    Photo: AFP LONDON: The British Parliament Thursday will finally approve the exit terms of Brexit after years of arguments that toppled two governments, clearing the divided country's exit from the European Union on January 31.
    The House of Commons will rush through a final day of hearings and ratify Prime Minister Boris Johnson´s divorce deal with Brussels, drawing a line under an extraordinary period of political chaos.
    For much of the time since the 2016 Brexit referendum, lawmakers have been deadlocked over how, when and even if Britain should leave its closest trading partners after nearly 50 years.
    Some viewed Brexit with horror, fearing that it stripped them of their European identities and turned Britain into an insular, slightly smaller, and somewhat less important nation.
    Others embraced it with fervour, viewing it as a chance to "take back control" from unelected officials in Brussels and see Britain regain some of its past might.
    Businesses and governments in Europe, puzzled with Britain´s struggles over what they viewed as a self-inflicted wound, hoped that Brexit could still somehow be undone.
    But Johnson´s comprehensive victory in last month´s general election brought an abrupt end to the turmoil, giving his Conservatives a parliamentary majority with which to push Brexit through.
    MPs gave their initial blessing to the EU Withdrawal Agreement Bill before Christmas, and the government set aside just three days this week for detailed scrutiny of the complex text.
    But few MPs even bothered to turn up on Tuesday and Wednesday, with both sessions ending early, while the government easily saw off opposition attempts to amend the text.
    The momentous day on which Johnson effectively gets his divorce deal to leave the EU sanctioned was all but ignored in Thursday´s media.
    Instead, it became a footnote to Prince Harry and Meghan´s decision to quit royal front-line duties.
    In a striking contrast to much of last year, when every Brexit vote risked bringing down the previous government and eventually did, Commons approval on Thursday is now a done deal.
    We "may not win many votes in parliament just now, but we can win the moral argument," Keir Starmer, a potential successor to Jeremy Corbyn as leader of the main opposition Labour party, said Thursday.
    "Whatever (Johnson) says about the wider issues, he must know the government have got this wrong."
    The Brexit bill must still be passed by the unelected House of Lords and the European Parliament, but this is expected before January 31.
    - Turning to trade -All eyes are now on another major challenge: the negotiation of a new relationship between Britain and the remaining 27 EU nations, which form the world´s largest single market.
    Also read: British PM to present Brexit bill to MPs on Friday: spokesperson
    The Brexit deal covers separation issues such as EU citizens´ rights and Britain´s financial settlement, and sets out an 11-month transition period in which to agree a wider partnership.
    Brussels warns the current deadline of December 31 is extremely tight, and has given London the option to ask for more time.
    But Johnson insists there will be no extension of the transition period, saying that Britain must be free of EU rules as soon as possible.
    Ahead of talks with Johnson on Wednesday, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said it would be "basically impossible" to agree everything within London´s timeframe.
    "We will have to prioritise," she said in a speech to the London School of Economics university, warning of "tough talks ahead".
    In response, Johnson´s office indicated that it could accept a partial trade deal.
    London did not want the EU´s long-standing policy that "nothing is agreed until everything is agreed" -- intended to stop one side cherry-picking bits of a deal they like -- to define the coming negotiations, a spokesman said.
    "We are very clear we want to get on in terms of negotiating a deal," he said.

    'It is a major achievement of PCB,' said Miandad about the entire edition of PSL being held in Pakistan, Photo: FileBatting legend Javed Miandad has heaped praise on Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for its decision to hold the entire fifth edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL) in the country, saying that the tournament would prove to be beneficial in preparation for the upcoming International Cricket Council (ICC) men’s Twenty20 World Cup.
    “The staging of the entire PSL in Pakistan and to witness the games at home is [a] dream come true for the Pakistan cricket fraternity.
    "It is a major achievement of PCB," said Miandad. "Our players will definitely benefit by playing at home against foreign players,” he added.
    Miandad, who represented Pakistan in Tests and ODIs between 1975 and 1996, said the PSL would bring young talent to the fore.

    “To keep the tournament more transparent, PCB should also keep a strict eye on PSL to keep it free from any fixing related issues,” he said.
    Speaking about the revival of Pakistan-India cricketing ties, Miandad — who scored 5,062 runs in 78 Tests — said that both neighbours should sort out ways and make the bilateral series happen, as the world of cricket was incomplete without Indo-Pak games.
    “A full-fledged Pakistan-India bilateral series would help in improving relations between both the countries, and will also benefit financially," Miandad said.
    He was of the view that "the world wants to see Pakistan and India playing cricket and the bilateral series."

