Big-Mouthed Blunder Of BJP MLA Bahadur Singh Shocks Nation! Sex Ratio Crisis Or Just Rajasthan’s Political Insanity?

Bahadur Singh: BJP MLA Bahadur Singh Koli has sparked a sexist controversy by remarking that the budget of present-day Bhajanlal Sharma government is like a “chora” (son) while that of the previous Congress government was like of a “chori” (daughter). Koli went on to remark that this is the biggest reason why the Congress is in the opposition seat today.

Interestingly, Rajasthan’s Finance Minister Diya Kumari, the granddaughter of Man Singh II, presented the budget on February 11. It is absurd to even think that a MLA from her party is belittling a girl child when the state’s Deputy Chief Minister Diya Kumari is herself a woman.

The Sexist Comments Of Bahadur Singh

Representing the Weir constitutency in Bharatpur district, Koli remarked that the budget of Bhartiaya Janata Party (BJP) was productive and youthful in contrast to the budget of Indian National Congress during the tenure of former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot that was an old-age budget.

Koli remarked that Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma delivered a son in the first budget, followed by sons again in the second and third budgets. The MLA remarked that the one who produces a son is always considered to be useful.

Reaction Of Congress Party

Swarnim Chaturvedi, Rajasthan Congress spokesperson, blasted Koli for his sexist comments. Chaturvedi they have crossed all limits just to criticize the Congress party and the comments of BJP MLA showed their biased mind-set towards the female gender.

The disgusting comments of Koli have once again shown that camels often outnumber common sense of some state politicians. For decades, the state has battled skewed demographics fuelled by illegal ultrasound scams, killings and early marriages of girl child, patriarchal mind-sets and dowry pressures. While government schemes such as Beti Bachao Beti Padao have poured in thousands of crores, the needle has barely budged.

Surprisingly, the sex ratio in Rajasthan is 928 i.e. for each 1000 male that is far below the national average of 940 as per latest census.

A state that has literally worshipped women like Rani Gayatri Devi, Rani Padmini, Rani Bhatiyani and goddesses like Karni Mata and Jeen Mata has gone deep below the mark of morality.

Hathras Viral Video: It’s often said that the shoulders of a father are always strong for the dreams of his children.

Hathras Viral Video-Turn Of Events

The Hathras Viral Video that is doing the rounds on social media is about Pyarelal, a resident of Hathras’s Aurangabad East locality, who is a labourer by profession. It is also about his daughter Manya who lost her legs in a machine when she was in 9th grade. Manya expressed her desire to continue education and the father obliged in ways that has broken the hearts of social media users across the world.

In the video, Pyarelal could be seen reaching the Sikandrarao tehsil’s Arya Kanya Inter College examination centre carrying Manya on his back. The father explained that he has been carrying Manya to and from school every day in the same manner ever since the accident.

A Big Lesson For Society, Says Netizens

The struggle and dedication of Manya and her father have become an inspiration not just for the entire state of Uttar Pradesh but also for the entire country.

A user commented, “Hats off to this amazing father who is carrying his adorable daughter on his back so she can continue her education.” Another user commented, “”A father is taking his disabled daughter to school for her board exams, meaning a parent will go to any lengths to help their children.” A user commented, “Pandey Lal ji’s dedication and Manya’s courage show that no matter the circumstances, dreams cannot be stopped. Such father-daughter love teaches society that daughters are not a burden – they are the greatest strength.”

Salim Khan Health Update: Angry Salman Khan Objects To ‘Unauthorised’ Revelation By Lilavati Hospital, Source Says ‘Family Wants To Avoid…’

The recent hospitalisation of Salim Khan has drawn strong public attention. However, the Khan family is now urging restraint and privacy. Reports suggest Salman Khan is unhappy with Lilavati Hospital authorities over what the family believes was an “unauthorised” disclosure.

The discussion began after doctors spoke to the media outside the hospital. While many fans appreciated the update, insiders say the family was not comfortable with the details being shared publicly.

