In UP's Muzaffarnagar, at least 12 bonded labourers were freed from a paper plate manufacturing unit. Narrating their ordeal, labourers claimed they were tortured using fan belt whip and spear. Roti made of cattle feed and salt was served in the meal. Rottweiler was stationed as gaurds to ensure none of labourers flee from captivity. Main accused Ankit Baliyan is still on the run.
On the day Narendra Modi celebrated a bogus landmark—and world leaders took advantage of his renowned and embarrassing susceptibility to flattery by getting staffers to draft tweets congratulating him—the US military killed three Indian sailors in a deliberate attack on a civilian ship.
Ships with Indian sailors were attacked the day before, and have been attacked again today.
This is the reality of the ‘comprehensive global strategic partnership’ with the US that Modi looks forward to working on—where the US does whatever it wants, including killing Indian nationals on the high seas or territorial waters of sovereign countries, or telling India whom it can and can’t buy oil from, and god knows what else, and Modi bows down and accepts it all.
You know what emboldened the US military? The fact that the previous day, it attacked a ship and placed 24 Indians in harm’s way and Modi’s officials were busy justifying the US action instead of condemning it.
Now that Indian soldiers have been killed, the MEA is going through the motions of summoning a US diplomat to protest but it knows full well that this is an empty gesture, meant to cover their tracks with the Indian public. The official MEA statement is unwilling to even name the country which killed the Indian sailors.
This is not the first time that Modi and @DrSJaishankar have behaved in such a craven fashion. When the Israeli military killed Col Waibhav Kale—a retired Indian Army officer working for the UN—in Gaza in 2024, there was no condemnation of this by the Modi government.
4400 days of ghulami, and counting.
@nitinmeshram_ It's not abt decline in population, it's about an ageing population, drop in labour participation, burden on old age home hospitals exchequer with pension etc
I visited the southernmost tip of India.
I stood at Indira Point. I walked under trees that have stood for centuries. I dove into coral reefs among the most vibrant on earth.
And I sat with the people who live there. Tribal communities, whose land is being taken away by violating the Forest Rights Act. Settlers, many of them former soldiers, placed on these islands by the Indian government, who aren’t getting fair compensation.
The Modi government and BJP tells you Great Nicobar Project is about defence. It is not.
Expand INS Baaz - we will back the government fully. The Navy has been asking for expansion for five years - it has been ignored.
They tell you it is about a transhipment port. It is not. India is already building one in Kerala, which is on the mainland.
What it actually is: 1.5 crore trees felled. Coral reefs erased from official maps. Soldiers and tribals displaced - so one businessman can build hotels and casinos on India’s most irreplaceable ecological land.
Every young Indian I have spoken to understands this. You know that no amount of profit is worth destroying what can never be recovered.
I stand for ecologically balanced development. These islands can be the most extraordinary sustainable destination the world has ever seen. That is the India worth fighting for.

We have been closely monitoring the vulnerabilities in the OnMark portal of our service provider that are being flagged in the public domain. An expert team of cybersecurity professionals has been deployed over the last few days from across various arms of the government as well as the IITs to fortify these systems, including taking them over to a more secure set up. The identified vulnerabilities have been contained, and other exploitable weaknesses are being ruled out.
We are grateful to all alert citizens and ethical hackers pointing out such weaknesses, and have gotten in touch with some of them directly.
We request any others to reach out to our security teams at [email protected] for any further inputs.

@ni5arga@cbseindia29 good morning CBSE, you said you used scanners to scan these copies,
now since the copies are out to the public view, do you mind explaining
which copies when scanned through a scanner, have a drop shadow? and these 3 folds?
did you really use scanners?
