PUNE: leader Sanjay Raut on Saturday took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for attending events in Mumbai and campaigning in Bihar even as the Central government is talking about giving a efitting reply to Pakistan over the Pahalgam terror attack. Raut also demanded Union Home Minister Amit Shah's resignation for a security lapse. A big massacre took place in Kashmir. Our Prime Minister said Pakistan will be taught a lesson, but just days later, he was in Mumbai, spending nine hours with Bollywood celebrities. He also campaigned in Bihar and inaugurated a port belonging to Gautam Adani (in Kerala), Raut told reporters. The prime minister was in Mumbai on Thursday at the inauguration of the first World Audio Visual and Entertainment Summit (WAVES). Raut alleged the prime minister's demeanour does not reflect the seriousness of someone preparing to retaliate against Pakistan. While he is in a 'khush mijaaz' (cheerful) mood, we are worried about how to respond to Pakistan, he said. The Shiv Sena (UBT) leader further said while fighter planes may be flying and drills underway, however, such exercises are routine for a country with neighbours like China and Pakistan. I am not a defence expert, but looking at the PM's body language, it doesn't seem like he's preparing for war, he claimed. Asked if India could afford a war in the current situation, Raut said it was not the opposition but the ruling BJP that used the war rhetoric. At the all-party meeting, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh spoke about entering Pakistan and wiping them out. Amit Shah said 'chun chun ke marenge'. Who is stopping you? he asked. Raut blamed Shah for the Pahalgam attack that killed 26 persons and other terror incidents in Kashmir over the past decade. For every terror attack and killing in Kashmir in the last 10 years, Shah is responsible. Why the PM continues to retain him is a mystery. His resignation must be sought. I pity the opposition. They should have demanded his (Shah's) resignation first before offering support, he said. Raut claimed Shah himself had admitted to a lapse in Kashmir's security. If he admits a shortcoming, there must also be consequences. Even if a discussion is held in Parliament, the government will not allow the opposition to speak on the Pahalgam attack, Raut claimed.

'When I didn't see my name in the squad ... ': Suryakumar Yadav
Suryakumar Yadav reflected on his Mumbai Indians debut, revealing pre-game jitters and early struggles before becoming a key player. He recounted his pivotal 2018 season, opening unexpectedly and scoring over 500 runs, and shared insights from the tense 2019 IPL final. He made his IPL debut for Mumbai Indians in the 2012 season, playing against Pune Warriors at the Wankhede Stadium. However, his first outing was short-lived as he was dismissed for a duckthe only game he featured in that season.

