How can Congress eulogise the killers of our Sikh community?” Bhandari posted on X.”This is the real mindset of ‘Mohabbat Ki Dukkan’ (shop of love) of Rahul Gandhi and exposes the innate hate Congress has for the Sikh community!” Bhandari added, referring to a phrase used by Congress leader and leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha.The BJP spokesperson further demanded that Congress apologise for “insulting” the victims of the anti-Sikh riots and “rubbing” salt into the wounds of the survivors and victims’ families.Congress leader Udit Raj also described Kumar’s death as a “great loss” for the party.”It is a great loss for the Congress. He was a very senior Congress leader, and it will be difficult to fill the void… He did a lot of work, especially for the poor,” Raj stated.Sajjan Kumar died at Delhi’s Safdarjung Hospital on Thursday.”Sajjan Kumar was brought to Safdarjung Hospital by police with altered sensorium around 11 am. He was immediately admitted and resuscitation measures were initiated. Despite providing all necessary medical and life-support measures, he could not be saved and passed away at 12:30 pm,” the hospital’s statement read.”He was a known case of high blood pressure and Parkinson’s disease and had a history of multiple hospital admissions in the past,” the statement added.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesKumar was serving multiple life sentences after his conviction in cases linked to the 1984 anti-Sikh riots in Delhi.He was sentenced to life imprisonment by the Delhi High Court on December 17, 2018, in a case related to the killing of five Sikhs and the burning of a gurdwara during the anti-Sikh riots.He was also sentenced to life imprisonment by a Delhi court in February 2025 in another case relating to the killing of two Sikh men during the riots.Kumar resigned from the primary membership of the Congress after the 2018 conviction.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

The two countries will also look at “cross-border occupation”, where citizens of one nation farm, live on or hold land falling on the other side, across the 1,880km open border.The decision was taken at the 13th meeting of Survey Officials Committee, led by deputy chiefs of Nepal’s Survey Department and Survey of India, in Lucknow last week. Officials said the exercise will create a jointly verified technical record of affected areas, which can later help the two countries negotiate removal of encroachments, restoration of land or compensation.The issue returned to Nepal’s political centre stage after PM Balendra Shah told Parliament in May that “Nepal had also encroached on Indian land”. The remark came when Shah was questioned about Limpiyadhura, Lipulekh and Kalapani — territories under India which Nepal claims as its own — and triggered opposition protests. Nepal’s foreign ministry later clarified that Shah was referring to Dasgaja encroachments and cross-border occupation, not territorial claims.Nepal Survey Department spokesperson Dayanand Joshi said, “It has been decided to map cross-border occupation using drones.” He added, “This includes cross-border occupation and also encroachment of Dasgaja.”Border expert and former Survey Department director general Buddhi Narayan Shrestha said the decision could help settle disputes that have lingered for decades. “Indian farmers have encroached on the land of Nepali farmers along the border, and Nepali farmers have also encroached on the land of Indian farmers to some extent. I call this cross-border land grabbing,” he said.Shrestha said his 2005 field study found Indian farmers occupying Nepali land at 84 locations and Nepali farmers occupying Indian land at 27 locations. He said such disputes arose where boundary pillars were missing or mistakes were made during local land use. “It will take some time for technicians from Nepal and India to compile such a list,” Shrestha said. “Once the data is in hand, the decision on how to resolve the issue should be made through negotiations by higher-level officials sitting at the table.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelines”Shrestha cited Nepal’s past border demarcation with China, where local officials from Tibet and Nepal resolved similar disputes through sale windows and compensation. He said nearly 42 per cent of the 8,553 border pillars shown on maps are yet to be installed, making drone mapping crucial for preventing village-level disputes from turning into diplomatic flashpoints.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

They were naval forces of the IRGC,” the FSUI said in a post on X.The union added that the footage highlighted the risks faced by seafarers in the Strait of Hormuz, arguing that advisories and guidelines alone could not ensure their safety.“Innocent seafarers need the assured presence of naval forces to truly protect them,” the FSUI said.The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) recently said 166 Indian seafarers remained in the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz region, including 125 aboard six Indian-flagged vessels and 41 working on foreign-flagged ships.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesIn an update on August 4, the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways said 3,972 Indian seafarers had been repatriated from the Gulf region, highlighting the scale of the effort to bring them out of the conflict zone.India is the world’s second-largest supplier of seafarers after the Philippines, with 311,936 personnel accounting for 12.16 per cent of the global maritime workforce, according to the BIMCO-ICS Seafarer Workforce Report 2026. Indian officers account for 13.41 per cent of the global officer workforce, while 171,218 Indian ratings make up 11.29 per cent of the global ratings workforce.The large presence of Indian seafarers in the region has also resulted in casualties since the Iran war began. Last month, the MEA said Indian seafarers had recorded the highest number of fatalities among all nationalities in attacks on commercial shipping.The government later informed Parliament that 10 Indian seafarers were among the 16 Indian nationals killed in the Middle East conflict.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

We have fought wars with both of them. We have unsettled borders. So they will always remain on our radar as a threat, as a challenge,” PTI quoted Naravane as saying at a book launch event in New Delhi.However, he distinguished between the two, saying India’s immediate focus on Pakistan was driven largely by the continuing threat of terrorism, while describing China as a “competitor” rather than an “enemy.” He emphasised that he had “purposely” used the term “competitor” for China.”We have fought major wars with Pakistan, and because of their continued support to terrorism, our attention is towards our western borders. But I think we are very clear that in the long term and in the years to come, China is going to be our main competitor. And I purposely use the word competitor and not enemy,” Naravane said.Naravane, who was Chief of Army Staff during the 2020 Ladakh clashes with China and led India’s response, further stated that the two countries would be competitors across multiple domains, including politics, economics, trade and military affairs.”They are going to be our main competitor in all fields. Political, economic, trade, and of course military also. And wherever there is competition, there is always a little bit of conflict,” the retired Army general observed.He emphasised that India should seek to manage such differences through dialogue and diplomatic mechanisms rather than resorting to force.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelines”It is up to us to try to resolve those conflicts, those differences, through the mechanisms of talks, dialogues.
