Indian man in Canada says he didn’t know his friend was working for Lawrence Bishnoi.

Jashandeep Singh, an Indian man linked to extortion and shooting incidents in Canada, made some shocking revelations after his friend Arshdeep Singh was deported back to India for his direct role in criminal activities in Ontario, Alberta and BC. Jashandeep stated at his immigration hearing that he was not gang affiliated, that he did not even know his college friend was Arshdeep and that his only mistake was that he never asked his friend why he had a gun – because Jashandeep believed it was a toy gun and even posed for photos with it.“It was my bad. Why didn’t I ask him at that time?” Singh testified through a Punjabi interpreter. “At that time, I didn’t know that if I grabbed a gun, they would link me to extortion.”The Canadian administration also wants to deport Jashandeep but he presented his side saying that he came to Canada as a student in 2022 and is now waiting for his postgraduate work permit.Jashandeep Singh is currently living with his sister and brother-in-law while he awaits a decision on whether he can stay in Canada. He said he felt ashamed and could not look his family members in the eyes.He said, “My mother and father borrowed money and sent me here, so that I could make a good future for myself. They had a lot of hopes and dreams for me.”While Jashandeep pleaded innocent, he himself admitted that he had gone to the spot in Arshdeep’s car where Arshdeep fired the gun in the air several times. Jashandeep said that Arshdeep called him the previous night and asked him if he could stay the night at Jashandeep’s house in Edmonton, as it was his birthday the next day.Jashandeep said he shared the house with seven-eight other men. Jashandeep Singh testified, “Arshdeep had a bag. He took out the gun from that bag and showed it to us. I don’t know whether it was a licensed gun or an unregistered one.” “When I picked it up, I was just holding it when another friend of mine who was staying in the house with me started joking with her. I jokingly put it on her head while we were watching movies.”

Lawrence Bishnoi Group is directly threatening Canada Police

At the deportation hearing, investigator Kevin St. Louis said he had received a letter last year directly from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang in which Bishnoi said he had 1,000 foot soldiers in Canada who were willing to open fire. The letter also states how every business has to pay ‘tax’ to the Bishnoi gang.

New Delhi: Women may be living longer than men, but they are also spending more years battling pain, depression, anxiety and other disabling conditions, according to a major global study published in The Lancet Public Health.The analysis, based on data from 204 countries and territories, found that women bear a disproportionately high burden of many chronic and non-fatal conditions that affect quality of life, while men are more likely to die prematurely from fatal diseases and injuries.Researchers have identified lower back pain as the number one condition affecting women worldwide. Women were also more likely to experience depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, headache disorders, musculoskeletal conditions and dementia.

The findings challenge the common belief that longer life automatically translates into better health. Dr Rommel Tikku, Director of Internal Medicine, Max Hospital, Saket, said that longevity alone is not an indicator of good health. “Women are living longer, but many women spend a large portion of their lives dealing with chronic pain, mental health disorders and non-fatal diseases,” she said.The study found that health differences between women and men begin early in life and increase with age. Mental health disorders and musculoskeletal conditions emerge as major factors of poor health in girls and women during adolescence and continue into adulthood.Tikku said the causes are likely multi-factorial, including biological and hormonal influences, greater susceptibility to autoimmune and musculoskeletal disorders, and social and caregiving responsibilities that can impact physical and mental well-being.The researchers said the findings highlight a major gap in health care systems that largely focus on reproductive and maternal health while often ignoring chronic conditions that make up a large portion of women’s overall disease burden.In contrast, men faced a greater burden from conditions such as COVID-19, ischemic heart disease, road injuries and chronic respiratory diseases, which put them at greater risk of premature death.

Freya Kemp produced brilliant performances with both bat and ball as England defeated India by 26 runs in the second Women’s T20 match in Bristol on Saturday to level the three-match series 1-1.Kemp first scored an unbeaten 39 off just 13 balls to give England a late lead and then took 2/15, dismissing Smriti Mandhana and Jemimah Rodrigues, as India finished at 142/9 chasing 169.Now the series will be decided by the third and last T20 match to be held in Taunton on Tuesday.Earlier, India looked to be in control for most of England’s innings after restricting the hosts in the middle overs. Left-arm spinner Sri Charani continued his impressive start in international cricket, taking 3 wickets for 25 runs.However, Kemp changed the direction of the innings in the death overs. England scored 39 runs in the last two overs, including 24 runs in the last over bowled by Arundhati Reddy. Kemp hit two sixes and two fours during his innings, taking England to 168/5.India got off to a positive start through openers Shafali Verma and Mandhana. Shafali scored 22 runs in 14 balls while Mandhana scored 32 runs in 25 balls as the visitors kept pace with the target.Even after losing the openers, India stood comfortably at 78/2 after 10 overs.The match turned in the middle overs when England spinners Charlie Dean and Sophie Ecclestone slowed down the scoring. Boundaries became difficult to find and the required run rate increased.Yastika Bhatia, who was dismissed by Dean on 29, struggled to increase the scoring rate and was eventually retired after scoring 33 runs from 36 balls as India looked to score quickly.Dean applied pressure with several economical overs while Ecclestone also kept the Indian batsmen under control at the other end.Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur tried to maintain the chase by scoring 28 runs in 22 balls. During her innings, she became the third batsman to score 4,000 runs in Women’s T20I, joining Suzie Bates and Smriti Mandhana.But England continued to attack at crucial moments.Kemp removed Jemima soon after coming to the crease, while Dean dealt a big blow by dismissing Richa Ghosh (8) and Harmanpreet within four balls.Harmanpreet left Dean behind while trying to attack from the outside and her dismissal left India with a lot to do.With the required rate rising rapidly and wickets falling regularly, India were unable to recover as England sealed victory and kept the series alive.

