A major turn of events has emerged following the arrest of 22-year-old law student and influencer Sharmishta Panoli, who was taken into custody by Kolkata Police from Gurgaon on 30th May. Her only “crime” was openly criticising the Pahalgam terror attack and Pakistan—views that many Indian citizens share. Now, the tables seem to be turning on her accuser.

In the early hours of May 29, 2025, what began as a private, emotional moment between a husband and wife turned into a tragedy that now haunts the Indian diaspora across Australia. 42-year-old Gaurav Kundi, a father of two and an Indian-origin man living in Adelaide, was left critically injured and placed on life support following a violent encounter with South Australian police. The events unfolded on Payneham Road, in the seemingly quiet suburb of Royston Park, where Kundi and his wife Amritpal Kaur had stepped outside their home.

In a disturbing development that exposes the stark bias of the West Bengal administration, a 22-year-old Hindu law student, Sharmishtha, was arrested by Kolkata Police on Friday (30th May) — not for committing any act of violence or inciting terror, but for sharing a video that criticised the terrorist state of Pakistan. The irony? She had already deleted the video and issued an apology. Still, the state’s police department chose to act not as protectors of justice, but as enforcers of Islamist outrage.

On May 29, 2025, what should have been a proud, memorable moment for MIT’s Class of 2025 turned into a stage for controversy. During the prestigious OneMIT undergraduate ceremony, class president Megha Vemuri, wearing a red keffiyeh — a symbol often associated with Palestinian resistance — chose to abandon her pre-approved script. Instead, she gave an unapproved speech, sharply criticizing Israel and accusing it of genocide in Gaza. She also used the opportunity to condemn MIT’s collaboration with the Israeli military, a move that stunned many in the audience and drew instant backlash.

In the fast-paced world of artificial intelligence, where promises of revolutionary technology fuel billion-dollar valuations, the spectacular collapse of Builder.ai serves as a sobering reminder: hype without substance is a recipe for disaster. Once hailed as a unicorn valued at $1.5 billion, backed by heavyweights like Microsoft and the Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), Builder.ai filed for bankruptcy in May 2025, leaving employees, investors, and clients reeling. The company’s downfall, marked by overstated revenues, financial mismanagement, and a misleading AI narrative, is not just the s…

Tensions have once again turned violent between Thailand and Cambodia over a sensitive border region that both countries claim ownership of. The focal point of this heated conflict is the ancient and sacred Preah Vihear Shiva temple, a Hindu architectural wonder that stands tall for over 900 years in Cambodia’s Preah Vihear province. This temple is not just an archaeological site—it is home to a Shiva Lingam, a symbol considered highly auspicious in Hindu tradition. Its presence lends profound cultural and religious value to the land, making it a deeply emotional issue for both nations.
