 A column by TV personality Jeremy Clarkson in the Sun newspaper in which he wrote he hoped Prince Harry's wife Meghan would one day be forced to parade naked through the streets was sexist, Britain's press regulator said on Friday. The Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) ruled the column contained a pejorative and prejudicial reference to Meghan's sex, in breach of the Editors' Code of Practice. The opinion piece, published in December 2022 and since withdrawn by the Sun, drew widespread condemnation from members of the public, politicians, Clarkson's employers and even his own daughter after he wrote that he hated Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, on a "cellular level". The column became the most complained-about article for IPSO, who said it generated over 25,000 complaints from members of the public. Clarkson and the Sun, owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp, apologised but IPSO launched an investigation based on complaints from two wom

Union Minister Rajeev Chandrasekhar on Friday took a jibe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's Manipur visit to Manipur and said that he engages in what he called "vulture tourism". Mr Chandrasekhar accused Mr Gandhi of visiting places where people are suffering instead of actively addressing the long-standing issues in those societies "I find that Rahul Gandhi always has this habit of making these visits almost look like a vulture tourist goes and travels places where suffering is going on. Instead of contributing to decades of tension in some societies that have been ignored by years under the previous government, he goes there for a little vulture tourism visit," Mr Chandrasekhar said. He expressed his hope that Mr Gandhi finds satisfaction in his photo opportunities during his visit and returns to his usual activities during his holidays in foreign countries. "I don't want to comment too much about it. I certainly think that all want peace to be re

A 22-year-old Delhi University student and his friend were allegedly thrashed by six men for not giving side to their car in the DLF Phase 1 area, police said on Thursday. According to the complaint, Raja, a student of a DU college in Malviya Nagar, was on his way to Gwal Pahari from Baliawas in his car on Wednesday, when around 4.30 pm he was overtaken by a Maruti Baleno. He was with his friend Praveen. "On the way, a Baleno car overtook us near Baliawas chowk. Around six youths got down from the car and beat us with sticks arguing why we were not giving them side," the first year BA student said in his complaint. The men threatened to kill us and fled in their car, he said, according to police. After the incident, Raja and Praveen went to a nearby hospital for dressing and called police. On the basis of the student's complaint, an FIR was registered against six unidentified youths under sections 148 (riots), 149 (unlawful assembly), 341 (wrongful confinement), 323

Affirmative action has been banned in the United States following a decision by the Supreme Court on Thursday that the practice of taking race and ethnicity into account during the college admissions process is unconstitutional. The decision deals a major blow to a decades-old practise that boosted educational opportunities for African-Americans and other minorities, ending decades of precedent that had allowed schools nationwide to use such programmes to increase the diversity of their student bodies.

The car company announced that it has received a Special Airworthiness Certification from the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), according to Aviation law firm Aero Law Center .

In a new verbal slip-up, US President Joe Biden said on Wednesday that Russian President Vladimir Putin was "losing the war in Iraq" when he meant to say Ukraine. Speaking to reporters briefly before departing the White House on a trip to Chicago, Joe Biden was asked if Vladimir Putin had been weakened by the brief uprising led by a Russian mercenary chief whose forces had been fighting against Ukraine. "It's hard to tell really. But he's clearly losing the war in Iraq. He's losing the war at home and he has become a bit of a pariah around the world. And it's not just NATO, it's not just the European Union. It's Japan, it's 40 nations," he said. It was the second slip-up in 24 hours. On Tuesday night, President Biden corrected himself at a campaign fundraising event - referring to China when he meant India, whose prime minister, Narendra Modi, visited the White House a week ago. "You probably saw my new best friend - the prime mi

