Bought for ₹5.2 Crore by RCB, Yet His Father Still Repays Loans: The Grit-Filled Rise of Mangesh Yadav

Chhindwara:Behind the glitter and glamour of the Indian Premier League lies a story of sacrifice that defines the journey of 23-year-old cricketer Mangesh Yadav, who will don the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) jersey next season after being bought for ₹5.2 crore. His success is not just a personal triumph, but the result of years of relentless struggle by his father, Ram Avadh Yadav, a truck driver who dared to dream big for his son. To support Mangesh’s passion for cricket, Ram Avadh took loans from friends and acquaintances, spending whatever little he earned on training fees, cricket kits, travel, and tournament expenses. Even today, despite his son’s entry into the IPL, he continues to repay those debts. “I still owe money to some people who helped us when we needed it the mos...

Amethi:True success is often born out of struggle, and the life of young cricketer Prashant Veer stands as a shining example of this belief.

Pakistan Pays Heavy Price for Taliban Rift: Trade Halt with Afghanistan Causes $4.5 Billion Loss, Traders Cry Foul

Pakistan’s deteriorating relationship with the Taliban-led Afghan government has begun to exact a severe economic toll, with the suspension of cross-border trade inflicting losses estimated at $4.5 billion, according to Pakistani business bodies. As tensions escalate along the border, Pakistani traders are bearing the brunt of a political and security standoff that shows little sign of easing. The Pakistan–Afghanistan Joint Chamber of Commerce and Industry has warned that the continued closure of border trade routes has pushed Pakistani exporters and transporters into crisis. The situation worsened after Pakistan carried out air strikes in Afghanistan, believing the show of force would pressure the Taliban into acting against the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). Instead, militant attac...

Australian investigators say the duo visited southern Philippines, a region long associated with Islamist extremism, before launching the attack in Sydney. Initially, there was speculation that the attackers were linked to Pakistan, widely regarded as a g...
