    When Indian actors have some nasty run-ins with the law, news outlets, as well as the common public, have a field day, thanks to the voyeuristic sensibilities that we have developed. Obviously, when it comes to Indian singers and musicians, the fervour among audiences is not different at all.

    Β© Viral Bhayani
    For some reason, most of us think that musicians and singers lead a larger and wilder lifestyle, and have come to expect them to be involved in all kinds of stuff, from hard drugs to an insane drinking habit. More often than not, this might not be the case. However, when we see them get embroiled in a legal battle, we often assume that the people in question live a wild life.

    Here are a few singers and musicians that have been embroiled in some or the other legal battle over the years, which their fans want to forget.

    1. Daler Mehndi - Human Trafficking Β© Wiki Commons
    Daler Mehendi was actually convicted in a case back from 2003, which accused him of being involved in a human trafficking ring. He was sentenced to two years in prison, but was later granted bail by a district courtΒ in Patiala. Apparently, the singer, along with a couple of his brothers would charge up to a crore to take people abroad as a part of their touring troupe and drop them off in USA.

    2. Honey Singh - Obscenity & Outraging The Modesty Of Women Β© Twitter/asliyoyo
    It shouldn’t come as a surprise, but Honey Singh, like a number of Punjabi Rappers, has been accused of obscene lyrics, and outraging the modesty of women, a number of times now. Several police complaints have been filed against the rapper, a number of times. However, things got a little serious for the rapper when an infamous song by the name of Volume 2, whch glorified sexual misconduct and rape, were attributed to him. Honey Singh & his camp have maintained that they did not have anything to do with the song.

    3. Badshah - Outraging The Modesty Of Women & Insulting Religious Sentiments Β© Twitter/its_badshah
    Badshah’s Genda Phool has caused him more pain than any other song perhaps. First of all there was the bruhaha over cultural appropriation and issues with credits to the original singer, Ratan Kahar. Once that thing was settled, a West Bengal NGO filed a formal complaint, stating that Badshah offended Bengali sentiments by showing Bengali Women in a vulgar manner. The complaint also stated that it hurt religious sentiments by showing the Goddess Durga in a vulgar manner. The complaint eventually led to an FIR.

    4. Mika Singh - Sexual Misconduct & Outraging The Modesty Of Women Β© Viral Bhayani
    Mika Singh just had to make it to this list. Although he has been embroiled in a number of cases over the years, including possession of illegal currency and alcohol, the two main legal cases of his that are well known for is one involving Rakhi Sawant, and one involving a 17-year-old Brazillian model, for which he was arrested in Dubai. Apparently, he sent some unsolicited nude photos to the minor, and behaved inappropriately, after promising the model a role in a Bollywood film.

    5. Aditya Narayan - Rash Driving & Endangering The Lives Of Others Β© Sony Entertainment
    Aditya Narayan too has been embroiled in a number of controversies. A few years back, he was seen in a video verbally abusing and getting into a physical altercation with the ground staff of a reputed airline. Soon after that, he was arrested for crashing into an auto and seriously injuring the driver, and a passenger. Although not much details of the case are available in public forums, several reports claimed, that at the time of the accident, Narayan was under the influence, and was intoxicated behind the wheels.

    6. Papon - Sexual Misconduct With A Minor Β© Wiki Commons
    While judging a reality singing contest, Papon allegedly kissed and inappropriately touched a minor girl. Papon was mentoring the girl in the show. Apparently, the incident took place when they were shooting a celebration sequence for Holi. Papon was charged under POSCO or the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act of 2012, and is under trial.

    7. Ankit Tiwari - Sexual Misconduct & Rape Β© Twitter/ATFans
    Ankit Tiwari made headlines in 2014 when he and his brother were accused of raping a 28-year-old woman. In 2017, the court acquitted the singer and his brother, after the woman changed her statement was deemed hostile. However, after the hearings, she gave a number of interviews, where she claimed that she was forced to change her statement. The most recent development of the case is that it was being considered to be reinvestigated, once the case is reopened.

