Major scuffle breaks out between players of India and Pakistan during SAFF match
A highly intense SAFF Cup 2023 encounter between the national football teams of India and Pakistan took a tumultuous turn on Wednesday as a major scuffle broke out just before the half-time whistle in Bengaluru.
The incident unfolded as India swiftly secured a 2-0 lead within the first 16 minutes, courtesy of an impressive brace by their captain, Sunil Chhetri.
Tensions escalated between the players when India's coach, Igor Stimac, struck the ball with his right hand, impeding a Pakistan player's attempt to take a throw-in. This action ignited a heated argument between members of both teams, which quickly escalated into a physical altercation.
Referees promptly intervened to separate the players on the field, restoring order and allowing the match to resume.
As a consequence of his involvement, Stimac was shown a red card by the officials, signaling his expulsion from the match. Additionally, Pakistan's coach received a yellow card for his role in the on-field altercation.

BJP's poll campaign video targeting AAP shows roads from BJP-ruled Haryana: Alt News
New Delhi: With the announcement of Delhi Assembly elections, political campaigns are gaining momentum. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) recently shared a video on social media showing poorly maintained roads, claiming they were from Delhi under Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) governance. However, a fact-check by Alt News revealed that the footage was filmed in Faridabad, Haryana, a state governed by the BJP.
The video, shared on BJP’s official social media accounts, featured a caption mocking AAP's infrastructure development, stating, “It is hard to tell whether there are potholes in the road or the road is in the potholes.” Prominent BJP supporters, including Raushan Sinha, also amplified the video, criticising Delhi’s infrastructure under AAP.
Alt News identified a key detail in the video – a signboard reading "Thakur Udaypal Dharamshala." Using Google Maps, they traced the location to Faridabad. A close comparison of the video footage and Google Street View images confirmed the location, with visible matching landmarks such as houses and specific road details.
While the BJP claimed the video depicted Delhi’s roads, Alt News established that it actually highlighted road conditions in Faridabad. This revelation questions the authenticity of the BJP’s claims against AAP’s governance.
