नहीं सुधरने वाला पाकिस्तान! लंदन में पाक अधिकारी की बेशर्मी, भारतीयों को किया गला काटने का इशारा

#pakistanofficialthroatslittinggestureatindian_protesters

पहलगाम आतंकी हमले के विरोध में पूरे देश में उबाल है। इस आक्रोश का असर विदेशों में भी दिख रहा है। पहलगाम हमले की पूरी दुनिया में निंदा हो रही है, लेकिन इससे अगर किसी को फर्क नहीं पड़ता है तो वो है पाकिस्तान। वैश्विक मंच पर हो रही बेइज्जती के बाद भी पाकिस्तान ने बेशर्मी की हदें पार दी है। शुक्रवार को लंदन में बड़ी संख्या में भारतीय और भारतीय मूल के लोग इकट्ठा हुए और उन्होंने पाकिस्तानी उच्चायोग के बाहर विरोध प्रदर्शन किया। इस दौरान पाकिस्तानी उच्चायोग में तैनात पाकिस्तानी सेना के एक अधिकारी ने भारतीयों की तरफ आपत्तिजनक इशारा किया।

पाक अधिकारी की शर्मनाक हरकत

पाकिस्तान उच्चायोग के अधिकारी कर्नल तैमूर राहत ने ऐसी शर्मनाक हरकत की कि हर तरफ इसकी आलोचना हो रही है। पाकिस्तानी अधिकारी ने भारतीयों की तरफ गला काटने का इशारा किया। इतना ही नहीं इस दौरान उसने अभिनंदन वर्धमान की चाय के साथ एक तस्वीर भी हाथ में ली हुई थी, जिसे वह बार-बार दिखा रहा था। उसकी इस बेशर्म हरकत को वहां मौजूद किसी शख्स ने अपने कैमरे में कैद कर लिया। अब यह सोशल मीडिया पर वायरल हो रहा है।

भारतीयों के प्रदर्शन के दौरान तेज संगीत बजाया

एक तरफ पहलगाम में मासूम पर्यटकों की निर्मम हत्या से न सिर्फ भारत बल्कि पूरी दुनिया में गम का माहौल है। वहीं लंदन स्थित पाकिस्तानी उच्चायोग ने बेशर्मी की हद पार करते हुए भारतीयों के प्रदर्शन के दौरान तेज संगीत बजाया। ऐसा लगा कि पाकिस्तानी उच्चायोग पहलगाम हमले का जश्न मना रहा है। कई प्रदर्शनकारियों ने पाकिस्तान की इस हरकत पर नाराजगी भी जताई। भारतीयों के समर्थन में बड़ी संख्या में यहूदी भी प्रदर्शन में शामिल हुए। उन्होंने कहा कि पहलगाम में हुआ हमला वैसा ही है, जैसे इस्राइल पर 7 अक्तूबर 2023 को हमला हुआ था। दोनों जगह निर्दोष नागरिकों को मारा गया।

लंदन में पहलगाम हमले के विरोध में प्रदर्शन

बता दें कि पहलगाम हमले के विरोध में ब्रिटिश हिंदुओं ने शुक्रवार को लंदन में पाकिस्तानी उच्चायोग के बाहर विरोध प्रदर्शन किया। इस दौरान प्रदर्शनकारियों ने हाथों में बैनर और प्लेकार्ड पकड़े हुए थे और प्रदर्शनकारी नारेबाजी कर रहे थे और पहलगाम पीड़ितों के लिए न्याय की मांग कर रहे थे। प्रदर्शनकारियों ने आतंकवाद के खिलाफ नारे लगाए और पाकिस्तान पर आतंकवाद का समर्थन करने का आरोप लगाया।

Why your resume (mostly) doesn’t matter - Nishtha Desai

 

TEDx Talk | YoutubeMr. Sarabjeet Sachar, founder and CEO of Aspiration Jobs, recently gave an inspiring TEDx talk during TEDxGoldenBridge Studio, sharing new ideas on how value-based connections play a critical role in professional development. The speaker told us that success often does not hinge on resumes or traditional job applications, but rather on building valuable, meaningful relationships that position one on the right path for opportunities to knock.

