    Sukhbir Badal’s Close Call: Heroic Police Save Him from Assassination

    Sukhbir Singh Badal, a leader of the Shiromani Akali Dal party, thanked two brave Punjab Police officers who saved his life during an attack on him. Badal met and hugged Assistant Sub-Inspectors (ASIs) Jasbir Singh and Hira Singh, who are part of his security detail, after the incident on Wednesday near the Golden Temple.

    In a post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Badal praised their courage, saying, “It’s not easy to risk your life for someone else. My family and I will always be grateful for their bravery.”

    The attack happened when a former Khalistani terrorist named Narain Singh Chaura tried to shoot Badal but missed. Thanks to the quick actions of plainclothes police officers, the attacker was caught.

    Amritsar Police Commissioner Bhullar stated they are investigating the attack, looking into various angles to see if any organization helped Chaura or if he acted alone for attention.

    How did ASIs Jasbir Singh and Hira Singh save Badal? When Jasbir Singh noticed the danger, he jumped on the shooter, grabbing his hands and pushing him away. This quick thinking, along with other officers’ help, stopped the attack.

    The shooting was filmed by reporters covering Badal’s religious service at the Golden Temple. Badal was there for a traditional penance (tankhah) for past mistakes during his time in government from 2007 to 2017.

    Narain Singh Chaura, who has a troubled past with terrorism, was taken into police custody for three days after the attack.

    Initial investigations show that Chaura acted on his own and was “self-motivated.” Police are checking if there might be a bigger plan behind the attack but so far, it looks like Chaura was upset about a decision made against Badal during a recent consideration of a past case.

    The gun used in the attack was unregistered, and police are trying to find out how Chaura got it. CCTV footage showed Chaura speaking with a police officer the day before the attack, which raised concerns about security measures at the Golden Temple.

    The attack sparked anger among political leaders. The Congress party criticized the Punjab government for poor security, while the BJP called it a serious failure in law and order.

    Remembering Dr. B.R. Ambedkar: Mahaparinirvan Diwas 2023

    Mumbai: Remembering Dr. B.R. Ambedkar on Mahaparinirvan Diwas
    On December 6, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Deputy Chief Ministers Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar came together at Shivaji Park to honor Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, a key figure in Indian history. This day, known as Mahaparinirvan Diwas, marks the anniversary of Dr. Ambedkar’s passing.

    Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, born on April 14, 1891, was a great lawyer, economic thinker, politician, and social reformer. He fought hard for the rights of Dalits (the lower castes) and worked for equality, women’s rights, and workers’ rights. He dedicated his life to ending caste discrimination and believed in fairness for everyone.

    The term “Mahaparinirvan” means “nirvana after death,” and this day is very important for Buddhists, as it symbolizes liberation from the continuous cycle of life and death. Dr. Ambedkar played a significant role in drafting the Indian Constitution and was awarded the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest honor, in 1990.

    Dr. Ambedkar left us on December 6, 1956, in Delhi, but his incredible legacy continues to inspire many today.

    Ola Electric Under Scrutiny: CCPA Notices and Market Challenges

    Ola Electric will be in the spotlight this Friday because the Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) has asked for more information from the company. This is regarding a notice they sent earlier about possible problems with how Ola Electric treats its customers. Ola Electric received this email on December 4 and has 15 days to reply.

    Citi Research recently started covering Ola Electric and set a target price of Rs 90 for its shares. They noted that while the company is facing challenges with its service, these issues are expected to improve over time as the supply chain stabilizes.

    On Thursday, Ola Electric shares ended at Rs 98.5, a slight increase of 0.11%, while the Sensex index went up by 1%. In the past three months, Ola Electric’s shares have dropped by 14.5%. The company’s market value is currently Rs 43,446 crore.

  • Pushpa 2 Smashes Records with Historic Opening Day Earnings!

    Pushpa 2 Smashes Records with Historic Opening Day Earnings!

    The movie ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule,’ starring Allu Arjun, has broken records and become the Indian film with the highest first-day earnings ever. On its opening day, it made a jaw-dropping Rs 175 crore, according to Niftystat.

    This film outperformed SS Rajamouli’s ‘RRR,’ which made Rs 156 crore on its first day. It is the first Indian movie to earn over Rs 50 crore in two languages—Telugu and Hindi—on the same day. The Hindi version did especially well, making around Rs 65-67 crore and surpassing Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Jawan.’

    On December 5, 2024, the movie had amazing attendance, with 80.14% of seats filled for the Telugu version and 51.53% for the Hindi version. Experts believe the second day might see a slight drop in earnings, predicting around Rs 120-140 crore. However, with strong demand, especially in popular areas, the Hindi version alone might bring in another Rs 50 crore.

