Village on border of Assam, Meghalaya votes in both states

IndiaTimes Sunday, 5 May 2024
Nearly 65 families in the village also hold voting rights in Meghalaya due to their proximity to the border. Living along the disputed Assam-Meghalaya border areas, these "dual voters" have been exercising their franchise in Assam for decades, even after the creation of Meghalaya in 1972. Assam govt provides them electricity and has built the main road, while Meghalaya govt offers job cards under MGNREGA, water supply, and assistance for agriculture, among other benefits.

Manipur Unrest: Conrad Sangma’s NPP Withdraws Support To Biren Singh Govt, Says it ‘Failed to…’

The National People’s Party (NPP), led by Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad Sangma, has withdrawn its support to the BJP-led government in Manipur, citing the failure of Chief Minister N Biren Singh’s administration in handling the escalating unrest in the state. The NPP’s decision, which involves its seven MLAs in the state legislature, highlights the growing dissatisfaction with the handling of ethnic violence and protests that have been intensifying since May 2023. Despite this move, the BJP’s hold on the government remains largely unaffected due to its strong majority. This development marks a critical moment in Manipur’s volatile political and security landscape, with the NPP accusing the Singh-led government of incompetence in managing the ongoing crisis. #ManipurUnrest #ConradSangma #NPPWithdrawal #BirenSingh #ManipurCrisis #PoliticalTurbulence #BJPManipur #NPPSupport #EthnicViolence #CrisisManagement #ManipurPolitics #GovtFailure #NPPBreaksAlliance #BJPLeadGovt #ManipurProtests ~HT.97~PR.152~ED.101~GR.344~

CNN Under Fire After Freed Syrian Prisoner Revealed to Be Assad Regime Torturer, Musk Reacts

CNN is facing widespread criticism after a Syrian prisoner freed in a high-profile rescue effort led by journalist Clarissa Ward was revealed to be Salama Mohammad Salama, a notorious torturer for the Assad regime. Initially identified as an innocent detainee named Adel Ghurbal, Salama was later unmasked through Facial recognition and eyewitness testimonies as a first lieutenant in Syrian Air Force Intelligence, known for war crimes and extortion. Elon Musk fueled the backlash by mocking CNN on social media, amplifying public outrage. The revelation has sparked global condemnation and questions about CNN’s vetting process. #CNNControversy #AssadRegime #SyriaTorturer #ElonMusk #FakeNews #SyrianPrisoner #ClarissaWard #WarCrimes #SalamaMohammadSalama #AssadTorture #CNNExposed #MuskVsCNN #SocialMediaBacklash #MediaAccountability #SyrianRescue Also Read Assam: 5 POCSO-Accused Inmates Escape Prison Scaling 20-Ft Wall Using Lungis, Bedsheets :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/assam-5-pocso-accused-inmates-escape-prison-scaling-20-ft-wall-using-lungis-bedsheets-3958507.html?ref=DMDesc UN Experts Urge Bahrain to Ensure Adequate Prison Conditions in Heat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/un-experts-call-for-better-prisoner-conditions-in-bahrain-011-3908603.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Agrees to Release Hostages in Exchange for Palestinian Prisoners :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-agrees-to-release-hostages-in-exchange-for-palestinian-prisoners-gen-3690723.html?ref=DMDesc