TEDxGoldenBridge Studio, themed “Semicolon; Pausing to Connect,” brings together a diverse array of speakers and curators to explore the power of intentional pauses and meaningful connections in our lives; has the reputation for providing a platform to ideas that are worth spreading, gave the best platform to this thought-provoking presentation. The proceedings were efficiently planned by Harsh Thakkar (Licensee), Sahaj Tyagi (Co-licensee), Siya Kachhela (Head Curator), Vraj Dangarwala (First Curator), and Yug Desai (Post Production Lead) so that every moment of the event was memorable for everyone in attendance.

The author, Nishtha Desai emphasizes the significance of forming genuine relationships during one's career path. According to her, the emphasis must be on proving oneself, making personal and professional values align with the company mission, and being around people with the same intentions. For her, a career founded on sincere connections is more fulfilling and successful than one focused only on resumes and automated processes.

Crux of the Topic

In his presentation, Sarabjeet Sachar brought forth the revolutionary idea of value-based relationships, breaking from the conventional dependence on resumes in job searching. He identified how the dependence on resumes generated by artificial intelligence and generic keywords tends to derail the recruitment process, making it increasingly difficult for the candidates to get noticed. The actual key to professional success, he contended, is being a problem-solver, not merely a set of credentials.

Details 

It started at the age of 21, when a newly graduated student was commuting on a local train in Mumbai. Enthusiastically talking about a dream to have a career in sales, this person was excited about the prospect of meeting people, knowing their problems, and providing tailored solutions. Unaware to them, a regional sales manager from a major pharmaceutical firm happened to overhear the conversation. Influenced by their passion and commitment in their words, the manager went up to the graduate and gave them his business card, inviting them in for an interview. No resume was required; it was the passion and commitment that got them the job.

This was the starting point of a successful career in sales, where the person rose through the ranks to senior levels in well-known companies like Times of India, Indian Express, The Hindu, India Today, and ZTV Network. In all these shifts, the emphasis remained on demonstrating their worth and love, instead of talking of a resume.

The central takeaway here is that the traditional resume may open doors, but it’s the authentic value you bring that will truly walk you through them. Research and preparation are key. Much like a business consultant, job seekers should approach potential employers by understanding their needs and positioning themselves as solution providers. This requires a shift in mindset—viewing the job search process not as a race to submit applications, but as an opportunity to build meaningful, value-driven connections.

The presentation touched on some of the real-life scenarios in which professionals constructed their careers by intentionally concentrating on value-based network construction. Sarabjeet Sachar narrated examples of people such as Amit and Simon, who were able to switch into new fields and gain leadership positions by matching their capabilities with the precise requirements of their potential employers.

This creative strategy is opposite to the conventional thinking of writing a resume based on a job description. Sachar emphasized that employers are not seeking flawless resumes but those who can provide solutions to their issues. By establishing these connections via networking and reciprocal value, professionals can tap into job opportunities that are not listed on conventional job boards.

Conclusion

As Sarabjeet Sachar finished speaking, he challenged the audience to change their career development mindset. Rather than just concentrating on resumes, professionals need to work towards building deep, genuine relationships founded on common values. These will open doors to opportunities and drive career progression in a more profound manner.

The TEDxGoldenBridge Studio event gave a new insight into job seeking and career development, urging working professionals to aim at establishing value-based relationships to thrive in the competitive job market of today.

