Welcome to the CBT 2025 hub. Here you’ll find the freshest stories that matter right now – weather warnings, sports scores, holiday notices, trade news and more. We keep it short, clear and useful so you can stay on top of what’s happening without scrolling through endless pages.

Weather alerts you need to know

India’s monsoon season is in full swing, and several regions are under alerts. Delhi‑NCR is facing an orange rain alert with chances of heavy showers up to 87% today. Expect the worst between 2 pm and 6 pm, and plan extra travel time. Uttar Pradesh has 15 districts under orange alerts while Lucknow sits on a yellow warning – rain is still heavy, especially in August, with some places seeing over 300 mm already.

Kolkata is dealing with waterlogging after a depression moved in from the Bay of Bengal. The city’s drains are clogged, so expect slow traffic and longer journeys. If you’re heading to the IPL 2025 opener at Eden Gardens, know that the match is under an orange alert too. A sudden squall could interrupt play, so keep an eye on live updates.

Sports, holidays and big headlines

Cricket fans have a lot to talk about. The IPL opener between KKR and RCB could be delayed by rain, while the Champions Trophy saw Fakhar Zaman ruled out with an injury, prompting a reshuffle for the India‑Pakistan clash. Over in the Caribbean, the CPL 2025 squads are locked in, and South Africa’s Keshav Maharaj just broke the 200‑test‑wicket barrier.

Bigg Boss 19 just launched with Salman Khan back as host. New faces like Ashnoor Kaur and Mridul Tiwari are stirring up drama, and the show is already trending on social media. If you’re planning a break, note that many banks are closed on Janmashtami (August 25, 2025). Digital banking stays open, but expect queues once branches reopen the next day.

On the trade front, a US court recently struck down most of Trump’s tariffs, but a fresh 50% tariff on Indian imports has been announced, citing Russia oil purchases. This could push up prices on clothing and footwear, so keep your shopping list flexible.

Other notable stories include the controversial teaser for the Tamil film “Bad Girl,” which sparked a debate on community representation, and the sensational retirement of India’s Test stalwart Cheteshwar Pujara.

All these pieces fall under the CBT 2025 tag because they shape the current landscape – from what you’ll see on TV to what you’ll need to pack for the monsoon. Bookmark this page and check back often. We’ll keep adding the latest headlines, so you never miss a beat.
