📜 Full News Report

Singapore | September 19, 2025
India’s legendary singer, composer, and actor Zubeen Garg has passed away today in a tragic accident in Singapore. He was 52 years old.

According to reports, Zubeen was in Singapore to attend the North East Festival and had gone scuba diving during his leisure time. He met with an unfortunate accident underwater and was rushed to Singapore General Hospital. Despite the doctors' efforts, he could not be revived due to cardiac arrest.

The hospital confirmed his passing later in the evening.

💔 An Irreplaceable Loss in the Music World

Zubeen Garg was more than a singer — he was the voice of Assam and a bridge between regional and mainstream Indian music. He sang in multiple languages including Assamese, Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, and Telugu.

His breakout Bollywood moment came in 2006 with the chartbuster:
🎵 "Ya Ali" from the film Gangster.
This song became a national sensation and introduced his soulful voice to millions.

Apart from singing, Zubeen was a poet, actor, and a passionate cultural activist who worked tirelessly to promote Assamese language and heritage.

🌹 Heartfelt Tribute
You sang "Ya Ali" —
and we listened, mesmerized.
In your voice, we heard pain, love, longing —
each note touching our souls.

Today, you are no more,
but your melodies will echo in our hearts forever.
The skies of Assam are silent today,
yet your music will play on for eternity.

Zubeen Da, you were a storm,
and we will live through your songs,
cry through your words —
and softly whisper…
“Ya Ali, Balam Ishq Maula…”
You are immortal.

🙏 Final Salute

Zubeen Garg wasn’t just an artist — he was an emotion, a movement.
Today, Assam, Bengal, and millions of music lovers across the world mourn the loss of a voice that was both fierce and fragile.

His music will guide us, his voice will comfort us —
even in silence.

🕯️ Goodbye Zubeen Da. Your songs will live forever.

#🚨 Is India playing Pakistan, forgetting the blood of Pahalgam?

India–Pakistan face-off in Asia Cup cricket; BJP leader Amit Shah's son and ICC chairman Jay Shah's role sparks intense controversy

Report:

The India–Pakistan clash in the Asia Cup cricket has sparked fresh controversy. In April 2025, a terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir, claimed the lives of 26 innocent Indians. Following this attack, public opinion in India has been firmly against Pakistan. From ordinary citizens to political circles, the incident has drawn strong reactions.

Yet, ICC chairman Jay Shah, who is BJP leader Amit Shah's son and former secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), has taken a stance in favor of playing against Pakistan. Many believe that Jay Shah is ignoring the blood of martyrs and making this decision to strengthen his own name and power.

After the Pahalgam attack, BCCI repeatedly stated that playing in Pakistan is not possible due to security and public sentiment. The Asia Cup is being held in safe countries/venues, not in Pakistan. Nevertheless, as ICC chairman, Jay Shah's leadership in organizing the tournament has raised serious questions among the Indian public.

Opposition political groups strongly criticize Jay Shah. They argue that he is overlooking the sacrifices of martyrs and arranging a match with Pakistan for personal or political gain. The controversy is no longer confined to cricket administration alone; it is being seen by the public as an insult to the nation's pride and the memory of the martyrs.

Even though the Asia Cup match is taking place, the center of controversy remains BJP leader Amit Shah's son and Jay Shah. By forgetting the blood of Pahalgam martyrs, is India being forced to play for Jay Shah's personal gain and power—this question now resonates strongly in public discourse.

Holocaust to Gaza
In the 1940s, under Adolf Hi**er, the Holocaust became one of humanity’s darkest tragedies. Millions of Jews, along with Roma, the disabled, and others, were forced into ghettos, camps, and gas chambers. Families were torn apart. Children starved. Hope was extinguished in the shadow of hatred. The world remembers this as genocide.

Decades later, another name is spoken with grief: Gaza.
Here, modern war leaves its own scars. Bombings reduce homes to rubble, families mourn loved ones, and children wake in fear. Survival is a daily struggle, and the cries of civilians rise above the ruins.

Though different in time, place, and scale, both stories share the language of suffering.
In the Holocaust, people pleaded for life as the world looked on. In Gaza, civilians plead for peace while the world debates.

The Holocaust taught humanity the words “Never Again.” Yet images from Gaza force the question — have we truly learned?

From Auschwitz to Gaza, the lesson remains: hatred destroys, war consumes, and humanity must choose compassion over cruelty.

Today's experience is money. This afternoon, I suddenly received an SMS on my mobile. I looked and saw.. "The government has given 75 lakhs to my account." My heart was filled with happiness. I left the house and shouted to everyone in the house.... "Listen everyone, the day has changed, 75 lakhs has come to my account."

My wife came out of the house and said, "What's so happy about that, 75 lakhs has also been given to my account. Look at this message."

I was a little surprised, I thought I would go and tell everyone around. The person next to my house told me, "Don't be too excited, 75 lakhs has also been deposited in our account." My happiness was gone.

