The Centre's wildlife panel has approved the establishment of ammunition storage facilities in East Ladakh to enhance military readiness amid ongoing India-China tensions. The new facilities, set to be located at strategic points like Hanle and Photi La near the Line of Actual Control (LAC), address logistical challenges faced by existing storage sites over 250 km away. This move aims to improve operational efficiency and secure a steady supply of ammunition for forward deployments.
The approval paves the way for the creation of Formation Ammunition Storage Facilities (FASF) and underground caverns, crucial for bolstering India's military capabilities. This initiative is part of India's broader strategy to strengthen its security posture in Eastern Ladakh, ensuring forces are well-prepared to handle potential conflicts along the border.

Five members of a family, including three children aged eight, four and one whose bodies were stuffed in sacks and kept in a bed box, were found killed in their home, police said on Friday. Two persons were arrested for the sensational murders that shocked this Uttar Pradesh town.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Several suspects have also been taken into custody for the killing that came to light on Thursday night. The bodies of the parents were wrapped in bedsheets. And all five had deep head injuries and slash marks on their necks. &nbsp; &nbsp; Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Vipin Tada said, "Based on a complaint filed by the relatives of the deceased woman, a case has been registered against three named accused and some unidentified persons. Two named suspects and several others have been taken into custody for questioning." &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Police said the bodies of the husband and wife were found wrapped in bedsheets, while those of their three children were stuffed in the storage compartment of a bed at the family's home in the densely populated Suhail Garden neighbourhood in the Lisari Gate police station area. &nbsp; &nbsp; Tada added that one named suspect is absconding, and police teams have been deployed to arrest him. "All pieces of evidence are being gathered, and the case will be solved soon," he said. &nbsp; &nbsp; The deceased were identified as Moin alias Moinuddin (52), his wife Asma (45), and their daughters Afsah (8), Aziza (4), and Adeeba (1).&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The bodies of the children were found stuffed in sacks and hidden in the bed's storage, the police said, adding all the victims had deep head injuries and slash marks on their necks. &nbsp; &nbsp; According to the Lisari Gate police, Asma's brother, Shamim, lodged a formal complaint late at night. He accused Asma's younger sister-in-law, Nazrana, and her two brothers of involvement in the suspected murders. &nbsp; &nbsp; The SSP, who visited the crime scene Thursday night along with other senior officers, said the family's house was locked from outside when locals and neighbours checked it in the evening. &nbsp; &nbsp; "After gaining access through the roof, they found the bodies," Tada told reporters. "The manner in which the house was locked suggests that the individual involved in the crime may have been someone known to the family."&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The SSP said the preliminary investigations point towards an old enmity as the possible motive behind the incident. "A detailed investigation is underway," he added. &nbsp; &nbsp; The SSP further said the legs of one of the deceased were found tied with a bedsheet, adding a forensic team and senior officers are collecting evidence. &nbsp; &nbsp; The family had recently moved to the area and the police are investigating their background to find out more details.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Moin, who is a mechanic by profession, and Asma had been missing since Wednesday, Tada said. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; According to police, Moin's brother Salim was the first to witness the horrifying scene when he went to check on the family concerned over his brother's whereabouts. &nbsp; &nbsp; Salim arrived at Moin's house with his wife. After several unsuccessful attempts to open the door, they forced entry with the help of neighbours

Gujarat reports its third HMPV case, affecting an eight-year-old boy in Sabarkantha. Testing confirms infection. Authorities stress preventive steps as the virus primarily spreads through droplets, urging public awareness.

HMPV cases rise in Gujarat: 8-year-old boy affected

The third HMPV case in Gujarat involves an eight-year-old from Sabarkantha. Health authorities highlight rigorous testing and preventive measures. Communities are urged to stay vigilant as public health efforts focus on containment.

Gujarat reports its third HMPV case, affecting an eight-year-old boy in Sabarkantha. Testing confirms infection. Authorities stress preventive steps as the virus primarily spreads through droplets, urging public awareness.

