AAP’s Major Protest Across Punjab Against India-US Deal; Accuses Centre of Compromising National Interests

Punjab News

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), terming India-USA deal as “fatal” for Indian farmers and traders, held strong protests on Thursday in various districts of Punjab. Party workers fully supported the ‘Bharat Bandh’ against the policies of the Central Government and came out on the roads to register their protest.

During the protest, AAP leaders and workers held placards with slogans written against the deal and raised slogans against the Central Government. AAP accused the Central Government of compromising the nation’s interests under pressure from the United States and demanded that this deal be immediately cancelled.

Addressing the gathering, Farmers’ Wing President Mohinder Singh Sidhu said that this agreement will break the backbone of India’s agricultural system. Under this deal, the United States has been allowed to sell dairy and other agricultural products in Indian markets without any tax. This will make American products available in Indian markets at very cheap prices, and the business of our local farmers and dairy operators will come to a complete standstill.

AAP leader and Trade Wing General Secretary Ranjit Pal Singh said that this decision of the Central Government is an attack on our ‘annadata’ (food providers). On one hand, there will be no tax on American products, while on the other hand, Indian traders will have to pay up to 18% tax in the United States. This is not an equal deal.

General Secretary Satvir Singh Bakshi Wala said that this agreement is a step towards economic slavery. The Central Government has handed over the country’s economy to foreign companies. This will cause economic losses not only to farmers but to every citizen of the country. “We will go among the people and expose the Centre’s anti-people policy,” he said.

Bhagwant Mann meets citizens during ‘Lok Milni’ programme in Jalandhar

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Wednesday met citizens at his Jalandhar residence under the government’s ‘Lok Milni’ public interaction initiative, where he listened to grievances and directed officials to resolve issues on the spot.

Direct interaction with citizens


During the programme, Mann heard complaints and requests from attendees and instructed concerned departmental officers to address them immediately. According to the Chief Minister, such outreach programmes are intended to ensure that administrative solutions reach people without delay.

Bhagwant Mann: Government’s commitment


Mann said the government is committed to ensuring that citizens do not face unnecessary difficulties and that it is fulfilling its duty toward the public with full responsibility. He emphasized that resolving people’s problems remains a priority for the administration.

Future plans


The Chief Minister stated that similar ‘Lok Milni’ programmes will continue in the future, indicating that the government plans to maintain direct engagement platforms for grievance redressal and public feedback.

Administrative significance


Officials say such initiatives help reduce bureaucratic delays, improve accountability, and strengthen trust between citizens and the government by enabling real-time problem resolution.

Officials present at the event noted that grievances raised by citizens ranged from civic infrastructure concerns and utility issues to individual administrative matters such as documentation delays and local service requests. Departments were instructed to prepare follow-up reports to ensure that the directions issued during the session are implemented within stipulated timelines.

Public response
Attendees reportedly welcomed the initiative, saying direct access to the Chief Minister and senior officials gave them confidence that their concerns were being heard at the highest level. Several citizens expressed satisfaction after receiving on-the-spot assurances or immediate administrative intervention.

New Income Tax Rules May Revive Interest In Old Regime For High-Income Salaried Taxpayers

Income- Tax- News
Google

The recently notified Income Tax Rules, 2026, may shift taxpayer preference back toward the old tax regime, particularly among high-income salaried individuals, according to tax experts and early assessments of the changes. The rules introduce three significant revisions that could alter the cost-benefit calculation between the two systems.

What has changed


The government has proposed adjustments that affect deductions, compliance provisions, and reporting requirements. While the new tax regime still offers lower slab rates with minimal exemptions, the updated rules appear to strengthen certain benefits linked to deductions and allowances available only under the old regime.

Why high earners may reconsider


Tax professionals say individuals in higher salary brackets often rely on deductions such as house rent allowance, home-loan interest, insurance premiums, and investment-linked exemptions. With refinements in how some of these benefits can be claimed or documented, the relative advantage of the new regime could narrow for this group.

Compliance and documentation impact


One of the changes focuses on revised reporting norms, which may streamline claim processes for specific exemptions. Analysts suggest that if compliance becomes simpler while deductions remain substantial, taxpayers with structured salary packages may find the old regime more financially efficient.


The Centre has repeatedly signalled its long-term intent to make the new tax regime the default system. However, the latest rule adjustments indicate a balancing approach, ensuring that taxpayers who depend on deductions are not disadvantaged during the transition phase.


Chartered accountants and financial planners advise salaried taxpayers not to assume the new regime is automatically better. Instead, they recommend annual tax comparisons based on salary structure, investments, and deductions before choosing a regime.

What taxpayers should do


Financial advisers suggest that individuals, especially those with high annual income and multiple exemptions, should run detailed calculations for the assessment year 2026–27 before filing returns. The decision should be based on actual tax liability rather than slab rates alone.

