Went for the country and spoke for the country: Tharoor on Op Sindoor outreach
New Delhi: Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, who led a nine-member Indian delegation including MPs from different political parties as part of Operation Sindoor outreach to five countries, including the US and Brazil, on Tuesday said that the tour was hugely successful. "I went for the country and spoke for the country," said Tharoor while interacting with the Malayalam media here on Tuesday in response to a question about his party's outlook on the venture. Apart from Tharoor, the team included Sarfaraz Ahmad, Ganti Harish Madhur, Shashank Mani Tripathi, Bhubaneswar Kalita, Tejasvi Surya, and former Ambassador Taranjit Singh Sandhu, and it also visited Panama, Guyana, and Colombia. "The whole purpose of the visit was to interact with think tanks, Presidents, Vice Presidents, parliamentarians and also former top political leaders and to brief them on what had happened,' said Tharoor. About his American visit, he said nothing about trade issues or about who 'intervened' to stop the aggression was raised during their interactions, in a reference to President Donald Trump's statements. "After explaining the Indian position, all have understood things, as Pakistan had presented a weak case, as terrorists had attacked tourists," he added. Asked about what he intends to do following the visit, he said: "I am going to submit a detailed report to the Prime Minister, and it will be my report." "The trip was very hectic as we were travelling at night and hardly got time to sleep," Tharoor added. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had selected Tharoor to be part of the delegation and lead it, after it was found out that the Congress party's list did not have the name of Tharoor. Ever since Tharoor decided to contest against the official party high command's nominee, Malikarjuna Kharge, for the post of Congress president, a majority in the Congress leadership was unhappy with him, but knowing his popularity, he managed to get support from a section of the party in Kerala. Tharoor is a four-time Congress MP from the Thiruvananthapuram Lok Sabha constituency since 2009.

Robert Vadra skips ED summons in PMLA case linked to Sanjay Bhandari
Robert Vadra , the businessman husband of Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra , on Tuesday skipped an ED summons for questioning in a money laundering case linked to UK-based alleged arms consultant Sanjay Bhandari , official sources said. The sources said Vadra sought an adjournment of Tuesday's summons, and he will now be given a fresh date. The ED wants to record Vadra's statement under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and then file a chargesheet against him before the court, sources said. The federal probe agency had questioned the 56-year-old businessman for three consecutive days in April in a separate money laundering case linked to alleged irregularities in a 2008 land deal in Haryana. Bhandari (63) fled to London in 2016, soon after the Income Tax Department raided him in Delhi. Live Events A UK court earlier this month refused an application filed by the Indian government seeking permission to appeal in Britain's Supreme Court against the discharge of Bhandari in an extradition case , virtually ruling out chances of him being brought to the country to face the law. The ED filed a chargesheet in this case in 2023, alleging that Bhandari acquired the 12, Bryanston Square house in London in 2009 and got it renovated "as per the directions of Robert Vadra, who provided the funds for the renovation". Vadra has denied that he owns any London property directly or indirectly. Terming the charges a "political witch hunt", Vadra said he was being "hounded and harassed" to subserve political ends. The ED is also investigating Vadra in a separate money laundering case linked to alleged financial irregularities in a land deal in Rajasthan's Bikaner. The federal probe agency had previously questioned Vadra and his mother, Maureen, in this case.

"Like Cat Guarding Milk": India Criticises UN Over Pak's Anti-Terror Panel Role
New Delhi: Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said today that in recent years, many decisions of the United Nations have been questioned. Speaking at a public event Dehradun on dismantling Pakistan's terror infrastructure, he cited the time when Pakistan was made the Vice-Chair of the Counter-Terrorism Panel by the United Nations Security Council just after the 9/11 attack. "It is not hidden from anyone that Pakistan had sheltered the mastermind of that attack. This is kind of like making a cat guard the milk," he said. But since Prime Minister Narendra Modi came to power, the government has "changed the attitude and method of action" on issues related to national security. The latest and best example of this is Operation Sindoor, he said, calling it the "biggest action against terrorism in Indian history". Calling Pakistan the "Father of Terrorism" he said it has always given shelter to terrorists, given them training and many kinds of help on its soil. To eliminate the terror infrastructure, "it is also important to expose the countries that fund and shelter terrorism in the world today," he said. A large part of the financial aid Pakistan receives is spent on terrorism and the world is now waking up to this, he said. But it is necessary that the United Nations, which has "a big responsibility in the fight against terrorism" remain on the same page. "Unfortunately, in recent years, many decisions of the UN have been questioned," he added.
