A man and a woman were arrested by the Mumbai Police for allegedly attempting to enter Bollywood actor Salman Khan’s residence this week, police said on Thursday.

The accused, the police added, made separate attempts to enter Galaxy Apartments in Bandra (West) on Tuesday and Wednesday. The man was identified as Jitendra Kumar Singh (23) and the woman, Isha Chhabra (32).

According to the police, Singh, a resident of Chhattisgarh, was initially spotted roaming around Mr Khan’s house at around 9.45am on Tuesday. When a policeman deployed for the actor’s security asked him to leave, the accused smashed his mobile phone on the ground in a fit of rage. 

“That evening, at around 7.15pm, Singh entered Galaxy Apartments by following a car belonging to a person living in the same building. He managed to enter the premises but was caught by the police again. This time, they handed him over to the Bandra police,” an officer said.

During the course of interrogation, Singh said he wanted to meet the actor. He claimed that he tried to sneak in as the police were not allowing him to enter the building, the officer added. 

The Supreme Court discussed whether waqfs are a fundamental part of Islam or a charitable act, as petitioners argued the Waqf Amendment Law violates rights and the government claimed waqfs are not essential to practice of the religion.

A discussion on waqfs – charitable donation to be de-linked from Islam or an integral part of that religion, ‘a dedication to God… for spiritual benefit’, – was a highlight in the Supreme Court Thursday as petitioners concluded arguments saying the Waqf (Amendment) Law violates fundamental rights.

Responding to the government’s argument Wednesday – that while ‘waqf’ is an Islamic concept it is not an essential part of the religion and, therefore, not a fundamental right – senior advocate Kapil Sibal told the court, “Waqf is a dedication to God… for afterlife. Unlike other religions, waqf is a charity to God…”

The court, though, pointed out that ‘religious donation’ isn’t exclusive to Islam; “… in Hinduism there is ‘moksha’,” Chief Justice BR Gavai said. “Charity is a fundamental concept of other religions too…”

And Justice Augustine George Masih, the second judge on the bench, referred to a similar provision in Christianity, and said, “We are all trying to get into ‘heaven’.”

Donald Trump claims credit for averting a potential “nuclear conflict”.

Donald Trump has taken credit for having “stopped a nuclear conflict – a bad one” in the brink of time. Both India and Pakistan have “lots of nuclear weapons”, said the US President, adding that the two nations were going at it “hot and heavy”.

Giving himself a pat on the back, President Trump said it was “my administration that helped broker a full and immediate ceasefire. I think a permanent one”. Both India and Pakistan were “powerful and unwavering”, the US President acknowledged.

“It could have been a bad nuclear war, where millions of people could have been killed,” he said, thanking Vice President Vance and Secretary Rubio for their efforts. “They worked very hard on that,” he said.

Due to the India-Pakistan conflict, many Indian concerts are postponed.

Her Mumbai concert, rescheduled from May 10, will happen soon.

Ghoshal thanked fans on Instagram for their patience and support.

Shreya Ghoshal is one of the most versatile Indian singers in the industry, who can sing in a horde of languages namely Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, Bengali, Telugu, and Marathi. She was also the judge in the last season of Indian Idol along with rapper Badshah and music composer Vishal Dadlani.

Due to the ongoing India-Pakistan conflict, several Indian singers have cancelled or postponed their concerts. Out of respect and in solidarity with the country’s current situation, artists have been taking thoughtful decisions in the entertainment industry.

Shreya Ghoshal’s Mumbai concert was initially planned for May 10, 2025, which had been postponed earlier due to Operation Sindoor.

Even though fans were disappointed, Shreya Ghoshal promised that she will soon be back with the announcement of new dates. She has finally taken to Instagram to share the good news.

New Delhi also asked Turkey to dissuade Pakistan from using terrorism as an instrument of state policy and take credible and verifiable actions against the terror ecosystem that Islamabad and Rawalpindi have harboured for decades.

In a strong message to Turkey over its support to Pakistan in recent times, the Government of India said on Thursday that New Delhi expects Ankara to encourage Pakistan to address the problem of cross-border terrorism emanating from it.

New Delhi also asked Turkey to dissuade Pakistan from using terrorism as an instrument of state policy and take credible and verifiable actions against the terror ecosystem that Islamabad and Rawalpindi have harboured for decades.

As ties between India and Turkey have taken a hit with Ankara’s tilt towards Pakistan after the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam, India made it clear that relations between two countries are built on mutual respect and sensitivities of each other’s concerns.

“We expect Turkey to strongly urge Pakistan to end its support to cross-border terrorism and take credible and verifiable actions against the terror ecosystem it has harbored for decades. Relations are built on the basis of sensitivities to each other’s concerns,” External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said at a weekly press briefing today.

Turkey’s role in Pakistan’s escalations against India, which started with the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam, came under focus during India’s Operation Sindoor response. Besides ideological and moral support to Islamabad, Turkey provided arms and weapons to Pakistan as well.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor on Thursday clarified that his comments on the India-Pakistan conflict were made in a personal capacity, as an “Indian and a proud citizen”, and did not reflect the official stand of the party.

Speaking to reporters, the Lok Sabha MP from Kerala’s Thiruvananthapuram also expressed ignorance over reports that a section of Congress leaders felt he had crossed the “Lakshman Rekha – a metaphor originating in Ramayana, loosely meaning “boundary” – through his repeated comments on the conflict.

“People seem to think I have knowledge on some of these subjects. So they come and ask me my views. And I make it very clear, sometimes explicitly and sometimes implicitly, that I am expressing my personal views as an Indian, as a proud citizen,” Mr Tharoor told reporters. 

Asked about some Congress leaders’ views that he had crossed his limits, he said: “I don’t know where this comes from. I was at a closed door meeting of the Congress Working Committee (CWC). I was there till 6.35pm for the meeting that began at 4.30pm. And I must say that at that time, there was certainly no reference to any of this and no reference to me. If something happened thereafter, I am yet to be informed about it. So when I am informed, I will react to it.”

He added: “I don’t see much point in reacting to something of which there has not been no official communication to me of any kind, nor any discussion that I was a part of.”