IPL 2025: I Barely Slept The Night Before My Debut For Mumbai Indians, Says Suryakumar
The Suryakumar Yadav Experience: Mumbai Indians batter Suryakumar Yadav recently reflected on his debut season for Mumbai Indians in 2011 and said that he barely slept the night before the game. Suryakumar first came into prominence during the 201112 Ranji Trophy season, where he emerged as the top scorer for Mumbai with 754 runs in nine matches. His impressive domestic form earned him a spot in the Mumbai Indians squad the same year. In the 2012 IPL, Suryakumar made his debut for Mumbai Indians against Pune Warriors at the Wankhede Stadium. He played in one match and was dismissed for a duck. This was also the only match he played for MI in that season. After a brief stint, he moved to Kolkata Knight Riders in 2013 and played a key role in their middle order, contributing to their title win in 2014. I barely slept the night before my debut for Mumbai Indians - went to bed around 4 or 5 in the morning. There was so much excitement. Playing for a franchise brings a different kind of buzz. I was just enjoying the moment, thinking about stepping onto the field for warm-up and as soon as I did, I was already sweating. It felt really good, Suryakumar said on JioHotstars special show, The Suryakumar Yadav Experience. In 2018, Suryakumar returned to Mumbai Indians and enjoyed a breakthrough season with 512 runs, becoming a vital part of their batting lineup. His performances in the 2019 and 2020 seasons were instrumental in MI's title runs and eventually led to his much-awaited national team call-up. In 2018, I didnt expect to open. I didnt in the first two games, but then the team management came to me and said they wanted me to take on that responsibility. I was keen, so I embraced it. From there, it was up to me to make the most of the opportunity. I didnt overthink it. Having played all my cricket in Mumbai, I was familiar with the conditions at Wankhede and the pitches. I just kept playing and practicing. I didnt expect to have a season with 500 runs as my previous seasons never went beyond 200, but this felt different. He also recalled the IPL 2019 final between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings, which Mumbai eventually won by one run. Although he didnt directly take part in the last-over decision-making, he was closely observing. I was standing at a distance when Rohit and Malinga were talking. Malinga just said, Dont worry, Ill do it. And he did. That moment taught me how important calmness is in such pressure situations. One of the most emotional moments in his career came in 2020 when he was not picked for the Indian teams tour of Australia. He had been doing well in domestic cricket and also had a good IPL season. Everyone thought I would be selected. Even overseas players were saying the same. When I didnt see my name in the squad, I didnt talk to anyone for 2-3 days. I didnt practice either. Mahela and Zaheer could see that something was wrong, Suryakumar said. From 2021 onwards, Suryakumar has changed the way he approaches T20 batting. Earlier, I was batting at a strike rate of 140150. But the game changed. So I started practicing different shots to stay ahead of the bowlers and captains. I focused on areas where I could score with less risk. My century this season against Sunrisers Hyderabad came because of that practice. Suryakumar has grown into a dependable batter for India and MI, known for his aggressive and inventive shot-making. He was part of Indias victorious squad at the 2024 T20 World Cup and is now leading the national T20 side following Rohit Sharmas retirement. In 160 IPL matches, Suryakumar has scored more than 4,000 runs, including two centuries and 27 half-centuries. From 2021 onwards, Suryakumar has changed the way he approaches T20 batting. Earlier, I was batting at a strike rate of 140150. But the game changed. So I started practicing different shots to stay ahead of the bowlers and captains. I focused on areas where I could score with less risk. My century this season against Sunrisers Hyderabad came because of that practice. Also Read: LIVE Cricket Score Article Source: IANS

RANCHI: In his first reaction to the Pahalgam terror attack after his return from Spain and Sweden on Wednesday, Chief Minister Hemant Soren said that the incident highlights a serious lack in the countrys intelligence system. He expressed hope that such incidents would not occur in the future. However, he added that no amount of condemnation would suffice. This incident deserves all the condemnation it can get, but somewhere the country's information system is lacking. We hope that such an incident does not take place in the future, said CM Hemant Soren. Aiming to make Jharkhand a major global investment destination and attract investors through Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), Chief Minister Hemant Soren, along with his wife Kalpana Soren, the Chief Secretary, and secretaries of select departments, visited Europe from April 19 to 27. Soren returned to Ranchi on Wednesday. Meanwhile, the BJP has sharply criticised CM Sorens visit to Sweden and Spain, calling it a successful tourist trip but a complete failure in terms of attracting investment to Jharkhand. Speaking at a press conference at the party headquarters in Ranchi, State BJP Spokesperson Pratul Shahdeo questioned both the purpose and the financial rationale of the 11-member foreign delegation. He highlighted that the government had sanctioned 4.30 crore for the tour, much of which was handed over to a private event management firm. Reputed travel operators in Ranchi estimate the trip could have been organised for 2.75 lakh per person. Why spend crores through an outside agency? he asked. Demanding clarity on the role of the event management company, especially since the Chief Minister was accompanied by senior officials, Shahdeo said, If the entire trip was government-led, what was the need for outsourcing its management? He further pointed out that despite all the expenditures, no official investment agreements had been announced. Images shared from the tour only mentioned investment possibilitieswithout any signed MoUs or concrete partnerships. The BJP leader also raised concerns about a football-related partnership. While the Chief Minister was seen visiting FC Barcelona, the official tie-up was with RCDE Barcelona Club, a mid-tier Spanish club owned by Chinese businessman Chen Yansheng. The government should have conducted proper due diligence, especially given the owners controversial background and Chinas current geopolitical stance, Shahdeo stated. He also questioned the logic behind visiting Volvo in Sweden to explore electric vehicle technology, noting that such technology is already being developed in Bengaluru and Pune by companies like Volvo and Tata. Shahdeo dismissed reports linking Tesla to the trip, clarifying that the mention referred to the Czech-based Tesla Group AS, not Elon Musks Tesla Inc.