    8. Sidhu Moosewaala - Violations Of The Arms Act Β© Twitter/sidhumoosewala
    A Punjabi singer who has been rising among the ranks of the most popular Punjabi singers, Sidhu Moosewaala, is also currently under investigation, after a video clip showing him shoot an AK-47 at a firing range went viral. Common citizens are not allowed at any firing ranges, and neither are they allowed to own and possess automatic firearms.Β

    Hrithik Roshan is known as the β€˜Greek God’ of the industry and he is also a heartthrob of Bollywood. He has given us some amazing films likeΒ Super 30 & WarΒ recently but in the past, he has done blunders just like any other Bollywood actor.
    He is one actor who has surprised us by keeping a well-toned body throughout his journey in Bollywood. Also, his fitness regime has often motivated his fans to become better and make a better physique.
    He gave his Bollywood debut with Amisha Patel inΒ Kaho Na Pyaar HaiΒ and the movie turned out to be a hit. The film left the audience impressed but then, he gave some flops that were total disasters and made the audience think twice before watching his films.Β 
    Mohenjo Daro
    The film starred Hrithik Roshan and Pooja Hegde in the lead role. The story of the film revolves around a farmer who travels the city of Mohenjo Daro and grows to fall in love with a rich woman. The film was declared a flop as it didn’t make much money at the box-office and also couldn’t impress the audience.Β Β 
    KitesΒ 
    The film starred Barbara Mori and Hrithik Roshan in the lead roles. The storyline of the film revolved around a dance teacher who marries an immigrant woman so that they could get a green card. But, when they meet again, they fall in love with each other.
    The film disappointed the audience and apart from the songs of the film audience didn’t find anything worthwhile.Β 
    Mai Prem Ki Diwani HunΒ 
    The Kareena Kapoor and Hrithik Roshan starrer film are still talked about and made fun of as both the actors overacted in the film. The film’s story wasn’t that bad but the movie turned out to be a cringe-fest due to Kareena Kapoor and Hrithik Roshan’s overacting in it.Β Β 
    Mujhse Dosti KarogeΒ 
    The movie stars Hrithik Roshan, Kareena Kapoor and Rani Mukherji in the lead role. The film’s plot revolves around a bizarre storyline of how Raj falls in love with Tina after she writes him emails every day after he has moved overseas with his family. However, he is unaware that Pooja is the one writing the emails to him on Tina's behalf.
    The film couldn’t do numbers at the box-office and tanked badly.Β Β 
    Aap Mujhe Achche Lagne LageΒ 
    This film starred Hrithik Roshan and Amisha Patel in the lead roles. The film did not impress the audience at all and flopped at the box-office. The film revolves around the story of a girl who desires nothing more than love in life and wants to get married to Rohit (Hrithik Roshan) but her family doesn’t agree and created problems for them. Her father wants her to get married to a family friend’s son and would stop for nothing.

    The news around the much-loved reality show Bigg Boss, hosted by Salman Khan every year, is doing the rounds on social media. The 14th season is being highly-anticipated by the fans from across the place. Despite the COVID-19 scare, makers of the hit reality show are prepping for the upcoming season.Β 
    While there are no news reports around the confirmed list of BB 14 contestants, a tentative list has been doing the rounds on social media of late, piquing viewers’ interest. Names of several well-known faces like Jasmin Bhasin, Nia Sharma, Akanksha Sharma among others have been speculated. Although most of them have kept silent about their participation, some have come out to clarify about them 'NOT' being a part of Salman Khan's popular show. Here we have listed out actors who said 'no' to Bigg Boss 14. From Surbhi Jyoti, Tejasswi Prakash to Rajeev Sen, here is a list of seven popular celebrities who denied taking part in Salman Khan’s Bigg Boss 14:Β 
    1.Β Surbhi Jyoti#staregame pic.twitter.com/aHsKVJzMSi
    β€” Surbhi Jyoti (@SurbhiJtweets) July 23, 2020
    Surbhi Jyoti shot to fame with Qubool Hai and she has been getting calls from Bigg Boss makers for few years. And this year too, the Naagin 3 actor was approached for Bigg Boss 14. However, like every year, she said no to the reality show, and rejected the offer. The producers of the controversial show have been dedicatedly persuading Surbhi to be a part of Bigg Boss but she has time and again declined the proposal.Β Β 
    2.Β Chahat Khanna Β© Bollyscious Twitter
    Chahatt Khanna, who became immensely popular with Bade Acche Lagte Hain, was also approached for the upcoming season of Bigg Boss. As per the report, the makers tried getting Chahatt on-board for the sixth time in a row, but she has turned down the offer for this season too. Confirming the news to Pinkvilla, the actress said that she was approached for the 14th season as well, but she doesn't think she is made for shows like these.

