Many Pakistan 'persecuted' minorities have not heard of India's CAA

IndiaTimes Friday, 15 March 2024
CAA, a hot-button topic in India, is meant to grant citizenship to minority Hindus, Parsis, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains and Christians who fled persecution in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh before Dec 31, 2014. Over the last two decades, dozens of Pakistani Hindu refugees have trooped to India in the face of socio-political and religious tensions that left them feeling vulnerable in the Muslim-majority country.

The Bannu military cantonment in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, located over 330 km east of Islamabad, came under a severe attack early on Monday (July 15).

India Vs Australia T20 World Cup: Men In Blue Ready To Take On Arch Rival Australia | Pitch Battle

The highly anticipated Super 8 match between India and Australia in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 will take place on June 24 at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St Lucia at 8 p.m. IST. This match is crucial for India, as a win will keep their unbeaten streak and potentially knock Australia out of the tournament, offering a chance for revenge after Australia's victory in the 2023 ODI World Cup final. On November 19, 2023, Australia defeated India at Narendra Modi Stadium, leaving Indian fans and legends Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in tears. If India wins this match, Australia will be left with two points from three games and will have to rely on Bangladesh defeating Afghanistan to advance to the semifinals.
