NDA Chief Ministers To Hold Day-Long Meeting Focused On Terrorism, Caste Census
This high-level meeting comes in the wake of the Indian Armed Forces' decisive success in Operation Sindoor, and aims to send a strong and unified message against terrorism. The BJP and its allies in the NDA are gearing up to present India's firm position on terrorism to the public and the international community.
During the meeting, two key resolutions will be introduced — one on Operation Sindoor and another on caste-based census. The deliberations will not only underscore the military achievements of Operation Sindoor but will also reiterate India's readiness to go to any extent in the fight against terrorism — whether at the Line of Control or on the global diplomatic stage.
Operation Sindoor was launched in response to the April 22 terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed 26 lives. On May 7, Indian forces carried out targeted strikes in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), eliminating over 100 terrorists. \
Sources from the BJP have stated that the political and strategic significance of this military operation will be emphasised during the meeting. The central government will brief NDA Chief Ministers in detail, clarifying that the strikes were aimed solely at terrorist infrastructure and not at any country's armed forces.
Apart from national security, the meeting's agenda includes discussions on governance, development, and upcoming electoral strategies. The BJP's ongoing Tiranga Yatra will be aligned with the messaging of the conclave, reinforcing themes of patriotism and unity.
The session will also focus on reviewing various central welfare schemes such as affordable housing, free ration, healthcare, and self-employment initiatives. The objective is to ensure that the benefits of these programs are effectively reaching the marginalized and underprivileged sections of society.

Trump Once Again Claims He Stopped India, Pak War
Washington: US President Donald Trump on Monday once again repeated his claim that he stopped the war between India and Pakistan. Talking to the press in the Oval Office while meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Trump claimed to have ended six wars, including the war between India and Pakistan. While answering a question, Trump said he thought that the Russia-Ukraine war would be the "easiest one" to end, but it is not. Trump said that "it is the tough one", and we have been talking about it for a long time, like "we were talking about others …India-Pakistan." Trump also indirectly mentioned India and Pakistan on his Truth Social post earlier in the day. "I've settled 6 Wars in 6 months, one of them a possible Nuclear disaster," Trump posted. Since May 10, when Trump announced on social media that India and Pakistan had agreed to a "full and immediate" ceasefire after a "long night" of talks mediated by Washington, he has repeated his claim over 40 times that he "helped settle" the tensions between India and Pakistan. India has been consistently maintaining that the understanding on cessation of hostilities with Pakistan was reached following direct talks between the Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of the two militaries. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said in Parliament that no leader of any country asked India to stop Operation Sindoor. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has categorically said there was no third-party intervention in bringing about a ceasefire with Pakistan during Operation Sindoor. On the day of his summit meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday, Trump repeated multiple times within hours his claim that he stopped the war between India and Pakistan, as well as spoke about Delhi's purchases of Russian oil.

New Delhi: PM Narendra Modi inaugurated the Delhi section of Dwarka Expressway and Urban Extension Road-2 in Delhi on Sunday, 17 August. After this, discussions have started on the projects going on in Ghaziabad as to when they will be inaugurated. Recently, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari had talked about the inauguration of the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway by October. In such a situation, it is expected that people can get the gift of the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway on this Diwali. According to the NBT, it was found that about 15% work is still left on the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway. How many parts are ready? The part from Akshardham to Baghpat is completely ready. 10% work is still left in the Baghpat to Saharanpur part. At the same time, about 5 per cent work is left from Saharanpur to Chhutman. The target is to complete both these remaining works by October. The work between Chhutman and Dehradun has been completed. In such a situation, it is being claimed that the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway will be operational by October, according to the NBT reports. How much work is remaining to be completed? At the same time, if NHAI officials are to be believed, more than 90 per cent of the work has been completed, and the remaining work is being completed rapidly. The work will be completed within two months, but sources say that it will be difficult to complete the work within three to four months, according to reports. What was the deadline? It is known that this project was to be completed in March 2024, but the completion of the project is getting delayed. Earlier, some part of it was set to open in January 2025, but later it was postponed. This expressway will mainly connect Delhi, Baghpat, Muzaffarnagar, Shamli, Saharanpur and then Dehradun. Although six lanes have been constructed at most places, for future needs, it can also be expanded from 8 to 12 lanes.

Trump will be unhappy with this 200 number as India makes things easier for China, takes this big step to...
New Delhi: US President Donald Trump has invited trouble without any effort. His move to put pressure on India seems to be backfiring. The whole game has suddenly changed with India and China coming closer in the tariff war. Now India has done something that can hurt Trump a lot. The government is making it easier for China to invest money in India. This is a big sign of improvement in the relations between the two countries. All this is happening at a time when Trump has imposed an additional tariff of 25% on India. This will increase the tariff on Indian goods in America to 50% from August 27. Trump has imposed this tariff due to buying Russian oil. What is the government doing to settle the Chinese FDI? The government is preparing to quickly settle the FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) proposals coming from Chinese companies. For this, the government has given instructions to simplify the approval process. According to sources, the Inter-Ministerial Committee (IMC) headed by the Home Secretary will now work on these proposals expeditiously. A meeting of the IMC was also held last week. A senior official said, 'We have clear instructions. Reduce the time taken to process applications.' According to sources, proposals from non-critical sectors like renewable energy, manufacturing and electronics are still being considered. Dixon Technologies' FDI proposal is also under review. It includes two Chinese partners. 200 FDI proposals are awaiting approval Under Press Note 3, about 200 FDI proposals from China are pending. According to this rule, approval has to be taken from the government before investing in countries sharing a land border with India. The government can dispose of them quickly after getting approval from the IMC and the Cabinet Secretariat. Many Chinese companies have been waiting for their proposals to be approved for a long time. However, officials have also made it clear that this move should not be seen as India's soft stance towards China. A source said, 'India's engagement with Chinese FDI should not be seen through the prism of its relations with the US.'
