In the quiet lanes of Dhada Khurd, a village in Hoshiarpur, Punjab, the beats of celebration have been echoing for days. The reason?

As he wore the No. 10 jersey for the All Whites in their 2-2 draw against Iran in Los Angeles, thousands of miles away in his maternal village, residents gathered to cheer for a player they proudly consider one of their own.

The American Dream Reversed: How an Indian-Origin CEO Became One of 17 Targets in Trump's Largest-Ever Citizenship Crackdown

In what officials are calling the largest denaturalization campaign in recent US history, the Department of Justice has filed proceedings to strip citizenship from 17 naturalized Americans—including Neeraj Sharma, a 50-year-old Indian-origin businessman and former CEO of a New Jersey-based staffing firm. The DOJ alleges that Sharma submitted 11 fraudulent H-1B visa petitions with forged executive signatures and fabricated documents, then concealed his misconduct when applying for citizenship in 2017. As the Trump administration signals a "zero-tolerance policy" toward immigration fraud, the case has sent shockwaves through the Indian diaspora and raised urgent questions about the fragility of the American Dream.

In one of the most anticipated IPO filings of the year, quick-commerce giant Zepto has submitted its updated draft red herring prospectus (UDRHP) with SEBI, revealing a company at a crossroads.

The IPO comprises a fresh issue of ₹8,010 crore and an offer-for-sale by early investors, with the total issue size expected to reach between ₹11,000 crore and ₹12,000 crore. Founders Aadit Palicha and Kaivalya Vohra are not selling any shares, signaling their long-term commitment—even as the company warns investors that there is "no assurance growth will translate into profitability."
