Now they have to keep those concessions, but there won't be any nuclear weapons. We're going to get what I call'dust,'enriched material, what I call nuclear dust. We're going to get what the British have said for a long time."

Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto Admires Indian PM Narendra Modi, Credits Him for Copied Policies

Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto Admires Indian PM Narendra Modi, Credits Him for Copied Policies

Jakarta [Indonesia], July 7 (ANI): Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto on Tuesday described Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a leader he deeply admires, saying he had studied and adopted several of PM Modi’s policies. Speaking at the Indian diaspora event in Jakarta, President Prabowo referred to Indonesia’s deep connection with Indian culture and said the country’s language draws heavily from Sanskrit. The Indonesian President, who spoke before PM Modi, said Indonesians must learn from the experience of India and the civilization, its culture are strongly influenced by Indian civilization. “I don’t want to be involved in domestic Indian politics. I’m a friend of all Indians but I want to admit one thing and my close associates and colleagues will testify that I am a great admirer of Narendra Modi ji. I’m not a professional politician. The proof that I’m not a professional politician is I took part in five general elections. I lost four times… Even before I became President, I studied the policies of the Prime Minister (Narendra Modi) and because there are no copyright, I copied many of his policies. But, Prime Minister Modi graciously, allowed me to copy his policies. So I cannot be sued in any court,” PM Modi said. “Indonesians must learn from the experience of India. Our civilization, our culture are strongly influenced by Indian civilization. Our language is around 50% from Sanskrit. Many of our names are Sanskrit names. Therefore, there is this closeness and, we welcome more close cooperation,” he added. President Subianto said he has Indian DNA. “Just before I made my state visit to India, I had a what is called a genome sequencing test. I tested my DNA and I found out I had Indian DNA. And that’s why I think every time I hear some music, especially Indian music, I find my body moving,” he said. “My ministers, my generals, they all like to dance, they all like to sing. Maybe most of them have Indian DNA. Most of my ministers, they sing Indian songs very well,” he added. The Indonesian leader lauded India’s unity in diversity and peaceful transition of power. “We are very closely learning from the Indian Election Commission of India and frankly, we see India, a country of 1.4 billion people. Many ethnic groups like us, many different regional languages, but managing so many years of peaceful transition of government in many states and in the union of India itself,” he said. “This is a remarkable achievement. I am also studying this and following the remarkable achievements of India,” he added. (ANI) Source The article has been published through a syndicated feed.

Cactus Janta Party: Lakhshya Lakey Launches Political Organization to Amplify Marginalized Voices

Cactus Janta Party: Lakhshya Lakey Launches Political Organization to Amplify Marginalized Voices

Anti-caste educator Lakhshya Lakey, popularly known as @lakhshya_speaks , has floated Cactus Janta Party, which, according to him, is a “political front for Dalits, Adivasis, Bahujans and every community excluded by caste and hierarchy.” Lakhshya Lakey is a graduate of the Indian Institutes of Management (IIM). He proudly calls himself an Ambedkarite and has 676K Instagram followers. He shared the official Instagram page of Cactus Janta Party ( cactus_janta_party ) which, with one post, has close to 2,500 followers. The page is described as a political organisation with “A platform of the denied, by the denied, for the Dalit-Bahujan-Adivasi.” The post shares a video clip of a digital media creator, Ajeet Bharti, who recently mocked the Dalit community. He was speaking at a function organised by Delhi Union. “To say all this, Dalits were not allowed to drink water, were you a cactus?” Taking a cue from Abhijit Dipke, the founder of Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), Lakshya has started his own Cactus Janta Party. Unlike Dipke, who repeatedly maintained that the CJP is not a political party, Lakshya says the Cactus Janta Party is a political outfit. Through his content, Lakshya educates his followers about caste discrimination and atrocities in the country, causing him to face significant online abuse from those uncomfortable with discussion on caste and reservations. “We exist to amplify voices that caste society tries to silence. No more speaking for us. We will speak for ourselves. Jai Bhim,” concludes the video.

