    Putin Talks About Trump: A Shocking Election and Concerns for Safety

    Russian President Vladimir Putin recently praised U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, calling him smart and experienced. However, he shared concerns over Trump’s safety, especially after two serious attempts on his life.

    In July, Trump was hurt in a shooting in Pennsylvania. Later, in September, a man faced charges for trying to shoot Trump while he was at a golf course in Florida. Speaking in Kazakhstan after a meeting, Putin expressed his disbelief about how the U.S. election turned out. He criticized the harsh ways some people fought against Trump during the campaign, including the assassination attempts.

    Putin mentioned he felt bad for Trump’s family, who faced a lot of unfair criticism from opponents. He said such behavior was shocking, stating even criminals in Russia wouldn’t go that far.

    Also, Putin commented on the Biden administration’s support for Ukraine in the war, suggesting it might either help or hurt Trump’s situation. But he was hopeful that Trump would find a way to handle things, adding that Moscow is open to talking.

  • India Tests K-4 Missile from New Submarine, Strengthening Defense

    India Tests K-4 Missile from New Submarine, Strengthening Defense

    India’s Awesome Missile Test from New Submarine.In an exciting update, India tested its new K-4 missile from the INS Arighaat submarine on Wednesday. This special submarine can carry nuclear missiles and has a range of 3,500 kilometers! This powerful test shows that India’s defenses are stronger, especially with China having a bigger navy.

    The K-4 missile was launched near Visakhapatnam in the Bay of Bengal. Before this, the K-4 had only been tested from platforms above water. India is now one of only six countries with submarines that can launch nuclear missiles, joining the ranks of the US, Russia, China, France, and the UK.

    The INS Arighaat, India’s second nuclear-powered submarine, joined the navy earlier this year. Its older sister, INS Arihant, can only carry shorter-range K-15 missiles, which can hit targets only 750 kilometers away. With K-4 missiles, INS Arighaat can strike much farther away, which helps India’s military strategy.

    India’s Nuclear Strength Explained Simply

    India’s nuclear power comes from three parts: missiles on land, planes in the air, and submarines in the sea. Right now, the sea part isn’t as strong, but with the new K-4 missiles, that’s about to change!

    India has many good land missiles, like Prithvi and Agni, and aircraft like Sukhoi-30 and Rafale that can drop nuclear bombs. But having strong submarines is important too because they are harder for enemies to find.

    These submarines play a key role in India’s ability to strike back if attacked since they can hide underwater and have a high chance of surviving any surprise attack. This provides a promise of “Mutual Assured Destruction” or MAD, which keeps nuclear risks in check.

    India is also building more submarines. The next one, called INS Aridhaman, will be even bigger and will carry more K-4 missiles. There are plans for submarines that can carry even more powerful missiles in the future.

    What About Other Countries?

    China has more advanced submarines that can travel even farther, making it a tough competitor for India. They have six submarines with long-range missiles called JL-3. The US has even more submarines with advanced abilities compared to India.

    As India builds and tests new submarines and missiles, it hopes to improve its strength against China’s expanding navy

  • Akhilesh Yadav’s Powerful Response to Sambhal Violence

    Akhilesh Yadav’s Powerful Response to Sambhal Violence

    Akhilesh Yadav, the leader of the Samajwadi Party, spoke out on Wednesday against the Uttar Pradesh government’s plan to make protesters pay for damages caused during the recent violence in Sambhal. He suggested that the government should also share photos of BJP supporters who were shouting slogans during the incident.

    The violence in Sambhal happened on Sunday, leading to the deaths of four people. It started because of a survey of an old mosque, which some say replaced a Hindu temple.

    Yadav claimed that the BJP has a habit of pressuring officials to win elections and said this incident was staged to distract people. He criticized the BJP for not following the country’s Constitution, accusing them of using unfair methods to gain votes. He said that if EVMs (voting machines) were examined closely, it would show irregularities.

    He also called on the Supreme Court to look into claims that Uttar Pradesh police coerced the families of the violence victims. According to Yadav, police threatened them and made them sign blank papers, which is illegal. He urged the Supreme Court to take action against those responsible.

    So far, police have filed seven FIRs, with four of them from the families of the deceased. They arrested a total of 27 people, including three women and three minors. The police also named SP MP Zia Ur Rehman Barq as someone who allegedly fueled the violence. Barq claimed the police were trying to cover up their mistakes by blaming him.