कनाडा में भारतीय मूल की छात्रा की हत्या, बस स्टॉप पर खड़ी हरसिमरत को कार वाले ने मारी गोली

#indianoriginstudentkilledbybulltetinontariocanada

कनाडा में 21 वर्षीय एक भारतीय छात्रा की गोली लगने से मौत हो गई । ऑफिस जाने के लिए छात्रा बस स्टॉप पर इंतजार कर रही थी, तभी एक कार सवार ने गोली चला दी। हरसिमरत रंधावा हैमिल्टन, ओंटारियो में मोहॉक कॉलेज की छात्रा थी।

टोरंटो में भारत के महावाणिज्य दूतावास ने शुक्रवार को एक पोस्ट में कहा, हैमिल्टन, ओंटारियो में भारतीय छात्रा हरसिमरत रंधावा की दुखद मौत से हम बहुत दुखी हैं। टोरंटो में भारत के महावाणिज्य दूतावास ने कहा, हम ओंटारियो के हैमिल्टन में भारतीय छात्रा हरसिमरत रंधावा की दुखद मौत से दुखी हैं। स्थानीय पुलिस के अनुसार, वह एक मासूम थी। वह दो गाड़ियों के बीच हुई गोलीबारी में उसकी जान चली गई। हत्या की जांच चल रही है। हम उनके परिवार के संपर्क में हैं। हर संभव सहायता दे रहे हैं। इस मुश्किल समय में हमारी संवेदनाएं और प्रार्थनाएं परिवार के साथ हैं।

दो लोगों की लड़ाई में भारतीय छात्रा की गई जान

हैमिल्टन पुलिस ने भारतीय छात्रा की मौत के मामले में बताया कि सीसीटीवी की जांच की गई तो पाया गया कि ये दो लोगों की लड़ाई का नतीजा है, ऐसा इसलिए क्योंकि एक काली कार में सवार युवक ने सफेद सेडान पर गोली चलाई थी। एक गोली बस स्टॉप पर खड़ी छात्रा के सीने में लग गई, जिससे उसकी मौत हो गई। पुलिस गोलीबारी करने वालों आरोपियों की तलाश में लगी हुई है।

अप्रैल में भारतीय मूल के 2 लोगों की हत्या

पुलिस ने कहा कि स्थानीय समयानुसार शाम करीब 7.30 बजे उसे हैमिल्टन में अपर जेम्स और साउथ बेंड रोड के पास गोलीबारी की सूचना मिली थी। जब पुलिस वहां पहुंची तो उसने रंधावा को सीने में गोली लगने के घाव के साथ घायल अवस्था में पाया। उसे अस्पताल ले जाया गया, लेकिन उसकी मौत हो गई।

इस घटना से पहले 5 अप्रैल को भी एक भारतीय युवक की गोली मारकर हत्या कर दी गई थी। कनाडा में अप्रैल महीने में भारतीय मूल के 2 लोगों की हत्या की गई है।

यूक्रेन में भारतीय कंपनी पर हमला, कीव के अटैक के दावों से रूस का इनकार

#russiadeniesattackonindianfirmin_ukraine

रूस-यूक्रेन के बीच जंग जारी है। इस बीच कीव स्थित एक भारतीय दवा कंपनी के गोदाम पर मिसाइल अटैक हुआ है। यूक्रेन ने दावा किया कि यह हमला रूस की ओर से किया गया था। यूक्रेन ने आरोप लगाया था कि 12 अप्रैल को रूस की सशस्त्र सेनाओं ने कीएव स्थित इस वेयरहाउस पर ड्रोन से हमला किया था। इस मामले में रूस की प्रतिक्रिया सामने आई है। रूस ने यूक्रेन के कीव में भारतीय दवा कंपनी के गोदाम पर हुए हमले में अपना हाथ होने से इनकार किया है।

कीव के दावों पर रूस ने दी सफाई

भारत स्थित रूस के दूतावास ने इस संबंध में गुरुवार को एक बयान जारी कर यूक्रेन के आरोपों को ख़ारिज कर दिया है। रूस ने कहा कि उसकी सेना ने इस भारतीय स्वामित्व वाले सिविलियन ढांचे को न तो निशाना बनाया और न ही उसकी ऐसी कोई योजना थी।

