    Congress-NC Alliance Secures Victory

    This significant political moment comes after the Congress-National Conference (NC) alliance secured a majority in the recently concluded Jammu and Kashmir Assembly elections. The coalition won a total of 48 seats, with the National Conference emerging victorious in 42 constituencies, while the Congress secured 6.

    The formation of the new government marks the first elected administration in Jammu and Kashmir since the abrogation of Article 370 and the reorganization of the state into two Union Territories in 2019.

    A Legacy of Leadership

    Omar Abdullah’s political journey is deeply rooted in the history of Jammu and Kashmir. His grandfather, Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah, was the first Prime Minister of Jammu and Kashmir after its accession to India and later served as the Chief Minister.

    His father, Dr. Farooq Abdullah, has held the position of Chief Minister three times. Omar himself previously served as Chief Minister of the erstwhile state from 2009 to 2015 and was also the Union Minister of State for External Affairs under former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s government from 2001 to 2002.

    End of Presidential Rule in J&K

    Jammu and Kashmir had been under President’s rule since 2018 after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) withdrew its support from the coalition government led by Mehbooba Mufti of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). The recent revocation of President’s rule in Jammu and Kashmir has paved the way for the formation of a new government, following the successful assembly elections.

  • “Pakistan has been misusing this platform, look into your own secrets”: India’s befitting reply to Pakistan in UN

    “Pakistan has been misusing this platform, look into its own secrets”: India

    New Delhi:

    India has once again reprimanded Pakistan for its actions on the international platform. In the United Nations (UN), India has instructed Pakistan to look inward and pay attention to its internal situation. On Friday, Pakistan’s acting Prime Minister Anwar ul Haq Kakar had sung the song of Kashmir from this platform. He had said that Kashmir is very important for establishing peace. India took Pakistan to task on this. First Secretary in India’s Permanent Mission to the UN, Petal Gehlot, while using the Right to Reply on behalf of India, said that Pakistan is a victim of the habit of misusing this platform.

    Pakistan spreads baseless propaganda against India

    India said in the UN, “Pakistan continuously spreads baseless/malicious propaganda against India. UN member countries and organizations know that Pakistan does this so that it can divert the attention of the international world from its poor human rights record. Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh are an integral part of India. Matters related to them are India’s internal matter. Pakistan has no right to speak on India’s internal matters.

    Pakistan should look into its own affairs

    Regarding the human rights situation in Pakistan, India said, “Pakistan is one of the worst countries in the world in terms of human rights. This is not hidden from anyone. This situation is even worse in terms of the rights of minorities and women. World Instead of pointing fingers at India’s largest democracy, Pakistan should first put its own house in order.

    Pakistan reveals its report on human rights

    India said in the UN, “The burning of 19 churches and 89 houses of Christians in Jalanwala of Faisalabad district of Pakistan in August is a big example of atrocities on minorities. Religious places of Ahmadiyya were also destroyed. Hindu, Sikh and Christian minorities “Huge atrocities on women of the community are taking place in Pakistan. Pakistan’s own report on human rights mentions the kidnapping, forced conversion and forced marriage of 1000 women from the minority community.”

    Pakistan will have to do these 3 things for peace in South Asia

    Pakistan has been the biggest refuge for internationally declared terrorists and organizations, this is not hidden from anyone. Our demand is that Pakistan should take concrete action against the culprits of Mumbai attacks. The victims of this attack have been waiting for justice for 15 years. For peace in South Asia, Pakistan will have to do three things. Stop cross border terrorism immediately, eliminate terrorist infrastructure. Second, immediately vacate the Indian areas under illegal occupation. And thirdly, stop atrocities on minorities in Pakistan.

  • Mountains on one side, ditch on the other: Inside story of Anantnag encounter of Jammu and Kashmir

    Mountains on one side, ditch on the other: Inside story of Anantnag encounter of Jammu and Kashmir

    Encounter between security forces and terrorists continues in Anantnag district of Jammu and Kashmir.

    New Delhi:

    Anantnag encounter is not ending. The encounter with security forces that started late Tuesday night is continuing. It is clear that the terrorists have come with full preparation. They have no shortage of ammunition and food items.

    According to information received by NDTV India from security forces, on Tuesday, the Army and Police received input from the informer that terrorists are hiding in Gadul in Kokernag area. When the area was searched, nothing was found. Just received information that terrorists are on top of the hill. The army and police team decided to attack the terrorists.

    Quick response could not be taken on difficult path

    The path to climb up the hill is quite narrow and full of challenges. On one side there are mountains and dense forests and on the other side there is a deep ditch. On top of that there was darkness of night. Next was Colonel Manpreet Singh, Commanding Officer of 19 Rashtriya Rifles, then Major Ashish and then DSP of Police Humayun Bhatt. In the hide out above, the terrorists could see the security forces coming up from below. As soon as the terrorists came near their cave, they started heavy firing. The army and police did not get a chance to recover. The route was also such that even if one wanted to, one could not take forceful retaliatory action under the cover of anything. There was also a danger of falling down.

    When an army colonel, a major and a police DSP were shot, they could not be immediately taken to the hospital. There was heavy firing at that place. Neither the helicopter could be landed nor the injured officers could get immediate medical help. With great difficulty the bodies of all three could be taken out in the morning.

    Explosives are being dropped through Heron

    Since then, security forces have surrounded the hill where the terrorists were hiding from all sides. Explosives are being dropped at that place through Heron purchased from Israel. Rocket launchers are being fired. Special Forces soldiers are also continuously attacking. The problem is that the army has not yet been able to dominate the area. The geographical structure of that place is such that there is a lot of difficulty in carrying out the operation.

    There are trained terrorists with modern weapons

    According to the information, the number of terrorists in these hilly areas is more than two-three. These include Uzair Khan, who joined Lashkar Toiba last year. He has complete information about the area and the terrorists are benefiting from it. According to security experts, ordinary terrorists cannot stand before the security forces for so long. Their training is of top class and their weapons are also unmatched. It is also possible that the informer may have double crossed or someone may have leaked the movements of the security forces. Ending this operation has become a big challenge for the security forces.
