Mahua, just four months ago, you sent 13 policemen from Krishnanagar to arrest & intimidate me for quoting a tweet about you. Instructed them to create a nuisance in my neighbourhood to sully my image.

You slapped 12 non-bailable FIRs on me, which were quashed by the High Court

Heartbroken & so inspired 💔💔🙏🏽

The Commonwealth Games is becoming a daily roll-call of young Indians who have emerged from unimaginable hardship & horrors to win gold.

Look at 23-year-old judoka Asmita Dey, who is now the first Indian to win Commonwealth Games gold in the women’s 48kg category.

7 months ago, she lost her father to a brain stroke. A bicycle mechanic who earned barely ₹300 a day, he raised his family in a mud house in a small village in Tripura. When a knee injury threatened Asmita’s career, he found the money to take her to Delhi for treatment.

Even as the family mourned, Asmita’s mother urged her daughter to return to training, believing that abandoning the dream would betray everything her father had sacrificed for.

She now stands on top of the Commonwealth Games podium with a gold medal around her neck.

People ask why England always hosts the final of the World Test Championship. This is not actually shameless bias on the part of the ICC. Rather, it is because they need a guaranteed neutral venue.

Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS) athletes are creating history!

Another TOPS Core athlete, Murali Sreeshankar, has won silver at the Commonwealth Games 2026.

The way the PM Modi govt has identified, groomed and supported talented young athletes is remarkable.

The govt does not get enough credit for the robust sports infrastructure and support system it has built!

This is a gem!

When Kalyan Singh was CM and Rajnath Singh was Education Minister, the BJP govt brought an anti-cheating law.

Akhilesh Yadav opposed it, saying we all had cheated once in our lifetime.

Today, he's acting like the messiah of students against paper leaks.