Surat teacher abducts 11-year-old student, caught 390 kilometres away after four-day manhunt
AHMEDABAD: Surat City was left stunned after a 23-year-old teacher abducted her 11-year-old student and fled, but it was a hidden second mobile number that eventually led police to their dramatic capture 390 kilometres away, four days later. The incident unfolded on the afternoon of April 25 when the teacher, a trusted educator, vanished with the young boy in broad daylight, igniting panic and a citywide manhunt. Surat DCP Bhagirath Gadhvi told the media, After intensive investigation, the police arrested the female teacher and the student from Raigad on Tuesday. The investigation revealed that both were facing scolding from their families and ran away due to boredom. The police are continuing the investigation. Initially, investigators faced a dead end. The teacher had cunningly switched off her primary mobile phone shortly after fleeing with the boy from a railway station, erasing all digital trails. CCTV scans of the railway station and local bus stands proved futile, prompting police to suspect the duo had boarded a private bus. But just as the trail began to go cold, officers traced a second, previously unknown mobile number, still active, which turned the case around. With this critical lead, Pune Police deployed a four-member team in a race against time. Around 4:00 a.m., officers intercepted a bus near Shamlaji on the Rajasthan border and pulled the teacher and student off before they could vanish again. The rescue marked the end of a tense four-day pursuit during which the pair had travelled across 390 kilometres from Surat by bus, narrowly staying ahead of the law. Initial interrogation revealed that the teacher and the boy had known each other for three years, with both families frequently in contact. The boy, a fifth-grade student and son of a grocery merchant in Surats Pune area, had been attending her tuition classes, and for the past year, he had become her only private student, a closeness that gradually turned into mutual affection. Pressure from the teachers family to arrange her marriage, along with growing frustration over the boys academic struggles at home, reportedly set the stage for the desperate plan. The teacher is believed to have meticulously planned their escape and convinced the boy to flee with her. CCTV footage from their residential society captured the teacher leaving with the boy, a bag slung over her shoulder, suggesting premeditation. Police launched an intensive search operation, forming four dedicated teams. Further scrutiny of CCTV footage from April 25 and earlier revealed the teacher had arrived at Parvat Patiya in a rickshaw after taking the boy, where she purchased a trolley bag, presumably to carry more belongings. Investigators also discovered that the school bag she carried had been bought two days earlier, further confirming that the abduction was not impulsive. This disturbing case has since shocked the residents of Surat and sparked heated discussions across the city.

HC lawyer Aloor who defended accused in Keralas most gruesome criminal cases, dies at 62
KOCHI: Controversial Kerala High Court lawyer B A Aloor, 62, passed away on Wednesday. He became known for defending the accused in some of the states most sensational and disturbing criminal cases. Aloor, whose full name was Biju Antony Aloor, hailed from Erumappetty in Thrissur. A law graduate from Pune, he enrolled as an advocate in 1999 and practised in various courts across Kerala.

He also appeared for Ameerul Islam, an Assam native convicted in the 2016 rape and murder of LLB student Jisha at Perumbavoor in Ernakulam. Additionally, he briefly represented Pulsar Suni, the prime accused in the 2017 actress abduction case. Among other high-profile cases, Aloor defended the accused in the Elanthoor human sacrifice case, the Dr Vandana Das murder case, the Vismaya dowry death case, and the Koodathayi serial murder case.

