The Supreme Court has issued a significant ruling concerning the growing population of stray dogs in Delhi-NCR. To address this issue, the court has ordered that all stray dogs be captured and placed in dog shelters within the next eight weeks. Following this decision, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has voiced his opinion on the matter. In a post on the social media platform X, Rahul Gandhi stated that the Supreme Court’s directive to remove all stray dogs from Delhi-NCR is a step backward from decades of humane, science-backed policy. He emphasized that these animals are not problems to be eliminated.…

The film is a story of socio-political exploitation and the…
India is experiencing a surge in its ‘Make in India’ initiative, with the nation emerging as a leading smartphone supplier to the United States. Recent data reveals that New Delhi has surpassed Beijing as the top smartphone supplier to Washington. This shift was driven by Apple’s relocation of operations to India in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the tariff war initiated by former President Donald Trump.
You’ve likely seen many T20 matches. This format has witnessed numerous records being broken and made. Teams have collapsed to low scores. However, the event we’re about to describe is something you’ve likely never seen or heard of before. It’s a unique occurrence that happened during a women’s T20 match, where 10 batsmen from one team didn’t even score, meaning they were out for zero.

A common joke is that a government teacher earning a salary of 60,000 rupees sends their children to private schools where teachers are paid 15,000 rupees a month. The deplorable state of government education policy did not exist before independence. At that time, none of the national heroes came from private schools, colleges, or universities. However, after independence, private schools and colleges increased so much that even government employees started sending their children to private schools. Ten years ago, on August 18, 2015, Justice Sudhir Agarwal of the Allahabad High Court ruled that all government employees, MLAs, MPs, ministers, etc.,…

In ‘Mangal Pandey,’ the blend of elements occasionally feels synthetic, sometimes eliciting sympathy, and at times, veering into the pathetic. The attempt to capture a pivotal moment in history is fragmented into compartmentalized kitsch. A. R. Rahman’s musical score fails to mitigate the sense of disappointment. Aamir Khan’s performance is ‘polished.’ From his appearance, he appears tanned, as if with boot polish, to portray Mangal Pandey, a figure rightly considered a pioneer in India’s struggle for independence from colonial rule. The script’s harshness and inconsistencies often prove more oppressive than the brutal ‘Gora Log’ (white people) whose costumes seem readily…