Australia's David Warner made England pay for dropping him in helpful conditions with a quickfire fifty before the hosts removed Usman Khawaja after protesters briefly disrupted the second Ashes Test at Lord's on Wednesday. It looked like Australia would get through the first day's opening session without losing a wicket when, to what became the last ball before lunch, Josh Tongue bowled Khawaja, playing no shot, for 17 with a delivery that cut back in. Fellow left-handed opener Warner was 53 not out in Australia's total of 73-1. That still represented a good morning's work for Australia, 1-0 up in the five-match series after a thrilling two-wicket win in last week's first Test at Edgbaston. Australia were sent into bat by England captain Ben Stokes on a green-tinged Lord's pitch and under overcast skies that aided the hosts' four-strong frontline pace attack. The match was briefly halted before the second over when two Just Stop Oil protesters ran

Prime Minister Narendra Modi returned to India Sunday night after his six-day visit to the US and Egypt during which several landmark agreements were signed.

In a weird turn of events aboard the Vande Bharat Express on Sunday, a man boarded the train from the northern Kasaragod district of Kerala and then shut himself inside one of its washrooms refusing to come out from there, Railway officials said. He was brought out only after the train reached Shornur railway station in Palakkad after breaking open the washroom door, officials said. Dressed in a red striped t-shirt, the man looked scared when he was taken out of the washroom, according to visuals of the incident shown on TV channels. The visuals later showed him being questioned by Railway Protection Force (RPF) officials on the station platform. Railway officials said that initially the man claimed he was from Maharashtra and was speaking in Hindi, but later he said that he was from Kasaragod and therefore, his identity was yet to be ascertained. The man did not have a ticket either, they added. He also told the RPF that someone was after him and while trying to run away from th

Militia leader Yevgeny Prigozhin who turned his Wagner force against the military leadership in Moscow, will leave for Belarus and a criminal case against him will be dropped, the Kremlin said Saturday. "Avoiding bloodshed, internal confrontation, and clashes with unpredictable results was the highest goal," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters. Under the agreement, brokered by Belarusian President Aleksander Lukashenko, Wagner fighters will not be prosecuted, Peskov added. "We have always respected their heroic deeds at the front." "An agreement has been reached that Wagner would return to its bases," Peskov said, adding that those fighters who had not participated in the rebellion would be allowed to formally join the Russian army. Prigozhin called off his troops' advance toward Moscow on Saturday, pulling Russia back from its most serious security crisis in decades.

A 48-year-old woman was allegedly hacked to death on a flyover in Vijayawada Saturday night by her son-in-law for “encouraging” his wife to go ahead with divorce, police said. Rajesh (37) killed Nagamani (47) on Chanumolu Venkata Rao flyover around 9 pm, they said. “It is a murder committed by son-in-law. The dead (person) is mother-in-law. A divorce petition is pending before the court,” Vijayawada West ACP Hanumantha Rao told PTI. According to the police, Rajesh bore a grudge against Nagamani for allegedly encouraging her daughter to file a divorce petition.

A whopping Rs 23,000 crore tax evasion has been found in tax searches at multiple locations of Shree Cement Ltd in Rajasthan, sources have told NDTV, claiming it is one of the biggest tax evasion to date. The tax searches against the Kolkata-headquartered cement firm continued for the second time his week. The tax officials, say sources, recovered forged documents. The deductions claimed by the company, which is one of India's top three cement producers, are false, sources added. The sources say that the company siphoned off Rs 1200-1400 crore every year in tax evasion and the centre and the state government have suffered a huge loss of revenue due to fake agreements.

Former Australian pace bowler Brett Geeves believes England's ultra-aggressive approach is likely to backfire during the Ashes, adding that the declaration on day one of the first Test at Edgbaston was a sign of "wild arrogance" on the part of Ben Stokes' side. England had declared their first innings on 393 for eight despite Joe Root batting on an unbeaten 118, and the home side could have easily scored a few more, which could have given them a psychological advantage. The decision to declare was criticised by several experts and Australia went on to win the thrilling Test by two wickets. Geeves, who has played one ODI and two T20Is for Australia and has been a successful first-class bowler, said 'Bazball' -- the term coined for England's overly aggressive and result-oriented style of play -- is unlikely to work against Australia. "It (Bazball) sets them (England) up to fail and to me it kind of feels like 'even if we lose we're playing the

"Today, seeing that we have not been broken, they conducted missile strikes at our rear camps."

