IndiaTimes Sunday, 7 January 2024
The Maldives government has suspended three ministers after their racist and derogatory remarks against India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Lakshadweep post triggered a massive controversy. The old guard of the island nation came to India's defense and urged the government to realize New Delhi's key role in the nation's development. Ahmed Mahloof, the former sports minister of Maldives, condemned the language used by the ministers and warned that a boycott by Indian tourists would deeply hurt the economy.

AAP Releases Final Candidate List for Delhi Elections: Kejriwal to Face High-Stakes Battle in Delhi

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has unveiled its fourth and final list of 38 candidates for the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections. Arvind Kejriwal, the party's chief, will once again contest from the high-profile New Delhi constituency, a seat he won in 2013 and 2015. This marks a crucial moment in the Delhi political landscape, with intense competition expected, particularly with Congress fielding Sandeep Dikshit, son of the late Sheila Dikshit.
