SC to continue its hearing on 1995 Hindutva verdict

New Delhi [India], Oct. 26 : The Supreme Court will today continue its hearing on the Hindutva case which deals with electoral malpractices arising out of its 1995 judgment.

During the hearing by the seven judges' Constitutional bench, the apex court on Tuesday said it won't reconsider 1995 judgment which defined Hindutva as "a way of life and not a religion."

The observations came after an on interlocutory application filed by social activist Teesta Setalvad requested the bench to reconsider the 95 judgment.

A seven-judge constitution bench, headed by Chief Justice T S Thakur, said the court will not go into the larger debate as to what is Hindutva or what its meaning is and will not reconsider the 1995 judgment.

BJP best option for UP, not weak SP or BSP

New Delhi [India], Oct. 26 : The president of the Uttar Pradesh unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Keshav Prasad Maurya, on Wednesday said both the Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) are politically weaker than the BJP, and if the elections take place today, they would suffer crushing defeats.

"I believe that both the SP and the BSP are weaker than the BJP and a delay in the election is only harming the state. Neither the SP nor the BSP cares for the state; they have only plundered it after coming to power, which the people of the state understand very well. If elections take place today, then both the SP and the BSP will be defeated badly," Maurya told ANI.

Kangana takes a dig at Hrithik Roshan and PeeCee

New Delhi [India], Oct 26 : The 'Queen' of Bollywood does it again!

Kanagana Ranaut recently appeared on Neha Dhupia's show #NoFilterNeha and like always was at her candid best. When asked to present an award for the Best 'Thank God they have famous parents or they'd be nowhere', she immediately responded, "Hrithik Roshan, you know it's true!!"

The world knows what happened when she gave a tongue-in-cheek response related to Duggu Roshan a few months back. We are just wondering what the actor has to say to this!

And that's not it. The versatile actor did not spare Priyanka Chopra as well. According to Miss. Ranaut, our Desi Girl should be presented with an award for the most fake laugh.

Well, mincing her words is not Kangana's cup of tea.
