Muslims Protest Against Court Order Allowing Puja In Gyanvapi Tehkhana, Claim ‘No Proof Of…’ |
Varanasi: A section of people from the Muslim community on Thursday staged a protest against the Varanasi court’s order allowing puja inside Gyanvapi Mosque complex’s ‘Vyas Tehkhana’. The Muslim community protested after offering prayers at the Gyanvapi mosque. The protestorers while talking to reporters claimed that “there is no evidence that a that the Vyas family held any land inside the mosque complex.”
Earlier today, the Masjid Intezamia Committee of Gyanvapi mosque of Varanasi filed a revision petition in Allahabad High Court against Varanasi District Court’s order allowing Hindus to perform prayers inside the southern celler of Gyanvapi mosque.
In the petition filed by the Mosque committee, they have sought a stay on Varanasi court order.
The plea stated that till now the petition regarding maintainability of the suit under Order 7, Rule 11 has not been decided. Therefore, the order to give the right to worship is not correct.
Following the Varanasi court order, Muslim side lawyer Akhlaq Ahmed said, “The order has overlooked the Advocate Commissioner report of 2022, ASI’s report, and the decision of 1937, which was in our favour. The Hindu side has not placed any evidence that prayers were held before 1993. There is no such idol in the place.”
The mosque has four ‘tahkhanas’ (cellars) in the basement, of which one is still in the possession of the Vyas family, who used to live there. Vyas had petitioned that, as a hereditary pujari, he be allowed to enter the tahkhana and resume pooja.
The ASI survey, ordered by the same court, in connection with a related case, suggested that the mosque was constructed during Aurangzeb’s rule over the remains of a Hindu temple.

David Cup 2024: Indian tennis team has gone on Pakistan tour after 60 years for Davis Cup match.

It is being told that Pakistan Tennis Federation does not want to compromise on the security aspect. Therefore, Pakistan Tennis Federation itself has taken the responsibility of security.
As per the security plan implemented to make the players feel safe, a bomb disposal squad will check the Islamabad Sports Complex every morning and the Indian team will be under the surveillance of two escort vehicles during the journey. The team will enter the hotel through the VVIP entrance, which is reserved for heads of state. This process will continue throughout the match.

Pakistan’s veteran player Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi said that it is difficult. The ITF does not allow us to host too many guests or spectators due to security reasons. This is something we have to accept.

Hackers Likely Used ChatGPT To Create Fake Data Breach |
London: Hackers have likely used ChatGPT to promote a fake data breach where they claimed a cache of stolen data from the rental car giant Europcar. The hackers claimed to have stolen the personal information of more than 48 million Europcar customers. They also threatened to sell the hacked data. However, Europcar has now revealed the whole data breach saga was created using ChatGPT.
A Europcar spokesperson told TechCrunch that the company investigated the alleged breach after a threat intelligence service alerted it to the forum advertisement. “Thoroughly checking the data contained in the sample, we are confident that this advertisement is false,” the company spokesperson said. (Also Read: Budget 2024: Upcoming Period Will Be Golden Era For Tech-Savvy Youth, says FM)
“The sample data is likely ChatGPT-generated (addresses don’t exist, ZIP codes don’t match, first name and last name don’t match email addresses, email addresses use very unusual TLDs),” the company informed. The hacking forum user, however, said “the data is real”.
In the forum post, the user claimed the data included usernames, passwords, full names, home addresses, ZIP codes, birth dates, passport numbers and driver’s license numbers, among other data. Troy Hunt, who runs the data breach notification service Have I Been Pwned, posted on X that on the legitimacy of the data, “a bunch of things don’t add up”.
“The most obvious one is that the email addresses and usernames bear no resemblance to the corresponding people’s names,” he posted. “Next, each of those usernames is then the alias of the email address. What are the chances that ‘every single username’ aligns with the email address? Low, very low,” Hunt wrote. (Also Read: ChatGPT Users Can Now Bring GPTs Into Any Conversation In OpenAI).
However, this doesn’t make the email addresses fake and, quite the contrary, “a bunch of them are real and it’s easy to check”.

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)’s Smart Lander on the Moon (SLIM) has entered idle mode as lunar night falls over the crater where it made its historic landing. The lander’s journey has not been without obstacles. After landing on January 19, SLIM encountered problems with its solar panels being at the wrong angle, causing a loss of power.

SLIM now faces two weeks of extreme cold and darkness of the lunar night. SLIM operations ceased from January 30 to January 31, marking the beginning of a challenging period for the lander. Although SLIM was not initially designed to withstand the harsh conditions of lunar nights, in which temperatures drop to -170 degrees Celsius, those scientists are still hopeful.