Salman Khan And Family Angry With Lilavati Hospital

According to a Variety India report, Salman Khan and his family have formally requested the hospital administration to avoid releasing further medical bulletins without consent. The family reportedly wants all health-related communication to remain strictly private.

A source close to the family explained their position. “Health is a private matter. Ideally, no updates should be shared with the media and any communication should be left entirely to the family, if and when they choose to address fans and well-wishers.”

The source added, “Salman and his family were displeased with the doctor’s public statement and have clearly conveyed to the authorities that they do not want any further details disclosed.”

Salim Khan Health Update: What Happened

Salim Khan was rushed to Lilavati Hospital on February 17, 2026. He is currently under close medical supervision and receiving ventilator support.

On Wednesday, Dr Jalil Parkar briefly addressed the press. He confirmed that Salim Khan had suffered a minor brain haemorrhage. He also reassured reporters that doctors handled the situation promptly.

According to Dr Parkar, Salim Khan experienced jerks along with high blood pressure. The medical team intervened immediately. He clarified that ventilator support was given as a precautionary step, not because Salim Khan was critical.

Doctors carried out necessary investigations. They also performed what was described as a small, routine procedure. However, specific details of the treatment were not disclosed.

Dr Parkar stated that Salim Khan was stable and responding well. He was later shifted to the ICU for monitoring. The doctor expressed optimism and mentioned that Salim Khan could be taken off the ventilator soon. At the same time, doctors acknowledged that recovery may take time, considering his age.

Despite the family’s appeal for privacy, Lilavati Hospital has seen a steady stream of visitors. Family members spotted at the hospital include Salman Khan, Arbaaz Khan, Sohail Khan, Salma Khan, Helen, Alvira Agnihotri and Arpita Khan Sharma. Grandsons Arhaan and Nirvaan were also seen visiting.

Several well-known names from the film industry have reportedly visited as well. These include Javed Akhtar, Sanjay Dutt, Aamir Khan, Shilpa Shetty, Rahul Roy, Sangeeta Bijlani, Riteish Deshmukh, Iulia Vantur and politician Zeeshan Siddique.

Meanwhile, fans across social media continue to send prayers and well-wishes. The Khan family, however, remains focused on maintaining dignity and privacy during this sensitive time.

For now, doctors say Salim Khan’s condition is stable. Further updates are expected only if the family chooses to speak.

India AI Impact Summit 2026: Could Rural Jobs Explode By 10 Million, Fuel 15 Percent GDP Growth And Drive 150 Billion Dollars Rural Tech Export Wave?

India AI Impact Summit 2026

India AI Impact Summit 2026: The India AI Impact Summit 2026 highlighted the transformative power of rural India thanks to artificial intelligence. Hosted under the IndiaAI mission by Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), the summit gathers global leaders to explore the role of artificial intelligence in sectors like healthcare and agriculture, potentially unlocking massive economic gains and fuelling gross domestic product (GDP).

Key State-Level MOUs

The Bihar government signed memorandum of understanding (MOUs) worth Rs. 468 crore with technology firms and IIT Patna. This includes a Rs. 250 crore research park that would be the largest in Eastern India and a Rs. 60 crore AI Centre of Excellence (CoE) with Tiger Analytics for innovation and jobs.

Additionally, pacts covering Rs. 103 crore with Red Cyber, Rs. 30 crore from GrowQR and Rs. 25 crore from CIPL under the GCC and IT policies of the state, targeting AI hubs and employment in the state.

India AI Impact Summit 2026-Broader Investment Signals

According to industry experts, tens of billions are presently in pipelines for Graphics processing units (GPUs) (more than 38,000 under IndiaAI), semiconductors and artificial intelligence in healthcare/agriculture. The partnership with World Bank on artificial intelligence for compute access, growth and health emphasize on jobs and productivity.

These commitments by the Indian government position rural AI as a deep priority, aligning with inclusion of the India AI Impact Summit 2026 for scalable impact.

Rural Job Explosion Ahead?