Outlook ahead


If the revised provisions translate into tangible tax savings for deduction-heavy earners, the coming filing season could see a measurable increase in taxpayers opting for the old regime again, reversing the recent trend toward the simplified system.

BJP’s US-India deal is conspiracy to destroy Punjab’s farmers & sell India’s agriculture to America: Harpal Singh Cheema

Harpal Singh Cheema

Senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Punjab Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema on Thursday addressed a press conference at the party office and strongly criticised the BJP-led Central Government, saying it has hatched a big scheme and conspiracy to destroy Punjab’s farmers and sell India’s agriculture to the USA through a so-called US-India deal.

Punjab Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema said, “The BJP-led Central Government has prepared a big scheme and conspiracy to destroy Punjab’s farmers and sell India’s agriculture to the USA through this so-called US-India deal.”

The Finance Minister warned that if cheap American milk powder, cheese, grains and other agricultural products begin entering India at low prices, it will directly crush Punjab’s farmers and farmers across the country. Raising a serious question, he said, “Where will Punjab’s farmers go? Where will the country’s farmers go?”

Minister Harpal Singh Cheema stated that Punjab’s farmer has been feeding the nation for decades and that Punjab has contributed massively to India’s National Food Buffer through wheat and paddy for nearly 50 years, continuing to do so even today. “It is shameful that the same annadata who brought a large-scale food revolution in the country is now being targeted through a deep political and economic conspiracy,” he added.

Minister Harpal Singh Cheema said that the BJP, which claims to be a nationalist party and talks about Swadeshi India, has today been completely sold to the USA. He said the BJP’s Central Government has surrendered before America and is now attempting to make India dependent once again.

Referring to a tweet by the US Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, Minister Harpal Singh Cheema said the truth is now openly visible to the entire world. “The US Agriculture Secretary publicly thanked President Trump and openly celebrated the deal, stating that it would export more American farm products into India’s massive market, lift American prices, pump cash into rural America and strengthen the US economy. This is clear evidence that the deal is not being done for Indian farmers, but for American farmers,” he asserted.

Minister Harpal Singh Cheema questioned why BJP leaders in Punjab are misleading the public by claiming that Punjab will benefit from this deal. Taking direct aim at Punjab BJP President Sunil Jakhar, he said that Sunil Jakhar is holding press conferences and claiming Punjab will gain, but the BJP has no courage to respond to the US Agriculture Secretary’s tweet. Minister Harpal Singh Cheema asked, “Do you have the courage to quote-tweet this statement and respond to America?”

Minister Harpal Singh Cheema demanded that Sunil Jakhar, BJP working president Ashwini Sharma and BJP MP Ravneet Bittu immediately make the documents of this deal public before the people of Punjab, the farmers of India and the common citizens of the country. He said, “Show the documents. Make them public. These are the documents through which you are trying to destroy the country.”

Highlighting the tariff and tax issues, Minister Harpal Singh Cheema said that earlier, when Indian products used to go to the USA, a tariff of around 50 percent was imposed, but now it has been reduced to 18 percent. “On the other hand, the tariff on products India will import has been reduced to zero. This clearly shows that the BJP, which works for big corporate houses and is run by big corporate families, is now trying to sell India’s farmers to capitalists, and is doing it through the USA,” he added.

Minister Harpal Singh Cheema said the BJP is the enemy of farmers and the enemy of common citizens, and that the party is ruling the country with the support of a handful of families and corporate houses, while attempting to sell the nation.

The Punjab Minister further said that the BJP does not understand the value of India’s freedom because it did not exist during the freedom struggle. “Not only the current leaders, but even their older leadership had no role in the struggle to free the country. The people from Punjab and many other states, including Bengalis and citizens across different regions, crushed British rule and drove the British out to secure India’s independence,” he added.

Minister Harpal Singh Cheema said today the BJP is trying to hand the country over to the USA. Issuing a direct political challenge, he said that any BJP leader, whether from the Punjab unit or the national unit, can come forward for a debate on this issue. “The AAP will expose exactly how the BJP has sold Punjab’s and India’s farmers,” he added.

Minister Harpal Singh Cheema also issued a strong warning to the BJP, saying that the people of Punjab will not tolerate any attack on the dignity and future of the country’s annadata, and that the truth will be taken to every village and every household.

CM Bhagwant Singh Mann reaches Jalandhar for second time in a month, holds Lok Milni

Punjab News

Reinforcing his government’s emphasis on direct public engagement, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Thursday reached Jalandhar for the second time in a month and held a Lok Milni at his residence in the city, where thousands of people gathered to meet him. The Chief Minister listened to the grievances of residents from Jalandhar and adjoining areas and, by issuing clear directions to officials on the spot, ensured immediate redressal of their concerns.

