NEW DELHI: The Trinamool Congress on Wednesday denied that there was any proposal or discussion about the Mamata Banerjee led party merging with the Congress at a meeting between leader of opposition Rahul Gandhi and TMC national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee on Wednesday.The meeting between Rahul and Abhishek at 10, Janpath came a day after TMC chairperson Mamata Banerjee met CPP chairperson Sonia Gandhi.Speculation about a merger being deliberated — which TMC and Congress members have termed “bogus” and “baseless” — grew as sources within the rebel TMC camp said it has managed support of at least 19 Lok Sabha MPs — two-thirds of the party’s strength of 28 — and will claim to be representing its parliamentary wing in the House. The development only adds to Mamata’s West Bengal poll setback.“The issue of merger of TMC with Congress and all other speculation around this is all rumours and incorrect. No such thing was discussed,” TMC sources said. Even Congress sources denied any discussion or move for merger.Congress spokesperson Jairam Ramesh made it clear on X that some news reports on what supposedly transpired in the meeting between Sonia and Mamata on Tuesday are “completely inaccurate”. “The meeting was very cordial and many personal matters were talked about, given the long relationship they have had,” he added.On Monday, in an about turn from her past hostility, former Bengal CM Mamata at a INDIA bloc meeting said Congress should take lead in the opposition’s fight against BJP. Photos were also shared by Congress where Mamata and Sonia were seen hugging each other and sharing a warm interaction.Building on the discussions between the TMC chief and CCP chairperson when they met on Tuesday, Rahul Gandhi and Abhishek Banerjee on Wednesday discussed developments in West Bengal and how the TMC and Congress can coordinate and work together to strengthen their presence in the state. They also discussed the 2029 Lok Sabha polls and how they could strengthen the INDIA bloc and opposition unity to counter the BJP.TMC shared a post on X with a photo from the meeting of Rahul and Abhishek. “The meeting reflected a shared commitment to safeguarding democracy, upholding Constitutional values and working for the welfare of every Indian. INDIA stands united,” the TMC said.Ardent supporters in the Mamata camp were dismissive of the possibility of a merger with the Congress saying that the former West Bengal CM invested her all in the TMC and for now seems determined to rebuild the party rather than give up.Meanwhile, the speculative reports saw Shiv Sena UBT leader Sanjay Raut suggest that parties like TMC and NCP (SP) which were once part of the Congress should reunite and strengthen the grand old party. News agency PTI reported Raut saying in Mumbai that such reunification was the “need of the hour”.Amid hectic developments, TMC suffered another setback on Wednesday, as its Rajya Sabha MP Sushmita Dev resigned from the party and the Upper House. She is the second RS MP to quit. On Monday, Sukhendu Sekhar Roy had resigned from the Upper House and TMC after levelling allegations against the party.A former Congress leader who had joined the TMC a few years ago, Dev, also met Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma at his residence in Delhi triggering speculation that she was headed for the BJP.While Dev refused to make any comment on Mamata Banerjee, on reports of her joining the BJP, she told reporters, “when I take a decision I will let you know”. She asserted that she has resigned due to “personal and political reasons”. “I don’t want to be in a situation where I am in two boats at the same time. That is not the right way to do it…because.. the family background and upbringing I have, I have never stayed in one party and served another party,” she said.Get the latest India news and live updates.

