Leaders from around the world have been in Qatar to offer condolences to Emir Sheikh Tamim following the death of the nation’s Father Emir, with tributes highlighting his leadership and global legacy.
Not everyone gives a revolver as a gift.
At the end of a historic day, a pleasant surprise was waiting for me in my office. We received 90 mangoes as a gift from the Prime Minister of Pakistan.
Within an hour, only a few were left.
Thank you!

Türkiye and Saudi Arabia signed a new transport and railway co-operation agreement on June 9, advancing plans to modernise the historic Hejaz Railway and potentially extend it to Oman.
The agreement aims to create a new trade corridor linking the Arabian Peninsula to the Indian Ocean and provide an alternative route to the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz, which is the most critical energy bottleneck in the world and currently under pressure due to the US war on Iran
ग़ज़ब की बेशर्मी है भाई अमेरिकी सेना ने हमारे तीन जहाजों पर मिसाइल से हमला किया, तीन भारतीयों की हत्या कर दी।
लेकिन लाल आँखें दिखाना तो दूर, मोदी ट्रम्प के साथ “हीं हीं खी खी” कर रहे हैं।
ट्रम्प मोदी को बच्चों की तरह थपकी दे रहा है।

Dear Shri Mohan Bhagwat ji,
My letter will reach you shortly. However, I thought it was important to draw your attention to this matter early.
——————————-
Firstly, congratulations to the RSS on completing 100 years.
An organisation that claims over 60,000 shakhas and crores of swayamsevaks must also uphold transparency and constitutional accountability.
As per RSS’ highest and most important decision making body Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha’s 2025–26 Karnataka report, the RSS has 4,127 daily shakhas, 1,389 weekly milans, 60 monthly mandalis, 2,194 Samajotsavas with 19.61 lakh participants and held 562 route marches with 2.21 lakh uniformed participants in the state.
With such scale and influence, the RSS must clarify its legal status, registration, office bearers, funding, expenditure, taxation and permissions for public activities.
If citizens, labour, NGOs, trusts, temples and companies are expected to register, disclose and comply with the law, why should the RSS remain exempt?
In its centenary year, the RSS must responsibly abide by the Constitution and register, disclose, pay applicable taxes and function transparently within the Constitution.
As suggested in my letter, I am looking forward to hearing from @RSSorg soon.