रूसी दूतावास के अनुसार, उस दिन रूसी सैन्य कार्रवाई के कुछ टार्गेट थे। इनमें यूक्रेनी सैन्य उद्योग परिसर का विमान संयंत्र, सैन्य हवाई अड्डे का ढांचा और बख्तरबंद वाहन मरम्मत केंद्र और ड्रोन असेंबली वर्कशॉप शामिल थे।

दूतावास ने बयान में कहा कि संभावना है कि यूक्रेनी वायु रक्षा प्रणाली की कोई मिसाइल लक्ष्य भेदने में विफल रही और आबादी वाले इलाके़ में जा गिरी। इससे कुसुम हेल्थकेयर के वेयरहाउस में आग लग गई। ऐसी घटनाएं पहले भी हो चुकी हैं।

रूस पर जानबूझकर भारतीय कारोबारियों को निशाना बनाने का आरोप

यूक्रेन ने राजधानी कीव में कुसुम ग्रुप की यूनिट ‘ग्लैडफार्म’ पर ड्रोन से हमले का दावा किया था। यूक्रेन में भारत के लिए राजदूत ओलेक्ज़ेंडर पोलिशचुक ने बुधवार को दावा किया कि यह हमला जानबूझकर किया गया था, क्योंकि कुसुम ग्रुप ने युद्ध के दौरान यूक्रेन को जरूरी मानवीय सहायता दी थी। इस हमले में कंपनी को लगभग 25 मिलियन डॉलर का नुकसान हुआ है।

यूक्रेन का आरोप है कि रूस अब फार्मास्युटिकल यूनिट्स और जरूरी इंफ्रास्ट्रक्चर को टारगेट कर रहा है। रात के वक्त ईरान निर्मित ‘शहीद’ ड्रोन से हमले इसलिए किए जा रहे हैं ताकि दिन में इंटरसेप्ट होने से बचा जा सके।

*Fortress vs Flair as Mohun Bagan Super Giant lock horns with Bengaluru FC in a blockbuster title clash*

Sports

ISL

Kolkata : Mohun Bagan Super Giant (MBSG) will face Bengaluru FC in the final of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan (VYBK) on April 12, at 7:30 PM IST in a blockbuster winner takes all clash befitting of a much awaited title clash.

Speaking at the pre-match press conference in Kolkata ahead of the final, Mohun Bagan Super Giant Head Coach Jose Molina stressed on the importance of looking forward and not worrying about the past. “I don’t care about what happened in the past. I am trying to do my best for Mohun Bagan Super Giant. We did well to win the League Shield and we are motivated to win the ISL Cup too. I don’t need extra motivation from the fact that we lost the final last year. We are already motivated enough.”

Bengaluru FC Head Coach Gerard Zaragoza, who showed exemplary camaraderie by helping a translate a question for his counterpart Molina, was chuffed about playing the big final in Kolkata. “We are very motivated for the finals and excited for the game. Everything is fine. We are confident and Kolkata is almost like our second home, because we were here for the Durand Cup. We had a good playoffs and we are looking forward to the grand finale.”

His sentiment was echoed by BFC goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, who spoke fondly about his long association with the city. “As you know, my journey as a professional footballer started here and I was very lucky to be getting opportunities to play matches from the beginning. I am grateful for the journey. If you get an opportunity to play big games, big finals, in front of big crowds as a player, it’s a great experience and I am lucky to be here for the match in Kolkata.” Gurpreet also reserved some special praise for the opponents, saying, “Mohun Bagan Super Giant have been the standout team this season and there is no denying that, which is why they won the League Shield.”

Mohun Bagan Super Giant captain Subhasish Bose, who Molina jokingly referred to as a striker in light of his goalscoring form in this edition, shed light on the significance of the venue as a local boy. “I am always thrilled to play in front of our home fans. I wish that the fans support us wholeheartedly against Bengaluru FC tomorrow.”

MBSG are the League Shield Winners, whereas Bengaluru FC finished third in the standings and then cruised past the challenges that fronted them in the eliminator and semi-final to make it to the summit clash.