Artificial Intelligence is likely to explode jobs in India’s rural and semi-rural areas to 10-15 million by blending technology with agriculture. According to studies in the past, more than 2.8 million IoT/AI jobs over 8-10 years in agriculture (2.1 million) and healthcare (0.7 million), via satellite mapping, e-markets and drones are likely to be created.

Initiatives such as free AI training for more than 5.5 lakh Village Level Entrepreneurs (VLEs) under Common Services Centres (CSCs) would target artificial intelligence and machine learning skills for crop prediction and telemedicine.

Priyanka Chopra: ‘Grabbed Driver’s Neck, Slapped Him…’ The Side Of Varanasi Actress’s Mother No One Knew – Why Madhu Chopra Lost Her Cool?

Priyanka Chopra Jonas is making headlines ahead of the release of her upcoming film. While promoting her new Amazon Prime Video release The Bluff, the actor shared a striking memory from her childhood. The story revealed a fierce and protective side of her mother, Madhu Chopra.

In The Bluff, Priyanka plays a strong mother who will go to any length to protect her family. Interestingly, the role reminded her of a real-life incident.

Priyanka Chopra Recalls How Madhu Chopra Grabbed Cab Driver’s Neck And Slapped Him

During an interview with ANI, Priyanka spoke about a tense moment she experienced as a child. Priyanka said, “I remember when her inner ka Bloody Mary came out. We were in a cab—I must have been 11 years old or something. Raat mein hum Delhi ke kisi hotel mein jaa rahe the (We were on our way to some hotel in Delhi at night). We were driving, and suddenly I don’t know all I saw was my mother holding the driver’s throat.”

Priyanka explained that the situation became frightening when the cab driver took a route her mother did not recognise.

Priyanka recalled, “Apparently, he took a turn that she didn’t recognise, and he said – Nahi nahi, main shortcut le raha hun. Raat ke 11 baj rahe the. Mummy aur main akele the (No, no, I’m taking a shortcut. It was 11 at night. It was just Mummy and me). But she just held his neck from the back and said – Drive back to the main road.”

She continued, “And she slapped him. She said, ‘Drive back to the main road.’ She was like, ‘I’m here with my teenage daughter.’ I had never seen that side of my mother. After that, I did not debate her on anything for the next four months. I don’t know if my mom would’ve reacted like that if she was alone. But because I was with her, she was shaking when we got back to the hotel.”

The memory clearly stayed with Priyanka. She said the incident helped her relate to her character in The Bluff. Above all, it showed her mother’s instinct to protect her.

About The Bluff And Priyanka’s Upcoming Projects

Set in the 19th-century Caribbean, The Bluff follows the story of a former female pirate whose past returns to haunt her. The film focuses on her desperate fight to save her family as danger closes in.

Karl Urban plays a feared pirate determined to hunt Priyanka’s character down. The teaser and early details promise gripping action and strong emotions. Priyanka appears in a bold, battle-ready avatar.

Produced by AGBO Studios and backed by Amazon MGM Studios, the film marks Priyanka’s next big streaming release after Citadel. The Bluff premieres on Prime Video on February 25.

Priyanka Chopra’s schedule remains busy. After The Bluff, she will return in Citadel Season 2, one of Prime Video’s most talked-about series. She is also set to return to Indian cinema. Priyanka will star alongside Mahesh Babu in SS Rajamouli’s highly anticipated project titled Varanasi.

Donald Trump: Pentagon Would Release Files On UFOs, Aliens And Extraterrestrial Life, Is This Just A Coverup To Hide Epstein Files Fiasco?

Donald Trump: United States President Donald Trump has remarked he has ordered the Pentagon to release all government files on extraterrestrial life, unidentified flying objects (UFOs), unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) and aliens.

Is Donald Trump Trying To Distract The World From Epstein Files?

Many in the political circles believe that the “excited and impatient” approach of the US President to release Pentagon files on UFOs could possibly be to distract the world from the horrible revelations of Epstein Files.

