🚨Lionel Messi was asked why he was emotional after Argentina’s victory over England to reach the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final.
🎙️ Reporter: “Leo, we saw you in tears after the final whistle. Why did this one mean so much?”
🗣️ Lionel Messi:
“Because this wasn’t an easy match. During the game, I could hear them telling each other, ‘Double up on him… go for his legs… don’t let him turn.’ They tried everything to make life difficult for me, and that’s football. I understand it.
England are a very strong team. They made us suffer for long periods. There were moments when it felt like every touch I took had two or three players around me.
But this Argentina team doesn’t know how to give up. That’s our greatest strength. Even when things become difficult, nobody drops their head. We keep believing until the very end.
When I looked at the scoreboard and saw there were less than ten minutes left, I felt a rush through my body. I told myself, ‘This is the moment. We have to find one more chance.’
That’s why I never stop asking for the ball. In matches like these, one pass, one movement or one decision can change everything.
The tears came because I know what this means to our people. I saw our supporters in the stands, I thought about my family and I thought about everyone in Argentina who has been with us through every high and every low.
Reaching another World Cup final is something very special, but our work isn’t finished. We didn’t come here just to reach the final. We came here to try and bring the World Cup back to Argentina one more time.”
Must watch 🚨

An Indian was sitting in a compartment with the Englishmen on the same train.
The compartment was packed with Englishmen. They were all making fun of the Indian. Some were saying, "Look at this specimen who has boarded the train," while others, seeing his attire, laughed at him, calling him a fool. Some were so angry that they cursed the train and shouted, "Why did you let an Indian board the train? Get him out of the compartment."
But this had no effect on the man, dressed in a dhoti-kurta, a black coat, and a turban. He sat with a calm, serious expression, as if lost in thought.
The train was moving at a fast speed, and the English continued to mock and insult the Indian at the same pace. But suddenly, the man got up from his seat and shouted, "Stop the train!" Before anyone could understand, he pulled the train chain. The train stopped.
Now, it seemed as if the British were raging. Everyone was abusing him. They were hurling abuses at him, hurling all the words in the dictionary, like "illiterate," "unintelligent," and "illiterate." But the man stood quietly, with a serious expression, as if unaffected by anyone's words. His silence only increased the British's anger.
The train guard came running. "Who stopped the train?" he asked in a stern voice.
Before any Englishman could speak, the man spoke up, "I stopped it, sir."
Are you crazy? This is your first time riding a train? You know that stopping a train without reason is a crime," the guard said angrily.
Yes, sir! I know, but if I hadn't stopped the train, hundreds of people would have died.
Hearing the man's words, everyone burst into laughter. But, unfazed, he said confidently, "There are broken tracks about a furlong from here. You can walk over and see if you want."
The guard and some other English passengers accompanied him. Throughout the journey, the English were leaving no stone unturned in teasing him.
But everyone's eyes widened when they saw that the track was indeed broken at the distance indicated. The nuts and bolts were exposed. Now, all those faces, including the guard's, who had been calling the Indian a fool, an ignorant person, and a madman, looked at him curiously, as if asking, "How did you know this from such a distance?"
The guard asked, "How did you know the track was broken?"
He said, "Sir, everyone on the train was busy with their own work. At that time, my attention was focused on the train's speed. The train was moving at its normal speed. But suddenly, I felt a change in its speed due to the vibration of the track. This happens when the track is broken at some distance. So, without wasting a moment, I pulled the chain to stop the train."
The guard and the Englishman standing there were stunned. The guard asked, "Such detailed technical knowledge! You don't seem like an ordinary person. Please introduce yourself."
The man politely replied: "Sir, I am Mokshagundam Visvesvaraya, an Indian engineer..."
Yes! That extraordinary and highly intelligent man was none other than Sir M. Vishveshwaraya.
In India, 15 September, his birthday, is celebrated every year as Engineers' Day to honor his legacy and the contributions of engineers to society.
A few days ago, my #vlog on the Indus Waters Treaty was widely discussed across social media. Interestingly, the reactions came not only from India, but also from circles associated with the Pakistani narrative. Many viewers shared strategic, emotional, and technical perspectives.
Looking at the strong public mood and intense debate, I decided to produce another analytical yet satirical vlog based on some of those reactions.
Meanwhile, Pakistan’s senior advisor Rana Sanaullah issued a televised warning over water-related issues, adding a fresh geopolitical twist to the discussion.
But is Pakistan really facing an external water threat… or an internal water management crisis?
“The enemy is just 40 meters away from us, we are out numbered and running out of the ammunition; we need fire upon our own coordinate”,

