Washington: Amid intensified war in the Middle East, a report on Tuesday claimed that the Pentagon spent $5.6 billion worth of munitions within the first 48 hours of its military assault on Iran.

For most of us, talking about our own worth feels less like a business transaction and more like we’re asking for a…

No-confidence motion against Speaker Om Birla admitted in Lok Sabha

In a historic move, the Lok Sabha on Tuesday admitted a resolution for the removal of Speaker Om Birla after more than 50 members stood in support, meeting the constitutional threshold for the motion to proceed.

The motion, which bears the signatures of 118 Opposition MPs, stems from allegations of "partisan" behaviour by the Chair. The primary grievance cited is that the Leader of the Opposition, Rahul Gandhi, was repeatedly prevented…

Katie Leung doesn’t want to go back to ‘Harry Potter’ days

"Harry Potter" star Katie Leung recently admitted she has no desire to return to those days. Debuting as Cho Chang in 2005 with "Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire, Leung felt she lacked a strong sense of self and was overly susceptible to external influence. While she later appeared in four films, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix", "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2", she now views that period as one of personal uncertainty rather than nostalgia. "I was so young at the time, and…
