What started as a delivery of camera-ready burgers inside the Oval Office to commemorate one year of the “no tax on tips” policy has now been openly rejected by the US President. “This was clearly and obviously a planned event to mark the beginning of a new policy. Claims that Sharon is a prop, plant or an actor are completely false and baseless. He’s a Dasher and he ran to support a policy that benefits him,” he said.
New Delhi: As the defeat of the Constitution (One Hundred and Thirty-First Amendment) Bill in the Lok Sabha has triggered a political debate on women’s reservation, Congress MP Manickam Tagore on Sunday said he is ready to give up his Virudhunagar seat for a woman candidate if 33 per cent reservation is implemented in existing constituencies.Tagore also asked a question in a post on X PM Modi And Union Home Minister Amit Shah. “If 33% reservation is implemented in all 543 constituencies as promised in the 2023 Women’s Reservation Act, I am ready to leave the Virudhunagar seat for sister. But why are Modi and Shah not ready to leave Varanasi and Gandhinagar? Why is there this hesitation?”“Instead, they talk about creating new seats – clearly avoiding real social change. Women’s reservation cannot be symbolic or selective. It should be fair, immediate and should not be delayed through delimitation of existing constituencies or diversion tactics. The battle is simple: genuine representation versus political convenience,” Tagore said.The bill, which sought to implement women’s reservation with delimitation-related provisions, failed to garner the required two-thirds majority, receiving 298 votes in favor and 230 against.It proposed to increase the strength of the Lok Sabha from 543 to 816 seats with 33 percent reservation for women as per the delimitation based on the 2011 census. Following its defeat, the government decided not to proceed with two other related bills.In his address to the nation, PM Modi criticized opposition parties for blocking the bill and said they have “crushed” women’s dreams despite the government’s efforts. She described the defeat as “a blow to women’s self-respect” and said voters would remember “an insult to their pride”.The Prime Minister also said that the proposed amendment under the Nari Shakti Vandan Act aims to expand opportunities for women and strengthen their representation in governance. He further accused the Congress of historically obstructing reforms and alleged that its approach of “delay, distract, obstruct” has slowed down national progress.

प्यार से शुरू हुई कहानी का अंत दुखद हुआ
जानकारी के मुताबिक, पश्चिम बंगाल के सिलीगुड़ी की रहने वाली रेशमा और बिहार के रहने वाले शशि रंजन मिश्रा की शादी साल 2014 में हुई थी. शुरुआत में दोनों की जिंदगी खुशहाल थी, लेकिन समय के साथ परिस्थितियां बदल गईं. जुड़वां बेटियों रिद्धि और सिद्धि के जन्म के बाद शशि नशे की लत में पड़ गए और परिवार में तनाव बढ़ गया।
घर बन गया जेल, हर जगह कैमरे
रेशमा ने बताया कि शशि ने पूरे फ्लैट में करीब 6 सीसीटीवी कैमरे लगवाए थे. उसने एक गुप्त कमरा बना रखा था, जहाँ किसी को भी जाने की इजाज़त नहीं थी। वह खुद भी उसी कमरे में रहता था और अपनी बेटियों को भी वहीं रखता था। रेशमा को केवल टीवी पर कैमरे के माध्यम से सब कुछ देखने की अनुमति थी, जिसके कारण घर का माहौल जेल जैसा हो गया था।
संदेह और हिंसा रिश्ते खराब कर देते हैं
रेशमा के मुताबिक, शशि अक्सर शराब के नशे में उसके साथ मारपीट करता था और उस पर शक करता था। वह कई बार कहता था कि बेटे को मायके ले जाओ, लेकिन बेटियों को वह अपने पास ही रखता था। यहां तक कि एक बार जब रेशमा अपने मायके गई तो उसने अपनी बेटियों को साथ भेजने से इनकार कर दिया.
