Man Forces Dog To Drink Beer In Nagaland, Netizens Demand Strict Action; Video

A video from Nagaland has gone viral on Instagram and Facebook, showing a middle-aged man forcing an indigenous dog to drink beer. The disturbing footage has left netizens furious, with many demanding immediate action from the police.

In the video, the man can be clearly seen holding the dog’s mouth open and pouring beer down its throat, forcefully closing its mouth afterward. The dog appears visibly distressed, struggling and showing clear signs of discomfort. At one point, it even looks as if the animal is about to vomit due to the taste of the alcohol.

Social media users have overwhelmingly condemned the man’s actions as cruel and inhumane. Many animal lovers expressed shock and disappointment over the lack of empathy shown towards the dog. The incident has sparked a widespread outcry, with calls for swift legal action to hold the responsible individual accountable.

As of now, there have been no reports of any arrest or official action taken against the man.

### Nagaland Rules Against Animal Cruelty

In Nagaland, the Kohima administration has previously issued strict warnings against the killing and maltreatment of animals, including stray dogs. These actions are in adherence to the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act. Violators of this act are subject to strict legal consequences under the relevant provisions.

The recent video highlights the need for increased awareness and enforcement of animal protection laws in the region. Authorities are urged to take prompt and decisive measures to prevent such acts of cruelty in the future.

Importantly, Discord clarified that full credit card numbers and passwords were **not** affected by this incident. Users whose ID photos were possibly accessed will receive specific notification from Discord.

### Discord’s Response and Security Measures
In response to the breach, Discord has revoked the third-party support provider’s access to its ticketing system and reported the incident to data protection authorities. The company is also working closely with law enforcement agencies to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Furthermore, Discord has conducted a review of its threat detection systems and tightened security controls over its third-party support providers. These steps underscore Discord’s commitment to protecting user data and maintaining trust across its platform.

Vidarbha in prime position to win Irani Cup 2025: Details

**Vidarbha in Prime Position to Win Irani Cup 2025**
*By Rajdeep Saha | Oct 04, 2025 | 07:59 pm*

Vidarbha have put themselves in a commanding position to win the Irani Cup 2025 by setting Rest of India a challenging target of 361 runs. The match is currently underway at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur.

Starting the day at 96 for two, Vidarbha faced some tough bowling from Anshul Kamboj and Saransh Jain. However, crucial contributions from their lower-middle order helped Vidarbha reach a total of 232 in their second innings.

On the bowling front, Rest of India’s attack, led by Kamboj, impressed on Day 4. Kamboj was the standout bowler for ROI, dismantling Vidarbha’s middle order by taking the wickets of batsmen ranked 3 to 6. He finished with remarkable figures of 4 wickets for 34 runs in just 12 overs.

As Rest of India began their chase of 361 runs, early setbacks came their way. Both openers fell before stumps, with Aryan Juyal bowled by Aditya Thakare and Abhimanyu Easwaran trapped lbw by Harsh Dubey. Easwaran scored 17 off 18 deliveries.

At stumps, Rest of India were 30 for 2, with Ishan Kishan (5 not out) and Rajat Patidar (2 not out) holding the crease. They still require 331 runs with eight wickets in hand heading into the final day.

Vidarbha are aiming to clinch their third Irani Cup title in the last decade, having previously won the trophy in the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons. Despite being bowled out for 232 in their second innings, their first-innings lead of 128 has provided them with a strong cushion.

Now, with a significant target set and wickets in hand, Rest of India will need a remarkable performance on the final day to stop Vidarbha from lifting their third Irani Cup title.

‘Lathi Charge’: Patients Attacked With Stick In Front Of Cops Inside Emergency Ward Of Shamli District Hospital In UP – VIDEO Surfaces

**Panic Erupts at Shamli District Hospital as Attacker Assaults Patients with Stick**

*Shamli (Uttar Pradesh), October 04:*

A shocking incident unfolded at the District Hospital in Uttar Pradesh’s Shamli when a man attacked two patients admitted in the emergency ward with a lathi (stick) in full view of police officers. The entire episode was caught on camera, and the video is now circulating widely on social media.

The footage shows the attacker barging into the emergency ward carrying a long stick and assaulting the two patients lying on their beds. The injured patients can be seen desperately trying to escape as the assailant swings the stick at them.

According to reports, the incident took place on the night of Thursday, October 2. The victims, identified as brothers Furkan and Irfan, had been admitted to the hospital after being brutally attacked earlier that day following a violent clash with a rival group in Thanabhawan.

