BJP MP Nishikant Dubey shares document alleging Indira Gandhi govt took Britain's help to carry out Operation Blue Star
Sharing a document on X, Dubey claimed that planning for the military operation began six months in advance. He alleged, 'In 1984, Indira Gandhi attacked the Golden Temple in collaboration with Britain. British army officers were present in Amritsar at that time. For Congress, Sikh community is just a toy. The agreement to finally give Kartarpur Sahib to Pakistan was signed by Sardar Swaran Singh in 1960.'
'Giani Zail Singh was made President during the 1984 attack on the Golden Temple and killing of innocent devotees. To hide the 1984 massacre of Sikhs and to save senior leaders HKL Bhagat, Jagdish Tytler, Sajjan Kumar, Manmohan Singh was made a puppet Prime Minister in 2004. The story of selling the country and surrendering to foreigners continues,' he added.
What does the document say?
Stamped 'TOP SECRET AND PERSONAL', the letter dated February 23, 1984, is titled 'Sikh Community' and is shown to be from B J P Fall, private secretary, Foreign and Commonwealth Office, London SWIA 2AH. It was addressed to Hugh Taylor Esq, private secretary to the home secretary under the Home Office.
It read: 'The Home Secretary will have seen press reports of communal violence in the Punjab. The Foreign Secretary wishes him to be made aware of some background which could increase the possibility of repercussions among the Sikh communities in this country.'
Stating that the Indian authorities sought British advice over a plan to remove Sikh extremists from the Golden Temple, the letter said, 'The Foreign Secretary decided to respond favourably to the Indian request and, with the Prime Minister's agreement, an SAD officer has visited India and drawn up a plan which has been approved by Mrs Gandhi. The Foreign Secretary believes that the Indian Government may put the plan into operation shortly.'

Warning that such an operation by Indian authorities at the Golden Temple could worsen the communal violence in Punjab, the letter said, 'It might also, therefore, increase tension in the Indian community here, particularly if knowledge of the SAS involvement were to become public. We have impressed upon the Indians the need for security; knowledge of the SAS officer's visit and of his plan has been tightly held both in India and in London.'
'The Foreign Secretary would be grateful if the contents of this letter could be very strictly limited to those who need to consider the possible domestic implications. I am copying this letter to Robin Butler (No 10), Richard Mottram (MOD) and Richard Hatfield (Cabinet Office),' it concluded.

Edappadi K Palaniswami kicks off AIADMK campaign for 2026 polls
COIMBATORE: AIADMK general secretary and leader of opposition Edappadi K Palaniswami on Monday kick-started his campaign for the 2026 Assembly election from Coimbatore by challenging the DMK's main criticism of his party's alliance with the BJP. Pointing to the DMK's past alliances with the BJP (in 1999 and 2001), he asked how the national party was considered good when it suited the DMK and communal when AIADMK made an alliance with it and said the alliance was forged to defeat the enemy. Beginning his campaign — 'Let's Protect the People, Let's Save Tamil Nadu' — well ahead of his rivals after offering prayers at the Vanabadrakali Amman temple at Mettupalayam, he took part in a roadshow on the Mettupalayam to Ooty road. Then he addressed a public meeting alongside BJP state president Nainar Nagenthiran, Minister of State for Information Broadcasting L Murugan, and former AIADMK minister SP Velumani, at Mettupalayam bus stand. 'If you (DMK) make an alliance with the BJP, then it would be considered a good party. However, DMK is accusing the BJP of being a communal party after the AIADMK made an alliance. Except for this, CM MK Stalin could not level any other charge against the AIADMK-BJP-led alliance. DMK cadres were central ministers during the BJP-led central government for five years,' he said. 'Hereafter, Stalin cannot cheat the people of Tamil Nadu,' EPS said.

China denies backing Pakistan in Op Sindoor, urges strengthening ties with India
China on Monday sought to downplay the Indian Army's Deputy Chief Lt Gen Rahul R Singh's assertion that Beijing provided active military support to Pakistan during Operation Sindoor, using the conflict as a 'live lab' to test various weapon systems."I am not familiar with the specifics you mentioned. Lworldet me say that China and Pakistan are close neighbours, enjoying traditional friendship. Defence and security cooperation is part of the normal cooperation between the two countries and does not target any third party," Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said at a media briefing here while responding to a question on Gen. Singh's the same time, Mao said the India-China relationship is in a 'critical moment of improvement and development' and Beijing would like to promote steady growth of bilateral ties with New Delhi. Mao declined to answer a question about reports from Paris stating that China has deployed its embassies to spread doubts about the performance of French-made Rafale jets following the India-Pakistan conflict, saying 'I am not familiar with what you mentioned'.Addressing a seminar in Delhi last week, Gen. Singh said while Pakistan was the "front face", with China extending all possible support to its all-weather ally, Turkiye was also playing a major role by supplying military hardware to Islamabad, adding that India was actually dealing with at least three adversaries during the May 7-10 suggested that China use its satellites to monitor Indian military deployments as the Pakistani military was getting live inputs on it during the DGMO (Director General of Military Operations)-level phone highlighting China-Pakistan's all-weather ties, Mao said India and Pakistan are and will always be each other's neighbours. They are important neighbours of China as well, she said."Over the past weeks and months, China has closely followed the developments between India and Pakistan, actively promoted talks for peace, and worked to maintain regional peace and stability. China welcomes and supports India and Pakistan in properly settling differences and seeking fundamental solutions through dialogue and consultation. China stands ready to continue playing a constructive role for this end', she pointed out that China's active support in providing live inputs to Pakistan during the conflict was contrary to her assertion that the close ties do not target any third party, Mao said, "I am not sure how that allegation came about. Different people may have different perspectives'.'What I can say is, China-Pakistan relations do not target any third party. This is China's policy. On India-Pakistan relations, we support the two sides in properly addressing differences through dialogue and consultation and jointly keeping the region peaceful and stable'.When asked about Beijing's operational backing to Pakistan during the current normalisation process with India, Mao said Beijing wants steady growth of ties with New China-India relations are at a crucial stage of improvement and development.

