  • Gyanvapi Mosque Case: Varanasi Court Denies Hindu Side’s Plea For Fresh ASI Survey |

    Gyanvapi Mosque Case: The Court of Civil Judge (Senior Division) Fast Track Court, Varanasi on Friday dismissed the Hindu side’s petition seeking an addditional survey of the Gyanvapi complex by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). 

    The Hindu side claimed that there is a 100-foot Shivling present under the dome of the mosque and requested an excavation and ASI survey of the establishment. However, advocate Vijay Shankar representing the Hindu side said, “The court has rejected the application for an additional survey of the protection of the whole Gyanvapi area by the ASI.” Shankar further expressed the willingness to take the matter to higher court ‘on an immediate basis’. 

    “The civil court has rejected and the order is also out… We will go to the district court for revision against this order,” said Subhash Nandan Chaturvedi, one of the lawyers representing the Hindu side. 

    The ASI survey of most areas of the temple complex has been completed. However, some sections, inaccessible to the machines, remain unsurveyed, according to Chaturvedi. “Hence, an additional survey was demanded,” he explained. 

    Confident in their prospects, Chaturvedi added, “We will go to the Civil Court and succeed. The survey will take place… We will make sure that the survey of every inch of the temple complex takes place… This is not a setback… We have already presented all the evidence.” 

    The ongoing legal battle of Lord Visheshwar vs Anjuman Intezamiya Masjid Committee, centered on granting Hindus the right to worship and construct a new temple within the Gyanvapi premises, has been in progress since 1991. Filed by the Hindu side seeking permission to establish a temple within the contested site, the case has lingered in the courts for 33 years. Today, the Muslim side’s legal team concluded their arguments, moving the decades-long case one step closer to a verdict.

  • BRICS 2024: Russian Prez Putin Calls For De-Escalation In Middle East, Opens Up On Ties With US | world news

    BRICS Summit 2024: In his statements during the 16th BRICS Summit in Kazan, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke about various issues ranging from Russia’s role as a moderator in the Middle East to the country’s relationship with North Korea and Donald Trump, amongst other issues.

    Speaking about the payment mechanism between the BRICS member countries, Putin said, “BRICS does not aim to create a separate payment system. The BRICS countries realize that the payments problem is one of the main obstacles to cooperation within the bloc, but member states will use existing systems to circumvent it.”

    Earlier during the Summit, President Putin had proposed to create a new investment platform for BRICS countries, amongst other measures announced during the Summit. Commenting upon the United States, he said that investigations have shown that Donald Trump has had no ties with Russia and he noted, “If the United States is open to normal relations with Russia, we will do the same.”

    While Putin welcomed the statements from President Trump to end the conflict in Ukraine, he denied the allegations of Russia ‘planning to sow chaos in Europe; and called it “complete garbage.” Speaking about Russia’s relationship with North Korea, he said, “It is our business how we implement the North Korea partnership.”

    The Kazan Declaration had seen the member countries show grave concern at the deterioration of the situation and humanitarian crisis in the Middle East and had called for “urgent measures in accordance with international law to ensure the protection of lives” in the affected areas.

    President Putin, in his speech, reiterated the sentiment and said, “We are concerned by the events in the Middle East and do not want the conflict to worsen”. He said that Russia has “a role in the settlement of conflict in the Middle East”.

    BRICS, as a formal grouping, started after the meeting of the Leaders of Russia, India and China in St. Petersburg on the margins of the G8 Outreach Summit in 2006. The grouping was formalized during the first meeting of BRIC Foreign Ministers on the margins of UNGA in New York in 2006. The first BRIC Summit was held in Russia’s Yekaterinburg in 2009.

    It was agreed to expand BRIC into BRICS with the inclusion of South Africa at the BRIC Foreign Ministers’ meeting in New York in 2010. South Africa attended the 3rd BRICS Summit in Sanya in 2011. A further expansion of BRICS took place in 2024 with five new members – Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.

  • ‘Stop This…’: Farooq Abdullah’s Warning To Pakistan After J&K Attacks |

    New Delhi: National Conference President Farooq Abdullah has publicly accused Pakistan of orchestrating terror attacks in Jammu and Kashmir and urged the neighboring nation to halt its aggressive actions. In a strongly worded statement, Farooq stated that Islamabad should ‘put an end’ to its constant attacks and “find a way to be friends… otherwise issues will arise”. 

    The statement came after a troubling surge in terror attacks in Jammu and Kashmir, including a deadly strike late Thursday night on an Army vehicle in Baramulla that killed four people including two soldiers and two civilians. Just three days before, gunmen shot and killed six construction workers and a doctor in Ganderbal. 