An eight-year-old boy from Gujarat&rsquo;s Sabarkantha district has tested positive for human metapneumovirus (HMPV), bringing the total number of cases in the state to three, as reported by authorities on Friday.
The child, who hails from a family of farm workers in Prantij taluka, was initially found positive for HMPV through testing by a private laboratory. Health officials then sent his blood samples for confirmation to a government laboratory. The test results confirmed the infection.
As of now, the boy is receiving treatment at a private hospital in Himmatnagar, where his condition is stable, according to Sabarkantha District Collector Ratankanvar Gadhavicharan. However, the doctors at the hospital stated that the child is on a ventilator.
This case marks the third reported in the state, following Gujarat's first HMPV case on January 6. The first patient, a two-month-old boy from Rajasthan, was diagnosed with HMPV and was later discharged after treatment at a local hospital.
On Thursday, a new case was confirmed in Ahmedabad city, involving an 80-year-old man suffering from asthma. He is currently being treated at a private hospital.
HMPV, first discovered in 2001, is a member of the Paramyxoviridae family, closely related to Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). The virus spreads through respiratory droplets produced by coughing or sneezing, as well as from touching contaminated surfaces or coming into direct contact with infected individuals. Symptoms of HMPV include fever, nasal congestion, runny nose, and cough.

Amid Prashant Kishor's fast unto death over alleged irregularities in the Bihar PSC exams, his Jan Suraaj Party has moved the Patna High Court, seeking cancellation of the competitive tests, his counsel said on Friday. &nbsp; &nbsp; Advocate Pranav Kumar said the petition, highlighting "irregularities in the Combined Competitive Exams held on December 13", has been posted for hearing on January 15. &nbsp; &nbsp; "The case was mentioned today before the single-judge bench of Justice Arvind Singh Chandel. The matter has been posted for hearing on January 15," he told PTI-Bhasha. &nbsp; &nbsp; "We have highlighted large-scale irregularities in the exams held across the state, citing instances of people carrying mobile phones inside examination halls where there were no jammers. At many places, several examinees solved their question papers huddled together," he alleged. &nbsp; &nbsp; Kumar claimed that "such irregularities" were reported from many examination centres and not just Bapu Pariksha Parisar where many candidates had boycotted the tests, alleging that the question paper had been leaked.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "Hence, we have prayed for cancellation of the entire examination besides action against officials who may be responsible for the irregularities," the lawyer said. &nbsp; &nbsp; Notably, about five lakh candidates had appeared at more than 900 centres across the state for the exams. &nbsp; &nbsp; Re-examination was held for 1,200 candidates assigned to Bapu Pariksha Parisar centre &nbsp; &nbsp; The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) has been denying the allegations with the claim that there was a "conspiracy" to get the exams cancelled. &nbsp; &nbsp; The commission's decision to order a re-exam for a select group of candidates has been resented by others who have launched a stir, alleging that they have been deprived of a "level-playing field". &nbsp; &nbsp; Kishor, who has thrown his weight behind the agitation, began a fast unto death on January 2 and refused to give up, despite the advice of doctors to resume normal diet. &nbsp; &nbsp; His party has said he could consider discontinuing the fast if Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar agreed to break the deadlock by having a word with a delegation of civil service aspirants.

The Supreme Court has refused to examine pleas challenging the delimitation clause in the 2023 Nari Shakti Vandan Act, which reserves one-third of seats for women in Lok Sabha and state assemblies.

Supreme Court refuses to hear pleas against 2023 Women Reservation Act

The court dismissed a petition by Jaya Thakur and advised NFIW to approach other forums for its challenge. The law's implementation will depend on the next census and delimitation process.

