Group broke through barricades & scuffled with officers, says FIR
1 2 Lucknow: The FIR in the case lodged at 6.21 pm at Kotwali police station of Fatehpur, says that a group of approximately 160 individuals, led by one Abhishek Shukla and several others, attempted to vandalize the 200-year-old mausoleum. "The incident took place at the Mangi Maqbara in Abunagar, where the group, armed with flags, sticks and rods, sought to damage the site, claiming it to be a temple. The protest was organised by the Math Mandir Sanrakshan Sangharsh Samiti, which had called for a march to the site, demanding it be recognised as a Thakur Dwara temple. In response, local authorities had deployed a significant police presence, including officers from various police stations across the district, to maintain law and order," it says. "Despite repeated attempts by the police to dissuade the protesters, the group broke through the barricades and engaged in a scuffle with the officers. They managed to partially damage a tomb within the maqbara, leading to heightened tensions among the local Muslim community, who were left agitated and distressed by the actions," says FIR.

Spain Orders Town To Scrap Motion Restricting Muslim Festivities
Spain's leftist government on Monday ordered a town to drop a ban on religious celebrations in municipal sports facilities, a measure critics say was aimed at blocking longstanding Muslim festivities. The town council of Jumilla, in the southeastern region of Murcia, approved the ban last week with support from the conservative Popular Party (PP), saying it sought to "promote and preserve the traditional values" of the area. Far-right party Vox had demanded the measure in exchange for backing the PP mayor's municipal budget. Spain's national government swiftly denounced the ban, with minister for inclusion and migration Elma Sainz calling it a "racist motion". Territorial Policy Minister Angel Victor Torres announced on X on Monday that the central government had formally ordered the Jumilla council to scrap the ban, arguing it violates the constitution. Jumilla, a wine-producing town of about 27,000 people, has a significant Muslim community, many of whom work in the agricultural sector. For years, the community has used sports venues for celebrations such as Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the holy fasting month of Ramadan. The controversy comes just weeks after far-right groups and immigrant residents clashed for several nights in another Murcia town following an assault on a retired man by a young North African. Even Spain's Catholic Church criticised the ban in Jumilla, saying public religious expressions are protected under the right to religious freedom. Vox leader Santiago Abascal said he was "perplexed" by the Church's stance, suggesting it might be tied to public funding or to clergy abuse scandals that he claimed have "gagged" the institution.

India won't be shaken by tariff threats, says Naidu
Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu on Monday said India would not be shaken by tariff threats or trade barriers imposed by other nations, in an apparent reference to past remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump describing it as a 'dead economy.' Addressing the Har Ghar Tiranga programme here, Mr. Naidu said the country had made rapid strides since Independence, emerging as the world's fourth largest economy and set to climb to third place, driven by reforms since the 1990s. He praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership in 'steering the country through troubled times,' noting India's talented human resources as a key asset. The tricolour, he said, was not just a symbol but a source of inspiration, evoking the sacrifices of freedom fighters and the Armed Forces. Recalling India's 'befitting reply' to the Pahalgam terror attacks, he urged people to uphold patriotism and unity. Mr. Naidu paid tributes to Pingali Venkaiah, Alluri Sitarama Raju and others who fought for freedom. Ministers Kandula Durgesh and Y. Satya Kumar, MLA Bonda Umamaheswara Rao, and senior officials were present.
