GUWAHATI: Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has described the death of popular singer Zubeen Garg as “plain and simple murder”, telling the state Assembly on Tuesday that “one person killed him and others helped him”.“After preliminary probe, the Assam Police was sure that it was not a case of culpable homicide, but it was a plain and simple murder,” Sarma said.

“That is why, section 103 of BNS was added to the case within three days of his death,” he added.The SIT under the CID of the state police has so far arrested seven people, examined 252 witnesses and seized 29 items in connection with the case, he said.“One of the accused killed Garg and others helped him. Four to five people are being booked in the murder case,” Sarma claimed.“After the chargesheet in the murder case is submitted in December, the probe will be expanded to include negligence, criminal breach of trust and other aspects,” he added.Sarma, claimed that the SIT will file a “watertight chargesheet, and the motive behind the crime will shock the people of the state”.Speaking on the first day of the winter session, Sarma intervened as the opposition moved an adjournment motion to discuss the circumstances surrounding the singer’s death in Singapore on 19 September. The motion, brought separately by leader of the opposition Debabrata Saikia and independent MLA Akhil Gogoi, was admitted after the chief minister asked the speaker to allow the discussion.Sarma said the government was “equally seized of the matter” and requested that the motion be taken up, while adding that the Treasury benches would not participate in the debate and would only present the government’s formal response. He also urged the House to permit the introduction of important bills and supplementary grants listed on the day’s agenda.Speaker Biswajit Daimary allowed the adjournment motion, noting that the scheduled bills would be tabled after the discussion. He cautioned members to avoid remarks that could interfere with the ongoing investigation.Garg, 52, died while swimming in the sea in Singapore.A Special Investigation Team of Assam Police is examining the circumstances of his death. Separately, a one-man commission led by Justice Soumitra Saikia of the Gauhati high court has extended the deadline for recording statements and submitting evidence to 12 December. The commission began its work on 3 November, and individuals with relevant information have been asked to submit duly notarised affidavits between 10:30 and 16:00 hours on working days.The singer’s 53rd birthday last month was marked across Assam with emotional tributes, as the investigation continues.

Deepti Sharma is set to be one of the headline attractions in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 mega auction after her extraordinary performance in the recently concluded ICC Women’s World Cup 2025. The star Indian all-rounder not only helped India clinch their maiden World Cup title but also set historic records, becoming the first cricketer—male or female—to score over 200 runs and take more than 20 wickets in a single edition of the tournament. Deepti played a key role in the final against South Africa, scoring a rapid 58 and claiming a five-wicket haul, earning her the Player of the Tournament award and rewriting the record books with 215 runs and 22 wickets overall.​

3 teams that can target Deepti Sharma in WPL 2026 auction

1. UP Warriorz

UP Warriorz franchise, which previously made Deepti the centerpiece of their campaign, will be among the teams most eager to bring her back at the mega auction. With a sizable purse of ₹14.5 crore after an aggressive release strategy, UP Warriorz are perfectly positioned for a high-stakes bid. Deepti’s familiarity with the local crowd and her captaincy experience add layers to her value for the Warriorz, offering leadership as well as all-round cricketing prowess.

She has featured in 25 matches for UPW, amassing 507 runs and 27 wickets, becoming a fan favourite and tactical asset. The franchise is in need of impact players to rebuild around, and Deepti fits the profile both as a match-winner and a face of the team who resonates with fans in Uttar Pradesh—making her return a strong probability.​

2. Delhi Capitals

Delhi Capitals are actively seeking a left-handed all-rounder to balance their predominantly right-handed batting lineup and add bowling options capable of handling pressure situations. Deepti’s versatility—successfully fulfilling lower middle-order and finishing roles, and excelling in all phases of the innings as a bowler—makes her an ideal candidate for Delhi Capitals.