The Supreme Court on Friday refused to examine pleas challenging the delimitation clause in the 2023 Nari Shakti Vandan Act which reserves one-third seats for women in Lok Sabha and state assemblies.
A bench of Justices Bela M Trivedi and P B Varale was not inclined to entertain the petitions filed by one Jaya Thakur and the National Federation of Indian Women (NFIW) under Article 32 of the Constitution.
The bench pointed out Jaya Thakur's petition challenged the bill, which had become the Act, whereas the NFIW challenged the delimitation clause of the law.
While Thakur's plea was dismissed as infructuous, the court was not inclined to examine NFIW's plea under Article 32 saying it could move the high court or any other appropriate forum.
The NFIW challenged the constitutional validity of Article 334A (1) or Clause 5 of the 2023 Act where it rendered delimitation of constituencies a prerequisite to the implementation of the Act.
On November 3, 2023, the top court while hearing Thakur&rsquo;s plea said it would be "very difficult" for the court to strike down a part of the women's reservation law which would come into effect after the census.
It refused to issue a notice on Thakur's plea and asked the counsel for the petitioner to serve the copy on the lawyer representing the Centre.
On September 21, 2023, the watershed bill to reserve one-third of the seats in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies for women received the parliamentary nod.
The constitutional amendment bill was passed by the Lok Sabha with near unanimity and the Rajya Sabha with unanimity.
The law would take some time before implementation as the next census and the subsequent delimitation exercise -- redrawing of Lok Sabha and assembly constituencies -- would ascertain the particular seats being earmarked for women.
The quota for women in Lok Sabha and assemblies would continue for 15 years and Parliament can later extend the benefit period.
While there was quota within quota for women from scheduled castes and scheduled tribes, the opposition demanded the benefit to be extended to other backward classes.
There were efforts to pass the bill in Parliament since 1996 and a last such attempt was made in 2010, when Rajya Sabha approved a bill for women's reservation, but it could not be passed in Lok Sabha.
Data showed women MPs account for nearly 15 per cent of the Lok Sabha strength whereas their representation was below 10 per cent in many state assemblies.
On September 29, 2023, President Droupadi Murmu gave her assent to the bill.

Supreme Court's ruling allows students affected by JEE eligibility change to register, emphasizing fairness and transparency in educational administration.

SC allows dropout students (Nov 5-18) to register for JEE Advanced 2024

In a pivotal ruling, the Supreme Court supports students affected by JEE Advanced eligibility changes, stressing the importance of upholding initial commitments and fairness in educational policy.

SC allows students who dropped out between Nov 5-18, 2024, to register for JEE Advanced. The court ruled they shouldn't be penalized for acting on initial eligibility announcement by the Joint Admission Board (JAB).

In a recent ruling, the Supreme Court allowed students who dropped out of their courses between November 5 and 18, 2024, to register for JEE (Advanced). This decision came after the Joint Admission Board (JAB) initially announced on November 5 that students who passed their Class 12 exams in 2023, 2024, or 2025 would be eligible for the exam. However, the board amended the eligibility criteria on November 19, stating that only students who had cleared their exams in 2024 or 2025 could apply.
Some students who had dropped out between November 5 and 18 claimed they had qualified based on the original announcement. The Supreme Court ruled that these students should not be penalised for relying on the initial information provided.
The bench, comprising Justices B R Gavai and A G Masih, highlighted that the November 5 press release made a clear promise regarding eligibility, and this should not be retracted to the students&rsquo; detriment. The court stressed that students who dropped out with the understanding that they could appear for the exam should not suffer because the promise was later withdrawn.
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing the Board, argued that while students typically have only two chances to sit for JEE (Advanced), this year&rsquo;s exception was made and later rescinded in the students' best interest. The court, however, clarified that it was not questioning the merit of the two-year eligibility limit but allowing students who withdrew between November 5 and 18 to register for JEE (Advanced).

The Supreme Court's intervention in Jama Masjid's well dispute in Sambhal highlights the tension between cultural heritage and religious claims, seeking peace.

SC issues notice on Sambhal Jama Masjid Well dispute, orders status quo

In a landmark decision, the Supreme Court addresses the Jama Masjid well dispute, emphasizing the importance of preserving heritage amidst religious tensions.

The Supreme Court issued a notice on a plea by the Jama Masjid committee, ordering status quo on a private well near the mosque&rsquo;s entrance. The court directed authorities to file a report in two weeks and forbade any action without permission.

