"Public has understood that Hindi hatred is bigger than Marathi love": Shiv Sena Manisha Kayande
'Naturally, there will be a credit war. Both Thackerays are engaged in it, but what the public has understood is that Hindi hatred is bigger than Marathi love. Isn't Hindi our Indian language?... No one ever said we don't have to learn English... This hypocrisy was visible somewhere, and that was also visible in this, and the hatred towards Hindi, which was coming out unnecessarily. We love our mother tongue, Marathi... No one needs to teach us what Marathi love is...' Kayande told ANI.
Meanwhile, Shiv Sena (UBT) Chief Uddhav Thackeray celebrated the withdrawal of the three-language policy in the state and stated that they had punched Marathi haters, and the unity in the state should remain as it is.
He further stated that a new committee led by Narendra Jadhav would report on the decision, further stating that the government had appointed financial experts for the decision in the education sector.
'We have punched Marathi haters; this unity should remain as it is. We appreciate the political parties which came together with us despite different stands. Temporarily, they (the Government) have cancelled the GR. If they hadn't cancelled, they would have seen the protest on 5th July. Many leaders from Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena and Ajit Pawar's NCP are going to join us. A new committee led by Dr Narendra Jadhav will report on this. The government has appointed financial experts for the education sector's decision. We will stage a victory rally on 5th July,' Thackeray said, speaking to reporters here.
Party MP Sanjay Raut lashed out at the BJP for making false claims of former Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray accepting the Mashelkar committee's report on the three-language policy.
Addressing the media, Raut stated that lying was the BJP's 'national policy.', further challenging the BJP that if Thackeray had submitted the Mashelkar committee report, it should have been made public.
'Lying is the BJP's national policy. These people are working with this policy in Maharashtra. If Uddhav Thackeray had submitted a report on the Mashelkar committee, it should be made public. A committee report has been released and placed in the cabinet. Can't this be discussed? You forcefully discussed Hindi with the cabinet -- you did it because it's a national policy. If any national policy comes before the state, then discussing it is very important. Devendra Fadnavis has become the chief minister three times--does he not have that much knowledge?' Raut said, addressing a press conference. (ANI)

Nayara Energy moves Delhi HC against Microsoft for suspending key services
Indian oil refining and marketing company, Nayara Energy, which is backed by Russian investment, has taken legal action against Microsoft. The company said the US-based tech firm had abruptly and unilaterally suspended essential services without any prior warning. "Microsoft is currently restricting Nayara Energy's access to its own data, proprietary tools, and products --despite these being acquired under fully paid-up licences," stated Nayara. Petition filed in Delhi HC The company has filed a petition in the Delhi High Court. It is seeking an interim injunction and immediate restoration of services to protect its rights and ensure continued access to important digital systems. According to Nayara, Microsoft did not discuss or notify the company before cutting off services. "This action has been taken unilaterally, without prior notice, consultation or recourse, and under the guise of compliance," the statement added. Sanctions lead to disruptions Nayara, which purchases large volumes of Russian oil, was recently sanctioned by the European Union. The company is mostly owned by Russian entities, including oil giant Rosneft. Although the sanctions are from the EU, Nayara claims that Microsoft -- a US-based firm -- is not legally required to enforce them under American or Indian law. Despite this, sources said Microsoft suspended Nayara's services last Tuesday. Since then, email accounts and Teams access for Nayara employees have been unavailable. Microsoft has not commented on the matter. Following the sanctions, at least two ships avoided loading refined products from Nayara's Vadinar facility. One crude tanker carrying Russian Urals was also diverted. In addition, Nayara's CEO resigned and was replaced by Sergey Denisov. Key role in India's energy sector Nayara Energy highlighted its important role in India's fuel economy. The company contributes around 8 per cent of the country's refining capacity and 7 per cent of its petrol pump network. It is also developing about 8 per cent of India's polypropylene capacity. While facing these challenges, Nayara said it remains committed to maintaining uninterrupted supply across India. Focus on domestic market and growth Operating under the motto 'In India, for India', Nayara mainly serves the domestic market through retail outlets, institutional sales, and partnerships with other oil marketing companies. The company is also investing in petrochemicals and clean energy, generating thousands of jobs. Nayara added that it complies fully with Indian regulations and continues to work closely with Indian authorities to maintain transparency and accountability.

Speaking about the social initiatives, Mr. Mohit Kamboj, Founder of Mohit Kamboj Bharatiya Foundation, said, 'True nation-building begins when every citizen feels seen, respected, and empowered, regardless of background, identity, or circumstance. These initiatives move us beyond short-term aid toward lasting pathways for inclusion, dignified livelihoods, and cultural pride. By enabling the transgender community to gain skills and earn meaningful work, honouring the unclaimed deceased with respectful last rites, and restoring our ancient temples so heritage can inspire future generations, we are embedding dignity, equality, and cultural confidence at the heart of India's progress.'

'When Will We Take PoK Back': Cong MP Gaurav Gogoi Responds To Rajnath Singh On Pahalgam, Op Sindoor
A stormy faceoff between Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi shook the Lok Sabha during the debate on Operation Sindoor. Gogoi asked what every Indian is wondering: Why did India pause its military strikes when Pakistan was begging for a ceasefire? Was this victory or surrender? He grilled the government for failing to explain how terrorists crossed into Pahalgam and killed 26 civilians. Rajnath started the debate by saying India paused the operation only after achieving its strategic goals, and warned that any future provocation would trigger a fresh offensive. He invoked Krishna and the Sudarshan Chakra, declaring that India has changed the rules of engagement. But Gogoi kept pressing: How many jets were lost? Why no push for PoK?#rajnathsingh #gauravgogoi #operationsindoor #pahalgamattack #modivscongress #ceasefiredebate #loksabhaclashes #pok #surgicalstrike #rahulgandhi #modidoctrine #parliamentfaceoff #nationalsecurity #indianpolitics #trendingindia #toi #toibharat #bharat #trending #breakingnews #indianews Read More