    He stood firm, saying he would always voice the needs and rights of his people to get them the justice they deserve

    Supreme Court Suggests Petitioners Approach Government for Sanatan Board

    A group called the ‘Sanatan Hindu Sewa Sangh Trust’ asked the Supreme Court to make a special board to protect their religion, ‘sanatan dharm.’ They believe that their community is being attacked by followers of other religions. The court, led by Chief Justice Manmohan, said it couldn’t make this decision because it’s about government policy. The judges advised the petitioners to take their request directly to the government. The court explained that they don’t have the power to create a trust as asked. They closed the petition but allowed the group to approach the government for help.

  • Rahul Gandhi Urges Arrest of Gautam Adani Amid Serious Allegations

    Rahul Gandhi Urges Arrest of Gautam Adani Amid Serious Allegations

    Congress leader Rahul Gandhi recently spoke about businessman Gautam Adani, saying he should be arrested. Gandhi pointed out that many people in India get arrested for small issues, so it’s strange that Adani, who has serious allegations against him, remains free.

    When reporters asked about Adani’s denial of the charges, Gandhi responded, “Of course, he will deny them. It’s clear he won’t accept the charges.” He mentioned that Adani has been accused of serious crimes, amounting to thousands of crores, in the United States and should be in jail.

    Rahul Gandhi believes that the government is protecting Adani and has called for his arrest multiple times, especially after bribery accusations came to light. Adani’s lawyer, Mukul Rohtagi, defended him by saying there are no clear charges against Adani, and the allegations of bribery are vague and lack specific details.

  • Maharashtra Election Results: BJP’s Victory and CM Uncertainty

    Maharashtra Election Results: BJP’s Victory and CM Uncertainty

    In the recent Maharashtra assembly elections, the BJP won 132 out of 280 seats, making it the biggest party. Its allies, Shiv Sena, led by Eknath Shinde, got 57 seats, and the NCP, led by Ajit Pawar, secured 41 seats. The elections took place on November 20, with results announced on November 23.

    Eknath Shinde, who was the Chief Minister, resigned and is now the caretaker CM until a new government is formed. There is still uncertainty about who will be the Chief Minister from the Mahayuti alliance, which includes BJP, Shiv Sena, and the NCP.

    Ramdas Athawale, a leader from the RPI(A) and a close ally of the BJP, called for the decision about the new Chief Minister to be made quickly. He suggested that Shinde might want to move to the Centre and become a Union minister instead. Athawale supported Devendra Fadnavis, another senior BJP leader, as the next Chief Minister, saying that since the BJP won the most seats, they should get the top job in the state.

    Athawale mentioned that there is some disagreement about who should lead. While the BJP leaders want Fadnavis for Chief Minister, Shiv Sena leaders want Shinde to stay in charge because of his good work over the past two and a half years. Athawale noted that Shinde is not very happy about the possibility of Fadnavis being chosen, but he believes a decision must be made soon.

  • Chinmoy Krishna Das Arrested: A Call for Action to Protect Hindus

    Chinmoy Krishna Das Arrested: A Call for Action to Protect Hindus

    A monk named Chinmoy Krishna Das was arrested recently, which is part of a bigger problem where Islamists have been threatening ISKCON and other Hindu religious groups. Radharaman Das, who speaks for ISKCON, said that for the past three months, there have been many threats and attacks against them, making the situation serious. ISKCON is worried and has asked the Indian government to help protect people in danger and to talk to the Bangladesh government to stop these incidents.

    Chinmoy Krishna Das was taken into custody at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka while he was on his way to Chattogram. A court in Bangladesh refused to give him bail, and he’s now in prison because of charges related to sedition, which means he is accused of trying to go against the government.

    ISKCON has said that their monks in different places in Bangladesh have been receiving threats about being harmed, but the local authorities haven’t helped much even after being informed about these dangers. The Indian National Congress party has also spoken out, urging the Indian government to ensure the safety of minorities in Bangladesh.