The Supreme Court issued a notice on Friday regarding a plea from the Jama Masjid management committee in Sambhal, ordering status quo on a private well located near the mosque entrance. The court directed that no actions be taken regarding the well without prior approval from the court and instructed authorities to submit a status report within two weeks.
The plea challenged a November 19, 2024 order by the Senior Division Civil Judge of Sambhal, which permitted the appointment of an advocate commissioner for surveying the mosque. The committee argued that the survey led to violence and loss of life, necessitating urgent intervention from the Supreme Court.
Senior Advocate Huzefa Ahmadi, representing the mosque committee, stressed the historical importance of the well, which has been used by the mosque for water for generations. He also raised concerns over a notice referring to the site as "Hari Mandir" and any plans for religious activities at the well, which the court stated must not be allowed.
The bench, headed by Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna, maintained that no action could be taken regarding the well without the court&rsquo;s permission and ordered that the status quo remain. Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain, representing the Hindu side, argued that the well is outside the mosque&rsquo;s boundaries and has been used for worship. However, the mosque management clarified that the well is partly inside and partly outside the mosque premises, presenting a Google Maps image as evidence.
The plea filed by the mosque committee contested the local court's order, which had allowed the second survey of the mosque and led to violence. The committee requested the District Magistrate of Sambhal be instructed to maintain the status quo and not take any further actions without court approval.

Delhi Police have detained a Class 12 student who allegedly sent bomb threats to 23 schools in the national capital to avoid school examinations. 

Delhi Police detains Class 12 student for bomb threats to 23 schools

Delhi Police have detained a Class 12 student who allegedly sent bomb threats to 23 schools in the national capital to avoid school examinations.&nbsp;

Delhi Police has detained a Class 12 student for allegedly sending bomb threats to more than 23 schools in the national capital over the past few weeks as he did not want to write his exams, sources said on Friday.
Around 10 educational institutes received bomb threats on Thursday, the latest in a series of such incidents in the city.
The sources said the south district police apprehended the Class 12 student, a minor, Thursday evening in connection with the threats.
Earlier in the day, officials said police will address a press conference at its headquarters to share more details but it was later cancelled.
The sources said the accused had sent bomb threats to 23 different schools as he did not want to take school examinations. He used this method to trigger panic.
"The student got the idea from previous incidents and hatched a plan to change his IP address by using Virtual Private Network (VPN) and send threat e-mails to different schools. Further investigation is underway," said a source.

Vishal Deep's unexpected release underscores critical lapses by CBI, raising questions on investigative diligence.

Prasar Bharati launches 'Kumbhvani' FM channel dedicated to Maha Kumbh

Officer Vishal Deep, accused of bribery, surprisingly released due to CBI procedural flaws. His case questions law enforcement and integrity.

Prasar Bharati launched 'Kumbhvani' FM channel ahead of Maha Kumbh 2025, airing from Jan 10 to Feb 26. It will broadcast live events, religious stories, and connect remote areas with the spirit of the Kumbh.

