'Apostasy Is Death In Islam, But Bharat Ratna In Hinduism': Anand Ranganathan's Blasts Rahul Gandhi

Anand Ranganathan challenges Rahul Gandhis use of Manusmriti in a wider debate over patriarchy and womens rights. He accepts that the passage describing womens dependence on father, husband and sons is patriarchal. But he argues that Rahul Gandhi is selectively targeting Hindu society while ignoring problems faced by women in other communities. Ranganathan says Manusmriti is a Smriti, not the Vedas, and not a rulebook followed by all Hindus. He also revisits Shah Bano, the Uniform Civil Code debate and Rahul Gandhis remark about Prime Minister Modi allowing Nirmala Sitharaman to respond. His argument is controversial, but the key question is clear: can India reject misogyny across every tradition, or is womens emancipation being turned into selective political messaging? This report separates Ranganathans claims from verified legal history and wider religious interpretation.

UPT20 League: 'He Has Made A Massive Impact', Says Bhuvneshwar Kumar For Ajeet Verma As Lucknow Falcons Seal Playoff Berth

UP T20 League: Lucknow Falcons have officially booked their place in the UP T20 League 2026 playoffs following a hard-fought 24-run victory over the Gaur Gorakhpur Lions in match 26. Played at Kanpurs historic Green Park Stadium, a venue that has hosted 40 international matches, the result marks Lucknow's fifth win in nine games, making them the second franchise after the Meerut Mavericks to advance to the knockout stages. It was a very important win for us to qualify. The first aim of the team has been achieved, stated a highly satisfied Lucknow skipper, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, following the victory. The path to qualification, however, looked incredibly unlikely early in the evening. Opting to bowl first, Lions skipper Shivam Sharma applied immense pressure, delivering a miserly spell of 2/12 in his three overs, including a maiden, to reduce Lucknow to a precarious 51/4 in 8.4 overs. Reflecting on the turbulent start, Bhuvneshwar admitted the team had to severely recalibrate their targets from the dugout. It was very satisfying because we didnt really get the start we wanted, the captain revealed. During the 10-over break, our honest aim was to reach around 100 runs by the 15th over and add another 40 to 50 runs in the final five. Sitting in the dressing room, we thought even 130 to 140 would be a fighting total. What followed was a sensational 109-run partnership off just 64 balls between Ajeet Verma and Kritagya Singh that completely shifted the momentum. Verma smashed an unbeaten 75 off 45 balls, decorated with eight boundaries and three sixes, while Singh delivered a crucial 44 off 31, powering the Falcons to a highly competitive 170/5 in 20 overs. The maturity shown by Ajeet and Kritagya was excellent, Bhuvneshwar noted. That partnership was something we had been lacking in the tournament so far. The way we batted, we did much better than what we had expected. That partnership is the reason we are in this winning position today. The skipper reserved special praise for Verma, whose consistent performances demanded a regular spot. He has made a massive impact. His batting has been so impressive that we had to bring him into the playing XI. It shows that when a youngster performs well, the entire team benefits. Defending 170, Gorakhpur's chase was immediately derailed by Lucknow's Abhinandan Singh, who cleaned up openers Abhay Pratap Singh and Aryan Chaudhary cheaply. The Lions stumbled to 70/5 in 10.3 overs after Akshu Bajwa claimed two wickets and Vipraj Nigam took one. Refusing to surrender, Prince Yadav (49 off 36) and Parth Palawat built a dangerous 56-run stand off 40 balls to revive the chase. With 45 runs needed off the final 18 deliveries, Bhuvneshwar tossed the ball back to Abhinandan for the crucial 18th over. Defending 170, Gorakhpur's chase was immediately derailed by Lucknow's Abhinandan Singh, who cleaned up openers Abhay Pratap Singh and Aryan Chaudhary cheaply. The Lions stumbled to 70/5 in 10.3 overs after Akshu Bajwa claimed two wickets and Vipraj Nigam took one.