Describing the initiative as the most effective mechanism to address people’s complaints at a single platform, the Chief Minister asserted Punjab is the only state where the head of the state personally conducts such a comprehensive exercise to safeguard public welfare. Emphasising that the AAP government is committed to resolving every problem of the people with complete honesty and accountability, he asserted that the Lok Milni programme will continue in the future as a structured bridge between the government and the masses, further strengthening responsive and transparent governance.

During this, CM Bhagwant Singh Mann stated, “Lok Milnis are the best way to redress the people’s grievances at a single platform and to take feedback of the masses for further enhancing good governance. There is hardly any match of the citizen centric Lok Milni across the country. There is no other state which indulges in such a pro-people initiative for the welfare of the general public. It is on record that the Lok Milni program has been very fruitful in redressing the grievances of every strata of society. Lok Milnis are indeed a unique phenomenon where the entire government meets the people for solving their problems in a planned manner.”

Describing the initiative as a matter of pride for Punjab, the Chief Minister said, “It is a matter of immense pride and satisfaction that Punjab is the only state where the head of the state conducts a comprehensive exercise for ensuring the welfare of the public. Lok Milni guarantees holistic development of the state and welfare of people on one hand and enables the government to judge the performance of its officers on the other. This is the first of its kind program in the entire country as no other Chief Minister of any state bothers to take so much pain for the people.”

Emphasising that the initiative rises above partisan considerations, CM Bhagwant Singh Mann said, “Lok Milnis are not associated with politics. The sole aim of the state government is to usher in development and prosperity. Lok Milni is the best way to redress the people’s grievances at a single platform besides ensuring unbridled development in a democratic set up, thereby bridging the communication gap between government and the masses. The state government is working tirelessly for the well being of the people for which several key initiatives have already been taken in the state.”

Highlighting the government’s focus on youth empowerment, he said, “The work of any government is to provide wings to the children so that they can script a new success story in life. Every file signed by me is aimed at the benefit of the common man and the state. More than 63,000 jobs have been provided to youth without corruption or recommendation. Every decision of the state government is aimed at the progress of the state and prosperity of its people.”

On education reforms, the Chief Minister stated, “In the Education sector, Schools of Eminence have been set up across the state to impart quality education to the students. These schools have been equipped with smart classrooms, fully equipped labs and playgrounds for scientific learning. To upscale the expertise of the teachers, a special program has been embarked under which teachers and Principals are being sent abroad for training to make sure that they are well versed with modern teaching practices to prepare the students for future competitions in the international arena. It is a matter of immense pride and satisfaction that Punjab has ranked first in the National Achievement Survey conducted by the Government of India, surpassing even Kerala.”

CM Bhagwant Singh Mann further said, “Students are being offered specialized coaching for competitive examinations such as Armed Forces Preparation, NEET, JEE, CLAT, and NIFT. It is a matter of immense pride and satisfaction that students from Schools of Eminence and other government schools have qualified for JEE Mains, JEE Advanced, and NEET exams. In another significant step, the Mukh Mantri Sehat Yojna has been launched for cashless treatment upto Rs 10 lakh for all 65 lakh families in the state.”

Detailing healthcare initiatives, CM Bhagwant Singh Mann said, “Income conditions have been removed under this scheme and now even government employees and pensioners have been included under it. Punjab has become the first state to provide free healthcare to all citizens. 881 Aam Aadmi Clinics are providing free treatment daily. Since the state government has assumed charge in 2022, around 90% households of the state are receiving free electricity.”

Referring to support for farmers and infrastructure, he said, “For the first time in the history of the state more than eight hours of uninterrupted power has been supplied to farm tube wells during paddy season, that too in the daytime. 6900 km long, 18349 water courses have been revived in the state to provide water at tail ends. Several public libraries have been opened in the state to ensure that the students can study and excel in life.”

The Chief Minister added, “Today Punjab is making rapid strides in every field as the state government has taken every step for comprehensive development of Punjab. The state government has taken path breaking initiatives in health, education, power and other sectors. The work on construction of more than 49,000 km of rural roads is going on in full swing and will be accomplished soon.”

Citing relief measures for the public, he said, “The state government has closed 19 toll plazas in Punjab which is saving ₹64 lakh daily from common man’s pocket in toll fees. To provide accessible healthcare, 881 Aam Aadmi Clinics have been opened across the state offering free treatment and medicines. The state government has hitherto fulfilled every promise made to the people of state.”

Concluding, CM Bhagwant Singh Mann said, “Now the state government will start the scheme to give ₹1000 to every woman for which necessary provision will be kept in the coming budget. Every promise made to the people of the state will be fulfilled by all means as this government is committed for the welfare of all. The sole agenda of the state government is to ensure the progress of the state and the prosperity of its people.”

