<p><strong>Shane Warne death mystery:</strong> Three years after the death of Australian spin bowling legend Shane Warne  in 2022, a shocking revelation has emerged. The cricketing icon was found dead in his villa in Thailand in March 2022, with the official cause of death attributed to a heart attack by the police. However, a new twist has surfaced.</p>



<p>According to a report in the <i>Daily Mail</i>, a bottle of the drug Kamagra was removed from Warne&#8217;s villa after his death. A police officer involved in the investigation revealed this, stating that they were instructed to conceal this fact. Kamagra is a sexual enhancement drug used to treat erectile dysfunction, containing sildenafil citrate, similar to Viagra. This medication can be dangerous for individuals with pre-existing heart conditions.</p>



<p>A Thai police officer disclosed, “Our senior officers ordered us to remove the bottle. These instructions came from above. I believe senior Australian officials were also involved, as they did not want their national hero&#8217;s end to be revealed in this way.” The officer also mentioned the presence of vomit and bloodstains at the scene, making it difficult to determine the exact amount of Kamagra Warne consumed before his death.</p>



<p>These new revelations raise serious questions about whether crucial evidence was deliberately concealed to protect Shane Warne&#8217;s legacy. The post-mortem report attributed his death to natural causes, specifically a heart attack. However, the recent disclosures have created a sensation, suggesting that Kamagra consumption may have contributed to the heart attack.</p>

<p><strong>Rajasthan News:</strong> Visiting Ranthambore National Park is about to get more expensive. The Forest Department is planning to increase park entry fees by approximately 10 percent. According to reports, the new rates will come into effect from the morning shift on 1 April.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Park Entry Fees Increased Annually Since 2016</h2>



<p>It is noteworthy that park entry fees have been increased every year since 2016. However, the Forest Department only increases the entry fee by ten percent, not the entire amount. Therefore, an increase of ₹50 to ₹100 per person is expected for jeep and canter safaris.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Current Park Entry Fees</h2>



<p>According to information received from the Forest Department, currently, Indian tourists pay ₹889 and foreign tourists pay ₹2294 for a canter safari. For jeep safaris, ₹1470 is charged for Indian tourists and ₹2790 for foreign tourists.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Annual Fee Increases Met with Opposition</h2>



<p>Those involved in the tourism industry in Ranthambore are opposing the Forest Department&#8217;s policy of increasing park entry fees annually. They argue that Ranthambore&#8217;s entry fees are already high, and further increases are inappropriate, placing an unnecessary financial burden on tourists. They also fear that repeated price hikes could divert tourists to tiger reserves in other states.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New Rates Effective 1 April</h2>



<p>As in previous years, a 10 percent increase in entry fees will be implemented this year. The new rates will be effective from the morning shift on 1 April.<br><strong> Pramod Kumar Dhakar, Deputy Conservator of Forests (Tourism),</strong> Ranthambore Tiger Project, Sawai Madhopur.</p>

<p><strong>Eid Holiday:</strong> Haryana government employees will not receive a holiday for Eid this year. The BJP government, led by Deputy Chief Minister (Nayab Singh Saini), has issued a notification cancelling the Eid holiday. This decision has sparked debate in the state. The government&#8217;s latest order removes Eid from the list of gazetted holidays, declaring it a Restricted Holiday (RH). This means the holiday is optional, and government offices will function as usual.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Work on March 31st</h2>



<p>According to the new notification, the government&#8217;s rationale is that Eid falls on March 31st, a Monday. This follows a weekend (Saturday, March 29th, and Sunday, March 30th). Furthermore, March 31st is the last day of the financial year 2024-25, known as the Financial Year Closing Day. Government departments need to complete accounting and financial tasks on this day. The government claims this decision to cancel the Eid holiday was made considering these circumstances.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pre-existing Leave on March 29th and 30th</h2>