    3.Β Tejasswi Prakash Β© soniasinha30 Twitter
    Tejasswi Prakash, who became a household name after her show Swaragini, was also approached for the much-anticipated Bigg Boss 14. She recently opened up about the offer and revealed that she has turned it down.Β  In a chat with TOI, Tejasswi stated that she is in a mood to do fiction shows at the moment. She said that she has been offered Bigg Boss quite a few times. About participating in Bigg Boss last year, she said she is not keen, as she wants to do what she entered the field to do, which is acting. Teju, as she is fondly called, was last seen in the reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi 10 and she quit the show mid-way due to her eye-injury.Β 

    4.Β Adhyayan SumanActor Shekhar Suman's son Adhyayan Suman was also rumoured to be a part of Bigg Boss 14. However, as soon as reports of him participating in the reality show started doing the rounds, he took to his Twitter handle to rubbish the news and clarify his stance on this. He tweeted, β€œFalse news of me being a part of Bigg boss. Thanks but no thanks. Disrespectful to say the least.”
    False news of me being a part of big boss ! Thanks but no thanks ! Disrespectful to say the least ! #BigBoss @ColorsTV please clarify this! Regards

    In a second tweet, he stated, β€œEven if it was the end of the world I Would never go there don’t worry! That’s not my career goal.”
    5.Β Shubhangi AtreΒ  Β© DMmovies Twitter
    Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain actor Shubhangi Atre also confirmed to Pinkvilla that she had been offered Bigg Boss 14, however, she couldn't say yes as she is already busy with her sitcom. She said, β€œYes, I have got a call but I'm not available for it as of now. I'm already committed to Bhabiji, and I cannot ditch my producers and channel at any cost. Secondly, I cannot fight and abuse at least, for now, I am not prepared for such a show.”

    6.Β Rajeev SenHere in the list is Sushmita Sen's brother Rajeev Sen, who was also approached for the controversial show amid rumours of his tiff with wife Charu Asopa. Rajeev, in a chat with TOI, denied the news and called them rumours. He said, β€œI was approached last year and these are all rumours.” He also squashed all such reports and took to his Instagram story to put the news to rest for once and all. He wrote, β€œNot in Bigg Boss 14 Loud and Clear Shukriya.”
    7.Β Kuldeep SinghFinally in the list is television actor Kuldeep Singh, who is known for his role in the show Vighnaharta Ganesh. He was also approached for Bigg Boss 14. However, he too declined the offer as he did not want to do such controversial shows and put his career to risk. In a chat with TOI, Kuldeep said, β€œI don't want to do such shows now. I want to explore acting and want to do something iconic as an actor. Doing such a reality show, at this juncture may risk my acting career. Also, I don’t want to be presented as a victim in the show. I know the situation created inside the house is very difficult to handle. Moreover, Bigg Boss fans keep bullying you outside if they don’t like you. I’m very much a private person, and I want to be known as an actor rather than my personal flaws.”
    How excited are you to watch Salman Khan’s Bigg Boss 14?

    Last month, the Indian government decided to ban the use of 59 Chinese apps in India, which included some of the popular apps like TikTok.Β 
    Now, the government has banned 47 more Chinese apps in India, and this time, we're looking at the apps that were acting as clones to the ones that were banned previously.
    This news comes hot on the heels of the reports about PUBG Mobile and other Chinese apps getting banned in the country. While we don't have an official confirmation on that, we do know that these 47 clones have been banned.Β 
    #Breaking 1st on TIMES NOW | Indian Govt bans 47 more Chinese apps which are reportedly, clones of the 59 applications which were earlier banned.

    Following the government's order to ban 59 Chinese apps on June 29, they've repeatedly warned the makers of the banned Chinese apps to strictly comply with the ban. The government said that those violating the order would face serious action.
    And now, we're looking at 47 more apps. It goes to show how seriously the government is tracking down these apps.Β 
    People are calling it the government's 'second digital strike on China'. As of now, we don't have a confirmed list of apps banned this time. But as mentioned earlier, it includes the clones of Chinese apps that were banned previously.

