Pakistani university lecturer arrested for planning foiled Balochistan attack, officials say
Security forces in southwestern Pakistan arrested a university lecturer accused of planning a foiled suicide attack that would have targeted last week's Independence Day celebrations in insurgency-hit Balochistan province, officials said Monday (August 18, 2025). The suspect, Usman Qazi, is claimed to have links with the outlawed Majeed Brigade, the suicide squad of the Balochistan Liberation Army, according to the province's Chief Minister, Sarfraz Bugti. During a press conference in the city of Quetta, Mr. Bugti showed video footage with Qazi admitting to planning the thwarted attack as well as aiding militants in recent years. It was unclear whether Qazi made those remarks under duress. Mr. Bugti did not clarify when the arrest was made, and only said the man was still being questioned. The arrest comes a week after the US State Department designated BLA and the Majeed Brigade a foreign terrorist organisation. The group is already banned at home. Mr. Bugti said it was the first time security forces acting on intelligence had captured a senior member of the Majeed Brigade. He said Qazi confessed to involvement in past attacks, including last year's railway station bombing in Quetta that killed 32 people. There was no immediate comment from the BLA about the arrest. Balochistan has long seen violence blamed on separatist groups, including the BLA. The province is rich in natural resources and home to projects tied to the multibillion-dollar China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, where Chinese nationals and Pakistani security forces have also been targeted by insurgents. The separatists demand independence from Pakistan's central government in Islamabad. Though the government said it had quelled the insurgency, violence persists there.

Modi meets key ministers, economists to discuss 100-day reform agenda
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday huddled with senior ministers, top bureaucrats and economists to draw up a 100-day roadmap for 'next-generation reforms' aimed at sustaining India's growth momentum and insulating the economy from fresh US tariffs on exports, three persons familiar with the development said on condition of not being named. The meeting was attended by home minister Amit Shah, finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman, commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal, Railways minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, secretaries of key departments, and select economists. 'Chaired a meeting to discuss the roadmap for next-generation reforms. We are committed to speedy reforms across all sectors, which will boost ease of living, ease of doing business and prosperity,' the Prime Minister said in a social media post. Individual ministries have been urged to come up with tailored measures towards the 100-day agenda to accelerate India's economic growth, one of the persons quoted above said. Another issue that was deliberated was the impact of tariffs that the US has imposed on Indian exports, said the second person. Notably, the 25% reciprocal tariffs on Indian exports that US President Donald Trump imposed came into effect on 7 August. This may double to 50% on 27 August after additional tariffs imposed for New Delhi's oil trade with Russia kick in. Given that such high tariffs could impact Indian exporters' competitiveness in their largest export market, policy makers are keen to step up domestic consumption demand and, thus, capacity utilisation in factories, which will ensure jobs are protected. Modi had highlighted the need for faster economic growth in his Independence Day speech on Friday. 'We want to grow fast,' Modi said in his speech while announcing that a task force will give recommendations in this regard. Current law, practices, procedures, etc, should be aligned to the 21st century and the global environment, and should aid India in becoming a developed country by 2047, Modi had said in his address. The theme of stimulating the economy through reforms was already in motion early this financial year as Sitharaman presented a reform-focused budget in February with big cuts in income tax, welfare targets for inclusive growth, and across-the-board reforms especially in regulatory framework, taxation and the financial sector. Policy makers believe cutting red tape and making it easier to do business can unleash the entrepreneurial spirit of people, which can help to achieve much more than what the government and state-run firms can do directly, the people cited above said. While agriculture and services are performing well, the government wants to increase the share of manufacturing in the economy, which can fetch more and better paid jobs to people. The Centre has also launched several schemes to address the skill gap among the youth that affect their employability. India's GDP is projected by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to grow at 6.5% this financial year. Above normal monsoons, the income tax relief announced in the budget, and a 100-basis points reduction in RBI's repo rate are also expected to support growth this year. On 14 August, Mint reported that the government has asked 37 ministries to submit a detailed report on the key compliance requirements that are creating roadblocks for manufacturers, exporters, investors and small enterprises, and hurting their ability to conduct their businesses smoothly.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy gets dressing down before White House meeting, virtually told to surrender
The TOI correspondent from Washington: MAGA supremo Donald Trump has bluntly told Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy ahead of their White House meeting on Monday afternoon to give up territory his country has lost to Russia and forget about joining Nato. In what is virtually a "surrender or die" message to Zelenskyy, Trump said the Ukrainian leader "can end the war with Russia almost immediately, if he wants to, or he can continue to fight." "Remember how it started. No getting back Obama given Crimea (12 years ago, without a shot being fired!), and NO GOING INTO NATO BY UKRAINE. Some things never change!!!" he said on his "Truth Social" network, implicitly endorsing Russia's position and blaming his predecessors for the crisis. The dressing down -- amid reports Zelenskyy has been asked to "suit up" for the White House meeting -- came just hours before crucial talks on Monday afternoon with the fate of his country at stake, with his supporting cast of European leaders waiting in the wings to join the confabulations. But the gaggle of leaders who see Russia as a perpetual threat seem to have reconciled to Trump's Moscow-mandated terms, with talks now expected to center on unspecified "robust security guarantees" US interlocutors have promised for Ukraine (or what remains of it) if it ends the war. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Instant Renewal, Instant Savings – Only with Acko Acko Car Insurance Sign Up Undo They want the guarantees to be legislatively binding and conforming to Article 5 of Nato treaty that obligates all alliance members to defend any member who is attacked, which would make Ukraine a de facto Nato member. Trump seemed to revel in the global focus on the White House ahead of the meeting, gloating, 'We have never had so many European Leaders here at one time. A great honor for America!!! Lets see what the results will be???' He also posted long tortured screeds blaming "the Fake News Media and their Democrat Partners" for not allowing him to settle the war and questioning his judgment, according to which Russia is also having to make sacrifices. "I've settled 6 Wars in 6 months, one of them a possible Nuclear disaster... I know exactly what I'm doing, and I don't need the advice of people who have been working on all of these conflicts for years, and were never able to do a thing to stop them. They are 'STUPID' people, with no common sense, intelligence, or understanding, and they only make the current R/U disaster more difficult to FIX. Despite all of my lightweight and very jealous critics, I'll get it done — I always do!!!" he raged. While New Delhi -- and much of the world will keep an anxious eye on the outcome of the White House meeting, it is increasingly apparent that purchase of Russian oil is not the only issue bedeviling US-India ties. Openly voicing Washington's duplicity on the Russian oil issue, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a TV interview on Sunday that "sanctioning China (for purchase of Russian oil) would push global oil prices higher," the same logic applied to India's purchase of Russian oil. Other administration officials have suggested the reason for the differential treatment is that Beijing has leverage, implicitly suggesting New Delhi does not. Trump himself has expressed irritation about the BRICS agenda which he thinks involves ditchign the US dollar and reserve currency and US companies shifting manufacturing jobs to India. So even in the event of a best case scenario of a Russia-Ukraine truce or peace deal emerging from the White House talks on Monday, India may escape the 25 per cent penalty, but the 25 per cent tariff will remain in place.
