Sudha Reddy, who championed Indian craftsmanship and heritage by donning a bespoke Tarun Tahiliani traditional ensemble for the event, shared, 'To the Miss World Organisation, to Julia Morley, and to everyone sharing this evening: Vanakkam. From Hyderabad, the vibrant heart of Telangana, I am deeply touched and profoundly grateful to stand before you.

BFI, ACG unveil India's first pro basketball league for men and women
India has taken a major leap in its sporting journey with the launch of its first-ever professional basketball league, a joint effort by the Basketball Federation of India (BFI) and ACG Sports Private Limited. The league, which will host competitions in both 5x5 and 3x3 formats for men and women, is designed to offer athletes across the nation a legitimate pathway to pursue basketball professionally. By creating a full-fledged league ecosystem, the organisers aim to shift basketball from a niche sport into the Indian mainstream. The initiative also includes international expertise and a plan to build a high-performance residential academy. With strong structural backing and a bold vision, the league is expected to lay the groundwork for India to compete globally and, eventually, pursue podium finishes at major international events. India's Basketball Dream Finds Structure With the launch of the new league, Indian basketball finally has a structured, year-round competitive platform. ACG's Managing Director, Karan Singh, highlighted the project as a milestone for Indian sport, saying the long-term goal is to ensure that children who dream of playing basketball see a clear professional path ahead of them. He believes the sport has the power to develop character and leadership in addition to athletic skill. Global Expertise at the Helm To ensure the league meets global standards, former Australian NBL Commissioner Jeremy Loeliger has been brought on board as Director of ACG Sports. He will oversee the league's strategic planning and operations, introducing international best practices in league management, athlete development, and commercial partnerships. Building a Pipeline of Talent As part of its broader plan, ACG will establish India's first fully residential high-performance basketball centre. The facility will offer advanced coaching, mental and physical conditioning, and academic balance, helping young athletes evolve both on and off the court. Laying Foundations for Future Glory BFI President Aadhav Arjuna stressed that this is not just about visibility, but about momentum and building real capability to succeed on the global stage. The Federation's Secretary General, Kulvinder Singh Gill, echoed those thoughts, adding that the league will give young players the chance to grow through exposure to international coaches and competition. What Lies Ahead The league's detailed framework including team formation, player eligibility, venues, and operational rules is still being finalised with input from basketball experts. In the months ahead, a League Council will take over operations, while scouting camps, athlete development pathways, and fan engagement initiatives are set to roll out. The long-term aim is to foster an inclusive, commercially viable, and globally respected basketball culture in India.

Poco F7 to launch in India later this month: Here's what we know so far
Xiaomi sub-brand Poco on Friday, June 6, announced that it will be launching the Poco F7 in India sometime later this month. The news comes from the Indian e-commerce giant Flipkart, which recently put up a special microsite for the upcoming phone. The Flipkart page does not give away the launch date, but the URL does mention that the phone will be coming sometime this month. As of now, not much is known about the smartphone, but several leaks and rumours have hinted that the smartphone will likely be based on the China-exclusive Redmi Turbo 4 Pro. The Poco F7 is rumoured to be powered by Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, the mid-range chipset with flagship-like performance that made its debut on the iQOO Neo 10. This will likely be accompanied by a huge 6.83-inch flat LTPO AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1.5K resolution and 1,800 nits of brightness. If the Poco F7 is the same as the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro, the device will most likely come with HyperOS 2 based on Android 15 and have an optical in-display fingerprint scanner. Coming to the camera, the Poco F7 is rumoured to have a vertically aligned elliptical camera island that houses a Sony LYT-600 50MP primary camera in addition to an 8MP ultrawide shooter. Since this is a performance oriented device, it looks like the phone will be missing out on a telephoto shooter. The phone is also rumoured to come with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage and will be backed by a 7,550mAh Silicon Carbon battery that changes at 90W. However, it is unlikely to get wireless charging support. While the Chinese variant comes in three colourways – Black, White and Green, it is unclear if these colour options will find their way to India. Like its predecessor, the Poco F7 will be priced somewhere between Rs 30,000 to Rs 35,000, but we will have to wait to know more.
