<p>Every interaction with the late Shane Warne was a learning experience, according to India and RCB batter Virat Kohli, who felt the spin legend always had constructive conversations.</p>

<p>One of the all-time greats of the game, Warne died at the age of 52 due to a suspected heart attack in Thailand on March 4.</p>

<p>"I have tried to copy his actions at some stage or the other. That's the impact he had on the game of cricket, and he was an amazing human being as well. I had a chance to speak to him quite a bit off the field as well," Kohli said on RCB Bold Diaries.</p>

<p>"He was always positive and none of his conversations were random. It was always constructive, that you can learn from and spoke very passionately about Test cricket and cricket in general, he just loved the game."</p>

<p>Shane Warne's family expressed their sorrow and shock on Monday at the sudden death of the Australian cricket great and paid tribute to the leg-spinner, in their first public comments since his demise last week.</p>

<p>Tributes are pouring in since&nbsp;as the country&nbsp;remembers the victims who had lost their lives, eleven years ago in the Mumbai terror attacks which began on <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/lack-of-response-to-2611-different-from-uri-and-balakot-operations-s-jaishankar-262170">November 26, 2008</a>.<br />

<br />
After sailing to the city under the cover of darkness, the terrorists targeted major landmarks of Mumbai with the first attack taking place at the crowded Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) railway station.<br />
<br />
Ajmal Amir Kasab and Ismail Khan carried out the attack at this station, killing as many as 58 people and injuring over 100.<br />
<br />
Kasab and Khan later entered to attack Cama Hospital, but the same was thwarted with the alertness of the hospital staff. They, however, killed 6 police officials, including city's Anti-Terrorism Squad Hemant Karkare in an ambush after leaving the hospital.<br />
<br />
The second site of the attack was Nariman House business and residential complex where a Rabbi, his wife, and six others, including five Israeli citizens, were killed by the terrorists who first held them as a hostage.<br />
<br />
The two-year-old child of the Rabbi couple, Moshe, survived in the attack. Then 'Baby Moshe' became a face of the innocent victims of ruthless terrorism.<br />
In July 2017, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met Moshe during his visit to Israel. Later, in January 2018 the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on also met the survivor of 26/11, Moshe Holtzberg at Nariman House in Mumbai.<br />
<br />
The third site to come under attack on 26/11 was the Leopold Cafe followed by Taj Mahal Hotel and Tower. Four terrorists carried out the attack at the famous cafe before entering the iconic Taj hotel, where they killed as many as 31 people after laying a three-day siege at the hotel.<br />
<br />
The other site to come under attack during the 26/11 was Oberoi-Trident hotel where another group of two terrorists entered at almost the same time, as other four had entered Taj. At Oberoi-Trident hotel the siege officially ended on the evening of November 28 with as many as 30 being killed in the horrific attack.<br />
<br />
The attack and seize finally culminated on the morning of November 29, 2008, after the National Security Guards (NSG) secured the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel.<br />
<br />
By the time commandos of the National Security Guards (NSG) gunned down the last terrorists who had been holed up in south Mumbai's Taj Mahal Palace hotel, over 160 people were killed and hundreds were left injured.<br />
<br />
After the attack, it was established that the ten&nbsp;terrorists had sailed to Mumbai from Pakistan's port city, Karachi. Their voyage to Mumbai involved hijacking fishing dingy and killing four of the five men crew, leaving one occupant to ferry them to Mumbai coast.<br />
<br />
In these gruesome attacks, nine&nbsp;terrorists were killed and the lone survivor, Ajmal Amir Kasab, was caught and was sentenced to death at Yerwada Central Jail in Pune in 2012.<br />
<br />
The Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JuD), whose mastermind was Hafiz Saeed, was believed to have plotted the 26/11 attacks.<br />
New Delhi has, time and again, protested against Islamabad for harbouring Saeed, who is wanted for allegedly plotting the 2008 attack. India's stand on Hafiz has been supported by many International personalities including a former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) director and former Afghanistan President.<br />
<br />
Former CIA Director David Howell Petraeus in January 2018, said that there is substantial evidence against Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JuD) chief and UN-designated global terrorist Hafiz Saeed for his role in 26/11 Mumbai terror attack.<br />
<br />
A day after in the same month, former Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai also remarked that there is plenty of evidence against Saeed for his role in 26/11 Mumbai terror attack and everyone knows about it.<br />
<br />
In May 2018, former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif also asserted that terrorists sent by Pakistan were responsible for the deadly 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks that claimed over 160 lives.<br />
<br />
"Militant organisations are active. Call them non-state actors, should we allow them to cross the border and kill 150 people in Mumbai? Explain it to me. Why can't we complete the trial?" Nawaz noted in an interview to Pakistan's Dawn newspaper in a reference to the Mumbai attacks-related trials which have stalled in a Rawalpindi anti-terrorism court.<br />
<br />
Days after Nawaj's not so subtle confessions about Pakistan's involvement in Mumbai attacks, the United States State Department said that Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) founder Hafiz Saeed and 26/11 Mumbai terror attack mastermind is a tremendous concern to Washington.<br />
<br />
"We are concerned about the mastermind behind the 2008 Mumbai attacks. And he's a Lashkar-e-Taiba guy who was being held in Pakistan, and he was eventually let out on house arrest, and we have a reward out for," said spokesperson Heather Nauert while responding to Sharif's remark.<br />
<br />
Ties between India and Pakistan have remained tense since the 2008 Mumbai terror attack and nosedived after the Uri and Pulwama terror attack by Pakistan-based terrorists in September 2016 and February, 2019 respectively, in which many soldiers lost their lives.<br />
<br />
After combating the attack several policy decisions were taken to strengthen nations anti-terrorism framework. One of the immediate decisions the then government took after the attacks were to deploy the NSG commandos in few metropolitan cities. Later on, several NSG hubs were set up for faster response to terror attacks.</p>