Public broadcaster Prasar Bharati's radio division Akashvani on Friday launched 'Kumbhvani'-- an FM channel dedicated to disseminating information related to the Maha Kumbh 2025, an official statement said. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath inaugurated the FM channel at the Circuit House during the second day of his Prayagraj tour ahead of the mega religious congregation. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"Prasar Bharati has launched the OTT-based Kumbhvani FM channel to disseminate comprehensive information about the Maha Kumbh. Broadcasting at a frequency of 103.5 MHz, the channel will be on air from January 10 to February 26, operating daily from 5.55 am to 10.05 pm," the UP government said in the statement. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;CM Adityanath expressed confidence that 'Kumbhvani' would not only reach new heights of popularity but also extend the spirit of the Maha Kumbh to remote villages where many people, despite their desire, cannot physically attend the event. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;He emphasised that the channel would serve as a vital medium to deliver all relevant information about the Maha Kumbh to these distant communities. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"Such efforts would enable those in far-flung areas to experience and understand the grandeur of the Maha Kumbh," he said, noting the importance of live broadcasting. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Adityanath said this would allow them to share the pride of this grand celebration of 'Sanatan Dharma' with future generations. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;He also thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting and Prasar Bharati for their efforts in launching Kumbhvani. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Adityanath noted that Akashvani was the first medium to connect people with folk traditions and culture. Recalling his childhood memories, he shared how he would listen intently to broadcasts of the Ramcharitmanas on Akashvani. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;As technology advanced, Doordarshan introduced visual mediums, allowing people to experience these cultural narratives visually, he said. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;He said that while many private channels later emerged, Prasar Bharati took proactive steps to adapt to the evolving media landscape. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Considering the challenges of reaching remote areas with limited connectivity, Prasar Bharati launched the special FM channel Kumbhvani during the Kumbh festivals in 2013, 2019 and now again in 2025, ensuring that the spirit of the Maha Kumbh reaches even the most distant regions, he added. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"The Maha Kumbh is not merely an event but a monumental celebration of Sanatan Dharma's pride, glory, and unity," Adityanath remarked, describing it as "a grand confluence where the essence of Sanatan Dharma can be witnessed." &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;He urged those who view Sanatan Dharma through a narrow lens or those who perpetuate divisions based on communal differences, caste or untouchability to visit the Kumbh. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"Here, there are no barriers of sect, caste or gender. People from all walks of life gather to bathe in the same waters, united in faith, carrying the message of Sanatan pride to the entire world," he said. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;This, he said, is the spiritual message of the Kumbh -- a global congregation that symbolises harmony and inclusivity. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The CM also highlighted the growing interest of international visitors who seek to understand the profound depths of spirituality by immersing themselves in the Maha Kumbh. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"It is a remarkable moment, and Prasar Bharati has beautifully captured its essence through Kumbhvani," he said. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The Kumbhvani FM channel will not only broadcast live coverage of the daily events but will also share religious references and stories related to the Mahakumbh in remote villages, making the spiritual essence of the event accessible to all, according to the statement. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Reflecting on the power of media to amplify cultural pride, he recalled how Doordarshan's broadcast of the Ramayana during the Covid-19 lockdown saw a significant resurgence in viewership. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"Today, FM channels are immensely popular among the youth, and Kumbhvani will undoubtedly benefit from this trend," he added. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Also present at the occasion were Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Dr L Murugan, UP's deputy chief minister Brajesh Pathak, Jal Shakti Minister Swatantradev Singh, Industrial Development Minister Nand Gopal Gupta Nandi, Om Prakash Rajbhar, chief secretary Manoj Kumar Singh and Prasar Bharati Board Chairman Navneet Sehgal.

ED official Vishal Deep released over lapses in CBI arrest

A special court criticized the CBI's arrest of ED official Vishal Deep, citing critical procedural lapses. Deep was released on a personal bond of Rs 50,000 after the court ruled the charges against him were not well founded.

A special court has pointed out significant procedural errors in the arrest of Vishal Deep, an Enforcement Directorate (ED) official, by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) over alleged bribery. The court ordered his immediate release.
Special Judge B Y Phad rejected the CBI's request for transit remand, finding the allegations against Deep &ldquo;not well-founded.&rdquo; Deep, the assistant director of the ED&rsquo;s Shimla unit, was arrested on Tuesday in Mumbai for allegedly demanding a Rs 1.1 crore bribe from Rajnish Bansal, chairman of the Himalayan group of professional institutions, in exchange for not arresting him in an ongoing money laundering probe.
The court noted that the CBI failed to produce the case diary, a critical document for transparency and procedural legitimacy. This, the judge said, undermines the prosecution's case. The court also pointed out the failure of the investigation officer to serve an arrest warrant, making the arrest &ldquo;procedurally unsound.&rdquo;
The judge found that the CBI&rsquo;s actions were marked by several fundamental lapses, including procedural violations and inconsistencies, which led to the ruling that Deep&rsquo;s detention was illegal. Deep was granted release on a personal recognizance bond of Rs 50,000.
The CBI had alleged that Deep received a bribe of Rs 60 lakh near Panchkula in Haryana on December 22, 2024, and then evaded authorities by changing his location and phone. He was eventually traced and arrested in Mumbai on Tuesday.

Explore the intense political battle in Delhi as Kejriwal accuses BJP of voter roll manipulations, sparking protests and debates on election integrity.

 Delhi BJP protests Kejriwal's 'fake voter' claims ahead of February Assembly polls

Delve into Delhi's election drama where Kejriwal accuses BJP of voter manipulations. Witness the political clash unravel in the capital.

Delhi BJP protests against Kejriwal's claims of fake voter registrations from UP and Bihar. Kejriwal lodged a complaint to the Election Commission, accusing BJP of manipulating the electoral rolls ahead of the Assembly elections.

