Shashi Kumar Tiwari – Mumbai Uncensored, 26th February 2022

Today the world is talking about Russia and Ukraine. Three years back on this very day, it talked about India and Pakistan. 

Today marks the 3rd Anniversary of the Balakot Airstrikes done by the Indian Air Force on the 26th of February in the year 2019. The strikes were carried out to avenge the dastardly attack by the terrorist organisation Jaish -E -Mohammad on a CRPF convoy that had resulted in 40 CRPF soldiers being K.I.A and attaining Veergati.

The Indian Air Force Mirage-2000 had bombed the JeM terrorist training camps in Balakot, PoK with  Spice 2000 locked smart bombs. In reply to this, the Pakistani Air Force had sent in 24 Lockheed Martin F-16 Fighter Aircrafts to bomb the Indian Military installations and garrisons. Responding swiftly to this 2 IAF Su-30MKI, 2 Mirage -2000 and 8 Mig-21 Bison took off from the Avantipora IAF Base to chase the PAF Jets away. 

While still in the aerial chase a Mig 21 Bison Fighter Aircraft of the IAF was hit by the PAF F-16 during a dogfight between both the aircraft. In a while, the whole of India knew the pilot. The Mig 21 Bison was flown by none other than our war hero- Abhinandan Varthaman. 

He however continued the dogfight and shot down the Pakistani F-16 aircraft. After this duel, Wg Cdr Abhinandan’s aircraft crashed and he ejected safely out of it while para landing in the Village Horra of Pakistan Occupied Kashmir. 

As soon as he was seen by an old PoK Villager, he asked the name of that place to which the villager responded by saying, “India”. Wg.Cdr. Abhinandan shouted out loud “JAI HIND” to which the villagers shouted back with pro-Pakistani Slogans. Wg Cdr Abhinandan dropped his pistol seeing the mob approaching him violently. He was later arrested by the Pakistani Army and several videos of him were released by the Pakistani Defence Handles, only to be taken down later on as it violated the Geneva Convention. 

But no country could’ve been able to hold back an Indian officer of such valour. Wg Cdr Abhinandan was repatriated back to India on the 1st of March,2019 safely and respectfully after strong diplomatic pressure and indirect stern military action threat to Pakistan, from India. 

Let’s look at the early life of Wg Cdr Abhinandan Varthaman:

Abhinandan was born to  Rtd. Air Marshal Simhakutty Varthaman and Shobha Varthaman, a doctor. He belongs to the state of Tamil Nadu, India. He did his schooling at Sainik School Amravathinagar. 

He went on to join the 104th Course of NDA and passed out in 2003. He finally completed the 173rd Course from AFA, Dundigul and was commissioned as a Flying Officer in the Indian Air Force on 19th June 2004. 

Earlier assigned in the SU -30Mki squadron he was later assigned to carry out flying operations with the Mig -21 Bison Fighter Aircraft. 

Receiving India’s 3rd highest gallantry award:

The officer displayed conspicuous gallantry and absolute professionalism living up to the credo of the Indian Armed Forces by not letting out any vital information to the Pakistani Intelligence and Army Officials while undergoing the interrogation during his detention in Pakistan.

He had even chewed and gulped down the important IAF documents and maps he was carrying post-crash landing in PoK. He had faced the manhandling and the interrogation in the bravest possible manner. Wg Cdr Abhinandan Varthaman was Awarded the Vir Chakra , India’s 3rd Highest Wartime Gallantry honour for his gallant actions and flying finesse in the line of duty, the way he had shot down a 4th Generation US-made F-16 with a 2nd Generation Mig 21 Bison was in itself astonishing and spoke for his gallant fighter flying. His flamboyance and patriotism were evident even though he was being interrogated in the territory of India’s biggest arch-rival, Pakistan.

He got promoted to the rank of Group Captain in Nov 2021 after completing 17 years of service in the Indian Air Force.