रात में सब कुछ ठीक था, इसका खुलासा सुबह हुआ
रेशमा ने बताया कि रात करीब डेढ़ बजे उसने सीसीटीवी में बेटी को देखा तो सब कुछ सामान्य था। लेकिन सुबह करीब साढ़े चार बजे शशि ने खुद पुलिस को फोन कर बताया कि उसने अपनी बेटियों की हत्या कर दी है. जब पुलिस मौके पर पहुंची तो उसे लड़कियों के शवों के पास बैठा पाया और उसने बिना किसी विरोध के खुद को पुलिस के हवाले कर दिया।
न्याय की मांग, मां का दर्द
अब रेशमा अपने फैसले पर पछता रही है और न्याय की गुहार लगा रही है. वह अपने छोटे बेटे को सीने से लगाए बस यही मांग कर रही है कि उसकी बेटियों के कातिल को कड़ी से कड़ी सजा मिले. पुलिस मामले की जांच कर रही है और आरोपियों से पूछताछ जारी है.
New Delhi: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin on Sunday unveiled DMK’s Chennai-centric manifesto, presenting an ambitious roadmap to reshape the city’s infrastructure, mobility and economy ahead of the assembly elections. Released at the Anna Arivalayam headquarters, the “Chennai Super-6” plan is part of the party’s broader Dravidian Model 2.0 vision, with a clear focus on urban transformation.The manifesto outlines six key pillars that aim to improve the quality of life in the capital, from improved public amenities and smart transportation to job creation and technology-led growth. The proposals were launched in the presence of district-level candidates, indicating the party’s intention to center Chennai’s development as a key campaign issue.The focus of the scheme is on upgrading housing facilities in the houses managed by the Urban Habitat Development Board. The DMK has proposed involving women-led welfare associations in implementing these reforms, supported by state funding. Basic services are also set to be strengthened, with RO drinking water facilities promised for metro water deficient areas and time-bound supply assured for connected households.A significant economic boost comes through a proposed Rs 10,000 crore investment in a global technology hub focusing on artificial intelligence, animation, visual effects and immersive technologies. The project is expected to create approximately 20,000 high-value jobs and establish Chennai as a global talent gateway.The announcement comes amid sharp political attacks from AIADMK leader Edappadi K Palaniswami, who accused the DMK of failing women and criticized its stand on the Women’s Reservation Bill, underscoring the intensifying electoral battle in the state.
All eyes will be on Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who enters the contest after a rare setback. In the previous game against SRH, Prafulla Hinge had exposed a potential weakness, dismissing the young batsman for a duck with a sharp, rising delivery that forced him to make room.
KKR are likely to target the same area. Interestingly, Vaibhav Arora, who had dismissed Suryavanshi in his meeting last year, may be given this responsibility again.
This sets up an interesting competition. Can the 15-year-old adapt to the short ball, or will KKR’s pace attack once again expose the chinks in his armour?

Tamil Nadu elections: Vijay’s TVK supports independent candidate in Edappadi’s Salem, calls for ‘appropriate lesson’
New Delhi: Ahead of the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections on April 23, actor-turned-politician Vijay has announced that his party, Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK), will support an independent candidate in the high-profile Edappadi constituency. This step has been taken after the party’s official candidate was unable to field.In a post on Twitter on Sunday, Vijay urged voters in Salem district to support his fan club’s former administrator K Premkumar, calling him “our own brother”. He said the party has “unanimously decided to support” Premkumar, who is contesting under the “television set” symbol.“Therefore, I would like to inform you that, on behalf of our Tamil Nadu Vijay League, we have unanimously decided to support our former administrator, Shri K Premkumar,” Vijay said while appealing to voters to ensure his victory by a “huge margin”, as reported by PTI.The TVK chief also struck a sharply political tone, calling on supporters to deliver a result that would serve as a “fair lesson” to those who allegedly tried to suppress the party symbol through “underhanded means”.
Premkumar’s support comes after the Election Commission rejected the nomination of TVK’s official candidate Arun Kumar on technical grounds, forcing the party to realign its strategy in the constituency. Premkumar is now being projected as the “emotional candidate” of the party.Edappadi assembly seat is considered to be the stronghold of AIADMK general secretary and former chief minister Edappadi K Palaniswami, making the contest politically significant.The development comes days after Vijay unveiled TVK’s manifesto for the elections, which outlined a host of welfare measures including monthly financial assistance for women, interest-free loans for self-help groups, employment generation initiatives and expanded health care coverage.Launched in February 2024, TVK is contesting its first assembly elections, presenting itself as a challenger to the established Dravidian parties in the state.
