Asia Cup: Gautam Gambhir flashes middle finger to Kohli fans; Video viral
Colombo: Former Indian cricketer and current BJP MP, Gautam Gambhir, has again stirred controversy during the India vs. Nepal match by making an offensive gesture towards fans who were chanting the name of cricketer Virat Kohli.
Video footage of the incident quickly circulated on social media wherein he can be seen flashing his middle finger to the fans of Virat Kohli, leading fans to accuse Gambhir of displaying jealousy and insecurity towards Kohli. Many expressed their disbelief that a Member of Parliament would engage in such behavior in public.
The rivalry between Gambhir and Kohli, as well as their respective fan bases, has been ongoing, particularly since an on-field altercation between the two during an IPL match earlier this year when Gambhir was serving as the mentor of a team.
Recently, during a match between India and Pakistan, Gambhir criticized Kohli's performance, particularly his dismissal by Shaheen Afridi, referring to Kohli's shot as a "nothing shot" that led to the ball hitting his stumps and dismissing him
Kohli is loved by cricket fans from all over the world but why this BJP MP Gautam Gambhir hates him?

7 held for running fake call centre in South Kolkata
Kolkata (PTI): Seven people were arrested from the Parnashree area in the southern part of the city for allegedly running a fake call centre, a police officer said on Saturday.
Acting on a tip-off, police raided a house on Netaji Subhas Road on Friday night and found the fake call centre operating from the ground floor, he said.
Preliminary investigation revealed that the accused had set up a bogus company using forged documents and posed as employees of an antivirus firm to call citizens in the US, the officer said.
"The callers would gain the trust of victims and then use remote access to take control of their phones or other digital devices. The accused allegedly siphoned off large sums of money, running into millions of dollars, from victims' accounts," he said.
Five laptops, two WiFi routers, six mobile phones and four headsets were seized from the accused, he said, adding that the seven are being questioned to ascertain the full extent of the racket and to identify others involved.