    In case you didn't know, the government is banning Chinese apps citing privacy reasons. The government said they've received numerous complaints against the Chinese apps about how they're "stealing and surreptitiously transmitting users' data in an unauthorized manner to servers which have locations outside India".

    "The compilation of these data, its mining and profiling by elements hostile to national security and defence of India, which ultimately impinges upon the sovereignty and integrity of India, is a matter of very deep and immediate concern which requires emergency measures," the ministry said.
    We're not sure if the government is tracking down more apps, but we won't be surprised to see more Chinese apps getting banned in India.

    Sushant Singh Rajput’s sister, Shweta Singh Kriti is in pain and she is trying to share her grief with all his fans through his memories. After the tragic demise of Sushant, we saw how fans are affected and are asking for justice to be served to the man they adored and admired.Β

    People who haven’t met the star personally are in deep pain so you can’t really gauge the pain of his family members, friends, and the ones he met. When you lose a loved one from your family, it’s hard to even come to terms with the loss. Shweta has poured her heart out and also shared her conversation with him from the 10th of June, just four days from his demise.Β 
    View this post on InstagramPart 1: I am experiencing bouts of pain. Right when I think I am coping with it better, some or the other incidence rushes right back into my memory and breaks me apart. One such memory I am sharing with you all... because it is said that the more you share your grief, the less it hurts. I have always been told by my family members that Mom and Dad wanted a son, more so because Mumma’s first child was a son and she had lost him at the tender age of one and half. I never got to meet my first sibling. But mom and dad were very hopeful for a second son.... they made a sankalp (mannat) and started praying to Maa Bhagwati for straight 2 years. They fasted, they meditated, they did puja, hawan and went to spiritual places and met spiritual people. But then I was born, on a Diwali day.... Mumma considered me very lucky and often called me Lakshmi Ji. They continued with their Sadhna, and a year later my little brother was born. Right from the beginning he was a charmer, he mesmerized everyone with his beautiful smile and twinkling eyes. So, this little one was my β€œPithiya”. This is a term used in colloquial Hindi to signify the one who comes right after you. Mumma believed that I was the cause of his much-desired arrival into our lives and I accepted the honor whole heartedly. I was very protective about my little brother because I felt I was responsible for bringing him to this earthly plane. We were always time together, We played, danced, studied, did all sorts of mischiefs, ate, slept, did everything together so much so that people forgot we were 2 separate individuals, they even called us β€œGudia-Gulshan” as if we were a single entity (Bhai’s nick was Gulshan and mine Gudia) And when we started going to school, we had to go to different classes. Bhai’s Nursery and my prep classes were in same building so we managed our 1st year of school pretty well. But then my UKG class was in a different building and his prep classroom remained in the same building, so we got separated. One day after lunch break was over I saw Bhai in my classroom, in my building. We were just 4/5 year olds then. #BhaikikahaniBehankizabani #Downthememorylane #LuvuBhaiA post shared by (@shwetasinghkirti)
    The chat shows Sushant telling Shweta, β€˜Bohat mann karta he di (I really feel like...)’ and to which she responded, β€˜To aa jao na Baby...come for a month. Just chill here. Achha lagega tumhe...I won’t tell my friends that ur here...so koi botheration and milna jhulna bhi nahi karna hoga’. She wanted him to come to the US to spend time there and go for long walks and enjoy hiking.
    She went down the memory lane and shared how her parents prayed for Sushant’s birth as they lost one son and wanted one more son. She wrote, β€œI am experiencing bouts of pain. Right when I think I am coping with it better, some or the other incidence rushes right back into my memory and breaks me apart. One such memory I am sharing with you all... because it is said that the more you share your grief, the less it hurts.”
    She added, β€œI have always been told by my family members that Mom and Dad wanted a son, more so because Mumma’s first child was a son and she had lost him at the tender age of one and a half.

