Now actor Aayush Sharma, Salman Khan’s brother-in-law, has received a similar threat via email. Police are currently investigating the source of the mail. Meanwhile, the Federation of Western Cine Employees has jumped into action to speak for the Hindi film fratrenity. The sender of the mail demanded ransom from the actor in the form of cryptocurrency.

Hockey India League: Bengal Tigers qualify for Women’ HIL final after prevailing against SG Pipers in tense sudden death | Hockey News

The two teams that missed the cut for the final in the inaugural edition of Women’s Hockey India League will now clash for the title in the second season. For the second time in the league phase this year, there was nothing to separate Bengal Tigers and SG Pipers after four quarters of regulation time, and sudden death in the penalty shootout was required to determine who takes the bonus point, where Tigers prevailed 7-6 after 10 attempts for each team. With Tigers securing two points, Ranchi Royals were eliminated from the race for top two while Pipers had already qualified for the final that will be played on Saturday. The script was a bit different this time around as the first meeting between them ended in a high-scoring 3-3 draw, while the reverse fixture in Ranchi on Tuesday was a tense goalless affair. The Pipers were under defensive pressure for most of the evening but managed to keep the tournament’s leading goalscorer Agustina Gorzelany quiet from Penalty Corners, thanks largely to some excellent first-rushing …

‘Prevailing discrimination and inequality obstruct people from becoming knowledgeable’

Du. Saraswathi, a social activist, said that the prevailing caste and gender-based discrimination and inequality have deprived people of becoming knowledgeable. She delivered a talk on Food Systems, Women, and the Knowledge Question, on Friday, as part of a three-day convention on Knowledge in Society, at Shankarghatta. Ms. Saraswathi stated that because of inequality and discrimination, the marginalised sections including women, Adivasis, and Dalits have been forgotten. “We have not become knowledgeable in the real sense because of discrimination and inequality,” she said. Referring to her field study to understand food systems, she said that women had excellent knowledge of plants and animals. Any woman could identify more than 50 leafy vegetables and very well understood the anatomy of animals, which they normally cut to prepare food. “We do not treat their understanding about the nutritional value of food items and the diversity they brought to the food system as knowledge,” she said. Further, she pointed out that many women with vast knowledge about food might not have a language to communicate their understanding in …
