DMK slams Vijay govt over arrest attempt of Gen Z leader NEW DELHI: The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) MP Kanimozhi on Wednesday strongly condemned the Vijay-led government’s “attempt to arrest its Gen Z wing coordinator, Anbananthan Ariyappan, during a late-night operation at his residence.”The actions of the police under the TVK government, who allegedly entered a house in the middle of the night and attempted to arrest Mr. Anbananthan Ariyappan, the Gen Z wing coordinator of the DMK, are condemnable,” she said in a post on X.The opposition party leader further alleged that the government was targeting young people who raise questions against those in power. It warned that attempts to silence critics would be met with resistance from Tamil Nadu’s youth. “The TVK government may believe it can suppress and silence young people who question it, but the youth of Tamil Nadu will soon give an appropriate response,” she added.The allegations come a day after a heated confrontation between the ruling TVK and the opposition DMK in the Tamil Nadu assembly.On Tuesday, chief minister Vijay launched a sharp attack on DMK, alleging that during its previous tenure in power, funds from various government departments were diverted into what he termed “party funds.” He further claimed that the previous DMK government had “siphoned” public money, drawing strong objections from opposition members.Leader of opposition Udhayanidhi Stalin immediately protested the remarks and demanded that the chief minister substantiate the allegations with evidence rather than make what he described as baseless accusations. The exchange triggered noisy scenes in the House, with DMK legislators rising in protest.Get the latest India news and live updates.

MEA NEW DELHI: Govt on Tuesday trashed Pakistani defence minister Khawaja Asif’s remarks threatening war against India over suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, describing them as a desperate attempt by Islamabad to divert attention from its own failings and human rights record. “We have seen some reports on the matter. Such remarks are desperate attempts by Pakistan to cover up its own failings and deflect attention away from its human rights abuses,” ministry of external affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said. “We categorically reject these fabricated claims.”Jaiswal said ongoing protests in PoK stem from Pakistan’s “systemic economic exploitation, denial of fundamental rights, and administrative oppression” in the region. He alleged Pakistan responded with brutality, including supply blockades, net blackouts and lethal force against civilians.On Bangladesh’s protest over adviser Zahed Ur Rahman being stopped at Delhi airport, Jaiswal said he was questioned, later permitted entry, but chose to return to Dhaka.Get the latest India news and live updates.

New Delhi: PM Narendra Modi met NSAs and senior security officials from BRICS nations on Tuesday, highlighting the group’s enhanced role in tackling today’s global security challenges.During the interaction, PM Modi said BRICS is a key platform for strengthening security cooperation at a time of rapid global change. He called on member nations — Brazil, China, Egypt, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Iran, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa and the UAE — to boost collaboration and tackle shared vulnerabilities. In a post on X, the PM reiterated India’s commitment to its chairmanship agenda, which focuses on “Building for Resilience, Innovation, Cooperation and Sustainability”.“In a changing global landscape, BRICS has a vital role in deepening security cooperation and addressing shared challenges, from terrorism and cybersecurity to emerging technologies. India’s chairmanship will seek to advance practical cooperation, support the priorities of the Global South and contribute to a safer, more secure and inclusive world,” Modi posted.In his televised opening remarks at BRICS NSAs’ meeting, NSA Ajit Doval, speaking about the impact of “geopolitical uncertainties and economic strains”, underlined the need for the grouping to play a more significant role in addressing the challenges. Hailing BRICS as a “very special coalition”, Doval expressed elation over its growth.He welcomed the US-Iran MoU on ending hostilities in West Asia, saying it will stabilise global energy security. “The opening of the Strait of Hormuz is a very welcome development. It will remove supply chain bottlenecks and (address) shortages in sectors like fertilisers and chemicals,” he said.“We are meeting at a very tumultuous time. The world is facing geopolitical uncertainties, economic strains, and disruptive technology. Not only are the threats compounding, but the instruments and institutional mechanisms are increasingly finding themselves inadequate to resolve or mitigate these conflicts,” Doval said, adding “multilateralism is on the decline.” Against a backdrop of “increasing geopolitical uncertainty”, the talks focused on non-traditional threats like terrorism, cybersecurity and risks from emerging technologies.Get the latest India news and live updates.

Ambassador Parvathaneni Harish, India’s Permanent Representative to the UN in New York (File photo) NEW DELHI: India on Tuesday strongly objected to Pakistan raising the Kashmir issue at a United Nations forum, accusing Islamabad of politicising the platform.The remarks were made by India’s Permanent Representative to the UN in New York, Ambassador Parvathaneni Harish, in response to comments by Pakistan’s Permanent Representative, Asim Iftikhar Ahmad. Pakistan had raised the Kashmir issue during the proceedings, a subject it frequently brings up at international forums.Responding to Pakistan’s intervention, Harish criticised the conduct of the co-chair and reiterated India’s long-standing position on Jammu and Kashmir.”I also refer to the unwarranted remarks made by the representative of Pakistan. It is incredible that a co-chair expected to be balanced and unbiased in conduct has chosen to politicize this forum. I would only like to stress for brevity of time that the Union territory of Jammu and Kashmir is a matter strictly internal to India, it has always been is and will remain so,” Harish said.The Indian envoy also spoke about the ongoing review of UN mandates under the UN-80 framework, which aims to improve efficiency across the organisation.”…India would like to emphasize that at a time when member states are undertaking mandate implementation review under the UN-80 framework, for all UN General Assembly mandates in order to achieve efficiencies. There is no reason why UN Security Council mandate should be outside the purview of such UN80 frameworks…” Harish said.The strong reaction from India came days after Pakistan’s defence minister Khawaja Asif made provocative remarks against New Delhi over the Indus Waters Treaty, indicating that the suspension could deepen Pakistan’s water crisis.Get the latest India news and live updates.
