2 India-Bound LPG Tankers Cross Strait Of Hormuz

Two liquefied petroleum gas tankers, BW Elm and BW Tyr, are crossing the Strait of Hormuz bound for India, according to ship tracking data from LSEG and Kpler. The US-Israeli war against Iran has all but halted shipping through the strait, but Iran said this week that "non-hostile vessels" may transit the waterway if they coordinate with Iranian authorities. The two India-flagged vessels have crossed the Gulf area and are in the eastern Strait of Hormuz, the data showed. India is gradually moving its stranded LPG cargoes out from the strait, with four LPG tankers moved so far - Shivalik, Nanda Devi, Pine Gas, and Jag Vasant. As of Friday, 20 Indian-flagged ships including five LPG carriers were stranded in the Gulf, Rajesh Kumar Sinha, special secretary in the federal shipping ministry, said. LPG carriers Jag Vikram, Green Asha and Green Sanvi are still in the western Strait of Hormuz, LSEG data show. India, the world's second-largest LPG importer, is battling its w...

'Bibi Really Sold It': A Rebuke In Vance-Netanyahu Tense Call Amid Iran War

US Vice President JD Vance had a tense phone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier this week, during which he told the premier off for what he viewed as overly rosy assumptions about the war in Iran, Axios reported. According to the outlet, Vance pressed Netanyahu on his confidence regarding the likelihood of regime change. One US official told Axios that "Before the war, Bibi really sold it to the president as being easy, as regime change being a lot likelier than it was. And the VP was clear-eyed about some of those statements", referring to Netanyahu by his nickname. After the call, a US official claimed Israel was actively undermining Vance, who has emerged as a central figure in ceasefire talks with the Islamic Republic. A long-time critic of open-ended foreign interventions, Vance is participating in negotiations alongside US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. The same official alleged that Israel was responsible for reports sugges...

'Harassed By Wife, In-Laws': Pune Man, 20, Poisons Himself, Records Video

Driven to the edge by alleged harassment and mental torture by his wife and in-laws, a 20-year-old man has died by suicide after consuming rat poison in Pune. Before taking the step, the man recorded a video detailing the ordeal he was subjected to and sent it to a friend. Police have filed a case of abetment to suicide against seven people, including the wife. Mohammed Saad Asif Sayyad (20), who was originally from Malegaon in Nashik district, lived in the Jambhulwadi area of Pune. Officials said Saad had a dispute with his wife, Karimunnisha aka Nisha Khan, and she and his in-laws had subjected him to constant harassment. On Thursday, Saad recorded a video on his phone in which he detailed the harassment and named seven people, including Nisha. He sent the video to a friend in Malegaon and then consumed rat poison. "A case of abetment to suicide was registered on Friday. The accused who have been named in the FIR are Nisha, Sarwar alias Kaif Khan, Reshma Kamrukhan, Shama Jav...

Gujarat Man Kills Widow Who Used To Tie Him Rakhi, Then Joins Search For Her

A case of murder and deception has shaken up the Defence Colony area of Gujarat's Jamnagar after a missing widow was found dead in the home of a neighbour she considered her brother. The suspect, who allegedly strangled the woman, had joined her grieving sons in the search before his crime was uncovered. Rinkidevi Bantu Singh Katheriya, a native of Mathura in Uttar Pradesh, had been building a life for her three children in Jamnagar following her husband's death from a heart attack in 2021. Employed at a pharmaceutical factory in Naghedi village, Rinkidevi was the sole breadwinner for her children - Rohit (19), Nitin (17) and Anjali (6). The alarm was raised two days ago when she failed to return home. Her eldest son, Rohit, filed a missing person's report with the local police, sparking a search that involved both the authorities and close family friends. During the investigation, police traced Rinkidevi's last-known movements to the residence of Vijay Odich, who li...