JAXA sent commands to SLIM’s communications equipment on the night of 31 January to 1 February as a precautionary measure. However, no response was received, confirming the lander’s deactivation. Despite this, the probe miraculously regained power after more than a week, demonstrating its resilience and the robustness of its systems.

The world now looks forward to mid-February, when the sun’s rays can breathe new life into the defunct lander, allowing it to continue its scientific endeavors on the moon’s desolate but fascinating landscape.

Lunar night is a period of darkness that occurs during the waning and waxing phases of the Moon as seen from Earth. This phase presents one of the most formidable challenges to lunar missions due to the absence of sunlight and the resulting severe temperature drop. As lunar night surrounds the crater, the SLIM mission confirmed Japan’s technological prowess and potential for future lunar exploration.

New Delhi: On Sunday, Praveen Sood, an officer of the Indian Police Services (IPS) from the Karnataka cadre, achieved a significant milestone by being appointed as the Director of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). This decision was made by a panel headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, marking him as the third IPS officer from Karnataka to hold this prestigious position.
Praveen Sood, currently serving as the Director General of Police (DGP) of Karnataka, will serve as the Director of the CBI for a two-year term. His tenure as DGP began three years ago, a testament to his leadership in law enforcement.

He obtained a master’s in public policy and management from IIMB and the Maxwell School of Governance, Syracuse University, New York.
Having risen through the ranks, Sood served as the DGP of Karnataka Police for three years before assuming the role of Director of the CBI.

IND vs ENG: Who Is Shoaib Bashir? British Muslim Cricketer Likely To Make England Debut In 2nd Test Who Faced Visa Issue; Can Cause A Lot Of Trouble To India Batters In Vizag | cricket news
Shoaib Bashir has not made his international debut yet for England. But the off-spinner was all over the news some ten days ago. It was due to his visa not being granted by Indian authorities due to his Pakistani heritage. Non-Pakistani overseas citizens with Pakistani descent face visa issues in India as heavy paperwork is required to get a clearance.
Bashir was named in the England Test squad in December but the paperwork took time to get his visa. Without going into further details, his Visa arrived only after the first Test started in Hyderabad. Bashir was there in the England dressing room when the visitors scripted a stunning come-from-behind win over India in the first Test. Bashir was allowed by Ben Stokes to go and relax at the team hotel as he had been through a lot of travelling. But the youngster said that he wanted to be among the teammates.

Bashir was in UAE with the England squad bound for India for prep camp. While his teammates boarded the plane to India, he had to wait for his delayed visa. Upon hearing that it would require more paperwork in UK, Bashir traveled back to his home country and got it done. Then took another flight to reach India and went straightaway to Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad to sit in the England change room.
Barely six first-class matches old, Bashir was hand-picked by captain Ben Stokes after he watched a clip of his bowling on X (formerly Twitter).
“To be perfectly honest, Abu Dhabi was the first real live look I got at Bash,” Stokes said. “The first time I saw him was on Twitter. I think the County Championship (account) put a little clip together of him bowling against Sir Alastair.
“I’m in a WhatsApp group with Keysy and Baz. I actually did forward the clip on and said, ‘have a look at this, this could be something we could work with on our India tour’ and it just progressed from there. He got selected on the Lions tour and obviously the coaches on that tour fed back everything to us,” Stokes told media ahead of the 2nd Test.
Bashir just 10 wickets in these six appearances for Somerset. His ability to land the ball in right areas and his height could be one of the reasons why Stokes was interested in Bashir.
The 20-year-old is finally here in India and with Jack Leach injured and Brendon McCullum daring to play an all-spin attack at Vizag, it looks very likely that Bashir will be making his Test debut for England.
Bashir was born on October 13, 2003 in Surrey. He bats right-handed and is a right-arm off break bowler. He made his first-class debut for Somerset against Essex on June 11, 2023, and his T20 debut for Somerset against Hampshire on June 7, 2023.
He had started his club cricket career at Guldford. In 2022, he signed up with Somerset. His impressive show in Somerset-XI matches wherein he picked 9 wickets, Bashir was offered a contract by the County side in 2023. It was here that Stokes saw him and very quickly, Bashir was playing for England Lions in October 2023. For Lions, he picked 6 wickets for 42 runs in 15 overs across two innings vs Afghanistan B. With good feedback from Lions coaches, Bashir was named in the England Test squad for the India Tests.
