BEML secures $6.23 million export orders from Russia, Uzbekistan
The company has secured two distinct orders, including one from a CIS nation for the supply of 10 units of its heavy-duty bulldozers, specially engineered to perform in extreme cold climates with temperatures plunging as low as -50C.
The second, maiden-order from Uzbekistan, includes the supply of one unit of the high-performance motor grader, essential for infrastructure development and road maintenance within mining operations.
With Uzbekistan becoming the 73rd nation to be added to BEML's global exports portfolio, this development reinforces the company's expanding international reach and its credibility as a preferred partner for advanced, mission-critical equipment.
The latest order strengthens BEML's presence in the resource-rich Russian and CIS mining markets, known for their complex terrain and high demand for durable and dependable heavy machinery.
The combined value of the order is $ 6.23 million.
"This is a significant win for BEML and a reflection of our growing global competitiveness. Our entry into the Uzbekistan market and continued success in the CIS region reaffirm our strategic vision to become a leading player in the international mining and defence markets," BEML CMD Shantanu Roy said.
BEML, under the Ministry of Defence, operates in three verticals -- construction and mining, rail and metro, and defence and aerospace.

Putin Gives Dollar Shock To Trump; Big Announcement On Ditching U.S. Currency In BRICS Speech
The use of national currencies in trade between BRICS nations is accelerating, according to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Speaking on the growing shift away from the U.S. dollar, Putin revealed that in 2024, 90% of Russia's transactions with partner states were conducted in rubles or other "friendly" currencies. This marks a significant milestone in the bloc's push for greater financial sovereignty and de-dollarization. The BRICS alliance—comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and recent new members—has long sought alternatives to Western-dominated financial systems. Watch.

Russia becomes first to recognise Taliban govt of Afghanistan
Russia said that it had accepted the credentials of a new ambassador of Afghanistan, making it the first nation to recognise the Taliban government of the country. In a statement, the Russian Foreign Ministry said Moscow saw good prospects to develop ties and would continue to support Kabul in security, counter-terrorism and combating drug crime. It also saw significant trade and economic opportunities, especially in energy, transport, agriculture and infrastructure. "We believe that the act of official recognition of the government of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan will give impetus to the development of productive bilateral cooperation between our countries in various fields," the ministry said. Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi said in a statement: "We value this courageous step taken by Russia, and, God willing, it will serve as an example for others as well." No other country has formally recognised the Taliban government that seized power in August 2021 as U.S.-led forces staged a chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan after 20 years of war. However, China, the United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan and Pakistan have all designated ambassadors to Kabul, in a step towards recognition. The Russian move represents a major milestone for the Taliban administration as it seeks to ease its international isolation.

You can't run 21st-century software on 20th-century typewriters, says PM Modi at Brics summit
The Global South has often been a victim of 'double standards' and nations that make major contributions to the world economy are deprived of a seat at the decision making table, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said at the BRICS Summit on Sunday. read more India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi speaks during the first plenary session of the BRICS summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on July 6, 2025. Image- AFP Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday called for urgent reforms in global institutions, including the UN Security Council, the World Trade Organisation and leading financial bodies, stating that they must reflect the current realities of the world. 'In the age of AI, where technology evolves every week, it's unacceptable for global institutions to go 80 years without reform. You can't run 21st-century software on 20th-century typewriters!' Modi said in his address at a session on reform of global governance at the BRICS summit. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD He also said that without the Global South, these institutions are like 'a mobile phone with a SIM card but no network.' The Global South has often been a victim of 'double standards' and nations that make major contributions to the world economy are deprived of a seat at the decision-making table, PM Modi said at the BRICS Summit on Sunday while calling for urgent reform of the key global bodies. The top leaders of BRICS held deliberations on a range of pressing challenges facing the globe on the first day of the grouping's two-day annual summit in this seaside Brazilian city. Chinese President Xi Jinping and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin skipped the summit. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Egypt's Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi also didn't attend the gathering. The BRICS has emerged as an influential grouping as it brings together 11 major emerging economies of the world, representing around 49.5 per cent of the global population, around 40 per cent of the global GDP and around 26 per cent of the global trade. In his remarks, Modi spoke extensively on the Global South and said it has often faced 'double standards' — be it development, distribution of resources or security related matters. 'The Global South often received nothing more than token gestures on topics like climate finance, sustainable development, and technology access,' Modi said. The prime minister said two-thirds of humanity still lack proper representation in global institutions built in the 20th century. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'Many countries that play a key role in today's global economy are yet to be given a seat at the decision-making table. This is not just about representation, it's also about credibility and effectiveness.' The prime minister said the global institutions are unable to function properly or meet the challenges of the 21st century. 'Whether it's ongoing conflicts across the world, the pandemic, economic crises, or emerging challenges in cyber or space, these institutions have failed to offer solutions,' he said. The annual BRICS Summit began with a family photo of the leaders followed by an address by Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Modi said the world today needs a new multipolar and inclusive order and this has to begin with comprehensive reforms in global institutions. 'These reforms should not be merely symbolic, but their real impact should also be visible. There must be changes in governance structures, voting rights, and leadership positions,' he said. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The prime minister asserted that the challenges faced by countries in the Global South must be given priority in policymaking. Modi said the expansion of BRICS is proof of the fact that it is an organisation that has the capacity to change itself according to the times. 'Now, we must demonstrate the same determination to reform institutions like the UN Security Council, the WTO, and multilateral development banks,' he said. The prime minister also noted that India has always considered it a duty to rise above self interest and work towards the interest of humanity. 'We're fully committed to work along with the BRICS countries on all matters, and provide our constructive contributions,' he said. In his address, Lula said the world is witnessing the unparalleled collapse of multilateralism and that the meeting is taking place in the most adverse global scenario. 'We are fully committed to make constructive contributions on all subjects, along with the BRICS countries,' Modi added. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD With inputs from agencies