A "Lousy Fighters" Jibe From Trump As Iran Calls US Proposal "One-Sided"

US President Donald Trump characterised Iranian leaders as "great negotiators" but said their country had "lousy fighters" during a Cabinet meeting on Thursday.  "They're lousy fighters, but they're great negotiators, and they are begging to work out a deal," Trump said at the White House alongside top officials, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth. Trump suggested that a deal might not ultimately come together. "I don't know if we'll be able to do that," he said of the prospects for a deal. I don't know if we're willing to do that." Earlier in the day, in a post on Truth Social, Trump claimed that Iran had been "begging" for a deal but has publicly maintained that they are just "looking at our proposal". Meanwhile, a senior Iranian official told Reuters that the US proposal to end the war was "one-sided and unfair".  "In brief, the proposal...

Iran Claims It Fired Cruise Missiles At US Aircraft Carrier Abraham Lincoln

Iran said on Wednesday it fired a volley of cruise missiles at a US aircraft carrier, as strikes rained down across the Middle East despite back-channel diplomatic efforts to end the nearly four-week war. A conflict that began on February 28 with a US-Israeli bombing campaign on Iran has rapidly engulfed the entire region, sending oil prices skyrocketing and threatening to derail the global economy. Diplomats said they were working behind the scenes to ferry messages between the warring parties, despite contradictory public statements about whether talks were actually taking place. But there was no let-up in the military activity, with targets in Iran, Israel, Lebanon, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan and Saudi Arabia all coming under fire. Iran's military said its cruise missiles at the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier group had "forced it to change its position", warning of "powerful strikes" when the "hostile fleet" comes into range. On the other side, Israe...

"It Hurts'": Ganguly Slams IPL Uncertainty Over Rs 11.75 Crore Overseas Pacer

Former Indian cricket team captain Sourav Ganguly did not mince words when asked for his reaction on the uncertainty surrounding Mitchell Starc 's availability for the start of IPL 2026. Delhi Capitals said at the press conference that they are waiting for a green signal from Cricket Australia. And this is what Dada said while in Delhi for a brand endorsement for Jakson, "It hurts... because when quality players don't come in at the last minute, it shakes the balance of the team." Starc is set to miss the opening phase of the season as Cricket Australia carefully manages his workload ahead of a packed 2026-27 calendar. The timing could not be worse as franchises build their squads and strategies around marquee overseas players. Ganguly, speaking on the broader issue of player availability in franchise cricket, said the impact of such late withdrawals is far greater in the IPL than in international cricket. "It hurts because I've always said making an India...

Trump Shares Pakistan PM's Iran War Mediation Post, Fuels Speculation

US President Donald Trump has triggered intense diplomatic speculation regarding a potential mediating role for Islamabad in the ongoing Washington-Tehran standoff, after he shared an official statement from Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. The move follows a post on X by Prime Minister Sharif, in which he expressed Islamabad's eagerness to facilitate a diplomatic resolution to the regional crisis. Sharif stated that Pakistan was "ready and honoured" to moderate "meaningful and conclusive talks" between the United States and Iran, provided there is a mutual agreement from both parties. Expanding on Islamabad's position, the Prime Minister noted, "Pakistan welcomes and fully supports ongoing efforts to pursue dialogue to end the war in the Middle East, in the interest of peace and stability in the region and beyond." He further clarified that, "Subject to concurrence by the US and Iran, Pakistan stands ready and honoured to be the host...

Man Watches Dhurandhar 2 Instead Of Booking Hotel After Vaishno Devi Yatra Halt

In an unusual turn of events, a pilgrim visiting Vaishno Devi found a creative way to manage an unexpected delay during his journey. Instead of booking a hotel room, he chose to spend the night watching a film, turning the situation into a cost-saving experience. Madhav, who went on a pilgrimage to Vaishno Devi, shared his experience on Twitter (formerly Twitter). He explained that as soon as he arrived at the pilgrimage site, he learned that the pilgrimage had been suspended. Since night darshan was not possible, he had to make arrangements for accommodation. At the same time, the rent for a night in nearby hotels was around Rs 1,500, so he began considering other options. To save money, Madhav decided to watch a night show of Dhurandhar 2 for Rs 300. The 3-hour, 49-minute film provided a comfortable way to spend the night. Check Out The Post Here: Vaishno Devi aaya tha, lekin yahan aake pata chala ki yatra band ho gayi hai. Raat ko rukne ke liye hotel lena padta jo ₹1500 ka t...