CM Bhagwant Singh Mann’s message: Continue strict enforcement to uphold rule of law in Punjab

CM Bhagwant Mann

Reasserting an uncompromising stand against drugs and organised crime, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Thursday directed the entire senior police leadership to escalate enforcement and ensure that the rule of law prevails without exception across the state.

Chairing a high-level review meeting with Commissioners of Police, Inspector Generals (IG), Deputy Inspector Generals (DIG) and Senior Superintendents of Police (SSPs) who joined the meeting virtually, the Chief Minister underscored that ‘Yudh Nashean Virudh’ and ‘Gangsteraan Te Vaar’ remain the Punjab Government’s foremost priorities and must culminate in the complete eradication of the drug menace and gangster networks from their very roots.

Calling for sharper coordination, stricter accountability and visible outcomes on the ground, the Chief Minister reiterated that the AAP Government is firmly committed to safeguarding the safety and security of ordinary citizens. He emphasised that while enforcement would remain relentless, long-term protection of Punjab’s youth also hinges on expanding employment opportunities, strengthening education and institutionalising career counselling so that young people are shielded from falling prey to drugs and crime.

Addressing the officers, CM Bhagwant Singh Mann said, “Punjab Police has a glorious legacy of combating such challenges and the need of the hour is to uphold this heritage by eliminating the drug menace and gangsters from the state, for which you all have to play a major role.”

Highlighting the progress achieved so far, the Chief Minister stated that with fulsome support and cooperation of the people, the two flagship drives of the state government, ‘Yudh Nashean Virudh’ and ‘Gangsteraan te Vaar’, have been successfully launched. He stated, “The results of both these drives aimed at making the state free from the curse of drugs and gangsters have been encouraging.”

He added, “Now the need of the hour is to give a final blow to both these maladies, for which every officer needs to play a proactive role.”

Emphasising strict monitoring, CM Bhagwant Singh Mann said, “I will be personally monitoring the progress of these campaigns on a daily basis to ensure that the state is free from drug menace and gangsters.” He further said, “The work of every officer and official is under scrutiny and they will be duly rewarded for their good work and will be held accountable for any sort of lapse.” While patting the Punjab Police for remarkable work under both these campaigns, he added, “A lot more needs to be done, for which every one of you should work hard.”

Assuring whole-hearted support from the state government, the Chief Minister said, “There is no dearth of funds to equip the Punjab Police with the latest technology.” He also noted that the human resource, vehicle fleet and other infrastructure are being upgraded as per the needs of the department. Bhagwant Singh Mann said, “The motive is very clear to ensure that Punjab Police is readily equipped to face any sort of challenge.”

Speaking on the law and order situation, the Chief Minister said, “With the concerted efforts of the state government, the law and order situation in Punjab is much better than the rest of the country.”

He added, “As compared to earlier regimes, there is a paradigm shift in the state as the Police force is no longer being used to register false cases.” Bhagwant Singh Mann further said, “It is a matter of immense pride and satisfaction that no patronization of the criminals is being done by the state government.”

The Chief Minister also asked the Civil and Police administration to start a massive drive to review arm licenses across the state to avert misuse. He said, “If any arm license is used for some crime, then the district authorities must immediately cancel that license.”

CM Bhagwant Singh Mann categorically added, “Any sort of laxity in this cause is totally unwarranted and undesirable. This drive should be planned meticulously and executed flawlessly.”

Stressing the need to keep youth engaged in constructive activities, the Chief Minister said, “As an idle mind is the devil’s workshop, the state government is trying to provide maximum employment to the youth so they remain away from social evils.”

Batting for checking the school dropout rate, especially in drug hotspot areas and among vulnerable groups, he said, “The Education department should be roped in to take remedial measures and check it.” CM Bhagwant Singh Mann also said, “A massive career counselling programme should be started in these vulnerable areas and hotspots.”

On the occasion, Chief Secretary KAP Sinha, DGP Gaurav Yadav and other senior officers were also present.

AAP MLA Narinder Kaur Bharaj’s Explosive Revelation: BJP tried to lure me with ticket, closed-door meeting & fulfilment of any demand under ‘Operation Lotus’

Punjab News

Aam Aadmi Party MLA from Sangrur Narinder Kaur Bharaj addressed a press conference at the party office along with AAP Punjab State Media Incharge Baltej Pannu and spoke about an alleged attempt by the BJP under its so-called ‘Operation Lotus’ to approach her with inducements.

AAP MLA Narinder Kaur Bharaj said, “The BJP is running ‘Operation Lotus’ across the country to topple elected governments. A few days ago, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini tried to contact me. He tempted me with a BJP ticket from Sangrur and said that whatever demand I had would be fulfilled. He also offered a closed-door meeting.”

