India's 156.7 Kmph Pace Sensation To Return For LSG. But There Is A Twist

Lucknow Super Giants fast bowler Mayank Yadav has recovered from his injuries and will soon join the franchise in the ongoing IPL 2025, according to a report by India Today . The report claimed that Mayank, who missed the first part of the competition, is all set to join LSG on Tuesday. While the franchise retained Mayank for Rs 11 crore, the fast bowler was not fit for the new season and had to continue his recovery at the BCCI's Centre of Excellence. However, according to the report, he has received the green signal and the decision to play him in the IPL will now rest on the franchise. "Top sources have informed India Today that he is fit to play, but the final call will rest with the LSG coaching staff, who will be monitoring the player closely," the report stated. Lucknow Super Giants were missing the services of four fast bowlers at the start of the season. However, Akashdeep and Avesh Khan made their comebacks while Shardul Thakur has performed brilliantly sin...

Crackdown On Illegal Travel Agents In Amritsar, Licenses Of 40 Cancelled

Punjab has cancelled the licenses of 40 travel agents amid a huge row over the deportation of Indians who migrated illegally to the US. Licenses of some IELTS centers have also been cancelled and such action will be taken in future as well, sources said. 

Sources said the Amritsar police have taken action on the basis of a complaint against travel agents operating illegally from the city and more action could be expected in the coming days.

The police are continuously registering cases against travel agents who send Indians illegally and raids are being conducted to catch them, sources said. 

The complainant in this case, Sarabjit Singh, said he had given a letter to the Deputy Commissioner Sakshi Sahni.

Government sources earlier said people from Punjab comprise the biggest chunk of the Indians being deported by the US. Three flights arrived on February 5, February 15 and February 16 in which 333 Indians were sent. Of them, the maximum people - 126 or 37.8 per cent - were from Punjab, sources said. 

The clarification came days after Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann's objection to the flights landing in his state. Sources said because of the maximum number of Punjabis among the deportees, 21 flights have been landed in Amritsar since May 2020. 

Instances of illegal immigration from Punjab -- where people eager for a better life are promised visas to travel abroad in exchange for large sums of money but are ultimately routed in on fake visas -- have been reported widely, adding the term "Dunki route" to the lexicon. 

Reports said more than 3,200 police cases have been filed against travel agents in Punjab over the last three years.

There have been multiple arrests in such cases. Among them was Punjabi singer Fatehjit Singh, who ended up in the police net in September last year. The most popular destinations include the US, Canada, UK and Australia.

"I Felt Bad That My First Throw...": Neeraj Opens Up On Asiad Controversy

Neeraj Chopra clinched the gold medal in men's javelin event at Asian Games 2023 with a season-best throw of 88.88m but the win was not without controversies. The very first attempt by the reigning world champion was a massive one and it looked that throw easily breached the 85m-mark. However, the organisers were not able to measure it due to a technical glitch and as a result, Neeraj had to take the throw once again. Following his gold medal win, Neeraj opened up about his feelings regarding the controversial incident and what he felt could have been the reason behind the confusion. ( Asian Games Medals Tally ) "I was puzzled and confused, it has never happened in any competition I have competed in till now.