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Friday claimed that there are many “Hussain Obama in India” and his priority will be in dealing with them, reacting to a social media post speculating if Assam police will go to arrest former US president Barack Obama over his remarks on the alleged vulnerability of minorities in India. His remark has drawn opposition flak with leaders asking if he was "disregarding" statements made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the US. "There are many Hussain Obama in India itself. We should prioritize taking care of them before considering going to Washington. The Assam police will act according to our own priorities," the BJP leader wrote on Twitter, sharing a post by a prominent journalist.

Former US president Barack Obama said Thursday that India risks "pulling apart" if the Muslim minority is not respected, calling for the issue to be raised with Prime Minister Narendra Modi.  Hours after his comments, US President Joe Biden, addressing a joint press conference with PM Modi, said that believing in the dignity of every citizen is in India's DNA. "We believe in the dignity of every citizen, it's in America's DNA and I believe in India's DNA that a whole world has a stake in our success," Biden said. In an interview with CNN earlier, Mr Obama said: "If I had a conversation with Prime Minister Modi, who I know well, part of my argument would be that if you do not protect the rights of ethnic minorities in India, there is a strong possibility at some point that India starts pulling apart." On Biden's meeting with PM Modi, Mr Obama said, "If the President meets with Prime Minister Modi, then the protection of the Musli

The Jammu and Kashmir administration today terminated the services of two doctors for allegedly "actively working" with Pakistan-based groups and fabricating evidence in the 2009 "Shopian rape-murder" case. The action comes 14 years after a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation or CBI unearthed the conspiracy behind case.

US Coast Guard, Canadian military planes, French vessels, and teleguided robots are part of the multinational operation to find the submersible that went missing on Sunday when it was headed to the wreck of the Titanic. According to the US Coast Guard, the people on the submersible have less than 12 hours' worth of oxygen remaining, which has resulted in the rescuers working round the clock. The Titan was designed to have an oxygen supply of as much as 96 hours in case of an emergency. The crew of the Titan is believed to have limited rations on board. Among the five people aboard the missing vessel are British billionaire Hamish Harding, Pakistani tycoon Shahzada Dawood, and his son. A Canadian plane with sonar capabilities looking for the Titan vessel picked up sounds on Wednesday, and remotely operated vehicles were moved to the area where the noises originated.

Roger Federer described Novak Djokovic's record-breaking 23rd Grand Slam title achievement as "unbelievable" on Wednesday but avoided anointing his old rival as the greatest player of all time. "I think what Novak has done is unbelievable," said Federer, who racked up 20 Grand Slams before he retired last year. Djokovic edged ahead of 22-time major winner Rafael Nadal when he won his third French Open in Paris earlier this month. Federer, 41, speaking at the Halle grass-court tournament on Wednesday, admitted however it was "hard to say" who was best player of all time. "The whole matter is difficult to answer," said Federer. "I asked a friend, what is more difficult, winning Wimbledon at 17, like Boris Becker, or the French Open at 36 like Novak?" "I don't know. It's a great time to be a tennis fan but also a player," added the Swiss great who was guest of honour in Halle for 'Roger Federer Day'. "

Firefighters were called to the scene when a little dog was stuck in a bathroom of a Texas home. After some battle, the crew managed to free the dog. The Woodlands Fire Department said in a Facebook post that this morning the crew from E102 was confronted with an unusual problem. A small dog had managed to wedge himself behind a toilet. "Firefighters found that "Tippy" was well and truly stuck. They tried several things, but in the end they had to remove a small amount of Sheetrock to free the pinned pooch." "Tippy was returned to his owner and was last seen dozing comfortably in a much less precarious place," the post said. "It's just another day! Saving Tippy, our town, you and me!
