A BIG story that got lost in the drumbeat of war. How the REAL Covid death figures were never told by the Govt to the nation: the truth is only now slowly and quietly coming out (Covid chapter in my 2024 election book has more details that are now turning out to be spot on) z🙏
What a sad day, foreign secretary had to protect his account because he and his daughter were receiving hate. Not from Pak but our own "nationalists" . The man was just doing his job and following orders from the Govt. And he did that with professionalism
We salute the supreme sacrifice made by BSF #Braveheart Sub Inspector Md Imteyaz in service of the nation on 10 May 2025 during cross border firing along the International Boundary in R S Pura area, District Jammu.
While leading a BSF border out post, he gallantly led from the front.
DG BSF and all ranks offer their deepest condolences to his family.
Wreath laying ceremony with full honours shall take place tomorrow at Frontier HQ Jammu, Paloura.
Pakistan and India have agreed to a ceasefire with immediate effect. Pakistan has always strived for peace and security in the region, without compromising on its sovereignty and territorial integrity!
NDTV reporter is heard saying-

Finally!
PM Modi is FORCED to do a press conference in the US - something he hasn’t done in India in 11 years.
THIS is why he NEVER takes press questions in India.
THIS is why his “interviews” in India are fully scripted.
He’s so ANGRY & FLUSTERED 👇
