#WATCH | Kolkata | TMC MP Mahua Moitra says, "Bengalis are a very proud race. We led the war for independence against the British. Who were the Gujaratis?... 68% of the names of the people who were killed and incarcerated in Kala Pani were Bengalis, followed by Punjabis. Can you name me one Gujarati who was there, apart from your big hero, Veer Savarkar, who only wanted to sit and write apology letters? Please let us know..."

Over the last 11 years, the Modi-led Union Government has filled its coffers with ₹43 lakh crore through repeated hikes in petrol and diesel prices, collecting over ₹1,000 crore every day in taxes. This relentless increase has made life increasingly difficult for common people, yet the BJP government remains engrossed in power and silent about the hardships faced by citizens. Today at the KPCC office, I addressed the media in a joint press conference along with AICC General Secretary Shri @rssurjewala and Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri @siddaramaiah to raise this serious issue. We are asking the Centre a simple question. Where is this money going? Despite such massive tax collection, people in our state are not even receiving an adequate supply of cooking gas. This only reflects the continued neglect of South India by the Union Government. Instead of responding to people’s distress, the Centre seems more interested in putting up its photographs at petrol pumps for publicity. During the UPA government, petrol was ₹71 and diesel was ₹56. Today, both have crossed the ₹100 mark. We urge the BJP-led Union Government to explain this sharp rise in fuel prices and why this burden continues to be placed on ordinary citizens.



Karnataka Minister MB Patil defends the demand for IPL tickets, asking, Dont MLAs have families?” and What is wrong in asking for IPL tickets? But did he show same concern for students protesting for JOBS? Priorities Matters VIP privilege or public entitlement? #VIP ಗಳು ಸರ್


I agree with journalist DP. There is no need to bow before politicians or bureaucrats. KSCA should function independently & build its own infra. Govt & #VIP MLAs must not interfere in private franchise cricket Their role is public affairs & governance not IPL ticket demands




EUROPE: 12 tonnes of KitKat and the truck transporting them were stolen while in transit from central Italy on the way to Poland.



🚨"I bribed the umpire!" Virender Sehwag’s shocking confession about Pakistani umpire Asad Rauf! 😱🏏 🚨 Virendra Sehwag said 🗣️ "There used to be an umpire named Asad Rauf, who was from Pakistan. During a match in Kanpur, Yuvraj Singh got out to a plumb LBW. We all thought he was out, but Rauf gave it 'not out.' When he came out later, I asked him, 'Asad bhai, that was clearly out.' He replied, 'He’s our boy, how can I give Yuvi out? I said, 'I’m also your boy!' He replied, 'Yes, you are, but you don't give me anything!' I asked what he wanted, and he said, 'Nothing much—just a pair of shoes, a hat, glasses, a T-shirt.' Since I was the brand ambassador for Adidas and Oakley at the time, I arranged all of that for him. The next match was in Mohali. I was batting on 92 or 93 when I tried a hard cut shot. There was a clear 'click' sound, and it was so loud that Rahul Dravid even stood up in the dressing room to come out to bat. But the umpire gave it 'not out!' Ricky Ponting ran up to me and asked, 'Did you nick it?' I said, 'Yeah.' Then he went to Asad Rauf and said, 'Veeru is saying he nicked it!' They both came over to me, and Asad Rauf asked, 'Did you nick it?' I said, 'No!' Ponting said, 'He’s lying!' but Asad Rauf saved me that one time, and I went on to score my century."
