The beloved Tirupati laddus, a symbol of faith for millions of devotees, have come under scrutiny following explosive allegations of adulteration. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu claimed that animal fat was used in the ghee during the previous regime, shaking the trust of worshippers. A Special Investigation Team (SIT) was formed to probe the issue, but the investigation has now been halted as the matter reaches the Supreme Court. As political parties clash, the controversy has stirred emotional responses, leaving the future of the sacred laddus—and the faith of devotees—at stake.

Urdu poetry, the greatest poetry in the world
I have read the poetry of many foreign countries in the world, English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Latin American, etc, as well as the poetry in many Indian languages e.g. Hindi, Bangla, Tamil, Kashmiri, etc. I can venture to say that no poetry in the world expresses the voice of the human heart so powerfully, and with such sophistication ( andaaz-e-bayaan ) as Urdu poetry does. In that sense I regard Urdu poetry as the greatest poetry in the world. What a tragedy that there were, and still are, some bigoted, inane people in India who sought to suppress this great language Urdu in the land of its own birth.

Why I am an optimist about the situation in Pakistan
In Pakistan the real rulers are the army. After the events of 9th May, 2023 ( which many people say were stage managed ), a fascist reign of terror was unleashed by the Pakistan army, and about 14,000 people arrested on trumped up and concocted charges, many beaten and tortured, and then incarcerated in jail where they are still living in inhuman conditions. Some have even ‘disappeared’. The judiciary, headed by that shameless, sold out, toady of the Pakistan Establishment, Chief Justice of Pakistan, Qazi Faez Isa, has become totally servile, and does nothing to protect the liberties of the people, which was its solemn Constitutional duty, and the media has been largely silenced.