Barack Obama’s Possible Admission?

Last week, Barack Obama in an interview to podcast host Brian Tyler Cohen remarked that aliens are real but he is yet to see them in person. Obama had caused a stir by saying that he is personally not aware if there is an underground facility in Area 51.

Trump accused the former US President of sharing “classified information” with the world.

Interestingly, Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump remarked that Donald Trump could soon deliver a speech on aliens at the right time. However, White House Press secretary Karoline Leavitt was quite to refute the comment by saying a speech on aliens is news to her.

In 2017, public interest in UFOs and extraterrestrial life re-emerged after several government and Pentagon officials released videos captured by US Navy of unknown objects to the media. In May 2022, Congress held its first hearings on UFOs but ended up saying that the objects claimed to be UFOs were likely drones.

A Pentagon report concluded that the suggested spike in the sightings of UFOs in the 1950s and 1960s were possibly attributable to tests of advanced US space technology and spy planes. The report that was issued by All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) of the Pentagon had noted that public opinion about UFOs was possibly swayed by pop culture.

Level 2 ADAS & 12.3-inch Screen: Why the 2026 Tata Punch EV is the New Gold Standard for Commuters?

2026-Tata-Punch-EV
google

India’s EV market is evolving fast. But one model now stands out for everyday drivers. The 2026 Tata Punch EV blends safety, technology and practicality in a way few compact SUVs have achieved.

Level 2 ADAS Makes 2026 Tata Punch EV a Safety Leader

Tata Punch EV becomes the first micro-SUV in India to offer Level 2 ADAS. The system includes adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, automatic emergency braking and blind-spot monitoring.

For city commuters, this is a major upgrade. Traffic sign recognition and driver attention warning reduce fatigue in congested areas. The car already carries a 5-star safety rating. Now, advanced driver assistance strengthens its appeal further.

12.3-inch Screen Brings Premium Tech to Daily Drives

The new 12.3-inch touchscreen, borrowed from the Tata Nexon EV, transforms the cabin experience. It supports wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. A digital driver display complements the infotainment unit for seamless navigation and call management.

The large display improves map visibility and media control. For professionals commuting daily, this adds convenience and comfort.

Practical Range and Smart Pricing Advantage

The 35 kWh battery delivers a claimed range of up to 421 km. Even the lower variant offers strong city usability. With 190 mm ground clearance and 366 litres of boot space, it handles Indian roads and short trips easily.

Priced between ₹10–15 lakh, it undercuts rivals like Citroën eC3 and MG Comet EV in overall feature value. Neither competitor offers Level 2 ADAS.

The 2026 Tata Punch EV does not just update features. It resets expectations. For urban India, it may well become the new gold standard for smart commuting.

Toxic Teaser: ‘Everything Looks Artificial…’ Yash Starrer Criticised For Heavy VFX, Gets Compared To Hrithik Roshan’s War 2

Yash's Toxic Teaser criticised for heavy VFX

Toxic Teaser: The teaser for Yash starrer Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups has finally arrived and it is already sparking debate online. Released ahead of the film’s worldwide premiere on March 19, the teaser promised scale, style and intense action. However, reactions have been sharply divided.

Fans had been waiting eagerly ever since Yash’s striking “Daddy’s home” character reveal. Expectations were huge. Yet within hours of the teaser launch, social media platforms (especially Reddit) were filled with mixed opinions.

Toxic Teaser Criticised For Heavy VFX

The two-minute Toxic teaser appears to be set at a lavish party. It opens with flashy visuals, stylised violence and a strong sense of danger. The mood is dark, bold and intense.

The footage hints at ruthless killings, betrayal and power struggles. Yash’s character, Raya, dominates the screen with a fierce and commanding presence. The teaser then moves through several large-scale action sequences, including dramatic stunts in the air and scenes set against snowy backdrops.

One dialogue quickly caught viewers’ attention. Yash delivers the line with icy confidence. He is heard saying – “It’s over, when I say it’s over. Till then, have some manners.”