Namvar Singh, writer, poet, critic and one of contemporary Hindi literature's tallest figures, has died after a month-long illness, his family said on Wednesday. He was 92. Singh died on Tuesday night at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences. He had not been keeping well for more than a month and was on the ventilator for three weeks, his daughter Sameeksha said. "He died at 11.51 on Tuesday night," she said. The last rites will be performed at 4 pm on Wednesday at the Lodhi Road crematorium, she added. Singh gave Hindi literary criticism a new direction with his books such as "Chhayavaad", "Itihas Aur Alochana", "Kahaani Nayi Kahaani", "Kavita Ke Naye Pratimaan", "Dusri Parampara Ki Khoj".

"He spent his life in creating a tolerant and democratic society. Restoring dialogue in India will be the real tribute to him," Gandhi said. Born on July 28, 1926, in Varanasi's village Jiyanpur (now in Chandauli), Singh completed his MA and PhD in Hindi literature from the Banaras Hindu University. He also worked as a professor in his alma mater BHU as well as Jodhpur University and the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU). Singh served as the editor of two Hindi magazines, Janyug and Alochana. Home Minister Rajnath Singh wrote, "Namvar Singhji's death is a personal loss for me. Despite ideological differences, he knew how to respect people. His death is a huge loss for Hindi literature and our society. My condolences to his family." "Dr Namvar Singh had a special place in Hindi literature. His work and contribution will continue to influence the upcoming generations. My tribute" said CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal also sent his condolences. "Eminent critic of Hindi literature, Namvar Singhji is no longer with us. A humble tribute to the man who gave new direction and stature to criticism in Hindi literature." Paying tributes to the author, Rajkamal Prakashan, which published his books, said his demise was like "the disappearance of the sun from the galaxy of Hindi literature".

Neymar Jr pays tribute to Hawking, gets trolled

US pop diva Jennifer Lopez and Broadway superstar Lin-Manuel Miranda on Monday put out a musical tribute to victims of the Orlando nightclub attack, with proceeds going to charity.<br />
<br />
&quot;Love Make the World Go Round&quot; is tinged with an uptempo synthpop beat and resilient messages, such as when Lopez sings, &quot;Those who hate us and fear us cannot keep us down&quot;.<br />
<br />
Lopez and Miranda, who had teased the song a week ago, performed it on NBC&#39;s &quot;Today&quot; show on a brilliant New York summer day to fans outside Rockefeller Center.<br />
<br />
The pair, who will also play on &quot;The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon&quot; on Tuesday night, put the song on sale over iTunes.<br />
<br />
The title of &quot;Love Make the World Go Round&quot; comes from a Tony Awards acceptance speech by Miranda, who has created one of Broadway&#39;s biggest hits in years with &quot;Hamilton&quot;.<br />
<br />
Miranda acted for the last time in the trailblazing hip-hop musical on Saturday, with the cast&#39;s final performance attended by celebrities ranging from Lopez to filmmaker Spike Lee to US Secretary of State John Kerry.<br />
<br />
Lopez and Miranda are both of Puerto Rican origin. Many of the victims of the June 12 attack were also Hispanic.<br />
<br />
Forty-nine people were killed and another 53 injured when gunman Omar Mateen attacked the Pulse gay nightclub in Orlando.<br />
The mass shooting was the deadliest in modern US history.<br />
<br />
Proceeds from the song will go to the Hispanic Foundation&#39;s Somos Orlando fund, which will provide mental health services to survivors.<br />
<br />
Lopez also took part in a more mournful charity song, &quot;Hands&quot;, which came out last week and features a range of stars including Gwen Stefani, Britney Spears, Mary J Blige and Imagine Dragons.<br />
