3 min readMar 14, 2026 03:29 PM IST After Pakistan managed to defeat Bangladesh by 128 runs (DLS Method), Salman Ali Agha faced questions from reporters where he addressed his controversial run out that started a slide for Pakistan team, which lost seven wickets for 43 runs starting with his run out. The incident, which happened in the 39th over of Pakistan innings, hogged headlines with opinion divided about the ‘spirit of cricket’. The incident happened when Mohd Rizwan defended a ball from Bangladesh captain Mehidy Hasan Miraz which went in the direction of Agha, who was at the non-striker’s end. The ball hit Agha’s pads and his bat. And while the Pakistan player was trying to pick up the ball, Miraz came from behind, picked up the ball and threw it at the stumps. The Bangladesh team appealed for a run out, which was given since Agha was out of the crease. Agha was livid at the run out and was seen walking away with plenty to say to the celebrating Bangladesh side. At …

With renewed attention on the actor, many viewers have also started revisiting his hilariously eccentric yet sincere performance in Farah Khan’s madcap comedy Tees Maar Khan.

Image: X For thousands of daily commuters in Bengaluru, the NICE Road has long been a source of both convenience and frustration. While the stretch offers a quick bypass around the city’s notorious traffic, the toll collected from two-wheelers has remained a major point of contention. Unlike State and National Highways across India, where bikers usually ride toll-free, the private corridor has continued to charge riders. Now, after years of public dissatisfaction, a significant policy shift is finally on the horizon. ‘Unfair Charges’ To Be Reviewed? Public Works Minister Satish Jarkiholi has officially assured citizens that the government is moving towards cancelling toll collection for two-wheelers on the NICE Road.

3 min readFeb 15, 2026 04:31 PM IST The pain just won’t go away. Jimmy Neesham was watching the Afghanistan-South Africa game, waiting to leave for the airport, with the whole New Zealand team delaying the bus, glued to the TV at the hotel, reported Cricinfo. Watching the double tie get resolved logically, Neesham who must’ve been one of many to have not found closure after the 2019 ODI WC final, would have stifled a sniffle. He told Cricinfo, “It’s good now that you had the opportunity to play a second Super Over when the first one’s a tie. That would have been nice…” The wordsmith of cricket’s greatest woe – a World Cup decided on a boundary count, denying New Zealand their first ICC 50 Over World title in 2019, as England celebrated, has been hard to process. Neesham, with a wicked wit, had become famous for trying everything and still returning without the Cup because ‘rules are rules.’ The ICC had quietly introduced a second Super Over (or third if needed), after that …

The Karnataka High Court reprimanded the project for accomplishing just 1 km of the proposed 111-km corridor in the last two decades. Additionally, the court noted, none of the five satellite townships planned since 1995 to decongest Bengaluru have been realised. The ruling Congress in Karnataka told the high court that little could be done as the issue is pending before the Supreme Court. During the last winter session of the state assembly, deputy chief minister DK Shivakumar said “even if he …

While passing the order, the bench also extensively examined the background of the BMIC, making several observations.

A division bench of Justice D K Singh and Justice Venkatesh Naik T said that no purpose would be served by keeping the project alive in its present form, as only one kilometre of the proposed expressway has been constructed in over 25 years. The court suggested that it would be in the interest of the city, its citizens, the environment and future development to consider a fresh project while discarding the old framework. “This ambitious project and planning as delineated in the PTR has remained only on paper, even after 30 years …

17 years on, Karnataka HC quashes land acquisition originally obtained for Bengaluru-Mysore Infrastructure Corridor Project | Legal News

Published by Parlour News

The Karnataka High Court recently quashed the acquisition of a one-acre land parcel in Bengaluru South’s Thalaghattapura, originally acquired 17 years ago for the Bengaluru-Mysore Infrastructure Corridor Project (BMICP). The order was passed by a single-judge bench of Justice KS Hemalekha on December 5 and made public Wednesday. In this case, the owner, one Rathna Reddy, had approached the court against the acquisition, claiming to be the owner who was still in possession of the property. The petitioner claimed that despite 17 years passing since the final acquisition notification in 2008, the state had neither awarded compensation nor taken possession; moreover, there was a June 2025 order from the Planning Office of the BMICP which stated that no ramp/link interchange, etc, was planned on that particular survey number property. The petitioner also pointed to proceedings before the Supreme Court, where the Karnataka government had filed an affidavit stating that 554 acres of excess land had been handed over, with no further land to be delivered. Before the bench, Reddy’s counsel argued that the acquisition proceedings …
