The jubilation over Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s (RCB) first-ever Indian Premier League (IPL) title victory on June 3, 2025, turned to tragedy on June 4 when a stampede outside Chinnaswamy Stadium took the lives of 11 people and left more than 47 others injured. Approximately 2–3 lakh supporters flocked to the 35,000-capacity stadium to celebrate the victory of RCB, outstripping security measures. Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah called the incident an “unexpected tragedy” and directed a magisterial probe, to be carried out by the Bengaluru Urban deputy commissioner, with the report due in 15 days.
The opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) attacked the Congress government, raising the issue of police deployment and event authorization. Eyewitnesses and retired police authorities attributed administrative failures, such as ambiguous communication regarding event entry and inadequate crowd management procedures. Uncertainty as to whether the event was ticketed for entry added to the mayhem, with thousands charging the stadium gates. The tragedy has generated a wider debate regarding event management and public safety in India, with demands for accountability and enhanced planning for the sake of preventing such incidents in the future.

Sanjeev Bikhchandani, a co-founder of Ashoka University, has shown frustration with the institution’s problems, threatening a possible exit in an internal email that emerged on June 4, 2025. The email, written in response to an alumnus asking for clarification on the university’s silence regarding the arrest of Professor Ali Khan Mahmudabad, referred to Ashoka as “too much of a headache.” Mahmudabad, chairman of the Political Science Department, was arrested on May 18 due to a social media post on Operation Sindoor, praising the Indian armed forces but questioning symbolic optics and minority marginalization.
The post resulted in two FIRs under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for promoting communal disharmony. Bikhchandani, along with co-founders Ashish Dhawan and Pramath Raj Sinha, declined to defend the personal opinion of Mahmudabad that the university should do, saying social media postings are not academic freedom. Mahmudabad was given interim bail by the Supreme Court on May 21, with the National Human Rights Commission taking suo motu cognizance of the case. The row has heightened questioning of Ashoka’s commitment to free speech, stirring questions regarding its future.

In a shocking turn of events, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrested 40-year-old Somnath of Hisar, Haryana, on June 3, 2025, for allegedly committing rape upon children and producing child sexual abuse material. The operation was exposed through Interpol’s International Child Sexual Exploitation (ICSE) database, which pointed to Somnath’s activities. The CBI carried out an operation, initiated under “Operation Hawk” in March, employing cyber forensic technology to track the crimes to Hisar, identifying several victims.
Officials seized incriminating gadgets from Somnath’s home, establishing that he was involved in generating and distributing explicit material online. The arrest underscores the CBI’s commitment to combating child exploitation, with international cooperation playing a key role. The case has shocked the community, prompting calls for stronger measures to protect vulnerable populations and regulate online platforms.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) sent a stern notice to Turkish Airlines on June 4, 2025, after safety negligence was found on its passenger and cargo flights during inspections. The inspections were held between May 29 and June 2 in Delhi, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Bengaluru and found violations such as the carriage of hazardous goods without valid DGCA approval. There was also inadequate documentation for explosives in cargo manifests, which presented serious dangers.
Moreover, Turkish Airlines did not possess a proper Service Level Agreement (SLA) with its Ground Handling Agent (GHA) at Hyderabad and Bengaluru, and equipment such as ladders and trolleys were not properly monitored. The DGCA, operating in line with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) guidelines, insisted on mandatory compliance with national as well as international norms. The findings highlight the importance of rigorous oversight in aviation safety, with Turkish Airlines now under pressure to address these issues promptly.

The Ministry of Railways announced a major overhaul of its Tatkal ticketing system on June 4, 2025, introducing mandatory e-Aadhaar authentication to curb malpractices. Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw indicated that the modification will focus on real users, with confirmed tickets in case of pressing travel requirements. Aadhaar-linked accounts will have priority booking during the initial 10 minutes of Tatkal sales, a window barred to IRCTC agents.
The move is an extension of current measures, including Aadhaar-linked accounts’ ability to book up to 24 tickets a month. In the last half-year, Railways has blocked more than 24 million users and reported 2 million suspicious accounts for using bots to purchase tickets. The e-Aadhaar system is designed to bring greater transparency and fairness, resolving long-running grievances over ticket availability and enhancing confidence in India’s rail network.

YouTuber Jasbir Singh from Rupnagar, Punjab, was detained in Mohali on June 3, 2025, for suspected participation in a Pakistani spy ring. Running the channel ‘Jaan Mahal,’ Singh had been associated with Pakistani intelligence officer Shakir alias Jutt Randhawa, Haryana-based YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra, and ousted Pakistani official Ehsan-ur-Rahim alias Danish.
The State Special Operations Cell (SSOC) discovered Singh’s presence at a Pakistan National Day celebration in Delhi, where he interacted with Pakistani military officers, and his three visits to Pakistan between 2020-2024. Forensic examination of his devices found several Pakistani-based contacts. Singh tried to delete communication following Malhotra’s arrest, arousing suspicion. A Mohali court sent him to three days’ custody, with investigations continuing. The incident points to the increasing danger of cyber spying, and India is on notice.

BJP chief JP Nadda came down heavily on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on June 4, 2025, for doubting the courage of the Indian Army during Operation Sindoor, an army offensive against terror camps in Pakistan. Gandhi, speaking in Bhopal, claimed Prime Minister Narendra Modi had “surrendered” to U.S. pressure for a ceasefire, prompting Nadda to accuse him of insulting the armed forces and committing “treason.”
Nadda clarified that senior army officers, not government officials, announced the operation’s success, underscoring its credibility. He contrasted Gandhi’s remarks with Pakistan’s silence, noting that no Pakistani official dared question the strike’s impact. The BJP’s sharp response reflects the politically charged atmosphere surrounding India’s military achievements, with Nadda framing Gandhi’s comments as a betrayal of national pride.

U.S. President Donald Trump announced a visa ban on June 4, 2025, targeting new foreign students enrolling at Harvard University, escalating his administration’s crackdown on higher education. The executive order bars entry for those who wish to study or take exchange programs at Harvard, akin to a previous, court-enjoined ban. Trump rationalized the step as justified, while Harvard denounced it as “retaliatory” and First Amendment-violating, and promised to safeguard its foreign students. The move has attracted ire, with critics saying it erodes academic freedom and international cooperation. As lawsuits loom, the prohibition reflects conflicts between U.S. immigration policy and the educational community, with important consequences for international education.

Elon Musk ratcheted up his opposition campaign against President Donald Trump’s $2.4 trillion tax cut bill on June 4, 2025, calling on Americans to call on lawmakers to “kill” the bill. Following the failure to keep a $7,500 EV tax credit intact in the House bill, Musk designated the measure a “disgusting abomination” on X, citing the possibility it could bankrupt the U.S. Public comments by the Tesla CEO, in the wake of his resignation from Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, stretched relations with the White House, which continues to assert the legislation will catalyze economic growth.
House Speaker Mike Johnson scoffed at Musk’s objections, as did Senator Roger Marshall, who minimized his clout. The Congressional Budget Office projected the bill would contribute $2.4 trillion to deficits over ten years, which energized Musk’s resistance. The divide highlights underlying divisions within the Republican Party as Musk’s economic clout hangs over the horizon of the 2026 midterms.
