SC taught lesson to those who engage in puerile talk: PM Modi

NEW DELHI: PM Narendra Modi on Tuesday termed the embarrassment caused to Rahul Gandhi by the Supreme Court 's rebuke a slap in the face of those who engage in puerile talk about the country's borders and the armed forces, reports Akhilesh Singh. "People make childish and unsubstantiated comments about Indian territory and security, and the court has served him a lesson," PM Modi is learnt to have remarked at the meeting of the NDA parliamentary party a day after SC came down hard on the leader of opposition in Lok Sabha for his statement about Indian soldiers having been bashed up by the Chinese during the 2020 stand off in Galwan. He, however, did not mention Rahul by name.

Amit Shah now India's longest-serving home minister

NEW DELHI: Amit Shah on Tuesday reached the career milestone of becoming the longest-serving home minister, drawing compliments from PM Narendra Modi for an even-studded spell marked by landmark decisions like abolition of special status of J&K, enactment of Citizenship (Amendment) Act, promulgation of Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita and a hammer blow to Maoist insurgency. Amit Shah, who has been home minister for 2,258 days, has overtaken BJP stalwart L K Advani, who had a run of 2,256 days in the politically crucial position. Govind Ballabh Pant, a Congess giant and former UP CM, had the third longest tenure as home minister. I nterestingly, Shah achieved the distinction on the the 6th anniversary of the scrapping of the special status for J&K - one of the foundational objectives of BJP. While addressing a meeting of NDA parliamentary group, the PM congratulated Shah, whose tenure as BJP chief was also impressive. Modi saying, "It is just the beginning", sparked curiosity among MPs. Parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju, however, clarified that Modi's reference was to BJP-led NDA's ongoing success. In his speech, Shah spoke about Operation Sindoor, calling it a symbol of India's resolute political will and firm response to attacks. Shiv Sena MP Naresh Mhaske said Modi commended Shah for uniting NDA partners. Shah, who served as Gujarat home minister under Modi's CM-ship, became the country's home minister on May 30 2019 and is serving. Apart from the home ministry, he is also the country's first cooperation minister.

SC remarks on Rahul Gandhi 'extraordinary, unwarranted': Opposition

NEW DELHI: The opposition INDIA bloc on Tuesday termed as "unwarranted" Supreme Court 's remarks on Rahul Gandhi , asserting that they encroach on the democratic rights of political parties, which have a responsibility to speak on issues of national interest. Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said the Supreme Court cannot decide who is a "true Indian", stressing that Rahul holds the Army in the highest regard. A joint statement issued by the bloc said, "All the leaders of the INDIA parties agreed that the sitting judge has made an extraordinary observation, which is unwarranted given the democratic rights of political parties. It is the responsibility of political parties, especially the leader of opposition, to comment on issues of national interest". It added, "When a govt fails so spectacularly to defend our borders, it is every citizen's moral duty to hold it accountable". INDIA bloc discussed the apex court's remarks at the morning meeting of floor leaders in Parliament, which was attended by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi. After RSP MP NK Premachandran raised the issue, questioning SC's remarks, the same was endorsed by John Brittas (CPM), Kanimozhi (DMK), Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar (TMC), Ramgopal Yadav (SP), Arvind Sawant (SS-UBT), Supriya Sule (NCP-SP), Rajkumar Roat (BAP). by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Best Software Categories Undo Best Software Categories Undo Best Software Categories Undo Best Software Categories Undo Best Software Categories Undo Best Software Categories Undo Best Software Categories Undo A decision was then made to issue a joint statement .