The Delhi BJP staged a protest on Friday, accusing the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of making false claims about voter registration from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections.
Protesters gathered outside Arvind Kejriwal's residence, raising slogans against the Delhi CM. Some attempted to breach security barricades, prompting the police to use water cannons to disperse the crowd.
The protest followed Kejriwal's allegations on Thursday, where he accused the BJP of manipulating the electoral rolls by registering "fake" voters in his New Delhi constituency. In a complaint to the Election Commission, Kejriwal raised concerns over the addition of 13,000 new voters between December 15 and January 8, claiming many were brought in from neighboring states to create fraudulent voter registrations.
Kejriwal stated that this action was a deliberate attempt to undermine the election process. His comments were met with strong condemnation from BJP leaders.
The Delhi Assembly elections are scheduled for February 5, with vote counting set for February 8.

Delhi BJP held a protest against AAP's allegations of fake voter registrations ahead of the upcoming assembly elections. 

BJP holds protests near Kejriwal's residence over 'fake' voter registrations

The protest, centered on claims of "fake voters" from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, escalated with demonstrators attempting to breach security near Kejriwal&rsquo;s residence. Police used water cannons to disperse the crowd, detaining over 20 protesters.

The Delhi BJP held a protest on Friday against the AAP for allegedly making "fake" claims about registration of voters from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar in the electoral rolls ahead of assembly polls.
Hundreds of protesters holding placards like "Purvanchal Virodhi Kejriwal" raised slogans against AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal, with some attempting to breach the security barricades near his residence.
Slogans such as "Litti chokha khayenge, Kejriwal bhagayenge", "Chhathi Maiya ki jai", and "Purvanchal Virodhi Kejriwal murdabad" echoed during the protest.
A protester, speaking to PTI, said, "Purvanchalis have been called fake voters. This anger will not subside until we remove Kejriwal from here."
Another protester added, "He has humiliated us. During Anna Hazare's movement, he used us and made us endure police lathis. And now, he is calling us fake voters."
During the protest, the demonstrators attempted to breach security barricades and move closer to Kejriwal's residence.
However, the police used water cannons to disperse the crowd and prevented them from advancing further.
According to police officials, more than 20 protesters were detained for protesting without valid permission.
"They were bundled into police buses and taken to different police stations," a senior police officer said.
BJP MP Manoj Tiwari said, "Arvind Kejriwal has always insulted the Purvanchali community. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he made several objectionable statements, and now he has referred to them as 'fake voters'. We will not forget this insult, and neither will the people of Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, and Bihar. This betrayal will remain etched in the memory of Delhiites as well."
Kejriwal on Thursday accused BJP of manipulating the electoral rolls by registering "fake" voters from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar in his constituency, New Delhi, ahead of assembly polls.

Addressing the media after lodging the complaint, Kejriwal said, "Apparently many of these voters have been brought in from Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and other neighbouring states to create fake voter registrations. This manipulation undermines the election process."
Kejriwal's remarks sparked an immediate backlash from BJP with party leaders condemning his comments.

Mehbooba Mufti links LA wildfires with Gaza destruction

PDP leader Mehbooba Mufti highlights the shocking devastation caused by the LA wildfires, urging people to reflect on the destruction in Gaza, which she attributes to actions by "a rogue Israel government."

Mufti expressed her shock at the LA fires and noted that they serve as a stark reminder of the consequences of environmental negligence. However, she also pointed out that the tragedy in Gaza is not a natural disaster, but the result of actions by "a rogue Israel government," with many in LA, including celebrities, appearing indifferent or complicit.
"Hopefully, the people witnessing the destruction in LA will gain a deeper understanding of the profound impact that comes when homes and lives are torn apart," Mufti, a former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir, said in her post on X. Massive wildfires that engulfed whole neighborhoods and displaced thousands in Los Angeles have killed at least 10 people, authorities said, as California's National Guard soldiers readied to hit the streets to help quell disorder. Meanwhile, the health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza reported on Thursday that 70 people had died in the past 24 hours, pushing the total death toll in the region to 46,006.
In a statement, the ministry added that more than 109,378 individuals had been injured since the conflict between Israel and Hamas began over 15 months ago, following the Palestinian group's attack on October 7, 2023.