After completing my studies at the Pune Film Institute, I packed my bags and reached Kottayam via Madras to shoot a documentary by Aravindettan (G Aravindan). I arrived late after taking several buses. By then, Aravindettan had taken KG Jayan, who was assisting Shaji chettan, forPanchavadi Palam (directed by K G George). Since Jayan was away, Shaji chettan asked me to stay back and assist him on the sets of Panchavadi Palam. Though I had met Shaji chettan earlier, those four or five days on set helped us get to know each other. Later, I worked closely with him alongside KG Jayan in films like Meenamasathile Sooryan (Lenin Rajendran, 1986), Chidambaram (Aravindan, 1985), and Principal Olivil (Gopikrishna, 1985). Because of this association, I got my first independent assignment for Theertham (Mohan, 1987) a project initially meant for Shaji chettan. He actually recommended me to Mohan, calling him directly and asking him to trust me. My second and third films, Eenam Maranna Kattu (Thomas J. Easaw, 1988) and Ore Thooval Pakshikal (Chintha Ravi, 1988), were also meant for him, but he handed them to me. Then came Piravi , his first film as a director my fourth as an independent cinematographer. Having seen my earlier work, he trusted me completely. Piravi was a breakthrough in every sense in its making, cinematography, sound, and editing. Everything happened organically, nature helping us in ways we could not plan. While the director defines the composition and camera movement, lighting the soul of a scene is where a cinematographer truly expresses himself. Except on one occasion, he never interfered with my lighting decisions. Sadly, after Piravi , we never worked together again, though we stayed in touch. One reason was that after Piravi , I received many offers from outside Kerala. There was always hope that we would collaborate again, but it did not happen. That will remain a regret. The last time we met, he told me, Sunny, do not keep enmity with anyone. Life is short. (as told to Rajesh Abraham) Master auteur Shaji N Karun passes away at 73

Nagpur prevail over Pune to face Kolhapur for title
Crackdown on illegal Bangladeshis intensifies across Gujarat
AHMEDABAD: Surat police on Monday found 85 of 136 detained Bangladeshis living in Gujarat and also seized bogus Aadhaar and election cards. Many have entered India through agents charging Rs 10,000 Rs 15,000. Meanwhile, Vadodara police continued their third day of action, grilling over 250 suspects in Navayard. A special Crime Branch team has launched a parallel probe in Surat. Simultaneously, illegal power connections were snapped in Ahmedabads Chandola Lake area home to 143 Bangladeshis, now facing deportation. Adding to the sweep, 10 Bangladeshis were held in Morbi and 29 more in Bharuch, tightening the noose statewide. Tightening the net, a West Bengal IB team landed in Surat on Monday to join forces with Central IB and interrogate suspects, sources confirmed. The move comes after massive combing operations by Surat City Police across Varachha, Pune, and Saroli areas in Zone 1, where over 1,000 individuals including Bengali leaders were screened. During the sweep, 49 suspects were flagged 10 from Varachha and 39 from Pune based on document verification. However, after cross-checking with hometown records, all were released, even as the combing and search drive presses on. Surat Rural SP Hitesh Joysar told the media, So far, 245 suspected Bangladeshis have been detained and intensively interrogated by the Surat Rural Police. Of these, around 60 have been confirmed as Bangladeshi nationals. Deportation proceedings will be initiated after a thorough investigation. Police sources said. The arrested women were involved in casual labour and prostitution. They initially entered through West Bengal and later moved to Surat, where they created bogus documents. Most of them have been found to be in contact with Bangladesh. Those residing illegally will be deported. Vadodara police intensified their search operations for the third straight day, identifying 14 Bangladeshi nationals 9 by city police and 5 by railway authorities. Deportation proceedings are underway as per legal protocols. Meanwhile, 70 suspects are currently being grilled. In Ahmedabad, the crackdown has unearthed 143 Bangladeshis so far. Authorities have released 200 individuals after thorough verification, while 590 were found in possession of valid passports. Alarmingly, investigations revealed that some detainees had been deported up to three times. Officials also discovered that several individuals carried documents from Uttar Pradesh, yet could not even speak Hindi, raising serious questions about the authenticity of their papers.
