Hyderabad (PTI): Three persons were arrested here for allegedly pushing a senior citizen onto the track from the platform of a metro station here following an argument, police said on Tuesday.

The senior citizen, while travelling in the metro train here on October 21, told the youth that they were sitting in the seats meant for old-age people and asked them to vacate, which led to an argument.

The senior citizen tried to lodge a complaint by calling up the number displayed on the train and told the youth that the police would arrive at the next station.

The youth, who were allegedly drunk, alighted the train when the train stopped at the next station and sought to leave the place. But the senior citizen tried to stop them.

They pushed him from the platform, and he fell on the track.

Based on a complaint by the senior citizen, an attempt to murder case was registered and the trio were arrested on November 3, police added.

New Delhi (PTI): Senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor on Monday took a swipe at the "failed" US-Iran peace talks in Pakistan with an Urdu couplet, saying only god knows now what will happen.

"Ab kya hoga, ye rab jane; Na woh mane, na ye mane (only god knows what will happen now as both sides did not agree)," Tharoor said on X, tagging a post-talks video clip of US Vice President J D Vance, who led the American delegation at the negotiations in Islamabad.

The United States and Iran failed to reach a peace deal at their historic 21-hour talks in Pakistan, leaving the fate of a tenuous two-week ceasefire in doubt, with both sides attempting to hold each other responsible for the collapse of the negotiations.

Vance said the Iranian side did not accept Washington's terms for ending the war even as the US presented its "final and best offer".

Hours after the talks collapsed, US President Donald Trump said on social media that the negotiations with Tehran failed as "Iran is unwilling to give up its nuclear ambitions".

Trump said the US Navy will actively interdict any vessel in international waters found to have paid tolls to Iran for transiting through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping route that handles roughly 20 per cent of global oil and LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas).

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the head of the Iranian negotiation team, said it is for the US to decide whether it can "earn our trust or not".

The Iranian foreign ministry, without elaborating, said the US side resorted to "excessive" and "illegal demands".

The failure to reach an agreement has dimmed the prospect of reopening the Strait of Hormuz to stabilise the global energy marke
