A bus carrying Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) workers rammed into a truck in Madhya Prdaesh’s Khargone district leaving 39 passengers injured. The accident took place late Sunday night near Kasrawad. The injured were rushed to a district hospital.

Earlier this month, a 19-year-old man collapsed while he was working out on a treadmill and died after suffering from a fatal heart attack. He was undergoing training at a gym located in the Khoda area of Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. The incident, which was caught on camera, went viral and triggered a sense of panic among people across the country as more and more cases of heart ailments - in relatively young people - get reported. Dr Bimal Chhajer, cardiologist, former consultant at AIIMS, and founder of SAAOL Heart Centers, shares valuable insights on preventing heart attacks while using a treadmill. "With the increasing popularity of home workouts and gym routines, it's essential to stay informed about the potential risks and precautions associated with treadmill exercise. Prioritising heart health through informed exercise practices can lead to a healthier and more active lifestyle," the doctor says.

As AAP became the sixth national party in the country, back in Gujarat, some party loyalists wondered if this elite national status was the only objective behind the party’s spirited campaign ahead of the state assembly polls.
Exuding confidence about a good showing in the upcoming assembly polls, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday said that as of now the Congress is certainly winning Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, probably winning Telangana, and there is a "very close" contest in Rajasthan which the party believes it will emerge victorious in. Gandhi also referred to the row over BJP MP Ramesh Bidhuri's derogatory remarks against BSP leader Danish Ali in Lok Sabha, alleging that the BJP indulges in such tactics to distract from the demand for a caste census.
After a seven-year space odyssey, a Nasa capsule successfully landed back on earth at a desert in America's Utah, carrying with it the largest samples of asteroid ever collected by humans.
Scientists are excited about what they will find from studying the samples, as it may give us a better understanding about the formation of our solar system and how Earth became a habitable planet.