ಇಂದು ಲೋಕಭವನಕ್ಕೆ ತೆರಳಿ ರಾಜ್ಯಪಾಲರ ಅನುಪಸ್ಥಿತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಅವರ ವಿಶೇಷ ಕಾರ್ಯದರ್ಶಿಗಳಿಗೆ ರಾಜ್ಯದ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿ ಸ್ಥಾನಕ್ಕೆ ನನ್ನ ರಾಜೀನಾಮೆ ಪತ್ರವನ್ನು ಸಲ್ಲಿಸಿದ್ದೇನೆ.
ಹಳ್ಳಿಗಾಡಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಹುಟ್ಟಿಬೆಳೆದ ನಾನು ಮುಂದೊಂದು ದಿನ ಈ ರಾಜ್ಯದ ಶಾಸಕ, ಮಂತ್ರಿ, ವಿರೋಧ ಪಕ್ಷದ ನಾಯಕ, ಎರಡೆರಡು ಬಾರಿ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿಯಾಗುತ್ತೇನೆ ಎಂಬ ಕನಸನ್ನು ಸಹ ಕಂಡಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಇಂತದ್ದೊಂದು ದುಬಾರಿಯಾದ ಕನಸು ನನಸಾಗಿರುವುದು ಬಾಬಾ ಸಾಹೇಬ್ ಅಂಬೇಡ್ಕರ್ ಅವರ ಸಂವಿಧಾನದಿಂದ.
ಬುದ್ಧ, ಬಸವ, ಬಾಬಾ ಸಾಹೇಬರು, ಮಹಾತ್ಮ ಗಾಂಧಿಯವರೇ ನನ್ನ ಆದರ್ಶ. ನನ್ನ ನಲವತ್ತೆಂಟು ವರ್ಷಗಳ ರಾಜಕೀಯ ಜೀವನದಲ್ಲಿ ನಾಡಿನ ಅವಕಾಶ ವಂಚಿತ, ಶೋಷಿತ, ಬಡ ಜನರ ಪರವಾಗಿ ಪ್ರಾಮಾಣಿಕವಾಗಿ ದುಡಿದ ಸಂತೃಪ್ತಿಯಿದೆ.
ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಶಾಸಕಾಂಗ ಪಕ್ಷದ ನಾಯಕನಾಗಿ ಆರಿಸಿ, ಈ ವರೆಗೆ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿಯಾಗಿ ಜನಸೇವೆಗೆ ಅವಕಾಶ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಟ್ಟ ಪಕ್ಷದ ಶಾಸಕರಿಗೆ, ನನ್ನ ಹೆಗಲಿಗೆ ಹೆಗಲಾಗಿ ದುಡಿದ ಸಂಪುಟ ಸಹೋದ್ಯೋಗಿಗಳಿಗೆ, ಅವಕಾಶ ನೀಡಿದ ಪಕ್ಷದ ವರಿಷ್ಠರಾದ ಸೋನಿಯಾ ಗಾಂಧಿ, ರಾಹುಲ್ ಗಾಂಧಿ, ಎಐಸಿಸಿ ಅಧ್ಯಕ್ಷರಾದ ಮಲ್ಲಿಕಾರ್ಜುನ ಖರ್ಗೆ ಅವರಿಗೆ ಹಾಗೂ ನನ್ನ ರಾಜಕೀಯ ಬದುಕಿನುದ್ದಕ್ಕೂ ಪ್ರೀತಿ ತುಂಬಿದ, ಅಭಿಮಾನಿಸಿದ, ಇಲ್ಲಿಯ ತನಕ ಕೈಹಿಡಿದು ನಡೆಸಿದ ಹೃದಯವಂತ ಕನ್ನಡಿಗರಿಗೆ ನಾನು ಚಿರಋಣಿ.
ಸಂವಿಧಾನವೇ ನನಗೆ ಧರ್ಮ, ಜನರೇ ನನ್ನ ಪಾಲಿನ ದೇವರು. ನನ್ನ ರಾಜೀನಾಮೆ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿ ಹುದ್ದೆಗೆ ಮಾತ್ರವೇ ಸೀಮಿತ, ಸಕ್ರಿಯ ರಾಜಕಾರಣಕ್ಕಲ್ಲ.
ನನ್ನ ಜೀವದ ಕೊನೆಯುಸಿರು ಇರುವ ವರೆಗೂ ಸಾಮಾಜಿಕ ನ್ಯಾಯಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ಮತ್ತು ಸಂವಿಧಾನ ವಿರೋಧಿ ಕೋಮುವಾದಿ ಶಕ್ತಿಗಳ ವಿರುದ್ಧ ಹೋರಾಟ ಮಾಡುತ್ತೇನೆ.
ಧನ್ಯವಾದ ❤
Today, I went to Lok Bhavan and, in the absence of the Governor, handed over my resignation letter from the post of Chief Minister to the Governor’s Special Secretary.
As someone who was born and brought up in a small village, I had never imagined that one day I would become an MLA, a Minister, the Leader of the Opposition, and serve twice as the Chief Minister of Karnataka. A dream this big became possible only because of the Constitution written by Babasaheb Dr. B. R. Ambedkar.
Buddha, Basavanna, Babasaheb Ambedkar, and Mahatma Gandhi have always shown me the path. Through my forty-eight years in public life, I have always tried to stand with honesty beside the poor, the oppressed, the neglected, and those who were denied opportunities in society. That is the greatest satisfaction of my life.
I will forever remain grateful to the party legislators who trusted me and chose me to lead, to my cabinet colleagues who walked with me through every challenge, and to Smt. Sonia Gandhi, Shri Rahul Gandhi, and AICC President Shri Mallikarjun Kharge for believing in me and giving me this responsibility.
But above all, I bow my head before the people of Karnataka, the lakhs of affectionate hearts who treated me as one among their own, blessed me, encouraged me, corrected me, stood by me in difficult times, and held my hand throughout this long journey. Whatever I am today is because of you.
The Constitution is my religion, and the people are my God. My resignation is only from the Chief Minister’s post, not from public life or from my commitment to the people.
Till my last breath, I will continue to fight for social justice and stand against divisive communal forces that go against the spirit of our Constitution.
Thank you for your love, trust, and companionship through every step of this journey. ❤
ನನ್ನ ರಾಜೀನಾಮೆ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿ ಹುದ್ದೆಗೆ ಮಾತ್ರ, ಸಕ್ರಿಯ ರಾಜಕಾರಣಕ್ಕಲ್ಲ.
ನನ್ನ ಜೀವದಲ್ಲಿ ಕೊನೆಯುಸಿರು ಇರುವವರೆಗೆ ಸಾಮಾಜಿಕ ನ್ಯಾಯಕ್ಕಾಗಿ, ಸಂವಿಧಾನದ ಉಳಿವಿಗಾಗಿ ಮತ್ತು ಕೋಮುವಾದದ ವಿರುದ್ಧ ಹೋರಾಟ ಮಾಡುತ್ತೇನೆ.
78 years of ongoing Nakba.
78 years of erasure.
Against all odds, we remain on our land and the land of our ancestors.
Return is our right.
Freedom is our destiny.
On May 15, join the Palestinian people in commemorating the Nakba.

🎥 PAL Global Echo
China's President Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump hailed their ties after day one of the Beijing summit, pledging a “constructive, strategic and stable” relationship while also clashing over Taiwan and Iran.
Al Jazeera's @AlanFisher reports.
🇺🇸🇨🇳 Trump to Xi: "We're going to have a fantastic future together. I have such respect for China. The job you've done. You're a great leader. I say it to everybody. You're a great leader."
Tamil Nadu has chosen.
A new generation. A new voice. A new imagination.
My good wishes to Thiru Vijay - may he fulfil the hopes of the people of Tamil Nadu.
27 Lakh Voters were deleted in West Bengal.
These were not 'dead people' or 'bangladeshis'. These were real people who had already appealed to get their votes restored. The Supreme court could’ve delayed the West Bengal elections until the tribunals finished hearing the appeals of these voters. But they didn’t. Only around 1607 voters were restored in time by phase 2 of these elections. Almost every appeal that was heard turned out to be a wrongful deletion.
In any functional democracy, this would not count as a free and fair election where a large section of voters have lost their voting rights. I'm not saying that TMC would've won for sure if they were added back, maybe BJP would still win, but the question is about the fairness of these elections.
Free and fair elections are a spectrum. Ever since Delhi-Maharashtra-Bihar-Bengal, this needle has moved more and more towards being unfair. Each time somehow the opposition parties participate as usual in the electoral process thinking that they can still pull of a win despite the compromised EC, ED, CBI etc. and each time they have been proven wrong after 2024 Lok Sabha. The question is, at what point will they feel that the level of unfairness is so unfair that elections should be boycotted?
I personally feel TMC should have refused to participate in these elections until all those 27 lakh appeals were finished being heard.