'Breaking Muscle Memory Isn't Easy': Karan Sharma On Technical Tweaks Under Pravin Amre

The Kashi Rudras: Kashi Rudras captain Karan Sharma revealed that stepping out of his comfort zone to train under veteran batting coach and former India batter Pravin Amre in Mumbai brought noticeable improvements to his power-hitting and timing, though he admitted that altering years of batting habits was a tough mental and physical challenge. Sharma, who routinely relies on childhood coach Rajan Sachdeva to fine-tune his game, spent ten days with Amre prior to the season to work on subtle technical adjustments in his posture and swing. All of that effort has yielded fruit via Karan leading the run-scoring charts with 298 runs in nine games at an average of 37.25 and strike-rate of 146.8. I work a lot on batting with the help of my childhood coach Rajan Sachdeva sir. I chat a lot about batting with him as hes someone who can understand my batting very well. But before this season, I had a thought about trying something different so I went to Mumbai to work under Pravin Amre sir. I practiced for ten days under him and understood about batting in-depth and what more can I do to improve my batting and work on small things. He helped me a lot in one or two technical points with my batting which he felt that I could improve upon to make my game better. Due to that, I saw the change in myself and my shots and power and began to time the ball better, Sharma told IANS in an exclusive conversation on the sidelines of the league in Kanpur. He also explained that rewiring established batting mechanics required patience from him, as initial struggles were inevitable before the results start showing on the field. In those ten days - I mean, if you change anything in your batting, or something else, it's not easy, obviously. As a batter today, because you are leaving your natural state, and you've been doing one thing for a long time, it's in your muscle memory. So, breaking years of muscle memory, I mean, I don't think it's an easy job, obviously. So, for that one month, there was a bit of a struggle, but after that, I started enjoying batting, and things started making sense. I've planned to go again, to try and go again before the next Ranji Trophy season, and spend some time there and improve because I feel that every batter, if they are not improving, they are somehow going downwards. So, I think as a batter, you have to remain in a phase of constant improvement, he said. Two-time winners Kashi Rudras are currently sitting at number three on the points table with eight points as the race to knockouts tightens up. Addressing how the squad recovered after dropping four games in a row, Sharma revealed the importance of staying positive and process-driven to help the team to come back strongly through a 67-run win over Noida Kings, where he hit a blistering 102 off 51 balls, laced with 11 boundaries and five sixes. It's going well right now. After the way we started, we went down a little in the middle. I think we lost 3 or 4 matches straight. When you win like this, obviously the atmosphere in the dressing room becomes very good. It boosts you up and there was a change of venue - so, it was exciting for us and that led to us thinking that maybe we can do something next. So, the atmosphere in the dressing room is very good right now. When you win, obviously the atmosphere in the team is good. But we saw that time when we were losing, we were still trying to stay positive. The things that are working for us, we should focus on those things. On keeping the team grounded ahead of crucial matches, Sharma insisted that focusing on immediate micro-execution and staying in the present takes precedence over worrying about results. I am a person who believes in the process a lot. So, I try to focus on the things that are needed to win. I try to focus on those things in the team and in my mindset rather than just thinking that we have to win. But how we have to win is more important and what all things we have to do right, even if we have to focus on small things. So, as a person, I try to focus on small things which will ensure us to win games - like small tactics for every batter. I have my own personality like how I bring myself in the present because our game is all about being in the moment. So, I think we keep practicing being in the moment. We try not to go too far or too far back because in the tournament, things are running very fast. I think you are playing 10 matches in 20 days. So, you have to ensure that when you are coming the next day, you are not coming with a win or a loss in the previous game in your mind. So, it is good for me to think like this and my team also has to think like this, he added. Having already led Kashi Rudras to two titles, Sharma signed off by saying that while defending the crown remains the ultimate motivation, executing immediate tactical requirements remains the team's primary focus. So, I think we keep practicing being in the moment. We try not to go too far or too far back because in the tournament, things are running very fast. I think you are playing 10 matches in 20 days. So, you have to ensure that when you are coming the next day, you are not coming with a win or a loss in the previous game in your mind. So, it is good for me to think like this and my team also has to think like this, he added. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories We should focus on the things that I feel are going and on all the small things that will ensure we will do well rather than thinking that after this we will play the finals or this and that will happen. But I think from a team perspective, we should focus on the things that are important at that particular moment and at that particular time. Article Source: IANS
