Police did not use force and eventually opened the route, allowing the farmers to proceed into the city.The protest, organised under the banner of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha, began on Monday with a sit-in at Sethanighat in Narmadapuram, where farmers recited the Hanuman Chalisa before starting their march towards Bhopal, PTI reported.Earlier, police had attempted to stop the march by erecting barricades at Bhopal Tiraha and other locations. District Magistrate Somesh Mishra and Superintendent of Police Saikrishna S. Thota held talks with the protesting farmers on National Highway-69, but the discussions failed to break the deadlock.The farmers are demanding 100 per cent procurement of moong under MSP, a solution to issues related to the e-token system, and the timely availability of fertilisers at reasonable prices.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

The earlier assessment of giving the airline a facelift in five years under the Vihaan programme has proven to be a grossly optimistic one, requiring a reset of the timelines.“Given where it began, Air India’s transformation must be seen as a five- to ten-year journey, considering the years-long supply chain disruptions in key components, the need to overhaul legacy systems, culture and fleet, and the creation of a large cadre of technical and airline professionals,” Tata Sons chairman N Chandrasekaran said in the company’s annual ‌report for 2025-26.While remaining optimistic about AI and reiterating the group’s commitment to the airline, he lists the issues the airline has faced that have caused the timeline overrun: “Few businesses are as vulnerable to war and fuel pressures as aviation. This year, Air India faced three external headwinds. Airspace closures; West Asia conflict-driven fuel price hikes and foreign exchange fluctuations; and the crash of AI171 made it the most challenging year for Air India. At every stage, Air India’s teams responded with resilience and adaptability.”The combined impact of all these factors made Air India report ‌a loss of Rs 22,238 crore in FY 26, as opposed to a loss of Rs 10,859 crore a year earlier. Also the flight reductions that started with Operation Sindoor last year and then compounded post AI 171 crash and the recent West Asia crisis saw AI FY 26 revenue fall to Rs 71,870 crore, from Rs 78,636 crore in the previous fiscal. The Tatas are currently looking for a new CEO for AI as incumbent Campbell Wilson will be leaving shortly. In the interim, Chandra is directly supervising the affairs of the company with the support of a team led by former AI CMD (of PSU days) and ex aviation secretary P S Kharola.The group is not giving up on AI and has long term plans for the company. “In 2047, the centennial of Indian independence, a young Indian will board an Air India plane, built with Indian components, chips fabricated on Indian soil, protected by defence systems built in India… A nation of 1.4 billion people, with one of the world’s fastest growing economies, deserves a world-class flag carrier. Rebuilding Air India is a long journey: fleet renewal, training, service transformation, network expansion. Every great airline in history was built over decades, not quarters,” he says.“Significant progress has been made in the transformation journey. The narrow body aircrafts for domestic routes have been refurbished and have been receiving strong positive customer feedback. The wide body aircrafts are expected to complete refurbishment by end of FY28…. Currently, Air India has the best on-time arrival performance in India (June 2026). Our commitment is to give India a carrier that connects it to the world with pride, creates hundreds of thousands of jobs across aviation, tourism and logistics, and makes India a global aviation hub rather than a market others fly through,” he added.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

Watch ‘Did You Approve This?’: Rahul Gandhi BLASTS Amit Shah Over ‘Barbaric Assault’ On Student ProtestersPriyanka Gandhi Vadra was the first to target Joshi, making the remarks during the Lok Sabha debate on the Centre’s proposed amendments to the anti-paper leak law.”The prime minister appointed a new education minister, a person who expressed consent and even happiness over the release of those convicted of raping a pregnant woman,” the Wayanad MP alleged, prompting Union minister Pralhad Joshi and parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju to intervene and demand that she substantiate the claim.An irate Joshi demanded that Priyanka Gandhi Vadra be expelled from the House and asked her to apologise for the remark.However, she hit back saying that has a video of the minister backing the convicted rapists.”At a time when they are saying that they are bringing in women’s rights, women’s reservations and they are putting women in the forefront…It’s a very wrong message…I am going to authenticate. There is a video of that time. I will submit everything with proper procedure,” Priyanka Gandhi Vadra stated.Lok Sabha leader of opposition Rahul Gandhi backed his sister and remarked that there cannot a “filthier” person than one who defends release of convicted rapists.”Education minister of India – the BJP puts a man who is a defender of rapists. That is the most filthy type of man. There can be no flithier man than somebody who says that rapists need protection. That is the education minister of India today. It’s a strange reaction from the PM, that there are so many people in his cabinet, he could have chosen anyone of them. But he chooses a person who protects rapists. Quite amazing!,” Rahul Gandhi told reporters.The siblings appeared to be referring to the case of Bilkis Bano, who was gang-raped during the 2002 Gujarat riots. The 11 convicts were released in August 2022, triggering widespread outrage, before the Supreme Court quashed their release in January 2024.Speaking to a news channel in October 2022, Joshi had said the convicts’ release was in accordance with the law.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

She questioned whether such conduct befits students, adding, “We, too, have participated in student protests. But what kind of students are these, and what kind of obscene language are they using?”The actor-politician drew a contrast between the protesters and her own journey, pointing out that she has been self-reliant since age 16. “If these individuals need Supreme Court lawyers or legal counsel in the future, will their parents be able to afford it?” she asked. “They do not have the means to afford it themselves. We have been building our own careers since the age of sixteen. We have never been a burden on our parents.”Earlier on her Instagram stories, Ranaut had earlier called the protest reels “puke inducing” and used the term “Generation Gutter”. She dubbed Gen Z women as “so-called westernised Indian women” who are “not good at studies” and “so ugly and corrupt that they cannot be homemakers either.””If you try to live independently without accountability, you are just a distorted entity. Gutter chap,” she added.The Mandi MP’s remarks came as the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) wound up its 36-day agitation after the government conceded to its demands. Dharmendra Pradhan resigned as Union education minister and Pralhad Joshi was given additional charge of the ministry, paving the way for the protest’s withdrawal.Get the latest India News and Live updates.