Master auteur Shaji N Karun passes away at 73
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The world of cinema has lost an icon with the passing of Shaji N Karun, master filmmaker, cinematographer, and one of the countrys most profound visual poets. He was 73. His movies depicted grief, not through grand gestures, but through the small, almost invisible fractures of the heart. His death feels eerily familiar, as if one were living inside one of his own stories. The same heavy silence now wraps his admirers. He is best known for his acclaimed films Piravi (1988), Swaham (1994), Vanaprastham (1999), and Kutty Srank (2009). His debut film Piravi won the National Award for Best Director and received the Camra d'Or Special Mention at the 1989 Cannes Film Festival. Swaham also travelled to Cannes, becoming only the second Indian film to be selected for the competition section. Vanaprastham won widespread national and international recognition. At the time of his passing,he was serving as the chairman of the Kerala State Film Development Corporation. Born in 1952 in Kollam, Shaji grew up in a household rich in cultural awareness. His father worked in the revenue department while his mother nurtured his love for literature and classical arts. In 1963, the family moved to Thiruvananthapuram, where Shaji studied at Palkulangara High School and University College. In 1971, he entered the Film and Television Institute of India in Pune, graduating in 1974 with a gold medal in cinematography. His graduation film Genesis had already started to turn heads. He spent the first decade of his career behind the camera, working with filmmakers like G Aravindan and K G George. His cinematography in films such as Kummaty , Thampu , Esthappan , and Yavanika showed his excellence in handling light, rhythm and emotional depth. His visuals became the story rather than just accompanying it. Influenced by classical Indian aesthetics and European art cinema, Shaji developed a language all his own. In 1988, he made his directorial debut with Piravi , inspired by a real-life story from Indias Emergency era. Without confrontations or melodrama, the film portrayed a father's endless search for his missing son that conveyed an overwhelming sense of absence. His ability to capture silence, waiting, and grief marked him as a filmmaker of rare sensitivity. Swaham followed a womans battle with fate after the loss of her son. Vanaprastham delved deeper into themes of artistic loneliness and social invisibility, offering one of Malayalam cinema's most artistically ambitious works. His later works included Kutty Srank (2009), Swapaanam (2013), and Olu (2018), Beyond his work as an artist, Shaji shaped Keralas film culture. As the first chairman of the Kerala State Chalachitra Academy, he helped build the International Film Festival of Kerala into one of Asias most respected showcases for world cinema. Later, as chairman of the Kerala State Film Development Corporation, he championed new voices and independent filmmaking. He is survived by his wife Anasuya Warrier and sons Anil and Appu. Like he said, in his hands, cinema truly became a prayer. His films do not always provide closure. Instead, they leave viewers with spaces to linger and questions to live with.His legacy lives on through the timeless works of art he created. Filmography As Director Piravi (1988) Swaham (1994) Vanaprastham (1999) Nishad (2002, Hindi) Kutty Srank (2009) Swapaanam (2013) Olu (2018) Notable Work as Cinematographer Kanchana Sita (1977) Director: G Aravindan Thampu (1978) Director: G Aravindan Kummatty (1979) Director: G Aravindan Esthappan (1979) Director: G Aravindan Pokkuveyil (1980) Director: G Aravindan Chidambaram (1985) Director: G Aravindan Yavanika (1982) Director: K G George Major Awards and Honors National Film Award for Best Director Piravi (1988) Camra d'Or Special Mention at the Cannes Film Festival Piravi (1989) Kerala State Film Award for Best Director Swaham (1994) Kerala State Film Award for Best Director Vanaprastham (1999) Vanaprastham selected for the Un Certain Regard section at Cannes (1999) Piravi and Swaham widely screened and honored at international festivals including Cannes, London, and Locarno Padma Shri Award Government of India (2011) Chevalier of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres Government of France (2019)

