I met with India’s Minister of External Affairs @DrSJaishankar. We discussed important issues. We are grateful to India for its commitment to ending this unjust war – Russia’s war against Ukraine. This certainly must not be a time of war. Peace is needed. This is India’s clear position. Today, while the Minister was here with us in Kyiv, Russia once again launched jet-powered “shaheds,” which were developed not without Iran’s help. Thanks to our combat aviation, the delegation was safe, because it is Ukrainian fighter jets that shoot down most of these drones. We hope that other major world powers will also take a clear stance that this war must end and that a reliable peace must be achieved.
Of course, we discussed the situation in the Black Sea, including the existing threats to civilian shipping. We concur that it is absolutely unacceptable to block food supplies to regions where this is a highly sensitive issue and where people depend on these maritime routes. Russia’s actions aimed at blocking our ports, our food corridor, and our supplies are causing major disruption to global relations. We must all work together to guarantee security. Thank you!
Had extensive discussions with President Putin. Discussed the full range of the India-Russia Special and Privileged Strategic Partnership. It is gladdening to see significant progress across various sectors in recent years.
Focus areas for the India-Russia friendship remain energy, innovation, space, fertilisers and people-to-people linkages.
Провёл обстоятельные переговоры с Президентом Путиным. Обсудили весь спектр вопросов индийско-российского особо привилегированного стратегического партнёрства. Отрадно видеть значительный прогресс по целому ряду направлений за последние годы.
Ключевыми областями индийско-российской дружбы остаются энергетика, инновации, космос, удобрения и связи между людьми.
Pleased to call on President Vladimir Putin of Russia in Moscow today. Handed over a personal message from Prime Minister @narendramodi.
Briefed him on the deliberation held under the 27th IRIGC-TEC, reviewing our cooperation across a wide range of domains. Value his guidance in that regard.
Also discussed regional and global issues of importance.

Raksha Bandhan ad by GIVA, a jewellery brand.
It is pathbreaking because women across the country were feeling oppressed by societal expectations to dress traditionally or modestly for Raksha Bandhan, and they needed something that broke the stereotype. Finally, it is here. The shackles are broken. Empowerment is here.
More powder to Kriti Sanon.

Modi govt destroyed the ISI-backed terror group Shahzad Bhatti Network ahead of Independence Day and thwarted its plans for subversive attacks by arresting more than 200 operatives.
Indian security forces ripped apart the network by launching coordinated operations across different locations in 14 states upholding a brilliant example of India's zero-tolerance towards terrorism.
Substantial recoveries, including IEDs, grenades bearing Pakistan Ordnance Factory markings, pistols, live cartridges, and CCTV cameras used for espionage, were made from the ISI-funded group. The network was involved in several terrorist activities.
India arrests 253 people in 14 states in a crackdown on Pakistan based, ISI backed Shahzad Bhatti Network

On behalf of the United States of America, I extend warm congratulations to the people of India on their Independence Day.
Thanks to the personal relationship between President Trump and Prime Minister Modi, the U.S.-India relationship continues to grow and is stronger than ever.
From defense and energy security to critical minerals, artificial intelligence, space cooperation, and commerce, our collaboration is making both of our nations, and the broader Indian Ocean region, safer, stronger, and more prosperous.
The deep ties of friendship and family between our two peoples form the foundation of a partnership that is innovative, resilient, and forward-looking. The United States looks forward to the future our two countries will build together.
I am asking the same, one year later, this independence day to PM @narendramodi. India needs to gain independence from adversarial programming of our people & children's minds with obnoxious, perverted, and propaganda content against India and its culture. Please do something 🙏 You may consider these: https://t.co/stGyhh2vnr @PMOIndia@HMOIndia@MIB_India
Supreme Court in a maintenance/divorce case:
Counsel for husband: He has appeared 600 times before courts because of various proceedings by the wife.
Court indicates putting an end to the proceedings.
Counsel for the wife: she is not agreeable…
Court: how long will you keep harassing this man? He is remarried, has children. 60-70 lakhs have already been paid to you. Enough is enough! Nobody will utter a single word now.
No disrespect to Tukaram Mundhe, staying upright in a corrupt setup takes insane grit. But when an officer gets hero-worshipped just for doing what he’s paid to do, it shows how rock-bottom the work ethic in our public administration really is.
China's Long March rocket launching an important military/civilian dual use satellite exploded during its launch from Hainan as curious kids were watching. A bad day for their scientists. Better luck next time.