The AAP MLA further said, “I joined the party in 2014 at the age of 19, inspired by the policies of Arvind Kejriwal and Bhagwant Singh Mann. I am that worker who has put up posters for the party. Only the Aam Aadmi Party can give a small farmer’s daughter the honour of becoming an MLA at the age of 27.”

Taking on the Haryana Chief Minister, Narinder Kaur Bharaj said, “The way Saini Sahib has been roaming the streets of Punjab these days, it seems the BJP has sent him to Punjab on deputation. My advice to him is to stop worrying about me or Punjab and take care of Haryana. The people of Punjab and AAP MLAs stand like a rock with Bhagwant Singh Mann Sahib and Arvind Kejriwal ji.”

She made it clear that the party remains united. “Every worker, MLA and minister of the Aam Aadmi Party is united. We have entered politics to change the system and to provide health and education facilities, not to indulge in horse-trading. We are fully prepared for the 2027 elections, and such cheap tactics of the BJP cannot shake us.”

Meanwhile, AAP Punjab State Media Incharge Baltej Pannu also addressed the media and stated, “The BJP is once again unsuccessfully trying to crush democracy in Punjab through ‘Operation Lotus’. This is not the first time the BJP has tried to buy AAP MLAs, but they forget that Punjabis are known for their honour.”

He added, “Saini Sahib should keep his ‘Haryana Model’ where people are suffering under expensive electricity. Punjab follows the model of Arvind Kejriwal and Bhagwant Singh Mann, where facilities like free electricity and SSF exist, which are nowhere to be seen in your failed Haryana Model.”

Baltej Pannu further said, “Four years of the Punjab government are about to be completed, yet BJP’s glamour and offers worth crores of rupees could not sway even a single MLA. AAP MLAs are sons and daughters of ordinary households, whom traditional parties used to mock by calling them ‘material’ or ‘band-baaja walas’. We warn the BJP to put this ‘For Sale’ sign in some other state, because neither any MLA nor any worker in Punjab is for sale.”

Baltej Pannu concluded by saying, “The post of Chief Minister carries a certain dignity, which must be understood and upheld. Instead of hatching conspiracies to break other parties, Saini Sahib should learn from the AAP model how to serve people honestly. Let it be clear that no matter how much the BJP increases its activities in Punjab, it should remove this illusion that any MLA will be intimidated or broken. What could not happen in Delhi will never happen on the soil of Punjab.”

Kanpur Lamborghini Accident: Justice Served Or….’ Shivam Mishra Gets ‘Tabadtod’ Bail

Kanpur Lamborghini Accident
google

Kanpur Lamborghini Accident: On February 12, 26-year-old Shivam Mishra was taken into custody in relation to the well-publicised Lamborghini crash in Kanpur. After he allegedly evaded interrogation for a few days, police followed him. Authorities used CCTV evidence and eyewitness reports that purportedly put him in the driver’s seat during the February 8 accident on VIP Road, and several teams were sent out to find him.

According to conflicting reports, he was taken from a hospital while claiming to have received medical care. Around ten in the morning, he was brought before the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate (ACJM) court.

Court Denies Police Presence

Kanpur Lamborghini Accident: Police requested a 14-day custody remand, stating that more questioning was necessary. But the request was denied by the court. The defence contended throughout the trial that the prosecution lacked hard proof. It is noteworthy that Mishra allegedly made up reasons for himself.

Within hours of his detention, Additional Civil Judge Amit Singh granted him bail on a Rs 20,000 personal bond. The decision was made concurrently with the dismissal of a previous effort at surrender by a different person posing as the driver.

Investigation Proceeds Despite Public Discussion

Three to six persons were reportedly hurt in the February 8 collision when the expensive car struck other cars on VIP Road. Victim statements and a forensic analysis of the car are still pending.

Mishra is still free on bail as of the evening of February 12. Public discussion about due process and whether powerful backgrounds influence court decisions has been spurred by the prompt relief. According to authorities, the investigation is still underway and that witness testimony and forensic results will determine the next course of action.

Tata Nexon Beyond 5 Stars, 2026 Redefines Safety with Level 2 ADAS and Next-Gen Structural Upgrades, Check

Tata Nexon
google

The 2026 Tata Nexon is still known as one of India’s safest small SUVs. The revised model now comes with Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in its top variants. It already has two 5-star safety ratings from Global NCAP and Bharat NCAP. With this decision, Tata Motors shows that it is serious about merging cutting-edge technologies with great build quality.

Features that help drivers in advanced ways

The Level 2 ADAS suite is the best thing about the 2026 Nexon. It has a lot of safety features, such as Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Keep Assist (LKA), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Lane Centering System (LCS), High Beam Assist (HBA), and Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR).

