Salman Khan cleared of all charges in chinkara, blackbuck poaching cases
Jodhpur, July 25 (ANI): In a massive relief for Salman Khan, the Rajasthan High Court on Monday acquitted the Bollywood star in both the 1998 chinkara and blackbuck poaching cases. Khan was reportedly not present in court when the verdict was announced. According to reports, there were two possible outcomes ahead of the hearing today in which one was that Khan could have walked free and the sentence could have been lowered from five years and the second one was that if Salman was convicted, a warrant would have been issued and he could have been sent to jail. Khan had earlier appealed before the High Court challenging the lower court's verdict that had handed him one and five years' imprisonment in the two separate cases of poaching. Khan and seven others are accused of killing a blackbuck and chinkara in two separate incidents. One of the animals was killed at Bhawad on the outskirts of Jodhpur on September 26, 1998, and the other at Ghoda Farms on September 28, 1998. At that time, they were shooting for the film "Hum Sath Sath Hain". (ANI)

“Govt must clarify LPG reserves, supply timelines to public

"The government should clarify - what is the amount of reserves in our country presently, how much is left, how much can be consumed over how many days, and by when are they expecting that the LPG supply would be normalised. I believe the government is having talks; the people of this nation also need to be told about the current situation. If there is a crisis of energy, then by when the government plans to resolve it should also be clarified to the people, especially to the common man," he said.