Six people burned 1 d

A dangerous situation unfolded in Bhayandar on Wednesday when police officers were met with violent resistance while attempting to evict a family from their rented flat. The Choubey family, who had been accused of refusing to vacate the premises despite the lease expiring in September 2023, escalated the situation to a shocking level.

When police arrived at the Geeta Nagar residential complex to conduct a panchnama, the family initially resorted to intimidation tactics, hurling utensils at the officers. However, the confrontation took a more sinister turn when they threw boiling water at the police, causing severe burn injuries to four constables, one officer, and a panch.

Reinforcements were immediately dispatched to the scene, leading to the arrest of three members of the Choubey family – the parents and their 26-year-old son. Their daughter remains at large.

The incident has raised serious concerns about the safety of law enforcement officials while carrying out their duties. Investigations are ongoing to determine the exact circumstances surrounding the incident and to apprehend the remaining suspect.

This shocking event underscores the potential dangers faced by law enforcement personnel when dealing with volatile situations.

On Monday, 30th May, a 43 year old businessman Amar Manish Zariwala along with his driver Shyam Sundar Kamat were traveling on Bandra Worli Sea link  in their car on their way to Malad unless the tragedy occured. They stopped their car in the midst as the kite fell on the road due to the collision with the automobile. To take the glance and save the bird, both came out of the car. But within a span of 30 seconds they were immediately hit by the taxi.

The intensity of the accident was so major that both of them soared in the air and fell on the road with flat backs. Both of them were rushed into the Lilavati Hospital as per whose report Amar was declared dead ( on the spot ) whereas Shyam Sundar undergoing treatment was pronounced dead after a few days.Due to the presence of CCTV in the Bridge, the CCTV footage has sparked on the internet. 

The accused driver has been identified as Ravindra Kumar Jaiswar (38) and has been booked for rash and reckless driving. The accident occured at Pole Number 76 of the sea link and the police arrived soon after the accident. It is worth noting that the driver is not encouraged to stop on the sea link, the speed limit to be maintained should be at most 80 km/ hr. And in case if from the sight of the driver, any inappropriate scenario is happening within the 100 m distance, He / She needs to control the vehicle. In the case of Amar Zariwala, it is evident that the driver had ample time to be aware of avoiding the collision. Thus, the Police have chargesheet the driver.

SUMAN GUPTA – Mumbai Uncensored, 25th April 2022

A new controversy has flooded the air with the infamous influencer Sahara Ray being in the crib of it. It all started when the clothing brand named“SAHARA RAY SWIM”, launched its new collection named the ‘Aura Collection 2022’. The collection consisted mostly of thongs, micro string tops and swimwears, that  featured images of Hindu deities on top of them. 

The clothing brand printed the images of Indian deities on the swimwears that affected the religious sentiments of the people.

Soon after the release of this collection, the images of the clothes went viral all over the media and faced huge backlash from the people. People have expressed their disgust over different social platforms. Social media users reprimanded the clothing company.

In a tweet, the Hindu IT Cell informed, “We have taken cognisance of this matter. It’s an absolutely derogatory and defamatory act against Hindu ideals. We are not going to tolerate this and our team will legally proceed in this matter.”

Popular Twitter user, Madhur Singh, informed that the Instagram handle of ‘Sahara Ray Swim’ first blocked users who questioned the objectionable swimwear collection. “Later they turned the comments off and posted yet another set of photos of the same lingerie.

After this controversy started on Twitter, this swimwear maker Sahara Ray Swim has made its account private on Instagram. It is believed that the company has taken this step to avoid getting caught in controversy on this platform. Social media users are demanding the company to take back this swimwear and apologize for the act. However, there has been no response from the company on this yet.

Such incidents have been happening before

This is not the first case of such targeting of Hindu deities. Earlier items like bathroom mats, door mats, shoes, slippers with pictures of deities have also come to the fore. There has been a lot of controversy about such items on social media and other forums, but even after this some companies are not ready to take a lesson from it.
