Missing Nehru letters raise questions, BJP demands answers from Sonia Gandhi

Missing Nehru letters raise questions, BJP demands answers from Sonia Gandhi

BJP MP Sambit Patra attacked Congress over the removal of Jawaharlal Nehru`s letters to national and international leaders from a museum. He claimed that Nehru`s letters, including those to Edwina Mountbatten and JP Narayan, were initially displayed in the memorial. However, in 2008, when Sonia Gandhi was UPA chairperson, she took away 51 cartons of these letters. Patra questioned why Sonia Gandhi took the letters before they could be digitized in 2010. He also asked if Rahul Gandhi, as the Leader of Opposition, would ask his mother to return these letters to the nation. He emphasized that the public wants to know the contents of these letters, especially those to Edwina Mountbatten.... [Read More]

Lahore is the world's most polluted city! AQI hits 553

Lahore is the world's most polluted city! AQI hits 553

As winter approaches, Lahore, Pakistan, has become the world’s most polluted city, with its AQI soaring to 1,067 on Nov 2, and 553 on Nov 9, categorized as ‘hazardous.’ The severe pollution, largely attributed to kiln emissions and crop burning, has prompted the government to close schools and enforce work-from-home mandates to safeguard public health. Efforts to mitigate the crisis include the introduction of eco-friendly kiln technologies and the establishment of a ‘Smog War Room’ in Punjab, where an eight-department committee coordinates response measures. Environmental experts emphasize the need for robust data to ensure sustainable solutions. The winter season, with its colder temperatures, exacerbates smog in South Asia, making air pollution a persistent health threat in the region. Immediate actions and long-term strategies are crucial to improving air quality and protecting public health.... [Read More]

VP Dhankar hits out at Rahul Gandhi over reservation remark - WATCH VIDEO

On September 15, Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar addressed concerns about growing prejudice against the reservation system while speaking at the inauguration of the Samvidhan Mandir at Elphinstone Technical High School and Junior College in Mumbai. Dhankhar criticized individuals in constitutional roles who frequently criticize India abroad and advocate for the end of reservations. He described these repeated criticisms as a troubling pattern of prejudice and a serious issue requiring careful thought and discussion. According to Dhankhar, such comments undermine the constitutional commitment to reservations, which are integral to promoting social equality and addressing social disparities. He reaffirmed that, from his constitutional perspective, reservations are a fundamental and positive aspect of the Constitution, designed to foster equality and combat injustice. Dhankhar’s remarks emphasized that reservations are not just a policy but a core principle of the Constitution aimed at achieving social justice and equality.... [Read More]

Rahul Gandhi talks on how Bharat Jodo Yatra changed him, Talks on spirituality

Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha and a Congress MP, reflects on how the Bharat Jodo Yatra changed his perspective on politics. He says the journey transformed how he thinks about his work and his connection with people. Gandhi highlights that the most surprising and impactful outcome of the Yatra was the introduction of the concept of "love" into Indian politics—a rarity in political discourse globally, where terms like hatred and corruption are more common. This idea of love, which emerged naturally during the Yatra, has positively influenced political communication and interaction. Gandhi is impressed by how well this notion has resonated and worked within the political system.... [Read More]