    US Ambassador to the United Nations Kelly Craft. Photo: Reuters The United States' Ambassador to the United Nations, Kelly Craft, said on Thursday that Washington was now “ready to engage without preconditions in serious negotiations with Iran”. 
    The statement came after US President Donald Trump showed restraint following Tehran’s missile attacks on two US bases in Iraq, deciding not to launch into yet another armed conflict in the Middle East.
    In a letter to the UN's Security Council, Craft said the killing of Iranian commander Qassem Soleimani last week was 'self-defense' and vowed to take additional action “as necessary” in the Middle East to protect US personnel and interests.
    She added the US stood “ready to engage without preconditions in serious negotiations with Iran, with the goal of preventing further endangerment of international peace and security or escalation by the Iranian regime.”
    The killing of Soleimani in Baghdad on Friday was justified under Article 51 of the UN Charter, wrote Craft in the letter, seen by Reuters. She added that, “the United States is prepared to take additional actions in the region as necessary to continue to protect US personnel and interests.”
    Read also: US has restored 'level of deterrence' on Iran, says Pentagon chief.
    Craft added Soleimani’s death and US airstrikes in Iraq and Syria on December 29 against an Iran-backed militia group were “in response to an escalating series of armed attacks in recent months by the Islamic Republic of Iran and Iran-supported militias on US forces and interests in the Middle East.”
    She said the aim was to deter Iran from conducting or supporting attacks and degrade its ability to conduct attacks.
    Iran had retaliated on Wednesday for Soleimani’s death by firing missiles at military facilities housing US troops in Iraq. President Donald Trump said no Americans were hurt, soothing fears that Soleimani’s death and the Iranian response could spark a wider conflict in the Middle East.
    Iran's UN envoy dismisses any cooperation with TrumpIran’s UN ambassador Majid Takht Ravanchi dismissed President Trump’s call for cooperation as “unbelievable” and said Tehran “does not seek escalation or war” after exercising its right to self-defense by taking a “measured and proportionate military response targeting an American air base in Iraq.”
    “The operation was precise and targeted military objectives, thus leaving no collateral damage to civilians and civilian assets in the area,” Ravanchi wrote in his letter to UN.

    “Seriously warning about any further military adventurism against it, Iran declares that it is determined to continue to, vigorously and in accordance with applicable international law, defend its people, sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity against any aggression,” he said.

    The Council of Islamic Ideology (CII) on Thursday declared several clauses of the NAB Ordinance and the corruption watchdog's practice of handcuffing the accused as well as the accused's parading before media 'against Shariah', reported The News.
    Briefing the media after a two-day meeting in Islamabad, Chairman Dr Qibla Ayaz said that sections 14-D, 15-A and 26-A of the National Accountability Bureau Ordinance were 'in violation of Islamic laws'.
    Section 14-D of the ordinance states that the burden of proof "shall lie with the accused", whereas Section 15-A says that a convicted person "shall cease to hold public office" and "stand disqualified for a period of ten years" from holding a public office.
    Meanwhile, Section 26 empowers the NAB chairman to grant pardon under a plea bargain deal. The CII chairman further said that detaining, handcuffing and parading the accused in front of the media "is un-Islamic”.
    The religious scholars also recommended the legislation of strict laws and establishment of separate courts to prevent child abuse in the country. 
    Furthermore, the CII suggested a ban on uploading blasphemous content on social media and endorsed National Assembly's resolution in this regard.
    CII role questionedMinister for Science Fawad Chaudhry questioned the performance of the religious body, which is responsible for reviewing the laws in the light of Islamic principles. “There are serious questions on the CII as the religious class has never got any meaningful guidance from the body," he said in a tweet.
    “Spending millions of rupees on it is beyond my understanding. CII needs restructuring and people who are highly qualified. [People] aware of latest trends should be tasked with running it.”
    Forced conversionsIn its meeting on Wednesday, the CII took up the matter of forced conversions of religion and decided to include minority leaders in the consultation process, sources said.
    They were of the view that Islam does not allow forced conversions. It was also proposed to the Ministry of Religious Affairs to prepare a proforma for those who want to change their religion or accept Islam.

