On Lok Sabha LoP and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi's statement, BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi said objectionable and cheap comments about PM Narendra Modi has once again proved that he does not have the ability and maturity to handle a serious post like the Leader of the Opposition. 'I want to tell Rahul Gandhi what surrender is. You had said on 15 July 2011 that terrorism cannot be controlled. This was a surrender to terrorism. After the 26/11 attack, your government did not allow the army to take action.'

Bid to revive J&K tourism: BJP leader plays cricket in Pahalgam; watch video
Screengrab PTI NEW DELHI: Jammu & Kashmir BJP leader Ravinder Raina on Tuesday played cricket with Pahalgam locals in a bid to revive normalcy in the Valley, which witnessed a sharp decline in tourism after the April 22 terrorist attack at Baisaran meadow. In the clip, the BJP leader was seen bowling and batting with the local kids of the Valley. The efforts are being made from several quarters to revive tourism in Kashmir as travel agents from across the country will converge in Kashmir this weekend to boost tourism in the Valley. The Travel Agents Federation of India (TAFI), which is one of the country's biggest umbrella organisations for agents with over 1,600 members, will be holding its meeting in Srinagar and Pahalgam from June 13-16 to instil confidence among the fraternity. Srinagar hotels and flights commanded a big premium before the Pahalgam attack as Kashmir was seeing unprecedented tourist footfalls post Covid. But after the April 22 attack, tourists already there left Kashmir in droves and those who had plans to visit cancelled the same. J&K is currently focussed on ensuring a safe Amarnath Yatra as they hope that will send out a message that tourists can return to Kashmir. The yatra duration has been curtailed to 38 days, instead of 52 days in 2024, and will be on between July 3 and August 9, 2025. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Your Address of Pride – Signature Global SPR Signature Global Book Now Undo A total of 581 companies from various Central Armed Police Forces, along with personnel from the Jammu and Kashmir Police, will be deployed along the pilgrimage routes to ensure safety of the lakhs of pilgrims.

Students living in U.S. being repeatedly mistreated but PM Modi is silent: Congress
The Congress on Tuesday (June 10, 2025) slammed the government after a video emerged showing an Indian student being handcuffed and pinned to the floor at a U.S. airport, and demanded that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should immediately talk to President Donald Trump to appeal for intervention on the 'mistreatment' of Indians in America. Congress leaders shared the video and pictures of an Indian student handcuffed and pinned to the floor at U.S.'s Newark Airport before he was allegedly deported. The Consulate General of India in New York has said it is in touch with local authorities after the video surfaced online showing the young Indian man being handcuffed and allegedly being deported. 'We have come across social media posts claiming that an Indian national is facing difficulties at Newark Liberty International Airport. We are in touch with local authorities in this regard,' the Indian Consulate said in a post on X. U.S. crackdown on students | What are New Delhi's options | Worldview Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh alleged that the Modi Government is continuously failing to protect the honour of India and Indians. 'For the first time in history, a foreign head of state has declared ceasefire between India and Pakistan in India's absence. US President Trump is continuously claiming to have ensured a ceasefire by pressuring India,' Mr. Ramesh said in his post in Hindi on X. 'For the past one year, Indian citizens and students living in America are being repeatedly mistreated but Prime Minister Modi is maintaining silence or it should be assumed that he is unable to muster the courage to speak,' Mr. Ramesh said. He is the Prime Minister of India, it is his most important responsibility to protect the honour and respect of India and Indians, Mr. Ramesh asserted. 'We demand that Prime Minister Modi should immediately talk to President Trump and appeal for intervention on the mistreatment and atrocities being committed against Indians in America,' he said. Congress' media and publicity department head Pawan Khera tagged a post on X carrying the video, which was posted online by an Indian-American social entrepreneur Kunal Jain. The video shows the Indian man pinned to the ground by Port Authority Police and being handcuffed. 'I witnessed a young Indian student being deported from Newark Airport last night — handcuffed, crying, treated like a criminal. He came chasing dreams, not causing harm. As an NRI, I felt helpless and heartbroken. This is a human tragedy,' Mr. Jain said in his post. Tagging Mr. Jain's post, Mr. Khera said, 'This is too painful, too humiliating and too distressing to watch. As a country, why should we tolerate this humiliation?' 'From the days where we showed the muscle to the U.S. during the Devyani Khobragade issue to now seeing our citizens being treated like animals, do we have no goodwill left in the world?' the Congress leader said.

Robert Vadra seeks new date after ED summons: Sources
New Delhi [India], June 10 (ANI): Businessman Robert was summoned by the Enforcement Directorate on Tuesday. However, Vadra has informed the central agency that he would not appear today and sought a fresh date, sources said. On April 17, after the Enforcement Directorate interrogated him on Thursday in connection with the Gurugram land case, businessman Robert Vadra said that the investigative agency was asking him repeated questions that he had already answered in 2019. 'There was no new question; all the questions were repeated from 2019. If tomorrow were not a public holiday, I would have to celebrate my birthday in the ED office. 'Tomorrow is Good Friday, and I will celebrate my birthday with my family; otherwise, they will keep calling me,' Vadra told the media. Vadra appeared before the ED for the third consecutive day in response to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) summons. Vadra slammed the action as a 'political vendetta', accusing the government of misusing investigative agencies to target opposition voices. Vadra questioned the ED's impartiality, alleging selective action against leaders from non-BJP parties while vowing to continue his fight against 'injustice'. 'This is a political vendetta. Agencies are being misused. This is wrong. How will there be trust in agencies when they are after any candidates for the CM position in the country, or when a party is doing well? Which BJP minister or member has been summoned by the ED? Why has none of them been summoned? Is everyone in the BJP good? Do they not have any allegations against them? 'There are several allegations,' Vadra said. Vadra also claimed that the ED's action against him was fueled when he started raising his voice over atrocities against minorities. 'If I were to enter politics, which is what everyone wants, they (the BJP) would either speak of dynasty or misuse ED. This difficulty started when, a few days back, I gave messages through social media regarding atrocities against minorities. This is nothing else. Ever since I said that people wanted me to enter politics, this difficulty has started. But the ED summons has no basis,' he said. (ANI)
