Chennai Super Kings’ IPL 2024 journey came to a heartbreaking end after they lost against Royal Challengers Bengaluru and got knocked out of the tournament. After the elimination of CSK, one question which came in everyone’s mind was about the future of MS Dhoni. The 42-year-old wicketkeeper-batter, who was already battling a knee injury during the season, was speculated to call time on his career if CSK would have won the IPL 2024 title in Chennai. However, RCB spilled water on Dhoni’s dream farewell and currently there’s no confirmation regarding his future.

Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi voted today as the country’s six-week election resumed, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s rivals accusing his government of unjustly targeting them in criminal probes.
PM Modi, 73, remains roundly popular after a decade in office and his ruling BJP is widely expected to win a third term next month after a poll hit by recurrent early summer heatwaves.
His prospects have been further bolstered by several criminal investigations into his opponents, sparking concerns from UN rights chief Volker Turk.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi cast his ballot at a polling station in Delhi, where temperatures were forecast to reach 43 degree Celsius.
A son, grandson, and great-grandson of former prime ministers, Rahul Gandhi paused after voting to take a selfie with his mother Sonia Gandhi, but did not speak to crowds of reporters.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, out on bail to campaign for the ongoing Lok Sabha elections, today sharply reacted to a Pakistan leader after he shared his post on social networking platform ‘X’.
Arvind Kejriwal voted today in the national capital along with his father, wife and children. He also shared a photograph on X – earlier known as Twitter – after casting vote.
“My father, wife and both my children voted. My mother could not come today as she is very ill. I have voted against inflation, and unemployment,” Mr Kejriwal posted.
Pakistan leader Fawad Hussain Chaudhry- quoting Mr Kejriwal’s post – said, “May peace and harmony defeat forces of hate and extremism.”
Responding to this, the Delhi Chief Minister said that instead of interfering in India’s internal matter, Fawad Hussain should rather focus on the poor state of his country.
“We are fully capable of handling our issues. The situation of Pakistan is very poor now, so you should take care of your country,” he said.
