New Delhi: In a major boost to India’s “second-strike capability”, the country’s third indigenously developed nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine, INS Aridhman, was commissioned into the Navy on Friday, an official source confirmed to TOI.Part of the classified Advanced Technology Vessels project, the commissioning of the nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) was not announced. However, sources confirmed that INS Aridman was launched at an event in Visakhapatnam, where Defense Minister Rajnath Singh and Navy Chief Admiral Dinesh K Tripathi were present.A cryptic post by Rajnath on X on Friday morning was seen by many as confirmation of this. The minister posted, “It’s not words, it’s power, ‘Aridaman’! (It’s not words, it’s power, ‘Aridaman’!).”INS Aridman has a displacement of 7,000 tonnes (1,000 tonnes more than its predecessors) and is powered by an 83 MW compact light water reactor. The 130 meter long submarine is designed for superior stealth and will boost India’s nuclear triad. Equipped with eight Vertical Launch System tubes (compared to 4 in earlier models), INS Aridman is capable of carrying 24 K-15 Sagarika missiles (750 km range) or eight K-4 missiles (3,500 km range).India’s first indigenous nuclear submarine, INS Arihant, was launched in July 2009 and quietly commissioned in 2016, while SSBN INS Arighat was commissioned in August 2024.In Visakhapatnam, Rajnath also commissioned the indigenously developed 6,670-tonne stealth frigate INS Taragiri, the fourth warship of the Nilgiri class (Project 17A). Built by Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders, INS Taragiri represents a generational leap over earlier designs as it has a significantly reduced radar cross-section allowing it to operate with lethal stealth.Rajnath also laid the foundation stone of a Large Cavitation Tunnel (LCT) facility at DRDO’s Naval Science and Technology Laboratory in Visakhapatnam. This facility will significantly enhance India’s naval research and testing capabilities. “It will serve as a fundamental backbone for the design and development of submarines and ships, which will support future advancements in naval engineering and maritime defense systems,” the minister said.Rajnath said that “95% of our trade is through the sea route, energy security also depends on this route. Therefore, a strong navy is not an option but a basic requirement. The commissioning of INS Taragiri reflects India’s growing indigenous power and growing ‘self-reliance’ in the region. He said, “Be it the Persian Gulf or the Strait of Malacca, the Navy remains ready to provide all types of assistance even during humanitarian crises.““There are many sensitive points in the vast expanse of sea, where our Navy has maintained a constant active presence to ensure smooth flow of goods,” Rajnath said. “Whenever tension rises, Indian Navy Steps to guarantee the safety of commercial ships and oil tankers. It is not only protecting India’s national interests, but it is also ready to take every necessary measure to protect our citizens and trade routes around the world. It is this capability that firmly establishes India as a responsible and formidable maritime power,” he said.

New Delhi: A day after AAP removed him as the party’s deputy leader in Rajya Sabha, Raghav Chadha announced that he will not be intimidated by attempts to silence him, drawing sharp reaction from his colleagues.Senior AAP members accused Chadha of being afraid of PM Narendra Modi and not raising issues related to the party’s stand. He referred to his failure to sign the notice demanding removal of CEC Gyanesh Kumar and his disregard of the party line on walkouts over issues in the House. Chadha was accused by Punjab CM Bhagwant Singh Mann, party leader in Rajya Sabha Sanjay Singh and leader of opposition in Delhi and Atishi in Parliament of indulging in “soft PR”. Asked by a journalist whether he believed Chadha had been compromised, Mann replied, “Yes”.

Mann questions Raghav’s focus: ‘Samosa on serious issues?’

