Rahul Gandhi urges PM Modi to end woes of OBC students
New Delhi: The leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi , urging him to address the issues of delays in distribution of post-matric scholarships for students from backward communities and the poor conditions in residential hostels for these students. Gandhi cited his experience during a visit to a university hostel in poll-bound Bihar to raise the issues, saying they are also prevalent in other parts of the country. He sought regular audit of these hostels as well as enhanced and regular payment of pre-matric scholarships for these sections of students. "I request you to resolve two critical issues which hinder education opportunities for the 90% of students who are from marginalized communities . Firstly, the conditions in residential hostels for students from Dalit, ST (scheduled tribe), EBC (extremely backward classes), OBC (other backward classes) and minority communities are deplorable," Gandhi said in his letter dated June 10.

Even America can't control Trump—Rathore retorts as he defends diplomatic response to US deportations
' Yeh jo antarrashtriya diplomacy hai, uske andar lagatar hamari Ministry of External Affairs doosre deshon ke saath baat karti hai (The Ministry of External Affairs is in constant touch with other countries when it comes to international diplomacy),' he said. ' Aur is case mein America ke saath baat kar rahi hai. Abhi hum jab baat kar rahe hain, usse kuch din pehle hi hamare External Affairs Minister America mein the. Nishchit roop se yeh saari baatein ho rahi hain (In America's case, our external affairs minister (S. Jaishankar) has just concluded a visit to the US, all these conversations are definitely taking place).' At a press conference on 11 years of the Modi government, in Bikaner Tuesday, Rathore fired a sharp retort when asked why New Delhi hadn't taken a more forceful stand against the treatment of Indians overseas. New Delhi: Days after a video surfaced of a young Indian man being pinned down and handcuffed at New York's Newark airport, Rajasthan cabinet minister and BJP MLA Col. Rajyavardhan Rathore, while defending New Delhi's response to US deportations of Indian nationals, said even America cannot control its president Donald Trump. He went on to say: 'Jis Rashtrapati ki aap baat kar rahe hain, usko America hi nahi control kar paaya. Toh Bharat toh baatcheet kar hi raha hai (The President [Trump] you're referring to, even America couldn't control him. So of course, India is engaging in dialogue).' Without naming Trump, Rathore appeared to draw a contrast between India's steady diplomatic engagement and America's own internal challenges during the Trump presidency, which saw frequent and often sudden shifts in immigration policy. His remarks come amid outrage over the latest incident, which follows a spate of deportations of Indian nationals from the US. In February, there was an uproar over visuals of Indians being deported in handcuffs, with even their legs chained as they were being brought back in a US military aircraft. Jaishankar had at the time said that the use of restraints has been standard operating procedure by US authorities since 2012. Nearly 16,000 Indians have been deported from the US since 2009, for attempting to enter the North American country illegally, the external affairs minister had informed the Rajya Sabha then, adding that New Delhi is engaging with the US to ensure Indians deported are not 'mistreated' in any manner by American authorities.

CM Siddaramaiah asserts Karnataka's right to raise Almatti dam height despite Maharashtra's objections
BELAGAVI: In a major development, Chief Minister Siddaramaiahhas taken an aggressive stand with regard to his government's decision to increase the height of Almatti dam from the present 519.60M to 524.256 M. On June 9, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had urged Siddaramaiah in his letter to reconsider the state government's decision to increase the height of Almatti dam, claiming that the rise in dam height would result in floods in areas of Sangli and Kolhapur districts. In his letter to his Maharashtra counterpart written on June 11, Siddaramaiah expressed his government's commitment to increase the dam height. He clarified his government's stand not only on the submergence issues but also on its right to raise Almatti dam height to FRL (Full Reservoir Level) 524.256 M even without waiting for the publication of the award by the Union government under Section 6(1) of the Inter State Water Dispute Act of 1956.
