RS Prasad responds to Congress criticism over renaming stadium after PM Modi
Amid a controversy over a cricket stadium in Gujarat being renamed after Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the government on Wednesday said the name change involves only the Motera stadium and the entire sports complex continues to be named after Sardar Patel.
Asked about the allegations, Union Minister Prakash Javadekar, however, told reporters that only the Motera stadium has been renamed and the complex continues to be named after Vallabhbhai Patel.
Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, who was present alongside Javadekar at the media briefing after a cabinet meeting, also took a swipe at the Congress leaders, asking whether party chief Sonia Gandhi or Rahul Gandhi have so far praised the world's tallest statue of Sardar Patel erected at Kevadiya in Gujarat.
Global leaders expressed mixed reactions to Donald Trump’s second-term inauguration. Ukrainian President Zelensky emphasized peace through strength, while NATO highlighted increased defense spending. Israel’s Netanyahu celebrated a stronger alliance, and India’s Modi expressed enthusiasm for renewed collaboration. EU and Germany emphasized transatlantic ties, while Canada highlighted economic partnership amid tariff concerns. Trump’s return reignites international focus on diplomacy, alliances, and shared prosperity across the globe.