I thought I would go and get some sweets from the market. When I went to the market, I saw that the shop was closed. I asked someone nearby, "Hey brother, why is this sweet shop closed?" He said, "What does the sweet shop owner need to do anymore. 75 lakhs has come to his account."

So I thought I'd go to New Market and get something from there. What! No shops are open. They have 75 lakhs in their accounts.....

I was very hungry and thought the shops are closed here. I'm going ahead, I can eat in a good hotel and be satisfied. The further I go, the more I see empty. There's not even the person standing outside the hotel to welcome the customer, who greets them with a salaam, there's no security at the shopping mall. Everyone's accounts have 75 lakhs.

There's no one in the market.

There's no vegetable seller, no tea seller, no sarabat seller, no fast food seller. Everything is closed. Everyone's address is now to withdraw 75 lakhs from the bank. Because now no one needs to work, everyone has 75 lakhs.

A friend of mine called and said, "I quit my job, I have 75 lakh taka in my account."

My elder brother called and said, "I have closed my art school."

"My younger sister around me is no longer going to school."

"A friend of mine has stopped giving tuition."

"The girl named Nisha is also not going to college."

"Sameer is not looking for a job anymore."

"Workers no longer go to factories, all factories are closed."

Everyone has 75 lakh taka in their accounts. Everyone is rich now.

Everyone is composing music, singing, dancing.....

I went to the field in the afternoon for a walk, all the farmers have left work and gone home. No one is in the field. Now they no longer need to work in the sun and rain. They have all become rich. Everyone has 75 lakh taka in their accounts.

After 7 days, I saw people crying because of hunger. Because, no one is harvesting from the fields, all the shops are closed, hotels, All medical facilities are closed. People are getting sick and are dying. Because, there is no food, no doctor. Animals are also dying because they cannot eat. There is no green grass in the land, no golden crops. Children are crying because of hunger, because the cowherd is not giving milk.
Sayan
People are now running around with handfuls of money. They are walking on the streets with money in their pockets. People are crying with lakhs of taka in their hands and saying, "Hey brother, take 10 thousand taka, give me 200 grams of milk. The child has not eaten for two days.

People are dying because they do not eat after 10 days. Some people are walking on the streets with bags of money. Here, brother, take 5 lakh taka, "Give me 5 kg of rice. I have not eaten for 10 days."

All the markets and markets have closed. No one has vegetables or food. Only images of death are seen everywhere.
I am also running around with my 75 lakh rupees, take it brother, take 75 lakhs, still give me some food".

Who will take whose money, no one has any food. People are rushing towards people like ferocious lions. It seems that people will eat people.

A stranger chased me, saying that he would chew me up.
I am running away. I am a hungry person, how much longer will I run?

I fell and stumbled. ..I screamed out loud.....

My wife then jumped up from her sleep and said "What happened to you? It is morning, wake up, come with tears in your eyes. Why were you shouting, "Save me, save me?" Were you having a bad dream?"

I said, "No, not bad, a good day dream. "
We are poor, but at home "there is two handfuls of food"
"there is water for thirst"
"children are playing"
"animals are eating grass in the field"
"there is a crowd in the shop"
"vehicles are moving"
"people are gathering"
"flowers are blooming in the garden"
Nature is smiling.....

If God wanted, he could have given everyone wealth and wealth. He could have given everyone happiness and peace. There is inequality in people's physical, mental and their environment. So the reality is that the world still exists and will exist because there is inequality between rich and poor.

Mumbai Train Blast 2006:::: After 19 years, 2 judges of the Bombay High Court also wrote in their verdict that there was no blast. The train flew, people died... but there is no 'evidence' in the judicial system. They were imprisoned for 19 years without any charges because of their Muslim names. And the real criminals were released. The blasts on July 11, 2006, had disrupted Mumbai's lifeline, the local train. Seven explosions on seven trains within 11 minutes, before and after 6:30 pm during office hours. 209 people were killed. 714 were injured. Along with the Mumbai attacks of 1993 and 2008, it was one of the biggest terrorist attacks in the heart of the commercial city. However, the bench of Justice Anil Kilo and Justice Shyam Chandak of the Bombay High Court had to say, "It seems there was no blast." And where there was no explosion, how can the accused be punished in the blast? That is why all twelve accused were acquitted.

In 2015, the anti-terrorism court had ordered the death penalty for 5 of these 12 people and life imprisonment for 7 others. How did that verdict change radically when it reached the High Court? Various questions filled my mind. I was shocked when I read the copy of the verdict. The Maharashtra Police's Anti-Terrorist Squad took over the investigation of the incident immediately after the sabotage. One of the most efficient police forces in the country is the Maharashtra ATS. The Bombay High Court's observation regarding the investigation of that ATS is that there was no investigation. It was a child's play. First, the police fabricated a story. Later, they showed evidence to prove it.

