‘No power can dictate India': Jagdeep Dhankhar's bold message amid Donald Trump claiming credit for India-Pak ceasefire
Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar boldly asserted that no power on the planet 'can dictate India on how to handle its affairs', and that all the country's decisions are taken by its leadership. Dhankhar made the remarks while addressing the officer trainees of the Indian Defence Estates Service (IDES) 2024 batch at the Vice-President's Enclave, on Friday, July 19. The Indian Vice President's comments come amid the mounting pressure from the Opposition for answers following US President Donald Trump's claims of brokering a "ceasefire" in the recent India and Pakistan conflict. 'Don't be guided by narratives outside. All decisions in this country, a sovereign nation, are taken by its leadership. There is no power on the planet to dictate to India how to handle its affairs,' the vice president said, according to ANI. The POTUS has repeatedly claimed that he played a key role in negotiating a ceasefire between the two arch enemies – India and Pakistan – on May 10, and even tying it to a trade deal offered to both the neighbours by him. 'We stopped a lot of fights, very, very big one was India and Pakistan. We stopped that over trade," Trump had told Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu while meeting over the Israel-Hamas conflict. India, however, has pushed back, firmly stating that the decision to de-escalate came through direct military-level talks— between India and Pakistan's Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs)—with no foreign involvement. Adding to his series of claims, Trump also claimed earlier this week that five fighter jets were shot down during the conflict between India and Pakistan in May, without explicitly mentioning whose jets were downed. Stating that Operation Sindoor — as part of which India retaliated to Pakistan's attack in Pahalgam on April 22 — 'is not over,' Dhankhar claimed that 'there will be challenges' to create divisiveness. 'There will be challenges. Challenges will be to create divisiveness. For example, we have seen global conflagrations -- two of them in particular, you know them. These have become open-ended. Look at the devastation of property, human lives, and their misery. And look at our calibration. We taught a lesson -- taught it well. We chose Bahawalpur and Muridke, and then brought it to a temporary conclusion. 'Operation Sindoor' is not over -- it continues,' said the Vice President.

Congress, other parties criticizing new Waqf law want to keep Muslims as vote bank: Kiren Rijiju
Minority Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju accuses Congress and other parties of exploiting Muslims as a vote bank by opposing the Waqf (Amendment) Act. He defends the Act, emphasizing its aim to empower the Muslim community and ensure proper management of Waqf properties for their welfare. Rijiju asserts the government's commitment to justice for all, dismissing claims of unconstitutionality. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Minority Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju has alleged that the basic purpose of the Congress and some other parties criticizing the Waqf (Amendment) Act is to keep Muslims as their vote bank, and asserted that the Modi government believes in "appeasement to none, justice to all".With the Supreme Court in May reserving interim orders on three key issues after hearing both sides in the Waqf case, Rijiju said he will not make any preemptive statement right now with regard to the matter which is pending in the apex court."But let us make one thing very clear. The job of Parliament is to make laws. The Supreme Court can definitely interpret it in the right way," Rijiju told PTI Videos in an interview."We are very confident that whatever we have done is as per law and as per the provisions and spirit of the Constitution. I am very confident that the role of Parliament will not be taken away," he AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi 's criticism of the new Waqf law, Rijiju said he doesn't want to criticize Owaisi for his opposition to the Waqf (Amendment) Act because he made the remarks against the legislation out of compulsion."The main problem is what I tell you. Some of these leaders, including the Congress party, have treated the Muslims as a vote bank. When you start taking and making a community as a vote bank, then you become irrational."Then you put them into one bracket, that good or bad doesn't matter, they will all be rhetorical," the minister those who criticized the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, are only trying to keep the Muslims poor and ensure that they remain as their vote bank."Our thinking is opposite to that. Ours is appeasement to none, justice to all," Rijiju are many within the Muslim community, lots of groups, women, children and backward communities who have not gotten any benefit out of the Waqf properties, the minister told PTI on Friday."So, India's Waqf properties you know very well are the highest number of Waqf properties in the world. More than 9,70,000 Waqf properties are there which must be put into use for the purpose for which those properties were created," Rijiju pointed out that under the provisions of the Waqf (Amendment) Act, "we