The Indian High Commission in Ottawa has written to the Canadian authorities after receiving complaints from leaders of Hindu community about 'disrespectful' depiction of their gods on the poster of a film showcased as part of a film festival in Toronto. 
A statement issued by the High Commission said that they have urged Canadian officials to organisers of the event to withdraw all provocative material. 
The poster in question is of the the film 'Kaali' by Toronto-based filmmaker Leena Manimekalai. It shows Goddess Kalli smoking and holding an LGBTQ flag and has led to a social media storm with the hashtag 'Arrest Leena Manimekalai'. 
In response to the attacks, the Toronto-based director hit back to say she was willing to pay with her life.
"I have nothing to lose. Till the time I live, I wish to live with a voice that speaks what I believe without fear. If the price for that is my life, it can be given," Manimekalai wrote in a Twitter post in Tamil in response to an article on the controversy.
The Madurai-born filmmaker had shared the poster of "Kaali" on the microblogging site on Saturday and said the film was part of the 'Rhythms of Canada' segment at the Aga Khan Museum in Toronto.
Manimekalai also urged people to watch the film to understand the context behind the poster.

A man from Bengaluru is garnering many thumbs ups on social media with his &lsquo;in the box&rsquo; idea of sending&nbsp; job applications.

NASA released a picture of a 'globular cluster' that contains thousands, if not millions of glittering stars. The Hubble Space Telescope caputred the image of the globular cluster NGC 6569 in the Sagitarrius constellation. 
Globular clusters are stable and tightly bound groups that contain tens of thousands to millions of stars. They are bound together in a tight gravitational bond and are usually much larger than open clusters. The strong gravitational bond between the stars gives them the speherical shape hence the name 'globular'. 
Globular clusters usually contain older, redder stars more than in open clusters. Redder stars in open clusters usually disperse before they become old. Strong gravity also provides stability in globular clusters resulting in a longer life span, allowing stars to reach billions of years of age. 
Star clusters of all kind are of equal and great interest to astronomers because the constituent stars would have approximately been formed at the same time and locations having similar internal compositions. Thus the clusters offer useful insights into the formation and evolution of stars. However, studying individual stars within globular clusters is not possible because of their tightly-wound shape. 
The new image from Hubble comes from an investigation of globular clusters which lay close to the centre of the Milky Way galaxy. Previous studies did not venture into this because the dusty centre of the galaxy blocks out light from the clusters and also alters the colours of the stars within them. A star's colour helps astronmers determind its age, composition and temperature. 
The scientists who made these observations combined information from Hubble with data from astronomical archives, which allowed them to measure the ages of globular clusters like NGC 6569. Their research also helped give insights into the structure and density of globular clusters towards the centre of the Milky Way.

The Jammu and Kashmir unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday denied links between the saffron party and the top Lashkr-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist Talib Hussain apprehended in Jammu and Kashmir.

Zee TV news anchor Rohit Ranjan was arrested by the UP police in connection with the airing of an alleged 'misleading' news over a statement of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

Zee News' Rohit Ranjan arrested for airing Rahul Gandhi's 'doctored' video

Zee TV news anchor Rohit Ranjan was arrested by the Uttar Pradesh police in connection with the airing of an alleged 'misleading' news over a statement of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. High drama unfolded at the scribe's residence as cops from UP and Chhattisgarh tussled over his arrest. 

Zee TV news anchor Rohit Ranjan was arrested by the UP police for airing an alleged 'misleading' news over a statement of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

High drama unfolded at the residence of ZEE TV news anchor Rohit Ranjan in Uttar Pradesh's (UP) Ghaziabad on Tuesday when a team of Raipur police from Chhattisgarh tried to arrest the journalist. The cops acted on an FIR filed against him for airing alleged 'misleading' news concerning Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.&nbsp;
However, the Raipur police were obstructed by their UP counterparts who eventually arrested Ranjan.
A case was registered against Ranjan and others of the Zee News on Sunday for presenting Gandhi's remarks on vandalism at his office in his constituency Wayanad as his statement on the accused in the Udaipur tailor murder case.
The FIR also accused them of promoting enmity between different groups and outraging religious feelings of people. It was based on the complaint of Congress MLA Devendra Yadav, Raipur Senior Superintendent of Police Prashant Agrawal told PTI.
A team was constituted to investigate the case and it was sent to Ghaziabad to arrest the accused, he added.
&ldquo;Complying with the due process of law, the Raipur police team reached the residence of the accused in Ghaziabad this morning for execution of the warrant issued by the competent court in the case. After taking the accused into custody, the team was completing the procedure of arrest. Meanwhile, the local police (Uttar Pradesh police) forcefully took the accused along with them and obstructed the procedure despite the Raipur police showing the warrant,&rdquo; Agrawal said.
MLA Yadav in his complaint alleged that on July 1, a video, in which Rahul Gandhi described those attacking his Wayanad office as children and said he had no ill-will against them, was &ldquo;mischievously&rdquo; used by a TV channel to suggest he was forgiving the killers of Udaipur tailor Kanhaiya Lal.
The complainant accused the director and chairman of Zee News, its Chief Executive Officer, and anchor Rohit Ranjan of conspiring to spread fabricated and fake news against Gandhi in a bid to incite communal riots and disturb social harmony, the police official said.
Ranjan had earlier apologised for the same.&nbsp;
On Tuesday morning, Ranjan tweeted, &ldquo;without informing the local police, Chhattisgarh Police was standing outside my house to arrest me. Is this legally correct?&rdquo;
The Raipur police responded with a tweet, &ldquo;There is no such rule to inform. Still, now they are informed. The police team has shown you the court&rsquo;s warrant of arrest. You should in fact cooperate, join in the investigation and put your defence in court.&rdquo;

The enforcement department conducted searches across more than 40 locations of Chinese mobile manufacturers including Vivo and other firms, in relation to the violation of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). 
According to reports, the raids were going on at various premises in Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar and a few southern states. 
This is the second big case that the ED has registered against a Chinese company. Earlier it had booked Chinese mobile manufacturer Xiaomi, for allegedly making illegal foreign remittances in violation of the Foreign Exchange Management Act. 
The scrutiny against Chinese firms tightened after tensions at the border between the two countries in 2020, leading to multiple rounds of talks. More than 200 mobile apps, including TikTok, have been banned since then.