Telangana Union Leader's Name Deleted from Electoral Rolls: 'I'm Worried About My Citizenship'

Telangana Union Leader's Name Deleted from Electoral Rolls: 'I'm Worried About My Citizenship'

The Founding President of Telangana Gig and Platform Workers Union (TGPWU), Shaik Salauddin, has alleged that his name has been deleted from the electoral rolls. During a public meeting on July 4, organised at the Sundarayya Vignyana Kendram public library in Hyderabad, he said that despite having voted four times, he found that his name was deleted. Salauddin said when the Special Intensive Revision started in Telangana, he checked his voter details online on the official Election Commission website. “My name was not there,” he told The News Minute . Initially, he brushed it off, assuming there was “some technical glitch.” He found it suspicious when everyone in his family received an enumeration form except him. “When I approached my Booth Level Officer (BLO), he said he wasn’t sure why my form didn’t arrive,” said the 40-year-old trade unionist. As a resident of the Prem Nagar colony, Salauddin’s name was on the Amberpet constituency’s voter list. The BLO informed Salauddin that his vote had been transferred to a different house before being completely deleted. According to Salauddin, the only solution given to him was to fill Form 6, used for the inclusion of a first-time voter or when shifting to a new constituency. “I have neither shifted, nor am I a first time voter. I will fill Form 6, that’s not an issue. But I am an old voter, why should I be considered a new voter now?” he asked. The TGPWU president said leaders become MLAs, MPs, mayors because of the vote he cast. “Considering how SIR has played out, I worry that my citizenship will also be subject to questioning,” he said. “I was part of the Telangana agitation and fought for statehood. But now, if I want to apply for a passport, if I want to contest in future polls, I have no proof that I am a longstanding citizen,” Salauddin said.

Telangana Minister Accuses MLA of Breaching Protocol, Demands Disciplinary Action

Telangana Minister Accuses MLA of Breaching Protocol, Demands Disciplinary Action

Telangana Endowments Minister Konda Surekha on Tuesday, July 7, shot a letter to Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy alleging breach of protocol by Ghanpur Station Assembly MLA Kadiyam Srihari. She accused him of conducting a review meeting with her department officers without her knowledge. “This is alarming and disturbing. How can an MLA bypass the Minister and issue directions to officials on matters relating to Endowments lands and other departmental issues?” read her letter. Reports suggest the review meeting was held on Monday and she was informed the following day. He discussed issues related to temples falling in his Assembly constituency. He also directed officials to furnish a copy of the Warangal Master Plan “It is a clear violation of Rules of Business and an encroachment on ministerial authority,” she said, demanding disciplinary action against Kadiyam Srihari, terming it a deliberate move to belittle her and her position. The outburst from Surekha comes amid the alleged ongoing rift between her and Congress legislators from the erstwhile Warangal district. Kadiyam Srihari is one of the ten turncoat MLAs who, in the 2023 Assembly Elections, won on a Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) ticket, but later defected to the Congress. The BRS submitted a disqualification petition against him to the Telangana Assembly Speaker Gaddam Prasad Kumar under the Anti-Defection Law. On March 11, the Speaker dismissed all petitions, allowing Srihari to retain his seat.

Maharashtra Government Introduces Bill to Regulate Dance Bars and Prevent License Abuse

Maharashtra Government Introduces Bill to Regulate Dance Bars and Prevent License Abuse

The government is looking hard at dance bars in Maharashtra. Devendra Fadnavis's government has introduced a new bill in the assembly, so that people who run dance bars can not take advantage of the law. Now many bars and hotels run dance bars by taking the license of orchestra or live music. They get this license easily under the Maharashtra Police Act, but later dance is also done there against the rules. Now the government wants to change this system. According to the new bill, orchestra or live music in hotels, bars and restaurants will no longer be allowed under the Police Act, but under the Dance Bar Act of 2016. Minister Pankaj Bhoir has introduced a bill in the assembly related to this. Under this, the process of obtaining a license for live music performance and orchestra in hotels, restaurants and bars is proposed to be taken out of the'Maharashtra Police Act '. Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had also said that some people are taking advantage of this legal loophole and that the government will stop their dance bar owners from using the law.

