'Don't bring a husband and three kids': British-Indian politician criticizes Palestinian student for seeking funds to bring family to London

British Indian politician Suella Braverman sparked a controversy after responding to a student’s request to bring her family to the UK to attend university. Braverman posted on X, “You don’t need to bring your husband and three kids to get a degree in media studies. Universities need to stop selling immigration instead of education.Her comments were in response to a fundraising post by Alaa Radwan, who is originally from Palestine and whose family is seeking around £17,000 to cover visa and education costs, including those for her husband and three children, after receiving an unconditional offer to study for a master’s degree in media and communication studies at Goldsmiths, University of London, starting in September 2026, according to her CV.Radwan’s post outlined basic costs such as a visa application fee of £524 per person, an immigration health surcharge of £776 per person and tuition fees, describing the move as a “lifeline for my family”.Braverman was born in Harrow, London, to Indian parents and has long served in the British government. She has previously been involved in discussions to reduce net migration and tighten rules on family visas for overseas students. She also served as former Home Secretary.Social media users have acknowledged that Braverman herself has immigrant roots and brought her parents to the UK. One user said: “This is the same system your parents and whole family exploited. Jumping from one political party to another has obviously fried your brain.”Another said: “Tell us Suella, why did your parents immigrate to the UK in the 60s?”A third added: “Have you ever said to your dad, Dad, you don’t need to take my mum and us away?”

New Delhi: All set for second round Mamata Banerjee Contesting the West Bengal elections with Suvendu Adhikari. West Bengal’s chief minister and the opposition leader in the state assembly are preparing to face off again in next month’s assembly elections, this time in the Babanipur seat. In 2021, Suvendu Adhikari of the BJP won the first round by 1,956 votes defeating Mamata of Nandigram. Mamata’s failure overshadows the overall impressive shine Trinamool Congress defeated the BJP in the assembly elections five years ago. The TMC won 215 seats with a vote share of 48%, while the BJP polled 77 seats with a vote share of 38%.Mamata and Suvendu, who were once close aides of the Trinamool chief, parted ways in 2020. Accusing Mamata of corruption and electoral fraud, Suvendu left the TMC and joined the BJP. They have been bitter enemies ever since.

From Nandigram to Bhabanipur: BJP’s Adhikari takes on Mamata Banerjee in high-stakes showdown

Mamata today announced the list of 291 TMC candidates, gearing up for a tough electoral battle with the BJP in the state. The West Bengal chief minister has expressed confidence that her party will once again gain a comfortable majority. “We will win over 226 seats in the 2026 assembly elections. The vote share of the BJP will go down in this election. Their anti-people policies will get a befitting reply,” Mamata said while announcing the party’s candidate list.The BJP, on the other hand, is confident of winning West Bengal this time and is confident that Suvendu will repeat the feat of 2021 and defeat Mamata again. West Bengal BJP president and MP Samik Bhattacharya said: “Suvendu Adhikari will defeat Nandigram and Bhabanipur by a huge margin. This is not just a matter of the BJP, it reflects the sentiment of the people.”But while Suvendu will try to keep Mamata on tenterhooks in Babanipur, he himself may face a tough situation in Nandigram, where the TMC has fielded a former BJP panchayat chief.Pabitra Kar, who is close to Suvendu Adhikari, rejoined the ruling TMC and contested against the BJP leader in Nandigram just hours before the party announced its candidate.The TMC said in a social media post that Kher was “unhappy with the anti-people stance of the BJP”. Ka, who quit the TMC to join the BJP in November 2020, was instrumental in consolidating the saffron party’s organizational structure in Boyal-1 district and is believed to have been instrumental in ensuring the BJP’s leading position in the district five years ago.In the 2021 assembly elections, Suvendu Adhikari narrowly won in Nandigram by polling 1,10,764 votes, while Mamata polled 1,08,808 votes.This time, however, it will be interesting to see who — Mamata or Suvendu — benefits from the breakdown in the alliance between the Congress and the Left.Mamata targets electoral commission, questions timing of administrative reshuffleMamata launched a blistering attack on the Election Commission, claiming that senior administrative officials and policemen were transferred ahead of the assembly elections at the behest of the BJP.Addressing reporters while announcing the list of Trinamool Congress candidates for the 2026 assembly elections, Banerjee wondered “Why were senior officials transferred before Eid? Is there any plan to trigger unrest ahead of the elections?”The chief minister claimed that the list of transferred officials was prepared by the BJP office and the decision was taken only by the Election Commission.She further claimed that some officials from outside West Bengal were brought in to assist the BJP in the electoral process. The TMC supremo accused the poll panel of acting under political pressure and said the Election Commission “played a good game on behalf of the BJP”.“They should campaign directly for the PPP,” she said.Banerjee also claimed that the transfers were aimed at facilitating the flow of funds and arms to the BJP ahead of the polls.