<p>The notification clearly states, “Due to the weekend, Saturday and Sunday (March 29th and 30th) will be holidays. This decision has been taken because March 31st (Monday) is the closing day of the financial year.” Under this order, the Eid holiday has been converted into a Restricted Holiday, meaning employees are free to take it, but it will not be mandatory for everyone.</p>


<p>Eid Holiday: The government has reasoned that Eid this year falls on March 31st, a Monday.</p>

<p><strong>Effects Of Screen Time:</strong> In today&#8217;s time, screen time has increased so much that it has started affecting our sleep. Scrolling through your phone before sleeping can result in a loss of 50 minutes of sleep every week. Due to this habit, our body&#8217;s internal cycle gets disrupted, affecting the quality of sleep and preventing us from getting fully rested. So, let&#8217;s understand how this habit affects our sleep and what measures can be taken to avoid it.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Disturbances in the body’s internal cycles due to excessive screen viewing</h2>



<p>Adults who regularly use mobile phones before bed are losing almost an hour of sleep every week. According to research by the American Cancer Society, excessive screen time daily can disrupt a person&#8217;s body&#8217;s 24-hour internal cycle. This cycle regulates our sleep-wake patterns, hormone production, body temperature, and other vital bodily functions.</p>



<p>This disruption results in approximately an hour less sleep each week. According to research published in the JAMA Network Journal, people who watch screens late into the night wake up later in the morning. Such individuals experience a disruption in their internal cycle and are unable to synchronise their schedules with daily activities. This leads to sleep disturbances.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Study on 122,000 people</h2>



<p>The research involved a study of over 122,000 people. Of these, 41 percent scrolled on their phones before sleep every day. They were found to have a 33 percent higher likelihood of poor sleep compared to those who did not use screens.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Disruption of natural sleep cycle</h2>



<p>The hormone melatonin is produced in our bodies in darkness, inducing sleep. According to research, the light emitted from phones and other digital screens prevents melatonin production. This disrupts the natural sleep cycle.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ways to control screen time</h2>



<p>To control screen time, avoid using your mobile phone for at least an hour before bed. To get a good night&#8217;s sleep, keep your phone away and create a comfortable sleep environment.</p>

<p>Rishabh Pant&#8217;s Highest Score in IPL 2025: Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by 5 wickets in the 7th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. The LSG captain won the toss and opted to bowl first. This decision drew criticism on social media, but Pant had other plans. Shardul Thakur, unsold in the IPL 2025 mega auction, struck twice in his second over, setting the tone for Lucknow&#8217;s victory. While Thakur provided the early breakthroughs, Nicholas Pooran&#8217;s efforts couldn&#8217;t quite compensate, and the 27 crore player&#8217;s bat remained largely silent.</p>



<p>Lucknow Super Giants acquired Rishabh Pant for a staggering 27 crore in the IPL 2025 mega auction, the highest bid in IPL history. Questions arose about whether Pant was truly worth this price. In the first two matches of IPL 2025, Pant&#8217;s batting was underwhelming. Despite playing on pitches conducive to batting, the Lucknow captain managed only 15 runs across both matches. He was dismissed for a duck in the first match and scored 15 runs off 15 balls in the second. At the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium, where most batsmen had strike rates exceeding 200, Pant&#8217;s strike rate barely reached 100.</p>



<p>This raised further questions about LSG&#8217;s decision to buy Pant for 27 crore. The cost per run for Pant has become exorbitant, at a whopping 1 crore 80 lakh. Although Lucknow won against Hyderabad, Pant&#8217;s captaincy lacked impact, and his batting failed to deliver. Against Hyderabad, Pant attempted a response with a massive six, but was soon dismissed, leaving his team in a precarious position.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pant&#8217;s Post-Match Comments</h2>



<p>After the match, Pant said, “It’s a big relief, but as a team, we talk about the process. It’s not about getting too excited when you win and too disappointed when you lose. As a team, we can’t focus on things we can’t control, my mentor said focus on things you can control and I did that. It was good to see the way Prince bowled and Thakur also bowled really well. We haven’t played our best cricket yet, but happy to get the win.”</p>
