Sushasan Ka Encounter: DNA Analysis Of Bihars Deteriorating Law And Order Situation
In a brazen act that exposed the collapse of law and order, five armed shooters stormed into the ICU and gunned down a man in cold blood. The victim, Chandan Mishra, was a known history-sheeter. The attackers not only fired multiple shots inside a high-security hospital but also walked out casually, unfazed, as if they had no fear of the police or consequences.

The murder, which took place in broad daylight, has raised serious questions about the state of policing in Bihar, a state already battling headlines over rising crime.
Ironically, just hours before this crime, Bihar ADG Kundan Krishnan made a controversial statement blaming the spike in criminal activities on 'free farmers' during off-season months. He suggested that between April and June, when agricultural work is minimal, crime in Bihar increases, an explanation now facing ridicule from opposition leaders and citizens alike.
Reacting sharply, Tejashwi Yadav mocked the logic behind the police officer's theory, while Bihar's Deputy CM Vijay Sinha gave the usual assurance, 'criminals will be caught.' But the core question remains: If criminals can openly commit murder inside a VIP hospital in the heart of the capital, and walk away freely, who is really in control?
The Zee News team visited several locations across Patna to observe the alertness of the police, only to find constables lounging in towels and vests, far from battle-ready. If this is the level of alertness in Patna, one wonders what the situation is in smaller towns and villages.
The family of Chandan Mishra has already named one of the shooters, Tausif Badshah, and claims to recognize the others as well. Yet, as of now, there have been no arrests, and fear among common citizens is growing.
So today, the bigger question DNA raises is this: Are fearless criminals now writing the rulebook in Bihar? Is the Bihar Police being challenged right under its nose, and if yes, why is there such little urgency in the system?

DNA Analysis
From consumer goods to the pharmaceutical sector, every assessment indicates that Trump's excessive tariffs on India will ultimately harm the United States. However, Trump remains firm on increasing tariffs. The reason is clear: for Trump, these tariffs are not just an economic issue but a weapon for blackmailing. The first target of this strategy is Russian oil, and the second is the BRICS alliance standing against America. One member of BRICS today gave Trump a tough message—Brazil's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. In today's DNA, we analysed the strong defiance shown by BRICS members, particularly Brazil's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who openly rejected any negotiations with Trump and characterized his approach as mere intimidation rather than dialogue. #DNAWithRahulSinha #DNA #DonaldTrump… — Zee News (@ZeeNews) August 6, 2025 In a speech, Brazil's president said, 'I will talk to Xi Jinping, I will send an invitation to India's Prime Minister Modi, and if Putin were able to travel, I would invite him too. But I will not talk to Trump because he does not want to talk—he only wants to threaten.' Why did Brazil's president use such strong words against Trump? The reason lies in the harsh tariffs Trump has imposed on BRICS members. Russian oil is merely an excuse; Trump's real goal is to weaken the BRICS group to maintain Western dominance in the world. To understand why Trump harbors such animosity towards the BRICS coalition, one must look closely at the key decisions made at the last BRICS summit. At the summit held in Brazil, the first decision was that BRICS members will conduct trade in their own currencies in the future, which directly threatens the influence of the US dollar over a large part of the world. The members also agreed to establish a BRICS Bank similar to the World Bank. If such a financial institution comes into existence, it will reduce the importance of Western-backed institutions like the World Bank. Additionally, BRICS members decided to increase strategic cooperation to combat terrorism and terror-supporting countries. Should this happen, a significant part of Asia and Africa could pose an organized strategic challenge to the United States and its Western allies. For these reasons, Trump is determined to force BRICS members to bend and create divisions within the alliance. While tariff threats have made 34 countries yield, Trump has been unable to make BRICS's key members—India, China, Russia, and Brazil—budge at all.

Bengaluru stampede: Karnataka HC seeks sealed copy of Justice D'Cunha Commission report
The Karnataka High Court Tuesday directed that a copy of the Justice (Retd) Michael D'Cunha Commission report on the June 4 stampede near Chinnaswamy Stadium be placed before it in a sealed cover. Eleven people were killed in the stampede which occurred during a celebration to mark the June 3 IPL championship victory of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) cricket team. The direction, by a bench consisting of Justices Jayant Banerji and Umesh Adiga, came in the wake of a petition filed by event management company DNA Entertainment seeking that the report be quashed. DNA also contended that it was not provided a copy of the report. As previously reported by The Indian Express, the Commission's report had placed responsibility for the tragedy on the event organisers and senior police officers, following which the government decided to book criminal cases against officials of RCB, DNA Entertainment, and the Karnataka State Cricket Association. Reiterating prior arguments made before the bench, Senior Advocate B K Sampath Kumar, on behalf of DNA, stated, 'We are not given the report. Our reputation is being tarnished day in and day out by the media…and social media also.' He added, 'The time provided (for the inquiry) was one month…but as we understand from the media, the report was only ready on July 11, beyond the period. Nowhere is the power for the one-man Commission to say such-and-such action should be taken against any individuals. It is only to point out who is responsible, what were the lapses, etc.' Kumar also stated that DNA should have had an opportunity to be heard, considering the effect on its reputation and the procedural requirements. He said, 'Before I am hanged, I should be heard…to say it in crude language… Here the Commission was duty bound to do that.' On behalf of the government, Advocate General Shashi Kiran Shetty said that one can't file a petition before the court based on information from the media. 'This is nothing but an abuse of process of court… The question is whether based on a paper publication…that cannot be ground to file a writ petition seeking something.' The matter will be heard further on Thursday.

