Vivek Ramaswamy's Photo Met With Racial Remarks Again. This Time Netizens Shut Trolls
Last Updated: Despite the hate, several users called out the unnecessary attacks directed towards Vivek Ramaswamy and questioned the racial double standards. The ongoing public fallout between Tesla co-founder Elon Musk and US President Donald Trump has taken an unexpected turn. It has now dragged Indian-origin Republican leader Vivek Ramaswamy into the spotlight. While the two heavyweights were engaged in a full-blown feud, Ramaswamy quietly posted a family photo which was met with a fresh wave of vicious trolling. The post in question showed Ramaswamy carrying his two children, Karthik and Arjun, with a caption that read, 'It's why we do it." But instead of being seen as a heartwarming moment, the picture sparked backlash online with users interpreting it as a sign of him distancing himself from the Musk-Trump standoff which is something that didn't sit well with many Americans. One user commented, 'Go fix India, anchor baby." 'Is there a scientific reason as to why I find this photo repulsive?" someone wrote. Some stood by Ramaswamy, expressing support and condemning the racist slurs being posted by users even using Grok for abuse. @grok change the background of this photo to a American White House— ThatuVadaiSettu (@ThatuVadaiSettu) June 6, 2025 @grok change the background of this photo to a garbage-filled street in India— Trevor Sutcliffe (@TrevorSutcliffe) June 6, 2025 An individual simply advised, 'Take care of your family. Protect your family. The rest is noise." Take care of your family. Protect your family. The rest is noise.— MAZE (@mazemoore) June 6, 2025 In the comments, some users even mocked his children for wearing shoes without socks. A person said, 'In America we wear socks," while another added, 'We wear socks under our shoes in America." In America we wear socks.— MongolianBeast (@MongolianBeast1) June 6, 2025 These comments were not random. They were linked to an earlier incident in March when Ramaswamy was trolled for being barefoot in his own home during an old interview. The photos had resurfaced online and many people mocked him for following the common Indian custom of removing shoes indoors. Some even wrote, 'We aren't in India." Another such racial attack on Ramaswamy surfaced just a few days ago. The Indian-origin entrepreneur had shared a post celebrating his 10th wedding anniversary with wife Apoorva. It included before-and-after pictures from 2014 and 2025 taken at the same spot in the Rockies. What should have been a personal and joyful moment also attracted hateful comments. Some users posted discriminatory remarks like – 'The beauty of the whiteness destroyed by brown" and 'Why do you both look 3-4 shades lighter? You didn't bleach your skin, did you?" In the fall of 2011, I met a brilliant medical student named Apoorva & asked her out on a first date – to head west for a weekend & hike Flattop Mountain in the Rockies. She accepted. We got within striking distance of the summit when a blizzard hit. I was foolishly stubborn… — Vivek Ramaswamy (@VivekGRamaswamy) May 26, 2025 The backlash ties into Ramaswamy's past remarks on the H-1B visa programme. Last year, he spoke about the need for more foreign workers but also called for major changes in the system. He said the process should be more merit-based and transparent. But he was slammed for allegedly favouring the replacement of American workers with Indian immigrants. He eventually stepped down from his role as co-chair of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a position he was set to share with Musk. As of now, Vivek Ramaswamy is running for governor in the state of Ohio.

Ludhiana: Teacher brings Telugu to life with nursery rhyme in school
After the Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) asked schools to teach the basics of Telugu under the Bharatiya Bhasha Summer Camp, Karamjeet Singh Grewal, a government schoolteacher in Ludhiana, went a step ahead as he made students sing a Telugu nursery rhyme. His initiative became the highlight of the Bharatiya Bhasha Summer Camp that commenced across the state schools on Thursday. Grewal, who teaches Punjabi at Government High School, Kheri Jhameri, taught his class 7 and 8 students a Telugu nursery rhyme called 'Cheeni Cheeni Papa Aalu'. The students sang the song with perfect pronunciation and rhythm. They even recorded a video of their performance and uploaded it to YouTube where it received praise from people across India, including native Telugu speakers. As per the PSEB directions, students are to be taught simple Telugu alphabet, colour names, basic sentences and greetings. But Grewal decided to go a step further. 'I want the children to enjoy the process, not just learn the words,' said Grewal. 'Because of my connection with the Scouts and Guides fellowship, I contacted some friends from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. They helped me choose a meaningful Telugu rhyme and explained its cultural background. I then composed a simple tune to go with it.' The rhyme became an instant hit in the classroom. After just two days of practice, the students were able to sing the rhyme confidently. Grewal's passion for music started in his childhood, when he would sing devotional songs during village morning processions called 'Prabhat Pheris' in Lalton Kalan, Ludhiana. He went on to earn a master's degree in music and has written and composed over 800 songs for children in various Indian languages. In addition to Telugu, he has recorded nursery rhymes in Tamil, Gujarati and Assamese. He now aims to create nursery rhymes in all 24 official Indian languages and eventually branch out into foreign languages too. 'Music is a wonderful way to learn. It brings people together and makes learning joyful,' he said. Grewal has been recognised at both the state and national levels. He received a state award in 2009 and a national teaching award in 2013. In 2022, during India's 75th Independence anniversary celebrations, he won the top prize in a national lullaby contest for a patriotic Punjabi lori (lullaby). His efforts have been praised not just for creativity but for promoting India's cultural unity. At a time when many children struggle to learn new languages, Grewal has shown that music can act as a bridge between regions and cultures. He believes teachers can make a huge difference when given the freedom to innovate. 'If we teach with love and creativity, children will naturally develop interest,' he said. 'Learning a language is like opening a door to someone's culture—and children are the best ambassadors of that idea.'

Shreyas Iyer 'can't be kept out of T20Is, Tests', 'officially' challenges Shubman Gill, Rohit Sharma for India captaincy
The scoreboard might show Shreyas Iyer as the losing captain of IPL 2025, but within Indian cricket's power corridors, his stock has never been higher. On the eve of the final between RCB and Punjab Kings, one of Indian cricket's influential decision-makers offered a striking endorsement of Iyer's future. 'Right now he just plays ODIs, but after this IPL we can't keep him out of T20 internationals and even Tests. Plus he also has now officially joined the white-ball captaincy race,' the official told Indian Express, suggesting that Iyer's impact this season has sparked a serious rethink within the national setup. It's been a turnaround few saw coming. Not long ago, Shreyas found himself without a central contract, out of the Test and T20I squads, and, most shockingly, released by Kolkata Knight Riders after leading them to the IPL title in 2024. The doubts over his fitness, form, and temperament had pushed him to the fringes. However, Iyer continued to perform big in domestic circuit for Mumbai, and even led the side in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Then came Punjab Kings, a franchise with perennial underachievement but rich in untapped potential. Iyer embraced the challenge, and what followed was a masterclass in leadership. He found not only form with the bat but also forged a deep emotional connection with teammates and fans, who began calling him 'Sarpanch Sahab,' a nod to his calm but commanding presence. The moment that sealed his status came during the Eliminator against the Mumbai Indians. With the chase wobbling and Jasprit Bumrah breathing fire, Iyer unfurled a counter-assault of stunning composure. He dismantled Bumrah, cleared the ropes with ease, and held firm as wickets tumbled at the other end. Iyer eventually finished unbeaten on 87 off 41 deliveries, ensuring PBKS chased down a huge 204-run target with an over to spare. Though Punjab eventually fell short in the final, Iyer's aura only grew. His cold stare at Shashank Singh after a critical run-out showed he could demand more from his players. Iyer may not have lifted the trophy this year, but he's certainly forced Indian cricket to sit up and reconsider.
