A 21-year-old cricketer from Kulshari village in Jammu and Kashmir's Doda district died after reportedly suffering a sudden cardiac arrest while playing a match in the ongoing Bhalessa Premier Cricket League at Sports Stadium Thaloran. He collapsed shortly after completing his bowling over and was rushed to SDH Gandoh, where doctors declared him dead.

A cricketer identified as Sohail, a resident of Bhaderwah, collapsed and died during a match in Doda district's Gandoh tehsil on Monday. The cause of death is under investigation.

A founder member of the Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) has urged Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah to visit the flood-hit Thathri area in Doda district and announce a special relief package for affected families. In a letter to the Chief Minister, Thakur Randeep Bhandari said the recent flash floods caused extensive damage to homes, agricultural land, roads, and public infrastructure, and called for immediate financial assistance, rehabilitation measures, and restoration of damaged infrastructure. He also said the Chief Minister's visit would help assess the ground situation and boost the morale of affected residents.

Rajya Sabha MP Sajjad Ahmad Kichloo has urged the Deputy Commissioner, Doda, to take immediate post-disaster restoration measures in flood-hit Thathri under the Post-Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA) and SASCI Scheme, days after Doda MLA Mehraj Malik sought a comprehensive rehabilitation plan from the Jammu and Kashmir government. The MP also requested the administration to consider a public resolution submitted along with his communication, highlighting the need for expedited restoration and long-term recovery following the recent flash floods.

Rajya Sabha MP Sajjad Ahmad Kichloo has announced ₹1 lakh in financial assistance for each severely affected family in flood-hit Thathri from his MPLAD fund, following an extensive visit to the affected areas. Describing the destruction as far worse than what was visible in social media videos, he said the focus should now shift from rescue operations to long-term rehabilitation and reconstruction of damaged infrastructure.

Doda MLA Mehraj Malik has urged the Jammu and Kashmir government to undertake a Post-Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA), declare severely affected localities as flood-prone where technically feasible, and prepare a comprehensive rehabilitation and relocation plan for vulnerable families following the recent flash floods in Thathri that caused widespread damage to homes, shops, vehicles, and public infrastructure.

The National Health Mission (NHM), Jammu and Kashmir, and the Directorate of Health Services (DHS), Jammu, have rescinded earlier transfer and deputation orders, directing several doctors, paramedical staff, and other healthcare officials to return to their original postings in Doda district with immediate effect. The move, which reportedly follows the intervention of Doda MLA Mehraj Malik, is expected to strengthen healthcare services in Thathri and other areas facing persistent staff shortages.