Colombian Military Transport Plane With 80 Troops Crashes After Takeoff

Colombia's military said today some 80 troops were believed to be dead after a transport plane crash in the south of the country. There were at least two platoons on the plane, news agency AFP reported quoting a military source. The plane was a C-130 Hercules tactical transport aircraft. It crashed on takeoff from Puerto Leguizamo, near the southern border with Ecuador. Colombia's defence minister said many are feared dead. State broadcaster RCN ran images of a badly damaged fuselage aflame in a forest clearing. This aircraft can typically carry about 100 troops. "Military units are already at the scene. However, the number of victims and the causes of the crash have not yet been confirmed," the defence minister posted on social media. "It is a deeply painful event for the country. May our prayers bring some measure of comfort." With inputs from agencies   from NDTV News- Special https://ift.tt/ws42gin

Ranveer Singh Lands In Trouble Over Dhurandhar 2 AI Poster

Actor Ranveer Singh's film Dhurandhar: The Revenge has landed in controversy after members of the Sikh community raised strong objections over a viral poster linked to the film. The outrage began after a written complaint was filed at Mumbai's Mulund Police Station, alleging that the film has hurt Sikh religious sentiments.  The complaint was submitted by Sardar Gurjyot Singh, president of the organisation 'Sikhs in Maharashtra', who flagged concerns about a poster circulating online. According to the complaint, the poster shows a character dressed in traditional Sikh attire, including a turban, while smoking a cigarette. The organisation argued that such a depiction goes against Sikh religious principles and disrespects the community, as well as Guru Gobind Singh. The group has put forward several demands to the Mumbai Police. They have urged authorities to treat the matter with seriousness and take immediate action. They have also called for the controversial pos...

US' TikTok-Style Iran War Clips Spark Backlash For Trivialising Conflict

The Trump administration's war messaging has taken an unconventional turn with TikTok-style videos that fuse real missile strikes on Iran with scenes from Hollywood blockbusters and video games. The result has left former defence officials and lawmakers scandalised, with critics accusing the White House of turning warfare into spectacle. Across its social media platforms, the administration has pushed out high-energy clips that cut between actual explosions in Iran and footage of action heroes, gaming sequences, and even hard-hitting football moments.  The tone has drawn sharp backlash, including from a senior cleric in the US Catholic Church, who argued that such content reduces the gravity of real conflict to entertainment. The videos borrow heavily from pop culture, with snippets from "Braveheart", "Superman", "Top Gun", "Breaking Bad", and "Iron Man" woven into visuals believed to depict the Iran campaign.  In one edit, a ca...

'Only Simple Flag-Hoisting': Pak Cancels Republic Day Parade Amid Oil Crisis

Pakistan has cancelled its military parade and ceremonial events that were scheduled for March 23, the country's Republic Day. Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's office announced on Tuesday. The decision has been taken in the backdrop of a crisis that has been triggered due to disruptions in oil supply because of the ongoing war between the US-Israel and Iran. "In light of the ongoing Gulf oil crisis and the austerity measures announced by the government, it has been decided that the Pakistan Day parade scheduled for March 23 and all associated ceremonies will not be held," the statement read.

String Of Exits In Assam Raises Poll Stakes For Congress, Priyanka Gandhi

The departure of Assam Congress leaders Bhupen Borah and now Pradyut Bordoloi, which has added to the challenges of the Congress ahead of the state election, has sparked an internal debate in the state unit on why the party's senior leaders could not prevent it. While many question the role of the state party chief, others question how such an event could transpire under the watch of Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. Sources close to her have pointed out that the senior leader has been serving as the Chairperson of the Screening Committee and her role has been limited to the selection of candidates.  Bordoloi, often called Shashi Tharoor of the northeast for his erudition, resigned from his Lok Sabha seat yesterday and is now set to contest the assembly elections on a BJP ticket. He is the last in a long line of leaders from Assam Congress who have made a beeline for the BJP since Himanta Biswa Sarma changed camp.  Though Bordoloi has said his decision was the result of a slow estrang...

