31-Test Veteran Emerges As Strong Contender For India Chief Selector's Job

Former India opener Wasim Jaffer has applied for the vacant senior national selector's post, putting himself in contention for a position that fell vacant after the BCCI decided against renewing Ajit Agarkar's contract. "Yes, I have applied for the job," Jaffer confirmed to PTI. The 48-year-old Jaffer played 31 Tests for India, scoring close to 2,000 runs, including five centuries. His Test hundreds included a double century against the West Indies and a hundred in South Africa. He also scored a double century against Pakistan in Kolkata. If selected by the Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC), comprising Ashok Malhotra and Jatin Paranjape, Jaffer would have the highest number of Test appearances among the candidates being considered for the chairman's position. With 31 Tests, he has a better playing record in the longest format than Pragyan Ojha, who represented India in 24 Tests. Under the existing selection process, the member from the zone with the highest num...

Users Question Authenticity Of Viral Post As Bride's Train Photo Goes Viral

A photo of a bride sitting on the floor of a train went viral after many social media users shared it on their profiles, criticising many factors behind this pathetic travel situation.

X influencer Potato used the image and wrote, "Dear parents, please don't marry your daughter to a man who cannot afford a decent lifestyle for himself and also your daughter. Sooner or later, an economic crisis will become the reason for their daily fights."

Another influencer, Lakshay Chaudhary, also shared the same image in his story and wrote, "Sex and marriage should be allowed according to individual ITR in India." He further said, "No income, no marriage."

Both the influencers received a variety of reactions from several users on social media. But things became more controversial when a social media user named Jitesh with the X handle @Chaotic_mind99 claimed that the woman in the red saree is her wife, and he blamed the Indian Railways and Railway Minister for this and wrote, "Thank you, Ashwini Vaishnaw ji; because of you, my wife is getting this world-class train facility today. I will always be indebted to you."

In response to Jitesh's post, the official Railways handle requested the PNR number multiple times to investigate the situation and take appropriate action. However, despite three reminders, Jitesh (@Chaotic_mind99) failed to provide the details. This silence led many social media users to question the authenticity of the post, with several claiming it to be misleading and lacking any credible evidence.

"He will not share anything because the aim is to spread propaganda," commented a user on Jitesh's post.

"What an irresponsible person you are; you can't reserve a seat in advance for yourself and your wife and are blaming the ministry for your own irresponsibility. Loser," wrote another user on Jitesh's post.

Harvard Astrophysicist Says He Found Alien Tech From A Meteor: Report

A Harvard University astrophysicist claims to have made a significant advancement in the quest for extraterrestrial life. Professor Avi Loeb thinks he may have discovered pieces of alien technology from a meteor that crashed in 2014 off the coast of Papua New Guinea. According to CBS News , Loeb and his team just brought the materials back to Harvard for analysis. The U.S. Space Command can confirm with almost near certainty, 99.999%, that it came from another solar system. The government gave Loeb a 10-kilometre (6.2-mile) radius of where it may have landed. "That is where the fireball took place, and the government detected it from the Department of Defence. It's a very big area, the size of Boston, so we wanted to pin it down," said Loeb. "We figured the distance of the fireball based on the time delay between the arrival of the blast wave, the boom of the explosion, and the light that arrived quickly." According to USA Today, the fragments the team uncov...