Toxic teaser ends on a shocking note. Yash appears in a very different avatar, wielding a chainsaw in a brutal action moment. To widen its reach, the teaser was released in Kannada, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam.

Soon after the teaser dropped, Reddit users began sharing strong reactions. While some praised Yash’s screen presence, many criticised the heavy use of visual effects.

Have a look at some user comments below:

  • “How is everyone liking the “visuals”… There is just too much VFX… It’s all looking so artificial.”
  • “Everything looks artificial. Reminding of War 2-like visuals.”
  • “Too much VFX. It looks like they’ve used VFX for almost every action sequence, and the teaser doesn’t reach any high point—it just feels flat.”
  • “Heropanti 2 in 8k.”
  • “Is this supposed to be a spoof? Sorry, so over the top and unintentionally funny.”

Meanwhile, fans also speculated about Yash’s role:

  • “Looks like he’s playing Villain and hero both (Maybe Father & Son)”
  • “Is Yash playing father and son both ?”

About Toxic: A Fairytale For Grown-Ups

Despite mixed teaser reactions, Toxic remains one of the most talked-about films of 2026. Directed by Geetu Mohandas, the gangster thriller is set in Goa between the 1940s and 1970s.

The story follows a man’s brutal rise to power amid smuggling routes, colonial shadows and violent crime syndicates. The film promises a mix of psychological drama, betrayal and bloodshed.

Yash headlines the project in a dual role as Raya and Rumi, marking his return four years after the KGF franchise. The cast includes:

  • Nayanthara as Ganga
  • Kiara Advani as Nadia
  • Huma Qureshi as Elizabeth
  • Tara Sutaria as Rebecca
  • Rukmini Vasanth as Melissa

The film features music by Ravi Basrur and action choreography by Hollywood stunt director JJ Perry. It has been shot simultaneously in Kannada and English. It is set to clash with Ranveer Singh starrer Dhurandhar The Revenge at the box office.

Board Of Peace: India Attends Meeting As Observer Country, Is Trump Hellbent On Creating A Viable Alternative To United Nations?

Board Of Peace

Board Of Peace: India has finally attended the first meeting of the Board of Peace formulated by United States President Donald Trump as an observer country. This was after the Indian Ministry of External Affairs last week remarked that it is evaluating the prospect of joining the Board of Peace. India was represented by Namgya C Khampa, the Charge d’Affaires at the Indian Embassy in Washington District of Columbia.

Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal had then remarked that India confirms the receipt of an invitation from the United States government to join the Board of Peace. Jaiswal also added that the Asian superpower has always supported initiatives for promoting peace in West Asia. The Indian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson had also remarked that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has always been appreciative of such peace-nurturing initiatives that would ensure peace, both short and long term, in the entire region.

Last month, Trump rolled out the Board at the Davos’ World Economic Forum. He had then remarked that every nation of the world want to be an integral part of the board and it could possibly rival the United Nations.

Why Was The Board Of Peace Formed?

Originally, the Board of Peace was envisioned as an organization to oversee the Israel and Hamas ceasefire in Gaza. It was also formulated to rebuild the heavily damaged city of Gaza after merciless bombings by Israeli armed and air forces.

Till now, officials from more than 50 countries have participated in the meeting of the Board of Peace that was held at Washington’s US Institute of Peace.

Many believe that the Board of Peace is just another mirage by Trump to replace the United Nations. This was primarily because the United Nations was going weaker with every passing year and was not succumbing to the atrocities of the United States.

Participating Countries

Some of the countries that have already joined the Board of Peace include Indonesia, Israel, Jordan, Morocco, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Egypt, Hungary, Turkey, the UAE, Uzbekistan and Vietnam. Interestingly, the European Union and India that were once the United States’ greatest allies have refrained from joining the board and just marked their presence as observers.

“Saturday” Deadline Looms! Could Donald Trump Order Airstrikes if Geneva Nuclear Talks Fail Amid Rising Iran–US Tensions?