    Police complaint launched against Akshay Kumar's new add. Photo: TFIPOSTAkshay Kumar, Bollywood powerhouse recently got into legal troubles due to his latest washing powder commercial that was aired.
    The star's role is that of a warrior who returns home to his kingdom after successfully slaying his enemies.
    In the add, when one of the soldier's wives taunts the army for having dirty clothes, Akshay is heard saying that if an army can win battles, they can also wash clothes.
    However, it seems as though the commercial was not well received by the audience, particularly the Marathi people. According to TOI, they filed a police complaint in the Worli police station in Mumbai against the star for allegedly mocking the Marathi culture and hurting their sentiments.
    Akshay has not responded to any of the claims as of yet.

    Leonardo DiCaprio celebrated as a hero after saving drunken man. Photo: ComplexLeonardo DiCaprio is one of Hollywood's gems as his humanitarian endeavors never go unseen in the eyes of the public and his Instagram account attests to that fact.
    Recently, an insider came forward with news which shines light on DiCaprio's heroism off screen.
    The actor was enjoying a vacation with friends and girlfriend Camila Morrone, on a rented boat on December 30. This was when they all heard an emergency call calling for the search of a man who had fallen overboard, in a drunken haze, from a Club Med yacht.
    A source told PEOPLE, “Leo and his friends and their boat captain decided to join the search and their efforts resulted in helping save a man’s life,” the man had been treading the open water for almost 11 hours before getting rescued.
    The inside further went onto say, “The boat crew were happy to try and assist — even more so that they were able to help get the man to safety.”
    As luck would have it, DeCaprio's boat was the only one which happened to be searching for the man, at the area where he had reportedly fallen off from. The man was spotted amidst rough waters almost an hour before the sun was going to set and a heavy rainstorm set in.

    Yasir Hussain ever since he tied the knot to his longtime ladylove Iqra Aziz has been keeping his fans in the loop about their fairy tale nuptials.
    However, turns out that not all of his 1.2 followers on Instagram are too elated about the continuous updates pouring in about their wedding ceremony.
    One such negative comment caught the eye of the Chhalaawa actor who wasted no time in clapping back and hammering the troll instead of facing flak himself.
    An Instagram user had dropped the comment: “Bhai kitni Baar upload karoge ye video...abhi tak nikah k sadme me ho kya [How many times will you upload this video? Are you still unable to get out of the shock of marriage]?”


    Yasir was quick to point his guns towards the netizen as he soon struck back bringing out his A-game in trolling the troll.
    He said: “tum se thori hui hai jo sadmy mai rahonga. mai toh khushi se laga raha hun [I didn’t get married to you for me to still be in shock. I’m putting these up happily].”
    Soon after, social media users were clinging on to the thread below his Instagram post and applauding the actor for his response.

    Damage at Al Asad air base, January 8, 2020. Photo: Reuters Satellite images released by news agency Reuters on Wednesday appeared to show the damage done to the Al-Asad Air Base housing coalition troops in Iraq that was attacked by the Iran on Tuesday in retaliation for the assassination of top Iranian general Qassem Soleimani.
    Iran had claimed on Wednesday afternoon that at least 80 US troops had been killed in the attack that was carried out by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had said Iran had delivered a "slap in the face" to the US with the attack. 
    US President Donald Trump, who had tweeted immediately after the attack that America would respond after assessing the damage, rejected the Iranian claims late on Wednesday, and announced new economic sanctions on Tehran in the wake of the attacks on US troops.

    The images released by Reuters do indicate that the air base targeted in the attack sustained some damage, but it is still unclear what the extent of that damage was, or how many US troops died as a result of it. The Pentagon, which handles military affairs in US, has also remained mum on the issue.
    US-based news publication The Washington Post on Wednesday published a report that claimed that the Trump administration knew about the Iranian strikes well in advance of the actual missile attacks. Statements from Iraqi officials lend further credence to the claim. 
    The contradictory statements from the two warring parties has led to a slew of news reports that appear to either claim that the Iranians provided the warning to Iraq on purpose, while others say that the Iranians intended to hit Americans directly and without warning.

