2
Chatra: BJP's Hazaribag district unit organized an Aakrosh March on Wednesday to protest the
targeted killings of Hindus
by terrorists in Pahalgam, Kashmir. District president Vivekanand Singh led the demonstration, accompanied by Sadar MLA Pradeep Prasad.
Party leaders and workers conducted a torchlight procession from Budhwa Mahadev to Jhanda Chowk in Hazaribag city. At the gathering, speakers identified Pakistan-based Saifullah Khalid as the mastermind behind the attacks, condemning the selective targeting of Hindus based on their religious identity.
The protesters demanded swift action from the central govt to eliminate the terrorists responsible for the Pahalgam attack. They also called for strong measures against the Pakistani army for allegedly sheltering the perpetrators.
Speaking at the event, MLA Pradip Prasad emphasized that the attack was not just against individuals but targeted India's communal harmony and democratic values. "The entire country must unite against terrorism," he stated, adding that those responsible for shedding innocent blood must face consequences.
The demonstration highlighted growing concerns over targeted religious violence and called for national unity in combating terrorism.

Zelenskyy By His Side, Trump Again Claims He Stopped India-Pakistan War
Trump has once again claimed that he stopped India-Pakistan war in May, despite New Delhi's outright rejection of his claims. US President Donald Trump raked up the India-Pakistan conflict again on Monday and claimed that he 'ended six wars" during the as many of months of his presidency. Trump, an aspirant for the Nobel Peace Prize, has claimed on over 25 occasions that he mediated a 'ceasefire" between India and Pakistan during Operation Sindoor using trade as a tool. His repeated remarks were outrightly rejected by New Delhi, even by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who set the record straight on the floor of the Parliament, where he made it abundantly clear that 'no world leader asked India to stop Operation Sindoor". Despite being called out for his unsubstantiated claims, Trump has continued to go on with his statements on India-Pakistan war – the latest in front of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who was at the White House along with several European leaders to find a solution for a war in his country, miles away from Islamabad. Trump acknowledged that he had thought Russia-Ukraine war was the 'easiest one" but it turned out to be a 'tough one". 'The war (Russia-Ukraine) is going to end. When it ends, I can't tell you but the war is going to end and this gentleman wants it to end and Vladimir Putin wants it to end. I think the whole world is tired of it. We are going to get it ended. I have ended 6 wars and I thought that maybe this would be the easiest one. And it's not the easiest one. It's a tough one…India-Pakistan, we are talking about big places," Trump told reporters, with Zelenskyy by his side. 'You take a look at some of these wars, you go to Africa and take a look at that. Rawanda and the Congo – that has been going on for 31 years. We have done a total of 6, not including the fact that we totally obliterated the future nuclear capability of Iran…I feel confident that we are going to get this war off," he added. India has made it clear that it was the Pakistani DGMO who reached out to his Indian counterpart on May 10, seeking a ceasefire. After this, both countries reached an 'understanding" to halt the military operations. view comments First Published: August 18, 2025, 23:56 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Is pitch clear for another Scindia to don MPCA prez cap?
Bhopal/Indore: As Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association (MPCA) heads towards an election, scheduled for Sept 2, is Mahanaryaman Scindia headed for a walkover? Sources in the MPCA say that with Mahanaryaman's father, Union minister , now in BJP, the traditional rivalry between the Scindia faction and that led by state minister and veteran BJP leader Kailash Vijayvargia is over, paving the way for Scindia junior getting to the post of association president unopposed. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The third and powerful faction, led by former BCCI secretary and MPCA president Sanjay Jagdale, is likely to secure majority of important seats. While incumbent president Abhilash Khandekar is set to complete his second term, sources indicate preparations are underway to nominate Mahanaryaman for the president's post. Currently, Mahanaryaman holds the position of vice-president of the Gwalior cricket division. Mahanaryaman's administrative skills came to the fore with the launch of the Madhya Pradesh Premiere League Scindia Cup two years ago in Gwalior and the event has been successful since its inception. One of the editions, initially scheduled to be organised earlier this year in Indore, was later shifted to Gwalior. "The league has shown that Mahanaryaman has the knack to take up bigger responsibilities," said a senior cricketer. Sources told TOI members from the Sanjay Jagdale and Kailash Vijayvargiya factions may be assigned significant responsibilities within the association. Ahead of the elections, officials from eight divisions of the association reached Indore on Monday for the MPCA award function. "Since everyone was in Indore, it was an opportunity to meet ahead of the election. The scenario would get clearer in the next couple of days. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now As of now, it is clear that one name has been decided unopposed for the post of president," said a senior member of MPCA on the condition of anonymity. Jyotiraditya and his father Madhavrao Scindia have been MPCA presidents in the past. While the election for the post of president is expected to be unopposed, there is a possibility of significant competition for the post of secretary. Sources said a candidate from Jagdale's group might be chosen for this position.
