BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari hits out at 'tukde tukde gang', calls for strict laws
Nadia (West Bengal) [India], May 28 (ANI): BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari said that the 'tukde tukde gang' and Pakistan sympathisers remain active in the country, calling for strict laws to curb them. While attending the Tiranga Yatra, Adhikari praised the people of Nadia for supporting the armed forces and boosting Prime Minister Narendra Modi's confidence.
Speaking to ANI, Adhikari said, 'People of Nadia are praising our armed forces and boosting the confidence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi... The tukde tukde gang is still active in the country. Pakistan lovers are also here. They need to be taught a lesson, and strict laws should be enforced...'
The Tiranga Yatra drew widespread public attention, covering major roads and landmarks across West Bengal. Residents lined the streets to cheer and wave flags, creating a vibrant and emotional atmosphere.
Earlier, Adhikari told ANI, 'The Tiranga Yatra is being carried out nationwide. In West Bengal, we have been conducting the yatra. The yatra is witnessing a large turnout. We are proud of our armed forces for their valour and bravery. They have attacked 100 km inside Pakistan. Pakistan is not a country but 'Jungistan' - all the dreaded terrorists have one address, Pakistan.'
India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 in response to the ghastly April 22 Pahalgam terrorist attack that claimed 26 civilian lives, after which Pakistan resorted to shelling on civilian and military establishments here. Indian armed forces retaliated and destroyed 11 of the 13 air bases of Pakistan on the night of May 9 and 10.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had launched the 'Tiranga Yatra' on May 13, which continued until May 23. The yatra was aimed at honouring the courage of Indian soldiers and raising awareness among citizens about the recent success of Operation Sindoor. It also paid tribute to the nation's armed forces for their role in the operation. The rally formed part of a broader nationwide campaign to celebrate national pride and self-respect. (ANI)

Government confident of Parliament consensus on Yashwant Varma's removal
NEW DELHI: If Justice Yashwant Varma doesn't resign and holds on to his argument of being "innocent", he may earn the unenviable distinction of being the only judge to be removed through Parliament's removal motion, with most parties pledging "unity" on the issue of corruption, of which the three-member SC panel has found him guilty. Parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju said most of opposition parties favoured bringing the motion of removal, which may be introduced in the monsoon session (July 21 to Aug 12). Can't approach graft in judiciary through political prism: Rijiju Parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju said most of parties favoured bringing the motion of removal, which, by all accounts, may be introduced in the forthcoming monsoon session, scheduled from July 21 to Aug 12. Rijiju said Cabinet Committee on Parliamentary Affairs (CCPA) has sent the recommendation for the monsoon session to President Droupadi Murmu. The minister said although opposition parties would formally respond in a couple of days, he had been assured of their support and was confident of the same, as there was no scope for politicking as corruption in the judiciary could not be approached through a "political prism". by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villa For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas in Dubai | Search ads Learn More Undo Rijiju said he would also reach out to smaller parties as govt wants all parties to "jointly" move the motion. "Govt feels the matter related to corruption is not one political party's agenda. It is a stand of all parties to fight against the menace of corruption, whether it is the judiciary or any other space," he said. He , however, said the decision on which House the motion would be brought in - LS or RS - would be taken based on the business of each House. According to the Judges (Inquiry) Act, 1968, once a motion to remove a judge is admitted in any of the Houses, the Speaker or the Chairman, as the case may be, will constitute a three-member committee to investigate the grounds on which the removal has been sought. The committee will consist of the CJI or an SC judge, an HC chief justice and a "distinguished jurist". Meanwhile, Congress said govt had announced dates for the monsoon session 47 days in advance to run away from the opposition's demand for an immediate special session to discuss Pahalgam terror attack and Centre's "failure" to bring the terrorists to justice, the impact of Operation Sindoor and its "blatant politicisation".

Exposed: Inside Pakistan's Brutal Crackdown In Balochistan – Killings, Kidnappings And Silence
Geneva/Balochistan/New Delhi: Blood on the sand. Balochistan bleeds again. Pakistan hunts its own. Killings. Kidnappings. Torture. Global watchdogs raise alarm. No action. No justice. Voices vanish. Bodies dumped. Families shattered. And ironically, the world stays silent. Balochistan screams in daylight. The Baloch human rights group, Paank, has condemned the recent alleged extrajudicial killings of Samiullah (son of Muhammad Hanif) and Bismillah (son of Ghulam Sarwar), whose bullet-ridden bodies were discovered on June 3 in the Ganda Gain neighbourhood of Kalat. The two young men, residents of Padang Abad, Mastung, were abducted by Pakistani security agencies on May 29, only to be found lifeless and tossed aside like trash. 'This is not law enforcement; it is a barbaric campaign of annihilation,' Paank posted on X. Paank unequivocally condemns the extrajudicial killing of Samiullah son of Muhammad Hanif and Bismillah son of Ghulam Sarwar, residents of Padang Abad, Mastung district, whose bodies were discovered on June 3, 2025, in the Ganda Gain area of Sheikhri, Kalat. Levies sources… — Paank (@paank_bnm) June 4, 2025 Levies sources confirmed to news agency ANI the brutality and said the victims were shot, discarded and later transported to RHC Mangochar. The purported massacre joins a list of alleged atrocities being documented month after month in Balochistan, including 'staged encounters, torture and targeted assassinations'. The figures speak volumes. Just in February, Paank recorded five 'extrajudicial' killings and 33 'enforced disappearances'. The body of Mehrab, tortured to death, was found in Kech on April 6. Another, Rehana, was allegedly gunned down in Awaran while trying to save her husband from abduction. Sher Khan Nazar was allegedly kidnapped on April 15. Zabid Ali was reportedly pulled from his home in Chaghi on May 11. These are not only numbers; they are lives erased and families destroyed.