It is a fourth ISL finals appearance for BFC in just 8 seasons, while MBSG have become the first team to reach this stage three successive times. This fixture is an encore of the ISL 2022-23 showdown, when both these sides had clashed in the season finale, with the Kolkata-based team emerging triumphant via penalties in a very tight contest.

They have the chance to repeat that feat in front of a vociferous home crowd this time around, whereas Bengaluru FC will take confidence from their recent form to distort MBSG’s record of staying unbeaten at home thus far in the current campaign.

नहीं सुधरने वाला पाकिस्तान! लंदन में पाक अधिकारी की बेशर्मी, भारतीयों को किया गला काटने का इशारा

#pakistanofficialthroatslittinggestureatindian_protesters

पहलगाम आतंकी हमले के विरोध में पूरे देश में उबाल है। इस आक्रोश का असर विदेशों में भी दिख रहा है। पहलगाम हमले की पूरी दुनिया में निंदा हो रही है, लेकिन इससे अगर किसी को फर्क नहीं पड़ता है तो वो है पाकिस्तान। वैश्विक मंच पर हो रही बेइज्जती के बाद भी पाकिस्तान ने बेशर्मी की हदें पार दी है। शुक्रवार को लंदन में बड़ी संख्या में भारतीय और भारतीय मूल के लोग इकट्ठा हुए और उन्होंने पाकिस्तानी उच्चायोग के बाहर विरोध प्रदर्शन किया। इस दौरान पाकिस्तानी उच्चायोग में तैनात पाकिस्तानी सेना के एक अधिकारी ने भारतीयों की तरफ आपत्तिजनक इशारा किया।

पाक अधिकारी की शर्मनाक हरकत

पाकिस्तान उच्चायोग के अधिकारी कर्नल तैमूर राहत ने ऐसी शर्मनाक हरकत की कि हर तरफ इसकी आलोचना हो रही है। पाकिस्तानी अधिकारी ने भारतीयों की तरफ गला काटने का इशारा किया। इतना ही नहीं इस दौरान उसने अभिनंदन वर्धमान की चाय के साथ एक तस्वीर भी हाथ में ली हुई थी, जिसे वह बार-बार दिखा रहा था। उसकी इस बेशर्म हरकत को वहां मौजूद किसी शख्स ने अपने कैमरे में कैद कर लिया। अब यह सोशल मीडिया पर वायरल हो रहा है।

भारतीयों के प्रदर्शन के दौरान तेज संगीत बजाया

एक तरफ पहलगाम में मासूम पर्यटकों की निर्मम हत्या से न सिर्फ भारत बल्कि पूरी दुनिया में गम का माहौल है। वहीं लंदन स्थित पाकिस्तानी उच्चायोग ने बेशर्मी की हद पार करते हुए भारतीयों के प्रदर्शन के दौरान तेज संगीत बजाया। ऐसा लगा कि पाकिस्तानी उच्चायोग पहलगाम हमले का जश्न मना रहा है। कई प्रदर्शनकारियों ने पाकिस्तान की इस हरकत पर नाराजगी भी जताई। भारतीयों के समर्थन में बड़ी संख्या में यहूदी भी प्रदर्शन में शामिल हुए। उन्होंने कहा कि पहलगाम में हुआ हमला वैसा ही है, जैसे इस्राइल पर 7 अक्तूबर 2023 को हमला हुआ था। दोनों जगह निर्दोष नागरिकों को मारा गया।

लंदन में पहलगाम हमले के विरोध में प्रदर्शन

TEDx Talk | YoutubeMr. Sarabjeet Sachar, founder and CEO of Aspiration Jobs, recently gave an inspiring TEDx talk during TEDxGoldenBridge Studio, sharing new ideas on how value-based connections play a critical role in professional development. The speaker told us that success often does not hinge on resumes or traditional job applications, but rather on building valuable, meaningful relationships that position one on the right path for opportunities to knock.