Her recent marked improvement with the bat and her proven match-winning qualities in pressure situations have made her a prioritized target. The inclusion of Deepti alongside all-rounders like Marizanne Kapp and Annabel Sutherland would solidify DC’s ability to control 12 overs with quality all-rounders, a key strategic advantage for the team in crunch games.​

3. Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians, meanwhile, are known for strengthening their squad with highly impactful domestic stars. With an auction purse of ₹5.75 crore, MI may bank on Deepti’s consistency and her ability to stabilize both batting and bowling lineups. Deepti’s proven record in crucial matches—especially her ability to deliver under pressure on the global stage—is exactly what MI looks for in experienced campaigners. Moreover, her presence would bring tactical flexibility and allow Mumbai Indians to rotate their bowling attack to lock down overs at both ends of an inning.​

Mumbai: Residents across Mumbai woke up to a hazy skyline on Tuesday. While the city’s overall air quality index (AQI) fell in the moderate category at 172, six areas were in the ‘poor’ zone—Chakala-Andheri East reported the highest AQI at 255, Mazgaon 252, Powai 221, Borivali 219, Navy Nagar in Colaba 216, and Malad West 210.Sion was the cleanest pocket with an AQI of 67, placing it in the ‘satisfactory’ band. Of the 20 active monitoring stations, 13 recorded ‘moderate’ pollution levels. Weather expert Sunil Dahiya attributed the uneven pollution distribution to low wind speeds and altered wind movement caused by dense high-rises. “Because the wind speed is low, areas with high pollutants, like vehicular emissions, do not disperse. Also, wind movements are altered because of skyscrapers and tall buildings, leading to pockets with very high AQI.” While the city’s air quality saw marginal upticks over the last three days, the month logged deteriorating conditions. Nov began with satisfactory air, with AQI levels between 60 and 90, but as its end neared, the average air quality dropped significantly. Meanwhile, temperatures dropped slightly from the day before. IMD’s Santacruz observatory—the city’s benchmark—recorded a minimum of 21.9°C, nearly 2°C below normal, while the maximum touched 34°C. At the Colaba station, the minimum stood at 23.9°C, about 1.3° below normal, with a maximum of 33°C.

