are not bringing it into the news. India won 114 medals, and India was rank one with 112 Golds? Think – nine silvers and three bronzes – India had 114 medals, and this World Yogasana Championship was held in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. OK, the ICC Women's 2020 World Cup 2026 is happening. Let me tell you, it started on 12th June and goes till 5th July – India has already been eliminated. So India cannot win. Now you tell me – who will win this championship? Let me guess. The one who will win is Australia – the Australian women's team will win. Now let's see who wins on 5th July. Do mention in the comment box who has won. OK, next – India has won the SAFF – that is the South Asian Football Federation Women's Championship 2026. India has won it by defeating Bangladesh. This event was being held in Goa. OK, so you have to remember this too. Next is Praggnanandhaa. He became the first Indian to win the Norway Chess 2026 title. They can ask – who became that? So Praggnanandhaa became that. OK? Swatik and Chirag have made history. They won the Singapore Open – the men's doubles title. OK. Next – the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2027, let me tell you, is the 14th edition, and it will be held in ODI format. And it will be held in three countries: South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia. OK. It will be held in October and November 2027. OK. Next is the FIFA World Cup 2026. Remember – the FIFA World Cup is ongoing, in three countries: Canada, Mexico, and USA. And you can see its mascots. Canada's mascot is Maple; you can call it Moose? Jayu is Mexico's; you can call it Jaguar. Clutch, the blued bald eagle, is for the USA. So there are three mascots. Now let's see who wins the World Cup. I feel Argentina has chances. Actually, Portugal's chances are a bit lower because they have tough matches. But I feel Argentina might win again this time. Let's see who wins. OK? Next – the Australian Open Tennis – a very important tournament. The Men's Singles was won by Carlos Alcaraz. The Women's Singles was won by Rybakina – Aryna Sabalenka? Actually, "Rybakina" – but the text says "Rabkina" or "Raibikina" – we'll use Rybakina as known. OK. Speaking of the French Open – the Men's Singles was won by Alexander Zverev, and the Women's Singles was won by Mirra Andreeva. OK, remember – both the French Open and the Australian Open are very important Grand Slams in tennis. OK, next – the Khelo India Beach Games – these were held in Diu. They were held in Diu. Remember – in the Khelo India Beach Games, rank one was Karnataka, rank two was Tamil Nadu, and rank three was Manipur. OK, you can see the medal ranking. Actually, the ranking itself will be asked from you. Next – IPL happened for the 19th edition, and this has been won consecutively for the second time by RCB. Remember – and RCB defeated Gujarat Titans in the final. You may remember – in the last lecture I had told you that RCB will win this year – and that is what happened. Now some people are telling me, "Sir, who will win in 2027?" So look – when the IPL is announced, when new teams are formed, then I will tell at that time, but I again feel that RCB will definitely be in the top four. OK? Now when the new ones come – meaning the playoffs – RCB will definitely play in 2027 as well. Now when teams come, OK, when they are announced, when matches start, then at that time I will again tell who will win in 2027. Right now I am telling – RCB will again be in the top four, and I will also tell one more thing – CSK will not be in the top four again. OK? I am telling these two things right now – RCB will be in the top four. CSK will not be in the top four. And it's not because I am an RCB fan that I am saying this. I am telling you this due to logical reasons. OK? Let's move ahead. And if you want more details about the IPL – the 19th edition that has happened – I have made a lecture for that. I will give the link in the description box. Please go and check out my lecture once. There I have covered everything in detail. But you have to remember – RCB has won this title. OK? And also remember that the highest runs were scored by Vaibhav Suryavanshi. He got the Orange Cap, and the Purple Cap was given to Kagiso Rabada. OK? Rabada for the Purple Cap – for the most wickets. OK? Next – Gurvinder Singh. He has become India's fastest Indian sprinter. OK? Let me tell you, he has just set a record – he completed India's 100 meters in 10.09 seconds.

Let me tell you, the Commonwealth Table Tennis Championships are going to be held, which will be from 27th July to 2nd August, and it will be hosted in New Delhi, India. OK? It is the 2nd edition. OK? Next – the Thomas Cup – which is an important badminton tournament. China has won this tournament. OK, you have to remember the Thomas Cup. And similarly, for girls there is the Uber Cup – that has been won by South Korea. So you have to remember both – who won the Thomas Cup and the Uber Cup. OK, next – the FIDE Women's Candidates Tournament – this was won by R. Vaishali – she has won this tournament. OK? The Men's category is not important – it was won by the "Zabo"? Actually, it might refer to "Gukesh" or "Ding Liren"? The text says "ज़बो की जो है उन्होंने जीता है" – unclear. But the female one is more important. OK? Next – the first edition of the Khelo India Tribal Games, which were held in Chhattisgarh, and its mascot was Morveer, and in this, the most medals were won by Karnataka.

Next – BCCI has also recently given its awards, such as the BCCI Lifetime Achievement Award, which you call the CK Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award. This was given to Rajinder Binni? Actually, "रजर बिन्नी" – maybe it's "Rajinder Binni" or "Rajinder"? The text says "रजर बिन्नी को राहुल द्रविड़ को" – seems like two names: Rajinder Binni? And Rahul Dravid? The sentence: "ये रजर बिन्नी को राहुल द्रविड़ को ये अवार्ड दिया गया।" Possibly it's "Rajinder Binnu" or "Rajan Binni"? I'll translate as "Rajinder Binni" for clarity. OK. And the BCCI Lifetime Achievement Award for Women was given to Mithali Raj. OK? And the BCCI Cricketer of the Year Award was given to Shubman Gill. OK. Next – the Khelo India Winter Games 2026.

The Ranji Trophy is a cricket tournament. This was won by Jammu & Kashmir, and they defeated Karnataka in the final. OK. The RCB women's team also won this year's Women's Premier League.

You can also go and see my Women's Premier League lecture. OK, next – the Santosh Trophy 2026 – the 79th edition of the Santosh Trophy was held. And who won this trophy? Kerala?