TEDxGoldenBridge Studio, themed “Semicolon; Pausing to Connect,” brings together a diverse array of speakers and curators to explore the power of intentional pauses and meaningful connections in our lives; has the reputation for providing a platform to ideas that are worth spreading, gave the best platform to this thought-provoking presentation. The proceedings were efficiently planned by Harsh Thakkar (Licensee), Sahaj Tyagi (Co-licensee), Siya Kachhela (Head Curator), Vraj Dangarwala (First Curator), and Yug Desai (Post Production Lead) so that every moment of the event was memorable for everyone in attendance.

The author, Nishtha Desai emphasizes the significance of forming genuine relationships during one's career path. According to her, the emphasis must be on proving oneself, making personal and professional values align with the company mission, and being around people with the same intentions. For her, a career founded on sincere connections is more fulfilling and successful than one focused only on resumes and automated processes.

Crux of the Topic

In his presentation, Sarabjeet Sachar brought forth the revolutionary idea of value-based relationships, breaking from the conventional dependence on resumes in job searching. He identified how the dependence on resumes generated by artificial intelligence and generic keywords tends to derail the recruitment process, making it increasingly difficult for the candidates to get noticed. The actual key to professional success, he contended, is being a problem-solver, not merely a set of credentials.

Details 

It started at the age of 21, when a newly graduated student was commuting on a local train in Mumbai. Enthusiastically talking about a dream to have a career in sales, this person was excited about the prospect of meeting people, knowing their problems, and providing tailored solutions. Unaware to them, a regional sales manager from a major pharmaceutical firm happened to overhear the conversation. Influenced by their passion and commitment in their words, the manager went up to the graduate and gave them his business card, inviting them in for an interview. No resume was required; it was the passion and commitment that got them the job.

This was the starting point of a successful career in sales, where the person rose through the ranks to senior levels in well-known companies like Times of India, Indian Express, The Hindu, India Today, and ZTV Network. In all these shifts, the emphasis remained on demonstrating their worth and love, instead of talking of a resume.

The central takeaway here is that the traditional resume may open doors, but it’s the authentic value you bring that will truly walk you through them. Research and preparation are key. Much like a business consultant, job seekers should approach potential employers by understanding their needs and positioning themselves as solution providers. This requires a shift in mindset—viewing the job search process not as a race to submit applications, but as an opportunity to build meaningful, value-driven connections.

The presentation touched on some of the real-life scenarios in which professionals constructed their careers by intentionally concentrating on value-based network construction. Sarabjeet Sachar narrated examples of people such as Amit and Simon, who were able to switch into new fields and gain leadership positions by matching their capabilities with the precise requirements of their potential employers.

This creative strategy is opposite to the conventional thinking of writing a resume based on a job description. Sachar emphasized that employers are not seeking flawless resumes but those who can provide solutions to their issues. By establishing these connections via networking and reciprocal value, professionals can tap into job opportunities that are not listed on conventional job boards.

Conclusion

As Sarabjeet Sachar finished speaking, he challenged the audience to change their career development mindset. Rather than just concentrating on resumes, professionals need to work towards building deep, genuine relationships founded on common values. These will open doors to opportunities and drive career progression in a more profound manner.

The TEDxGoldenBridge Studio event gave a new insight into job seeking and career development, urging working professionals to aim at establishing value-based relationships to thrive in the competitive job market of today.

कनाडा में भारतीय मूल की छात्रा की हत्या, बस स्टॉप पर खड़ी हरसिमरत को कार वाले ने मारी गोली

#indianoriginstudentkilledbybulltetinontariocanada

कनाडा में 21 वर्षीय एक भारतीय छात्रा की गोली लगने से मौत हो गई । ऑफिस जाने के लिए छात्रा बस स्टॉप पर इंतजार कर रही थी, तभी एक कार सवार ने गोली चला दी। हरसिमरत रंधावा हैमिल्टन, ओंटारियो में मोहॉक कॉलेज की छात्रा थी।