Right from the beginning, he was a charmer, he mesmerized everyone with his beautiful smile and twinkling eyes.”
    She went to share how protective she was of her younger brother Sushant and felt responsible for his safety. She also shared a memory from the past albums when the two used to go to school together.Β 
    View this post on InstagramPart 2: I was completely shocked and as well as happy to see him and asked him how he got there, because his building was at-least half a kilometer away. He told me that he was feeling alone and anxious and wanted to be with me. I pondered for while thinking how adventurous and courageous he was to escape his building with a watchman and then walking half a kilometer and entering my building right under a watchman’s nose and finally finding my class and me. I found his explanation of running away from his building pretty viable as I knew that feeling, When I was dropped off at the school for the first time, I kept crying and asking Dad not to leave me, β€œPlease don’t leave me here alone” that feeling... initial anxiety to be separated from family members and be somewhere where you don’t know anybody. And as a 5 year old protective big sister, I assured him that he can be with me. First, I tried to hide him in between me and my friend, but somehow my class-teacher noticed him while taking attendance. I was myself a little scared, but to protect my little brother, I stood up and told her that he is not feeling well and asked if he could stay with us until dismissal. To my amazement, the teacher agreed and we were so happy, but little after 2 periods as the social norm will have it, he was sent back to his building but by that time we have had so much fun that all of his anxiety were gone. Fast forward in 2007, I remember the day when I got married and as I was leaving, Bhai hugged me tight and we cried a lot. Physically we won’t stay together anymore, we won’t get to see each other that often anymore as I was moving to USA. Both of us got too busy with our lives. Bhai got into Bollywood and kept making us all proud with his accomplishments but I remained protective about him. I would often ask him to come and visit me in the US so that we can relive our childhood once again away from all the noise. I only wish I could have protected him from everything....I still wish I will wake up to see my Bhai... just right next to me and will realize this whole episode was just a nightmare and nothing more. #BhaikikahaniBehankizabani #Downthememorylane #LuvuBhaiA post shared by (@shwetasinghkirti)

    While reading her note, we had goosebumps and can’t even gauge the pain she is in after losing the brother who came into the world as the result of a lot of prayers to the almighty.
    Sushant, you the brightest star, rest in peace, and keep guiding your family, friends, and fans to cope up with the loss.

    Following the ban on 59 apps, India has now shortlisted 275 other Chinese apps that include PUBG Mobile, Resso, Ali Express and others that are underway scrutiny for any violation of national security and user privacy.
    The news comes from our sister website Economic Times who cited sources that are aware of the developments.Β

    The move comes after the Indian Government banned 59 apps, including TikTok, citing national security reasons and privacy issues. We also came across instances where PUBG Mobile was found censoring content on the popular game that was not favourable to the Chinese Government.Β 

    The list has been reviewed by ET and includes other applications like Zili by Xiaomi, Ulike from Tik-Tok owner BytDance and other applications that are of Chinese origin. β€œSome of these apps have been red-flagged due to security reasons while others have been listed for violation of data sharing and privacy concerns,” an official said in a statement to ET.
    It is also worthy to point out, amongst the apps in the list, 14 of them belong to phone maker Xiaomi and other apps from companies like Tencent, Netease, Yozoo Global and others are also on the list undergoing scrutiny.Β 
    According to ET, a senior government official has said the government is looking to make such bans official by framing a new law or circular or a type of regulation for scrutinising apps operating in the country. β€œA set of rules or defined procedures may take time but is the correct process to go about it in the future,” the official said.

    As TikTok was banned in the country, Zili and Snack Video; both owned by Chinese companies, garnered new users and reached Play Store’s top 10 list as it was considered a replacement for the popular short video social media app.Β 

    PUBG Mobile’s ban in India would be a huge move as India is the game's current largest market with about 175 million installs in the country to date.Β 
    The game took over the country by storm as a free Battle-Royale game which pits gamers against each other in a map until the last player remains. The mobile version of the Battle Royale game has been developed, marketed, distributed and operated by Chinese company Tencent, which is currently the world’s largest video game company in the world.Β 
    The game has been previously banned in India in certain regions due to its highly addictive gameplay and concept.Β

    Paul Michael Levesque aka Triple H is known for boasting one of the most imposing bodies in the world of pro-wrestling.Β 
    β€˜The Game’ has maintained phenomenal muscle mass over the decades and is surprisingly agile and athletic in movement, despite the large frame.Β 
    Β© WWE
    This only adds credit to his work ethic and the serious effort that he puts in keeping himself healthy, as he is one of the fittest WWE superstars even in his early 50s.Β 

    Having said that, Triple H is only human after all and considering the fact that it is extremely difficult to maintain the physique, it's no surprise that his body hasn’t always been this way.Β 
    Triple H’s Bodybuilding Career Before Pro-Wrestling: Β© India Times
    Ever since Levesque was a small kid, he was mainly focused on two things, one was pro-wrestling and the other was bodybuilding. He watched his first match at the age of five and was immediately hooked.