Mann criticized Raghav Chadha for raising issues like the price of samosas at airports while ignoring core issues prioritized by AAP and accused him of deviating from the party line.Mann said, “If the party gives a line to raise specific issues, like valid votes were deleted (in West Bengal), 160 AAP leaders and volunteers booked in Gujarat, or Punjab issues, like attempts to polarize communities, MSP, Center stopping GST fund or rural development fund, but someone raises the issue of samosa or pizza delivery time at airports, will it not raise suspicion that he is talking from a different station?” ‘Jo Darr Gaya Samjho Mar Gaya’ jibe (Those who live in fear are as if dead), the AAP leaders taunted their estranged colleague.The controversy started when Chadha, a Rajya Sabha MP from Punjab since 2022, posted a video message on Instagram. He warned, “To those who have taken away my right to speak in Parliament, I want to say that do not consider my silence as a defeat. I am a river which can turn into a devastating flood when the time comes.”The Rajya Sabha MP asked whether it is a crime to speak about the problems of the common man in Parliament. “Today, I am asking this because AAP has told the Rajya Sabha Secretariat that Raghav Chadha should not be given time to speak in Parliament. Now, why would anyone want to stop me from speaking?” He asked and listed the various issues he raised, including expensive food at airports, problems faced by food delivery riders, taxes on the middle class.Sanjay Singh questioned Chadha’s silence on several issues – from LPG cylinders to vote manipulation in West Bengal, attack on rights in Punjab and atrocities on AAP volunteers in Gujarat. “Raghav Chadha remains silent on all these issues. I would like to tell him that we are the foot soldiers of Arvind Kejriwal, who has taught us to fight against Modi fearlessly.”Referring to Kejriwal’s arrest in March 2024, former Delhi CM Atishi said questions were raised over Chadha’s absence when the party leader was protesting on the streets and facing detention. “We had defended you then…but today, I also want to ask that when Kejriwal was arrested, were you scared of the BJP and hence ran away to London out of fear?” She got furious.

Braden Eric Peters aka Clavicular faces criticism after stream incident and recent legal troubles

As the video spread, many viewers raised concerns about safety during live content. Some felt the situation went too far, especially because it happened on a public stream. Others questioned why no one stopped it earlier. The clip does not clearly show what led to the strangulation, but the aftermath caught everyone’s attention.This is not the first time the clavicular has been in the news recently. According to reports, he already faces two arrests in 2026. The first arrest took place on February 7 near Arizona State University in Scottsdale’s Old Town area. She was reportedly detained for using a fake ID to enter a bar at an underage age. Initial reports mentioned several allegations, including forgery, but these were later dropped.Then, on March 26, he was arrested again in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This time, authorities linked him to a case of rape and criminal conspiracy. Reports claim he encouraged and livestreamed a physical fight between his girlfriend, Violet Marie Lentz, and another 19-year-old woman. A day later, on March 27, a post on X revealed that he had been released. Clavicular itself shared a brief message online, writing, “Free.”“Another video also added to the controversy. A clip from his March 26 Everglades stream showed him and someone else shooting at an alligator from an airboat. That video sparked strong reactions online with many people questioning his actions.Right now the focus remains on the stream event of April 2. While Clavicular quickly regained consciousness, the incident raised serious questions about safety, boundaries and what should and should not happen during a live broadcast.

उत्तर प्रदेश समाचार: कानपुर में सामने आए किडनी ट्रांसप्लांट रैकेट को लेकर हर दिन नए खुलासे हो रहे हैं. इस मामले में गुरुवार को पुलिस ने दो ओटी टेक्नीशियनों को गिरफ्तार कर लिया. पूछताछ में सामने आई जानकारी ने पुलिस और स्वास्थ्य विभाग के होश उड़ा दिए हैं। बताया जा रहा है कि इस पूरे रैकेट का मास्टरमाइंड नोएडा का डॉ. रोहित है, जिसने अपना नेटवर्क देश के कई शहरों और विदेश तक फैला रखा था. यह गिरोह बेहद संगठित और हाईटेक तरीके से काम करता था.