US Considers New Tariffs on 60 Countries Over Forced Labor Concerns

US Considers New Tariffs on 60 Countries Over Forced Labor Concerns

Under US President Donald Trump, another potential round of tariffs could hit exports to about 60 countries, including India. In fact, the US has begun a three-day hearing on a proposal to impose new import tariffs on these countries due to concerns that they are not doing enough to stop goods made with forced labor from reaching global supply chains. India has objected to the findings of the US Trade Representative (USTR) and has sought an end to the investigation. The investigation began in March 2026 and studied situations where forced labor is used directly in manufacturing. As well as cases where countries fail to curb imports of goods made with forced labor and use them in goods exported to the US. In early June, the US House of Representatives (USTR) placed additional tariffs on imports from India and 59 other countries.

Macron Reaffirms French Support for Syrian People Amid Ongoing Turmoil

Damascus: French President Emmanuel Macron has reaffirmed France’s steadfast commitment to the Syrian people. He issued a powerful message of solidarity during his visit to the nation. In a post on X, the President highlighted the resilience of the Syrian population in the face of ongoing turmoil. He emphasised that their core desires for a stable future remain unshakable. “Nothing can smother the aspiration of Syrian people of all genders to live in a fully sovereign, safe, pluralistic, and united Syria,” he wrote. During his current diplomatic mission, President Macron noted that he had the opportunity to engage with a broad spectrum of Syrian society. Describing the encounter as a meeting with “Syria in all its diversity,” he expressed profound admiration for the spirit of the people he encountered. “This morning I met Syria in all its diversity. I saw dignity, courage, and determination. My visit continues,” he remarked. His remarks come as several explosions were heard in Damascus, Al Jazeera reported. Footage accessed by Al Jazeera showed plumes of smoke rising in the sky. The cause of the blasts was not immediately clear and there was no immediate information about casualties. Two explosions were reportedly heard near a hotel where Macron was meant to be staying during a visit to the capital. Authorities sealed off roads after the explosions, as per Al Jazeera. Macron on Monday (local time) reaffirmed France’s support for the Syrian people. He also called for a sovereign, united and peaceful Syria as he arrived in Damascus on his first official visit to the country. The event marks the first official visit to Syria by a serving European Union head of state. According to France 24, Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa has been working to restore the country’s international standing. He is also trying to revive its struggling economy following the ouster of longtime ruler Bashar al-Assad in December 2024. Macron’s visit marks the first by a French president since Nicolas Sarkozy travelled to Syria in 2009. This was before Assad’s crackdown on pro-democracy protests in 2011 triggered a civil war that claimed more than half a million lives. The war also left much of the country’s infrastructure and industry in ruins, as reported by France 24. Discussions are expected to focus on Syria’s reconstruction and potential investments. However, French businesses remain cautious about returning to the country, as reported by France 24. (ANI) Also Read: Saudi Arabia condemns terror plots targeting Morocco, reaffirms solidarity

BJP Leaders Prioritize Factionalism Over Development in Rewari: National Congress Leader

Rewari: National Secretary of All India National Congress and former MLA Chiranjiv Rao said that the development of Rewari and South Haryana has become a victim of factionalism, arrogance and so-called protocol politics of BJP leaders today. BJP MPs and MLAs are keeping distance from each other's programs. People of the district are grinding in the fight of BJP leaders. Chiranjiv Rao said that the Union Agriculture Minister and Haryana Chief Minister were present in the Khet Bachao program held recently in Bawal Assembly constituency. It was a big opportunity for South Haryana. If all the public representatives of the district raise their voice in the area, then many important announcements could be made for Rewari, Bawal, Kosli and the whole of South Haryana. But due to the mutual tussle and protocol politics of BJP leaders, Union Minister Rao Inderjit Singh did not come to the program. The three MLAs of Rewari district also did not come and later it was called a matter of protocol.