    While talking to media in Baramulla, the NC chief said, “These terror attacks will persist in the state until we find a viable solution… we all know where they stem from. For 30 years, I have watched innocent people lose their lives. Why is Pakistan engaging in this, jeopardizing its own future, especially when it’s clear we will never be part of Pakistan?” 

    Baramulla, J&K: JKNC President Farooq Abdullah reacts to the recent terror attack, says, “I have been witnessing this since 1984. This terrorism has not stopped. Many of our colleagues were martyred, but it still continues every year. This means it has not stopped, and you know… pic.twitter.com/isPorL3eCf

    He stated that Islamabad is mistaken in believing these attacks will bring Kashmir under its control. “I have been witnessing this since 1984. This terrorism has not stopped. Many of our colleagues were martyred, but it still continues every year,” he remarked, adding that the violence persists due to known sources. “They mistakenly think that this will help them unite Kashmir with Pakistan,” he said. 

    In conversation with news agency ANI, Farooq remarked, “We are not going to be part of Pakistan, so why are they doing this – to disrupt our future? They should look towards their country and the issues out there.” 

    Earlier today, security forces resumed search operations in Baramulla following last night’s clash between the Indian Army and terrorists. The attack on a military vehicle in Baramulla resulted in the deaths of two Indian Army soldiers and two civilian porters, according to Army officials. One soldier and one porter were injured and are currently receiving medical treatment.

  • Virat Kohli Gets Bowled On Full-Toss Delivery During IND vs NZ 2nd Test At Pune, Video Goes Viral – Watch | cricket news

    In a moment that left cricket fans stunned and critics abuzz, Indian cricket legend Virat Kohli fell to an unusual delivery in the second Test between India and New Zealand in Pune.

    A Shockwave Through Pune: Kohli Bowled on Full-Toss

    After a steady yet cautious start, Kohli arrived at the crease with India looking to rebuild after an early loss. Facing the wily left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner, Kohli appeared set to steady the innings. However, on the ninth ball he faced, a low full-toss delivery from Santner veered in towards middle stump. In an uncharacteristic attempt to hoick across the line, Kohli misread the trajectory, and the ball slipped under his bat, thudding onto the middle and leg stumps. His score read a mere 1 off 9 balls, and the usually confident Kohli could only walk off the field visibly frustrated with himself.

    The silence in the stadium was palpable, punctuated only by the audible gasp of fans witnessing their star’s rare misjudgment. This dismissal—a mix of miscalculation and a rare lapse in technique—took everyone by surprise and ignited intense social media discussions, with the footage spreading like wildfire.

    Social Media Reactions: Fans React to Kohli’s Rare Mistake

    Within minutes of his dismissal, Kohli’s surprising out became a trending topic, sparking both support and criticism on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram. Many fans expressed disbelief, unable to reconcile Kohli’s legendary precision with the miscalculated swing they had just witnessed. Others were quick to criticize his shot selection, calling it uncharacteristic and reckless.

    Some fans defended the former captain, attributing the mishap to the unpredictable nature of Santner’s deceptive delivery. “Even the best make mistakes,” posted one fan, while another noted, “You don’t often see Kohli misjudge like this.” However, trolls also took the opportunity to poke fun at the star, adding another layer to the viral storm surrounding his brief outing.

    India’s Strategy Shift After Kohli’s Departure

    Kohli’s wicket left India in a slightly precarious position at 68 for three on Day 2. With Shubman Gill and Kohli both back in the pavilion early, pressure mounted on young talents Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rishabh Pant to stabilize the innings and counter New Zealand’s relentless bowling. Santner, having already displayed his prowess, continued to apply pressure with his controlled variations, and the Indian batsmen had their work cut out to navigate the challenges.

    Despite Kohli’s departure, Team India remained optimistic, with head coach Rahul Dravid emphasizing the need for patience and focus to regain momentum. The second Test held high stakes, as India trailed 0-1 in the three-match series. Winning this match would not only keep the series alive but also restore the team’s morale after a disappointing first Test.

    Washington Sundar’s Stellar Performance Adds Hope for India

    While Kohli’s unusual dismissal became the headline, another player shone brightly in the spotlight—Washington Sundar. The all-rounder delivered an unforgettable performance, claiming seven wickets for just 59 runs. Sundar’s bowling not only rattled the New Zealand lineup but also marked the best figures recorded at Pune’s MCA Stadium. His lethal deliveries showcased a blend of pace and precision, allowing India to restrict New Zealand to a manageable total.

    Sundar’s spectacular spell reminded fans of his potential as India’s emerging bowling star, and his performance instilled renewed hope in a series where India desperately needed an edge.
