Trump said surrender, PM Modi obeyed: Rahul Gandhi on Operation Sindoor

Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi launched a sharp attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday, claiming the Prime Minister halted Operation Sindoor after a phone call from then US President Donald Trump. Speaking at a Congress event in Bhopal, Gandhi criticised the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), accusing them of lacking the courage to stand firm under international pressure. 'I now know the BJP and RSS people very well. Just put a little pressure on them, give them a slight push, they run away in fear,' he said. Modi bowed to Trump's command, claims Gandhi 'Trump gave just a signal, picked up the phone and said, 'Modi ji, what are you doing? Narendra, surrender.' Saying 'Yes, sir', Narendra Modi obeyed Trump's signal,' Gandhi alleged. He contrasted this with the leadership shown during the 1971 Indo–Pak war, when the United States sent its Seventh Fleet to the Bay of Bengal. 'There was no phone call then,' he said. 'An aircraft carrier arrived, weapons came, but Indira Gandhi stood firm. She said, 'I will do what I must.' That is leadership. That is character.' ट्रंप का एक फोन आया और नरेंद्र जी तुरंत surrender हो गए - इतिहास गवाह है, यही BJP-RSS का character है, ये हमेशा झुकते हैं। भारत ने 1971 में अमेरिका की धमकी के बावजूद पाकिस्तान को तोड़ा था। कांग्रेस के बब्बर शेर और शेरनियां Superpowers से लड़ते हैं, कभी झुकते नहीं। — Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) June 3, 2025 Congress leader compares Modi with leaders of Independence era Gandhi further criticised the BJP's historical stance, saying, 'Since Independence, they've always had a habit of surrendering. Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru and Sardar Patel were people who stood up to global powers. They didn't bow down.' India launched Operation Sindoor in the early hours of 7 May, targeting nine terrorist sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir. The strike followed the Pahalgam terror attack on 22 April, which claimed 26 lives. India rebuts Trump's claim of stopping conflict Former US President Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed that he prevented India and Pakistan from escalating conflict, stating that his administration told both nations it would not trade with those 'shooting at each other'. However, India's External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar denied those assertions, stating that the cessation of hostilities came through direct negotiations between India and Pakistan.

Vijayendra likens Karnataka govt to Tughlaq rule

Bengaluru, June 3 (UNI) Karnataka BJP president Vijayendra Yediyurappa on Tuesday launched a fierce attack on the Congress-led state government, accusing it of running a "Tughlaq-style administration" that is dismantling democracy and suppressing dissent, particularly in Dakshina Kannada and other coastal districts. Speaking to reporters here, Vijayendra said, "The government's actions are completely destroying law and order in the coastal belt. If, instead of taking corrective steps, it continues to use the police like goons, the BJP will not sit with its hands tied." He stated that he had already discussed the issue with national BJP leaders on Monday night, and that a delegation comprising party MPs and MLAs would meet senior police officials to raise concerns about police excesses. Reacting strongly to the recent externment orders against Sangh Parivar leaders in Dakshina Kannada, Vijayendra likened the current Congress regime to medieval feudal rule. 'Once upon a time, kings and landlords ruled arbitrarily. Today, the Siddaramaiah-led government is running a Tughlaq-style administration that is suppressing democracy and harassing nationalists,' he said. The BJP leader further alleged that the government was diverting attention from its developmental failures by targeting Hindu activists. 'People across the state are angry about the lack of progress. Instead of addressing these issues, this government is resorting to shameful acts and conspiracies to defame and insult Hindu leaders,' he said. UNI BDN PRS

Cong demands inquiry against Tripura University VC and Registrar on recruitment scam

Agartala, June 3 (UNI) Former BJP Minister and incumbent Congress legislator Sudip Roybarman on Tuesday wrote to Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan seeking suspension and a high-level inquiry against officiating Vice Chancellor of Tripura University Prof G P Prasain and Registrar Dr Deepak Sharma for an alleged scam in recruitment and high-value purchase. He also requested Governor of Tripura Indra Sena Reddy Nallu and Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha to take up the issue with the central government, as VC and Registrar have been working against the interest of the state. As per law, the executive power of the VC had already been withdrawn three months ago, and the new VC recruitment is in process, but he called interviews for various faculty positions in the Department of Law, Sociology, and Sanskrit department on June 8-9, violating rules, the letter alleged. 'They have flooded Tripura University with underqualified and ineligible outsiders, depriving genuine candidates of Tripura. Most shamefully, VC has recruited his son as an engineer at the university, depriving all bright and brilliant locals. Only 4-5 local students were selected despite fulfilling all norms of eligibility, while more than 30 were given jobs from outside states,' Roybarman mentioned in the letter. It further alleged that VC and Registrar are distributing teaching jobs to outsiders, and pleaded that all the outsiders are recommended for a job in Tripura by RSS and BJP's top bosses. He questions, 'Even if we bluntly disbelieve their claims, where is the action from the Ministry of Education, PMO, Governor of Tripura, and the Chief Minister?' While restraining VC from his illegal act of recruitment, suspend him, along with the Registrar, and also constitute a High Level Inquiry Committee with independent authority to ascertain the irregularities and anomalies in the recruitment process in the last year, Roybarman demanded.