The government condemned a US attack on a commercial vessel off the coast of Oman on Wednesday that left 3 Indian crew members missing, while also officially lodging a protest with the US embassy here. There were 24 Indian seafarers onboard the Palau-flagged Settebello, which was struck by precision munitions while transiting the Gulf of Oman, out of which 21 have been rescued.It is learnt that the Ministry of External affairs (MEA) additional secretary (Americas) Nagaraj Naidu summoned US charge d’affaires Jason Meeks and delivered a formal demarche protesting what was the second attack in the past few days by US forces on a shipping vessel with many Indian crew members on board.Unlike the ship that was targeted earlier, Settebello is not blacklisted by the US Office of Foreign Assets Control, a point that Naidu made in the extended meeting that started at 8.45 pm and lasted for almost 25 minutes. India had not condemned the first attack. The Indian official sought an end to the targeting of commercial shipping, underscoring India’s point that lives of seafarers are important.India had in April summoned Iranian ambassador Mohammad Fathali to protest an attack on Indian tankers transiting the Strait of Hormuz. The MEA said after the latest US strike on Wednesday that continuing incidents of attacks on shipping in the region are deeply worrisome and a direct result of the ongoing conflict in the region.“We reiterate our call for immediate de-escalation of tensions, and the conclusion of ongoing negotiations for a diplomatic solution so that peace and stability can return to the region,” said the ministry.The government again underlined that the targeting of commercial shipping and civilian infrastructure in the region must end, and free and unimpeded navigation and commerce through the international waterways in the region in keeping with international law must be restored at the earliest. On the missing Indians, the Indian embassy in Oman is closely monitoring the situation and proactively coordinating with the Omani authorities in the ongoing search and rescue operation, said the ministry.The attack took place days after another US “disabling” of another Palau-flagged vessel with 24 Indians onboard. All of them were rescued with help from Oman authorities. The sanctioned vessel was trying to evade the US blockade when it was hit. The US had imposed the blockade on April 13, in response to Iranian restrictions on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.US Central Command (CENTCOM) said that a US aircraft fired precision munitions into the ship’s engine room after the crew repeatedly failed to comply with directions from American forces. “CENTCOM forces have disabled eight non-compliant vessels, redirected 134 ships that complied, and allowed 42 vessels supporting humanitarian aid to pass since initiating the blockade on April 13,” it said in a statement.The ship that was targeted on Wednesday was a chemical/oil products tanker which reported an engine room fire 20 nautical miles northeast of Oman’s port of Sohar, said the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations agency, according to a Reuters report. Omani authorities responded to the partially laden tanker’s distress messages.Get the latest India news and live updates.

The govt there should know better than to use force to handle public grievances and demands in this manner,” Mirwaiz said.“When people take to the streets to express their concerns, it is a signal that they seek to be heard. It is the responsibility of those in authority to listen, engage and peacefully resolve the matter, rather than allow it to escalate into violence, arbitrary arrests and loss of life. Hope and pray that better sense prevails and the matter is handled with maturity, while addressing the concerns of the people,” he added.National Conference president Farooq Abdullah, too, called for peace in POK, and prayed that “people’s troubles should get over.”POK has been gripped by unrest in recent days after authorities banned the Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) and intensified a crackdown against its members, leading to violent clashes between protesters and security forces. JAAC has been demanding abolition of 12 seats in the 53-member POK assembly reserved for refugees from Kashmir who settled in Pakistan after 1947. It argues that these seats have historically allowed major Pakistani political parties to influence govt formation in Muzaffarabad.Get the latest India news and live updates.

They were declared dead on arrival, Srinagar-based Army spokesperson Lt Col Manoj Sahu said.He didn’t elaborate beyond saying that the explosion occurred in the Kamalkote area of the Uri sector. Till late in the evening, there was no official statement from the Army disclosing the circumstances of the blast.Elsewhere in J&K, state police and CAPF companies carried out a comprehensive joint mock drill in Pahalgam in preparation for the Amarnath Yatra starting July 3.

We are fighting this battle because we still have faith in constitutional institutions,” Natarajan told reporters.The rejection of Natarajan’s nomination has turned the tables for the Congress in Madhya Pradesh.The BJP, which holds 164 seats in the 230-member Assembly, was already assured of winning two of the three Rajya Sabha seats. The Congress, with 64 MLAs, had sufficient numbers to elect Natarajan to the third seat.With her nomination rejected, the BJP’s third candidate, Mahesh Kewat, is now in a much stronger position, raising the possibility that the party could win all three Rajya Sabha seats unless the Congress secures relief from the Election Commission or the courts.Congress leaders have accused the BJP of engineering a ‘constitutional conspiracy’ to capture the third seat despite lacking the numbers for a straightforward victory, while the BJP insists that election officials merely followed legal requirements regarding the disclosure of pending cases.Get the latest India news and live updates.