Pakistan's Mediation Role in Iran-US Tensions Raises Questions

The role of Pakistan, the neighboring country playing the role of mediator between Iran and America, has come under question. Because the most important thing for mediation is to follow the principle of impartiality. But Pakistan does not seem to be doing so. One of Pakistan's actions has been questioned by its most special country, the United States. Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has arrived at the funeral ceremony of Iran's former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei. During this time Pakistan's Prime Minister praised Khamenei and gave him the status of being great. This has hit America hard. Actually, the whole controversy is about a video where Shehbaz Sharif came to pay tribute to Khamenei in Tehran. During this time, he said that the world will always remember him. Brothers and sisters of Iran lost their lives in the war. Pakistan and Iran are friends. We will move forward together in every situation. Pakistan PM Imran Khan and Pakistan's Foreign Minister Shahbaz Sharif called him a'great scholar '.

AAP Leader Accuses Central Government of Imposing E-20 Petrol on People

Amar Ujala Bureau Delhi: The tussle between the Aam Aadmi Party and the central government has intensified on the issue of e-20 petrol. AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday accused the central government of imposing e-20 petrol on the people. He said that if the use of e-20 petrol reduces the mileage of a vehicle or damages the engine and other parts, then the responsibility should be fixed. At a press conference at the party headquarters, Kejriwal alleged that the central government is propagating that there is no problem with the use of e-20 petrol even in old vehicles instead of allaying the fears of the people. He claimed that the owner manual of many vehicles advises caution about the use of more than 10% ethanol-blended petrol. Also, if the performance or mileage of the vehicle is adversely affected, then normal petrol should be used. Kejriwal claimed that most of the e-20 vehicles manufactured before 2023 were not compliant and that about 22 crore e-vehicles have been developed in the country without proper preparation.

BJP and JDS Delegation Complain to Election Commission Over Karnataka's SIR Process

The political slugfest over the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process in Karnataka has intensified. A BJP and JDS delegation reached the Election Commission of India (ECI) office on Tuesday to complain about glitches and delays in the process. The delegation was led by Union Minister Pralhad Joshi. Pralhad Joshi said that the BJP delegation told the Election Commission that the SIR process in Karnataka is not going according to the guidelines of the Election Commission. He said that the Commission's instructions are that every booth level officer should do door-to-door verification. It is mandatory to visit every house at least 3 times. He alleged that complaints have been received from many areas of Karnataka that the process is being carried out through mosques, madrasas, dargahs, houses of some local Congress leaders, besides mutawallis and maulanas. The BJP says that such an arrangement raises questions on the fairness and transparency of the process. According to them, it has become like a mass house-to-house verification form. The SIR process does not really exist in every household. Its purpose is to verify the status of the voter.

Ayodhya Ram Temple Theft Case Sparks Political Debate Between Congress and Vishwa Hindu Parishad

Ayodhya Ram Temple Theft Case Sparks Political Debate Between Congress and Vishwa Hindu Parishad

Politics continues in the country over the Ayodhya Ram temple theft case. There is a debate between the Congress and the Vishwa Hindu Parishad on this issue. Recently, Congress leader Pawan Khera made serious allegations against the trust and the government. Now VHP international president Alok Kumar has hit back. Congress leader Pawan Khera said that by accepting the resignation of Champat Rai and Anil Mishra, the Ram temple trust has fully accepted that the reports of the theft of funds that have shaken the country for the past one month are true. Pawan Khera had called the appointment of RSS's Krishna Mohan as the interim general secretary of the trust ridiculous. Alok Kumar asked if this responsibility should be handed over to Pawan Khera or Supriya Shrinate. Responding to the Congress leader's sharp attacks, Alok Kumar said, "It is not necessary that there should always be someone from the Sangh (RSS) in the trust. But no one from the Sangh or from the AAP is to blame.

