Vishnu Manchu on Tiger Shroff shooting incident: No one should have to fear for their safety!

Digital Desk | Hyderabad, Oct 19 (IANS) Expressing gratitude to God for the safety of Bollywood star Tiger Shroff, who narrowly escaped an attempt on his life on Sunday, Telugu actor and producer Vishnu Manchu has now said that no one should have to fear for their safety while going about their work or living their life. Taking to his X timeline to express his thoughts on the dastardly attack on the young actor by three assailants, the Telugu actor said, Grateful to God that @iTIGERSHROFF is safe. Wishing him strength and praying for his speedy recovery. No one should have to fear for their safety while going about their work or living their life. Incidents like these affect not only the person involved, but their family and the entire film fraternity. Vishnu Manchu went on to add, Being in the public eye should never mean living in fear. I hope there is some kind of respite. Har Har Mahadev. Actress Divya Spandana too reacted strongly to the news on the attempt made on the Bollywood actor's life. She wrote, Relieved Tiger is safe, and wishing a quick recovery to his driver and the autorickshaw driver who were hurt. The actress further said, 7pm, a busy road, no masks, and the shooters are so young! They aren't afraid of being caught because they're disposable. The people giving the orders face no risk at all. We've seen this before in Juhu, again and again. Each time the shooters are arrested and the network carries on. Divya posed two questions in the wake of the incident. She said,Two questions need answers-how are gangs still operating from inside jails, and why are so many young men with no prospects willing to pick up a gun for a small fee and a few minutes of fame online? Until we fix both, we're only treating the symptom. Bollywood is mum. So much fear and panic. Meanwhile, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday issued a stern warning to criminal syndicates following the shocking attack on Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff. Dismissing the perpetrators as cowards hiding behind remote communication networks, the Chief Minister asserted that the Mumbai Police would completely dismantle the international tentacles of these criminal gangs.

Ramdas Athawale condemns attack on Tiger Shroff, says such incidents in Mumbai 'not right'

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 19 (IANS) Union Minister Ramdas Athawale on Monday condemned the firing incident involving Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff in Mumbai, describing such attacks as completely unacceptable and urging people not to politicise the matter. Speaking to IANS, Athawale said Shroff, son of actor Jackie Shroff, was an actor and athlete who had gone to play football when three unidentified persons allegedly opened fire at his vehicle. He said the actor escaped unhurt, while his caretaker and driver sustained injuries. Tiger Shroff, who is Jackie Shroff's son, is an actor and an athlete. When they went to play football, three unidentified people came and fired at their vehicle. Nothing happened to him, though the driver sustained injuries but was not seriously hurt. However, this is not a good thing. I feel that such attacks happening in Mumbai are not right, Athawale said. He added that Maharashtra Chief Minister had issued instructions to apprehend those responsible and expressed confidence that the accused would be arrested. The commitment of our government is to ensure that those who carried out this attack are caught. There is no need to politicise this issue, he said. Athawale further said that members of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang were behind such incidents and claimed that the attack was linked to Shroff's association with films featuring actor Salman Khan. The Bishnoi gang is constantly carrying out such attacks. Although Bishnoi is inside, his associates attacked him because he works in Salman Khan's films. I feel this is not right. Salman Khan is a big actor and has given work to many people. Carrying out such attacks in this manner is completely wrong, he added. Bihar Minister Ram Kripal Yadav also condemned the incident, calling it extremely unfortunate and a matter of concern. He said the criminals involved must be apprehended and strict action taken against them. Yesterday, Tiger Shroff, a well-known Bollywood actor, was shot at, but he narrowly escaped unharmed. This is an extremely unfortunate incident and certainly a matter of concern. The criminals involved must be apprehended, and the government must ensure strict action against those responsible for the attack. The government will also make efforts to prevent such incidents from recurring in the future, he said. BJP leader Ram Kadam said, The attack on talented actor Tiger Shroff is highly condemnable. The Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis, immediately spoke to the Mumbai Police Commissioner. The attackers should be caught immediately. What was the reason behind the attack? Who are the masterminds behind threatening and terrifying actors? All these things will be investigated by the Mumbai Police. We will not tolerate this kind of attack. Whatever criminal elements are involved will be behind bars. Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde himself immediately met Tiger Shroff on behalf of the government. Congress leader Riyaz also condemned the attack, stressing the need to maintain peace and harmony and ensure security for people associated with the film industry. Bollywood is a symbol of great events, achievements and powerful messages. But now, Bollywood is under threat. The present Maharashtra government must take responsibility for this unwanted incident. Every actor and actress should receive protection and security and be able to carry out their professional activities without fear, he said. Meanwhile, Mumbai's Juhu Police have registered a case against three unidentified persons in connection with the firing incident involving Shroff. His caretaker and driver, Firdos Ibrahim Baloch, sustained injuries in the incident. The FIR has been registered under Sections 109(1) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), along with relevant provisions of the Arms Act. Police are investigating the incident to identify and apprehend the assailants and establish the roles of others suspected of involvement. According to the complaint, the incident occurred at around 7 p.m. on October 18, when Shroff was returning by car after playing football. Two unidentified assailants opened fire at the vehicle with pistols, injuring Baloch. Another person in the area was also hit by a bullet, police said. The FIR stated that 47-year-old Baloch had been working as Shroff's caretaker for the past 28 years and also drove for the actor whenever required. On October 18, at around 7 p.m., Shroff and Baloch left the M.M. Matrix Gym in Santacruz West in a car and proceeded to the grounds of Jamnabai Narsee International School in Vile Parle West to play football.