'Police refused to help': Indian-Sikh restaurant owner Harman Kapoor speaks out amid 'not halal' controversy after release

An Indian-Sikh restaurant owner in west London claims the Metropolitan Police “repeatedly refused” to help his family despite serious threats hours after he was detained and later released hours after a tense confrontation outside his restaurant.Rangrez’s boss Harman Singh Kapoor claimed in a social media post that his “outburst” was due to months of intimidation.He wrote: “Many people are unhappy with my attacks on radicals who continue to make my life a living hell.” He added: “The Metropolitan Police have repeatedly refused to help my family when a group of unruly radicals threatened to kill and rape us.”He also posted a video after his release of supporters gathering outside the restaurant and called his arrest “illegal.”

‘Non-halal’ stance sparks months of tension

At the center of the controversy is Rangrez, a neighborhood Indian restaurant in west London that has been operating for about 16 years and has announced plans to close.Kapoor said the company had been under continued pressure after publicly announcing it would not serve halal meat. A prominent sign outside the restaurant reads: “Proudly, we do not sell halal food.”Kapoor said that, as a Sikh, he prefers to serve jhatka meat, a method of slaughter that requires quick blows and which some Sikhs consider religiously permissible.According to him, the decision sparked months of backlash, including false online comments, threats and repeated confrontations.

Crowds gather and the situation escalates

Tensions came to a head on March 14 when Kapoor promoted a “non-halal party” at a restaurant, asking supporters to attend and document any disturbances.Later in the day, a large crowd gathered outside the restaurant in Hammersmith, with social media posts saying more than 100 people surrounded the restaurant. Videos shared online showed a heated atmosphere, with Kapoor describing the situation as threatening.Fearing for his family’s safety, he said he carried a “kirpan,” a Sikh ceremonial knife, for protection.

arrest and release

Kapoor said he was detained by the Metropolitan Police hours after the crowd began to disperse, allegedly for carrying a religious dagger.Police have not issued a detailed public statement clarifying the circumstances of the arrest or whether any charges will be filed.Kapoor was later released and later posted a video showing supporters gathering outside the restaurant. In another post, he wrote: “I can’t even hold a knife anymore or even eat. I could be arrested by the Metropolitan Police.”What started as a dispute over halal and non-halal food has evolved into a wider cultural and political controversy. Kapoor’s supporters claim he was targeted for exercising his religious beliefs and protecting his business, while critics say the situation has been exacerbated by provocative messages on social media and heightened tensions.

'Sending unqualified players': Malaysia's hopes of qualifying for AFC Asian Cup end in scandal

Malaysia’s hopes of qualifying for the 2027 AFC Asian Cup were dashed after the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) ruled out two matches 3-0 for fielding ineligible players, a decision that confirmed Vietnam’s promotion from Group F.The AFC said the action was taken after Malaysia used ineligible players in the final round of qualifying. “The defendants fielded ineligible players in matches related to the 2027 AFC Asian Cup (qualifier final),” the AFC said in a statement. The Kuala Lumpur-based body also fined the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) US$50,000.After losing the game, Vietnam now leads the group with a six-point advantage, with Malaysia unlikely to catch up. The final group match between Vietnam and Malaysia on March 31 will no longer affect qualifying.“Although this match is no longer decisive for the final group rankings, it is still expected to be a noteworthy match,” the Vietnam Football Association said.The development comes in the wake of a FIFA investigation into Malaysia’s use of foreign-born players. The investigation focuses on the 4-0 victory over Vietnam in June last year and the 2-0 victory over Nepal in March last year. Both results have now been overturned.FIFA found that the players obtained their citizenship through forged documents and did not have Malaysian ancestry or ancestry. According to the governing body, three players are from Argentina, two are from Spain, one is from the Netherlands and one is from Brazil.The players involved are Hector Hever, Jon Elazábal, Gabriel Palmeiro, Facundo Garces, Rodrigo Horgado, Imanol Machuca and João Brando Figueiredo.The FIFA Appeals Committee said in its findings that the offense “undermines the foundations of football’s integrity”. It held both players and FAM accountable, stating that seven players “negligently used and benefited from forged documents” and that FAM’s “inability to establish accountability reflects systemic governance shortcomings and a lack of genuine commitment”.