These systems use cameras and radar to keep an eye on the area around the car all the time. They warn the driver of possible dangers and can step in to stop or lessen the severity of crashes. This makes driving on the highway and in the city safer and less stressful.

Better protection with a stronger structure

Tata has also improved the Nexon’s structural safety. The SUV has a stronger body cage, ventilated front disc brakes, six airbags, Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), and hill-hold control. A 360-degree camera with a washer makes it even easier to see when making tight turns.

These improvements make the Nexon safer and more stable, going beyond its original 5-star rating. Tata keeps telling family buyers that its “bulletproof” structure is strong.

Prices and Options

The Fearless+ PS DCT petrol model with ADAS begins at Rs 13.53 lakh (ex-showroom). There are options for petrol, diesel, and CNG, as well as the new Red Dark Edition, which gives the car a sportier appeal.

Stroke Warning: AIIMS Doctor Reveals Why Taking Aspirin During Numbness Could Be Dangerous

AIIMS Doctor Stroke Warning: A sudden sensation of numbness in the hand or face may seem harmless at first. Many people brush it off as tiredness, stress or a minor nerve problem. However, medical experts caution that these signs can sometimes point to a serious underlying condition.

A recent video shared by an AIIMS doctor has brought fresh attention to stroke awareness. The message highlights the dangers of ignoring early symptoms and warns against self-medication without proper medical evaluation.

AIIMS Doctor Stroke Warning: Why Aspirin Is Not Always Safe

In an Instagram video, AIIMS doctor Priyanka Sehrawat explained why taking aspirin during certain neurological symptoms can be dangerous. She noted that aspirin acts as a blood thinner and is often used to manage conditions linked to blood clots. However, she pointed out that not every stroke is caused by clotting.

Dr Sehrawat described symptoms such as sudden paralysis, numbness, tingling, and difficulty closing the fist as possible warning signs of a stroke. She emphasised that these symptoms should never be ignored or self-treated.

She also clarified that strokes occur in two main types. One type is caused by a blocked blood vessel, known as an ischaemic stroke. The other type happens when a blood vessel ruptures, which is called a haemorrhagic stroke. This difference is crucial because the treatments for these two conditions are very different.

The doctor warned that taking a blood thinner like aspirin when there is even a small internal bleed can worsen the haemorrhage. This can significantly aggravate the patient’s condition and lead to more severe complications.

Recognising Stroke Symptoms And Acting Fast

The doctor emphasised that stroke-like symptoms require immediate medical attention. She warned that delaying evaluation can result in serious complications and long-term damage.

She explained that taking a blood thinner when there is even a minor internal bleed can make the haemorrhage worse. This may lead to a major stroke, severe paralysis, seizures or even loss of consciousness. As a result, the patient’s condition can rapidly deteriorate.

Dr Sehrawat also urged people not to wait at home if they notice signs of paralysis or sudden neurological changes. She stressed that acting quickly and seeking medical care without delay significantly improves the chances of recovery.

The 2026 Hyundai Venue facelift arrives with a more muscular and contemporary look, reinforcing its status as a stylish urban compact SUV. Designed for city life with occasional adventure in mind, the updated Venue combines bold aesthetics, modern technology, and improved safety while maintaining its practical footprint under four metres.

Striking Exterior Redesign

The facelifted Venue features a wider front grille with vertical slats, giving it a stronger road presence. Vertically stacked LED headlamps and distinctive C-shaped daytime running lights enhance its modern identity. A silver skid plate adds a rugged touch, hinting at light off-road capability.

From the side, sleeker body lines and larger diamond-cut alloy wheels — up to 17 inches on the N Line — elevate its sporty stance. Bridge-type roof rails further boost its SUV appeal. At the rear, slimmer LED tail lamps connected by a light bar provide a premium finish. Slight increases in height, width, and length improve presence without compromising its sub-4m classification.

Premium and Tech-Loaded Cabin

Inside, the Venue receives a major upgrade with a dual-screen layout — either 10.2-inch or 12.3-inch curved displays — dominating the dashboard. Improved soft-touch materials, ambient lighting, and redesigned seats enhance comfort.

Engines and Performance

The Venue continues with its reliable engine lineup, including a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol paired with manual or DCT options, alongside naturally aspirated petrol and diesel choices. A 121-hp four-cylinder with CVT prioritises smooth urban driving. The N Line variant adds sportier detailing and a twin-tip exhaust for enthusiasts.

Safety and Pricing

Level 2 ADAS features such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, and autonomous emergency braking enhance driver confidence. Multiple airbags, ABS, and stability control remain standard.

With prices expected between Rs 9–19 lakh (ex-showroom), the 2026 Venue facelift aims to compete strongly against rivals like the Tata Nexon, offering a compelling blend of style, technology, and safety.

