“I Swear on the Holy Quran…” Omar Abdullah Responds Sharply to BJP Leader Sunil Sharma’s Coalition Claim

** Srinagar | November 10: Political temperatures in Jammu and Kashmir soared on Sunday after Chief Minister Omar Abdullah hit back at BJP leader and Leader of Opposition Sunil Sharma, who had challenged him to swear on the Holy Quran over alleged attempts to form an alliance with the BJP after the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Sunil Sharma had accused Omar Abdullah of secretly trying to strike a post-poll alliance with the BJP in 2024 to regain statehood and political control. Responding to the charge, Omar Abdullah took to X (formerly Twitter), writing, “I swear on the Holy Quran that I never made any attempt, either directly or indirectly, to ally with the BJP — not for statehood, nor for any other reason.” The controversy erupted during the heated campaign ahead of the Nagrota and...

Political Row Erupts Over Mahua Moitra and Pinaki Mishra’s Wedding Reception Venue in Bengal

Krishnanagar (West Bengal): Six months after their private wedding in Berlin, Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra and Biju Janata Dal (BJD) leader Pinaki Mishra hosted a grand wedding reception in West Bengal’s Nadia district on Saturday. What was meant to be a joyous celebration, however, has sparked a major political controversy — with the BJP accusing the couple of using government property for a private event. The reception, attended by nearly 8,000 guests, was held at the Karimpur Regulated Market Ground, which is typically reserved for public and administrative activities. BJP leaders have alleged that the field — a public property — was transformed into a lavishly decorated venue with pandals, lighting, and catering arrangements worth crores, all for a personal celebration.

Gujarat ATS Foils Major Terror Plot: MBBS Student Trained in China Planned Chemical Attack Using Ricin Poison

Ahmedabad: In a major breakthrough, the Gujarat Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) has claimed to have foiled a large-scale terror plot aimed at causing mass destruction in India.

According to DIG Sunil Joshi of the Gujarat ATS, the prime accused, Syed Ahmed Mohiuddin, a resident of Hyderabad, was apprehended near the Adalaj toll plaza on the outskirts of Ahmedabad. Upon his arrest, the ATS recovered two Glock pistols, one Beretta handgun, 30 live cartridges, and four liters of castor oil — a key substance in the production of the highly lethal ricin poison.

I’m a Tiger Who Roams Free, Not a Circus Tiger”: AAP Leader Chaitar Vasava Rejects BJP’s Offer Ahead of PM Modi’s Gujarat Visit

“ Ahmedabad: Political heat is soaring in Gujarat ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s scheduled visit to the state. Firebrand Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Chaitar Vasava has stirred the political landscape by launching a fierce attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), accusing it of pressuring him to defect. Addressing a massive gathering in Chhota Udepur’s Kavant tehsil, Vasava declared, “The BJP is trying to trap me with false cases and force me into their camp. But I am a tiger who roams freely in the jungle — not a circus tiger who dances to someone else’s tunes.” The remarks came just days before Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Dediyapada in Narmada district — the very constituency represented by Vasava. The event is being organized to mark the 150th birth anniversary of trib...

After 22 Years, Wasseypur’s Don Fahim Khan Walks Free — Residents Fear the Return of Gang Wars in Dhanbad

Dhanbad: The release of Fahim Khan, infamously known as the “Don of Wasseypur,” has reignited fear and unease across the coal capital of Jharkhand. Following the Jharkhand High Court’s order, the 75-year-old gangster — who spent over 22 years behind bars — has been freed on humanitarian grounds due to ill health. While his family celebrates, the people of Dhanbad and Wasseypur fear a possible return to the dark, violent past that once defined the region. For decades, Wasseypur was synonymous with gang wars, bloodshed, and revenge killings. The railway line connecting Dhanbad to Gaya had become an infamous dividing line — a “border of death” — between the rival factions of Fahim Khan and Shabbir Khan. Crossing it meant certain death. This railway stretch, running through Wasseypur, becam...

Shocking Scene in Jharkhand: Security Guard Treats Injured Patient in Absence of Doctor at Torpa Referral Hospital

Khunti (Jharkhand): Barely 50 kilometers from the state capital Ranchi, a disturbing picture of Jharkhand’s crumbling healthcare system has emerged from Torpa Government Referral Hospital in Khunti district. In the absence of a doctor, a security guard was seen treating an injured patient, a scene that starkly highlights the dire condition of medical services in 21st-century India and 25-year-old Jharkhand. According to reports, two youths — Naushad from Masjid Mohalla and Roshan from Kamdara — were seriously injured in a road accident near Torpa. Local villagers immediately called for an ambulance, but none arrived. Left with no choice, they rushed the victims to the hospital in a private vehicle. When the patients reached the hospital, no doctor was on duty. Seeing the young men wr...