Iran-US-Tensions
google

Iran US Tensions: Global attention has shifted to Geneva. Diplomatic talks between Washington and Tehran have resumed. But speculation over a “Saturday deadline” for US airstrikes has triggered fresh anxiety. Despite strong warnings from Donald Trump, officials confirm no fixed Saturday timeline exists.

Iran–US Tensions Rise as Talks Continue

Indirect nuclear negotiations between the US and Iran restarted in Geneva this week. Donald Trump warned of “serious consequences” if Iran refuses to curb its nuclear programme. He reportedly set a 10–15 day window for progress. However, he did not announce a specific Saturday deadline.

The crisis traces back to the ongoing 2026 United States–Iran crisis, which has seen heightened military alerts and sharp rhetoric from both sides.

Military Posture Signals Readiness, Not Decision

The US has strengthened its presence in the region. The aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford has been deployed as part of strategic positioning. Pentagon officials confirmed that military options, including strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, remain on the table.

However, sources stress that no final order has been signed. The White House continues to state that diplomacy remains the preferred path. Iran, on the other hand, has warned of retaliation and conducted joint drills with Russia.

Could Airstrikes Follow If Talks Collapse?

The possibility of airstrikes cannot be ruled out if negotiations break down. In June 2025, failed talks led to targeted US strikes, raising fears of a repeat scenario.

For now, Iran–US Tensions remain high but fluid. There is no confirmed Saturday deadline. The coming days will prove critical. If diplomacy succeeds, escalation may be avoided. If not, West Asia could face another dangerous flashpoint.

Is Pakistan Cricket in Serious Trouble? Wasim Akram to Salman Agha, Hesson Argument, Storm Brewing Under Mohsin Naqvi’s Nose

Mohsin-Naqvi
google

Pakistan cricket stands at a crossroads. Defeats sting. But internal cracks hurt more. From public criticism by legends to on-field arguments and political controversy, the storm now circles around one name — Mohsin Naqvi.

Wasim Akram’s Criticism Raises Questions

Legendary pacer Wasim Akram did not hide his disappointment after Pakistan’s Asia Cup 2025 setback against India. He called the batting collapse “tough to watch.” He openly criticised captain Salman Agha for playing too many dot balls and failing to show intent during the chase.

Akram supported the transition from senior players like Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan in T20Is. However, he stressed that the new leadership must attack spinners and adapt quickly. His words reflect growing frustration among former players.

Salman Agha–Hesson Argument Exposes Dressing Room Rift

The situation worsened during the 2026 T20 World Cup. After a heavy loss to India, cameras captured a heated exchange between Salman Agha and head coach Mike Hesson during a match against Namibia.

Agha threw a water bottle in frustration after his dismissal. Reports suggest Hesson later reprimanded players strongly in the dressing room. Talks of benching senior stars added fuel to the fire. Such public scenes signal deeper unrest inside the team.

Storm Brewing Under Mohsin Naqvi’s Leadership

PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi now faces mounting criticism. His earlier threats to boycott the 2026 T20 World Cup over India matches drew backlash. Critics accused him of mixing politics with cricket.

Even after government intervention ensured participation, Pakistan struggled on the field. The 2024 T20 World Cup exit had already damaged confidence. Now, fresh defeats and administrative controversies intensify pressure.

Pakistan cricket has survived crises before. But this time, the issues run deeper — fragile batting, coaching tension, and leadership questions. If reforms do not come soon, the storm under Mohsin Naqvi’s watch could grow stronger.

Are Owners of Galgotias University Using Big Ticket Political Heavyweights’ Names to Lure Student Admissions?

Galgotias University
Image Credit: Google

Galgotias University: Have you ever wondered about the plight of thousands of students whose parents spend a fortune only for their adored children to graduate with a resume screaming “Robodog Scammer” instead of a “Future CEO?” Welcome to Galgotias University!