PM Modi Commemorates Biju Patnaik's Courageous Campaign in 1946

Addressing the Indonesian Parliament, Prime Minister Narendra Modi recalled the historic contribution of Biju Patnaik. He said that the role of the former Chief Minister of Odisha has been very important in the strong partnership that India-Indonesia are moving forward with today. In fact, when the Dutch army attacked Java in 1946, Biju Patnaik was the one who brought the leaders of Indonesia to India safely. His courageous step changed the relationship between the two countries forever. Biju Patnaik was a highly skilled pilot before entering politics. The Prime Minister said that when the situation in Indonesia deteriorated in 1946, former Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru entrusted him with the responsibility of rescuing the stranded leaders. After this assurance, Biju Patnaik reached the war-torn area with his wife. From there, he along with the then Prime Minister of Indonesia Sutan Shahrir evacuated Vice President Mohammad Hatta, after which they came to India. Referring to this courageous campaign, PM Modi said that it was Biju Patnaik who gave a new lease of life to both the countries.

Earlier in the day, the United Arab Emirates also strongly condemned the terrorist plots recently thwarted by Moroccan security forces, affirming its “complete solidarity” with the nation. In a post on X, the Ministry of External Affairs of the UAE released an official statement from Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, in which he strongly denounced the plans, which were designed to seriously undermine public order and threaten the safety of individuals and property.

Citing the Central Bureau of Judicial Investigations, Morocco’s chief agency responsible for counterterrorism operations, Al Jazeera reported that raids across several Moroccan cities had found bladed weapons, military-style clothing, bomb-making instructions, digital material, chemicals, and a car suspected to have been modified to be used for bombing or ramming attacks. The Bureau also stated that the suspects were subsequently apprehended. Additionally, a warehouse used by the cell held butane gas cylinders and pressure cookers filled with nails and electrically wired, Al Jazeera reported. It added that the police reflected on the group’s plans, stating that they were in “an advanced stage of preparation”.

Punjab Congress Leaders Meet Amid Infighting as Party Tries to Reach Out to 'Dissident' Camp

Punjab Congress Leaders Meet Amid Infighting as Party Tries to Reach Out to 'Dissident' Camp

Congress's Punjab in-charge, Bhupesh Baghel, on Tuesday met several state leaders, even as those backing Charanjit Singh Channi are yet to meet him amid infighting within the party. State Congress president Amrinder Singh Raja Warring claimed that ex-chief minister and MP Channi will meet Baghel in a day or two. Warring, while replying to a question, said that on Monday, Baghel held meetings with chairpersons of various committees, barring two. He said that chairperson of the party's campaign committee Channi and core committee chairperson Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa will be meeting Baghel in a day or two. "Channi has told Baghel that he will be out for a day or two," said Warring. In the morning, Baghel had a breakfast meeting with state Congress working president Raj Kumar Verka. Separately, Verka also met Channi as attempts by the party leadership appeared to intensify efforts to reach out to the 'dissident' camp led by Channi. Punjab goes to polls early next year. On Monday, several senior leaders held a meeting in Mohali in the presence of Channi, days after several incumbent and former MLAs threw their weight behind the Lok Sabha member to be reconsidered for the state unit chief's post. An announcement to retain Warring as the Punjab Congress chief came last Wednesday, alongside the unveiling of the party's various committees for the 2027 polls.

Macron Escapes Explosion at Hotel in Damascus

Macron Escapes Explosion at Hotel in Damascus

It was a lucky escape for French President Emmanuel Macron. President Macron was staying at a hotel in the Syrian capital Damascus. Just as Macron was leaving for the presidential palace, a loud explosion shook the foundations of the Hotel Four Seasons. It was Macron's good luck, or a miscalculation, or both. If the explosion had happened a little later, the news of this blast could have been very gruesome. People were recovering from the sensation of the first blast. The second blast occurred with even more force. It happened in an ambulance parked next to the hotel. It caught fire immediately. According to the latest information, 18 people were injured in the explosion. Immediately after the explosion, emergency workers were engaged in extinguishing the fire, smoke and flames were seen near the shops in the back. Reuters video showed Macron's motorcade going from the presidential palace to the highway before the explosions. He was seen by Syrian and Syrian military officials while meeting with Syrian government officials.