When will this end?! #Balochistan… — Noora Baloch (@noorabaloch2) June 4, 2025 As international human rights groups such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch call on Pakistan to end this brutality, Islamabad continues to hide behind impunity. Meanwhile, the alleged clampdown continues. The Balochistan Home Department has extended the detention of Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) leader Shah Ji Sibghatullah by another 30 days under the notorious Maintenance of Public Order (MPO) ordinance. It is his third consecutive extension. Arrested in April, he was first allegedly held in an undisclosed location before being moved to Hudda Jail. The state's condition for release? Stay away from protests, sit-ins and political activism. He refused. 'The judiciary must not obey the orders of the military and intelligence agencies. Unfortunately, both judges have surrendered the principles of justice to the state's will,' said the BYC while slamming the Balochistan High Court for rejecting release petitions. The state's paranoia about dissent is now allegedly spilling over to women and students. On June 4, protesters flooded the streets of Basima in Washuk district, demanding the immediate release of Mahjabeen Baloch and her brother Younus, allegedly abducted by Pakistani security forces on May 29 and May 24 respectively. No warrant. No charges. No court. Just vanishing in plain sight. Mahjabeen, a student of library science at the University of Balochistan, was allegedly dragged out of her hostel in Quetta by intelligence operatives. Her brother was reportedly snatched from their home. Since then, the family has received no word. The Baloch Women Forum called the act an 'act of cowardice' and demanded her unconditional release. 'This is becoming intolerable and intense,' the forum said. Sabiha Baloch of BYC minced no words, 'The state is blatantly continuing genocide against the Baloch. Our youth are being disappeared in daylight and darkness. Now they've started targeting women and children.' The protesters in Basima warned of a province-wide uprising if the siblings are not freed within 24 hours. 'If anything happens to Mahjabeen or Younus, the state and its institutions will be held fully responsible,' they declared. This is what #Balochistan looks like: tanks roll in, homes are burned, drones hover, & families run for their lives.#Pakistan's military doesn't bring peace—it brings destruction. This is the reality #Baloch people face.#PakistanTerroristState #FreeBalochistan @UN_OCT @hrw — Shanaaz Baloch (@ShanaazBaloch) June 3, 2025 Pakistan's alleged dark underbelly of terror in Balochistan has been laid bare – a 'terrifying blend of military might, intelligence cover-ups, judicial silence and systematic erasure of dissent'. While Islamabad lectures the world on democracy and sovereignty, it continues to crush an entire people within its borders. (With ANI inputs)

SP jibe at BJP: Caste census will be held under PDA govt
1 2 Lucknow: Hours after the Centre announced that population census, which will include caste enumeration as well, will begin from March 1, 2027, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav took a jibe at UP govt expressing confidence that caste census in state will be held under the PDA govt. Next UP elections are due in early 2027. SP leadership said the fact that Centre's announcement came on Wednesday was a good omen for the party as exactly a year ago PDA had registered a historic win in the Lok Sabha polls results announced on June 4. The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) announced on Wednesday that population census along with the enumeration of castes will be conducted in two phases from March 1. Akhilesh quoted MHA announcement to claim that when the people's headcount will be done in UP, PDA government will be in place in the state as SP's victory in 2027 assembly polls. "June 4 is that historic day in Indian politics on which exactly one year ago the unity of PDA community registered a sweeping victory over communal politics of negativity. The date marks the beginning of a new chapter in Indian politics which is receptive to human sensitivities and believes in communal amity," Akhilesh said in a statement. In the run up to 2024 polls, SP focussed on bringing together PDA – comprising Pichrde (Backward classes), Dalits and Alpsankhyaks (Minorities) and the move paid rich dividends. SP had emerged as the single largest party in UP with 37 seats – its best ever performance. "PDA's unity will prove to be a milestone in building the future of the county. The PDA of today comprise every Pirdit (those subjected to sufferings), Dukhi (unhappy) and Apmanit (humiliated) backward class member, Dalits and minorities. It also includes "Aadhi Abadi" (exploited women), exploited tribals, poor farmers, labourers, businessmen, unemployed youth and every section of the society that has been subjected to neglect of the BJP government," Akhilesh said. "All deprived, neglected sections of the society are coming together to form the PDA family," the former UP CM said. Akhilesh said PDA was the future of India and every Pirdit was an integral part of the PDA.