Galgotias University-Marketing Tactics

Founder Suneel Galgotia and son as well as the university’s CEO Dhruv Galgotia have often been accused using political patronage to win big-time admissions from aspirational families. The Instagram reels and admission portal of the Greater Noida based Galgotias University highlight awards by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and several visits by top ministers of the union and state governments alongside top placement statistics.

Interestingly, several billboards in Delhi NCR make tall claims, targeting aspirational families.

In 2014, PM Modi gave the best private university in India award to Galgotias University. This became the university’s brochure centrepiece and a powerful trust booster, especially among the followers of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

Eminent BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra attended the university as a convocation speaker and many believed that it created a massive surge in the appeal of BJP among the youth. Guest lectures by several political personalities such as Piyush Goyal, the Minister of Commerce and Industry of India, brought in several industry tie-ins for placements’ pitch.

Robodog Misrepresentation Fiasco

In February 2026, Galgotias University drew national and global ridicule at the India AI Impact Summit 2026 after it fraudulently showcased a Chinese-made Unitree robodog as it built from scratch, Make in India product and an indigenous innovation.

University Professor Neha Singh initially presented the Robodog as a creation by the Galgotias University’s Centre of Excellence. Soon, Chinese X handles blasted it citing that the product was actually a Chinese import by the university. Fearing backlash, Neha Singh immediately backtracked from her previous statement and said the Orion was not a creation of the university but was merely used for research and development.

In the past, a male B. Tech. student in 2018 alleged drugging and sexual assault in a private hostel by senior. There have been several protest movements against fee hikes against the Galgotias University after which the university reduced its course fees to a small extent.

House Of The Dragon Season 3 Teaser Trailer: Matt Smith Starrer Hints At Betrayal, Bloodshed And Throne Room Clash – Did You Spot It?

House Of The Dragon Season 3 Teaser Trailer

HBO has released the first teaser trailer for House of the Dragon Season 3, and fans are already analysing every second. The 80-second preview dropped on February 19, 2026, confirming a June 2026 premiere window.

The teaser carries the haunting tagline “From Fire Comes Darkness.” That message sets the tone instantly. The Dance of the Dragons is no longer about strategy or restraint. Instead, it is about survival, revenge and total war.

From the opening frames, the mood feels darker and more intense. Alliances look fragile, loyalties appear uncertain and the fight for the Iron Throne seems more brutal than ever.

House Of The Dragon Season 3 Brings War To The Forefront

The teaser wastes no time signalling escalation. Matt Smith’s Daemon Targaryen appears rallying forces, making it clear that diplomacy has failed.

One of the biggest highlights is the long-awaited Battle of the Gullet. This legendary clash between House Velaryon and the Triarchy finally takes centre stage. The battle was originally planned for the Season 2 finale but was postponed due to its enormous production demands.

Reports suggest that experts with experience on Titanic were involved to refine the complex sea-based effects. The teaser offers glimpses of burning ships, crashing waves and dragons soaring above chaos. These flashes hint that the sequence could become one of the show’s most spectacular moments.

Key Reveals In House Of The Dragon Season 3 Teaser Trailer

Several blink-and-you’ll-miss-it details stand out:

  • Tessarion Appears: A brief shot introduces Tessarion, the Blue Queen. This moment confirms the arrival of Daeron Targaryen, Alicent’s youngest son.
  • Aemond Claims the Throne: With Aegon II shown injured and in hiding, Aemond Targaryen is seen seated on the Iron Throne. He boldly declares a “new line of unsullied kings.”
  • Battle of the Gullet Preview: Jacaerys rides Vermax into a fiery naval confrontation, teasing devastation.
  • New Faces Enter the Story: James Norton appears as Ormund Hightower, while Tommy Flanagan joins as Lord Roderick Dustin of the Winter Wolves.
  • Otto Hightower’s Isolation: Despite being dismissed as Hand, Otto appears reflective and vulnerable, questioning Viserys’ past choices.

Each reveal deepens the tension as the civil war intensifies.