टोरंटो में भारत के महावाणिज्य दूतावास ने शुक्रवार को एक पोस्ट में कहा, हैमिल्टन, ओंटारियो में भारतीय छात्रा हरसिमरत रंधावा की दुखद मौत से हम बहुत दुखी हैं। टोरंटो में भारत के महावाणिज्य दूतावास ने कहा, हम ओंटारियो के हैमिल्टन में भारतीय छात्रा हरसिमरत रंधावा की दुखद मौत से दुखी हैं। स्थानीय पुलिस के अनुसार, वह एक मासूम थी। वह दो गाड़ियों के बीच हुई गोलीबारी में उसकी जान चली गई। हत्या की जांच चल रही है। हम उनके परिवार के संपर्क में हैं। हर संभव सहायता दे रहे हैं। इस मुश्किल समय में हमारी संवेदनाएं और प्रार्थनाएं परिवार के साथ हैं।

दो लोगों की लड़ाई में भारतीय छात्रा की गई जान

हैमिल्टन पुलिस ने भारतीय छात्रा की मौत के मामले में बताया कि सीसीटीवी की जांच की गई तो पाया गया कि ये दो लोगों की लड़ाई का नतीजा है, ऐसा इसलिए क्योंकि एक काली कार में सवार युवक ने सफेद सेडान पर गोली चलाई थी। एक गोली बस स्टॉप पर खड़ी छात्रा के सीने में लग गई, जिससे उसकी मौत हो गई। पुलिस गोलीबारी करने वालों आरोपियों की तलाश में लगी हुई है।

अप्रैल में भारतीय मूल के 2 लोगों की हत्या

पुलिस ने कहा कि स्थानीय समयानुसार शाम करीब 7.30 बजे उसे हैमिल्टन में अपर जेम्स और साउथ बेंड रोड के पास गोलीबारी की सूचना मिली थी। जब पुलिस वहां पहुंची तो उसने रंधावा को सीने में गोली लगने के घाव के साथ घायल अवस्था में पाया। उसे अस्पताल ले जाया गया, लेकिन उसकी मौत हो गई।

इस घटना से पहले 5 अप्रैल को भी एक भारतीय युवक की गोली मारकर हत्या कर दी गई थी। कनाडा में अप्रैल महीने में भारतीय मूल के 2 लोगों की हत्या की गई है।

यूक्रेन में भारतीय कंपनी पर हमला, कीव के अटैक के दावों से रूस का इनकार

#russiadeniesattackonindianfirmin_ukraine

रूस-यूक्रेन के बीच जंग जारी है। इस बीच कीव स्थित एक भारतीय दवा कंपनी के गोदाम पर मिसाइल अटैक हुआ है। यूक्रेन ने दावा किया कि यह हमला रूस की ओर से किया गया था। यूक्रेन ने आरोप लगाया था कि 12 अप्रैल को रूस की सशस्त्र सेनाओं ने कीएव स्थित इस वेयरहाउस पर ड्रोन से हमला किया था। इस मामले में रूस की प्रतिक्रिया सामने आई है। रूस ने यूक्रेन के कीव में भारतीय दवा कंपनी के गोदाम पर हुए हमले में अपना हाथ होने से इनकार किया है।

कीव के दावों पर रूस ने दी सफाई

भारत स्थित रूस के दूतावास ने इस संबंध में गुरुवार को एक बयान जारी कर यूक्रेन के आरोपों को ख़ारिज कर दिया है। रूस ने कहा कि उसकी सेना ने इस भारतीय स्वामित्व वाले सिविलियन ढांचे को न तो निशाना बनाया और न ही उसकी ऐसी कोई योजना थी।

रूसी दूतावास के अनुसार, उस दिन रूसी सैन्य कार्रवाई के कुछ टार्गेट थे। इनमें यूक्रेनी सैन्य उद्योग परिसर का विमान संयंत्र, सैन्य हवाई अड्डे का ढांचा और बख्तरबंद वाहन मरम्मत केंद्र और ड्रोन असेंबली वर्कशॉप शामिल थे।