Reality show The 50 continues to keep viewers hooked, and its latest promo makes one thing clear — the drama is far from over. The controversial series, known for its unpredictable twists, now teases romance, playful moments, and yet another explosive clash inside the palace.

The newly released promo begins with actor Nia Sharma and Uorfi Javed making a striking entry and instantly grabbing attention. Contestants gather and the masked game master The Lion dedicates the episode to the girls.

Arbaz Patel And Prince Narula Get Into Ugly Spat On The 50

Soon after, Prince Narula is seen sharing a romantic moment with his wife Yuvika Choudhary. Prince says, “Yeh dil bahut chhota hai, par meri bhavnaayein bahut badhiya hain. I love you.” The couple then shares a kiss.

Next, Arbaz Patel proposes to girlfriend Nikki Tamboli. He goes down on one knee and declares, “Humne kabhi officially ek doosre ko propose nahi kiya, na kabhi dikhaya hai kidhar. I love you so much. I love you.” Nikki appears visibly surprised.

Uorfi Javed encourages male contestants of The 50 to impress the female participants. We then see several dance performances.

A task soon becomes the trigger for fresh conflict. Nia Sharma hands an old-age support stick to Sidharth Bhardwaj and instructs him, “You have to give the sticks to those do log jin ko aapko lagta hai hamesha support ki zaroorat hoti hai.”

Sidharth questions whether he should address the staff or the boss. Prince Narula jumps in, points towards Arbaz Patel and says, “Yeh jo piche taaliyan maar rahe hain na ek dusre ke liye.”

The comment instantly escalates the situation. Arbaz steps in and the verbal disagreement intensifies within seconds. Soon, the argument turns into a physical confrontation. Fellow contestants intervene to stop the clash from spiralling further.

Reacting to the promo video, one user wrote, “Arbaz be like gang leader ho ga ghar pe.”
Another commented, “Prince got someone who is actually more powerful than him. He thinks he is the one but arbaz shows him his place.”
A third joked, “Jamin pe dira diya princess ko.”
One more asked, “Yeh Prince show jeetne aaya hai ya apni izzat nilaam karwane?”

About The Reality Show

The 50 is Indian adaptation of the French reality format Les Cinquante and premiered on February 1, 2026, on JioHotstar and Colors TV. The show features 50 celebrities competing inside a lavish Mumbai palace for a Rs 50 lakh prize.

Since its launch, the show has remained in the headlines. Reports of heated arguments, contestant exits and physical altercations have fuelled constant debate. Yet, the controversies seem to be working in its favour.

Yash's Toxic Teaser Controversy

Yash starrer upcoming pan-India action film Toxic is once again making headlines due to teaser controversy. The short glimpse featuring an intimate car scene and a violent cemetery shootout has now drawn criticism from a Christian group. Read on to know more!

Christian Body Files Complaint, Demands Removal Of Toxic Teaser

The National Christian Federation (NCF) has filed a formal complaint with the Film Chamber of Commerce, the state government and the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The group claims the teaser hurts religious sentiments, particularly because it depicts Michael, the Archangel, alongside scenes of sex and violence. The complaint says these portrayals are inappropriate and disrespectful to religious beliefs.

The NCF has demanded that the scenes be removed immediately and called for the teaser to be taken down from YouTube and other platforms. Toxic teaser was released last month by KVN Productions and also revealed Yash’s first look from the film.

About Toxic Teaser Controversy

This is not the first time the Toxic teaser has caused a stir. The dirty car scene outside a cemetery had already sparked complaints, with many viewers calling it unnecessary and distasteful. Some alleged the sequence outraged the modesty of women. Actress Beatriz Taufenbach (who appears in the teaser) even deleted her Instagram account amid the backlash.

However, the film has also received support from filmmakers. At the 17th Bengaluru International Film Festival, during a session titled Fearless Film Making, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap defended the teaser. He praised it as an extremely courageous attempt and criticised double standards in audience reactions.

Kashyap said, “The outrage expressed against the teaser reveals our cultural hypocrisy. When male actors appear shirtless on screen or display excessive machismo, no one questions it. But when a woman celebrates her sexuality, it becomes hard to accept.”

About This Yash Starrer

Directed and co-written by Geetu Mohandas, Toxic – A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups is set in 1980s and 90s Goa and explores the dark underworld of a powerful drug cartel. Yash plays Raya, a menacing gangster at the centre of the story.

The film is India’s first to be shot simultaneously in English and Kannada, targeting both national and international audiences. The ensemble cast includes Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Huma Qureshi and Tara Sutaria. With a reported budget of Rs 200 crore, the film includes international talent, with action choreography by JJ Perry (John Wick) and visual effects by Academy Award-winning DNEG.

