The Central Consumer Protection Authority has escalated its investigation into Apple's software warranty terms in India following complaints from iPhone users regarding display glitches. Several consumers reported green, pink, and white lines on screens as well as audio issues after installing the iOS 18 update, incurring repair costs of around 27,000 to 28,000 rupees. The regulator stated that charging users for hardware problems linked to software updates could violate fair trade principles. Apple has rejected the allegations, arguing that excluding software from warranty coverage is a global industry practice and it cannot insure against every technological risk. If found liable, the company could face penalties, refunds, or mandatory changes to its warranty terms.

Gurugram Police, in coordination with Rajasthan Police, detained Kalyan Bainsla from Dausa in connection with the Gurugram hit-and-run case involving a woman biker. The accused fled from Gurugram to Palwal before heading towards Rajasthan as the video of the incident went viral. Police tracked his movements overnight and detained him in Dausa before taking him back to Gurugram for formal arrest under non-bailable sections, including attempt to murder, registered at the Sector 56 police station. The victim's father welcomed the swift police action and the addition of stringent charges, describing the incident as an attempt to murder rather than a routine road accident.

A Public Interest Litigation has been filed in the Karnataka High Court challenging the state government's order restricting the singing of the national song, Vande Mataram, to its first two stanzas at government functions. The state government's directive provides an exception for official events attended by the President, Vice President, Prime Minister, or Governor, where all six stanzas may be sung. The petition, filed by Advocate Girish Bharadwaj, questions whether a state government has the authority to prescribe the form and content of a national symbol through an executive order. The petitioner contends that the order goes against the national interest. The matter is set to be mentioned before the Karnataka High Court.
