MoS Margherita says India, South Africa relations based on mutual trust
Last Updated: Johannesburg, Jul 26 (PTI) 'Relations between India and South Africa are based on shared history, mutual trust and goodwill," said Union Minister of State for External Affairs Pabitra Margherita in South Africa on Saturday. 'India's engagement with Africa, including South Africa, is guided by the principles of Prime Minister Modi. Our engagement with Africa is not transitional; it is transformational," he said while addressing a gathering of Assamese expatriates and Indian-origin South Africans here. Margherita said that India regards its diaspora as one of its greatest assets while seeking their support 'to strengthen the India-South Africa relationships." He urged the diaspora to continue to launch new ventures, initiate joint projects, create more jobs and explore new markets together in India, South Africa and beyond. Margherita wrapped up his 10-day visit to three southern African countries–Eswatini, Lesotho and South Africa–on Saturday and left for Dubai. Earlier this week, Margherita participated in the 4th meeting of the G20 Development Working Group, held in the iconic Kruger National Park, hosted by South Africa, which currently holds the G20 Presidency.

Agencies should adopt security-first approach, ensure habitual alertness: Union Minister Amit Shah
NEW DELHI: Asserting the government has the political will to have 'zero tolerance against terrorism', which was reaffirmed remarkably through 'Operation Sindoor'. Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday asked the agencies to follow a security-first approach, ensure habitual alertness, and coordination an integral part of their working methodology. Speaking at the two-day 'National Security Strategy Conference – 2025' organised by the Intelligence Bureau, the Home Minister said, 'India is one of the fastest emerging economies, and with that, the challenges before the country are also increasing. We must stay more vigilant and tackle problems with heightened awareness.' Highlighting the importance of the Conference, Shah said, the deliberations at the event enable senior officers to guide young officers and familiarise them with challenges by showing them the path in finding solutions. 'Police forces of all states and central investigative agencies should move forward with the goal of becoming the best in the world,' he exhorted, while adding that to address the challenges coming before the nation, a reliable ecosystem for real-time data sharing must be established.
