Prime Minister Narendra Modi's party will form the government in Indian capital Delhi for the first time in 27 years as it scripted an impressive election victory.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has won or is leading in 48 seats in the 70-member legislative assembly, while the incumbent Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is ahead in 22 seats, according to data from the Election Commission of India (EC).

A party that wins more than the halfway mark of 35 seats can form the government.

"Development wins, good governance triumphs," Modi wrote, external on X, adding his party would leave "no stone unturned" in developing Delhi .

In a video message on X, the AAP's former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal said, external he and his party "humbly accepted" the verdict of the people and congratulated the BJP on its win.

"I hope they live up to the expectations of the people who voted for them," he said.

The election was a battle of prestige for both the BJP and AAP, given Delhi's symbolic importance as the country's capital.

Plymouth Argyle produced a classic FA Cup giant-killing as the Championship's bottom club stunned Premier League leaders Liverpool at a raucous Home Park.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot made 10 changes from the side that swept Tottenham aside to reach the Carabao Cup final - and paid the price as Plymouth made the most of the opportunity to secure a place in the fifth round.

A scrappy tie came to life eight minutes after the interval when Plymouth were awarded a penalty after Harvey Elliott's handball, Ryan Hardie drilling home the spot-kick in emphatic fashion.

Hardie almost added a second shortly afterwards when his shot was turned on to the post by Liverpool keeper Caoimhin Kelleher.

Liverpool applied some pressure in the closing stages, keeper Conor Hazard saving superbly from Diogo Jota then miraculously from substitute Darwin Nunez's header, but Plymouth closed out a landmark win under new manager Miron Muslic.

Plymouth's atmospheric Home Park erupted with a deafening roar as the final whistle sounded on a victory they will recall forever in Devon.

The sinking of Liverpool was a triumph for Plymouth's charismatic manager Muslic, who has won the hearts of the 'Green Army' since succeeding the sacked Wayne Rooney.

In a stunning atmosphere, Plymouth sensed their chance when Liverpool's teamsheet landed, with stellar names such as Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk not even on the bench.

Plymouth, as they had to, made the tie a scrap and then the decisive moment came when Elliott needlessly handled, allowing Hardie to assume the role of match-winner.

And they found a hero in keeper Hazard in those closing moments as he saved from Jota, then miraculously from Nunez's header.

The main priority remains survival in the Championship, but the FA Cup demonstrated its enduring magic by producing a result that Plymouth hope will help their fight to stay up.

Ireland kept their Six Nations Grand Slam hopes firmly on track with an 11th victory in a row over a disappointing Scotland at Murrayfield.

The visitors blew away their hosts when speeding into a 17-0 lead with tries from Calvin Nash and captain Caelan Doris, both converted by Sam Prendergast, who also added a penalty.

Scotland's nightmare was made worse when Finn Russell and Darcy Graham collided early in the second quarter and both were removed from the contest, the wing being stretchered off after lengthy treatment on the pitch.

Duhan van der Merwe's spectacular finish at the end of the opening half gave Scotland some respite, and hopes grew when Blair Kinghorn added two penalties early in the second half.

Ireland were ruthless from there, though. They were utterly dominant. James Lowe and Jack Conan scored within seven minutes of each other approaching the hour.

The excellent, and stress-free, Prendergast added another three-pointer before Ben White scored a consolation, which was no consolation at all to the overwhelmed Scots.

The visitors were winning with more ease than anybody had imagined.

Hope arrived at the end of the half for Scotland when, having coughed up a lineout close to the Irish line, they went again, ran direct through Jack Dempsey and then found the holy grail of fast ruck ball and accurate hands.

Huw Jones fed McDowall, who slipped it out the side door to Van der Merwe. His finish was sensational.

There was a further sliver of optimism early in the new half. A solid start brought a Scotland penalty. Kinghorn banged it over. A nine-point game now.

Still a mountain to climb, but there was an edge to the Scots now that wasn't there before.

Kinghorn launched an attack from deep and Ireland scrambled. Henshaw came within a whisker of being done for a deliberate knock-on, a yellow card and possibly a penalty try, but like Van der Merwe, he escaped.

Back we came for penalty advantage and Kinghorn narrowed the gap to six from in front of the posts. Eleven unanswered points and expectations rising at Murrayfield.

Ireland were having none of Scotland's revival, though. In seven minutes leading up to the hour they struck out and settled the contest once and for all.

It was Lowe who finished it after Scotland were dragged right and left. The wing stepped around Kinghorn who had come barrelling out of the line and went over.

Prendergast's conversion made it 24-11 and soon after Gibson-Park took advantage of a woefully flat Scotland defence when dinking a kick over the top.

With nobody in the backfield, Ireland didn't have a massively difficult job in putting Conan over for the bonus point try.

There was that Prendergast penalty and the White try to come, but they were academic.

Ireland march on with serious intent while Scotland are shunted back into wearily familiar territory.

A campaigner and fundraiser for research into motor neurone disease (MND) has died, his family have said.

Sam Perkins, from East Leake, Nottinghamshire, was 37 when he was diagnosed with the condition in March 2019.

The former triathlete helped raise more than £250,000 through his charity Stand Against MND.

In September he was presented with an award at a ceremony organised by an online fundraising organisation.

MND is an incurable condition where nerve cells which control muscles gradually stop working.

In 2023 Mr Perkins set up the Fifty50 campaign looking to recruit 50 fundraisers to raise at least £500.

The name was chosen to represent the 50% chance of dying in the first two years after diagnosis.

The campaign attracted support from the likes of Nottingham Forest captain Joe Worrall and has so far raised more than £50,000, twice its original target.

His family confirmed his death on Sunday but have not commented further.