Kremlin to Monitor NATO Summit Amid Confrontational Statements

Kremlin to Monitor NATO Summit Amid Confrontational Statements

The Kremlin said on Tuesday that it would closely monitor the outcome of this week's NATO summit in Turkey, adding that a series of "confrontational" statements about Russia had preceded the event. NATO leaders are gathering in Ankara for meetings on Tuesday and Wednesday, amid pressure from U.S. President Donald Trump for Europe to step up defense spending and following months of transatlantic friction over the Iran war and Greenland. "This is an event that is of great interest, including to us. Of course, we will be monitoring all the news and information coming out of Ankara," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists. He said a large number of statements about Russia had been made ahead of the summit. "To our regret, these were not statements about constructive engagement and dialogue, but rather statements of a confrontational nature," he said, without giving further detail. On Monday, Trump said he would talk about the war in Ukraine at the summit and that a resolution to the more than four-year conflict was "getting closer than people realize." Peskov said Russia hoped U.S. "efforts to steer the entire situation onto a peaceful track [would] ultimately succeed. At the very least, we, as the Russia n President has repeatedly said, remain open to this."

Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Accuses BJP of Politicizing Lord Ram

Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Accuses BJP of Politicizing Lord Ram

CHANDIGARH: Ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections in Himachal Pradesh, the Ram Mandir donation theft has snowballed into a major political issue in the hill state. Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, Himachal Congress president Vinay Kumar and several state cabinet ministers offered prayers at the Ram temple and Hanuman temple in Shimla on Tuesday. After offering prayers, Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu accused the BJP of politicising Lord Ram and said that any irregularity in donations made in the Ayodhya Temple of Lord Ram is not merely financial wrongdoing but amounts to 'Theft of Faith' of millions of devotees. He added that those responsible for the alleged irregularities in the donations made in the name of Lord Ram should introspect. "Almost everyone, including me, made donations towards the construction of the temple,’’ he said. Sukhu said, "We prayed to Lord Rama to show the right path to the people who collected donations in the name of Lord Rama and in the name of religion. It is an emotional issue for every Hindu, and Congress would stand up against the fraud. The BJP seems to believe in 'Ram naam japna, chanda-chadwa apna,' he said. Sukhu said, "A true devotee of Lord Rama will never use his name for politics.’’ BJP retorted, alleging that people have already certified Congress as 'Anti-Ram'.

Calcutta High Court Allows TMYC Protest Rally Amid Concerns Over Public Inconvenience

Calcutta High Court Allows TMYC Protest Rally Amid Concerns Over Public Inconvenience

While allowing the All India Youth Congress (TMYC) to hold the rally, the Calcutta High Court said that it cannot ignore Article 19 of the Constitution. The court said this when the Trinamool opposed the West Bengal Police's arguments and cited Article 19 and said that it is its democratic right, which gives it freedom of expression. Live Law reported that the Trinamool Youth Congress has challenged the West Bengal Police's decision to deny it permission for the rally. TMYC had sought permission to hold the rally in protest against various recent incidents. The bench of Justice Saugata Bhattacharya also raised concerns about the rally at the outset and said that it may cause inconvenience to the general public. The party had sought permission to hold the rally from Ballygunge Phadi to Hazra Crossing between 2: 30 pm and 4: 30 pm on Wednesday. The court has allowed the rally on the petitioner's plea that although Article 19 of the Constitution gives every citizen the right to peaceful rally, the senior advocate has asked for the road to be kept open for peaceful movement.