  • Pawan Kalyan Calls for Unity After Arrest of ISKCON Priest in Bangladesh

    Pawan Kalyan Calls for Unity After Arrest of ISKCON Priest in Bangladesh

    On Wednesday, Pawan Kalyan, the deputy chief minister of Andhra Pradesh, asked everyone to come together and speak out against the arrest of ISKCON priest Chinmoy Krishna Das in Bangladesh. He urged Muhammad Yunus, the interim leader and Nobel Prize winner of Bangladesh, to take action against what he calls “atrocities on Hindus” in that country.

    “It hurts to see how people are suffering there. When something bad happens in Palestine, lots of people react, but when it happens in Bangladesh, hardly anyone says anything,” Pawan Kalyan told ANI.

    In a post on X (formerly Twitter), he called for collective support: “Let’s unite to condemn the detention of Chinmoy Krishna Das by the Bangladeshi police. We urge the Bangladesh government, under Muhammad Yunus, to stop the harassment of Hindus. Our Indian soldiers have given their lives for the creation of Bangladesh, and it pains us to see our Hindu friends being attacked. We ask the UN to step in.”

    India’s Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) shared its “deep concern” on Tuesday about Das’s arrest and denied bail, asking Bangladesh to protect Hindus and other minorities.

    Das is a spokesperson for a group called Bangladesh Sammilit Sanatan Jagran Jote. The MEA pointed out that his arrest follows other attacks on Hindus by extremist groups in Bangladesh.

    In response, Bangladesh’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs dismissed India’s comments as “baseless” and stated that they go against the friendly relationship between the two countries. They stressed that their courts are independent, and the government does not interfere with them.

    Charges Against Chinmoy Krishna Das

    Chinmoy Krishna Das was arrested on Monday and was brought to a Chittagong court on Tuesday, where his request for bail was denied and he was placed in custody.

    According to the Dhaka Tribune, Das appeared before Judge Kazi Shariful Islam at 11 am. His lawyers asked for bail, but the judge did not allow it, sending Das to jail. He faces serious charges of sedition for allegedly raising a flag on a stand where Bangladesh’s national flag was displayed. However, the person who made the complaint reportedly doesn’t want to continue with the case, according to a leader from the minority community.

    ISKCON Bangladesh has condemned the arrest of Chinmoy Krishna Das and has asked the government to promote peaceful coexistence. The organization also made several requests to deal with ongoing attacks on the Sanatani community in Bangladesh.

    ISKCON’s requests include making sure that those who attack the Sanatani people are held responsible, protecting the rights of Chinmoy Krishna Das and other members of the Sanatani community, and taking steps to ensure peace and harmony among all groups.

  • Everything You Need to Know About the New PAN 2.0 Initiative

    Everything You Need to Know About the New PAN 2.0 Initiative

    On November 26, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), part of the finance ministry, shared details about a new initiative called PAN 2.0. This project is aimed at making the process of getting and managing a PAN card (Permanent Account Number) easier and more modern.

    If you already have a PAN card, you won’t need to get a new one. The CBDT said that they have been using QR codes on PAN cards since 2017-2018, and now they’re enhancing this feature with a dynamic QR code, which can help check your latest PAN information easily. If your current PAN card doesn’t have a QR code, you can choose to apply for a new card with a QR code either through the current PAN system or the new PAN 2.0 system.

    The PAN 2.0 project will cost about ₹1,435 crore and is expected to launch in 2025, though the exact date isn’t set yet. Here are some key points about how PAN 2.0 will differ from the current system:

    1. All Services in One Place: Right now, PAN services are available on three different websites. Under PAN 2.0, all services will be on a single website run by the Income Tax Department. This will let you handle everything related to your PAN and TAN (Tax Deduction Account Number) in one place, like applying, correcting details, and linking your Aadhaar.

    2. Paperless Process: You’ll be able to do everything online without needing to send in documents on paper.

    3. Free Corrections: You can update or correct your PAN details for free. You’ll need to pay ₹50 if you want a physical PAN card. If you live outside India, there will be additional charges.

    4. Updating Old Information: If you want to change your old address, you can do it for free using your Aadhaar card.

    5. Using PAN for Business: Your PAN will also serve as a common identifier for businesses in certain sectors, as mentioned in the 2023 Union Budget.

    6. No Duplicate PANs: You can only have one PAN card. If you find that you have more than one, you need to tell the tax office, so they can remove the extra ones.

    By making these changes, the government hopes to improve the processing of PAN cards and reduce issues with multiple PAN cards being issued.
