Rameshwaram Cafe’s low-intensity blast in the Whitefield area has left at least 9 individuals injured. Authorities have confirmed that it was an improvised explosive device (IED) blast, and a suspect has been identified. The police have identified a suspect who, in a seemingly calculated move, left behind a bag containing an improvised explosive device. The incident bears similarities to a blast reported in Mangaluru back in 2022.

LS Polls 2024: Congress manifesto launch | Priyanka Gandhi, Kharge slam BJP, Modi | Oneindia News

Top Congress leaders, including the party president Mallikarjun Kharge, former president Sonia Gandhi, held a rally in Jaipur on Saturday, April 6, to publicly launch its election manifesto 'Nyay Patra'. The Jaipur public rally comes a day after the Congress released its manifesto for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls promising a legal guarantee for MSP, and passing a constitutional amendment to raise the 50 per cent cap on reservations for SCs, STs and OBCs among others. The release of the manifesto 'Nyay Patra' was announced by Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, expressing happiness and pride in her mother Sonia Gandhi's presence in Rajasthan after becoming a member of the Rajya Sabha. Unemployment, claimed to be at its peak, was criticised, with allegations made against the BJP and Modi government for failing to address the issue adequately. The Agniveer scheme, accused of shattering people's hopes, was mentioned, along with concerns raised about leaked papers in various states and the ongoing protests by farmers, suggesting that PM Modi is unwilling to heed their grievances.

LS Polls 2024: Delhi Congress chief Arvinder Lovely resigns, cites interference by leader | Oneindia

Arvinder Singh Lovely, the Delhi Congress chief, tendered his resignation on Sunday, citing significant interference by the party's general secretary in-charge and the contentious alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Delhi. In his resignation letter addressed to Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge, Lovely expressed feeling "handicapped" and unable to effectively lead the Delhi Congress unit. Highlighting numerous instances of discord, Lovely outlined objections raised by several party leaders regarding the conduct of Deepak Babaria, the Congress's general secretary in-charge for Delhi. Despite these objections, Lovely faced immense pressure to dismiss the dissenting leaders who opposed Babaria's approach. #ArvinderLovely #DelhiCongress #Resignation #LeaderInterference #Elections2024 #LokSabhaPolls #CongressAAPAlliance #PoliticalResignation #PartyInterference #DelhiPolitics #LeadershipFriction #PoliticalAlliance #PartyConflict #PoliticalTensions #CongressLeaders ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.101~
