https://ift.tt/QbT7ntx Monday's Supreme Court order on the Waqf (Amendment) Act was not a good one for protecting Waqf properties despite certain clauses being stayed, AIMIM President Asaduddin Owaisi has said. In an exclusive interview on Thursday, Mr Owaisi also spoke about the possibility of an alliance with the opposition INDIA bloc for the upcoming Bihar elections and explained why he opposed the India-Pakistan clash during the Asia Cup on Sunday.  In its order, the Supreme Court said the collector cannot be the final arbiter of disputes related to Waqf property ownership, stayed the requirement that only a person practising Islam for five years can dedicate property as Waqf and capped the requirement of non-Muslims in state Waqf boards and the central council. Asked about his reaction to the order, Mr Owaisi said, "The government is not at all interested in protecting the Waqf system. They have called it an idea that is alien to our country. And with the Supreme Court...

https://ift.tt/17OJCHf A TikTok series by a man in Panama has triggered global speculation about alien life after he claimed a meteorite had landed in his backyard and begun "transforming like Venom" (a Marvel character). As the post gained traction, users started decoding what the substance could be, and one Reddit user debunked the Venom theory by presenting scientific explanation of the phenomenon. The TikTok user @kinpanama uploaded the videos on August 29 that showed a rock-like object appearing to ooze a greenish-yellow substance, and later darkening into a sticky black coating. He alleged it gave off a burning smell and said universities ignored his attempts to seek help. More footage of the ALIEN ENTITY that has grown from a meteorite that fell on earth at least more than 6 days ago.👀🛸👽 This is honestly some of the most fascinating and creepiest stuff I have seen on UFO UAP ET and NHI Aliens.

https://ift.tt/aNOXo3S Actor Manoj Bajpayee has revealed that he and his Jugnuma ( The Fable ) director Raam Reddy went to the famed Neem Karoli Baba Ashram Kainchi Dham in Uttarakhand before they started shooting on the film. Set in the late 1980s in the Himalayas, Jugnuma is steeped in magical realism, explores themes such as generational trauma, class, superstition, and mysticism.

https://ift.tt/oiCyWQX Maybe it was nerves from being in the presence of royalty or perhaps it was a simple mistake, but there have been quite a few gaffes by US presidents and first ladies toward members of the British royal family over the years. As President Donald Trump prepares to embark on a state visit with King Charles III in England this week, here's a look back at some of the better-known faux pas, including one of Trump's own: President Jimmy Carter attended a summit dinner at Buckingham Palace in 1977. The newly elected president hailed from Georgia and had strong Southern roots. He entered the event with members of the royal family, and together they posed for photographs. It was rumored that Carter kissed the Queen Mother on the lips during a greeting. Carter later said that he kissed her on the cheek, but British tabloids ran with the story for years. President George W. Bush hosted Queen Elizabeth II at the White House in 2007. Upon her arrival, Bush gave...

https://ift.tt/NBQ5ske A truck driven by a drunk man ploughed into pedestrians and vehicles in Indore, leaving at least three people dead and several others critically injured. Witnesses described scenes of horror, with bodies lying mangled on the road and screams of panic filling the air. The death count, officials fear, may rise as many victims are critical. Police said the out-of-control truck entered a restricted area in Shikshak Nagar on Airport Road on Monday and rammed a crowd of people as well as 10 vehicles. "The driver was heavily drunk.

"The driver has been caught and taken to Malharganj police station." Witnesses said many of the bodies were badly crushed, with parts scattered on the road.

https://ift.tt/MIvn32u Legendary fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar has backed India to annihilate Pakistan in their much-talked-about Asia Cup 2025 clash in Dubai on Sunday. In a recent discussion on a Pakistani show, Akhtar reserved high praise for the Suryakumar Yadav -led side, claiming that the current lot is one of the most dominating T20I sides ever. "It is pretty obvious they are going to dominate you. They are gonna make sure that they hammer you. That's very simple. If I stretch it far, when it comes to making a statement, they would like to play against Afghanistan in the final, not Pakistan," said Akhtar, during a discussion on 'Game On Hai'. ( Asia Cup 2025 LIVE Score: India vs Pakistan Live Updates | Follow here ) Former Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq was quick to point out that this Indian team doesn't have the experience of Virat Kohli , who would bat through the innings even if they lost a few early wickets.

https://ift.tt/ife5MJB A 73-year old Sikh woman has been detained by immigration authorities in California after she went for a routine check-in with the US agency, sparking protests and concerns among her family and members of the community. Harjit Kaur, who has lived in the East Bay in Northern California for more than 30 years, was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials during a routine check-in earlier this week, a report in Berkeleyside, a nonprofit news portal, said.

https://ift.tt/Asx3lGE In Bihar's politics, prohibition has always remained a controversial, deeply debated subject, and it is becoming increasingly so with the Assembly elections just months away. In April 2016, the Nitish Kumar government implemented a ban on the sale and consumption of liquor across the state, and the official justification was that it would improve law and order, reduce domestic violence, and improve social as well as health standards. Nine years on, however, both the benefits and the drawbacks of the liquor ban are still sharply contested. Recently, former chief minister and leader of the Hindustani Awam Morcha, Jitan Ram Manjhi, made a striking statement on prohibition. The sale of liquor in moderate amounts, the NDA ally had said, should be allowed and cases registered against such people must be withdrawn. His remarks not only intensified the debate around the liquor ban but also exposed political and social contradictions. When Chief Minister Nitish Ku...

https://ift.tt/gLmvWEJ India's batting coach Sitanshu Kotak on Friday said the team's focus has solely been on cricket since the BCCI "aligned itself" with the government's decision to play against Pakistan in the Asia Cup, brushing aside the noise around the politically charged contest. The traditional rivals will face off on Sunday in what will be the first match between the two sides since the escalation of the border conflict in May, when India launched strikes on terror infrastructure in Pakistan after 26 tourists were killed in a dastardly attack in Pahalgam. "Once BCCI said they are aligned with the government's decision, our focus was always on the match. It's India versus Pakistan, and it will be an interesting game," Kotak told mediapersons on the sidelines of India's training session at the ICC Academy ground. "India versus Pakistan is always a competitive game," he added. Asked whether the cricketers can truly remain u...