Hidden Clues Fuel Fan Theories

Beyond the obvious moments, subtle visuals have sparked speculation:

  • Rhaenyra’s Silent Tears: The final shot shows Rhaenyra at Dragonstone, visibly emotional. Many believe this hints at tragedy following the Battle of the Gullet.
  • The Empty Saddle of Tessarion: Tessarion approaches camp without a rider, raising questions about Daeron’s entrance.
  • Iron Throne Room Duel: A split-second glimpse of soldiers drawing swords suggests violent conflict inside the Red Keep.
  • Daemon in Dragonfire-Lit Streets: One frame appears to place Daemon in King’s Landing, hinting that the city’s fall may come sooner than expected.
  • Lord Corlys’ Horrified Gaze: His expression of dread suggests destruction at sea.
  • Rhaenyra Battering a Door: A frantic moment that signals desperation and danger.

These fleeting scenes suggest betrayal, loss and unexpected twists ahead.

Production Updates And What’s Next

Filming for the eight-episode season wrapped in October 2025, with shoots across the UK, Wales and Spain. Showrunner Ryan Condal and George RR Martin remain executive producers.

HBO has also confirmed the series will conclude after Season 4 in 2028. That announcement raises the stakes for Season 3, which now appears set to reshape the battle for Westeros.

Eric Dane Death: Hollywood is mourning the loss of Eric Dane. The actor, loved for his role as Dr Mark “McSteamy” Sloan on Grey’s Anatomy and his performance in HBO’s Euphoria, died on February 19, 2026. He was 53.

The news of Eric Dane’s death has left fans shocked and heartbroken. Dane had revealed his diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in April 2025. From that moment, he spoke openly about his health. He described the disease as “nasty” and shared how it was changing his life.

By late 2025, his condition had worsened. He needed a wheelchair and full-time care. Despite this, Dane continued raising awareness about ALS. He used his platform to highlight the realities of the disease and the urgent need for research. According to reports, he passed away surrounded by family and loved ones. His ex-wife Rebecca Gayheart and their two daughters stayed close to him throughout his illness.

His final screen appearance added a deeply emotional touch. In Brilliant Minds, Dane portrayed a character living with ALS.

Eric Dane Death Brings Attention To ALS

Eric Dane death has once again drawn attention to ALS, a condition many people know by name but not by detail.

ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease. It attacks motor neurons, the nerve cells that control voluntary muscle movement. As these neurons break down, the brain loses its ability to send signals to muscles.

Over time, patients may experience:

Muscle weakness

Difficulty walking

Trouble speaking and swallowing

Loss of mobility

Breathing problems

Eventually, ALS leads to paralysis. Sadly, there is no cure. Treatments can only slow progression or ease symptoms. One of the most devastating aspects of ALS is that it usually does not affect the senses. Many patients remain mentally alert while losing physical abilities.

Eric Dane Death Highlights How Rare ALS Really Is

ALS is considered a rare disease, yet the statistics often surprise people.

Incidence: Around 1 to 2 new cases per 100,000 people each year

Prevalence: About 5 to 6 per 100,000 people live with ALS

Lifetime risk: Roughly 1 in 300 by age 85

That “1 in 300” figure can feel startling. While ALS is uncommon, the lifetime odds are higher than many expect for such a severe illness.

Who Is Most At Risk?

ALS can affect adults from any background. However, certain patterns are seen. Most cases begin between ages 40 and 70. Peak onset is around age 60 90% to 95% of cases are sporadic. 5% to 10% are inherited. Men have a slightly higher risk. Some research suggests people with military service may face up to twice the risk. Scientists are still studying the reasons behind this link.

Progression And Survival

ALS typically progresses steadily once symptoms appear.

Average survival: 2 to 5 years after symptom onset

Long-term survival: About 10% to 20% live 10 years or more

The most common cause of death is respiratory failure, as breathing muscles weaken.

Eric Dane’s openness during his illness helped many understand ALS more clearly. He will be remembered not only as a charismatic actor but also as someone who faced a cruel disease with honesty and courage