A NYT report claims that JD Vance is not active on social media on the advice of Susie Wills.

vice president JD Vance He has not been seen fighting his critics on X recently. The real reason, as reported by The New York Times, is that White House Chief of Staff Susie Wills advised him not to get involved in petty social media feuds because they are beneath his dignity. But now White House spokesperson Steve Cheung said that this never happened and it is completely fake news. Cheung said, “This is not true. We denied this to The New York Times and they refused to run our quote. This is completely fake news. This alleged “conversation” never happened.”The NYT reported that Vance often scrolled through his phone during meetings. President Trump also posts a lot on Truth Social but he doesn’t respond to people online but Vance used to do that. “Mr. Trump’s chief of staff, Susie Wills, recently advised Mr. Vance to take a break from social media, as did other West Wing officials, according to people familiar with those conversations, as the fight raged beneath her office,” the report said.JD Vance recently said he had taken a break from X for Lent (penitential preparation for Easter, which involves fasting, abstinence and almsgiving in imitation of Jesus Christ’s fast in the wilderness), which began on February 18 and ended on April 2. But he said he still hasn’t reinstalled X on his mobile.“It’s one of those things where not having the distractions, I think, has made me a lot more productive,” Vance said recently. “You’re not scrolling all the time when you’ve got five minutes. I can actually read something as opposed to, you know, scrolling or getting distracted by X.”However, Vance said he was hoping to reinstate X because social media provides raw opinions. “I live in such a crazy bubble,” he explained. “I travel with the Secret Service all the time. If you think about how many unplanned conversations I have in a given week, it’s close to zero, because I live in such a bubble.”He said, “I think one of the cool things about social media is that it really exposes you to unfiltered raw opinion, and that’s one of the things I need to hear as a political leader.” “So I’ll definitely be revisiting it, but I’ve enjoyed my little break from it.”

Pune: Farmers may soon be able to book fertilizers through their mobile phones, as the Union Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare has developed a new app aimed at making fertilizer distribution more transparent and reducing black marketing.The mobile app – Fertilizer Sales Application System – is currently being tested MaharashtraBihar, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat and Telangana.In Maharashtra, the pilot project has been going on since last week in Ashtapur village in Haveli taluka of Pune district.Currently, farmers purchase fertilizers through local retailers and distributors. Many complain about long waiting times during the monsoon season, lack of stock and black marketing of subsidized fertilizers.Officials believe the new digital system can help address these problems.Under the new system, farmers will be able to check fertilizer shops within a radius of 20 kilometers through the app and see which fertilizer is in stock.Farmers can book required fertilizers online without visiting the shop. Once the booking is confirmed, the fertilizer stock will be reserved in the name of the farmer. The farmer can get it from the selected shop within three days by making payment online or directly at the shop.Officials associated with the project said that Aadhaar verification will be mandatory for registration on the app. After booking, farmers will receive a QR code on their mobile phones. This code will be scanned at the fertilizer shop before delivery of the stock.“During the trials conducted over the past few days, 124 farmers of the village purchased 206 bags of fertilizers using the app. The trial was successful and it will soon be implemented in other areas of the state,” agriculture director (quality control and inputs) Sunil Borkar told TOI.Meanwhile, a section of farmers said that implementing the online process could be difficult and complicated for many users. He said that people familiar with the technology will be able to use it easily, but small and marginal farmers will not be able to get its full benefit. He said officials need to understand the ground reality well before introducing such systems.“It is important to have a strong system. The authorities concerned need to keep a close eye on retailers who hoard to sell fertilizers at high prices when there is shortage in the market. Regular stock checking is necessary to prevent hoarding,” said Shantaram Sarvade, a farmer activist from Khed tehsil.Agriculture department officials said the app will help bring transparency in fertilizer sales and reduce illegal hoarding and diversion of subsidized stocks.“Farmers will know where fertilizer is available and how much stock is left. This could reduce unnecessary rush and panic buying,” said an official.Officials said this system can be implemented on an experimental basis in two districts from May 29, although the names of the districts have not been decided yet.Another official said, “The app is also expected to help officials monitor fertilizer sales digitally. Officials will be able to track stock movement and identify irregularities more easily as all bookings and transactions will be recorded online. It is also linked to the existing integrated fertilizer management system.”Farmers and local agricultural workers in the pilot area have welcomed the initiative. Many believe that this can reduce the harassment faced by farmers during the peak farming season.Santosh Kotwal, a farmer who participated in the trial, told TOI, “I can book fertilizer at the nearest retailer’s shop. It is easy for booking if you know how to use a smartphone. However, in many villages, network connectivity is a major concern. In that scenario, the authorities should ensure support for small and marginal farmers.Santosh Dhamane, another farmer who participated in the trial, said, “In many villages, farmers stand in queues for hours only to find out whether the stock is gone. If the app shows availability in real time, it will save both time and money.”
