Soaking In Culture: Australian Vlogger's Kurta Moment At Taj Mahal Is Heart-Warming
Travel has a way of broadening our horizons and sparking delightful discoveries. Whether it's savouring exotic flavours, marvelling at breath-taking landscapes, or embracing local customs, every trip abroad offers a chance to experience the world in a new and exciting way. In a heart-warming video, Australian vlogger Jaden Laing shared his first experience of wearing a traditional Indian kurta pyjama. The clip, shared on Instagram, amused viewers and sparked a fascinating conversation about cultural exchange. The video begins with Jaden entering a shop in search of an outfit. As his gaze lands on a vibrant kurta pyjama set, curiosity gets the better of him and he requests one in his size. Before trying it on, he asks the vendor, "Can you wear this anywhere, or is it formal attire?" After being assured that it's suitable for any occasion, Jaden picks a colour he likes and quickly tries it on right there in the store. Visibly excited after wearing the kurta, Jaden says, "This is fresh, bro. I rate this hard, lad." He then asks about the cost, which turns out to be Rs. 1,750. When he tries on the pyjama, he's briefly puzzled by its oversized waist-until the helper explains that it comes with an adjustable drawstring. After a final fit check, Jaden pays the bill and shares that he plans to wear the kurta pyjama for his visit to the Taj Mahal the next day.

Jaden looks elated, wearing the same kurta pyjama he bought earlier. In the caption, he writes, "Taj Mahal is not just a monument, but a symbol of eternal love."

It's a reminder that sometimes, the most unforgettable moments come from stepping out of our comfort zones-and into something beautifully unfamiliar.

Congress leaders harbouring Emergency mindset: BJP MP
Indore: BJP MP and spokesman Sudhanshu Trivedi on Wednesday accused Congress leaders of harbouring 'Emergency period mindset' that they were above Constitution and their ambitions outweighed national interests. "Congress believes in the objectionable slogan of 'India is Indira and Indira is India.' The same mindset of Emergency remains prevalent in the party even today. And leaders like Rahul Gandhi consider themselves above Constitution," Trivedi said while addressing a press conference to mark 50 years of Emergency. He said that June 25, 1975 marked a black chapter in the history of Indian democracy as fundamental rights of citizens were trampled, freedom of expression was shackled, and voices of the Opposition were crushed. "Congress wants to run the country according to its convenience. If it wins elections, it doesn't have any problem with Constitution, but after any setback in polls, it starts claiming that the Constitution is in danger," he said, referring to Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi waving the 'red book' in Congress rallies. Trivedi questioned Gandhi's comments during his foreign visits and said, "Months ago, Rahul Gandhi went abroad and asked why the defenders of democracy - US and Europe - were silent on India. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Dark Truth Nobody Talks About! Expertinspector Click Here Undo Calling them defenders… Such utterances show the party's Emergency mindset. Their political ambitions outweigh interests of the nation." To a query, Trivedi said that the West Asia crisis was nothing but a fight between Muslim countries for supremacy. "One pole of this fight is Saudi Arabia, the leader of the Sunni world, and the other pole is Iran, the leader of the Shia world. We hope that a positive spirit will emerge and the crisis in West Asia will be resolved peacefully soon," he said.

Middle East conflict: Flights resume, passengers relieved as airlines restore operations
AFTER THE disruption caused by the escalating conflict in the Middle East, major Indian airlines have begun resuming flights from Wednesday, offering relief to hundreds of affected travellers. Carriers including Air India, IndiGo and SpiceJet had earlier suspended or rerouted services as a safety measure, but with conditions gradually stabilising, operations are being cautiously restored. Apoorva, an Air India official, said the suspensions were necessary due to security concerns linked to the conflict. 'With the situation now stabilising, we have resumed operations on certain routes. Passenger communication, rebooking, and refunds are being handled as per protocol,' the official said. SpiceJet spokesperson said, 'Flight operations to the Middle East have now returned to normal. We're operating smoothly and even resumed our flights from the 25th.' Dr Santosh, a passenger who was scheduled to fly from Ahmedabad to London on Air India flight AI 159, shared his experience, 'I was supposed to fly on Tuesday morning at 5:30, but due to the situation in the Middle East, our flight got cancelled. It was stressful because I thought I would miss important business work in London. Now that the flights have resumed, I feel a huge sense of relief. I'm thankful that operations are slowly returning to normal.' Among the routes affected earlier this week were Pune-Singapore and Bengaluru-Singapore, both of which were temporarily suspended by Air India until at least July 15. The airline had also halted its Mumbai-Bagdogra route and reduced frequencies on 19 other major domestic and short-haul international routes. Routes such as Delhi-Mumbai, Mumbai-Kolkata, and Delhi-Goa saw temporary frequency cuts. Despite the cuts, Air India continued operating nearly 600 daily flights and had assured passengers that it was working proactively to offer re-accommodation, complimentary rescheduling, or full refunds. With the easing of tension in some regions, the airline has now begun restoring schedules in a phased manner. IndiGo, which had suspended flights to and from over a dozen Middle Eastern cities including Dubai, Doha, Kuwait, and Jeddah, also resumed select services on Wednesday. The airline continues to assess the situation closely in coordination with aviation authorities and is gradually reactivating affected routes where safe. Meanwhile, in a stark reminder of the seriousness of the situation, a Dubai-bound SpiceJet flight from Pune was forced to return mid-air early Monday morning. Flight SG-51 had taken off from Pune International Airport around 9:54 pm but returned shortly after crossing Indian airspace due to the escalating conflict in the region. While the airspace over conflict-affected zones remains under watch, Indian carriers have reiterated that passenger safety remains their top priority. Flyers are advised to check real-time updates via airline websites or apps and ensure their contact details are updated for timely alerts. With phased resumptions now underway, airlines are cautiously optimistic about returning to full operations, provided the geopolitical environment continues to stabilise.