HC reserves orders on 9 writs seeking judicial probe into Group-1 exams
Hyderabad: The Telangana High Court single bench of Justice Namavarapu Rajeshwar Rao on Monday 'reserved orders' on nine writs filed by unsuccessful candidates, who were unable to get a rank in the Group-1 Main exam, seeking a direction to order a judicial probe into the entire selection process. The judge heard nine writs filed by Parmesh Matta and others. Vidya Sagar, KS Murthy and Rachna, senior counsels argued for the petitioners and sought judicial intervention into the action of the TGPSC in conducting the most coveted Group-1 competitive examination in the most haphazard manner, alleging massive illegalities and in sheer violation of rules. Vidya Sagar contended that the TGPSC had not conducted the exam in a fair and transparent manner because, any constitutional body, which holds a competitive exam, first and foremost, notifies each instruction by way of a Gazette.. unless this process is done, a statutory body cannot hold an exam , but here in this case, the TGPSC didn't speak about three rounds of evaluation, moderation method, re-evaluation, which itself speaks about the haphazard manner of conducting the exam. Rachna, in the last hearing, contended that the TGPSC had informed the court it had grossly erred in issuing two hall-ticket numbers to candidates. This had created confusion among the candidates, who got selected in the Preliminary. Moreover, unqualified evaluators had corrected the answer papers of the candidates, who wrote the exam in 'Telugu medium' because of which there is a huge variation in the pass percentage between the candidates, who appeared in English and Telugu--English medium 30% and Telugu medium 18%. This action of TGPSC was to demean the Telugu candidates. The biometrics system was not properly used… the contention of the TGPSC that all CCTV cameras installed at the exam centres had a centralised surveillance system was a suspecting aspect. Criminal petition filed by CM seeking quash of proceedings in pvt complaint; reserved for orders The HC bench of Justice Kunuru Lakshman on Monday 'reserved orders' on the criminal petition filed by CM A Revanth Reddy, seeking quash of proceedings registered before the Principal Special Judicial First Class Magistrate for Excise Cases, Hyderabad, which emanated from a private complaint filed by Kasam Venkateswarlu, State general secretary, BJP from Nalgonda. Reddy at a public meeting (election campaign-2024) 'Jana Jatara Sabha' on May 5 at Prakasam Stadium, Kothagudem, stated that if the BJP comes to power, it will scrap the SC, ST and BC reservations. During the hearing, T Niranjan Reddy, senior counsel appearing for CM, had vehemently opposed contentions of counsel for the petitioner, contending the complaint filed before the lower court was not maintainable and should be dismissed; Venkateshwarulu was not eligible to file the complaint on ground BJP, being a national party, had not given its consent. The counsel for the petitioner had not furnished any document/ letter received from the top BJP brass, giving consent. There is no official communique/no authorisation from the BJP high command directing Venkateshwarlu to file the complaint. Reddy's speech was purely political; political speeches/ statements cannot be construed as defamatory because delivering a political speech is right to freedom under Article 19, which gives freedom of speech to a citizen. The judge reserved orders while hearing the petition filed by CM seeking quash of proceedings in CC 312/2024 U/s. 499 IPC and Section 125 of the Representation of the People Act, before the PSJFCM for Excise Cases. *Notice issued to State: PIL to protect 2-acre govt land in Hyderguda from encroachment The HC division bench of Acting CJ Sujoy Paul & Justice Renuka Yara on Monday issued notices to the Principal Secretary (revenue), Ranga Reddy district collector, GHMC commissioner, RDO and tahsildar Rajenderanagar, directing them to respond on encroachment of two acres of government land in survey no 7 of Upperpally, Hyderguda, Rajendranagar mandal, RR district and file counters within two weeks. During the hearing, counsel for the petitioner P Sridhar Reddy, president, Erraboda Weaker Section Colony Welfare Association, Rajendranagar, had informed, despite his repeated representations to the collector apprising him of encroachment and constructions on government land, there was no response. He further contended miscreants were raising huge sheds on the land with a motive of knocking away the land illegally. The petitioner further said there was another attempt of encroaching government land of 1,200 square yards in the same survey no by creating forged and fabricated documents. The miscreants had constructed a compound wall with a room, which was also complained to the Revenue officials. All pleadings of the petitioner and others had gone in vain. The judge heard PIL filed by the Erraboda Weaker Section Colony Welfare Association, represented by its president P Sridhar Reddy, Rajendranagar mandal, seeking directions to the Principal Secretary (Revenue), RR collector, RDO and tahsildar, Rajendranagar, and GHMC commissioner to protect the government land from encroachment. Hearing in the case was adjourned by two weeks directing the government to file counter.
