A bizarre incident has happened in Maharashtra politics ahead of the state’s civic body elections. A Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde faction) leader, who was performing his mother’s last rites, was given the election ticket right at the crematorium.

CCTV visuals have emerged showing the van in which a 28-year-old Faridabad woman was gang-raped on Tuesday for over two hours before being thrown on the road.

A sea of mourners have gathered in Dhaka to pay final respects to Khaleda Zia, who died on Tuesday aged 80.