Tiger Shroff attack: CM Fadnavis vows action, says Mumbai Police will dismantle gangs operating from abroad

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 19 (IANS) Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday issued a stern warning to criminal syndicates following the shocking attack on Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff. Dismissing the perpetrators as cowards hiding behind remote communication networks, the Chief Minister asserted that the Mumbai Police will completely dismantle the international tentacles of these criminal gangs. Emphasising the professional calibre of the city's law enforcement, CM Fadnavis stated that no one will be permitted to openly challenge the Mumbai Police or threaten public safety. Labelling the culprits as cowardly proxies who operate from hidden locations, he declared that their plots will be thoroughly neutralised. Acknowledging that the threats originate from outside Maharashtra and beyond national borders, CM Fadnavis confirmed that the state machinery is actively coordinating with central intelligence agencies to root out the entire network. The police will find the accused, and their masterminds have also been found. Therefore, I can say with certainty that such incidents will not be tolerated. The Mumbai Police will definitely track down the accused. No one can openly challenge the police, said CM Fadnavis. These are cowardly people. They hide somewhere and boast from there. They don't have the courage. These are kind of hired people, and those who operate based on them, CM Fadnavis said. The challenge the police definitely face in this is that they do not operate from Maharashtra; they operate from outside the country. By contacting the Central government agencies, the Mumbai Police will annihilate these gangs operating from outside Maharashtra and the country, he added. He noted that the police have already mapped crucial trails and identified key operatives linked to the assault. CM Fadnavis said that public safety -- for both celebrities and ordinary citizens -- remains its paramount priority. With multiple specialised police teams deployed to probe the shooting, he added that the government has made it clear that local conspirators and international masterminds alike will face the full might of the law. Earlier, Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde stated that the attack on actor Tiger Shroff was extremely unfortunate, and he fortunately survived it. He mentioned that following the attack, Shroff's entire family is currently in a state of terror and anxiety, prompting him to personally visit them to check on his health. The Deputy CM noted that despite having no disputes or quarrels with anyone, such a life-threatening attack on a young actor has left the Shroff family, especially his mother, Ayesha Shroff, under severe mental stress. Following the incident, Mumbai Police have taken serious cognisance of the matter, with the Police Commissioner forming a special team to track down the culprits. Deputy CM Shinde, who visited the Tiger Shroff at his residence and inquired about his health, stated that these criminals will be apprehended immediately and strict action will be taken against them. Additionally, he mentioned that instructions have been given to the Mumbai Police Commissioner to review the security of all artists and actors in the film industry. Addressing recent incidents of celebrities being threatened by the Bishnoi gang or other gangs, Shinde asserted, The terror of any gang or attempts to threaten celebrities in Mumbai or Maharashtra will not be tolerated. Anyone attempting to do so will be given a fitting reply by the police, he said. Recalling how the police completely crushed Mumbai's gang wars through strict action in the 1990s, Dy CM Shinde warned that anyone attempting to create terror through similar bullying today will not be spared. The security of ordinary citizens and celebrities is the top priority of the government. Artists in the film industry have no reason to panic following such incidents, said Dy CM Shinde. He appealed to people that anyone receiving threat calls or messages from such gangs should immediately contact the Mumbai Police, assuring that the government stands firmly behind the artists.

