The Indian opposition’s challenge to Modi is faltering

NEW DELHI: An opposition effort to jointly challenge Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a national election is faltering after one key party switched sides and two others broke ranks. The developments give a boost to Modi’s goal of winning nearly three-quarters of the seats in elections due by May. The Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) return to power in the eastern state of Bihar on Sunday after a regional party quit the opposition bloc means it will contest elections in three of India’s four most politically important states. Bihar sends the fourth most directly elected MPs to parliament, while neighboring

India strengthens ties with France. Macron chief guest at the national holiday

NEW DELHI: French President Emmanuel Macron will attend India’s Republic Day celebrations on Friday as chief guest as New Delhi and Paris continue to negotiate multibillion-dollar deals to buy French fighter jets and submarines for the Indian military. But officials in New Delhi and Paris said the visit would be more ceremonial than substantive and no major results were expected. France is India’s second largest arms supplier and has been one of its oldest and closest partners in Europe for decades. It was the only Western nation not to impose sanctions on New Delhi after India conducted nuclear tests in

Who killed India’s CDS Gen Bipin Rawat?

Four-star generals don’t just obliterate into pieces for no solid reason. The probability of a genuine helicopter crash is 9.84 accidents out of 10,000 hours in the air, which comes down to 0.0984% for one hour of helicopter travel according to Tork Law which specialises in legal action pertaining to such accidents. While it may be true that Gen Bipin Rawat died in an unfortunate accident, probability does not support this argument. Neither do distinct voices within India’s military. Brigadier (R) Sudhir Sawat has alleged that the death of India’s top-ranking military official may have conspirational elements attached to it.

75 political activists detained in Indian Occupied Kashmir after local elections

SRINAGAR: Continuing the fascist policies of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Indian government detained 75 political leaders and activists after an alliance of regional parties gained victory in a local election. The District Council election was the first democratic exercise since Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government last year revoked the special status of the Muslim-majority region however, it has been marred with controversy after New Delhi cracked down on the opposition and rounded up hundreds of people to preempt protests against India’s fascism. The arrests include separatist leaders and members of the Jamaat-i-Islami group. The detentions undermine the voice of the

India kills 1, injures 3 civilians in unprovoked shelling across LOC

The Inter-Services Public Relations confirmed that one civilian was martyred and three civilians were badly injured after unprovoked shelling from the Indian side across the Line of Control (LOC). The Indian Army has resorted to unprovoked ceasefire violations in the Rakhchikri and Khanjar sectors along the LoC, regularly targetting civilians with rockets and mortars. “One citizen embraced shahadat; three civilians, including two women, got injured,” added the ISPR. “Pakistan Army responded effectively targeting Indian Army posts.” Analysts believe that such ceasefire violations reflect Modi’s fascism and are proof that India does not care for innocent civilian lives.

Amnesty International halts operations in India

Amnesty International halted its operations across India after its bank accounts were frozen in what it called a government “witch-hunt” against rights groups. NGOs have alleged harassment from Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Hindu nationalist administration for highlighting rights abuses, including in India-occupied Kashmir (IoK). Amnesty International said that it came to know on September 10 that its Indian bank accounts were frozen, forcing it to let go of staff and pause all ongoing campaign and research work. “This is the latest in the incessant witch-hunt of human rights organisations by the Government of India over unfounded and motivated allegations,” the
