December 15 – Top Stories You Need to Know
Looking for what happened on December 15? We’ve gathered the biggest headlines that mattered across India, from legal dramas and extreme weather to sports showdowns and entertainment buzz. Whether you skim for a quick update or want a deeper look, this roundup gives you the facts without the fluff.
Key Headlines from Politics and Courts
The Delhi High Court turned down bail for Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam on the UAPA case, keeping them behind bars for more than five years without trial. The court’s 133‑page order called their alleged roles “prima facie grave,” citing speeches and alleged plans like chakka jam. Imam has already taken the battle to the Supreme Court.
In the north, the IMD issued a red alert as relentless rain turned Punjab, Delhi‑NCR and parts of Uttar Pradesh into flood zones. Punjab saw its worst floods since 1988, while a breached drain on the Haryana‑Delhi border forced evacuations in low‑lying colonies. The downpour was driven by a Bay of Bengal low‑pressure system that could push September rainfall beyond the long‑period average.
Meanwhile, Delhi’s Yamuna crept up to 207.44 metres, just shy of its 1978 peak. The rise forced a temporary halt to cremations at Nigambodh Ghat and delayed dozens of flights at IGI Airport. Even though the IMD eased its alert to yellow, traffic snarls and road diversions persisted across the capital.
Weather, Sports, and Entertainment Highlights
On the sports front, IPL 2025 saw KKR take on PBKS at Eden Gardens. The pitch promised true bounce and a bit of evening dew, setting the stage for a gripping chase. Keep an eye on spin battles with Chahal, Narine, and Russell as they could turn the game on its head.
Beyond cricket, the Bay of Bengal’s cyclonic circulation is set to drench 13 states with heavy rain. Two low‑pressure systems will keep the monsoon alive through early September, bringing strong winds, rough seas, and urban flooding risks across eastern, central, and western India.
In entertainment, Tiger Shroff’s Baaghi 4 trailer dropped a darker, more violent vibe, with Sanjay Dutt delivering a menacing turn. The film promises high‑octane stunts and a psychological twist, aiming for a September release.