TOI Correspondent from Washington: China’s leader Xi JinPing and US President Donald Trump solidified their “G-2” compact on Monday with mutual invitations of high-level visits even as Beijing, embroiled in a fresh spats with Japan and India, pressed its claims on Taiwan with little pushback from Washington.In a 45-minute phone call, China’s President Xi ratcheted up the Taiwan issue after Japan’s new leader Sanae Takaichi, in her first major foreign policy address since taking office in September, declared that a Chinese attempt to blockade or seize Taiwan would constitute a “direct threat” to Japan’s security and and invoked the country’s mutual defense treaty with the US.Xi-Trump telecon followed immediately, with Beijing asserting it underscored that Taiwan’s return to China is an integral part of the post-war international order and warning against external interference that could destabilize the Asia-Pacific. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian elaborated in a briefing that Xi emphasized the “one-China principle” as non-negotiable, framing it as essential for mutual trust.Trump’s post on the call completely omitted any reference to Taiwan that China said it raised, and instead focused on trade issues and improvement in ties. Some experts interpreted it as a US retreat in the face of China increasing pressure on the Taiwan front after seeing Washington throw Ukraine under the bus. “I just had a very good telephone call with President Xi. We discussed many topics including Ukraine/Russia, Fentanyl, Soybeans and other Farm Products, etc. …Our relationship with China is extremely strong!…President Xi invited me to visit Beijing in April, which I accepted, and I reciprocated where he will be my guest for a State Visit in the U.S. later in the year,” Trump said in a rah-rah post on social media, with no mention of the discussion on Taiwan. Hours after the Xi call, Trump spoke by phone with Takaichi, affirming “close cooperation” between Washington and Tokyo on Indo-Pacific security. The White House described the exchange as productive, touching on supply chain resilience and joint exercises, but offered no specifics on Taiwan.The sequencing suggests Trump adopting a strategy of balancing great-power engagement with China – which he has repeatedly characterized as G-2 – without alenating allies, though critics say it could embolden Beijing’s assertiveness. Several U.S analysts are warning that Xi is “playing” Trump and “stringing him along” after the latter’s threat to unleash an economic fusillade on China turned out to be bluster.“Xi has secured Trump’s commitment to several meetings in 2026, as well as concessions from the administration on incredibly contentious issues: Taiwan and U.S. export controls. By every measure, China is diplomatically, strategically, and technologically better off than it was a year ago,” Foreign Affairs commentator Jonathan Czin wrote. Commentators also cautioned that Trump’s transactional diplomacy prioritizing economic concessions over strategic commitments in the Indo-Pacific risks alienating allies and partners like Japan and India. Trump has repeatedly talked up U.S-China relations – and his personal equation with Xi – in recent days even as several U.S analysts say Washington has come out worst in the fight the U.S President picked with Beijing. “This call was a follow up to our highly successful meeting in South Korea, three weeks ago. Since then, there has been significant progress on both sides in keeping our agreements current and accurate. Now we can set our sights on the big picture,” Trump said in his post on Monday, even as Beijing was was re-litigating a dispute with New Delhi over the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh. The latest spat between China and Japan began when Takaichi, who was elected last month, told lawmakers that a hypothetical Chinese attack on self-ruling Taiwan, which at its closest point is about 70 miles from Japanese territory, could threaten Japan’s survival and trigger a military response from Tokyo.Beijing’s response was swift and severe. Foreign Minister Wang Yi accused Takaichi of sending a “shocking wrong signal” by openly contemplating military intervention, labeling it a “red line” crossed. China’s embassy in Tokyo summoned Japan’s ambassador, and the PLA issued warnings of a “crushing defeat” for any Japanese involvement in a cross-strait conflict. The feud escalated to the United Nations on November 22, where China’s envoy condemned Japan’s stance as “provocative meddling.” State media amplified the rhetoric, with the Global Times editorializing that Tokyo’s “reckless words” echoed U.S. “hegemony” and risked war.

Rohit Sharma will return to the global stage in a new role, with the former India captain appointed as the ambassador for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026. The tournament, to be hosted by India and Sri Lanka, will feature a familiar face at its forefront. Rohit has featured in every edition of the event since its inception. The announcement was made by ICC chairman Jay Shah.

Rohit’s journey in the format stretches from 2007, when he made an unbeaten 30* in the tense final against Pakistan, to 2024, where he led India to a long-awaited second title. The 2024 campaign included major contributions, including a decisive 92 off 41 balls against Australia in the Super Eights and a half-century in the semifinal against England. It was after lifting the trophy that he stepped away from T20Is. Speaking about his new assignment, Rohit said, “It is great to have the tournament back in India and for me to be associated once again with the tournament, this time in a new capacity as the Brand Ambassador,” adding, “I wish all the players the very best and hope they have a memorable time and enjoy India’s hospitality while taking back a lot of memories.” At the schedule launch event in Mumbai, Rohit also indicated he would remain connected with the current T20 group. He said he plans to meet members of the squad during the upcoming ODI series and offer guidance when needed. “There’s always a conversation that happens between the players, and I am somebody who likes to talk, discuss and get into their mindset a little bit and understand what they are thinking,” he said. The panel also featured Suryakumar Yadav and Harmanpreet Kaur, where discussions briefly shifted to potential final-match opponents.

Asked whom he would like to face in a title clash, Suryakumar replied, “Australia, definitely,” reflecting on the defeat in the 2023 ODI World Cup final. Rohit, though, reiterated that the opponent mattered less than securing the trophy itself. With India preparing for another major home event, Rohit’s presence , although in a different capacity, keeps him firmly in the frame as the buildup intensifies.
