Indira 'literally begged' Nixon to intervene in '71 Pak war: BJP
NEW DELHI: BJP Lok Sabha members on Wednesday raised questions over the conduct of former PM Indira Gandhi during the 1971 war with Pakistan, claiming she had "literally begged" then US President Richard Nixon's to intervene. In a letter to Speaker Om Birla, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey accused LoP Rahul Gandhi of using "distorted and inaccurate facts", a day after the Congress neta said if PM Modi had "even 50% courage of Indira", then he must announce that US President Trump is a liar and did not force the Operation Sindoor "ceasefire". Raising the issue in zero hour in LS, BJP member Anurag Thakur said Indian soldiers won the 1971 war but "someone else" was declared the "Iron Lady". He claimed the war was won on the battlefield but lost at the negotiation table. While Thakur flagged Indira's letter to Nixon on Dec 5, 1971, in the House, Dubey attached a copy of it in his letter to Birla. Thakur read out the letter, wherein Indira urged Nixon to persuade Pakistan to desist forthwith from the policy of wanton aggression and military adventurism. "The nation has to decide whether the govt of that day was 'iron or an irony'," he said, amid protests from Congress members. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Up to 70% off | Libas Purple Days Sale Libas Undo Urging Birla to reprimand Rahul for his "habitual delinquency" and highlighting the letter to Nixon, Dubey said, "She had literally begged before him to use his influence to stop the war with Pakistan." Rahul has once again "unabashedly betrayed" public trust by twisting well-documented historical facts, which has become his "habit to glorify his family", Dubey said. Thakur wondered whether Indira did not trust the armed forces and chose to plead with the US to halt the war. "Why did she approach the US?" he asked. Putting up inaccurate facts is a straight case of violation of speaker's directions, Dubey said and alleged Rahul has an "uncanny habit of making false claims".

Mideast crisis: Canada to recognise Palestinian state in September; specifies certain conditions
Canada Prime Minister Mark Carney (Image: AP) Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Wednesday that Canada will recognise a Palestinian state in September, but only if the Palestinian Authority commits to holding democratic elections and implementing key reforms The statement came after Carney spoke with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas earlier in the day. The prime minister's announcement follows similar moves by allied countries in recent days. "Canada intends to recognise the State of Palestine at the 80th Session of the United Nations General Assembly in September 2025," Carney said, reported AFP. He added that the suffering in Gaza had become 'intolerable' and emphasised that the move was necessary to preserve hopes of a two-state solution. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Tuesday that the United Kingdom will recognize a Palestinian state in September unless Israel agrees to a ceasefire in Gaza, allows United Nations aid into the region, and takes further steps toward long-term peace. France made a similar declaration last week but without conditions. French President Emmanuel Macron said on Friday there was 'no alternative' to recognizing a Palestinian state and confirmed France intends to do so at the United Nations General Assembly in September. The issue has sparked growing political support within Canada. In the past week, several Liberal MPs have called on the government to follow France's lead. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Geberit Sigma40 Elevates Bathroom Design with Detail squarerooms Read More Undo Toronto MP Salma Zahid and Montreal-area MP Sameer Zuberi both posted on social media, urging Canada to join France in announcing recognition of a Palestinian state. Fares Al Soud, who represents Mississauga Centre, added that 'justice for the Palestinian people demands recognition,' as quoted by CBS News. Last fall, dozens of MPs from the Liberal Party, NDP, Bloc Quebecois, and Green Party supported an international call for the recognition of Palestinian statehood. Canada has long supported the idea of a future Palestinian state that would coexist peacefully alongside Israel.