Rajya Sabha polls: Congress accuses BJP of trying ‘poll chori’ in Haryana, warns cross voters of strict action

Rajya Sabha民意调查:国会指控人民党在哈里亚纳邦尝试“投票chori”,警告交叉选民采取严格行动

Former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda and Karamvir Singh Boudh, who was elected to the Haryana Lok Sabha

New Delhi: congress accusation tuesday bjp There are attempts to “vote for Chauri” and “murder democracy” in the Haryana Union Assembly elections, even as the party claims to take “sternest possible action” against its own MLAs suspected of cross-voting.The onslaught came hours after a high-profile, dramatic Rajya Sabha contest ended just after midnight in Haryana state, with the BJP and Congress winning one seat each after allegations of breach of vote secrecy, invalid ballots and cross-voting disrupted the election.

After tense overnight counting, the BJP and Congress have one seat each

Sanjay Bhatia of the Bharatiya Janata Party and Karamveer Singh Budde of the Congress Party were elected to the Haryana federal assembly.Bhatia, a former Lok Sabha member from Karnal, easily won the first seat with 39 first preference votes. Budde, a retired Haryana government employee and a prominent Dalit activist who currently serves as the National Coordinator of the Scheduled Castes Unit of the Congress, secured the second seat with 28 votes.Independent candidate Satish Nandal polled 16 votes, leaving the race for the second seat narrowly contested after cross-polling diluted what the Congress could have easily counted.According to the Federal House election formula, the quota required to win a seat is 2,767 votes. Both Bhatia and Bude exceeded this standard, leaving no room for further transfer of votes.

Deepender Hooda claims to ‘vote for Chauri’, says BJP is trying to ‘murder democracy’

At a press conference in Delhi, Congress MP Deepender Singh Hooda congratulated the party leadership and praised Budh’s victory but launched a blistering attack on the BJP over the way the polls were being conducted.“In Haryana, under the cover of darkness, the BJP is trying to murder democracy and indulge in poll-based elections,” Hooda said, according to the Press Trust of India.He claimed that the BJP had “no faith in democracy” and only wanted to “seize power” but said MPs and workers were vigilant to ensure the victory of Budde, whom he described as a man who worked for social justice.According to news agency ANI, Hooda said the BJP had adopted “all possible strategies” and “such unethical political behavior would not have been resorted to for just one Lok Sabha seat anywhere in the country before today.”

Congress accuses election officials of bargaining, bias

Hooda claimed that the BJP tried “various tactics”, including encouraging cross-voting and trying to win seats through bargaining.He further claimed that when the move failed, the BJP “launched its B-Team INLD” and claimed that the BJP did not clarify its position until polling day.Hooda claimed that “the INLD evaded the vote when more than 30 votes in Congress had already been cast in favor.”He later accused the BJP of influencing the Election Commission and accused election officials of bias.“The returning officer showed bias and canceled four of our votes, even though they were all valid. This was done after another returning officer had already placed the same votes in a valid tray. This shows that the BJP is obsessed with ‘voting’ in the Lok Sabha elections,” Hooda said.Furthermore, Hooda added, “The four ballots that were invalidated during our count all counted… This is a victory for democracy.”

Congress acknowledges crossover vote, says ‘strictest action’ to come

Even while attacking the BJP, the Congress admitted that some of its MLAs had cross-voted.Hooda said some Congress MLAs from Haryana had cross-voted and warned of action.“Our MLAs who betrayed their conscience and integrity – not just themselves but even their next generation will be held accountable by the people of Haryana. The Congress party will take strictest possible action against these MLAs,” he said.Hooda also said the public would not forgive these MLAs and those who remained loyal to the party despite facing “temptations and pressures” earned more respect from the people.

Five votes were invalid and INLD abstained.