“Bofors is a medium artillery gun with a killing range of 300 meters. The splinters will go flying on all direction. Chances are that you guys will not survive either.”
MAJOR GURPREET MADHOK
“We will not survive in any case sir. We have run out of ammunition and I need the bloody fire here right now.” CAPTAIN CARIAPPA
“Roger! Fire shall be upon you in minutes. Take cover if you can. God bless you”.
MAJOR GURPREET
Bofors come alive.
After a while when Bofors calm down, the paratroopers starts stepping out of the cover one by one. It was difficult to believe that all the 14 of them from 5 PARA have survived.
CAPTAIN CARIAPPA goes to each man & hugs him saying “ Saale tu bhi bach gaya”.
On the other side more than 23 bodies of pakis from 33 FRONTIER FORCE were scattered on the slope in front of them.
All this happened in 1999 the #KargilWar.
Blessings and good wishes for the living legend

A tweet from Dmitry Medvedev excites the Orange Grump enough to order the redeployment of the two nuclear submarines against Russia.
Two issues:
1. The US nuclear triade already covers all corners of Russia and such a redeployment makes no difference.
2. The Dead Hand defence protocol of Russia allows all Russian nuclear missiles to fire back in case the US carries out a preemptive nuclear strike on Russia. The Russian nuclear assets don't need specific order to fire back as per this protocol. Needless to say that the Russian missiles cover whole of the US and NATO.
Both issues listed above illustrate mental bankruptcy of the Orange Grump who is pulling this world into WW3 every passing day.
BTW, the latest Russian submarine carries 97 nukes and the CIA is sweating trying to find out its exact location.

Batukeshwar Dutta was the one who had planned and exploded two smoke bombs, along with Bhagat Singh in the Central Legislative Assembly in New Delhi on 8 April 1929.
While Bhagat Singh was sentenced in Saunder's case, Batukeshwar Dutt was sent to Cellular Jail in 1931. He was made to extract 18 KG oil like a bull, everyday. He worked 16 hours everyday for the next 5 years. In 1936 he was released as he fell extremely ill. Upon his release he contracted Tuberculosis and continued his Freedom Movement. He was arrested again in 1942 and was imprisoned.
Following India's independence in 1947, Batukeshwar Dutt faced severe financial hardship and neglect. He struggled to find suitable employment despite his significant contributions to the struggle against British rule. Reports indicate that he sought government assistance for employment but was not provided with a job. No one responded to his letters in which he sought a Group D clerk job. He was left to die in poverty while the PM wore expensive jackets.
On 20th July 1965, at the age of 54 and body weight just 27, Batukeshwar Dutta died at AIIMS New Delhi. He was cremated in Hussainiwala near Ferozepur in Punjab where the bodies of his friends Bhagat Singh, Shivaram Rajguru and Sukhdev Thapar were also cremated. THAT WAS HIS LAST WISH.

Yes!! That's how we treated our freedom fighter
Massive recency bias but that catch from Axar Patel is the 21st century version of Kapil Dev’s iconic take off Viv Richards at Lord’s in the 1983 World Cup final #T20WorldCup
In Bharat, we call it ‘joint family’. And we are told constantly by woke feminists that it is ‘suffocating’. But reinvent it in a Gora household and call it ‘intergenerational living’ and suddenly, it becomes ‘cool’!
On this RepublicDay, as the Tricolour rises over the Himalayas at @iit__mandi, we are reminded that the Constitution is our moral compass. In AmritKaal 2026, patriotism means research that heals and innovation that serves. As an IIT in the lap of the Himalayas, our mandate is clear: technology in harmony with nature, science in service of society.
Warm Republic Day greetings to the Nation and the entire IIT Mandi family as we march together towards a #ViksitBharat, i.e. Atmanirbhar, advanced, and compassionate.
Jai Hind! Jai Bharat!

A man dies and goes to hell. There, he finds that there is a different hell for each country.
He goes to the German hell and asks, "What do they do there?"
He is told, "First, they put you in an electric chair for an hour. Then they lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. Then the German devil comes in and beats you for the rest of the day."
The man doesn't like it, so he moves on and checks out the American hell, the Russian hell and the hells of other countries. He finds that they're all more or less the same as the German hell.
Then he comes to the Indian hell and finds that there is a long queue of people waiting to get in. Amazed, he asks, "What do they do here?" He is told, "First, they put you in an electric chair for an hour. Then they lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. Then the Indian devil comes in and beats you for the rest of the day."
"But that is exactly the same as all the other hells; so why are so many people waiting to get in here?" wonders the man. He is told, "Because the maintenance here is so bad that the electric chair does not work, someone has stolen all the nails from the bed, and the Indian devil is a former government servant who just comes, signs the attendance register and then goes to the canteen!"
