‘The Nehru-Gandhi family deserves the titles of traitor, deceiver’: Nishikant Dubey

Hitting out at the Congress and Nehru-Gandhi family, Bharatiya Janata Party MP Nishikant Dubey on Wednesday described the June 3, 1947 partition plan as the “Mountbatten-Nehru-Jinnah agreement”, terming it as the reason behind the problems that emerged in Jammu and Kashmir. In a post on X, Dubey described the agreements as a “dark chapter” in Congress’s history and claimed that water from key rivers was shared with Bangladesh at the cost of India’s own needs. (Sansad TV/ANI Video Grab) In an ‘X’ post, Dubey opined that the foundation of India’s partition was laid during the meetings held in Shimla between May 10 to 12, 1947, adding that Kashmir was kept separate in the agreement. He also accused the Congress of keeping Mahatma Gandhi “out of consent” about the agreement, stressing that “Nehru-Gandhi family that deserves the titles of traitor, deceiver, and national betrayer.” “On June 3, 1947–exactly this day–Mountbatten announced in Delhi the creation of two countries, India and Pakistan. This declaration, built upon the edifice of Nehru ji’s debauchery, stands as one of the …

Sonakshi Sinha says nepotism doesn’t deserves so much attention: ‘That’s how the world works’

Sonakshi Sinha says nepotism doesn’t deserves so much attention: ‘That’s how the world works’

Sonakshi Sinha got a dream debut opposite Salman Khan in his hit film Dabangg. But despite being the daughter of veteran star Shatrughan Sinha, it wasn’t her father who lobbied for her entry into films. Salman reportedly saw her working as an usher at an event and decided to cast her. Since then, Sonakshi has carved her own path in the industry. In a recent interaction, she spoke about nepotism and why she feels the topic is often over-discussed. Sonakshi Sinha with her father Shatrughan Sinha. ‘Tough fathers make strong daughters’ Speaking to News18, Sonakshi admitted that her father never told her he would produce a film for her. She also shared that although many people viewed him as a strict father, he was always soft and honest with her. She said, “Tough fathers make really resilient and strong daughters. My dad, on the other hand, has always been very soft on me but very, very honest too. But his main thing has been that I’ll have to prove myself on my own. His approach …

You just give it to him boss, he deserves it more than you do: How Sanju Samson made peace with Ishan Kishan | Cricket News

2 min readMay 11, 2026 08:24 PM IST India opener Sanju Samson who starred in their T20 World Cup triumph earlier this year has revealed how he made peace with Ishan Kishan taking his spot in the XI at the start of the tournament. Despite being the first-choice opener and wicketkeeper in the two years leading up to the tournament, dip in form which caused low scores meant Samson had to give his spot to Ishan in the XI. Though Samson would make a stunning comeback and go on to have a memorable T20 World Cup and walk away with the Man of the Tournament award, the CSK opener said what the arrival of Ishan did to him. “Honestly Ishan Kishan, he came in the squad out of nowhere. He had a great Mustaq Ali, he won the championship for Jharkhand and he has also had a great story boss,” Samson told CSK podcast with Abhinav Mukund. “We only look at ourselves right. I think I have worked day in and day out, but lately …

Why HS Prannoy thinks India’s Thomas Cup bronze deserves applause, not silence

Why HS Prannoy thinks India’s Thomas Cup bronze deserves applause, not silence

Cold, cussed, unemotional math data says if India’s Thomas Cup team seeding was 8th, then a semifinal (last 4) finish was them punching above their weight in badminton’s team World Cup. Thailand (with World No 2 Kunlavut Vitidsarn), Indonesia (with World No 5 Jonatan Christie), and Japan (with World No 9 Kodai Naraoka) – considered well-rounded powerhouses of international badminton- did not reach the 2026 Thomas Cup semifinals. Chinese Taipei, with two Taiwanese in the Top 10 – Chou Tien Chen at No 6, and Lin Chun-Yi at No 8, did not make the last 4 either – incidentally defeated by India, whose two singles players getting them the win, were ranked No 11 and a fresh entrant to the Top 20 – Ayush Shetty, at No 18. The devil is on social media, the details are on the ranking charts, and the drop-down recent results. “The bronze was not easy to win,” a calm HS Prannoy told a SAI-facilitated interaction, on his return two days ago. “India was seeded 8th, and we were never …

Neither Arijit Singh Deserve Such A Forgetful Farewell Nor Sai Pallavi Deserves Such ‘Pheeka-Ishq’ Debut!

Neither Arijit Singh Deserve Such A Forgetful Farewell Nor Sai Pallavi Deserves Such ‘Pheeka-Ishq’ Debut!

Ek Din Music Review: Neither Arijit Singh Did Not Deserve This Farewell! (Photo Credit –YouTube) Do you remember the time when Aamir Khan decided to strike a social chord with the audience with his talk show Satyameva Jayate? I do not know about everyone else, but for me, one of the exciting parts of that show was the theme song at the end of each episode, beautifully written by various lyricists and composed beautifully by Ram Sampath! So obviously, I was looking forward to the music of Ek Din, composed by him. Starring Junaid Khan and marking Sai Pallavi’s debut in Hindi Cinema, the film is produced by Aamir Khan Productions. Ram Sampath is a gifted music composer. I fell in love with him when I first heard him singing Dheere Dheere Haule Haule, a liberating song on sexual abuse, that was featured in one of the episodes of Satyameva Jayate. Meanwhile, the songs of Ek Din are written by Irshad Kamil, and he does not need an introduction. Right from the moment I first heard …
