Deeply saddened by the passing of Asha Bhosle Ji, one of the most iconic and versatile voices India has ever known. Her extraordinary musical journey, spanning decades, enriched our cultural heritage and touched countless hearts across the world. Be it her soulful melodies or vibrant compositions, her voice carried timeless brilliance. I’ll always cherish the interactions I’ve had with her.
My condolences to her family, admirers and music lovers. She will continue to inspire generations and her songs will forever echo in people’s lives.

At the programme to mark the 70th birthday of His Majesty the Fourth King, the people of Bhutan expressed solidarity with the people of India in the wake of the blast in Delhi through a unique prayer. I will never forget this gesture.
I have decided to donate my match fees from this tournament to support our Armed Forces and the families of the victims who suffered from the Pahalgam terror attack. You always remain in my thoughts 🙏🏽

This indeed is a big strategic move and will surely be beneficial for NDA in upcoming Bihar Elections. But, this sure doesn't set any good example.
The taxpayers money is being utilised for these freebies. And, are these freebies really going to be beneficial in the long run. Freebies just make people less hardworking bcoz they know that even if they don't work, they still will survive, so working is not required.
But, do we really want this? This needs serious introspection and as far as I am concerned, the freebies should be banned completely by the ECI or there should be some law against this.
Russian President Vladimir Putin not only spoke to PM Modi over a call but also posted a video message wishing him on his birthday.
That’s the kind of aura PM Modi carries… No wonder the Congress ecosystem is so rattled.
Join the nation in conveying best wishes to Prime Minister @narendramodi ji on his birthday.
His transformative leadership and firm resolve to build an Atmanirbhar, Sammridh and #ViksitBharat serves as an inspiration.
Wish him good health and many more years in the service of the nation.
#HappyBdayPMModi
Yes, Trump highly under-estimated India, thinking it is just another Middle-Eastern Asia country of a small African country upon whom he can flex his muscles
This is India & gone were the days India used to buckle down under the pressure of Western powers
Trump is the biggest idiot to ruin it all for the sake of a Nobel Peace Prize nomination from his bootlickers _ Pakistan
India has always made it clear - no mediation or external pressure will be tolerated when it comes to its internal matters
Trade, Russian oil is just excuses, Modi has Trump the most where it hurts the most - HIS EGO
His ego is bruised & shattered & he is trying to use media pressure from his pet dogs like Navarro & others
After the proceedings at the SCO Summit venue, President Putin and I travelled together to the venue of our bilateral meeting. Conversations with him are always insightful.
