The succession saga surrounding Sanjay Kapoor’s death continues to unravel in courtrooms. Rani Kapoor, mother of the late auto parts tycoon, saw her urgent petition against a purportedly bogus family trust postponed by the Delhi High Court to January 29. The trust, she alleges, was a sly maneuver by Priya Kapoor and Karisma Kapoor’s kids to monopolize Sona Comstar holdings and other assets. Presiding Justice Vikas Mahajan stepped aside, ensuring a fresh bench reviews the explosive claims on Thursday. A prior hearing on January 23 met the same fate. Rani’s filings paint a picture of deceit: during her grief-stricken state…
British Columbia’s gang underworld claimed another victim with the fatal shooting of 28-year-old Dilraj Singh Gill, an Indian-origin Vancouverite long on police radar. The brazen daylight attack unfolded on January 22 at approximately 5:30 PM in Burnaby’s 3700-block of Canada Way, prompting a swift RCMP response.

That Mumbai probe lingers with AAIB, now intensified by the Baramati tragedy. The company’s…

New Delhi’s sports authorities are drawing a clear line between recognition and representation. The Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports has fired off instructions to every recognized National Sports Federation (NSF), demanding they cease using government emblems, ministry insignias, and SAI logos without permission. Instances of misuse have surfaced across letterheads, websites, business cards, and promotional content, fostering false perceptions of official government affiliation. Such actions contravene the 2011 National Sports Development Code, prompting this urgent intervention. Government backing through recognition and grants does not equate to branding rights. NSFs may reference their status in writing alone, steering clear of…
