Rahul Gandhi says Prime Minister called us Naxalites
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while celebrating Deepavali with CRPF personnel in Bastar, Chhattisgarh, had said that despite armed Naxalites becoming weaker, “mental Naxal” forces remained active in organisations and political parties. Responding to this, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi said the Prime Minister had called the opposition Naxalites. He also challenged the Prime Minister to an open debate in front of the personnel.
Challenge grows for Trump after election defeat
After the Republican Party’s major defeat in the 2026 midterm elections in the United States, questions have begun to be raised about Donald Trump and his political movement. Discontent has also emerged among his supporters over inflation, the Iran war and government decisions. However, Trump has indicated that he will maintain a tough line in his political strategy.
Firing on kar sevaks was ordered to save Constitution: SP MP
On the police firing on kar sevaks in Ayodhya in 1990, SP MP Sanatan Pandey defended the decision of then chief minister Mulayam Singh Yadav. He said maintaining the status quo at the disputed site was a constitutional responsibility and the decision to open fire was taken to protect the Constitution. After the statement, political allegations and counter-allegations between the BJP and the SP have intensified.