Despite early speculation about the release, producers have confirmed that Toxic is set for a worldwide theatrical release on March 19, during Eid and Ugadi. The film will clash with Ranveer Singh starrer Dhurandhar The Revenge at the box office. Fans are eagerly waiting to see Yash’s return after the KGF series, and the teaser controversy has only increased anticipation.

Udit Narayan Controversy: Is Singer Being Framed By 1st Wife Over Allegations Of Uterus Removal? Netizens Say, ‘He Is Shit Person But…’

Udit Narayan first wife accuses of removing her uterus

Singer Udit Narayan made headlines last year for a viral video of him kissing female fans at concerts. Now, he is facing serious allegations from his first wife, Ranjana Jha. She has filed a complaint claiming that her uterus was removed without her consent during a medical procedure decades ago.

The complaint was filed at the Women’s Police Station in Supaul (Bihar) on Tuesday. Accompanied by her lawyer Karunakant Jha, Ranjana said she discovered the surgery years later during medical treatment. She has also accused Udit Narayan’s brothers (Sanjay Kumar Jha and Lalit Narayan Jha) and his second wife (Deepa Narayan) of being involved.

Here’s What Ranjana Said About Udit Narayan

Ranjana told police that she married Udit on December 7, 1984 according to Hindu rituals. Udit moved to Mumbai in 1985 to pursue his singing career. She later learned about his second marriage through media reports. Whenever she confronted him, he misled her.

In her complaint, Ranjana said she was taken to a hospital in Delhi in 1996 under the pretext of medical treatment. There, she alleges, her uterus was removed without her knowledge. According to her, Udit, his brothers and Deepa Narayan were present during the hospital visit.

Netizens Question The Allegations

The complaint quickly went viral online, with social media users debating whether the claims are possible. Many questioned how a major surgery could go unnoticed for years.

Have a look at some user comments on Reddit below

“Udit Narayan might be a terrible man, but I have some questions. It’s a major surgery. You have to take medication to stop the pain for 2 weeks or so. There is a surgical scar. It’s not something you find years after the incident.”

“She won’t even have periods when her uterus is not there. Tab inko baad mein kaise pata ke uterus nahi hai.”

“Doctors don’t do this procedure without any medical emergency. It’s not a choice kind of operation ki jiska dil kia hata dia.”

“I know he is a shit person, but this is beyond disgusting and inhumane.”

Ranjana Says Udit Narayan Makes False Promises

Speaking to the media, Ranjana said, “You all know that Udit Narayan ji repeatedly makes promises but does not fulfil them. He has not done anything till now, which is why I have come to the Women’s Police Station. I deserve justice.”

She added that even the Women’s Commission initially refused to accept her complaint, and she had to submit a written application before it was registered. She said, “Even today, he continues to deceive me. Whenever he comes to the village, he makes the same promises again.” Ranjana also mentioned that she has been unwell and needs support, which she claims Udit has not provided.

The officer-in-charge, Anju Tiwari, confirmed the case is under investigation. “The dates mentioned are around 30 years old. An FIR will be filed once the facts are clear, and action will be taken accordingly,” she said.

So far, Udit Narayan has not commented on the complaint.

Delhi News: The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has announced a new opportunity for homebuyers under its Jan Sadharan Housing Scheme 2025 (Phase III), offering up to 25% special discount on flats in the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) category in Narela. The authority stated that this initiative aims to make affordable housing more accessible for low-income families seeking home ownership in Delhi.

Delhi News: DDA Offers 25% Discount on EWS Flats

According to DDA, 691 additional EWS flats have been made available under this phase. These units are located in Sectors G7/G8 and A1–A4 in Narela, and bookings officially opened on January 27, 2026. Officials emphasized that the flats are available in limited numbers, urging interested applicants to apply early to secure a unit.

DDA aims to reduce financial barriers for economically weaker sections

The housing authority highlighted that the discounted pricing is part of its broader strategy to promote inclusive urban development and ensure that affordable housing reaches deserving beneficiaries. By providing concessions in price, DDA aims to reduce financial barriers for economically weaker sections and encourage planned residential settlement in developing zones like Narela.

Authorities also noted that applicants can obtain detailed eligibility criteria, pricing, and booking procedures through the official DDA e-services portal. The scheme is expected to benefit first-time buyers and lower-income households looking for subsidized housing options in the national capital.

Officials said that Narela has been identified as a key growth corridor under Delhi’s urban expansion plans, with improved road connectivity, public infrastructure, and civic amenities gradually being developed in the region. The availability of subsidized flats is likely to accelerate population movement toward the area and support balanced urban growth beyond central districts.

DDA sources added that such housing schemes also help regulate unauthorized colonies and informal settlements by providing legal and affordable residential options. Urban planners believe that increasing supply in the affordable segment will stabilize property demand while ensuring that economically weaker groups are not pushed out of the city’s formal housing market.
