With straight three defeats in three games, new Mumbai Indians skipper Hardik Pandya hasn't hoped for this poor start in the 17th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Hardik has been subjected to not only plenty of online trolling and abuse but also faced booing at stadiums during matches. Meanwhile, Former India skipper and Delhi Capitals' Director of Cricket Sourav Ganguly on April 06 came out in support of Hardik Pandya. He said that the fans behavior has not been pleasing and urged them not to boo the new MI skipper. Ganguly pointed out that it is not Hardik's fault if he has replaced the much-loved Rohit Sharma. Hardik returned to Mumbai Indians (MI) as a captain from Gujarat Titans (GT), replacing the five-time IPL winner Rohit Sharma. Since the start of the 17th edition of the IPL Mumbai Indians is at the bottom place, having lost all their matches. Earlier, Pandya also offered prayers at Somnath temple on April 05 after MI lost their last match against Rajasthan Royals by 6 wickets.

PM Modi implemented CAA on March 11. Union Minister for Housing & Urban Affairs, Hardeep Singh Puri took a sharp jibe at the political leaders opposing Citizenship Amendment Act. He said, “There are persecuted minorities in some of our neighbouring countries- Buddhists, Christians, Jains, Hindus, Sikhs, among others... In 1947, the population of Hindus in Pakistan was 24% which stands at 1% today. In erstwhile East Pakistan, there was a certain Hindu population but now there are just 7%. Some of these people who came to India before 2014 are being given a right. The people who are suddenly worried that these few immigrants will take away all jobs and resources need to know that our population is 140 crores and only 1000 people have registered on the portal so far. The number of people who had applied for citizenship under the Citizenship Act of 1955 is also just 4000. What is this completely distorted picture which is being presented? This is not about religion.