    Paul wanted to look like his idols that he usually watched on screen and so, he decided to take up bodybuilding at the age of 14 while also playing basketball and baseball during his school days.
    While his dedication to the craft was limitless and it also won him the 1988 Mr Teenage New Hampshire competition at the age of 19, his physique - the most important aspect of a bodybuilder’s career, wasn’t as aesthetically pleasing as it is now.
    In his fitness book Making The Game Triple H has talked about how he weighed around 60 kgs during his initial days as a bodybuilder and his physique looked like he tried gaining a lot of weight quickly in order to bulk up and then cut down for heavy density muscle mass.Β

    β€” 2004’ John Cena (@YouuCantSeeMee) April 3, 2017
    With an extremely strict diet regime and relentless weight training, even though Triple H successfully maintained an impressive physique through the prime years of his pro-wrestling career, a sudden slump in his body was seen in his latter days when he’d acquired the job of a WWE executive and wrestled part-time.Β 
    Although there wasn’t a lack of effort on The Game’s part, it was just his body that refused to go through the intense compound exercises and a daily basis. His joints started to ache with his knees and a torn bicep being the biggest causes of worry.
    Having an aesthetic body wasn’t the primary objective anymore and he knew that it was time for him to switch things up. That’s when he got in touch with Joe DeFranco and took up a most athletic approach towards fitness.Β 
    Triple H’s Strong Comeback At 47: View this post on Instagramβ€ͺThe injury: a torn pectoral muscle.‬ β€ͺThe date: November 2, 2018‬ β€ͺThe return: April 7, 2019‬ β€ͺ5 months, 5 days.‬ β€ͺThanks to @dugasmd1, @andrews_sports_medicine, @wilk_kevin, @DeFrancosGym, and @durlancastro for getting me ready for #WrestleMania.‬A post shared by (@tripleh)
    With a loose and flabby torso, Triple H started training with DeFranco and made some significant changes in his diet and workout routine. He added exercises like vertical jumps to platforms and HIIT training for better agility, lateral quickness and a higher basal metabolic rate.Β 
    He also took up boxing essentially for warming up ahead of some serious functional training. He also suggests that boxing is a lot more entertaining and engaging than simply running for 10-20 minutes on a machine, so that’s working in his favour.Β

    Finally, arguably the most important aspect of getting an impressive physique - the diet. With time, Triple H has developed a liking for Keto which requires you to get most of your calories from protein and fat and less from carbohydrates.

    However, his nutritionist Dave Palumbo makes him put a lot of carbs in his body a few weeks ahead of a big event such as the WrestleMania in order to make his body look well-defined and β€˜hulky’.

    Triple H is a great example of following one’s passion. He knew from a very early age what he wanted to do for the rest of his life and he did everything to the best of his abilities to get there.Β 
    He is not only a WWE Hall of Fame but also a successful businessman and one of the most humble and compassionate people you could come across and that’s what makes him such an inspiration.Β

    An Indian court has asked Alibaba Group founder Jack Ma to appear after a former employee came forwards claiming to have been wrongfully fired.Β 
    The employee was fired by the company as he objected to censorship and fake news content on apps owned by the Alibaba Group, as seen by Reuters.

    The app has already been banned by Indian security agencies such as UC News, UC Browser amongst 57 other appsΒ citing national security reasons, after the clash in June between the countries. India has also asked the affected apps for answers that include questions whether their apps have been censoring content or acted for any foreign government.Β 

    Pushpendra Singh Parmar, who worked as an associate director at the UC Web office until October 2017, alleges UC Web was censoring content in India that deemed unfavourable to China and its Government. He also alleges other apps such as UC Browser were also censoring content and at times, featured false news "to cause social and political turmoil”.

