PM Modi’s Commentary on Global Tensions Amid Iran-Israel Conflict Sparks Attention

The globe is going through “uncertain times,” according to PM Narendra Modi, who stated on Sunday that this makes a stable majority government all the more necessary. On a day when Iran’s proxies and allies carried out coordinated attacks on Israeli sites, Prime Minister Modi made his remarks during the unveiling of the Bharatiya Janata Party’s electoral manifesto for the Lok Sabha elections in 2024 in New Delhi. Despite years of animosity stemming from the Islamic Revolution of 1979, Iran has never before launched a direct military attack on Israel. This attack occurred less than two weeks after a suspected Israeli strike in Syria that claimed the lives of two Iranian generals in an Iranian consulate building.

Modi stated, “The cloud of uncertainty is hovering over the world today,” without naming any specific nation. There is a state of conflict. Everything is tight. Our top goal during these emergencies is the safety of the Indian residents of these areas. In times of global tensions like these, it is even more important to have a strong, stable government with a majority—one that will propel the nation quickly toward “Viksit Bharat” and economic prosperity. The BJP is committed to achieving this. A guarantee for one such government is provided by the BJP manifesto. Iran’s historic nocturnal onslaught, according to the Israeli military on Sunday, has been “foiled,” with hundreds of missiles and drones intercepted with assistance from the US and allies.

Amidst the current conflict between Israel and Hamas, a Palestinian terrorist group, in the Gaza Strip, the strike, which started late on Saturday, represents a significant intensification of the long-running clandestine war between the regional adversaries. One of the first international leaders to denounce the attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, and to show resolute support for the nation was Modi. India appears to have reevaluated its strategy in light of its past positions on Palestine and a two-state solution, as well as its other Middle Eastern alliances, as the ensuing conflict has dragged on for months.

‘Good Day For Democracy’: PM Modi Says SC Order A ‘Tight Slap’ On Those Attempting To Malign EVMs

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday invited the Preeminent Court’s administration in the EVMs-VVPAT case and said the arrangement is a “tight slap” on those individuals who persistently attempted to “malign EVM.”.

“These individuals persistently attempted to insult EVM, but nowadays SC gives them an exceptionally tight slap. They will not be able to see anything; nowadays is a great day for democracy,” the prime minister said while tending to an open rally in Bihar’s Araria.

PM Modi encouraged and highlighted how each pioneer of the INDI union “sinned making questions in the minds of the open concerning EVM,” but the Incomparable Court’s arrangement “shattered all their dreams” and “intended to plunder the poll boxes.”.

“Every pioneer of the INDI organization together has sinned making questions in the minds of the open with respect to EVM. But nowadays, under the control of the country’s majority rule government and Baba Saheb Ambedkar’s structure,  the Preeminent Court has given such an extreme blow to those who plan to plunder the poll boxes that all their dreams have been shattered.

“Today, when the entire world is lauding India’s popular government, India’s decision-making process, and the utilization of innovation in decisions, at that point these individuals were actively stigmatizing EVM for their individual interface.

They have persistently attempted to sell out democracy,” he added. Earlier nowadays, the Preeminent Court rejected the supplications looking for vote paper voting and rejected supplications looking for cross-verification of the votes cast in Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) with Voter Irrefutable Paper Review Path (VVPAT).

“We have rejected all of them, after alluding to the convention in put, specialized perspectives, and information that is on record,” Equity Sanjiv Khanna said, concurring with a Live Law report.

Indian-origin student at Princeton arrested for participating in a pro-Palestine protest, barred from the university

Indian-origin student at Princeton arrested for participating in a pro-Palestine protest, barred from the university

Achinthya Sivalingan, an Indian-origin student, was one of two students arrested Thursday at Princeton University in the United States for engaging in a pro-Palestine protest on campus.

Sivalingan and Hassan Sayed, both from Coimbatore, were arrested early Thursday morning as student protesters set up tents in the university courtyard, according to the Princeton Alumni Weekly.

“According to a paper provided by demonstrators, the arrested students are Achinthya Sivalingam and Hassan Sayed. Urvi, a first-year Ph.D. student who only wanted to be named by her first name, described the arrest as “violent” and claimed zip ties were placed around their wrists, according to the college alumni magazine.

ARRESTED FOR TRESPASSING
In a statement, Jennifer Morrill, a spokesperson for the University, noted that erecting tents violated University regulations, resulting to the arrest of the two students for trespassing “[a]fter repeated warnings from the Department of Public Safety to cease the activity and leave the area.”

Additionally, Morrill stated that Sivalingan and Sayed “have been immediately barred from campus, pending a disciplinary process.” She added that the remaining tents were “voluntarily taken down by protestors.”

Sivalingam is pursuing a Master of Public Affairs (MPA) in International Development at Princeton, while Sayed is a fifth-year PhD candidate in the famed university’s economics department.

SIVALINGAM AND SAYS ‘NOT EVICTED’

According to The Daily Princetonian, student organizers have circulated an Instagram document urging alumni and other university members to call and email the University to stop disciplinary actions, claiming that Sivalingam and Sayed were removed from their campus housing and given only five minutes to collect their belongings.

However, in a statement, university spokesperson Michael Hotchkiss emphasized that no one has been ‘evicted’.

“No one has been ‘evicted’ from the university today. Under University protocol, Public Safety may initially accompany students barred from campus (for any reason) to their University housing to collect whatever belongings they require in the short term until the specific terms of their bar from campus are determined by the designated administrator,” Hotchkiss stated.

He went on to state, “Those who were banished from the primary campus nowadays are allowed to remain in their university-owned lodging, as the assigned chairman chose that their bar did not apply to their non-dormitory residences.”

Pro-Palestine energizers have cleared through driving colleges in the United States, with hundreds of understudies taking to their campuses to condemn the fatalities in Gaza caused by the Israeli military campaign.

These shows are one of the earliest instances of clashes between law enforcement and understudies challenging the rising passing toll in Israel’s struggle with the Palestinian activist group Hamas. Student nonconformists have been encouraging their colleges to strip their speculations about Israel and advocate for a quick ceasefire.

Varun Gandhi rejects the BJP’s offer to fight from Rae Bareli after considering it for more than a week

Varun Gandhi rejects the BJP’s offer to fight from Rae Bareli after considering it for more than a week

Varun Gandhi, a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) pioneer and cousin of Congress pioneers Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi, is said to have turned down an offer from his party to run for Lok Sabha from Rae Bareli in Uttar Pradesh. This place is respected as a Gandhi family fortress, with Sonia Gandhi and Indira Gandhi having already won it.

The welcome to Varun Gandhi came after the hypothesis that Priyanka Gandhi might run from Rae Bareli. Varun Gandhi, who was evacuated from his Pilibhit situate, took time to mull over the offer, recently declining it, claiming a wish to maintain a strategic distance from an individual and a divisive decision campaign.

The BJP had trusted Varun Gandhi would acknowledge the offer, given his family’s history with the situation. His mother, Maneka Gandhi, had challenged Rajiv Gandhi in 1984. In any case, Varun Gandhi’s choice not to challenge has left the BJP without a candidate for Rae Bareli.

The Congress, on the other hand, has not yet reported its candidates for Rae Bareli or Amethi. The party’s hold over Rae Bareli has been debilitating, with declining vote offers in later races in spite of progressive wins. This has raised concerns for the Congress, particularly with compelling neighborhood pioneers like Rae Bareli joining the BJP.