    According to news agency AFP, Iraq's prime minister's office said Wednesday it had received "an official verbal message" from Iran informing it that a missile attack on US forces stationed on Iraqi soil was imminent. Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif backed the comments of the Iraqi government on Wednesday. 
    Defence experts on social networking website Twitter further corroborated the Iraqi claims. One expert, Jeffery Lewis of the Middlebury Institute, said that the strikes showed just how precise the missiles of the Iranians were, as they destroyed selected buildings. 
    Reuters had reported on Wednesday that Iran’s launching of more than a dozen missiles at American-led forces in Iraq came after years of preparing for a confrontation with its superpower foe, whose forces are vastly larger and more advanced. 
    The Gulf country has more than 500,000 active-duty personnel, according to a report last year by the International Institute for Strategic Studies. But international sanctions and restrictions on arms imports have made it hard for Iran to develop or buy more sophisticated weaponry to confront the United States. 
    To compensate for the imbalance, Iran has developed “asymmetrical” responses — ballistic missiles, deadly drones and a web of militia allies in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen, among other things — with the aim of being able to inflict pain while avoiding the traditional battlefield.

    However, there were also those who took the opposing point of view, saying the Iranians launched the strikes without warning and used heavy-duty ballistic missiles designed to inflict maximum damage on the enemy, wanting to kill scores of American soldiers on the ground.
    National Security Correspondent for Fox News Jeffery Griffin claimed that an American general had said that the defensive actions and counter measures of the US forces helped saved American lives in the attack, as the Iran had wanted to do as much damage as possible to the base.
    The statement put out by US President Donald Trump, who is considered to be very tough on Iran by defence experts, would seem to suggest that no American lives were lost in the attack, since Trump did not order military action against Iran, and instead imposed economic sanctions.
    As leaders around the world urge for caution and restraint after the tensions between the US and Iran, it still remains to be seen how Iran responds to American claims that Tehran intentionally missed targeting US troops out of fear of a conventional conflict with the Washington.

    Selena Gomez spilled the tea on her close friendship with Taylor SwiftSelena Gomez ahead of the release of her new album Rare dropped some major news for her fan in her latest interview. 
    Speaking to WSJ Magazine, the 27-year-old singer spilled the tea on her close friendship with Taylor Swift and how the two have always stuck together through thick and thin.
    Their 13-year friendship had begun when the two were in their respective relationships with two of the Jonas Brothers — Selena with Nick and Taylor with Joe.
    Opening up about their closeness, details of which had remained away from the public, Selena said: “We clicked instantly and, man, that was my girl,."
    “There has always been this quality of sisterhood, and I don’t say that in a basic way. I knew from when I met her I would always have her back. In my life, I have the ability to forgive people who have hurt me. But I don’t know if I can forgive someone who hurts her.”
    “We both went through [expletive] at the same time. She taught me a lot about how I should be treated at a young age,” she further added.


    “There’s so much of my friendship with Taylor that people don’t know about because we don’t necessarily feel the need to post about everything we do,” she continued.
    “She has showed up for me in ways that I would have never expected. Flown in because I was hurt and was going through something. Stuff that was going on with my family. It’s been proven year after year and in every moment of my life that she is one of my best friends in the world. We don’t agree on everything, but we respect each other with everything."
    She also spoke about the healing process that Taylor instantly recognized after hearing Selena’s new music: “I remember Taylor said when I played her some of the new songs, ‘I feel like I’m seeing who you were before this [the Justin Bieber heartbreak and everything].’ That makes me happy. I like feeling like that girl again.”

I want to tell her to stop taking my name.”

    Selena Gomez plans to delete Instagram as it gets ‘unhealthy’Selena Gomez is ready to take the spotlight in 2020 with her new album and also has her eyes on the top spot. 
    But there is one crown that the diva is already wearing and that is of her social media fan following boasting of 165 million followers. In spite of the connection she shares with her fans directly through Instagram, the 27-year-old is ready to give all of that away once again.
    The fifth most followed person on Instagram revealed in her recent interview with WSJ Magazine that after her new album Rare goes public, she will be calling it quits with the photo-video sharing app.
    “I got back on [Instagram] because I was releasing music, but I just told my best friend Courtney [Lopez] yesterday, I’m going to have to take it off my phone again soon,” she said.


    Speaking about her girl pals who have kept themselves away from the public and have helped her stay connected to a life away from the spotlight, Selena added: “They know I have an addictive personality, and it can be unhealthy.”
    She had earlier walked the same path back in September 2018 as well as she announced: “Taking a social media break. Again. As much as I am grateful for the voice that social media gives each of us, I am equally grateful to be able to step back and live my life present to the moment I have been given. Kindness and encouragement only for a bit! Just remember – negative comments can hurt anybody’s feelings. Obvi.”

