According to sources, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Home Minister Amit Shah, and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar will speak on the issue, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi likely to intervene. In addition, the ruling NDA is expected to field its members from the seven multi-party delegations that travelled to over 30 world capitals to present India's case following Operation Sindoor. Whether the Congress will allow Shashi Tharoor to speak on the matter remains uncertain, as he has been at odds with his party after praising the Modi government's handling of the situation while leading a delegation to the US and other countries.

Budameru disaster due to failure of NDA
Vijayawada: Former MLA and Vijayawada Central Constituency Coordinator Malladi Vishnu alleged Budameru flood disaster in September 2024 was a major failure of the current NDA administration. He said no leader held even a single review meeting before the floods struck and devastated the Vijayawada city and lakhs of people suffered. Vishnu responded to the comments made by P Narayana, the minister for municipal administration and urban development. Narayana alleged that the YSRCP administration was held responsible for the Budameru disaster. During his visit to the city, Narayana on Saturday blamed the YSRCP government. YSRCP leader Malladi Vishnu on Sunday responded to the allegations of minister Narayana. Vishnu said lakhs of people suffered due to Budameru floods. He said despite Rs 500 crore received by Chief Minister's Relief Fund, only minimal aid reached victims, and even the District Collector's office did not respond to public grievances, he alleged. Malladi Vishnu made these comments during the YSRCP meeting titled 'Babu Surety and Fraud Guarantee' held on Sunday in 64th Division of the Central Constituency under the supervision of Division Corporator Yerragorla Tirupatamma. Vishnu said the YSRCP launched a massive campaign against the NDA rule and its failure to deliver Super Six promises made to the people. Malladi Vishnu stated that the campaign has already been taken across three clusters in the Central Constituency and will now extend to all divisions. 'Chandrababu Naidu misled the public with fraudulent promises before the elections and came to power. Now, their leaders have no courage to face the people or explain what they've accomplished,' he said. He said that not a single one of the 'Super Six' schemes promised by Naidu before the elections has been implemented. He said the NDA government has borrowed over Rs 2 lakh crore loans in just one year, yet it's only notable act has been raising pensions to Rs.4,000, Vishnu claimed. He criticised the government for increasing public debt by 15.61 percent in one year, calling it 'unsustainable and irresponsible.'

For years, the 47-year-old operated with impunity, drove around in luxury cars bearing diplomatic plates, and introduced himself as 'Baron of Westarctica'.advertisementHe made 162 trips abroad over a decade and may have links to a Rs 300-crore financial scam, an ongoing probe by the Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force (STF) has revealed.

He declared it a country, gave it a flag, a constitution, and even issued passports. But to this day, no one recognises Sealand as a sovereign consider Liberland, launched in 2015 by Czech politician Vt Jedlika on a disputed strip of land between Croatia and called it a libertarian dreamland, claiming it was terra nullius, land belonging to no one. It got media hype and thousands of would-be "citizens" online. But legally? It's still also the Grand Duchy of Flandrensis, born in 2008 when a Belgian man claimed parts of Antarctica, not to conquer, but to protect.
