Who's in, who's out: Political tensions rise as some turn down Ram Temple consecration invitation

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 27 December 2023
Controversy surrounds the invitations for the upcoming Ram Temple inauguration ceremony in Ayodhya. CPI (M) leader Sitaram Yechury declined the invitation, calling it a politicization of a religious event. Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal expressed his disinterest in participating, stating that Lord Ram is in his heart and the whole issue is a show-off. Samajwadi Party leader Dimple Yadav expressed her willingness to attend if invited. The Shiv Sena criticized the BJP for inviting only top political leaders, with Sanjay Raut suggesting that PM Modi was the only 'VIP' in the country.

Trump Kill Bid: How a Series of Security Lapses, Failures Led to Near Fatal Shooting | Details

Former President Donald Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Thomas Crooks fired five shots from an AR-15 rifle from a 120-yard distance. The incident highlighted critical security lapses compared to the SPG protocols for India's PM Modi, which include limited exposure and thorough sweeps. Footage revealed disorganised Secret Service personnel, insufficient Bullet-resistant shields, and Sniper protection. This event recalls the assassination of Japan's former PM Shinzo Abe and underscores the urgent need for a comprehensive review of security measures for political candidates. #DonaldTrump #TrumpWeapon #AR15 #USGunLaws #USSecurityService #SecurityServiceChief #KimberlyCheatle #TrumpAssassinationAttempt #TrumpShot #DonaldTrumpShot #DonaldTrumpAssassination #AssassinationDonaldTrump #DonaldTrumpShotCampaign #DonaldTrumpEar #DonaldTrumpBullet #USNews #BreakingNews #InternationalNews #DonaldTrumpAssassination #biden #Trump #PoliticalViolence #NationalUnity #USPresident #breakingNews #Rehobothbeach #DonaldTrump #SecretService #StateAgencies ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.334~

LS Election Results 2024: Sanjay Raut Extends Full Support to Rahul Gandhi to Become Prime Minister [Video]

LS Election Results 2024: Sanjay Raut Extends Full Support to Rahul Gandhi to Become Prime Minister

In a recent statement, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut discussed the leadership and future prospects of the INDIA alliance. On the question of Rahul Gandhi being the prime ministerial candidate, Raut expressed full support, stating, "If Rahul Gandhi is ready to accept the leadership, why would we object? He is a national leader and has proved himself. He is popular... We all love him. In the INDIA alliance, there is no difference of opinion on who will be the Prime Minister." Raut also addressed the current political landscape, criticising the BJP's performance. He mentioned that the BJP had secured only around 235-240 seats, falling short of a majority. He pointed out that the BJP's reliance on allies like Chandrababu Naidu and Nitish Kumar makes their government unstable, asserting, "If the NDA government is formed with the support of these two pillars... it can fall anytime." Raut claimed that the BJP has lost its respect and that the "Modi brand is finished." He attributed BJP's wins to the influence of the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), and Income Tax (IT) department. Despite this, Raut acknowledged their democratic right to form a government but emphasized that the INDIA alliance, with its 250 seats, also has a mandate to govern. He concluded by questioning the loyalty of Naidu and Kumar to the BJP, suggesting they might choose to support democracy over dictatorship. #loksabharesult #SanyajRaut #MaharashtraResults #INDIAAlliance #RahulGandhi #RahulGandhiPM #NitishKumar #MallikarjunKharge #CongressPressConference #RahulGandhi #Modi #Adani #StockMarket #CongressPressConference #Congress #CongressCelebrations #RahulGandhi #SP #UPResult #AkhileshYadav #loksabharesult2024 #loksabharesultlive #electionresults2024 #electionresultslive #liveelectionresult #electionresultsnow #electionresult #electionresulttoday #2024elections #2024loksabhaelection2024 #2024electionresult #chunavresult #loksabhaelection2024 #loksabha2024 #bjp #congress #pmmodi #narendramodi #rahulgandhi #electionbreaking #electionnews #election2024 ~PR.152~ED.101~