    Kajol reveals her most painful memory leaving fans heartbroken. Photo: MyNationThe bubbly, easygoing and beloved Kajol recently went candid and revealed some of her most personal memories. 
    During a conversation with Humans of Bombay, Kajol spoke about her marriage, meeting her husband and one of her most painful life experiences.
    Kajol revealed that during the shoot for Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham in 2001, she was pregnant and although the film was such a success, she could not bring herself to celebrate the occasion because she had suffered a miscarriage only a while prior. 
    She was quoted saying, “Over time, we began planning to have kids. I was pregnant during Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham in 2001, but had a miscarriage. I was in the hospital that day–the film had done so well, but it wasn’t a happy time. I had another miscarriage after that–it was tough,” she said in the interview. “But eventually it worked out–we had Nysa and Yug and our family’s complete."
    In regards to how she met her husband, Ajay Devgn, Kajol revealed, “We met 25 years ago, on the sets of Hulchul–I was ready for the shot & asked, ‘Where’s my hero?’ Someone pointed him out–he was broodily sitting in a corner. So 10 minutes before I met him, I bitched about him! We began talking on set & became friends.”
    She went onto say, “I was dating someone at the time & so was he–I’ve even complained about my then boyfriend to him! Soon, we both broke up with our significant others. Neither of us proposed–it was understood that we were to be together. It went from hand-holding to a lot more before we knew it.” Humans of Bombay shared her interview to their Instagram page.


    She went onto say, "We got married at home & gave the media the wrong venue–we wanted it to be our day. We had a Punjabi ceremony & a Marathi one! I remember, during the pheras Ajay was desperately trying to get the pandit to hurry up & even tried to bribe him!"
    "I wanted a long honeymoon–so we traveled to Sydney, Hawaii, Los Angeles… But 5 weeks into it, he fell sick & said, ‘Baby, book me on the next flight home!’ We were supposed to do Egypt, but we cut it short," she added.
    "We’ve been through so much–we’ve formed our own company, Ajay’s on his 100th film & every day we’re building something new. Life with him is content–we’re not too romantic or anything–we care for each other. If I’m thinking idiotic things, it’ll come out of my mouth without a filter & vice versa.

    Prince Andrew the reason why fans wont get to see Princess Beatrice's wedding live? Photo: mirror.co.ukEver since Princess Beatrice's wedding to property tycoon Edo Mapelli Mozzi became public, fans have been displeased as to how the wedding coverage has been kept away from the limelight.
    Fans have also been displeased as to how the wedding coverage has been revealed to be be showcased.
    Princess Beatrice might be the only heir to the throne, who's wedding will not be covered through a live broadcast. This news comes in stark contrast as to how the weddings of Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle were showcased.
    News of her engagement has also been left shrouded in mystery ever since her father's alleged psychedelic revelations came to light.
    Princess Beatrice's wedding might be poles apart as to that of her little sister Princess Eugenie, who got married back in 2018 and received almost three hours of airtime form ITV and This Morning.
    Many are not even aware the dates of the royal's engagement which occurred back in September. Close to the time when Prince Andrew stepped down.
    BBC was the first broadcasting agency who has made it clear that they will not be covering their nuptials live, however will still offer ‘news coverage of the wedding across our channels’. On Wednesday, ITV became the second channel to announce the same.

    As half of Australia continues to burn, millions of innocent animals have been killed and thousands of houses have been destroyed. To add to that, the disturbing and terrifying posts circulating on social media are proof that things there are far worse than what any of us can ever imagine.  
    Amidst the worsening situation, the brave firefighters and volunteers are putting their lives on line, to rescue as many lives as possible and many have even lost their lives in the rescue mission. Two such brave firefighters were 36-year-old Andrew O'Dwyer and Geoffry Keaton who were tragically killed when their fire truck reportedly rolled off the road, while fighting the Green Wattle Fire near Buxton.

During his funeral, Andrew's 19-month-old daughter was presented with his helmet and medal of honour and the heartbreaking moment has left people around the world in tears. 
    Andrew was posthumously awarded the Commissioner's commendation for extraordinary service and bravery.

