Ravi Shankar Prasad Blasts Pakistan Generals, Explains Why It's Called ‘Operation Sindoor'
BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad delivers a scathing indictment of Pakistan's military leadership, stating that the generals misuse terrorists to further their personal agendas. Speaking after an all-party delegation's global outreach post the Pahalgam terror attack, Prasad emphasized that 'no form of terrorism is acceptable,' quoting international leaders who stood by India. Drawing a stark contrast between India and Pakistan since 1947, he said while India is the 4th largest economy, Pakistan 'begs with a bowl.' He also revealed the emotional reason behind naming the counterstrike as Operation Sindoor: 'The sindoor of our daughters and sisters was wiped off.' This operation, he said, was launched to wipe out those responsible. His words underscore India's unified and resolute stance against terror.

Amid bid to rebuild China ties, Rajnath Singh to attend SCO meet
File photo: Defence minister Rajnath Singh (PTI) NEW DELHI: Defence minister Rajnath Singh is set to visit China later this month for Shanghai Cooperation Organisation defence ministers' meet, which comes amid efforts by New Delhi and Beijing to rebuild and stabilize bilateral ties, though de-escalation between the rival armies is yet to take place along the Line of Actual Control. Singh is likely to have a bilateral meeting with his Chinese counterpart Admiral Dong Jun on the sidelines of the SCO meet on June 24-25, in what will be his first visit as defence minister to China. "The final details are still being worked out," an official said on Saturday. Pakistan defence minister Khawaja Asif is also slated to attend the SCO meet, which is taking place soon after intense cross-border military hostilities between India and Pakistan from May 7 to 10. Both India and Pakistan in 2017 became full members of the SCO, which also includes Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Iran and Belarus. Along the 3,488-km LAC with China, there are as yet no signs of de-escalation and de-induction of troops after disengagement at the two remaining face-off sites at Depsang and Demchok in eastern Ladakh last Oct, which has led to restoration of patrolling by the rival soldiers and grazing by herders as well as reduced the risk of any inadvertent escalation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Ambato: Ecuatorianos: generen un segundo ingreso con Amazon CFD.

Moreover, the deep military collusiveness between Pakistan and China was quite evident during Operation Sindoor. Pakistan used several Chinese weapons and platforms, ranging from J-10 fighters firing the PL-15 beyond visual range air-to-air missiles to HQ-9 air defence missile batteries, during the hostilities with India. Pakistan is also set to acquire at least 40 J-35A fifth-generation stealth jets and the HQ-19 long-range air defence missile systems from China.

Was disappointed with lack of facilities on AI flight: Parmar
Gandhinagar: BJP leader Jayrajsinh Parmar, who travelled on the same ill-fated plane earlier this month from Gatwick in London to Ahmedabad, said that while the pilots were skilled, facilities like GPS, LCD screens, and intercom inside the plane were not functioning properly. "Three or four days ago, I came to Ahmedabad from Gatwick on the same plane. During take-off and landing, I did not sense any weakness on the part of the pilots. But the facilities were not up to the mark, and there cannot be any difference of opinion on this," he said. "The GPS system was not working, and the LCD or LED screen was also not functioning. The internal telecom system was also not there. The flight is a non-stop from Gatwick to Ahmedabad and is very popular among Gujaratis, as it is a direct flight to Ahmedabad. But I was disappointed by the lack of facilities in the plane," he added. Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .

‘ED action taken on behest of BJP': Cong protests attachment of its Sukma office
Raipur: Congress staged a protest across all the district headquarters of the state on Saturday, burning effigies of the BJP govt and the enforcement directorate (ED) to condemn the ED's attachment of the Congress office in Sukma. Chhattisgarh Pradesh Congress committee president Deepak Baij criticised the ED attachment of the party office , stating the agency is acting as an 'associate organisation' of the BJP. He made these remarks while addressing media persons on Friday. Baij said the ED's action was taken at the behest of the central govt and the BJP, despite the Congress providing all financial details for the construction of the Sukma office. He termed the move an 'attack on democracy'. In protest, the Congress organised demonstrations and burnt effigies of the ED across all district headquarters in the state on Saturday. Meanwhile, the Shahar Jila Congress committee in Raipur staged a protest at Rajiv Gandhi Chowk here. Congress workers gathered at Rajiv Gandhi Chowk, raising slogans against the BJP govt and the ED. There was a brief scuffle between party workers and the police during the effigy burning. Speaking on the occasion, the party's city president Girish Dubey said that sealing the Congress office in Sukma by the ED is a direct attack on democracy, the Constitution, and the freedom of the opposition. He added that despite all documents related to the construction of the Congress Bhawan being submitted to the ED previously, the attachment of the building shows the central BJP govt is misusing central agencies to intimidate and suppress political opponents. Former MLA Vikas Upadhyay warned that if the Congress Bhawan is not reopened immediately and the ED's politically motivated action is not investigated, the Congress party will protest from 'street to Parliament'. The ED had attached the Congress party office in Sukma district on Friday, along with assets linked to former excise minister MLA Kawasi Lakhma and his son. The action, taken under the PMLA, formed part of the ongoing investigation into the alleged over Rs 2000 crore scam during the previous Congress govt.