    UC India said in a statement to Reuters, "unwavering in its commitment to the India market and the welfare of its local employees, and its policies are in compliance with local laws. We are unable to comment on ongoing litigation”.

    Parmar has also revelled the company had a "sensitive words list” with keywords in both Hindi and English such as "India-China border" and "Sino-India war”. Keywords such as these were censored by UC Web in India to control any news published against China and were automatically or manually rejected by an audit system.Β

    It has been long rumoured that Chinese apps tend to censor content which is unfavourable to the Chinese Government and this is the first instance when a former employee has come forward with those claims.Β 

    What do you think about Alibaba’s effort to censor content in India that was highly critical of the Chinese Government? Let us know in the comments section.

    The Kargil War plays an important role in every Indian’s life and especially mine as it was a topic of discussion in my University twelve years ago. I brought up this topic in my debate against the topic β€œIs United Nations relevant today for preventing wars” and how India managed to defeat the Pakistani intruders without United Nations even taking part in any of it. Today marks the 21st anniversary of the dispute between the two countries and we decided to compile a list of interesting facts about the conflict that you may have forgotten or didn’t know about. The victory over the Pakistani intruders is celebrated as Kargil Vijay Divas and commemorates the victory of β€˜Operation Vijay’.
    1. It Lasted for 60 DaysΒ  Β© Wikipedia Commons
    The war was fought in the Kargil-Dras sector for 60 days where both countries suffered a huge loss of life. India eventually won the war by reclaiming control of captured territories. It was also the first war between the countries since 1971 which resulted in the formation of the annexation of East Pakistan and a new country called Bangladesh was established.Β 

    2. Indian Airforce At Its BestΒ  Β© Wikipedia Commons
    The Kargil War resulted in a coordinated attack from the Indian armed forces where the Indian Air Force (IAF) assisted the army in capturing the Kargil-Dras sector. The Indian Airforce used Mig 21 and Mirage fighters back in the day for precise aerial attacks using laser-guided bombs and missiles. The IAF was essential for tracking down and destroying hideouts and Pakistani Army supply lines. The operation was called β€œSafed Sagar” and it was the first time the Indian Army used airpower from an altitude of 32,000 feet.Β 

    3. High-Altitude WarfareΒ  Β© Wikipedia Commons
    Kargil is infamous and highly touted as the most recent example of high-altitude warfare. India was able to defeat the Pakistani army thanks to a training and research establishment formed by the Indian Army in 1948. The school provides essential training to soldiers for now–craft, mountain warfare and winter warfare. Each year, soldiers undergo the Mountain Warfare course in Sonmarg between May and October.Β  Trainees also undergo a Winter Warfare course in Gulmarg between January and April. These training exercises were probably the sole reason behind the Indian Army’s victory in the Himalayas during the Kargil war.Β 

    4. Indian Navy Had A Role To Play As Well Β© Wikipedia Commons
    While the main war was fought in the mountainous region of Kargil-Dras, the Indian Navy also played a crucial role during the sixty-day conflict. The navy held a blockade on the Pakistani ports including Pakistan’s biggest port in Karachi. The purpose of the blockade was to stop the supply of oil and fuel to cripple the Pakistani economy. This was a brilliant move on the Indian Navy’s part that probably cut the war short by several months.Β 

    5. 500 Lives Were LostEvery life matters and even though India came on top after the conflict, it came at a high cost of 500 lives of Indian soldiers while Pakistan suffered 4000 casualties according to numbers stated by Nawaz Sharif. The name of the soldiers who sacrificed their lives are inscribed on the Kargil Memorial Wall which is open to the public. The public can also visit a museum attached to the memorial wall which houses pictures of Indian soldiers, recordings, important war documents, captured Pakistani equipment and official emblems of the Indian army from the conflict.Β 
    6. Bofors Gun Proved To Be Highly EffectiveΒ  Β© BCCL
    The Indian Army’s Artillery comprised of the most-watched imagery on news channels during the conflict. While it was considered highly controversial as these weapons are meant to be used against aircraft, it played a crucial role in India’s victory. The anti-aircraft auto cannon is a 40mm gun that has been in use since the second World War albeit the Indian version was a modern rendition of the weapon made in Sweden. The Bofors artillery gun was used for shelling and bombarding enemy hideouts and locations to provide cover for the advancing Indian army.Β