are to handle through the mutawallis and the waqf boards proper management for the welfare of the Muslim community, especially the poor.""These (Congress and some other leaders) people know that if the Muslim community becomes better, prosperous then they will be more educated, have more understanding and they will not be the main vote bank for anybody," Rijiju said."So, the basic purpose of Congress and some of the other leaders criticizing the Waqf (Amendment) Bill is to make Muslims as their vote bank and to keep them poor all the time," he said."Otherwise, tell me one reason why they should oppose the Waqf (Amendment) Bill? On a rational basis, they cannot," he the Collector being given more powers under the new law, Rijiju said, "We are making the rules, now it's in the final stage. There is no final authority to any officer. It is only responsibility being given to certain officers. If there are disputes between the government lands and the private, the collector has to decide, but the appeal has to be made to an officer which is higher than the collector. Otherwise, what is the job of the collectors? Collectors are there for revenue purposes primarily.""So, if you don't trust collectors, then who do you trust?" he its observation on the presumption of constitutionality in favour of the law, the Supreme Court in May reserved interim orders on three key issues after hearing both sides in the waqf Centre has strongly defended the Act, saying waqf by its very nature was a secular concept and can't be stayed given the presumption of constitutionality in its though waqf was an Islamic concept, it was not an essential part of Waqf (Amendment) Act was passed by Parliament in April and subsequently came into force through a government the BJP-led NDA had rallied in support of the Bill, the opposition INDIA bloc united in opposing Muslim bodies and opposition MPs had moved the Supreme Court against the law, which the ruling alliance has described as a force for transparency and empowerment of backward Muslims and women from the community. The Opposition has slammed it as unconstitutional and claimed that it infringes on the rights of Muslims.

Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah, Dy CM Shivakumar Offer Ritual To Kabini In Show Of Unity
Last Updated: Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah and Deputy CM D K Shivakumar offered 'baagina' to the Kabini River, showing unity amid discord rumors. Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and his deputy D K Shivakumar on Sunday offered ' baagina ' (a traditional ritual offering) to the Kabini River, a tributary of the Cauvery, in a symbolic show of unity amid rumours of discord between the two Congress leaders. As per the video shared by Kannada daily, Prajavani, the two leaders were seen offering the ritual as a gesture of thanksgiving during the auspicious 'Kanya lagna' at 11.17 am on Sunday morning. ಎಚ್.ಡಿ.ಕೋಟೆ (ಮೈಸೂರು ಜಿಲ್ಲೆ): ತಾಲ್ಲೂಕಿನ ಬೀಚನಹಳ್ಳಿಯ ಕಬಿನಿ ಜಲಾಶಯಕ್ಕೆ ಭಾನುವಾರ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿ ಸಿದ್ದರಾಮಯ್ಯ ಮತ್ತು ಉಪ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿ ಡಿ.ಕೆ.ಶಿವಕುಮಾರ್ ಬಾಗಿನ ಅರ್ಪಿಸಿದರು #siddaramaiah #kabini — Prajavani (@prajavani) July 20, 2025 'By offering baagina, we have offered pooja to Kapila river. It filled up early this year. The river evolves in Wayanad in Kerala and it joins Cauvery river near T Narsipura taluk. Every year Kabini reservoir fills and we offer Bagina to it each time," the Chief Minister said as quoted by Deccan Herald. The two leaders appeared together a day after a political controversy erupted over an alleged snub to Shivakumar by Siddaramaiah during the ' sadhana samavesha', a Congress event held in Mysuru on Saturday, attended by party president Mallikarjun Kharge. While addressing the gathering, Siddaramaiah omitted Shivakumar's name—an omission that prompted criticism and sparked speculation. When a Congress leader reminded Siddaramaiah to mention his deputy, the Chief Minister responded that 'protocol required acknowledging only those present on the dais." Notably, Shivakumar was present at the event with other senior leaders. However, after delivering his address, he cited an emergency and left for Bengaluru. Meanwhile, the BJP seized the moment, "terming it an insult" to Shivakumar and hinting at a 'rift within the Congress leadership." The incident came amid ongoing tensions within the Karnataka government over the CM post, as the Opposition BJP continues to claim that Shivakumar could replace Siddaramaiah. The Congress leadership has ruled out any plans to replace Siddaramaiah, who has also dismissed rumours about a possible exit. Meanwhile, Deputy CM DK Shivakumar publicly expressed his support for the Chief Minister. Despite such gestures and public statements, signs of friction between the two have occasionally surfaced during public events. The root of the tension dates back to the Congress's decisive victory in the 2023 assembly elections. Shivakumar, credited for his role in securing the win, was seen as a strong contender for the Chief Minister's post. After internal deliberations, the party leadership persuaded him to take on the roles of Deputy Chief Minister and state Congress president. view comments First Published: July 20, 2025, 16:17 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