Where and how was there negligence in the investigation? Observations of the judges - First, the police failed to identify and arrest the main accused in the blast. To cover up that failure, someone who cannot be called the main accused at all has been presented as the main accused. Secondly, there is room for questioning the statements of the witnesses and their credibility. The government prosecutor could not answer the questions and doubts of the court. The way the eyewitnesses identified the accused seems to have been fabricated. Thirdly, the court felt that the statements given by the accused confessing to their guilt were forcibly obtained. Because, different accused gave different information in one incident. The investigating officers did not even try to verify and compare them. It did not even occur to them that this inconsistency would be caught before the court. Point number four is the most important. The judges wrote, 100 days after the sabotage, an eyewitness taxi driver gave a statement to the police about the two accused. I am surprised to see that a taxi driver can remember the faces of two passengers so accurately even after 100 days. Such memory cannot be possessed by humans. Only a policeman can do this. And number five, the division bench has written in the verdict that from collecting explosives to making bombs. From planting bombs in the train, how did the accused enter the station with bombs? The Anti-Terrorist Squad could not give a credible answer to any question.

The court reminded that various items recovered after the explosion, RDX sticks, grenades, pressure cookers filled with explosives – nothing was sealed and preserved as per the rules. After the High Court pointed out all these negligence of the ATS, the finger of accusation is now pointed at the Maharashtra Police and the Devendra Fadnavis administration. Let the police of the whole country see this verdict of the Bombay High Court as an eye opener. If the prosecution cannot file a case, then even if there is a court, the common people will not get justice.

That is why God said that the best creature I have created is man. Ten children lost their lives in His arms Md Bzeek.

Over 40 years ago, Bzeek arrived in the US to study electronic engineering. He married his late wife and became a citizen in 1997. The widower now lives in Los Angeles where he is one of the only foster parents who cares exclusively for terminally ill children. His story made headlines in 2019 when the LA Times ran a story about his work.

“Ten children lost their lives in my arms.”

He was awarded the International Benevolence Award by the Diyanet Foundation and his life has just been made into a documentary directed by Ensar Altay.

“In 1995, we decided to adopt orphans left at hospitals or taken from their families by the state because of violence and pressure” explained Bzeek who was once a marathon runner before he came to America. “The only house that accepts orphans and children who are about to die in Los Angeles is my house. I have dealt with 80 children since 1989. Ten children lost their lives in my arms.”
Safe and loved
The Department of Child Services in LA work closely with Bzeek. “They tell me when children are about to die and ask if I can adopt them. They know that I do not hesitate to accept. If I don’t, they are sent to hospitals and don’t have a family or house. However, when I take them, they feel a family atmosphere. They feel safe and are loved until the end of their lives.”

In many cases, he gives the children names as well as shelter and love. “In the hospital, they give birth, they leave them,” Bzeek said in an interview with the LA hospital. “Their families don’t name them. It comes on the paper: ‘Baby boy,’ ‘Baby girl.’ I name them. I give them names.”

Sophie Keefer works in paediatric palliative care. She recently met with Mohamed and wrote about her experience for the International Children’s Palliative Care Network.

“He was a bear of a man with a long beard and a soft smile.” Sophie wrote. “His foster daughter was propped up on the couch. When Mohamed went to hold this small, fragile, girl he warned me that she occasionally has seizures and if I was holding her while this happened, to just keep holding her and it would quickly pass. I appreciated how calm and matter of fact the conversation was, allowing me to hold her with confidence, prepared for whatever her body would do.

She’d had an encephalocele which meant that at birth part of her brain protruded through an opening in her skull. She cannot see, hear, speak or move. She can, however, feel and respond to touch. When you stroke her gently she relaxes and as you cradle her body, it moves in sync with yours”.Bzeek took in the little girl when she was just seven weeks old. He was told she would only live a few months. Today she is six years old. The county took her from her biological parents. His own biological son Adam (19) was born with the challenges of brittle bones and dwarfism. He has broken almost every bone in his body at some stage.

Bzeek says caring for those who are so ill is a painful process. He knows their time together is precious. “I know it’s heartbreak. I know it’s a lot of work and I know it’s going to hurt me sometimes. You know, I feel sad. But, in my opinion, we should help each other, you know?”

Sophie says that Mohamed cooked for her in his immaculate kitchen and spoke more about religion and the importance it plays in his own life. “I’ve been told that my story has touched others and built their belief in humanity again – that it’s changed their perspective of Muslim-Americans. I like to think of it as true Islam, it is about love and compassion and sympathy for others. If I can help somebody, I have to help.”

For the past four years, Mohammed works with a nurse who comes every day so he can take small breaks, run errands and pray at his mosque. After the LA Times article, he received a lot of media attention. One online commenter called Bzeek the Muslim Mother Teresa, another opened a GoFundMe account on his behalf; he didn’t learn of it until the company contacted him. The donations will be a boost to the $1,600 a month he gets from L.A. County. He plans to put the money toward some essential home improvement, starting with installing air conditioning.

Now, he has his own health problems. Last year doctors told him he had stage-2 colon cancer. In an interview with the LA children’s hospital, he described his reaction to the news. “I had no family with me and I was scared,” he says. “I felt the same what the kids feel. They are alone. If I am 62 and I am scared, what about them?”
