Longer than World War I: 10 ways Russia-Ukraine conflict has changed the world for decades to come — for better or worse

Vamsikrishna010 mins mins

The Russia-Ukraine war, now longer than WWI, is fundamentally reshaping global order. The Russia–Ukraine war has now lasted 1,575 days as of June 17, 2026 — a grim milestone that makes it longer than World War I (1,568 days).That comparison matters: World War I didn’t just redraw borders; it shattered old assumptions about how wars…

. Two of the six Sena UBT MPs said to be part of the breakaway group, Omraje Nimbalkar from Dharashiv and Sanjay Patil from Mumbai North East, have not signed the letter sent to LS Speaker for recognition as a separate group, Sena UBT claimed.Patil and Nimbalkar claimed they were not in New Delhi on Wednesday. But Shinde Sena sources said ‘Operation Tiger’ or the process of getting the six MPs on its side had been completed barring public announcement.Except for Arvind Sawant and Anil Desai from Mumbai and Rajabhau Waze from Nashik, others were now part of the separate group, sources said. Nimbalkar, however, said he had decided to make his stand clear after June 20, and Sanjay Patil said he was in Mumbai. “I’m tired of this speculation. If something is going to happen, it will happen. There is no point in discussing this. I will not go anywhere for any rebel MPs’ list. I’ve not been invited by Shinde Sena, so why should I go to them? I’m not in touch with other MPs,” Sanjay Patil said.UBT Sena issued a ‘whip’ for a parliamentary party meeting to be held in Delhi on Thursday, to see how many MPs are with it. It would be hoping that more than 3 LS MPs attend; if that happens, it will be a setback for Shinde Sena as rebel MPs’ number then would not meet the 2/3rds requirement for a separate group that then merges with a party.Raut, addressing a presser in New Delhi with just three of the party’s MPs with him (Sawant, Desai and Waze), alleged there was pressure on Omraje Nimbalkar to join Shinde Sena. Raut said that 20 years ago, Omraje’s father was killed, and trial in the case was on. “If he joins Shinde Sena, he will get relief from court,” he claimed. The case is about the June 2006 assassination of prominent Congress neta Pawanraje Nimbalkar and his driver in Navi Mumbai. A CBI court in Mumbai is scheduled to deliver its verdict in the case on June 20.Raut claimed that the MPs were reportedly being offered Rs 50 crore each, and Rs 15 crore was “just the advance.”In a post on X on Tuesday night, where he tagged CM Devendra Fadnavis, Raut said, “Apna Sapna Money Money! It’s shocking and revolting that Maharashtra MPs are reportedly being offered Rs 15 crore each tonight to switch sides.”Reacting to Raut’s post, Trinamool MP Mahua Moitra claimed in a post on Wednesday, “Rs 15 cr? Saste mein kyo jaa rahe hai? Believe ours got Rs 4cr up front and Rs 1cr a month for next 36 months of term… Honey plus Money.”Raut responded to her, saying, “No no – Mahua ji, Minimum Support Price is fixed at Rs 50 crore per MP.

. CHENNAI: Holding that mala fide intent could not be ruled out in a proposal to build a church in the vicinity of a Hindu temple, Madras HC has stayed its construction in Coimbatore.”Coimbatore is a communally sensitive city. It witnessed bomb blasts and bloody religious riots. The proposed church would come up within a stone’s throw from the existing Mariyamman Temple. There are only a handful of Christian families. If a large church is proposed to be constructed in the vicinity of the Mariyamman Temple, mala fide intentions cannot be ruled out,” a division bench of Justices G R Swaminathan and V Lakshminarayanan said.The court said it would also take on record the submission of the petitioner that since a new govt led by C Joseph Vijay was formed, “posters have appeared in some parts of Tamil Nadu calling for construction of churches in every village”.The interim order was passed on a plea by N Balasubramaniyam opposing the construction of a church at Kalapatty in Coimbatore. “The petitioner hints at the possibility of the new building being a centre of conversion activity. We are a secular nation. We are a pluralist society. Religious amity has to be preserved. If a religious right is established, then it is the duty of the state to aid in its enforcement,” the judges said.The court said the situation would have been different if the construction was proposed on a patta land whose title was beyond dispute, there was no religious structure belonging to any other community in the immediate vicinity or if there was no opposition. In the case at hand, however, revenue records indicated the site was a public road, the location was too close to an old temple, and there was vigorous resistance, the HC added.The court also placed on record the submission of the petitioner that TN assembly speaker JCD Prabhakar quoted Bible verses in his inaugural address to the legislative assembly.Get the latest India news and live updates.

Representative photo (AP) NEW DELHI: Drug price regulator National Pharmaceuticals Pricing Authority (NPPA) has approved a 20% price hike for Serum Institute of India’s BCG, measles and measles-rubella vaccines.This move is unusual since price hikes are rare when one company dominates the market.NPPA had fixed the pr-ice ceiling in Dec 2024 based on Pharmarack data after applying monopoly reduction of 17.1% under Drugs Prices Control Order, 2013. Serum Institute filed a review application with the department of pharmaceuticals (DoP), which referred the matter to NPPA. Serum Institute had argued that the vaccines were complex, had few alternatives, and costs had been rising.”The vaccines in question are of critical public health significance, have shown relatively stable price trends, impose minimal financial burden on citizens and are supplied by a single manufacturer at relatively low prices,” read DoP’s submission to NPPA.NPPA decided that ceiling price may be revised without applying reduction under monopolistic condition “to address the grievance of the applicant as well as to ensure sufficient availability of the drug in the market”, the notification said. The BCG vaccine now costs Rs 9.9 per dose (up from Rs 8.2), measles-rubella Rs 87.93 (from Rs 72.9), and measles Rs 62 (Rs 51.4).Get the latest India news and live updates.