There have been some twists and turns in this election.Two members of the Indian National Congress (INLD) abstained from voting, reducing the number of valid votes in the 90-member Haryana Assembly to 88 when voting began.INLD leaders Abhay Singh Chautala and Aditya Devi Lal said the party decided to abstain “keeping in mind the sentiments of the people”.Five votes were later declared invalid – four by the Congress and one by the BJP, officials said.The poll body declared Congress MP Paramveer Singh’s vote invalid after the Congress and the BJP complained to the Election Commission about breach of voting secrecy.Invalid ballots became a major flashpoint, with congressional accusations of selective targeting and procedural bias.

Budde calls it a victory despite ‘illegal cancellation of votes’

Congress winner Karamvir Singh Boudh also questioned the cancellation of voting after his victory.ANI quoted Budh as saying, “The votes were illegally canceled but I have the blessings of the Congress party and the people. I have the love of the top leadership of the Congress party.”Congress leaders expected his victory to be politically significant, especially after the BJP leaders dismissed him as a “weak candidate”.Hooda said those who called social workers weak received an “appropriate response” and described the outcome as a “constitutional victory”.Congress’ scheduled castes unit chief Rajendra Pal Gautam, who accompanied Hooda to the press conference, said he was “extremely happy” that the party had nominated “a real Ambedkarit” for the Rajya Sabha, the Press Trust of India reported.

Fresh Assembly Flashpoint

The results of the Union House also reached the Haryana Assembly on Tuesday.In another development, MPs went on strike claiming democratic values ​​were being undermined.Congress MP Geeta Bhukkal claimed that the House had become a “marketplace for buying and selling things” and alleged that ministers openly admitted to “buying” MPs.“The Constitution has been strangled and that is why we are resisting,” she was quoted as saying by ANI.

BJP strikes back

The BJP, however, rejected the Congress party’s charges and referred the cross-polling issue back to the opposition.BJP winner Sanjay Bhatia said the Congress party was upset because its lawmakers were not united.“The responsibility of the Congress is to unite its workers and MLAs and now they are making accusations against us because of cross-voting by their own workers, which is not right,” Bhatia said.Haryana minister Mahipal Dhanda also dismissed the Congress party’s allegations, saying independent candidates had every right to seek votes and claiming the Congress party was “holding their workers hostage”.

Congress got away with it

With five Congress MPs allegedly cross-voting, if independent candidate Satish Nandal also gets 11 second-preference votes from BJP candidate Bhatia, and if one more Congress MP cross-votes in his favor, he could tie Budh’s vote tally.The math underscores how close Congress came to losing a seat it was expected to win easily.In the end, the Congress managed to secure one of the two seats despite fierce accusations of cross-voting, invalid votes and haggling, but the result triggered a new internal crisis against dissident MLAs and a new political battle with the BJP over the vote.

A Utah mother convicted of murdering her husband writes a children's book about grief, 'Are You With Me'

Kouri Richins, the author of the self-published children’s book “Are You With Me,” tells the sad story of being found guilty of aggravated murder of her husband, who he poisoned with fentanyl. Kouri Richins published the book a year after her husband, Eric Richins, was killed in March 2022. She spiked his cocktail with five times the lethal dose of fentanyl. The jury deliberated for three hours before announcing the verdict.Richins, a real estate agent who was deeply in debt, wanted to leave her husband but stayed because of his money, prosecutors said. She was planning a future with another man and had a life insurance policy taken out on her behalf without her husband’s knowledge. Prosecutors showed the jury text messages between Richins and Robert Josh Grossman, with whom she allegedly had an affair, in which she fantasized about leaving her husband, getting millions of dollars in a divorce and marrying Grossman.

Luxury prisons for the rich in America: What the rich search on Google

Richins’ search history included “what is the lethal dose of fentanyl, luxury prisons for wealthy Americans and what is written on the death certificate if someone is poisoned.”After poisoning her husband, she called 911, which prosecutors said was not “the sound of a widowed wife.” “This is the sound of a wife turning into a black widow,” they said. Before his arrest in May 2023, Richins self-published a children’s book about coping with the loss of a parent. During the case, the lead investigator revealed that she actually paid a ghostwriting company to write the book for her. The book, which says it aims to create peace and comfort for bereaved children, tells the story of a young boy who questions whether his father is there for him during special moments like birthdays, Christmas and the first day of school.