    — Nine News Melbourne (@9NewsMelb) January 7, 2020 According to reports, volunteers of NWS Rural Fire Service and from other emergency services formed a guard of honour and stood with their hands on their hearts to bid him farewell. Australia PM Scott Morrison was among the mourners in attendance.

    "Charlotte should know her father was a selfless and special man, who only left because he was a hero," the commissioner said in one of his interviews.
    Charlotte is probably too young to understand what is happening around her or why her father won't be with her anymore, but she will surely remember her father as one of the bravest men who lost his life while saving people. And that he's not only her hero but will be remembered as the nation's 'hero' forever.

    The fatal bushfires in Australia have taken a toll on wildlife and human life in the continent as everyone is trying to struggle to survive at a time when the planet Earth demands our utmost attention. 
    While many organisations and volunteers are doing everything they can to help the victims, one such story of unusual warmth is that of a Sikh woman named Sukhwinder Kaur, who cancelled her first trip to India in 10 years and decided to stay back just so she could cook meals and help serve the affected people in Australia.

    She was supposed to fly back home to see her sister who is in a comatose state after suffering a stroke. 
    Sukhwinder Kaur helps the kitchen community at East Gippsland where her day begins early in the morning and she prepares over a 1000 meals in a day till 11 pm every day. In an interview with SBS Punjabi, she explained why she decided to stay back. “I realised my first duty is towards the community here where I have lived for so long. If I had left the people here during such a difficult time, I don't think I could call myself a good human being”.

    People around her are in awe of her warmth and the love that she has extended towards the community. This is a beautiful example of how one necessarily need not be rich or successful when help calls. One simply needs to have a heart full of love.

    Hailey Baldwin slams trolls for belittling Justin Bieber’s Lyme diseaseFollowing the news of Justin Bieber getting diagnosed with Lyme disease, social media went into frenzy with many poking fun at the singer. 
    However, the 25-year-old Baby singer’s wife and supermodel Hailey Baldwin was quick to fire back and hammer the trolls for downplaying his struggle with the disease.
    In a series of tweets, the model clapped back at the netizens as she said: “For those who are trying to downplay the severity of Lyme disease. Please do your research and listen to the stories of people who have suffered with it for years. Making fun of and belittling a disease you don’t understand is never the way, all it takes is educating yourself.”
    She further thanked the Hadid sisters Gigi and Bella as well as their mother Yolanda for their support: “I wanna say a huge thank you to @YolandaHadid and @bellahadid and @GiGiHadid for bringing me so much clarity and information on Lyme disease and for helping answer my questions about course of action, symptoms etc. Love you 3 amazing women!”
    Moreover, Canadian singer Avril Lavigne, who has also been through the same medical condition was also given a shout-out by Hailey in one of her tweets as she said: “sending so much love to @AvrilLavigne thank you for all you do to educate people about Lyme. You’re amazing.”

    Akshay Kumar has had a super successful year in terms of Box Office collections. However, that is not his only achievement. He perhaps is the most talked about Bollywood celebrity when it comes to the current political climate of the country. He gets trolled often on social media, and he has never hit back (perhaps till now?). 
    He just stepped out in a hoodie at the airport, that can double up as a perfect means to tell people to back off without actually having to utter a word.

    Akshay is wearing a stylish AF graphic hoodie from Vetements. The hoodie has two sets of passive-aggressive - actually scratch that, *just* aggressive comebacks. The first one reads: "I'm not deaf, I'm just ignoring you", and the second one reads: "Don't you mess around with me!"

    The hoodie also has 'Russia' written on it with the country's national flag, artistically placed on top of the text graphics.

    When it comes to the rest of his outfit, he kept it simple with black joggers (one leg rolled up in the distinctive Akki-style), and a black cap. For some strange reason, he's wearing only one airpod.

    Irrespective of what it means, we love the hoodie, and think Mr Khiladi is carrying it off really well.

    It's hard to remember the moment when the words following jana gana mana… became second nature to me. Was it the preparatory school teacher who worked her magic and helped me commit the entire composition to memory when I couldn't even remember all the letters in my full name? Or was it even earlier than that, when Ma would sing it aloud at home and urge me to repeat the song of the nation after her?

    For most of us, recollecting the exact moment when our mind gave way to the national anthem verbatim, is a rather difficult one. But you see, that's how it's been. It was the mind that caught onto the words, while the heart was kept out of the loop from the start. We know our rashtriya gaan by heart, but is our heart in it?