Another group member, Triveni Taida, said, Our being in Pahalgam means that we are not scared nor did we face any threat.

A group of Croatian tourists was enjoying in Gulmarg. Kashmir is picturesque. This is my 6th visit to Kashmir while it is the first visit of other group members.

Andhra duo tops world junior badminton rankings
GUNTUR / KADAPA: Arigela Bhargav Ram and Gobburu Viswa Tej, both aged 17, have catapulted Indian badminton into the global spotlight by securing the No. 1 spot in the BWF Junior Boys Doubles rankings. Bhargav hales from Guntur and Viswa Tej belongs to Railway Koduru in the erstwhile YSR Kadapa district. The duo has emerged as a dominant force in international junior badminton. Bhargavs journey started in Guntur, where his father, Rama Koteswara Rao, a professional photographer, noticed his sporting potential and encouraged him to pursue badminton seriously. Initially paired with another player in the Under-13 category, Bhargav found lasting synergy in 2018 with Viswa Tej during the National Championship, where they reached the finals. Since then, the pair has remained dominant, their on-court chemistry driving their meteoric rise. Currently pursuing his Intermediate second year, Bhargav trains at the National Centre of Excellence in Guwahati under coaches Ivan Sozonov, Sanyam Shukla, and Sourabh Sharma. He has won 13 national and five international medals, including double gold in mens and mixed doubles at the India Junior International Grand Prix 2024and the Yonex Sunrise International Junior Grand Prix 2023 inPune. Bhargav has also represented India in top-tier events like the BWF World Junior Championships in China and the Asia Junior Championship in Indonesia. He now ranks No. 1 in junior boys doubles and fifth in mixed doubles globally. Viswa Tej, born on August 27, 2007, drew inspiration from his father, Gobburu Narendra, a former state-level player. He began his training under the guidance of international umpire S Jilani Basha and coaches Govardhan Reddy and Sudhakar Reddy. During 2021 - 2023, he trained at the SAI Regional Badminton Academy in Bhubaneswar before joining Bhargav in Guwahati. His tally includes 17 national and three international medals, notably silver at the 2025 Yonex Estonian International and gold at the 2024 U-19 India Junior Grand Prix. With their shared vision, relentless dedication, seamless coordination, Bhargav and Viswa Tej have set a new benchmark for Indian junior badminton.

Pune Porsche crash: Mother of accused teen walks out of jail after SC grants interim bail
PUNE: The mother of a 17-year-old boy involved in the Pune Porsche crash , in which two people lost their lives, walked out of jail on Saturday, four days after the Supreme Court granted her interim bail. She is the first among the 10 accused arrested in the alleged blood sample-swapping case to be released on bail. The others in custody include the teenager's father, Sassoon Hospital doctors Ajay Taware and Shrihari Halnor, hospital staffer Atul Ghatkamble, two middlemen, and three others. A Porsche allegedly driven by a 17-year-old boy in an inebriated state fatally knocked down two IT professionals on a two-wheeler in Pune's Kalyani Nagar in the early hours of May 19 last year. The boy's mother is accused of swapping her blood sample with that of her son to conceal his inebriation at the time of the accident. While granting the mother interim bail, the Supreme Court had directed a Pune court to set the bail conditions. Accordingly, the district and sessions court heard arguments from both sides on Friday. Special public prosecutor Shishir Hiray represented the state, while advocates Angad Gill and Dhvani Shah appeared for the woman. Advocate Hiray said, We sought conditions such as barring her from staying in Pune district, a passport seizure, mandatory police station attendance, and keeping her mobile location on at all times. Additional sessions judge Amol Shinde, however, rejected the prosecution's plea to restrict her from staying in Pune but accepted other conditions. The defence lawyers opposed the condition of her staying out of Pune, citing her husband's custody and the need for her presence in the city to assist in the legal proceedings. They also objected to the proposed Rs 5 lakh surety and daily police station visits. We argued that since the chargesheet has been filed and no recovery is pending from her, such strict conditions are unwarranted, the defence counsel said. The court accepted the arguments and imposed standard bail conditions, including a personal bond of Rs 1 lakh, submission of her passport to the investigating officer, mandatory mobile tower location sharing, and a ban on leaving India without court permission. The court has also barred the woman from disclosing her identity for three months and asked her to report to the police station every Wednesday.

BENGALURU: A 27-year-old advocate and a man were allegedly found dead inside a farmhouse at Srinivasapura in Nelamangala rural police station limits on Friday. Both were found hanging from the ceiling. The deceased Ramya, an advocate, was found in the shed of the farmhouse, while Puneeth, 25, was found inside the house. Puneeth, a carpenter, has been staying with Ramyas family since his childhood and was more like a foster son. In a voice note that she sent to one of her relatives before she took the extreme step, Ramya had named a local businessman from Basavanahalli as responsible for her death. Puneeth is suspected to have taken the extreme step after seeing Ramya hanging. The police are yet to find the relationship between the businessman and Ramya. Both came in contact during the construction of her mothers tomb. We suspect that Ramyas death was over personal issues with the businessman while Puneeth must have committed suicide unable to bear the loss of the former. Possibility of foul play behind the deaths is also being probed. Puneeth must have been aware of the issues between Ramya and the businessman, said an officer. The bodies have been sent for postmortem at the Nelamangala government hospital. The Nelamangala Rural police have registered a case and are further investigating.
