Trinamool seeks transparent probe into Ahmedabad plane crash
The Trinamool Congress has called for a 'thorough, transparent, and unbiased investigation' into the crash of Air India flight AI171, while condemning the emergence of what it described as conspiracy theories following the tragedy. The aircraft, bound for London from Ahmedabad, crashed shortly after take-off on the afternoon of June 12, resulting in the deaths of nearly all passengers and crew members. As per current reports, only one passenger is known to have survived. The aircraft also claimed several lives on the ground after it crashed into a residential area near the runway. 'We need a thorough and unbiased investigation of the plane accident… it is not right to float theories such as bird hit and create a perception even before a proper investigation is conducted,' Trinamool Congress spokesperson Kunal Ghosh said on Friday (June 13, 2025). Referring to previous transport-related incidents during the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government's tenure, Mr. Ghosh said the present state of passenger safety and service raises concerns. 'This aircraft travelled from Paris to Delhi, then from Delhi to Ahmedabad, smoothly. Then what happened? Was the aircraft not properly maintained? To discern this, we need a proper investigation by proper specialists and authorities,' he said.

Oppn slams Giriraj for calling Congress a party of ‘traitors'
Patna: The opposition INDIA bloc on Friday launched a scathing rebuttal to Union minister Giriraj Singh after he accused the Congress of being "thethar" (obstinate) and labelled it a party of 'traitors' intent on spreading lies and confusion. While listing PM Narendra Modi's achievements during his 11-year tenure, Giriraj had said in Bhagalpur on Thursday, "They (Congress) only create confusion and can't even see that the number of EPFO members in the country has gone up over 30 crore despite 2 crore children taking birth in the country every year. PM Modi has been making continuous efforts to provide jobs." At another event hosted by the Red Cross Society in Begusarai, the BJP leader also took aim at RJD chief Lalu Prasad for cutting his birthday cake with a sword. "Some parties are preparing to fight the electoral battle by disguising themselves and spreading confusion. The opposition is using various tricks to deceive the people," he said, while dismissing Congress's claims about unemployment and migration in Bihar. Responding sharply, Congress's state media cell chairman Rajesh Rathorre said, "He is a leader of the 'gaalibaaz' party and speaks divisive and abusive language to remain in the media limelight. He has been a minister for so many years and must tell even a single work he has done for the state." RJD spokesperson Ejaz Ahmed also hit back, accusing the Union textile minister of failing to secure even one of the nine proposed textile parks for Bihar. "In the 11 years of Modi rule, 22 crore people should have got jobs and employment, but only about eight lakh jobs and employment have been given by the central govt since 2014. This makes it clear why the double-engine govt has made Bihar a laggard state in every respect, be it in the field of education or human development index," said Ejaz.