Warren Gatland has left his role as Wales head coach during the Six Nations after a record 14 successive Test match defeats.

Gatland, 61, was contracted until the 2027 World Cup but has departed by mutual consent, the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) confirmed.

Cardiff head coach Matt Sherratt will take over as interim head coach for the remaining three games of the Six Nations.

WRU chief executive Abi Tierney said Gatland initiated talks over his future after the loss in Italy on Saturday in which both parties agreed an immediate change was "in the best interests" of the Wales squad.

In a statement, Gatland said: "I would like to thank the WRU board for the faith shown in me after a tough campaign throughout 2024 and affording me the time and resource to try to turn things around for this 2025 tournament.

"We have worked hard, we have a talented young squad that is developing and have been desperate to turn potential into results but now is the right time for a change.

"I've reached the end of this particular chapter, but remain grateful to all those in Wales who have supported me, the players who have played for me and all those around me, especially my management team, who have contributed to what we have achieved over the years."

No announcement has been made on the rest of the current coaching team.

Wales face Ireland on 22 February in Cardiff, then travel to Scotland on 8 March before finishing the tournament at home against England on 15 March.

Tierney said the WRU wants to appoint a permanent successor before the summer tour to Japan with "all options open".

Former Australia coach Michael Cheika, Glasgow coach Franco Smith and Ireland interim boss Simon Easterby are potential long-term successors.

"We are grateful to Warren for all he has done for the game in Wales. He remains our longest-serving and most decorated head coach in terms of the silverware he has won," said Tierney.

England have called up 20-year-old rising star Henry Pollock for a three-day training camp as Tom Curry recuperates following Saturday's win over France.

Back row Pollock has enjoyed a breakthrough season with Northampton after playing a key role in England Under-20s' World Cup triumph in the summer.

Curry, who played the entirity of England's opening two Six Nations games, is following a modified recovery schedule after having surgery on his hip last year.

He and second row George Martin are continuing rehabilitation alongside their international team-mates as they prepare for the Six Nations meeting with Scotland on 22 February.

Both Curry and Martin are expected to resume full training next week in the build-up to the Calcutta Cup contest.

Exeter wing Immanuel Feyi-Waboso, who is in contention for the end of the tournament after opting against surgery on a shoulder dislocation, is also in camp on Thursday as he works towards his comeback.

Bath's Ted Hill is providing back-row cover alongside Pollock in a 28-strong group that includes Alex Mitchell and Harry Randall as the only two scrum-halves.

Raffi Quirke and Jack van Poortvliet both suffered injury setbacks prior to the start of the Six Nations, while Ben Spencer has slipped down the pecking order.

England, who lost their opening-round fixture against Ireland before beating France last weekend, are attempting to end Scotland's four-match winning streak in the fixture.

Scotland will come to Twickenham with injury doubts of their own. Star fly-half Finn Russell and wing Darcy Graham were forced off after clashing heads with each other in Scotland's loss to Ireland, while captain Sione Tuipulotu has been ruled out for the entire campaign after tearing a pectoral muscle.

A major steel producer has been granted permission to build a new plant which would include the country's largest machining hall.

Engineering specialists Sheffield Forgemasters will use the facility near Meadowhall to support manufacturing for defence programmes.

The Ministry of Defence bought the company in 2021, and the 16-acre site on Weedon Street will be operational by 2028.

Forgemasters programmes director Craig Fisher said it "signals an amazing investment for the city and for the wider UK".

Work is already underway to prepare the site, which will contain some of the largest and most advanced equipment ever produced for machining.

The main building will be 32m tall and cover a space equal to 12 Olympic swimming pools, which Mr Fisher called "an iconic landmark".

A second, smaller building will house a facility for testing products and a dedicated training area for new engineers.

Mr Fisher added that the new development would "create highly-skilled engineering jobs for decades to come".

"This planning agreement will see construction of the largest machining hall of its kind in the UK, and regeneration of a prominent brownfield site in the city's industrial centre," he said.

"What we are creating in the centre of Britain's historical industrial heartland is unparalleled in the UK and will not only de-risk supply for the UK's defence programme, but it will also deliver technologically advanced and rewarding working facilities for our employees."

Forgemasters has the capability to produce some of the largest bespoke engineered steel products in the world, with the capacity for castings weighing up to 350 tonnes, and the capacity for forgings weighing up to 200 tonnes.

The new plant will be able to produce complex nuclear-grade components more efficiently.

Construction of another new facility for forging is also underway on Brightside Lane.

Pope Francis will be admitted to hospital in Rome to undergo treatment and tests for bronchitis, the Vatican has said.

The 88-year-old will arrive at the Gemelli hospital after his morning audiences on Friday, a short statement said.

The Pope has had bronchitis symptoms for several days and has delegated officials to read his prepared speeches at recent events.

"This morning, after his audiences, Pope Francis will be admitted to the Agostino Gemelli Polyclinic for necessary diagnostic tests and to continue hospital treatment for his ongoing bronchitis," the statement said.

On Wednesday, the Pope asked a priest to read part of his speech because of his difficulties with the illness.

"Let me ask the priest to continue to read, because I cannot yet, with my bronchitis. I hope that next time I can," the 88-year-old said shortly after starting the speech.

He had also asked aides to read on his behalf at a mass on Sunday and at last Wednesday's general audience.

He held meetings at his Vatican residence last week in an attempt to rest and recover.

The Pope was treated for bronchitis at the same hospital in March 2023, spending three nights there.

In December the same year, he was forced to cancel his trip to the United Arab Emirates for the COP28 climate summit because of another bout of illness.

The Argentine pontiff has spent nearly 12 years as leader of the Roman Catholic Church.

He has suffered a number of health issues throughout his life, including having part of one of his lungs removed at age 21.