    Today, nobody needs to be told twice that we ought to stand up for the national anthem, that there are proper times and places for one to play/sing it, that the national anthem demands a certain kind of respect and that most people expect fellow Indians to show that respect, especially when in public.
    The national anthem is a big deal and here's why.
    A national anthem is the song of the people. Often soaked in patriotic fervour, the anthem is representative of a country's history, culture, tradition, and beliefs. Therefore, it becomes an emblem of national identity and is held dear by citizens and the government alike.

    The national anthem is so powerful that it can bring an entire nation together with one song, reminding them of their country's glory and heritage. The anthem is used to evoke pride and feelings of belongingness and unity when sung by one and all, regardless of their caste, creed or gender.
    But there is more.

    What makes India and our national anthem all the more invaluable is the fact that the subcontinent is known for its diversity; be it ethnic, religious, linguistic or even cultural. For ages, India has shown the world how a hundred contradictions can exist peacefully together, living and building a greater nation in harmony.
    India's national anthem literally spells it all out. Here is what our national anthem means, literally.
    You are the ruler of the minds of all people,
    Dispenser of India's destiny.
    Your name rouses the hearts of Punjab, Sindh,
    Gujarat and Maratha,
    Of the Dravida and Odisha
    and Bengal;
    It echoes in the hills of Vindhya and the
    Himalayas,
    Mingles in the music of Ganga and Yamuna
    and is chanted by
    The waves of the Indian sea.
    They pray for your blessings and sing your praise.
    The saving of all people waits in your hand,
    You are the dispenser of India's destiny.
    Victory, victory, victory to you.
    It's a hymn to India, the pride and joy of every individual who lives on its land, breathes its free air and collectively works to bring more glory to its name. There is no distinction between those who call India their motherland, their homeland, their home.

    Perhaps understanding the true essence of our anthem will remind us to put all else beyond our limited scope of worldview and come together to celebrate our country's greatest strength - we are all for this country, this country is for us all.

    Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on National Security Division Dr Moeed Yusuf. Photo: FileSpecial Assistant to the Prime Minister on National Security Division Dr Moeed Yusuf has said the United States has sought Pakistan’s help to defuse tensions in its conflict with Iran.
    “Washington asking Islamabad to play a role in the Middle East row shows Pakistan’s international standing as a peacemaker," Yusuf said while speaking to Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath.
    The situation in the Gulf region escalated after Iran, in retaliation to the killing of its military commander Qasem Soleimani in a drone attack last week, fired missiles at US bases in Iraq on Tuesday night.
    US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Defense Secretary Mark Esper had made phone calls to Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Bajwa in the past few days to discuss the conflict.

    General Bajwa told the US officials that the region cannot afford another war and dialogue is the only way forward.
    Yusuf added that Pakistan has made its stance very clear to the US that we don’t want conflict here. “We hope that the situation would de-escalate. PM Imran has instructed the foreign minister and army chief to approach major countries,” he said.
    “Pakistan is trying to play the role of a mediator for the sake of peace in the region and no Muslim country other than Pakistan could do that,” Yusaf added.
    ‘Won’t become part of new war now’Prime Minister Imran Khan on Wednesday asked Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi to visit Iran, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the US to convey the message that Pakistan was ready to play its role for peace, but it would never again be a part of any war.

    The prime minister also asked the army chief to contact relevant military leaders of Iran, Saudi Arabia and the US to convey the same message.
    “I have asked FM Qureshi to visit Iran, KSA and USA to meet with respective foreign ministers, Secretary of State; and COAS Gen Bajwa to contact relevant military leaders to convey a clear message: Pakistan is ready to play its role for peace but it can never again be part of any war,” the prime minister had said in a tweet.
    US 'ready to embrace peace’: Trump US President Donald Trump on Wednesday pulled back from the brink of war with Iran on Wednesday, saying that Tehran appeared to be "standing down" after firing missiles — without causing casualties — at US troops based in Iraq.
    In a televised address to the nation from the White House, Trump emphasised there were "no Americans harmed" in the ballistic missile salvo aimed at two bases.

    He also offered peace to Iran, saying Tehran was "standing down" after missile strikes on US troop bases in Iraq that resulted in no American or Iraqi deaths.