China, Pak Developing Nuclear Missiles That Put US Within Range: Intel Chief

US Intelligence Chief Tulsi Gabbard, presenting the intelligence community's 2026 Annual Threat Assessment, said that Russia, China, North Korea, Iran and Pakistan are the most significant nuclear threats to the United States.  While testifying before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Wednesday, Gabbard said, "The intelligence community assesses that Russia, China, North Korea, Iran, and Pakistan have been researching and developing an array of novel, advanced, or traditional missile delivery systems, with nuclear and conventional payloads, that put our homeland within range." Gabbard said that China and Russia are developing advanced delivery systems that are capable of penetrating or bypassing US missile defences.  "North Korea's ICBMs can already reach US soil, and it is committed to expanding its nuclear arsenal," she added. The intel chief highlighted that North Korea is deepening its ties with Russia and China, a shifting alignment she suggested...

SKY Apologised To NZ Star, Told Arshdeep This After T20 WC Final Clash

India's T20 skipper Suryakumar Yadav has revealed that he personally apologised to New Zealand's Daryl Mitchell after he was hit by an Arshdeep Singh throw during the recent World Cup final as he wanted to set an example of good leadership. Arshdeep was fined 15 per cent of his match fee and handed a demerit point by the ICC for throwing the ball that hit Mitchell on his pads. The pacer did not immediately apologise which prompted Mitchell to confront him, leading to an intervention by Suryakumar and the on-field umpires. Arshdeep eventually issued a public apology and the two players shook hands at the end of the match that India won by 96 runs to retain the trophy. Asked about the aggression on display in that moment during a podcast interview with PTI Videos, Suryakumar made light of the incident. "Heat of the moment mein kabhi kabhi ho jaata hai (It happens in the heat of the moment sometimes). At that time you don't fully understand what is happening. But late...

Induction Cooking vs Infrared: What Is Similar, What Is Different

If you have been thinking about adding an electric cooktop to your kitchen, you have probably already run into the induction versus infrared question. Both sit behind a flat glass surface, both run on electricity, and both look almost identical on a kitchen counter. But they work in completely different ways, and for Indian cooking specifically (everything from a high-heat tadka to a slow-cooked dal, a deep-fry in a kadhai to a Phulka on a tawa), the differences matter a lot more than they would for a kitchen that mostly does pasta and scrambled eggs. Here is a proper breakdown of what each cooktop actually does, how it handles the demands of Indian cooking, and which one makes more sense for your home. How They Work: The Fundamental Difference This is the part most people skip, but it explains everything else. An induction cooktop does not generate heat in the cooktop surface itself. Instead, it uses electromagnetic energy to generate heat directly inside the base of the cookwar...

Man Jumps From 23rd Floor With 2-Year-Old Daughter In Arms At Noida High-Rise

A private school operator allegedly jumped from the 23rd floor of a residential building with his two-year-old daughter in his arms here on Monday, killing both, police said. Police said Rahul Vijayran (35), from Delhi's Nangloi area, lived in Tower 9 of the residential society, but he jumped from another tower, which makes the case suspicious. According to Vijayran's family members, he had lost his sight in one eye after contracting coronavirus during the COVID-19 pandemic and was distressed due to this. The incident took place at a housing society in Sector 102 around 7.30 am. On Monday morning, while Neetu Dahiya was cooking at home, her husband Vijayran took their daughter Vamika to play in the society park. He later went to the 23rd floor of Tower 5 and allegedly jumped with his child, police said. Upon hearing commotion, when Neetu went out, she found a man and a girl lying on the ground in a pool of blood. Residents took the two to a private hospital, where doctors d...

Indian-German Couple Reveals Why They Chose To Move From Germany To India

An Indian-German couple recently opened up about their decision to leave Germany and move to India, stating that life in the European nation had become "too comfortable" and they were moving in circles. "Life started running on autopilot," the man, Deepesh Patel, wrote in an Instagram post, explaining that they craved a challenge and an opportunity to grow. The couple felt that their life in Germany was too predictable and lacked excitement. They also wanted to experience personal transformation. "We didn't leave Germany because of the cold weather or the strict bureaucracy (although, we admit, there were moments when those things tested our patience)," the caption of the post read. "Ironically, we left because life had become too comfortable. Germany gave us financial stability, social security, and a sense of ease. But over time, our lives started running on autopilot. Days felt repetitive, and it seemed like we were moving in circles." A...
