ये दिल अभी भरा नहीं,
तेरा यूँ चले जाना यक़ीन हुआ नहीं।
आएंगे याद वो पल,
अब वैसा खेल ये रहा नहीं।
Hard to imagine Test cricket without you. Greatest of all will miss you in the white💔
Thank you for the joy, the passion, and the countless smiles you gave us.🐐❤️

Did you notice?
When police entered the plane to arrest the cockroaches, not a single co-passenger resisted.
They didn't even speak a word or raise any slogans in support.
It says everything.
The video from Jamui, Bihar is deeply disturbing.
Two Class 10 students were stopped on a road. Harassed. Humiliated. Molested. A young girl, hands folded, begged to be let go while goons groped her and dragged her away.
Who gave these men the right to behave like this? This is not "culture." It is patriarchy: the belief that any man can police a girl's body, her movement, her choices.
When control is mistaken for culture, and such attitudes are normalised by Andhbhakts, mobs start believing they are the law.
Every individual in that video must be identified and prosecuted under POCSO, and justice must be swift. And if the incident happened on September 19th, why are the culprits not behind bars yet?
And the Bihar government must answer why a girl is not safe on a public road at 7 pm?
बिहार के जमुई का एक वीडियो बहुत बेचैन करने वाला है।
10वीं क्लास के एक छात्र और छात्रा को रास्ते में जबरदस्ती रोक लिया गया। उन्हें प्रताड़ित किया गया, अपमानित किया गया और छात्रा के साथ उत्पीड़न किया गया। बच्ची हाथ जोड़कर उसे जाने देने की विनती करती रही, मगर गुंडे उसे गलत तरीके से छूते और खींचतान करते रहे।
इन लोगों को ऐसी बदतमीज़ी करने का हक किसने दिया? यह "संस्कृति" नहीं है, यह patriarchy है: ये सोच कि किसी भी पुरुष का किसी लड़की के शरीर, उसके आने-जाने और उसकी पसंद-नापसंद पर नियंत्रण है।
जब नियंत्रण को ही संस्कृति मान कर 'अंधभक्त' ऐसी सोच को सामान्य ठहराते हैं, तो भीड़ को लगने लगता है कि वही कानून है।
उस वीडियो में दिख रहे हर व्यक्ति की पहचान होनी चाहिए और उन अपराधियों पर POCSO के तहत मुकदमा चलाकर उन्हें जल्द से जल्द सजा मिलनी चाहिए। और अगर ये घटना 19 सितंबर की है तो गुनहगार अब तक सलाखों के पीछे क्यों नहीं हैं?
और बिहार सरकार जवाब दे कि शाम 7 बजे कोई लड़की राज्य की सड़कों पर सुरक्षित क्यों नहीं है?
No patriot will ever assault Rapid Action Force!
These anarchic elements are on streets!. They have nothing to do with students. They have stones in their hand!
This is exactly how Urban Naxals act!
Do you think this crowd would gather at the same place at the same time without any planning?
They're being handled by some masterminds to start a civil war in the country. They're not students; they're bloody Naxalites and jihadis.
Latest visuals from Connaught Place, Delhi.
Stone-pelting has broken out once again by those claiming to be protesting in the name of students.
Massive crowds have gathered, barricades are being broken, and fresh scenes of chaos are unfolding.
The events of the past few days make one thing increasingly clear: this was never just about students. The stone-pelting, rioting, vandalism, and arson appear to have been part of a premeditated campaign, with political and dark ideological forces operating through proxies to unleash anarchy on the streets.
Peaceful protest is a democratic right. Violence, destruction of public property, and attacks on law enforcement are not. Those responsible, both the perpetrators and those who instigated them, will be identified and held accountable.
What struck me in the Siya Goel - Ketan Aggarwal case is that how much of their lives were online. Their courting photos and videos are easily available. Their private lives were online. Now, if your private life is so public, you are bound to have a secret life.
Shakespeare said, “All the world’s a stage and all the men and women are merely players…” It seems we have taken the quote too seriously. Never in the history of humankind have we been more performative. Our lives are online for everybody to see and comment and judge.
Why did Siya choose murder over dialogue will be something debated by everybody over the coming days. The answer is in the fact that if you choose to say everything from a platform and through a megaphone then you are constantly speaking to be validated by a crowd which is merely voyeuristic. They have no sympathy for you. And that is why you lose the appetite for any kind of intimate, private, one to one conversation and meaningful dialogue.
You lose touch with reality and worse you lose touch with your own self. Instagram, true to its name, has converted you into an addict of instant gratification. You want results without going through the process. Killing the process is the first murder.
Not everybody becomes a murderer. True as it might be, it is not worth losing your self or part of your self too. People who constantly moralise or virtue signal on social media are in the same dangerous zone. We are all in a very dangerous zone.
Scariest part of Ketan Agarwal’s story is that his fiancée had already tried to push him from Lohagad Fort four days before his death. He somehow saved himself by holding onto a tree. When he asked why she pushed him, she said she saw a snake and reacted out of fear. Instead of doubting her, he hugged her and thanked her for saving his life.
When she realized she couldn’t do it alone, four days later she asked her boyfriend for help. This time, both of them succeeded in pushing him from the top.
Very very scary how blind someone can become in love. Never fall so deeply in love that you ignore obvious red flags.