फ्लाइट से आते थे डॉक्टर, सीक्रेट मिशन की तरह होता था ऑपरेशन
पुलिस की जांच में पता चला कि इस गिरोह की कार्यशैली एक गुप्त मिशन की तरह थी. दिल्ली से यूरोलॉजिस्ट और विशेषज्ञ डॉक्टर फ्लाइट से कानपुर आते थे और ट्रांसप्लांट के बाद उसी रात लौट जाते थे। गिरफ्तार तकनीशियनों ने बताया कि उन्हें प्रत्येक ऑपरेशन के लिए 35 से 50 हजार रुपये दिये जाते थे.

विदेशी मरीजों से करोड़ों की वसूली, पहचान भी रखी गुप्त
जांच में यह भी पता चला कि डोनर और रिसीवर एक दूसरे को जानते तक नहीं थे. सबसे चौंकाने वाला मामला दक्षिण अफ्रीकी महिला ‘अरेबिका’ का है, जिसके ट्रांसप्लांट के लिए करीब 2.5 करोड़ रुपये लिए गए थे। डीसीपी कासिम आबिदी के मुताबिक, गिरोह न सिर्फ स्थानीय बल्कि विदेशी मरीजों का भी अवैध ट्रांसप्लांट करता था।

कई राज्यों में फैला था नेटवर्क, एजेंटों के जरिए चलता था खेल
गिरोह का नेटवर्क दिल्ली, नोएडा, मेरठ, हरियाणा, पश्चिम बंगाल और मुंबई तक फैला हुआ है। एजेंट हर शहर में काम करते थे। शिवम अग्रवाल उर्फ ​​शिवम कारा कानपुर और आसपास के इलाकों की जिम्मेदारी संभालता था. शहर के छह बड़े अस्पताल भी इस अवैध पैनल का हिस्सा बताये जा रहे हैं.

ड्राइवर रैकेट का हिस्सा बन गया, शिवम लालच के कारण शामिल हो गया
शिवम अग्रवाल जालौन के रहने वाले हैं और 15 साल पहले कानपुर आए थे। पहले वह एंबुलेंस चलाता था, लेकिन अमीर बनने के लालच में वह इस रैकेट में शामिल हो गया. स्थानीय लोग उन्हें ‘डॉक्टर साहब’ कहते थे.

छात्रा की शिकायत से खुला राज, अब बड़े नामों पर नजर
इस रैकेट का खुलासा बिहार के छात्र आयुष की शिकायत से हुआ. एमबीए कर रहे आयुष ने फीस के लिए अपनी किडनी बेचने का फैसला किया, लेकिन उन्हें तय रकम से काफी कम सिर्फ 6 लाख रुपये मिले। इसके बाद उन्होंने पुलिस से शिकायत की. अब पुलिस इस पूरे नेटवर्क से जुड़े अस्पतालों और डॉक्टरों की जांच कर रही है और जल्द ही बड़े नाम सामने आ सकते हैं.

‘Dhurandhar 2’ beats ‘Bahubali 2’, Rana Daggubati

Speaking to Variety India, Rana said, “It is good. It’s a decade later, but it’s still pretty cool. I think we’re all still touching the tip of the iceberg.”‘Dhurandhar 2’, with its impressive 2-week collection in the US, surpassed the lifetime collection of ‘Baahubali 2’, which was estimated at US$20.80 million. This film had made a record nine years ago.Looking at the bigger picture, Daggubati shared, “You will have Bahubali, you will have Dhurandhar, you will have all these cinemas, but the cinema that is personal will be able to resonate far.”

Rana Daggubati on local cinema

Advocating local cinema and stories, he said, “I think Korean cinema has done that to a certain extent, where they took something that is very local to their culture and told it. America did it beautifully in its early days, where we know more about American history than Indian history, just because of the cinema they made.”The actor also pointed to the growing global appeal of Indian cinema and stories. Opening up about a Malayalam film about nurses working in Bombay, she shared that although the film did reasonable business in India, it became a global phenomenon. “France’s collection alone will be four times that of India. Therefore, our local stories are resonating in different parts of the world because they have a human understanding,” he said. He said that the time has come for Indian filmmakers to find the best cinematic language and move forward.

‘Dhurandhar 2’ chases ‘Baahubali 2’ globally box office record
