IndiaTimes Wednesday, 14 February 2024
Seven BJP candidates filed their nomination papers for Rajya Sabha elections. An eighth contender may be fielded, requiring polling on Feb 27. BJP-led NDA has enough strength to send seven nominees. Cross voting may intensify the face-off between BJP and SP. BJP's strength is growing under PM Modi's leadership, and UP has a 'double-engine' government under CM Yogi Adityanath.

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.
