Cabinet reshuffle buzz as minister Kurian resignsCabinet reshuffle buzz as minister Kurian resignsCabinet reshuffle buzz as minister Kurian resigns12 NEW DELHI: George Kurian’s resignation as minister of state for minority affairs and PM Modi calling on the President re-ignited the buzz about the likelihood of a ministerial reshuffle before monsoon session of Parliament, slated for the second half of July. Kurian’s resignation, which had been on the cards since the lapse of his Rajya Sabha membership, has formally opened up a vacancy.At least one more slot is set to open up as Ravneet Singh Bittu , minister of state for railways, has also ceased to be a member of RS.More vacancies can follow if BJP chooses to implement the ‘one man-one post’ principle — something that would see chiefs of BJP’s Uttar Pradesh and Delhi units, Pankaj Chaudhary and Harsh Malhotra, resigning as MoS in ministries of finance and urban development.A reshuffle has been talked about also because of what is considered to be the need to infuse vigour into certain ministries which seem to be struggling to cope with the pace Prime Minister Narendra Modi has set and political considerations, including the increase in numbers of Shiv Sena (Shinde) after six MPs from the rival Uddhav Thackeray faction crossed over.BJP circles have also speculated whether West Bengal’s representation in the ministry will increase after the party’s surprise victory in the state in May.While Kurian’s resignation was expected, his appointment had caused surprise. Having looked after the office of BJP in Kerala, he was shocked when Modi plucked him to serve as a minister. The Prime Minister also managed to find a vacant seat, in what was seen as his gesture to a party faithful who had worked with no expectation of a reward.Kurian’s RS term had come to end on June 22.Get the latest India news and live updates.

NEW DELHI: Delhi girl Devina Gahlot, 17, from DPS Vasant Kunj, with 100 percentile in three (economics, political science and psychology) of her five subjects and an aggregate of 1232.19, is this year’s CUET-UG topper. The second topper, Saksham Goel, with an aggregate of 1230.82, too is from Delhi, while Udit Chaturvedi (1207.21), ranked third, is from Himachal Pradesh. The results were announced by National Testing Agency (NTA) on Tuesday. The undergraduate entrance test for 244 participating universities saw a significant increase in top scorers in 2026, with the number securing 100 percentile in at least one subject rising 20% to 3,417, more than twice the 8.6% growth in examinees. The examination recorded its largest-ever pool of applicants and candidates this year, though the percentage share of registered students who actually appeared fell. Registrations climbed 15.8%, from 13,54,699 to 15,68,867, while the number appearing increased from 10,71,735 to 11,64,098.The share of registered candidates who took the examination fell from 79.1% in 2025 to 74.2% this year, a decline of 4.9 percentage points. Nearly 4.05 lakh registered candidates stayed away in 2026, compared with 2.83 lakh last year.Devina, who also scored 99.99 and 99.91 in English and fine arts, respectively, notched a 99% aggregate in her Class XII results. “I want to study English (honours) and would prefer St Stephen’s or Hindu College. I have tried my hand at writing and have interest in journalism, but right now I would like to focus on my under-graduation and take one step at a time,” said Devina, daughter of former Delhi minister and current BJP MLA Kailash Gahlot.Preparation for her is all “about regular and consistent study plan and being thorough with her NCERT books.” She added that the “biggest peace of mind and contribution came from my parents, who never put pressure on me”.In a repeat of last year’s subject-wise best performance, one candidate secured 100 percentile in four of the five subjects chosen. The number achieving it in three subjects rose from 17 to 22, an increase of 29.4%, while those securing 100 percentile in two subjects increased from 150 to 180 and those securing it in one subject rose from 2,679 to 3,214.Overall, around 0.3% of candidates who appeared this year secured 100 percentile in at least one paper, compared with 0.2% in 2025.

