Chairing a high-level review meeting, she emphasized that flag hoisting must take place on time and national anthem protocol should be strictly followed. The main events will be held at Ranchi's Morabadi Ground, where the Chief Minister will hoist the tricolour, and at Dumka Police Lines, where the Governor will lead the ceremony.

She also called for ensuring clear visuals on LED screens, adequate seating arrangements, drinking water, medical aid, temporary toilets, and uninterrupted power supply.
Live telecast of the event and creation of a dedicated media enclosure have also been mandated. The Information and Public Relations Department will manage the public address system. Separate instructions were issued for traffic regulation, fire safety, parking, and coordinated parade rehearsals.
The parade will include contingents from CRPF, JAP, IRB, district police, NCC, home guards, and fire brigade. Similar arrangements are to be replicated at the district level across Jharkhand.

Putin reiterates Moscow's stance on settlement with Ukraine, says demands remain unchanged
Moscow, Aug 1 (UNI) Reiterating Moscow's core demands for reaching a peace settlement with Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed that the Kremlin's demands remain unchanged. Speaking after a meeting with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, Putin emphasised the continued relevance and necessity of negotiations, but also underscored that resolving the conflict ultimately depends on addressing its root causes, reports RIA Novosti. 'The talks are important and always in demand,' he said, noting that Russia's conditions regarding settlement are still what they were, when first laid out in the summer of 2024. These include Ukraine not being part of any military alliance, commit to maintaining its non-nuclear status, and the state recognition of its four captured regions - Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson, and Zaporozhye — as part of Russia, and lastly, the lifting of all sanctions imposed on Moscow. Putin stressed that any agreement should pave the way for long-term peace without time constraints, and said Russia is open to waiting if Kyiv is unwilling to engage on these terms. He added that broader European security must be taken into account when discussing a Ukrainian settlement. Confirming Moscow's recent battlefield advances, he said that Russian troops had indeed taken control of the town of Chasov Yar and continue to push forward along the front. He further claimed that thousands of Ukrainian soldiers' remains had been handed back, while Russia received dozens of its own fallen troops. Lukashenko echoing Putin's stance, faulted the failure of negotiations on Kyiv, attributing them to Ukraine's 'impossible demands.' He went on to state that if the US genuinely seeks peace, the White House must play a more constructive role in the process, and voiced total readiness by Minsk to join future talks if need be and voiced full support for Russia's negotiating position. The third round of peace talks in Istanbul, held behind closed doors on July 23 at the historic Ciragan Palace, lasted about an hour. They followed a private meeting between Russian presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky and Ukraine's National Security Council Secretary Rustem Umerov, both of whom have led previous rounds of dialogue. According to Medinsky, discussions included humanitarian concerns, such as the return of civilians displaced by military activity in Russia's Kursk Region. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov later told reporters that while high-level engagement is expected to finalise any eventual settlement, the current positions of Moscow and Kyiv remain 'diametrically opposed,' and compromise is unlikely in the immediate future.

India rejects UK Parliamentary panel report on TNR
New Delhi, Aug 1 (UNI) India today dismissed a UK Parliamentary Committee report that included India as among the countries involved in transnational repression (TNR), and said the claims stem from unverified and dubious sources, namely the proscribed Sikhs for Justice group. In a statement, the Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said: 'We have seen the references to India in the report and categorically reject these baseless allegations. 'These claims stem from unverified and dubious sources, predominantly linked to proscribed entities and individuals with a clear, documented history of anti-India hostility. 'The deliberate reliance on discredited sources calls into question the credibility of the report itself,' the spokesperson said. The UK Joint Committee on Human Rights in its report has included India along with Bahrain, China, Egypt, Eritrea, India, Iran, Pakistan, Russia, Rwanda, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates which are all accused of perpetrating Transnational Repression or TNR in the UK. The UK Government has described TNR as 'certain foreign state-directed crimes against individuals'. It says the 'most available data on TNR originates from non-governmental organisations', and has cited the Sikhs for Justice in several places.