While the injured brothers were undergoing emergency treatment, a member of the opposing group stormed into the hospital carrying the lathi and launched a violent attack against them inside the ward. This brazen act exposed serious security lapses at the hospital.

Panic and chaos erupted among patients and staff, but a police officer present in the ward managed to stop the attacker and detain him. However, controversy soon followed as Adarsh Mandi Police Station later denied making any arrest, claiming that the accused had fled the scene. This statement directly contradicts the CCTV footage from inside the hospital.

Authorities have reportedly initiated an investigation into the incident to ascertain the facts and address the security concerns raised by this violent episode.

The attack has raised urgent questions about hospital security and the safety of patients, prompting calls for stricter measures to prevent such incidents in the future.

‘Been Plaguing For Last Two Series’: Roston Chase Reflects On West Indies’ Batting Struggles After Innings Defeat In IND vs WI 1st Test

West Indies captain Roston Chase has identified the team’s poor batting performance as the primary reason behind their humiliating defeat in the first Test. “We had a poor batting display. We have not been able to bat for 80 overs. It has been plaguing us for the last two series. We are not getting 250-300 runs,” he admitted.

Reflecting on the decision to bat first after winning the toss, Chase stated that it was not a wrong call. “I don’t think it was a bad decision. It was a good wicket to bat on. We didn’t start well and never put any partnerships in place. That hurt us,” he explained.

Chase also shared the team’s learnings when facing spin bowling in the Test match. “Defence needs to be a bit tighter. It was a wicket that we could bat on. We need to trust our defence and be more solid in it.”

Addressing concerns about the financial challenges impacting West Indies cricket, Chase was candid. “I don’t want to touch too much on it. It’s a struggle in the Caribbean for finances. The system in the Caribbean is a bit poor. The onus is on the players to find some way to get performances,” he remarked.

When asked about the prospects of a revival in West Indies cricket, Chase remained optimistic. “I wouldn’t be a true West Indian if I said no. We have to take some small steps and work towards that. There have been times where other teams have been down and we have been up. So it’s possible,” he added.

Lastly, the West Indies skipper dismissed any suggestions of a lack of desire or motivation within the dressing room. “The guys are eager to play and make an impression and make a living for themselves. So I absolutely don’t see any lack of desire in the dressing room,” he concluded.

Anurag Kashyap says ‘Bandar’ not about ‘MeToo’ or ‘MenToo’

**Anurag Kashyap Says ‘Bandar’ Is Not About ‘MeToo’ or ‘MenToo’**
*By Apoorva Rastogi | Oct 04, 2025, 05:04 PM*

Anurag Kashyap’s latest film, *Bandar* (Monkey in a Cage), was recently showcased at the 50th Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). The film is an unsettling exploration of the ripple effects of the #MeToo movement in digital-age India.

Kashyap opened up about the inspiration behind this provocative film and its lead character, played by Bobby Deol.

### The Inspiration Behind Bandar

Kashyap explained that *Bandar* emerged as a reaction to the rapid changes brought about by social media. He told the Indian Express, “*Bandar* came out of a reaction to what’s happening on social media. Within minutes, people go viral. Similarly, within minutes, they are canceled.”

He emphasized that he was not trying to make a film about #MenToo or #MeToo. “Sometimes people don’t realize what they are doing. Everyone deserves a chance to correct themselves,” Kashyap added.

### A Social Commentary on India’s Judicial System

The movie centers around Samar (played by Bobby Deol), an aging television star who is accused of sexual assault by his former girlfriend, Gayatri (played by Sapna Pabbi).

Kashyap said, “I wanted the film to highlight how broken our system is. Only 27 percent of rape cases are reported. In small towns and villages, such cases often go unreported.”

He also expressed concern that the current laws were a “knee-jerk reaction” to the 2012 Delhi gang rape case and alleged that these laws are being misused to target “moneyed people.”

### Director’s Insight on Casting Bobby Deol

When asked why he chose Bobby Deol for the lead role, Kashyap described *Bandar* as “a coming-of-age story of a man-child” who doesn’t realize his mistakes until almost the end.

He said, “Bobby understands what it is to be a loser,” making him the perfect fit for the character of Samar.

### Release Details

As of now, there is no official release date for *Bandar* in India. Fans await further updates on when the film will be available for viewing.

*Bandar* promises to be a compelling look at the complexities of justice and accountability in contemporary India—through the lens of media, social perceptions, and the flawed legal system.
