@xami0780 Remember the generosity by crowd by applauding for Pak players after their win whereas they cheated claiming a dropped catch of Ganguly as a wicket
In 1990, Sarla Bhat, 27, was working as a staff nurse at Srinagar’s SKIMS hospital to support her family, even as fear forced her community to flee.
On April 15, 1990, Sarla was abducted from her hostel. For four agonizing days, JKLF terrorists subjected her to brutal torture and sexual assault. When her body was dumped in Mallabagh on April 19, her killers had carved the acronym "JKLF" directly into her flesh from a knife.
The horror continued for her family. When Sarla’s bullet-ridden body returned to Anantnag, the neighborhood was already a ghost town emptied by the exodus. Marooned and helpless, the grieving family could not find enough people to carry her to a funeral pyre. As they attempted her final rites, a grenade was hurled at their home. This targeted terror forced the last remaining Hindu families to flee.
Systemic apathy followed. Though a police complaint was filed in 1990, the file was buried. It took until 2025 for a Special Investigation Agency to reopen the case, naming four terrorists. Two are dead, one is absconding, and one is imprisoned: Yasin Malik, who was once pampered as a Damaad by New Delhi, invited to the high table as one of the esteemed "stakeholders in the Kashmir peace talks." Yesterday, chargesheet was filed in this case.
Sarla’s case is not isolated. Thousands of women faced similar brutality in Kashmir during the late 1980s and 1990s, leaving behind stories that have been completely erased from the records today.

India’s nationalist awakening without #VeerSavarkar is incomplete.
The Ironman is widely regarded as one of the toughest endurance events in the world. It is a grueling single-day test of stamina and determination. Participants must complete a 3.8 km swim, a 180 km cycling ride, and a full 42.2 km marathon, all back to back.
On 10 May, my son Nandil, currently in his fifth year at the National Law School of India University in Bengaluru, took on this extraordinary challenge at Ironman Vietnam. After just 7-8 months of preparation, he completed the challenge in approximately 16 hours.
As a father, it fills me with immense pride to see his discipline, determination and perseverance. I wish him the very best for the journey ahead and for many more milestones in life.
हर आम भारतीय की ज़िंदगी आज ऐसी ही नर्क की यातना बन गई है।
सिस्टम सत्ता के सामने बिक चुका है। सब एक-दूसरे की पीठ थपथपाते हैं और मिलकर जनता को रौंदते हैं।
देश में लालच की महामारी फैल चुकी है, शहरी सड़न जिसका सबसे डरावना चेहरा है।
हमारा समाज इसलिए मर रहा है क्योंकि हमने इस सड़न को “New Normal” मान लिया है - सुन्न, निशब्द, बेपरवाह।
जवाबदेही की मांग करो, वरना यह सड़न हर दरवाज़े तक पहुंचेगी।
