"Bauna Bhi To Hai": Bumrah, Pant's Chat On Bavuma's LBW Is Viral. Watch

India pacer Jasprit Bumrah emerged as the team's chief orchestrator with the ball on Day 1 of the first Test against South Africa at Eden Gardens on Friday. After removing opening batters Aiden Markram and Ryan Rickleton, Bumrah thought he had trapped South Africa skipper Temba Bavuma in front of the stumps. However, the on-field umpire refused to rule the decision in the fielding side's favour. This prompted a discussion between Bumrah, the wicket-keeper and a few other players. The chat, however, went viral for the wrong reason. During the chatter between Bumrah and Pant, one of the two seemed to have referred to Bavuma as a 'bauna' (short or dwarf). The video drew plenty of attention on social media since being shared. The ball struck Bavuma on the pads, prompting a loud appeal, but the umpire turned it down. Bumrah thought the matter was close, hence, he contemplated making use of a referral and consulted the same with Pant. Bumrah seemed to be in favour of usi...

Congress Office In Turkey? Party Sues Amit Malviya, Journalist For Defamation

The Congress has filed a police case against the BJP's Amit Malviya and Editor-in-Chief of Republic, Arnab Goswami. They have been accused of spreading malicious disinformation about the Congress having an office in Turkey. In their post, they also mentioned defamation of "the constitutional office of the Leader of Opposition" Rahul Gandhi. . 

The Congress Legal Cell said it was a "malicious attempt" to malign the party, "provoke unrest, undermine national security" and a direct attack on democracy. "We will not stay silent," it added in a post on X, formerly Twitter. "Let this be a clear message: Any attempt to spread fake news against our party or its leadership will be met with firm legal and political response," it added. 

In its complaint, the Congress said Mr Malviya and Mr Goswami had started circulating a fake claim that the Istanbul Congress Center in Turkey is the office of the Indian National Congress.

"This act was executed with clear and undeniable criminal intent to deceive the Indian public, defame a major political institution, manipulate nationalist sentiments, incite public unrest, and undermine national security and democratic integrity".

They have been accused of "masterminding a heinous and criminally motivated campaign to disseminate patently false information".
 
The public mood in the country has been strongly against Turkey since its support to Pakistan during the Operation Sindoor. 

There has been a massive backlash with bookings for Turkey being cancelled, universities cancelling programmes with their Turkish counterparts and Turkish firms being given marching orders.

"This orchestrated campaign is not a mere ethical lapse but a deliberate criminal conspiracy, executed with premeditation to cause public harm, destabilize the nation, and advance partisan agendas. The accused have abused their positions of influence-Mr. Malviya as a key political strategist and Mr. Goswami as a prominent media figure-to perpetrate a grave assault on truth, public safety, and national interest," read the First Information Report filed in the matter.

US Reopens Lake Michigan Airspace After Closure Over "National Defense"

US officials restricted the airspace over Lake Michigan on Sunday citing a potential new threat to national security but soon reopened the skies, as the United States and Canada respond to multiple air intrusions. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced "temporary flight restrictions" over one of the Great Lakes along the US-Canada border, designating it as "national defense airspace," one day after a similar closure over Montana led to the scrambling of US fighter jets. The Montana closure was ordered over a "radar anomaly," but no object was discovered. Similarly, the Lake Michigan restrictions were lifted shortly after they were announced, apparently with no threat detected. "The FAA briefly closed some airspace over Lake Michigan to support Department of Defense activities. The airspace has been reopened," the agency said in a statement to AFP. Sunday's action over Lake Michigan marked the latest move to address a series ...