    About ‘Pushpa 2’

    Directed by Sukumar, the movie continues the story of Pushpa Raj, a red sandalwood smuggler. Allu Arjun gives a powerful performance that secures his position as one of 2024’s biggest stars. Fahadh Faasil is back as SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat, and Rashmika Mandanna returns as Srivalli. New cast member Jagapathi Babu adds even more excitement.

    The first film,’Pushpa: The Rise,’ released during the pandemic, became a global hit, earning Rs 326.6 crore worldwide and winning Allu Arjun a National Award for Best Actor. With ‘Pushpa 2,’ the series has reached new heights and set remarkable box office records.

  • Hannah Kobayashi Missing: Family Fears for Safety Amid Confusing Search

    Hannah Kobayashi Missing: Family Fears for Safety Amid Confusing Search

    Hannah Kobayashi, a 30-year-old photographer from Hawaii, went missing after missing her flight to New York and getting stuck in Los Angeles. Her sister, Sydni, and their lawyer, Sara Azari, talked about their family’s confusion and worry on NBC News. They said that the police have decided to call Hannah a “voluntary missing person,” meaning they think she left on her own.

    Sydni is very worried because Hannah usually stays in touch. A video showed Hannah crossing into Mexico, and police said she looked okay, but her family is not convinced. The lawyer argued that saying someone is missing voluntarily should come after a more thorough search.

    Sydni sent a message to Hannah, saying how much she is loved and that her family wants her to come home. The family is still hopeful and thanked the police for their help in finding Hannah. Tragically, while searching for her, Hannah’s dad, Ryan Kobayashi, died by suicide.

    If you or someone you know is feeling hopeless or having thoughts of suicide, please reach out for help. You can call the National Suicide Hotline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).

  • Nitish Reddy’s Journey: From Kohli Fan to Test Player!

    Nitish Reddy’s Journey: From Kohli Fan to Test Player!

    Nitish Kumar Reddy: From Dreaming of Kohli to Playing Alongside Him

    Nitish Kumar Reddy, a 21-year-old cricketer, recently shared his exciting journey from being a fan of Virat Kohli to making his Test debut for India in Perth. Growing up, Nitish always dreamed of playing cricket with his idol, Virat. He often thought about how old he would be when he finally had the chance to play alongside him before Kohli retired.

    That dream came true when Kohli gave him his first Test cap before India played Australia. India won the match by an impressive 295 runs, starting the series with a big lead. After his debut, a photo of Nitish taking a selfie with Kohli went viral. In the picture, Kohli was a bit far away and not looking at the camera, but Nitish found it special and called it his “safety photo.” He said, “I took this picture because I might not get another chance. It reminds me of my childhood dreams.”

    During the game, Nitish was more excited about Kohli’s performance than his own. Nitish shared, “I was watching Kohli closely as he approached his hundred. I didn’t even realize I was close to my own fifty. I was so thrilled when he scored his 81st hundred—it was an amazing moment!”

    KL Rahul’s Helpful Advice

    Nitish also talked about how he felt nervous being around more experienced players. But KL Rahul helped him feel comfortable. “At first, I was worried about talking to everyone. I always felt good talking to KL bhai. He gives me great advice,” Nitish explained.

    One important tip from Rahul stuck with Nitish: “Macha, when you’re out there, don’t rush. Just take it slow.” This was helpful for him, especially since everything felt so fast during his first match. He was thankful for Rahul’s support.

  • Diddy Combs Demands Laptop Access Amid Serious Legal Battle

    Diddy Combs Demands Laptop Access Amid Serious Legal Battle

    Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, the famous rapper and founder of Bad Boy Records, is currently at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn. He was arrested in September and is faced with serious charges like sex trafficking and racketeering, which he completely denies.

    In a recent letter to the court, Diddy expressed worry about not being able to use a laptop for his case. His lawyers say that he needs it to look at important documents related to his trial. They mentioned that a laptop was sent to the MDC for him to use on November 25, 2024, but he still hasn’t been allowed to use it after nine days.

    His attorneys complained that the rules for him are unfair compared to other inmates. They also pointed out that they are worried the government is keeping an eye on Diddy’s handwritten notes, which they consider private. Earlier, the government took away some papers that contained private conversations between Diddy and his lawyers, which shouldn’t have happened.

    Diddy’s lawyers argue that these actions go against his rights, and they want the court to help him get access to the laptop. Diddy, who insists he is innocent, is preparing for a trial set to happen in May 2025.