दूतावास ने बयान में कहा कि संभावना है कि यूक्रेनी वायु रक्षा प्रणाली की कोई मिसाइल लक्ष्य भेदने में विफल रही और आबादी वाले इलाके़ में जा गिरी। इससे कुसुम हेल्थकेयर के वेयरहाउस में आग लग गई। ऐसी घटनाएं पहले भी हो चुकी हैं।

रूस पर जानबूझकर भारतीय कारोबारियों को निशाना बनाने का आरोप

यूक्रेन ने राजधानी कीव में कुसुम ग्रुप की यूनिट ‘ग्लैडफार्म’ पर ड्रोन से हमले का दावा किया था। यूक्रेन में भारत के लिए राजदूत ओलेक्ज़ेंडर पोलिशचुक ने बुधवार को दावा किया कि यह हमला जानबूझकर किया गया था, क्योंकि कुसुम ग्रुप ने युद्ध के दौरान यूक्रेन को जरूरी मानवीय सहायता दी थी। इस हमले में कंपनी को लगभग 25 मिलियन डॉलर का नुकसान हुआ है।

यूक्रेन का आरोप है कि रूस अब फार्मास्युटिकल यूनिट्स और जरूरी इंफ्रास्ट्रक्चर को टारगेट कर रहा है। रात के वक्त ईरान निर्मित ‘शहीद’ ड्रोन से हमले इसलिए किए जा रहे हैं ताकि दिन में इंटरसेप्ट होने से बचा जा सके।

*Fortress vs Flair as Mohun Bagan Super Giant lock horns with Bengaluru FC in a blockbuster title clash*

Sports

ISL

Kolkata : Mohun Bagan Super Giant (MBSG) will face Bengaluru FC in the final of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan (VYBK) on April 12, at 7:30 PM IST in a blockbuster winner takes all clash befitting of a much awaited title clash.

Speaking at the pre-match press conference in Kolkata ahead of the final, Mohun Bagan Super Giant Head Coach Jose Molina stressed on the importance of looking forward and not worrying about the past. “I don’t care about what happened in the past. I am trying to do my best for Mohun Bagan Super Giant. We did well to win the League Shield and we are motivated to win the ISL Cup too. I don’t need extra motivation from the fact that we lost the final last year. We are already motivated enough.”

Bengaluru FC Head Coach Gerard Zaragoza, who showed exemplary camaraderie by helping a translate a question for his counterpart Molina, was chuffed about playing the big final in Kolkata. “We are very motivated for the finals and excited for the game. Everything is fine. We are confident and Kolkata is almost like our second home, because we were here for the Durand Cup. We had a good playoffs and we are looking forward to the grand finale.”

His sentiment was echoed by BFC goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, who spoke fondly about his long association with the city. “As you know, my journey as a professional footballer started here and I was very lucky to be getting opportunities to play matches from the beginning. I am grateful for the journey. If you get an opportunity to play big games, big finals, in front of big crowds as a player, it’s a great experience and I am lucky to be here for the match in Kolkata.” Gurpreet also reserved some special praise for the opponents, saying, “Mohun Bagan Super Giant have been the standout team this season and there is no denying that, which is why they won the League Shield.”

Mohun Bagan Super Giant captain Subhasish Bose, who Molina jokingly referred to as a striker in light of his goalscoring form in this edition, shed light on the significance of the venue as a local boy. “I am always thrilled to play in front of our home fans. I wish that the fans support us wholeheartedly against Bengaluru FC tomorrow.”

MBSG are the League Shield Winners, whereas Bengaluru FC finished third in the standings and then cruised past the challenges that fronted them in the eliminator and semi-final to make it to the summit clash.

It is a fourth ISL finals appearance for BFC in just 8 seasons, while MBSG have become the first team to reach this stage three successive times. This fixture is an encore of the ISL 2022-23 showdown, when both these sides had clashed in the season finale, with the Kolkata-based team emerging triumphant via penalties in a very tight contest.

They have the chance to repeat that feat in front of a vociferous home crowd this time around, whereas Bengaluru FC will take confidence from their recent form to distort MBSG’s record of staying unbeaten at home thus far in the current campaign.
