Bunyamum Marsoos rally to be held today
Speaking at the seminar, leaders of various political and Kashmiri parties said that Pakistan has highlighted the Kashmir issue at the international forum. The international community must play its role in stopping Indian atrocities in Jammu and Kashmir. Kashmir is the jugular vein of Pakistan. The struggle and mission of martyred Burhan Muzaffar Wani for the freedom of Kashmir will continue.
They announced that 'Baniyan-e-Marsous' rally will be held on Tuesday (today) from the Arts Council to the Karachi Press Club in memory of Burhan Wani and to express solidarity with the Pakistan armed forces. The rally would give a clear message to the world that 'Kashmir will become Pakistan'.
The speakers said, India falsely blamed Pakistan for the Pahalgam incident and tried to impose war, which the Pakistan Army foiled and destroyed India's defence capabilities. Modi is now willing to negotiate with Pakistan.

High court adjourns May 9 bail hearing
The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Tuesday accepted the prosecution's request for granting an opportunity for submitting a reply regarding bail pleas filed by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Ijaz Chaudhry in four cases registered against him over the May 9 riots. The court adjourned the hearing of the bail applications till Thursday. An LHC division bench headed by Justice Syed Shahbaz Ali Rizvi heard the bail applications. The prosecution sought time for submitting the reply before the court. Petitioner Ijaz Chaudhry contended his bail application that he had nothing to do with the allegations levelled in the first information reports (FIRs). He alleged that he had been implicated in forged and frivolous cases that were politically motivated. He stated that nothing was available on record to establish his nexus with the offences portrayed in the FIRs. He requested the court to grant him bail.

Assembly ruckus hits citizens' right to information: speaker
Punjab Assembly Speaker Malik Muhammad Ahmad Khan has said that the uproar by the opposition and disorder during the budget session was an attack on the public's right to know how much money was being allocated for them. Addressing the students of a university at Old Punjab Assembly Hall, he said books were always torn and thrown during budget speeches and there had been attempts to attack the speaker. Should such conduct not come to an end now? he asked. He shared that during the budget session, the opposition had submitted 37 applications, 12 of which were merely meant to create noise and disruption. He expressed his willingness to play a role in facilitating meaningful dialogue between the government and the opposition, adding that decisions based on justice and in line with the Constitution would guarantee the country's stability. He said Article 63(2) of the Constitution clearly states that if a member violates the Constitution, the speaker has the authority to initiate action. He stated that when members of the assembly make obscene gestures, use abusive language, or harass women, it becomes a constitutional duty of the speaker to take action against them. He said 22 members of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had requested National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq to send a reference against former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, but the allegations had been declared baseless. He said the disqualification of Nawaz Sharif was the worst judgment in the history of judiciary. He emphasised that he was not against any political party but the protection of parliamentary values remained his foremost priority. The Punjab Assembly speaker said he had provided representation to the opposition in standing committees, whereas former speaker Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi had not done so.

X says India ordered block on 2,000 accounts, including Reuters News
Listen to article Social media platform X said on Tuesday that the Indian government ordered it to block more than 2,000 accounts last week, including two belonging to Reuters News. The move, described by X as part of "ongoing press censorship" in India, has drawn widespread attention and concern. The Reuters accounts, @Reuters and @ReutersWorld, were withheld from users in India late Saturday, with a message citing a legal demand. While access to the accounts was restored on Sunday night, the status of the remaining blocked accounts remains unclear. X claimed that the blocking directive was issued on July 3, 2025, under Section 69A of India's Information Technology Act. The section allows the government to block online content in the interest of national security and sovereignty. Non-compliance, X said, would have exposed the company to criminal liability. Also read: Reuters account restored in India after X block over legal request 'We are deeply concerned about ongoing press censorship in India due to these blocking orders,' the company stated. 'X is exploring all legal options available.' Reuters has not been informed of the specific content that prompted the blocking request. A Reuters spokesperson confirmed over the weekend that the agency was working with X to resolve the issue. As of Tuesday, Reuters declined further comment. India's Press Information Bureau had earlier denied that any government agency ordered the blocking of Reuters accounts. In a statement, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology said no fresh blocking order had been issued on July 3. The ministry also said the government did not intend to block Reuters and had asked X to restore access after public outcry.

X confirmed that the Indian government later requested restoration of the Reuters accounts, which collectively reach over 25 million followers worldwide. This is not the first time X has clashed with Indian authorities. In March, the company filed a lawsuit against the federal government over a new portal that X claims expands content takedown powers to "countless" officials. That legal case is ongoing. India has pushed back, saying X misrepresented the portal by labelling it a "censorship portal," and that the tool is intended solely for notifying tech companies about harmful content online.
