Bakery owner of 'Jain bakeries and confectionaries' in Chennai's Mahalakshmi Street in T Nagar, has been arrested for an advertisement of his store which read "Made by Jains on orders, No Muslim staffs".

On Friday, when the woman died a natural death, the family members thought of giving in to her last wish and cremate her, thus, declaring themselves as Hindus completely.

In August, India suspended the autonomy of the state of Kashmir, putting soldiers in its streets and banning foreign journalists from entering. Dexter Filkins, who was working on a story about Narendra Modi, would not be deterred from going. To evade the ban, he sought the help of an Indian journalist, Rana Ayyub. Ayyub had once gone undercover to reveal the ruling party’s ties to sectarian and extrajudicial violence against the Muslim minority. In a conversation recorded last week, Filkins and Ayyub tell the story of how they got into Kashmir and describe the repression and signs of torture that they observed there. Ayyub’s book “Gujarat Files,” about a massacre of Muslims in Gujarat, has made her a target of Hindu nationalists; one of the book’s translators was killed not long ago. She spoke frankly with Filkins about the emotional toll of living in fear of assassination.

I know it's Ramadan, but I've been feeling urges for a few years now and it's just getting more and more now. I always imagine about sex and loving my to-be wife. Right now, I'm studying medicine, so my parents told me it's too early to get married (24 years old). I just don't know really what to do. I prone masturbate to get some relief. What should I do?

The minister called out Lebanese Australians during parliament on Monday, responding to the wry question "Which group of people, from which country, does the minister believe should not have been allowed into Australia?"