RICH Alliance: Trump's Tariff War Backfires? Russia Backs India And Hints At Emerging Ties With China
While U.S. President Donald Trump has reportedly stated that he will "substantially" increase tariffs on India, New Delhi has made it clear that it will not yield to pressure. Meanwhile, Russia has also pushed back against Washington's move. Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger once famously said, 'Being America's enemy may be dangerous, but being its friend is fatal.' That sentiment seems to be playing out in real time as the relationship between India and the US may be emerging into a diplomatic turning point. In today's DNA episode, Managing Editor of Zee News, Rahul Sinha, analysed a possible alliance between India, Russia, and China: Watch Full DNA Episode Here: #DNAWithRahulSinha | वर्ल्ड ऑर्डर बदला.. यूएस का 'दबदबा' गया! 'मिशन RICH'..ट्रंप के लिए कितना घातक?#DNA #India #USA #DonaldTrump #TarrifWar@RahulSinhaTV — Zee News (@ZeeNews) August 5, 2025 In a strong statement, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova accused the U.S. of using tariffs as a tool to dominate other nations. She said countries that chose a different path from Washington were being economically pressured and that Russia supports a multipolar and equitable world order. This, she added, is why Russia stands with India—and even with China—against America's hegemonic approach. Zakharova further claimed the U.S. is reacting out of frustration as it struggles to accept its diminishing influence in the new world order. According to her, tariffs and sanctions will not stop the shift toward a new global structure. Zakharova also suggested, a new alliance could be on the brink after the US' tariffs announcement. This emerging alignment between Russia, India, and China could reshape the global balance of power. The question now being asked: Has Donald Trump's aggressive trade policy inadvertently triggered the rise of a powerful R-I-C-H bloc? What Is 'RICH'? A new alliance named 'RICH'—short for Russia, India, and China—could pose an even greater challenge to the United States than the BRICS. The acronym itself, symbolizing 'wealth and prosperity,' hints at a formidable coalition. While Russia has previously called for stronger India-Russia-China cooperation, current global tensions and Trump's policies may make this partnership more realistic than ever before. 'RICH' vs America GDP Power: America has a GDP of US Donald 28 trillion (Rs. 23 lakh crore), but the combined GDP of Russia, India, and China is close behind at Rs. 21 lakh crore. Population Power: Together, India, China, and Russia are home to nearly 3 billion people—about 37 percent of the world's population—far surpassing the U.S., which has just 330 million people or 4 percent of the global total. Military Strength: The combined military strength of the three nations is 4.8 million troops, compared to America's 1.3 million. Even when factoring in NATO allies, the numbers still tilt heavily toward the RICH bloc. Nuclear Arsenal: RICH nations possess approximately 6,300 nuclear weapons, compared to America's 5,200. Defense Capabilities, Self-Sufficiency While the U.S. remains the world's largest arms producer, Russia and China also rank among the top global arms manufacturers. India, too, is rapidly advancing toward self-reliance in defense production. Together, the three countries could pose a significant challenge to NATO on land, at sea, and in the air. However, experts caution that military confrontation between global powers could have catastrophic consequences, making economic and diplomatic battles more likely. Notably, these countries are also resource-rich and largely self-sufficient: Energy: Russia holds vast reserves of oil, gas, and coal and is a major exporter of fossil fuels. India is advancing in nuclear and solar energy, while China leads globally in the manufacture of solar panels and wind turbines. Natural Resources: Russia has significant reserves of titanium, nickel, cobalt, and uranium. China accounts for over 60 percent of global rare earth metal production. India, meanwhile, is rich in bauxite, iron ore, graphite, and manganese. Agriculture: India is the world's largest producer of milk and pulses. Russia leads in wheat exports, while China excels in agricultural machinery and food production. In short, if united, these three nations would have little need for external support in energy, food, or defense. Strategic Shifts and Diplomatic Openings While deep mistrust exists between India and China, recent developments suggest that the gap may be narrowing. India's National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval is set to visit China this month, followed by a trip by External Affairs Minister (EAM) S. Jaishankar. These diplomatic engagements, possibly accelerated by Trump's confrontational tactics, may help bridge long-standing divides.