Madhya Pradesh CM Mohan Yadav LUCKNOW/NEW DELHI: Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav alleged on Tuesday that land-related accusations against Madhya Pradesh CM Mohan Yadav were part of a BJP plot to discredit and replace 3 of its CMs, including in Rajasthan and UP, even as Congress attacked the MP CM.The allegation followed a report by ‘The Indian Express’ that Mohan Yadav’s family and real estate firms had acquired at least 137 plots spanning 168 acres in Ujjain for Rs 45 crore in 2years since Dec 2023. The plots were allegedly concentrated in areas that benefited from road projects and land-use changes announced by MP govt.“If those are the allegations against Mohan Yadav, UP CM has bought 300-600 acres of land,” Akhilesh alleged in Lucknow. Congress also trained its guns on Mohan Yadav, alleging ‘plunder’.Under BJP’s ‘double-engine’ government in Madhya Pradesh, ‘engine of plunder’ is running at full speed,” Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said in a Hindi post on X, sharing the news report.MP chief minister Mohan Yadav himself was at helm of this alleged “looting”, Ramesh alleged. He also pointed to speculation that the Union agriculture minister, who moved from MP to Centre, had orchestrated “planting of stories” against the chief minister — an apparent reference to Shivraj Singh Chouhan. “The infighting appears to be over seat of power and a share in spoils,” Ramesh said.Akhilesh Yadav rejected allegations against Mohan Yadav, saying land purchases by his family were not new because he had been in real estate before becoming chief minister. “Wasn’t BJP aware that he was into real estate business? You know why these allegations are being levelled at this stage? This is because BJP is looking for ways to replace 3 CMs,” Akhilesh said.He alleged BJP was working to remove Mohan Yadav and the CMs of Rajasthan and UP. But a change of guard would not alter BJP’s fortunes in UP, he said, predicting SP’s “bicycle” would race past rivals in 2027 assembly polls.“In upcoming elections, Samajwadi Party’s cycle will move at a speed that all other parties will clear its way on their own,” he said, drawing cheers from party workers.Congress general secretary KC Venugopal questioned why central investigative agencies had not acted against Mohan Yadav. “PM Modi, why have ED-CBI not knocked on doors of MP CM Mohan Yadav? Is a 253-acre mega land scam not grounds enough to chase him and punish him for his crimes?” Venugopal asked.He alleged BJP used investigative agencies to hound opposition politicians, settle political scores and pressure rivals into joining its alliance, but had gone silent when its own functionaries were accused of looting public wealth.Get the latest India news and live updates.

CJI Chief Justice Surya Kant Tuesday acknowledged that the judiciary faced the challenge of preserving the public’s faith in it and said the panacea lay in the judges’ knowledge, integrity and commitment to expeditious and fair justice delivery.Initiating a dialogue between the Indian Supreme Court and the SC of Russian Federation in Moscow, the CJI said despite varied history and tradition, the emerging common challenge to judiciary was “how to preserve public confidence in the administration of justice while adapting to a rapidly changing world”.He said despite the rapid advancement of technology and its use in judiciary, the fundamental purpose of courts was primarily to uphold justice in a manner that commanded public trust. “While technology may expand the reach of courts, it is ultimately the learning, integrity and commitment of judges who serve within them that determine the quality of justice delivered,” CJI Kant said.Speaking in the presence of chairman of the Supreme Court of Russian Federation Igor Krasnov, the CJI noted that technology may aid justice delivery but could never replace judicial values and adjudications.He said technology had become a means in India to make courts accessible, efficient, user-friendly, transparent and responsive to people’s grievances through electronic filing, digital case management, digitisation of court records, online access to court records, virtual hearings and video conferencing facilities.He said artificial intelligence was also playing its part in judicial administration and legal research as well as translating judgments in 16 regional languages. However, he ruled out any role for AI in the core function of judiciary – adjudication of disputes.”Administration of justice is, and must remain, fundamentally a human endeavour. AI may assist judges by organising information, facilitating translations, generating transcripts, and streamlining administrative processes,” CJI Kant said.Get the latest India news and live updates.