Pahalgam celebrates Sir Syed Ahmad Khans 209th birth anniversary

Pahalgam, Oct 17: The Himalayan Welfare Organization (HWO), Jammu & Kashmir, celebrated the 209th birth anniversary of the legendary educationist, social reformer, and visionary Sir Syed Ahmad Khan in Pahalgam on Saturday with great enthusiasm and a renewed commitment to the cause of education. The significant gathering witnessed the enthusiastic participation of scholars, academicians, writers, intellectuals, social activists, civil society members, community representatives, and stakeholders from diverse fields of life. Organised in the picturesque surroundings of Pahalgam, the programme brought together people from different backgrounds, including both Aligs and non-Aligs, reaffirming the belief that Sir Syed Ahmad Khans educational vision transcends institutional and social boundaries and belongs to humanity as a whole. The participants paid rich tributes to Sir Syed Ahmad Khan, whose pioneering efforts towards modern education, scientific thinking, and social reform continue to inspire generations. His enduring legacy, particularly the educational movement that led to the establishment of Aligarh Muslim University (AMU), remains a powerful source of inspiration for those working towards educational advancement and social transformation. One of the most poignant moments of the programme was the heartfelt remembrance of Dr. Zamir Ahmad Bhat Sahib, a distinguished son of the Lidder Valley and a dedicated educationist whose contributions to education and the welfare of the region will always be remembered with respect and gratitude. Dr. Zamir Ahmad Bhat passed away on January 27, 2026, following a prolonged illness. The gathering offered prayers for the eternal peace of his departed soul and paid tribute to his dedication, services, and lasting contribution to society. A founding member of Himalayan Welfare OrganizationHWO J&K, Dr. Zamir Ahmad Bhat played a significant role in the organisations journey and remained deeply committed to educational advancement and social welfare. His life and work continue to inspire those who believe that education is the most powerful instrument of positive change. The programme served as a meaningful tribute to his memory, reaffirming the participants resolve to carry forward the educational ideals he cherished and the mission championed by Sir Syed Ahmad Khan. A major highlight of the event was the adoption of the Pahalgam Resolution, which received the support of a majority of the participants. The resolution made a strong appeal to the Government of India, the Ministry of Education, Aligarh Muslim University, and the Government of Jammu & Kashmir to consider establishing an AMU campus in the Kashmir Division. The participants emphasised the need to expand access to quality higher education and create greater academic opportunities for the youth of the region. They observed that an AMU campus in Kashmir could help students pursue higher studies closer to home, ease the financial and geographical challenges faced by families, and promote academic excellence, research, innovation, and inclusive development. Referring to AMUs existing educational outreach through its centres in Murshidabad, West Bengal; Malappuram, Kerala; and Kishanganj, Bihar, the gathering expressed hope that a similar initiative in Kashmir would benefit students across the region and strengthen the educational landscape of Jammu & Kashmir. The resolution called upon the concerned authorities to give the proposal serious consideration in the larger public interest and in view of the educational aspirations of the people. It was further resolved that the Pahalgam Resolution would be formally communicated to the relevant authorities and stakeholders for their consideration and necessary action. Himalayan Welfare OrganizationHWO J&K, with the support of Sarhad, Pune, Maharashtra, reiterated its commitment to pursuing this educational initiative through constructive advocacy, institutional engagement, and sustained efforts. Another significant feature of the programme was the presentation of the Himalayan Green Awards 2026, organised by Himalayan Welfare OrganizationHWO J&K. This year, 16 individuals and institutions were honoured for their commendable contributions to the field of education. The awardees were recognised for their dedication, achievements, and efforts to improve educational opportunities and contribute to the academic and social development of the region. In a deeply meaningful gesture, the Himalayan Green Awards 2026 were dedicated to the loving memory of Dr. Zamir Ahmad Bhat Sahib, honouring his commitment to education and his invaluable service to society. Through this dedication, HWO J&K sought to keep his vision and values alive while inspiring educators, institutions, social workers, and future generations to continue working for educational progress and social betterment. The awards also reaffirmed the organisations longstanding commitment to recognising individuals and institutions whose work creates a meaningful and lasting impact on society. The enthusiastic participation of both Aligs and non-Aligs was a defining feature of the gathering. By bringing together people from diverse educational, intellectual, professional, and social backgrounds, HWO J&K sought to emphasise that Sir Syed Ahmad Khans mission is not confined to any particular institution or community. His vision of education, rational thinking, social reform, and human progress remains relevant to all sections of society. The gathering provided a common platform for people from different walks of life to reflect on his legacy and collectively explore ways to advance educational opportunities in Jammu & Kashmir. The programme concluded with a renewed commitment to advancing Sir Syed Ahmad Khans educational ideals, promoting educational awareness, recognising outstanding contributions, and working towards a brighter future for the younger generation. The event was more than a commemorative celebration; it became a platform for remembrance, recognition, dialogue, and collective action. The adoption of the Pahalgam Resolution and the presentation of the Himalayan Green Awards 2026 reflected a shared determination to strengthen the educational landscape of Jammu & Kashmir. The organisers expressed their sincere gratitude to all participating scholars, academicians, writers, intellectuals, award recipients, stakeholders, civil society members, social activists, community representatives, and supporters from various walks of life whose participation contributed to the success of the programme. The central message emerging from the gathering was clear: education is the foundation of progress, the remembrance of great personalities keeps their legacies alive, and collective efforts can turn theeducational aspirations of a region into reality.
